BROKEN NOSE

Henry Kocher, an employe OF the
Structural Tubing works. met with a
serious accident Tuesday forenoon.
There was CONSERVATION among the
employees of the mill pending the ar
rival of doctor, as it was thought
the man would bleed to death.

being employed to cut up a lot of old
iron rails. He was satanding close by
when one of the severed lengths in
some way getting foul in the shears

under the force of the blow while the
blood gushed ont of his nose in a
stream.

over the phone. Meanwhile every eff

but in vain. BY the time DR.. New

of blood and was very weak.
Mr. Kocher was struck by the iron
squarely across the bridge of the nose
and it required only a slight examina
tion to convince the doctor that the
nose was broken. The bad hemorrh-
age was due solely to the fracture of
the bones. 1t required only a min
ute's work under the physicians deft
manipulation to adjust the broken
bone, after which the hemorrhage ceas-

A Camping Party EIOpement

Columbia county is rather noted for
its elOpements but is remains for a
young couple from Pittsburg who have
been camping near Light Street, to
reach the height of the unique in
matrimonial adventures.
Miss Lottie Clark and William Buch-
anan, of Pittsburg, with Miss Olark's
sister and Harry Kellar, of Berwick,
have been camping at the bridge near
Light Street. Miss Clark and Buchan-
an had decided to trot in double har-
ness, and on Tuesday had completed all
arrangements for the happy event,
which was to have been performed in
camp. The minister, even, had arrived
when it was found that license was
necessary. Both are Inder age, and as
the parents reside in distant Pitts
burg, a quicker course was decided
upon.
Accordingly the young couple left
Yesterday morning for Binghamton
and returned to camp last evening man

yesterday on the occasion of the an

1t is estimated that between 400 and 500

to other events that cOntlicted with

UNEQUAL TAXATION.

The Pittston Gazette charges that
the backward state of the public roads
III the coal regions, as well as the lack
of other improvements, is due to the
parsimony of the coal companies. 1t
SAYS: 1t is not a very enviable dis
tinction for corporation officials to be
lined up against good roads, but eX-
perience in the coal region has proved
that the coal companies are against
any public improvement that tends to
increase their taxes, Notwithstanding
the fact that every man who knows
anything about taxation in the coal
region is convinced that our wealth of
coal does not bear its proper proper
tion of the public expense.

DROWNED
At ELYSBURC

One OF the saddest deaths in the his
tory of Elysburg occurred Tuesday af-
ternoon, when Mrs. Lillian B. Kauff-
man, wife of Lee Kauffman,a a promin-
ent q farmer, fell into spring in
the celrar of her home and was drown
ed
Just how the accident occurred is a
mystery as Mrs Kaufman was alone
when the sad accident happened. She
was last seen by her husband on her
way to the cellar. She was carrying
pail and was going for water for sup
per 1t is evident that in STOPPING ov-
er TO fill the pail she lost her balance
and fell headlong into the spring. As
the spring is deep and narrow it was
impossible for her to extricate herself
and death ensued before any person
discovered her perdicament.
Garyin Kaufman, young nephew
of the bereaved husband who has been
employed on the farm, upon going in
to the cellar some time later was hor-
rified TO find his aunt head first in the
water. He endeavored to remove Mrs
Kaufman from the spring until help
had been summoned. Efforts were made
to restore life to the body but to no
avail.
The deceased was 30 years of age
and was married only last January.
She was we'll known throughout the
region on the South side of the river
She is survived by brother, Hatton
l.. Helwig, of Seattle Washington.
Lee Kaufman, the husband, was form
erly employed at the hospital for the
insane at this place, having left there
soon after his marriage last January.
Mrs. Kaufman was the daughter of
the late Mr.. and Mrs. Solomon Helwig
1t will be remembered Mr.. Helwig
died from injuries received in an ac-
cident in 1904. A year later the death
Of Mrs. Helwig occurred, Mrs. Kauff

to be in favor of early improvements
