Gold a Discomfort to Murderer.

Henry Fisher, the convicted murder
er in the Northumberland county pri.
son, is complaining that his cell is
cold After the finding of knife ON
Fishers person. the degenerate brute
remarked to Warden Mcdonnell that it
didn't matter whether he cut his
throat with the knife or the window
pane. Picking up the tip the warden
had the glass removed, and now the
murderer complains of the cold. The
efficient warden's laconic reply to the
man when he spoke of the temperature
was: "Well, Henry you might as we'll
freeze to death as cut your throat ,"
Unless the man reconsiders his threat
he will be decidedly uncomfortable
until the time comes for his execu-
tion.
His cell is examined three times
each day, and "trusty'i makes7 a
round of inspection during the night,
so that it is unlikely Fisher will get
any opportunity to commit suicide.

mistake for the reason that when it
showers the water washes the SCOT to

Justice Dalton Office was the scene
of hearing Monday, in which the
defendant, complainant and all the
witnesses were from the Polish quart
er
The hearing lasted nearly an hour
and there was not a dull moment from
start to finish. OF course, the rapid
fire remarks were unintelligible to
Americans, but the gestioulations were
very expressive. So that with the aid
of the interpreter, in the person of Leo
Barron, the facts were finally reached
and the justice decided that prima
facie case had been made out
The defendant was Joseph Srakis
and the prosecutor Joseph Yaraus.
The latter knew little English and
alluding to the defendant said
No good, no good Every day,
drink All the time, punch, punch -
As he muttered the last sentence to
illustrate his remark he delivered a
blow in the palm Of his left hand with
his right fist.
"What have you been doing, Joe"
the Justice asked.
Nothing, nothing me. ~ Then
pointing to a very black and inhamed
eye, he added excitedly, hey hey !"
All this was preliminary The de-
fendant pleaded mot guilty" and
then the ball began.
The gist of the matter was that JOS
eph Yaraus claims that the defendant
disturbs the peace, makes remarks re-
f1ecting ON his character and that OF
his boarding mistress and Monday
made bad worse by rushing at him
with clenched fists.
The witnesses corroborated the facts
alleged and Srakis was in fair way
to be held for court, when the parties
agreed to settle by the defendant pay
ing the costs.
Costs amounted to So 80, which were
paid by the wife of Srakis, who ac-
companied her husband TO the hear
ing, carrying a bag well filled with
coin.

Eegleoting the Annie Oron


In an article on Pennsylvania Or
chards the Scranton Tribune very
justly says; ''In spite of the fact that
the finest apples in the world may be
grown in this State, the Pennsylvania
farmer as rule takes the least trouble
to develop his resources. How often,
III driving through the country in
springtime, one may see an argicul-
turist following the plough through a
field of sckly looking corn that will
yield scarcely nothing save stalks, al
lowing the magnificent orchard plant
ed by his grandfather to go to decay,
while the promising fruit is left to
the ravages of insects By lack of pro-
per pruning and through neglect in
destroying worms nests in early
spring, many noble trees that would
bear bushels of luscious fruit each
year. yield comparatively nothing.
Many farmers, who would resent the
intimation that they are not thrifty,
allow golden opportunities for profit
to slip by each season by failure to
give enough attention to their fruit
trees. "

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO

Their Unoeasing Work Keeps Us Strong
and Healthy.
All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes The kidneys filter the blood.
They work night and.Eday When
healthy they remove about 500 grains
of impure matter daily, when un-
healthy some part Of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings on
many diseases and symptoms-pain in
the back, headache, nervousness, hot
dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel
disorders of the eyeslght and hearing
dizziness, Irregular heart, debility.
drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the
urine, etc. But if you keep the filters
right you will have no trouble with
your kidneys.
Augustus Hawn, 327 Second St.
Huntingdon, Pa, says: 1t was about
three years ago that my kidneys first
began to give me trouble The disease
grew on me gradually and constantly
became worse until it reached stage
of severity that when l got up in the
morning sharp singing pains would
catch me in the back and the action
of the kidneys became very regular
and there was hot burning sensation
during passage Of the secretions. /

and the entire yield is found to be not
less than four thousand, three hundred
bushels, which is considered rather
above the average yield. Three hun
dred bushels per acre is said to be a

per acre is even regarded as good. AT

A Deluge of Magazines.

The local post office on Saturday
was flooded with such deluge of
mail matter as has never before been
known within the memory of the old

was 1.-The Designer, magazine for

The Designers came Saturday morn
ing-twenty- bags of them, each
bag being a big load for three men to
lift. Thousands of copies all address
ed to people in Danville. Each copy
weighed 81 ounces, so it can be easily
imagined how the packs OF the mail
carriers would mount up in weight.

though, and by Saturday evening near

been delivered to the proper address
