The Lehigh Valley Railroad Co.
has announced that it will abandon
Harvey's Lake the coming sum-
mer, SO far as running excursions
there is concerned. This step is
taken because of the burning of
the big dancing pavilion and the
additional reason that the running
of excursion trains to the lake has
not been very profitable for two or
three years past. 1t is said that
the company will devote its efforts
to booming Lake Carey, to which
resort most of the excursions which
have heretofore gone to Harvey's S
Lake will be run. The announce
ment of the abandonment of Har-
vey's Lake came as a great blow to
those who have money invested
in buildings and amusement devices
at the lake, as we'll as the hotel
men and steamboat companies, as
the excursions were the main source
of revenue for these concerns

In the river. had been buried IN tho

was dug UP for inspection but 1t was
not that OF the missing boy. This
stranger, by tho way. was buried. 1T
is said, In a box made Of ,ndrcsscd

The Cousins boy Is rather large for
his age. He weighs 140 pounds. and
would easily pass for young man OF

found hiding under the tobacco plants.
Being a. woman Of unusual common
sense, Mrs. Groot has continued at
her duties. without fretting All the
while. The boys sisters are very
much distressed. They were particu-
larly fond Of their young brother and
the entire family did everything to
make his life pleasant and comforts
