Petitioned Court for Writ of Mandamus

The first move in the legal pro-
ceedings to have the bridge across
the Susquehanna River at Mifflin-
Vile erected, was made on Monday,
when District Attorney A. w.
Duy petitioned the Court for writ
of mandamus to require the County
Commissioners, William H. Fisher,
William Bogart and George w.
Sterner, to build the bridge. The
Court directed that a writ should
issue. 1t is made returnable at the
May term of court. The matter
has been taken up by the Commis-
sioners, and they have instructed
their engineer to prepare plans
and make estimates to construct
the bridge in conformity to the
direction of the Supreme Court.
They will be obliged however,
to wait the action of the Court, as
the funds must be provided, or
bonds issued to meet the additional
cost of an overhead crossing.

Wilkes Barre defeated the Normal
boys in the gymnasium Saturday
evening by the narrow margin of

Normal to lose inasmuch as they

Gals put up good game, consider
ing the serious handicap, OCCASION
ed by the absence of Brown. At
the end of the first half the score
was Normal IT, Calvary I3. In
the last period Of play, however,
the visitors easily set the pace,
finally landing the game by the
score of 20 to I9, Ed Lewis Of

Presbyterian Choir.

The choir of the Presbyterian
Church has recently been reorgan-
lied. The resignation of Mrs. R.
F. Colley as orgarist, made it
necessary to procure a new organist
and Miss Elsie Hicks has been
elected to this position and entered
upon her duties last Sunday. She
is an accomplished musician, and
has been playing the organ in
Presbyterian Church at Danvile for
the past year or two. Mrs. Colley
has served for many years as or
ganist of the Presbyterian church,
and one year she played in the
Episcopal Church. She stands in
the front rank of Bloomsburg's best
musicians, aud her resignation was
only because of her increasing
family cares.
The choir as now constituted in
cludes the following: Sopranos,
Miss Cope, Miss Sara Milleisin,
Miss Helen Meyer; contraltos, Miss
Miller, Miss Laura Meyer; tenors,
r. F. Colley, A. N. Yost; bassos,
S. X. Bidleman and w. H. Brewer.
This church has been noted in
times past for It's excellent music,
and there is no reason why, with
such good material, it should not
continue to maintain its high
standard.

Narrow Escape From Drowning.

Whitman Smith, of Mifflinville,
in crossing the river at that place
Saturday morning before daylight,
accompanied by two other work.
men Elmer Andrew and Warren
Hess, walked off the ice into IL
feet of water and was only rescued
after heroic efforts on the part of
his two companiors.
Smith was pulled out upon the
ice wet from head to foot and be-
fore he could be taken to his home
his clothes we're frozen stiff. Had
he been alone he would surely have
drowned and as it was it was a
narrow escape for him and his
friends as they ran great risk in
saving him.

pany in which he owned $500, 600
in stock. The capital was So, ,ooo,-

$500, 900 worth of the stock for
$1,000 and helped freeze the CON-

mining deal and shows how much
chance the average small stock
holder has in these schemes. AS a
rule the winning schemes are of
two classes, In the one there is
no value to the mine, and in the
other it is so heavily over capital
lied that it will never pay divid-
