HIGHER COURT DECISIONS.

On Monday morning the Supreme
Court handed down an order in the
matter of the petition Of J. B. Robi-
son for an appeal from the decision of
the Superior Court in N. l.. Camp
bells estate. Mr.. Robson first
took an appeal from the decree Of
the Orphans Court Of Columbia
county, and the case was argued
in the Superior Court at Scranton
several months ago. That court
dismissed the appeal, and then Mr..
Robson presented his petition for
an appeal to the Supreme Court,
and this was refused, which ends
the case.
The Superior Court has reversed
Judge Little i'll the case of Rose
Gillespie VS.. l.. L. Agnew. The
plaintiff levied on goods for a debt
Of Aguew, and the latter's wife
claimed that the goods belonged to
her and not to her husband. The
court decided against Mrs. Agnew
and she took an appeal, and her
appeal is sustained.

BARN DAMAGED BY FIRE,

Only the prompt response and
gallant work OF the Winona and
Friendship Fire companies prevent
ed a disastrous conhagration Tues
day afternoon. The fire broke out
in barn located in Whitman Alley
a.short distance above Fourth street,
owned by Mrs. A. X. Riddle and
occupied by a. J. Beagle. The
mows were filled with hay. and the
fire Notwithstanding the fact that
the Winona boys were Oh the scene
in less than four minutes after the
alarm was given, had gained con-
siderable headway. The fremen
realized that the many adjunct
buildings would be destroyed un-
less they could check the blaze.
Two streams Of water were kept
playing on the burning structure,
and by hard work and per severance
the fremen succeeded in extinguish
ing the flames before any of the
other buildings were damaged to
any extent. Just how the fire
originated is not known. Next to
the barn is w. +. Hartman S plan
ing mill and the general impression
appears TO be that it was started by
a spark from the stack.
The barn was practically ruined,
but the loss is covered by insurance.
Mr.. Beagle sustained loss of about
5000, but he too will be partly re-
imbursed. There were two COWS
in the barn, but they were gotten
out, not until the building was
wrapt in flames, however.
The fire attracted a big crowd OF
people, and everybody was enthusi-
astic in their praise Of the excellent
work of the firemen. You will
travel a good many miles before you
can find a more efficient voluntary
fire department than here.

Mangled by Car Wheels
William w. Smith Falls From e.

Crushed.
Death Follows in Two Hours.

William w. Smith, mail carrier
betweei the post Office and the
Main Street crossing of the Blooms
burg & Sullivan Railroad sustain
ed Injuries on the d. l.. & w.
Railroad Monday morning which
resulted in his death at his home OH
East Sixth Street about two hours
later. He boarded the b. & S.
engine at the Fifth Street crossing,
and rode to the d. l.. & w. Sta
ton. He attempted to jump off
while the train was still in motion
and in doing SO slipped and fell
against the platform. He was
thrown back under the lower step
Of the passenger coach and rolled
for some distance. He called loud
ly for help, and in attempting to
extricate himself his leg was caught
under the wheel and terribly crush
ed. When the train was stopped
the body was wedged beneath the
step of the coach. ]. r. Fowler
who was at the station waiting to
take the d. l.. & w. train for
Wilkes Barre, assisted in pulling
the man out.
Doctors B. f, Gardner and J. S.
John responded to a call and the
injured man was removed 10 his
home where upon examination it
was found that in addition to his
leg being crushed, his back bone
and three ribs on his right were
| broken. The man was conscious
for a few minutes after the acci-
dent, and shook hands and talked
with several of those who were
there. He sank into a comatose
state however, and died without
uttering a word to his wife or
family.
The deceased was about fifty
years of age and leaves wife and
four children, together with three
brothers, Lloyd of Bloomsbury and
Robert and George of Berwick. He
had been in the employ of the B,

and had always performed his
duties faithfully. His many friends
are deeply touched at his untimely
death.

