FOUND DEAD IN POND.
indications That Eugene Potter Met With
Foul Play.

The vicinity of Mud Pond, not
many miles distant from Jamison
City, is greatly excited over the
death of Eugene Potter, foreman of
a gang of men who were engaged
in cleaning the pond, which is soon
to be used by Col. Bruce Ricketts,
in furnishing the power for his light
and water plant.
Potter, who was twenty-eight
years OF age, and a companion, lived
in camp adjacent to the work.
Friday night two strangers appear
ed in the camp and asked tor lodg-
ing, but Potter was compelled to
refuse their request on account of
lack of room. He offered, however,
to row them to the other side of the
pond. Soon after their departure
from camp Potter's companion re-
tired and, going to sleep did not
miss Potter until Saturday morn
ing, Not finding him in camp he
instituted a search. He sood found
the boat turned bottom side up, and
the body of Potter was nearby. He
was drowned and had been dead
some time.
The two strangers left no trace
behind tLem, and have not been
seen by anyone since leaving the
camp Friday night. Potter was an
excellent swimmer and, under or
dinary circumstances, would have
been we'll able to take care of him
self in the water.

His Condition Serious.

The condition of Rev. A. S. Bald
win, presiding elder of the Danville
district of the Methodist church,
who resides a: Sunbury, has taken
a sudden turn FIR the worse and
grave fears for his recovery are now
entertained. His condition was re-
ported to be better on Monday, but
it is now thought that this was only
a fictitious improvement. His son
at Philadelphia was sent for and is
now home. His condition yester-
day was such that no one outside Of
the family could see him.

WOMAN FIRED
FOUR SHOTS
Now in Jail Awaiting Result
of Victims Injuries
Only Twenty Years Old

The number of prisoners in the
County Jail was added to on Tues
day, when Anna Riley, twenty
year old adopted daughter of John
Riley, OF Centralia, was incarcer-
ated, charged with having shot
Robert Kile, of Centralia.
AT the hearing held before
Squire Gerrety at Centralia, these
facts were brought out: Kile, on
Monday was passing the Riley
house. and looking in observed
that the occupants were drinking
beer. He stepped in and was or
dered out. He did not do as COM
manded, whereupon, Riley struck
him over the head with pick h IL
die and knocked him down. Kile
left the house and going out into
the road picked up stone and
hurled it into the house. Riley
started after him and a scuffle en-
sued in which Kile was bested.
The two had separated when the
girl appeared and taking revolver
from her bosom fired tour shots at
Kile, two of which took effect.
Kile moved on for a short distance
wnen he fell to the ground. He
was picked up by friends and car
ried into a nearby house. Consta-
bles Langdon and Cain were sum-
moned. The injured man was tax.
ell before Justice Black and war
rant sworn out.
Kile was removed to the Miner s
Hospital at Ashland, where he now
lies in very grave condition. He
has two very serious wounds, one
in the back of the head and the
other in the back, the bullet OF
which lodged in his stomach.
At the hearing three eyewitness.
es gave testimony. They were
Bernard Mcguire, Michael Gerrety
and John Haley, and they al
swore that they saw the girl shoot
Kile in the back.
DR.. Davis, at the hearing, said
that the man S condition is extreme
ly critical.
In view of these facts, the justice
concluded to hold the prisoner with
out bail, to await the result of the
man S injuries.
The constables experienced con
siderable difficulty in bringing the
prisoner to the Jail. They accom-
panied her from the hearing to hel
home to prepare to go to Jail. She
went into another room locking the
door behind her. After waiting
for some time for her to return the
officers became suspicious and be
gan to investigate. They founc
themselves locked in the house
and the girl missing. They go
out through a window, and afte,
considerable searching found the
girl at the home OF an Italian. They
were refused admission to th'
house, and did not secure the pris
oner until after they had threat
ened to break in the door.

