GAME is SCARCE

Hunters are plentiful, but game
is scarce. A few days ago as we
were going towards Scranton in the
evening, more than twenty hunters,
many of them with dogs, boarded
the train. There was no triumph
ant exhibition of strings of birds or
rabbits, and no loud boasting of
prowess as a huntsman. Every
man came in quietly and took his
seat, and had very little to say.
AS the new arrivals entered the
cars they were closely watched by
those already in for some indication
of successful day, but not man
peeped, and we doubt whether there
was a single bird in the whole
bunch,
The general complaint is that
game is scarce.

Collision on D. L. &
". Causes Death
Through Failure of Engineer
to Obey Orders. Two Trains
Met at HunIoCk'S
FIVE PERSONS KILLED

The north bound train on the
d. l.. & w. road which passes
Bloomsbury at ro:4r in the morn
ing, on Wednesday met a freight
train two miles below Hunlock s
creek directly opposite Retreat, and
as result five men were killed
the two locomotives totally demol-
ished, the baggage and express car
torn to pieces and several coal and
freight cars wrecked. Two men
are seriously injured and twenty or
more were more or less bruised.
All this is the result Of the failure
of Charles Snyder, engineer of the
freight train, to take the siding at
Hunlock's. The killed are Charles
Snyder, of Northumberland; Henry
Greenwood, of Scranton, baggage
master; Albert Stookey, of Kings
ton passenger train; Charles Gra-
ham of Scranton, express messen-
ger; - Ringsdort, fireman on
freight.
The injured are Frank Poole, of
Scranton, engineer OH passenger
train, arm torn off; Dane Kings
bury, who has been supervising
the cement work at Bloom station,
hurt on leg, head and back; Brake
men Wall and Flalanhoney of
freight train; w. +. Crompton of
Milton, salesman; c. P. Bomboy,
of Wilkes-Barre; Mrs. limerick, of
Danville; Miss Dora Kisner, of
Orange township and several others.
The freight train had received
orders to run extra to Rupert
and to take the siding at
Hunlock' Instead of doing this,
the engineer passed the siding.
The conductor sent a brakeman
ahead to notify Snyder of his error,
but the crash came before he could
reach the engine.
There were 5S passengers on the
train and many of them were slight
ly bruised. Fortunately the coach
es remained OH the track. Traffic
was blocked all day, and passengers
were transferred around the wreck
This is the first time in twenty-five
years that any one has been killed
on this division, by collision.

TOWN COUNCIL.

The regular monthly meeting of
the Town Council was held on
Monday evening. A number of
petitions were received. Among
other matters. DR.. Arment appear
ed on behalf of the Board of Health.
He asked that an ordinance be pass
ed compelling physicians and nurses
to report all births with which they
were concerned within ten days,
and all contagious diseases, includ-
ing scarlet fever, diphtheria, and
smallpox be reported in "a hours.
In case of death from such malady
the doctor to issue certificate to
be given to the sexton of the
cemetery where burial is made.
Another measure was to prevent
the promiscuous handling of tickets
which is liable to spread contagion.
This ordinance would compel milk
men to make use of the same ticket
but once; also that Sunday Schools
should abandon the giving out of
merit cards which pass through
several hands.
The matter of the salary Of Chief
of Police Knorr was laid over. The
point was wheter he should be paid
in full dur rng his illness, when a
substitute was on duty and drawing
pay.
Several petitions concerning
building permits, arc lights, sewers,
pavements, &c. were presented.
The subject of pavements that need
repairing was discussed, and the
sense of the council was that rigid
measures should be adopted to COM
pei compliance with notices. After
passing bills the meeting adjourn
ed.

WANTS TO GET OUT.

Scott township wants to get out
of Bloom Poor District. Last spring
the voters of the township decided
in favor of it by vote of I72 to 10.

attained, his mind turned to re-
venge. He knew that he would
be called on for cigars. All! A
great idea! If there was a cigar
in town that carried guarantee
to kill he would buy the entire
stock. AT last writing he is forcing
cigars on every caller at the Fruit
Growers Packing house who says
"snipes." Gus. Martell smoked
two of them and spent a dollar and
a half for antidotes at Cavanaugh
s, Grasses. We want to urge all
our friends to be careful. Mr..
Sinner is one of the most sweet
dispositioned men in town, but on
the subject of snipes he becomes
demoniac.

The following trustees responded
to roll call:-Milton Spencer, Ira Nell

C. C. Hawkins, town clerk.
The committee appointed to re,
port on the Beezley electric light

They Sniped Him.

On Monday evening w. II,
Garvin, and party of select
sports made up gang to do lit
tie hunting trip not recognized
under the game law. The parti-
cular brand of game sought was
snipes. The method by which
these toothsome birds were to be
taken was by the time honored
sack and lantern system. with a
fresh water fish, sometimes men
toned as a sucker, to hold the
aforesaid sack while the dead
game sports performed the ardu-
Gus duty of driving the birds into
the same. In this case it was found
necessary to dispense with the
lantern as the brilliancy OF the
sack holder (his name was Shiner)
rendered its use unnecessary. He
got home at about am. The walk
from Stevens gulch was a beauti-
full and entertaining one. The air,
cool and bracing took off the wire
edge of the natural heat engender-
ed by the discovery that Mr..
Sinners associates had deserted
him to seek their downy beds and
get ready to give him the &C arse
and jeering horse laugh in the
morning. The twinkling stars
seemed to smile at him but it was
a sympathizing mirth, that con-
trasted most pleasantly with what
he expected to receive when he
showed up for work in the morn
ing. AS he crossed the bridge and
heard the gentle murmur of the
river he thought how gladly he
would tie rocks to his companions
of the evening and drop them off
one by one, into its pellucid
depths. His lonely walk ended
and the cloister of his boudoir
