More than 400 persons according
to the New York World met their
death during the last year from caus-
es directly due to sport, and with
almost every one there rose the ever
burning public clamor against the
dangers of some game or other. OF
the various branches football was
the most criticised as usual and there
seems to be no question that it is
dangerous since eleven weeks built
up q tota, of ii fatalities with some
thing over 100 cases of more or less
serious injury but glance at the
item Of deaths in the various fields
of spot shows that mountain climb
ing leads. In the twelve months of
the year l91 lost their lives in that
hazardous pleasure. Automobiling
has accounted for 10 deaths and ~
hunters have been accidently killed.
1t is quite a drop from such figures
to the IA fatalities of football ith
following in order hase ball s; ma
rine 4; 4 and two each for boxing,
wrestling and horse racing.

A Friend.

If people would study the various
vegetables, fruits etc., as to the
medicinal qualities in remedying
ailments, there would be less sick
ness. 1t would not be difficult to
remember that fruits and tomatoes
are good for the liver. Lettice and
celery are good nerve tonics. Beans
peas, lentils ETC., produce strength
aud heat, and are good substitute
fpr meat in winter. Onions and
radishes are preventatives of colds.
Macaroni and vermicilli, on account
of their closeness of grain, are not as
easily digested as light--hread. Po-
tatoes when mealy are easily digest
ed; when close and watery, they are
lard to digest. Bananas, on account
Of the nitrogen they contain are easy
to digest, says Woman's Life. The
sufferer from dyspepsia should eat
turnips, spinach, caesses, salads, cell
cry, lettuce and dandelions. A per-
son suffering from chronic rheuma-
tism should avoid dried fish.

Died at Butler, Tennessee.

In obedience.to the common sum
mons which comes to all humanity,
we again humbly and sorrowfully
submit; and as we chronicle. this sad
event, which has not only brought
to home deepest gloom, but sor-
row to the inhabitants of the entire
village, we again after the manner
of erring mortals, wonder why the
brightest lights are often taken from
this benighted earth, before they
have scarcely arisen above the joy
full horizon of childhood. But to
the inevitable we bow.
Elda May German was born at
Nordmont, Pa, April ~, 1894, and
died December 20, 1906, age II
years, months and twelve days.
She was baptised into the Lutheran
church in infancy, and as if aware of
her religious proclivities and vows
she grew into sweetsand simple girl
hood, in the pleasure of her creator
who commands to seek first the
Kingdom of Heaven and its right
eousness.
Elda lived only a short time after
being stricken, but as s-.she had lived,
so she died, in sweet simplicity and
undoubting faith, and without a
murmur or a ripple on the waters Of
time as she quietly, gently sailed
from the shores of time onto the
bosom of an endless, unexplored
eternity.

Basis on Which the Opposition Rests
liz Governmental.
1t has been asked why the national
grange should oppose government irri-
CATION of the arid lands of the west.
The common belief Is that because of
increased production In the west Of
farm products there would be an in
creased competition for the farmers of
the east This, however, Is not the
basis Of grange opposition. The irri-
CATION Of these lands at government
expense is based upon the principle
that such improvement to the lands of
the west Is no more defensible as
proposition than the improvement to
lands of the east by drainage and cul-
tivation at the expense of the govern
ment AS national grange authority
has stated, ut would be difficult to
demonstrate why the government Is
more justified in distributing large
quantities of water to improve land
than it would be in removing water
from equal areas of equally valuable
land where the system had been ap-
Piled"

GRANGE IN POLITICS.
But There Can BE No Politics In
the Grange.

