Back to the Paw Car,

Experiments now being made by the
p r. r.. indicate AL early return to
the good old days of the pay car and
the payment of employees of monthly
wages by cash instead of by check.
The latter system, after trial of 30
years has been found to have its dis
advantages. and the company is ex.
perimenting on certain divisions with
payments in cash.
The objections to the check system
are varied. In many instances the en-.
ployes are remote from the banks up.
OH which their checks are drawn, and
are put to some Inconvenience and ex-
pense at times in securing the money
In other instances employees have alb.
sented themselves from their work for
days, on plea Of having to ges a check
cashed.
Probably the strongest objection on
the part of the company is that the
check system tends to the employees
frequenting saloons in order to gel
their checks Dashed. By this practice
they lose discount and are also prone
to fall into habits not at all consistent
with good railroading.

Brozpsi at the Shamokin and Goal
township almshouse Friday, oenters
considerable interest. as his case is a
record breaker in the medical world,
inasmuoh that he has lived for the past
eight years with broken back.
The broken back was the result of
fall of coal In the mines, which almost
completely covered him. his head only
being exposed After the coal and rock
had been removed from him it was
found that large piece had struck
him squarely in the middle of the
back, breaking it. and paralyzing him
from the waist down. He fingered for
time lowering between life and
death, and finally fully recovered from
his other injuries and grew in strength
with the exception of the paralysis of
the lower portion of the body He was
finally removed to the almshouse,
where he has since been continuously
confined to his bed, only being moved
when change of bed clothing was
necessary or he was placed ON an in
valid's chair.

Mr.. BOOkmiller's Beans.

Albert Book miller has raised some
pole beans on his premises, Cherry
street. which are probably the largest
ever seen In this section.
The pods are Of about the thickness
of the ordinary string bean. but it is
in length that the beans excel, the
largest in MI. Bookmiller's garden be
ing thirty-six inches. Several pods
raised by Mr.. Bookmiller we're on ex-
hibition at J. f. Tooley's store yes
terday, the largest of which measured
twenty six inches. The seed were Oh
tanned In Ber rwick and Mr.. Book kmiller
was much surprised to see the pods at
tain such a size.
The large pods, it is said. cook easily
and are very delicious. In Massachu-
setts they are raised in great quantities
aud are sold by the farmers the same
as any other beans, except that their
great length makes it necessary to coil
them in the half peck measure.

will be able to earn comfortable
livelihood.

but that the young mans sister would
be along in the morning and would
make arrangements to stay some tim G
at the hotel.

thought of the matter until the next
day when the sister failed to arrive.

strange guest failed in eliciting any

WORKED STRONG
SWINDLING GAME

Late Monday afternoon 1t was learn
ed that the horse and buggy left BY an
unknown party at the Shamokin
House, had been stolen from Hunters
livery stable at Danville, by one of the
sliokest individuals that has visited
this section for some time.
During Mr.. Hunters absence the
man who gave his name as Frank Rug.
giles, Of Grovania, near Danvilie, ap-
preached his son at the livery stable
and said he wanted to hire one OF
Hunters best horses to be gone three
days In Snyder county to purchase oat-
tie. Just about this time a dealer
drives up to the stable with string
of buRgies and the slick swindler i'm
mediately made a purchase of one Of
the best. giving his note for eighty
dollars in payment for the same. 1t
seems that the stranger had visited
two other livery stables and had hired
a horse at each place but returned
them claiming they were not as good
as was wanted. When this was learn
ed in connection with the purchase of
the buggy Hunter gave him one Of the
best horses in the stable and three
valuable robes.
Instead of driving to Snyder county
the fellow drove to Sunbury, leaving
the horse and buggy at the Shamokin
House. After being in Sunbury a short
time the swindler offered to sell the
entire outfit for fifty dollars. Leaving
Sunbury he went to a farm several
miles below town where he purchased
the entire farm and everything upon
it. He told the party with whom he
made the deal that he should come mp
to the Shamokin House aud get his
money. After this nothing more OF
the fellow WAS seen.
When Mr.. Hunter, ST., returned
home he searched all the barns al
Selinsgrove and Shamokin Dam and
later Ohief of Police Waltz found the
missing outfit.-Sunbury Item.
