A TRINITY OF EVILS.
Cured by Cal cura Solvent, the Great New
Medicine, After Other Treatment Had Failed.
Your Money Back II II Does Not Cure.

Mr.. Martin Montgomery, of silvara, Pa,
formerly of Roxbury, N. Y, writing to DR..
David Kennedy, of Kennedy Row, said
Your neao medicine, Cal-cura Solvent,
is wonderful. 1t cured me of liver and kid.
ney troubles, and rheumatism, after lot OF
weary dosing with things that did no good
1t is record breaker and no mistake"
As in Mr.. Montgomery's case, rheuma-
tism is often, indeed almost always, COM
phcated with kidney and liver trouble
II Is because Cal-cura Solvent acts on the
kidneys and liver and at the same time ex-
pels uric acid from the blood, that it is such
reliable remedy for rheumatism and the
attendant disorders. II cures by removing
the cause, therefore the cure is permanent
safe and sure.
If your druggist does not have Cal-cura
Solvent, write to the Cal-cura Company,
Rondout, NY; but ask your druggist nrsV'
$l.O0 bottle. Only one size.
Guarantee: Your druggist will retur.,
your money if Cal-cura fails to cure, anu
The Cal-cura Company will pay the drug,
gist. Remember, Cal-cura Solvent cures
98% of all cases of Kidney, Bladder anu
Liver disorders.

Took Advantage of Their Absence.

During the absence of a party OF
young people who were occupying
the zimmerman homestead a few
miles below Catawissa. Saturday
evening burglars broke into the
house and made away with nearly
all the young peoples clothing and
personal effects. The robbers made
a clean sweep and several of the
party were obliged to borrow duds
in which to get home. The camp
ers were Misses Helen Ford, May
zimmerman, Amy Northup, Ralph
zimmerman and Edward Ford, OF
Scranton, and Miss Polly Kinds, of
Jersey City.
The robbers had things all their
own way as the entire party had
gone to attend the Saturday even
ing dance at Catawissa. Their sur
prise and indignation upon reach
ing the house after the dance to
find their clothing and everything
stolen, can be better imagined than
described. Beside the clothing
there were taken SIS in cash, the
two gold watches, a gun metal
watch, two gold lockets and chains
several gold pens and some other
pieces of jewelry. There is NO
clue to the robbery.

State Veterinarian Will Make investigation a

The Department of Agriculture has
received no official notification of the

field.
From the description of the disease
Assistant Secretary Martin gives it as
his opinion that the cattle had been
feeding upon some poisonous weed.
TIE only way to ascertain the actual
cause was an analysis OF the stomach
of the affected stock.
A report is expected from DR..
Pearson within few days.

Second Trolley Victim
fContinued from rst page |

Cured, Mrs. Hulshizer, William
Wanich, a conductor on the trailer,
Ray H. ffman, the conductor Of the
car, w. H. Cook, Lemuel Edgar,
Con Cronin, Frank Hummei, and
Hairy Hartman, passengers OH the
car, all Of which served to dispel
the suicide belief, the following
verdict was rendered.
1--WE find that Herman Walter
met his death accidentally by being
run over by car on the Columbia
& Montour Electric Railway in
Centre township. August 2S, 1908,
about 6:5o p. IN that conductor
Hoffman and motorman Rambo are
exonerated. The jury also recon-
mends that the cars should be
equipped with tenders or some
safety device whereby accidents of
this kind may be averted."
Beside the money above referred
to there was also found two bank
books. One showed a credit OF
S52S.I1 in the North West Savings
Fund of Philadelphia and the other
a credit of s3,o2. 10 in the Philadel-
phia Savings Fund.
The initial move to locate re
latives o, friends of the dead man
was made by. Coroner Sharpless on
Saturday. He received word
from Philadelphia stating that other
than a sister-in-law or step sister
residing in Germany, Walters has
no known living relatives.
H. H. Roger, Of Rebersburg ar
rived at Catawissa, Monday even
ing He has known Walters fol-
upwards of twenty years. When
not on the road selling jewelry,
Walters made his home with him,
and his personal property is still
there. He had never heard Walters
speak of having any relatives.
1t was Mr.. Rogers intention tc
take the body back to Rebersburg
but finding all the arrangement:
for the funeral had been made he
decided to bury the body here.
The funeral services, simple, but
beautiful and impressive, were helt
in the Old Presbyterian church
Tuesday afternoon. There were
no mourners and but few attendants
but this did not detract from the
solernnity of the occasion. DR.
Hemingway's words, as he referred
to the great uncertainty of life
created marked impression on hi
hearers. The deceased was know
to have been a christian man. H,

From the place where he wa
known come only words oil kindnes

sudden and tragic end. In closin.
DR.. Hemingway said that he per
haps is happier where he now is

Rev. J. f. Byers of the Lutheran
Church followed with a few ap
propriate remarks. A quartet,
composed Of Mrs. H. c. Pegg, Mrs
Harry Barton, A. N. Yost anc
Frank Eyer rendered two selection
after which the remains were born,
from the church to New Rosemon
Cemetery, where they were laid t,

Warrant SERVED ON
Y. N. C. A. SECRE AIRY

Deputy Game Warden F. A Daniels
arrived here Friday morning from Tuck
er county with warrant for L. P. Rid
die, secretary of the Young Mems Chris
tian association, and S. L. Boggess,
charging them with n violation of the
game laws of the state.
The paper was executed by Constable
McClung, and Afcssrs Riddle and Bog
CESS appeared in Squire Samuel w. Cor
don's court and gave bond for their APP
pearance in Tucker county for trial.
The warrant was issued July 90 last,
and at the instance of Rev. Engle, pas
tor of the Presbyterian church at Parsons.
The game warden appears in the COM
plaint as the complainant, but he states
that Rev. Engle was the informant and
insisted upon the issuance of the paper.
In the month of July Messrs. Riddle
and Borgess. and others formed camp
ing party that went to Tucker county
for an outing, and they erected their
camp distance from Parsons. They
had among them number of singers,
and the first Sunday they were there
they sang in the Methodist church. This
was followed by an invitation TO sing
the next Sunday in the Presbyterian
chruch. The invitation was accepted
but the Friday previous to the day for
keeping the engagement, the leader of
the choir and one of the singers were
called home, thus breaking up the choir.
Word was Immediately sent to the min
ister that the engagement could not be
kept on that account, and he excused
them.
Sunday, according to the claim Of the
minister, he met Messrs. Riddle and Bog
CESS ON the public highway near Parsons
shortly after the church hour with game
in their possession, and carrying guns.
The deputy game warden, when asked
why there had been such a long delay in
serving the paper, stated that it would
scarcely have been executed at all if it
had not been for the agitation by the
minister, who persisted in his demands
that they Represented.
interested parties assert that it is
matter of spite work ON the part of
Rev. Engle.
The law on the subject was passed by
the recent legislature, with the provision
that it was to go into effect 90 days after
its passage. or May % last It was not
generally known that such law had
been passed, and NIessrs. Riddle and Bog
CESS were not familiar with it, or had
they knowledge that law OF that sort
was in existence. As a consequence
there could scarcely haze been a wilful
violation committed by them.
Their bonds were fixed at 300 each
and the date for the trial ut Hambietcn.
Tucker county, was set for October 8.
The justice took their rccognizancc.
