TO PLAY AT SUNBURY.
Friendship Boys viii Contest Honors With
Danville on Neutral Grounds.

Frank Edmondson aad Harry
Bedea were in Sunbury on Satur-
day says the Danville MeaOs, max
ing arrangements to play the second
basket ball game of the series be-
tween the Friendship A. A. of
Bloomsbury and the Danville team.
The first game of the series was
played in Danville on New Years
Day and resulted in an overwhelm-
ing defeat for Bloomsbury by a
score of 6I-I4. The Friendship
boys then claimed that they could
make better showing, and stand
a good chance of defeating Dan
vile if the next game could be
played on neutral ground. The
Danville management was willing
to give their friends the benefit of
the doubt and Sunbury was chosen
as the place most convenient for
both teams.
The Sunbury Armory has been
engaged for January 25th. If pos
sible special train will be run to
Accommodate the Bloomsbury and
Danville enthusiasts who wish to
see the game.

Or. MAMNING'S DENIAL.
Wishes 1t Understood He Never Promised TO
Accept the Bishopric.

The Rev. DR.. Manning has re-
quested the Rev. DR.. Foley, of
Williamsport, to make the follow
ing statement: The Dispatch, of
York, Pa, recently reported a con-
frmation address of Bishop Talbot,
in which he was reported to have
said that he had a conference with
Dr.. Manning prior to his election,
and that DR.. Manning practically
declared that he would accept. In
all probability the Bishop never
made any such statement, and DR..
Manning wishes it understood that
he never made any such promise.

Is a Candidate for Re- Election.

Among the. names that will go
before the Democratic Caucus to-
morrow night is that of Guy Jacoby,
Esq. who announces himself as a
candidate for reelection to the Office
of Justice of the Peace. Mr.. Jacoby
has had an extended career as a
justice, during which time he has
amply demonstrated his executive
ability. That he has filled the
office in thoroughly satisfactory
manner is admitted by all. With a
superior education, wide experience
and a cool dispassioned judgment,
he makes an excellent official and
that he will be nominated to-mor-
row night and re elected next
month is a foregone conclusion.

SELLS. FOREPAUGH SALE.
Bailey Buys the Circus for Sl50,000-Sells
Half Of it TO the Ringlings.

The Sells Forepaugh circus was
sold at auction on Tuesday at Col
nmbus, Ohio for 81 SO 900, the only
bid. The auctioneer went through
the form of crying for other bids
but not another offer was made,
and in a stentorian tone the auc-
tioneer declared the Sells Fore
paugh show "sold for $50, 900,
and very cheap price, gentlemen,
but we must take that, since we
cannot get more" About 200 per-
sons were present.
Lewis Sells stepped to the front
of the platform and informed those
present that the purchaser was
James A. Bailey. The terms he
said, were cash. Only five minutes
was required to sell a property that
has been 80 years in making.
James A. Bailey gave out the
following statement:
'The Forepaugh-Sells Bros. show
is now the sole property of James
A. Baily and the Ringing Bros.
A half interest was sold to the
Ringing Bros. after the auction
sale. The show will be operated
next year by myself and the Ring
ling Bros, and while the name has
not yet been decided upon, Fore
paugh-Sells Bros. may he retained. "
The circus will continue to remain
in winter quarters at Sellsville and
will start from there early in April,
showing in Columbus first. 1t
will be the greatest show ON earth.

MONTHLY MEETING OF TOWN COUNCIL
Continued from Ist page.

thousands of dollars had been
carried along, always included in
the annual statement, and on which
the Town paid six per cent interest.
The orders at present aggregate
SIG, 900. There are available funds
amounting to $4,000, which if ap-
piled to liquidate these outstanding
orders, would leave $rI, 900 un-
provided for. His idea he said was
to issue four per cent bonds to the
amount of $1I 900 and take up
these orders. He had talked over
the matter with the solicitor. and
had authorized the latter to prepare
all ordinance, which he would like
Council to adopt. The ordinance
was read, and on motion adopted.
The bonds are in the amounts of
$Ioo, $500, $500 and $500, and run
until 1924.
In the matter of tax exonerations,
it was decided to hold a special
meeting tonight, when the collec-
tors lists will be taken up.
The matter of flushing the fire
plugs occasioned lengthy discus
sion among the members. 1t
was claimed that some time was
lost at the recent Wooden
Mill fire owing it is said, to
the inability of the fremen to get
water in sufficient quantity and
force, to successfully combat the
flames. The discussion ended with
motion to withhold the Water
Company's bill Of $Io4.Io until all
the fire plugs are placed in work
ing order.
The misuse of and consequent
blocking of the sewer on Railroad
Street near Main street, which has
caused much annoyance and ex-
pense of late, was considered, aud
the matter was referred to the COM
mittee on sewers with power to act.
Orders were drawn for bills due,
after which the meeting adjourned.

FARMERS OPINION.
Support the County Paper and Patronize It's
Advertisers.

Every thoughtful and fair minded
farmer in Columbia county will
heartily endorse the following paper
read at a farmers institute and
published in one of Our exchanges:
"As rule the farmer knows no
hrmer friend than the country press.
The home paper is distinctly the
farmers own paper, supported di.
rectly or indirectly by the farmers
who compose the backbone of the
printers subscription list an d
largely for what the merchant ad-
vertises. Now, brothers, let us
not forget our friends. Let us see
that Our subscription is paid before
the first of January and a year in
advance if we can afford it. The
man or the paper that fights my
battles shall have my support.
Another thing the merchants who
advertise are the ones who make it
possible for us to get a good local
paper and the men or firms who
are too penurious to advertise and
help support the local press have no
right to the farmers patronage. l
propose hereafter TO go to the good,
live advertiser and a man who will
do his share in supporting the local
press, thus contributing to my sup
port, rather than buy of the man
who proposes to take all and give
nothing i'll return. If farmers as
class would support their friends,
the other fellow would soon go out
of business.
