PASSING OF THE VETERANS
Time is Thinning Out the Ranks of Civil
War Soldiers
During the Last Year Over Thirty Thousand
Answered the Final Roll calI-Death Rate
Increases Each Succeeding Year

Time is thinning the ranks of
the soldiers OF the Civil War. 1t
is over forty years since Lee SUR
rendered at Appomatox, and boys
who wore the blue then are old men
now. The commissioner Of pen
sions states that during the fiscal
year ended June goth no less than
80, 324 survivors of the war for the
Union passed from earth. The re-
ports of the Grand Army of the
Republic, show that o,I51 of its
members have died since the last
national encampment. These fig
ures do not reveal all the ravages
made by the grim destroyer among
the veterans during the year. The
pension rolls, although the high
water mark Of 900, 900 names was
reached last January, cannot furn-
ish the information necessary to
accurately determine the losses by
death among the old soldiers. 1t
is estimated that there are 200, 900
soldiers who have never applied for
p.nsions, and many of those who
did apply were rejected. The
Grand Army of the Republic num-
bers 235,455, but as Commander.in-
Chief King says, there are very
many survivors Of the Union arm
les of the Civil War who still hold
aloof and fail to avail themselves of
their eligibility to join the Grand
Army OF the Republic" 1t is
wholly probable that to the deaths
shown by the pension rolls during
the past year 1000 more may be
safely added.
With each succeeding year the
death rate is bound to increase. In
very short time all those who
fought in the great conflict of 1861
s will have reached the scrip,ural
span of three score and ten. Then
death is certain to work still great
er ravage than did the foe at Antie-
tam, Shiloh, ChicamauGa, Gettys-
burg, the Wilderness and countess
other fields where carnage heaped
high its slaught rous ranks" Men
of this generation will see the day
when the last survivor of the arm
les of the Union will join the host
on the other Shore 1t is the way
of all the earth. but their last days
are soothed by the knowledge tha'
their sacrifices were not in vain,
that their country was not migrate
iul, and that their labors live after
them in the Union of the states.

HIGHWAYMEN INFESl SUNBURY
Outrages Are Becoming a Common Occurrence
IN That City.

Hold-ups, robberies and other
out-rages are becoming so common
an occurrence in Sunbury that many
of the citizens are carrying firearms
to protect themselves against the
criminals that infest that city.
a number of hold-ups occurred
Sunday night, but the highwaymen
did not succeed in robbing any of
their inten1ed victims.
The hold.up men selected the
Fifth ward. Between ten and eleven
O'Clock a blacksmith named Smith,
employed at the Susquehanna con-
verting works, was returning to
his home in the fifth ward. At the
corner OF Railroad avenue and Julia
street two colored men and a white
partner attacked him and made a
demand for his watch and money.
They knocked him down and han
died him roughly in a scuffle, but
he managed to regain his feet and
get away before they were able to
secure his money and valuables.
Reports OF hold-ups in the Fifth
ward were rife Monday morning.
According to one story, German
employed at the converting works
was relieved of his watch and forty
dollars in cash, while man named
Rable is said to have lost twenty
five dollars and his gold time piece.
Neither of these stories could be
confirmed upon investigation, but
it was learned that two prominent
railroad men were stopped by sus'
picious characters who inquired the
hour, but they did not tarry and
were not molested.
William Christ Of Northumber-
land, a motorman on the Sunbury
and northumberland trolley line,
was another victim. Christ was
walking to his home, after making
his last trip and at the Island en-
trance to the second railroad bridge,
he was stopped by a hurley man,
armed with a stout club, who de-
manded him to hand over his
money. Christ took flight and got
away without losing any of his
cash.

