BOMBOY'S MARKET.

The changes at Frank Bomboy's S
meat market, corner of Main and

hooks back of the counter is of oak.
1t will compare with the best in

Bomboy's market is well kept,
with a selection of meats that in
cludes everything that can be had
in that line. The place is as neat
and clean as a pin, and is cooled by
electric fans. Mr.. Bomboy's Sue

A DANVILLE TRAGEDY.

Last Thursday morning young
woman named Agnes H. Garger
was killed by falling from the au-
tomobile of Fred Owen, of Dan
vile, while coming from the Oak
Tree Inn, at about 1880 O'Clock III
the morning. She was member
of a carnival company that was
showing in Danville, and went out
with Owen after the performance.
Another young woman of the COM
pany went to the same place with
Harry Cromwell in the latter 5 car
Owen stated before the coroner S
jury that after coming around a
sharp curve on a hill he missed the
girl. Stopping his car he went
back a little way, and found her
unconscious, having fallen Oh her
head on stone, and her skull was
crushed. He brought her tc Dan
vile, but she was dead before he
reached there.
All efforts to find any relatives in
this country have failed. The girl
was an Austrian, and that is all
that could be learned. Her trunk
was traced to a warehouse in New
York, but the latter people refuse
to give it up or to open it until an
administrator has been appointed.
Something may be found in it that
will give clue to her home and
family. She joined the carnival
troupe at Mahanoy City a couple
of weeks before, through a New
York Agency.
The remains were buried in Dan
vile at Mr.. Ovens expense.

CLEAN SWEEP SALE.

Hartman's Clean Sweep Sale is
now at high tide, and the crowds
that are visiting the store daily are
evidence of the fact that these sales
are very popular. A great variety
of goods is offered at exceedingly
low prices. 1t is not stock of
cheap stuff put in specially for this
occasion, but a clean up of genuine
regular stock from the shelves.
The sale is under the direction of
Mr.. Wood of Philadelphia, all ex-
pert in this line, who has had charge
of similar semi-annual sales at
Hartman's for several years past.
There are some big opportunities
in this clean sweep sale. Don t
miss them.

A New Job for Scarlet.
Likely 70 Become Attorney Tor the New State
Railway Commission.

The State organization is plan
ming to obtain control OF the State
Railroad commission, created by
the recent legislature, through per-
sonal efforts of Governor Stuart.
But the governor is said to be wary,
and II is doubtful if be will even
consider the bosses when he makes
the appointments which will not
be until late in the fall since the
act does not go into effect until next
January.
The prospects are that James
Scarlet, chief counsel for the capi-
tol probers, will be invited by the
governor to become attorney for
the commission. Stuart has great
respect for the honesty, integrity
and ability of Scarlet, and it is said,
he has about made up his mind to
ask him to take this place. He be-
lieves that this selection would at
once inspire public confidence in
the commission and show that it is
not controlled by the corporations
or politicians. .-HaaletO@ Standard.

SUE EMPLOYERS,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE Ameri-
can Federation of Labor has decided
to bring conspiracy suit against the
National Manufacturers Association.
This Is labor's countcr-ftroke to the
manufacturers suit to enjoin, the boy
colt and Unfair list. brought in the
District of Columbia Supreme Court
against the officers of the federation
Samuel GomperH, president of the fed
Grafton, said last evening that he was
authorized TO instruct the attorneys Of
his organization TO prepare the papers
for the conspiracy suit against the Of
ficers and members OF the National
Manufacturers Association.
Another development IN the war OF ex-
termination between organized labor and
tho Manufacturers Association is very
apt to be an application at the postoffice
Department for fraud order against the
American Federation st. This Is the organ
of the American Federation Of Labor that
prints tho unfair list, against which an
injunction is sought by the Manufactur-
ers' Association. Daniel Davenport. Of
Bridgeport, Conn, one OF the attorneys of
the Manufacturers Association, who
was IN the city is said to have taken
steps to bring the matter to the atten-
tlon Of the Postofhce Department
II the Manufacturers Association can
secure the Issuance Of fraud order
against tho American Federatlonlst this
would exclude the organ of the federation
from the mails. From the rulings Of the
Postoffce Department there is practically
no appeal TO tho courts, and an adverse
decision from the department would prac-
ucally result in the discontinuance Of the
