OLD LADY
ROASTED TO DEATH

WILLTAMSPORT, Pa, Oct. 2S. A
mania, caused by the infrmities of
old age, to burn paper in the kitchen
stove was the cause of Mrs Katharine
Jonas, aged Sc years, dying most
horrible death here this morning.
The old lady resided with her
daughter, Mrs. John Bourman, at 9O9
Franklin street. FOR some time past
she would in spite of her daughter
protestations gather all the old paper
around the house and throw il in the
front of the kitchen stove, watching
the flames until the last spark had
died away with childish satisfaction,
experiencing several narrow escapes
from burning to death. Only last
week the timely arrival and prompt
action of her daughter prevented such
a fate.
This morning Mrs. BouTman went
to market, leaving her mother at home
alone. When Mrs. Bourman returned
home about nine o'clock she saw smoke
but at first thought it was a roast she
had left in the oven burning, Upon
entering the kitchen she discovered
smoke issuing from the pantry, the
door of which was closed Going in
to the pantry she found her mother
lying dead on the floor with nearly
every stitch of her clothing burned
from her body. So badly was the old
lady burned that there was scarcely
an inch of her entire body that was
not roasted to a crisp.
The front of the stove showed that
she had been burning paper, when no
doubt her clothing caught fire. 1t is
thought that she went to the pantry
to get water but died before she reach
ed the spigot

BALLOT
RECEIVED

The election will take place on
Tuesday next, November Bird. In this
county there is no contest for any Of
the offices except that of Sheriff. The
candidates for the SherIfFaIty are losing
no time this week and are making it
a point to see as many of the voters
personally as possible.
An official ballot conforming with
the law as amended in 1903 has been
received at the Commissioners office.
Although in the main the new ballot
resembles the old it differs somewhat
in arrangement and wording, which
may leave the voter less liable to make
mistakes
In the old ballot the first paragraph
Of instructions told how to proceed to
indicate a vote for each candidate.
The second paragraph explained that
marking within the circle at the head
of the columns would be equivalent
to a mark opposite every name which
followed in the column.
In the amended ballot the arrange
ment is such as to lead the eye direct
to the provisions for straight voting
ana the first paragraph of instructions
sets forth
"T) vote a straight party ticket
mark a cross in the square opposite
the name of the party of your choice
in the first column.
The second and third paragraphs
read:
A cross mark in the square Op-
posite the name of any candidate in
diCates vote for tmat candidate. "
"The voter may insert in the blank
spaces at the bottom Of each group the
name of any person whose name is not
printed on the ballot for when he de-
sires to vote -
The new ballot is about the size of
the old and contains the names of the
following parties with their candid
atcs: Republican, Democratic, Social
ist, Citizons', Independence, Labor,
and Prohibition. Names of local can
didates are printed on the ballot as
follows:
Sheriff Republican, George Rudy
Sechler; Democratic, George Maiers
Prohibition, Levi b. SechIer

HAS SURRENDERED
TO THE POLICE

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-Daniel Weis-
enberg, the travelling salesman whose
name has been mentioned in counec-
tion with the murder of Miss Mabel
BechteI, of Allentown, Pa, surreud-
cred himself at police headquarters
early this morning Weiseuberg was
accompanied by Joseph Stock, local
cigar manufacturer, who has known
him for some time
Weisenberg said he had not heard of
the death of Miss BochUol until late
last night and as soon as he ascertain
ed that he was wanted he came to
police headquarters Detective Ser
geant Knause, Of Allentown, who was
i'm Newark looking for Woisenberg,
came here this morning and placed
him under arrest.
Weisenberg said Il saw Miss Mabel
Bechtol for few minutes Sunday
night at her home in Allentown l
did not take her carriage riding on
Monday at any time nor did l see or
hear Of her on that day. At the time
she was supposed to have gone riding
with me | was in barber shop i'm
South Bethlehem, where | live.
= can prove by my order book every
place that | visited on Monday. Dur
ing the forenoon | remained in South
Bethlehem. About / O'Clock l started
for Allentown and attended to bust
ness there until about 10 80 or II
O'Clock p. m, when | returned to my
home in South Bethlehem
"On Tuesday morning l left there
for Newark, n. J. Last night | came
to this city.
Weisenberg was arraigned in court
this morning. He voluntarily agreed
to go to Allentown at once. He was
turned over to an Allentown detective
and Will leave for Pennsylvania on
the u 40 p. IN. train.
Allentown, Pa, Oct 28.-The police
are most reticent as to what has been
done in the case of Mabel Bechtel
whose body was found in an alley near
her home yesterday morning. 1t is
known, however, that they are not by
any means idle, and developments are
momentarily expected.
The surrendering of Weisenberg to
the New York police and his story to
them that he had not seen the girl on
the day on which she was murdered,
has added mystery to the case, and
efforts are now being made to sub
stantiato or disprove his statements.
His arrival in Allentown is awaited
with much interest, as, should he be
eliminated from the case. as many of
his frieuds believe he will, the police
will have to look elsewhere for in
| formation.
Alfred Eckstein, the girls fance,
and hcr brother, who were summoned
by the police yesterday were released
| after close examination.