COURT MATTERS

The regular October argument
day which usually comes IN the
first Monday of the month, has been
postponed until the first week in
November, as Judge Staples must
hold his own argument court in
October. Any pressing matters,
however, he will hear at chambers.
Associate Judges Fox and Krick-
baum will sit on October end, and
will hear such matters as may be
disposed of by them.
Anthony Kinkade who prosecut-
ed Mrs. Sarley of Berwick for keep
ing a disorderly house, resulting i'll
her acquittal and the costs being
put on Kinkade, made all applica-
tion to revoke the sentence and re.
imburse the prosecutor for the costs
paid by him. Judge Staples on
Tuesday filed an opinion refusing
the application.
Among other things the Judge
says: 1T was the Courts opinion
at the time it passed sentence upon
the Prosecutor that the verdict was
a Just one. Because man is a
special officer of the Pennsylvania
Society to Protect Children from
Cruelty does not exempt him from
ordinary care. 1t was his duty to
be fairly we'll satisfied of the guilt
of the defendant before causing her
arrest, and after her arrest to have
furnished the information as to the
witnesses as would have enabled
the proper officers to have secured
their attendance in Court. This he
did not do. If his witnesses were
not in attendance, an application to
Court would have procured their
attendance by attachment. Per
haps this will be a good lesson to
the officer, and hereafter he will
move with more care, and take
more pains in presentation OF a
prosecution once commenced.

Oonyngham School Board.

The trouble between the oppos-
ing factions of the school board of
Conyngham township was aired in
court on Tuesday. The hearing
was brought up on proceedings to
oust the directors for failing to per-
form their duties by neglecting to
appoint teachers for the schools.
An opportunity had been given
them by Judge Staples to get to-
gether, but they failed to do so,
William c. Johnston Esq. repre-
sen:ed the petitioners, and stated
the case in a nutshell when he said:
what the Cain faction wants"
" is to put out of Office efficient
teachers who have served for years,
and who have the highest certifi-
Gates and put in less competent
teachers, all Of which is done at the
behest of little political boss over
there who is trying to use the
schools for political purposes.
Judge Staples gave each side a
chance to be heard, and it appears
from what they said that it is i'm
possible to come to an agreement,
and the court will no doubt oust the
whole board and put others in their
places.

G. A. &, Supper

Immense crowds attended the
chicken supper of the G.. A. r. at
Kleim's grove on Friday and Sat
urday evenings. Only thirty chick
ems were prepared the first night,
and they were all gone by seven
O'Clock. After that hour the troll
leys went down packed to the steps.
On Saturday evening over seventy
chickens were prepared, and these
were all gone before the evening
was over. The trolley company
ran extra cars on Saturday, but it
was after midnight before all got
home.

THE BISHOPS CHAPEL.

1t is perhaps not generally known
that Bishop Darlington is having
one of the rooms on the second
floor of his handsome residence, in
Williamsport, remodeled into a
little chapel for public worship,
where any one can repair daily for
prayers.
The chapel is in cozy room on
the east side of the residence, and
it is being fitted up at an expense
of about a thousand dollars, and
when the work is finished, which
will be soon, it will be complete in
every detail, including altar, brass
altar rails and comfortable pews,
while the room will be brightly
illumined with electric lights. Ca
thedral stained glass windows have
already been put i'll place, as has
also the altar, and the pews are now
being completed Pictures will deco.
rate the walls, and the chapel will
be one of the finest of the kind in
the country, 1t is the Bishops own
church, and is where he will wor-
ship daily when at home, with any
who care to attend the services.
The residence Of Bishop Dar-
lingtou was formerly the home OF
the late James V. Brown, a brother
of Mrs. H. II. Grotz of Bloomsbury.
Bishop Darlington has been a
busy man since he came into this
new Diocese of Harrisburg. The
Diocese embraces $1,000 square
miles of territory, twice the size of
the state Of New Jersey, and he has
averaged probably 1000 miles A
week travelling by train, stage
coach and other conveyances, in
going about and getting acquainted,
together with performing his Off
cial duties. He is thoroughly de-
lighted with Williamsport and the
cordial reception he has met with.
In five or six weeks he and his
family will leave for Harrisburg for
the winter, and much attention will
then be given to the southern sec
ton of the Diocese.

Judge Staples on Tuesday gave
the custody of the Rubenstein
children to their father, taking

perly for them, or they will be
taken from him, and the children
are to remain with him or be sent
to some institution. Mrs. Bingham
is rather voluminous talker and
she cut loose on Rubensteln.