CHORAL SOCIETY.
Will give a Concert May 2S.
More Members Needed.

The Choral Society. organized
several months ago, has been hold
ing rehearsals every Monday night
in the Normal Auditorium, under
the direction of Miss Comba. They
have been working thus far on the
Cantata of St. Cecilia very tuneful
composition, and at the meeting on
Monday evening it was decided to
engage the services of DR.. Mason OF
Wilkes Barre, who is conductor
OF high reputation, and to give a
concert on the evening of Thursday
May 2Sth, under his direction.
The object of the society is t.
cultivate and encourage musical
tas.e. Bloomsbury is not lacking in
good material for large chorus,
and the only trouble seems to be to
get the singers sufficiently interest
ed in the project. Thus far, while
the attendance has been fair at each
rehearsal, it has not been regular,
and this has made the progress
slow. The society offers a tine op-
portunity for those who wish to i'm
prove in singing, at very low cost,
the membership fee being only ten
cents a month. There are nearly
eighty names on the list of members,
but only about one fourth of these
attend regularly, and some OF them
have not yet appeared at single
rehearsal.
Now that a definite object is in
view it is hoped that all will attend
regularly, and that many new
names will be added Ghe church
choirs alone should supply at least
fifty members, if all would join!
Any information concerning mem
bership can be obtained of O. H.
Yetter, Frank Colley, Mrs. J. K.
Miller, or of DR. Welsh, Miss Comba
and Mrs. Sutliff at the Normal.
Several efforts have heretofore
been made to organize choral 50
ciety here, but they died natural
death after a few months trial, be-
cause the members treated the re-
hearsals simply as place to &C
when they had nothing else to do.
No organization can succeed that
wav. There must be a determined
and united effort, andthe society car
be made a grand success. When q
stranger comes here and wants g
chorus for public entertainment
large part of the proceeds of which
he puts in his pocket and carries
away from town, he has no trouble
to get it. Why should a chorus
that proposes to keep the money a
home languish for lack of support

Still a Mystery.

The McAndrews murder mystery
is no nearer solution today than
it was week ago. Detectives have
been keeping strict watch over a
couple of fellows VINO it is believed
know something about the crime
but nothing has as yet developed.
District Attorney Duy has not
given the case up by any means,
and, while he has learned practi-
cally nothing that can be used as
evidence, he is still confident, and
believes that the guilty parties will
soon be caught.

THE CONVENTION.

THE CONVENTION.
The convention met at the Court
House Monday afternoon. That
everything moved along smoothly
and peaceably is shown by the fact
that it required less than twenty
five minutes to transact the busi-
ness. This includes the time taken
up by cheering and applause. The
business of the meeting began with
the reading of the convention call
by II. A NJ Killip. Then County
Chairman A. w. Duy made few
remarks. Prof. G.. L, Wilbur was
elected chairman, w. A. Butt and
c. J. Fisher secretaries and c. c.
Yetter reading clerk.
The naming of ticket was next
in order. Here it is, for sheriff
Col. Jenkin Evans of Berwick and
for Jury commissioner Emory d,
Hageubuch OF West Scott. Clark
d. Eaton of Berwick was named as
delegate to the state convention
with c. c. Yetter of Bloomsbury
as alternate.
Mr.. Eaton in a few words
thanked the convention for the
honor conferred upon him and pro-
missed a faithful service. The
county chairman was empowered
to fill any vacancies that may arise
on the ticket, after which J. l..
Townsend offered the following
resolutions which were adopted;

PRINCE DAVID COMPLAINS.

Prince David Kawananakoa started
the ball rolling, which caused sus-
pension of the trial until Monday, by
calling attention to the article in the
Advertiser. He felt that it was i'm
proper for newspaper to comment on
a jury engaged in trying a case, and
although the case had gone half
through he felt his opinion was settled
and he could not sit longer on the case.
He thought the phrase, only one white
man." was an insult to the rest of the
Jury.
