Run Over by Train, But The Cat
Came Back.

C. " railroad men are responsible for a
story which they are so willing to uphold their
yeracity that they will take oaths TO the effect
that the story is true.
1t seems that a freight engine and fourteen
cars ran over a cat several days ago in the
freight yards of Chambersburg. The bystand-
ers, calculating that each car should take one
of the cats lives and thus destroy the whole
Of the proverbial nine, thought it was % for
the unfortunate feline. The body of the mu-
tilated animal was thrown upon the top of
car going to Hagerstown, so that II would be
carried out of town. Imagine the surprise of
those who had seen the accident when the
''cat came back" alive and active the next
day with the very same train crew that had
transported its Dead body the day before.

continued to FIRE on the constsbulary until
finally one corner of the house had been shst-
tered sufficiently to permit of firebrsnd being

the house was deserted or that its occupants
had been killed or wounded.
Believing this TO be the case, Captain Rob

found the fort nearly deserted.

Fierce Fight With Rioters.

DUBOIS, Pa, September 1.-Two mem bers
of Company D, state constabulary, located at
Punxutawney, were killed, two seriously and
three more slightly wounded in an encounter
with rioting Italians this evening. The scene
of the trouble was New Florence, small
mining town, about 10 miles south OF Dubois.
The dead:
Private John Henry, aged &c, of Philadel-
phia, shot through the heart.
Private Frank Zehringer, of Conshocken,
body riddled with bullets, and rescued just
before the house was destroyed.
Three unidenIfed Italians, one shot aud
two burned in the destruction of the house.
The seriously injured:
Private Homer c. Chambers, of Rochester
Pa, shot through the head and body, having
FIVE wounds, mostly bucksbot.
Private VIM. A. Mullen, of Harrisburg, shot
through the right foot.
George Felilzky, aged u, son of Steve Fe
litzky. a miner, shot through the leg.
Sergeant Joseph Logan, of Dubois, who
was at first reported among the injured and
whose attempt to make an arrest caused the
outbreak, was not hurt.
The trouble started when Sergeat Logan
attempted to arrest an italian game Law viola
tor, who was carousing with companions
The man took refuge with IA other country
men IN house and hreu Volsey at the con
stable, who then telephoned 10 the barracks
for help. Five officers responded. Approach.
ing the house, they received a heavy volley
from the foreigners.
Private Henry WAS instantly killed and Pri
vate Mullen wounded. The officers retreaied.
a few moments later the state police made
a gallant dash TO recover Heury's body. aud
were met with a sharp volley that wounded
Chambers. More state troops reached the
battle ground. A charge was made, and the
door Of the house battered in. The foreign
ers fred so fercely that the troops were forced
to abandon an attempt to fight their way to
the second floor.
Private Zehringer lost his life on the stairs.
The troops retreated, carrying his body with
them. All the available members Of the
troop, in command of Lieutenant Egle, sur
rounded the house and exchanged shots with
the miners.
Late tonight the troops we're preparing to
dynamite the dwelling, and more bloodshed is
probable.
The police have arranged six powerful
searchlights, so that the entire bailding is in
plain view. At IL o'clock one Of the heaviest
transforms experienced here this season start
ed, but all the watchers are standing bravely
on guard.

IMPORTANT TO
FARMERS !!

Freight rates on agricultural lime have
been reduced from LeGore, Md, to all points
on the W. NJ. R. R. This is of great mpor-
lance to you, as il puts you i'll position to
get the best land improver and crop grower
on the market at very reasonable prices.
Our lime is shipped hundreds of miles and
into ten (10) different states for agricultural
use, and its superior quality has been known
for years. We can manufacture the best lime
on the market because we have the best
formation of limestone in the East. And we
have had experience enough to know how to
proportion the different kinds or straIas OF
rock so as to produce the best agricultural
lime manufactured.
Ten years ago our lime was used by the
farmers along this road in large quantities,
but the high rates instituted made the price
prohibiiive. Very reasonable rates are now
in effect and we are Looking forward TO build
ing up a very large trade along this line. We
would like to correspond with all farmers who
desire to make more money by improving
their farms and growing better crops. A
postal addressed to US will bring full
particulars.