Saved FROM THE knife
Cal cura Solvent, the Wonderful New MsdI-
cine Will Dissolve and Expel Stone and
Gravel from the System. Your Money
Back II Il Does Not Cure.

A surgical operation is no longer neces-
sary for the removal Of Stone and Gravel
from the Kidneys and Bladder, since the
mem medicine, Cal-cura Solvent, discovered
by the well-knowu physician and surgeon,
the late Dr. David Kennedy, quickly dis
solves and swiftly eypels Stone, Red and
White Gravel, thus freeing the patient Of
the inflammation and pain, caused by the
presence Of these lime formations. Better
than all, Cal-cura Solvent prevents the
formation Of Stone and Gravel and all uric
acid conditions of the blood. The medical
profession has accepted and heartily en-
dOrsed the principal upon which DR.. Ken
uedy based his claims for Cal-cura Solvent.
If your druggist does not have Cal-cura
Solvent, write to the Cal-cura Company,
Rondout N Y. but ask your druggist first.
II 90 bottle. Only one size.
Guarantee: Your druggist will return
your money if Cal-cura fails TO cure, and
The Cal-cura Company will pay the drug
gist. Remember, Cal-cura Solvent cures
$50 Of all cases of Kidney, Bladder and
Liver disorders.

Figures. Fact and Fun.

One of the wealthiest and most pow
erful theatrical trusts in this country
built up for its promoters large for
tunes by producing plays with small
casts, requiring but few actors to in
terpret them, and at that perhaps not
more than a couple of players of cali
bre in the company, the support in many
instances being little better than anna
teurs. 1t is different with a minstrel
company like John W. Vogel's, to ap-
pear here on Tuesday, November 10th.
The manager of the Big and Best
by Test proves his facts and figures
by a MONDAY parade, thereby demon
strating the strength of the company.
Seeing is believing" The lockers
on know the stars when they see them
and they are there in person, The by
stander can count and it would be use
less to advertise fifty performers and
have half the number. The parade
would publish the cheat and the decep-
tion would react. The funmakers are
in the front rank, and you can be sure
of the fun of Arthur Ribgy, Lew Ben
edict, Arthur Crawford, Tommy Hayes,
Bowman Deaves and Charles Carmody
as You are of their presence in the
parade.

OFF YEARS

Next Tuesday a general election Will
be held in the State OF Pennsylvania. BE
cause no governor nor president Is to
beyelected, the stake by many is con
sidered to be a small one 1t is com
monty considered an of year election
by way of distinction from presid-
entail election. But when wisely and
well considered there are no off years.
What are to be chosen this year. First
a State Treasurer Every tax payer is
or should be interested in the choice
of a person who controls the care and
disposition of millions of public funds
each year 1t should be borne In mind
that the State of Pennsylvania has
never lost a dollar through the care
lessness, Indifference or default of a
Republican treasurer. There is an Au-
ditor General to be elected. This Off
Ger settles and collects the taxes from
corporations. The reason that the
State Treasury Is now full to overflow
ing, is that a Republican Auditor Gen
eral is in Office and strictly enforces
all the tax laws. School districts are
not obliged now to wait almost year
for the appropriations due them. You
will no doubt have already concluded
that you are vitally interested in the
result of the election next Tuesday.
There is no doubt as to the election of
Mathues and Snyder, but this is not
enough The democrats acknowledging
defeat in advance, have put up no
fight in the hope that Republicans
will, therefore not vote and the maj
ority in Pennsylvania may be kept un-
der one hundred thousand. Such a re
suit would be heralded abroad as re-
buke to President Roosevelt and quot
ed as an evident decadence in Republi-
can zeal and principles. Then there
are two Judges of the Superior Court
to be elected. 1t is very important
that this court should be controlled by
republican policy. Not that laws should
be interpreted upon partisan basis,
but it has been proven many times IN
the past that democratic judges in our
higher courts can not, in the interpre-
tation of our laws, rise above partisan
ship and meet the issues on the broad
er grounds of craftsmanship.
Come out to vote next Tuesday be
cause there are no of years You, the
average man, are more interested in
the result than you are in a govern
or's or presidential election. 1t strikes
closer home.
