they own the ground, and as the
company intends to mine the coal
underlying the plot, it is feared
that the surface might become dis.
turbei in time. The committee,
however, is of the opinion that the
company will consent to the project
on accouct of the coal measures
lying very deep in that particular

concerning serpents swallowing

Surface also said the stories some

there is no reason why superstition
and ignorance should combine to
crush out the life OF this animal,
which is perfectly harmless and un-

Murdered Body Thrown on Tracks.
Believe That Young Man Met With Foul Play
Near Trevort0n.

wear ITtNVflOH.
On Sunday morning Dec. 20, the
first fatal accident happened on the
Trevorton branch OF the Shamokin
Extension Trolley company, which
was attended with circumstance of
a mysterious character that may i'm
ply something mo than an acci-
dental occurrance.
According to the reported facts
it appears that when car No. I6,
was running into Trevorton at r2:-
80 o'clock, Sunday morning. a per-
son was truck at the corner of
First and Shamokin streets and
dragged a distance of some thirty
feet. Upon examination it was
found to be the body of Matthias
Schascheck yoLng man of about
Io years of age. He was found to
be dead with his head crushed to a
pulp.
At first it was believed that the
young man had fallen across the
track and as it was very dark at
that place, the motorn;an, who is
one of the most careful and reliable
i'll the employ of the company, was
unable to see him. But a further
examination of the circumstances
attending the case does not sustain
the theory of an accident. 1t is
found that his overcoat and other
articles of clothing that were known
to be in his possession are missing.
He had been attending a party on
Saturday evening. and is not known
to have been in a condition that
would have led to his falling on the
track and remaining there in help
less condition. Besides his head
was confused in a manner that
could not have been caused by con.
tact with car wheels. The case is
is enveloped in mystery which,
when solved. may add another to
the numerous Northumbei land
county murders.
