Kelley Turns up at kipp's Run.

T. Z. Kelley, of Edison Burner"
fame, was heard of again yesterday
morning at Kipp's Run, where he
evidently intended to ply his trade,
but his plans were nipped in the bud.
Kelley appeared at the home of
James Carr at Kipp's Run yesterday
morning, and asked for the lady of the
house He was met by Mr.. Carr, how
ever, who inquired what he wanted.
Kelley started the ball rolling by in
quiring of Mr.. Carr about his lanterns
and lamps, whether they were work
ing satisfactorily, etc.
Before the conversation had gone
very far Mr.. Carr noticed Kelley pick
up copy of yesterdays Morning
News, and after a glance at the story
in which he appeared as the hero OF a
film fam game, he seemed to suddenly
develop desire to be on his way.
After Kelley had departed Mr. Carr
read the article, and then knew at once
WlGn WHOn He Hau pooh ooANoAsihS'
The description fitted perfectly. Kelley
is slightly over five and a half feet
tall, slim and wears a long coat re-
sembling rain coat.
Kelley was fired out of Danville
Tuesday morning about 10 O'Clock af-
ter spending the night in the lookup.
He does not seem to be travelling very
fast as it took him one whole day to
reach Kipp's Run.

BIG Mill Burned at Herndon.

Fire, involving the loss of property
worth from SIS, 900 to $4,000, broke
out in Herndon at 10 40 o. clock yester-
day morning. Bogar & Bingamen's
-four mill and three warehouses Of
George Deepen are totally destroyed.
The blaze started in the -four mill
and rapidly spread throughout the
building. Before anyone was aware
that there was a fire it had gained
such headway that there was no hope
of saving the mill. Sparks and pieces
of burning wood set fire to George
Deppen's warehouses situated nearby.
Practically all the able bodied men
of Herndon turned out to fight the
flames. There is no fire department in
that town, and recent agitation has as
yet produced not even a bucket bri-
gade. The efforts of the citizens were
to confne the contiagration to as
small an area as possible. At twelve
O'Clock the mill and warehouses were
still burning uncontrolled, but there
were strong hopes that one, of the
warehouses might be saved.
Earl Deepen, son of Geo. Deepen
and brother of Geo. E. Deepen, of
Sunbury, was overcome by the dense
smoke in the mill while trying to re-
cover important papers and other
valuable property. Several men rushed
into the building and found him ly-
ing on the floor unconscious. They
carried him out and he soon revived.
Bogar & Bingeman' S mill is one of the
largest in the lower end of Northum-
berland county. 1t is total loss.
The fire was brought under control
at noon. Three warehouses were total
ly destroyed besides the mill. Repre-
sentatives of the insurance companies
estimate the total loss to be SIS, 000-
On the flour mill $4,000 insurance is
carried by the Pennsylvania Millers'
Mutual Co., and $500 by Walton
| Rhoades, of Sunbury.

Postal Card from Runaway Couple

The runaway couple. l6-yearold
Sara Phillips, of Berwick, and George
Foulk, of this city, who left the form
er town last Sunday, and have since
been accused by the girls mother,
Mrs Henry Phillips, with taking with
them 5000 stolen money belonging to
Mr.. and Mrs. Phillips. have been heard
from.
The word from the couple came in
the form of post card from Mort
hampton to the girls brother in Ber-
wick, and was signed, "Your married
sister, Mrs. George Foulk " The post
card stated that the couple were leav
ing for st. Louis.
Mrs. Phillips. the girls mother, yes
terday made some sensational state
ments. She said that she attributed
her daughters actions to some peculiar
influence that had been exerted upon
her. For some time, Mrs. Phillips
stated, her daughter had been acting
queerly, just as if she didn't know
what she was doing; her actions
strongly suggesting hypnotic influ-
ence. AT times when her mother ad
dressed her she seemed to answer with
difficulty.
Some time ago, upon coming down
stairs in the morning her mother found
a 30 cailbre revolver on the table The
revolver was loaded. When shown the
weapon later, Foulk claimed it as his
property.