THIS WAS
REAL BUSINESS
All Was Harmony Monday
Night, and Everything
Went With a Rush
Paving Contract Awarded


the Bloomsbury Town Council was
a tame affair compared with the
numerous preceding sessions OF
that body. Harmony reigned su-
preme, and the discord and dissen-
sion which stained and polluted the
previous meetings were conspicu-
Gus by their absence. The con-
trast was decidedly pleasing, per-
haps not to the many spectators
who had assembled expecting to
see a repetition of the wrangle and
heated discussions that have marked
the former meetings, but to the
members Of Council the change was
visibly gratifying. Not only was
the business transacted peacefully
and harmonionsly, but the various
matters were dispatched with a
speed that was at once commend
able. They did not get together
until after eight O'Clock, and when
the town clock struck nine, every
thing was disposed of and they
were ready to adjourn.
Town Treasurer John w. Lewis,
reported his calculations touching
the matter of the amount that it
will be necessary for Council to
levy, in order to pay the interest
and bonds when due. Mr.. Lewis
said it would be necessary to levy
special tax of $274. 60. Mr.. Run
yon stated that the Act of Assembly
required that special tax be levied
and placed in a sinking fund.
Some of the other members thought
that instead of levying special tax
it would be best to lay aside $274.-
60 out of the regular taxes. The
latter arrangement seemed to find
the most favor, and upon motion it
was decided on.
For the paving Of Center street,
there were only three bids submit
ted, namely; Thos. Corey, o. B.
Mellick, and d. ]. Rodgers. The
former, however, was not accom-
panied by a check for $4,000 as
required by the specifications, and
it was thrown out.
O. b. Mellick's bid was as fol-
lows: Guys brick, $2,Io per
square yard; Clinton Shale, S2.I5
per square yard; Bolivar, 81. 20 per
square yard and another kind at
$2.4o per square yard. The bid
contained nothing regarding the
curbing, as called for in the specif-
cations.
D. J, Rodgers agreed to pave
with Bolivar brick for S2.22 pei
square yard, Porter brick S2.23 per
square yard and Mack brick s.. "a
per yard. For the cur5ing he bid
as follows; Blue stone 75c per foot,
Ohio stone Csc per foot, Reset curb
ing ISc per foot.
The opening and reading of the
bids was followed by discussion,
which resulted in the contract being
awarded to d. j. Rodgers, Bolivar
brick will be used with blue stone
for curbing.
Treasurer Lewis reported that
the taxes were coming in very sat
isfactorily.
The remainder of the business
consisted principally of routine
work, none OF which was of any
particular import.

THE COLLEGE LYCEUM.
Prof. Angelo Heilprin Gives Illus
trated Lecture Friday Night
On Mont Pelee and Mar
tinque Tragedy.

On Friday night, January 13, Prof.
Angelo Heilprin, F. R. G. S., pres
ident of the geological society Of
Philadelphia, will appear in the col
lege auditorium, to fill one of the
numbers of the lyceum course with
his illustrated lecture on Mont Pelee
and the Tragedy Of Martinique.
The Newberry public has been
charmed by the excellence of the
previous numbers in the course, and
the large gathering which will as
suredly be present will no doubt be
equally we'll impressed with Pro-
fessor Heilprin's lecture.
Professor Heilprin presents the
first complete account of the catas-
trophic events of the island whose
misfortunes have so aroused the
sympathies of the world, and added
a chapter TO history as interesting
as that of the fall of Pompeii and
Herculaneun. Prof. Heilprin's early
visit to Martinique permitted him to
study the scene of the major disaster
very soon after its happening, while
his experiences on the still burning
volcano, whose crater he was the
first to visit after tn, '-agic eighth
of May, and during the great erup-
tion of August 80, of which he was a
direct observer, were such as to
make the narrative describing them
one of thrilling interest.
The authors qualifications as an
investigator give to his lecture its
stamp of scientific authority. The
illustrations which accompany the
lecture, chiefly from photographs
taken by the author himself, are
unique of their class and are revela-
tions to any audience.
Professor Heilprin has delivered
his lecture, Mont Pelee and the
Tragedy of Martinique, FIVE times in
Baltimore and nine times in Phila-
delphia.