But There Can BE No Politics In
the Grange.
AS regularly as come the autumn
weather and the falling leaves comes
the season for politics and politicians.
With it eonlaa the oft repeated and al,
ways denied assertion that 1.-The grange
has gone into politics." 1.-The grange
candidates." etc. Never would this
great national organization, which
knows no north, south, east or west,
have lasted these forty years had ii
been partisan organization or lent its
aid to parties and to partisans, remarks
Mortimer Whitehead in American Ag-
riculturist Other farmers organiza-
tions have come and gone that were
organized to make a new party or to
place its men on tickets and In Office,
but the grange, as an Order true to its
original principles and its platform, has
moved steadily onward, avoiding the
rocks upon which Others have been
shipwrecked. In its earliest years the
grange proclaimed to the world its
general objects and clearly stated: I'VE
empha tically and sincerely assert the
oft repeated truth taught in our organic
law that the grange, national, state or
subordinate, is not political or party
organization No grange, If true to Its
obligations, can discuss partisan or Sec
tartan questions, or call political con-
ventions, or nominate candidates, or
even can discuss their merits in its
meetings"
Yet to the watchful observer and
careful student 1t Is plainly evident
that the grange is power for good in
politics. 1t works upon higher and
broader plane than partisan politics,
for 1t brings the best members of all
parties together, educates and guides
them, and to educate is to set free.

Robert l.. Meyers young man of
Hughesville, is at work on turbine
wheel which in his opinion will rev
olutiOnize the use of that feature of
all water powers. Mr.. Myers has
been giving his attention to this
matter for the past year and is now
working his ideas into shape. 1t is
the aim of Meyers to perfect
wheel that will reduce the volume
of water that is necessary for the
power produced by the old turbine
wheel, thus permitting its use at
places where now this kind of power
cannot be used on account of lack of
water.

SPECIAL MEETINGS.

members should Not he Elected mt
Such Times.
Sometimes the question arises for
discussion in our oranges as to wheth-
er candidates can be elected at a spe-
Gial meeting or not By a special we
mean a meeting not on the regular
dates chosen for the meetings. 1t may
be said that if the bylaws contain no
provision to the contrary, If notice has
been given to all members of the
grange, candidates can be elected to
membership at special meetings; but,
as rule, this is not advisable. The
reason Is this: A candidate who might
not be acceptable to certain members
of the grange could be balloted for and
elected in the absence Of such mem
bers from the special meeting, they not
knowing that the special meeting had
been called for that purpose. If they
are absent from regular meeting they
can raise no objection, as their absence
is their own fault Whether announce
ment made at regular meeting of the
grange that a special meeting for the
election of candidates to membership
would be held on given date would
be considered legal notice to the mem
bers of the grange may be an open
question. To be sure of q possibly IL
legal action in this respect 1t would
be better for the secretary to notify
the members by person or by letter
that an election of candidates for mem
bership would occur at a special meet
ing. AS eXigencies are very rare that
would request election to membership
at any other than a regular meeting,
we would advise that all oranges OBJ
serve the rule to elect only at regular
meetings Gentleman.

The ALLEGED Murder Of Ellis Smell Deliv'
cred Himself 10 the Authorities.

Recent developments in the Hills
grove murder case are to the effect
that Ellis Smell met death as the re-
suit of an attack of pneumonia which
he contracted after receiving the
fatal wounds on Christmas day.
Smell was taken with the disease
several days after the assault at the
Sones lumber camp, and in nine
days he was corpse. DR.. Mervine,
of Hillsgrove, attended the man and
stated that Smell would never have
contracted pneumonia had it not
been for the wound in his lung,
which was directly responsible for
the attack and which made his re-
covery impossible.
Another phase has been brought
forward in favor of John VanBus-
kirk, the alleged slayer of Smell, for
it is asserted that Smell struck the
first blow in the fight that resulted
in the fatal stabbing. While the
two were struggling VanBuskirk
drew the knife from his sieve and
the terrible slashing resulted. There

held that VanBuskirk went into the
room with the knife under his arm
with the intention of killing the
man with whom he had been quar-
reling earlier in the day.

Monday and delivered himself to
Sheriff Buck and was placed in Jail
TO await his trial.

the State Medical Society to have
State hospital for habitual drunk

at Bedford Springs, a committee of

proposed bill will probably be sub

gate various charitable institutions
before it is finally presented in the
Legislature. / is said that the
movement is an Outgrowth of the
Act of 1903, which provides that
dipsomaniacs and drug fends may
be committed to hospitals for treat
ment by near relatives or by their
