UNLOADING WHISKEY
ON EMPORIUM.

Not content with rubbing it inn on
Emporium OH account of the great
number of fatalities that has befallen
Emporium during the past year, the
Port Allegany liquor dealers, or at least
one dealer last Friday sold one gallon
of whiskey to an Emporium woma n,
who had been arrested for drunkenness,
when any person could tell that she was
addicted to drink. The courts of Nc
Kean county should investigate this
case of violation and promptly punish
the violator. The woman referred to
came home gloriously drunk and made
an assault upon her family and again
landed in jail. The woman referred
to, when out of liquor, is an indus
trious, hard working citizen and has
accumulated considerable property.
The great sorrow under which the
family is resting warrants our with
holding the name.
Emporium we admit is, and has been
for sometime, practically drunk; pigs
ears and fragrant violations of the
liquor laws, assaults, murders, robber-
les, and all kinds of meanness and
deviltry going unpunished. The peo-
pie of Emporium are ready for revolt
and if the licenses are wiped out by the
court, none will be to blame but the
violators. Hotel men, who have large
sums of money invested, in order to
protect their own interests should
promptly organize for self protection.

The Great Van Amburg Shows.
The Atlanta News saws:

1.-The general concensus of opinion
of the five or six thousand Atlanta peo-
pie who attended the afternoon and
night performances given by the Van
Amburg shows is that not a cleaner,
cleverer circus ever raised it's canvas
in Atlanta, and every person attend
ing the afternoon or evening perform
ance will be walking, taking -adver-
tisement for the Van Amburg Shows
should the circus come this way
again.
"All the horses, all the animals of
the menagerie, looked trim, we'll fed
and cared for, the wagons, the cages,
seemed more than mere gold leaf and
tinsel decorations. From the ticket
sellers and takers to the ushers and
even the canvas men the circus at
aches appeared neat and courteous.
But, best of all there wasn't a CRATER
with the show. For each dime or dol
lar spent by the amusement seekers,
either in or about the show, an equiva-
lent to the full was given of entertain
ment.
''There have been large shows in
Atlanta in past years, circuses that
spread larger tents, needed more care
for transporting paraphernalla and ex-
hibits, shows that made more pretense
and blew louder blasts of publicity,
hut never one that gave patrons more
for their money or made a better i'm
preston of cleanliness and decency.
To praise in detail all that should be
praise would be to consume columns
of space, so it can only be said that
every Van Amburg attraction was bet
ter than represented, every ring artist
first-class, every detail of the circus
wholly satisfying. May the Van AM
burg Shows come again next year and
every year." Will exhibit at Empori-
um, Aug. 10.

Gets Something at Port Allegany


A Hungarian woman who claims
Emporium as her home, was in the
city Tuesday and Wednesday begging
1t is said that she walked over from the
powder town. 1t is further said that
she is the wife of one of the Hunks
who was burned to death while drunk
at Emporium a couple of weeks ago.
There is an ordinance against begging
on the streets of Port Allegany.-Re
porter.
Brother Layman of the Reporter has
been giving Emporium some hard
raps lately in regard to the liquor
question. We are aware that En-
prium has numerous license places,
and may not be as strict as the law re.
quires them to be, but we would like
to know what difference it makes
whether person buys their whiskey
at home or goes to Port Allegany to
make their purchase. The only way
we can account for it is, as the old say
ing goes, they are looking for the "rot-
tenest stuff on the market. We will
say in reference to the above notice
that the woman referred to is being
properly cared for and has not been
out of town since her unfortunate trou-
ble The editor of the Reporter says
fewer licensed places and the more
strict the law will be carried out, and
then they won't be 80 hungry for the
money. Now, case came under our
observation the past week, in which
party was refused drink at this place
and at once took the train for Port
Allegany and returned with four quarts
of whiskey, the result of which theparty
was so crazed that she is now in Jail.
We don't know what brand they sell
there, but it must be rank stuff.

State Road Extensions.

The State Highway Department have
had crew of surveyors in this county
for several days surveying contem-
plated state road work. The surveyors
were named: j. T. Gepheart, chief,
and assistants, Robt G. Horneck, Wal
ter T. Young, Harold Block, Howard
Hershey, M. Glenn Brubaker and u.
j. Eckman. Two pieces of road have
been surveyed in this county, 1900 feet
from P. Il E. r. r., depot at Sinnama-
honing to the iron bridge on First Fork
and 5000 feet of an extension to the
West Greek road built last year. This
will extend the West Creek road up to
the Emporium Powder Company road
and make a pleasant drive or even
walk.

New Proprietor in Charge.

Mr. VIM. Schultz, of Pittsburg, who re :
Gently purchased the furniture and leas-
ed New Warner arrived in Emporium
last night and took possession today.
Mr., Schultz is a practicalhotel man, hav-
ing conducted the same kind of busi-
ness in Pittsburg and East Pittsburg
for nine years. He is gentleman in
the prime of life, quiet an unassuming
and we bespeak for him the same large
trade accorded the New Warner under
the retiring proprietor and his estim-
able wife, who have made many friends
in Emporium. We are glad they will
remain here

to be proud of their beautiful and well
kept lawns, and trip around town will
repay any one. Start in some pleasant
evening and walk around town and
you will be surprised. OF course Geo.

House lawns takes the prize, if one was
awarded. No finer lawns can be found
in the state than those to be seen in

Kaye and Judge Green's being the
most extensive.

WAS BEST EVER.
Great tVanAmburg Circus Pleased
Every Feature Splendid.

Every TedIuTe opieHOlO.
If it ever comes back to- town, and
you have not already seen it, be sure
to go. 1t is without doubt superior to
any circus travelling the United States.
1t is the cleanest, most refined and
up-to-date circus in the world. There
is an absence of grating or grafters
that is noticeable. The gentlemen in
charge do not carry that old-time cir
Gus swag about them. They are all
neatly dressed, polite and look after
the individual comfort of their patrons,
not giving their entire time and atten-
tion to gathering the sheckles.
If the Van Amburg Circus ever re-
turns to this city it will have to have
two canvases as large as the one used
yesterday to accommodate the crowd
At 8 O'Clock every reserved seat was
taken, and at s:15 every seat of any
kind was taken, the only available
room being on the ground in front of
the seats. The tent was packed al
most to suffocation, and despite the
fact that it was too warm to be com
Portable, nobody left until the last race
was finished.
The work of the acrobats alone was
worth twice the price of admission.
The finest lot of trained horses in
the United States, the daring bareback
riders, the trapeze and bar performers
and the funniest set of clowns ever
carried with circus were all inter est
ing.
The Van Amburg Circus is growing
larger and better every year. 1t will
always be welcome in Atlanta.-At-
lanta Constitution. Will exhibit at
Emporium, August 10.

Scandinavians Are Coming.

Commissioner of immigration Wat,
son has been notified that a party of
scandinavians will arrive about June
: and be colonized in Edgefied and
Aiken counties. The families are COM
ing from the northwest, where they
settled after coming over from the
Scandinavian peninsular, but were dis
satisfied with their location. These
are the first families of a general
movement to that section.
About two weeks ago a prominent
Swedish colonizer secured options on
about 5000 acres of land in the two
counties. He proposes to cut this
property up into 2o-acre farms. He
will leave for Europe about the last
of June and expects to bring enough
people back with him to take up the
entire tract. The class of families he
is bringing all buy their own homes.
