but by his persistent will he found
men and money and began to climb
the mountains. After using every
point of the compass and cutting
rock and filling ravines, he finished
one of the most difficult roads in this
section of the country, that from
Sonestown to Satterfield
His next enterprise was Eagles
Mere. On the top of the Allegheny
Mountains he found Lewis Lake
and changed the name to the beau
tiful EaglesM Mere. He then organized
the Eagles Mere Land Company and
erected cottages to rent. Built
hotel called the Chatauqua Inn,
erected an Auditorium and started a
Chatauqua Association co imposed of
Literary entertainments and class
study. He built another rail road
called the Eagles Mere Narrow
Gage. This work started what is
now conceded to be the finest sum-
mer resort in the Eastern half of
America.
His third enterprise was the
Eagles Mere Electric Light Com
pany. Down the mountain and

Mr.. Welch saw power that could
bless humanity. Finding money
and men he built dam and layed
huge pipes for mile down the
steep mountain. At the lower end
he erected turbine wheel and now
manufactures electric lights for
Eagles Mere, Sonestown, Muncy
Valley, Picture Rocks, and Hughes
vile and many of the homes along
the line that runs down the valley.
In his enterprise Mr.. Welch has
doneenore for our country, county
and Muncy Valley than any other
man or companies. His road has
increased the land to twice its form
er value. BY his genius h cou d
look into nature and see her hidden
powers, and unfold them and make
them serve and bless man.
Mr.. Welch was a man of religion.
He was local preacher in the
church to which he belonged.
When he was announced to
fiji the pulpit men came out to hear
him.
He was for many years delegate
to our cOnferen ce and took leading
part in her Legislation.
He was man of influence in
politics, and one time influenced the
State Legis lature to grant HIM
charter to build road from Sun
bury to Danville. After forty
years this charter was sold to the
Bloomsbury and Danville Electric
Railroad Co. Mr.. Welch was
Superintendent for more than five
years of the SOnestown Sunday
School. He was an active member
of this association and appeared be-
fore us many times with strong
papers and speeches.
The committee misses him. W.
all miss him, but he has gone tt
Heaven. He died triumphantly
He longed to go home for more thar
wear after his illness of last May
God took him. He is now wearing
, a crown won by much good work TO

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April pa dispatch to
the Tribune rom Pittsburg says:
A sensation was sprung in the coun-
cilmanic graft investigation yester-
day when President G. S. Cameron of
the Pittsbdrg & Tube City railway
went on the witness stand and told in
detail how he was held up for $4,000
by the graft combine which controls
both branches of the city council
Cameron was asked by Attorney
John Martin, special counsel in prose-
cutting the graft cases, If he did not
have in his possession a list of the
grating councilmen. He admitted he
had such a list and said that he would
produce it today.
President Cameron denied that he
ever intended giving the councilmen one
dollar. He told how he fooled them
by means of checks placed in safe
deposit boxes and afterwari removed.
He said Common Councilman william
A. Martin, now under sentence to three
years in the penitentiary for soliciting
bribes from Cameron, was the col
lector of the combine, and that finally
in desperation the combine demanded
the cash and that 100000 disappeared
from his coat pocket while in the pres
ence of Martin.
President Cameron, through his at
torneys. announced after the hearing
was adjourned that he would resist
all efforts to try him on the charge Of
bribery, for which he has already been
indicted on the ground that his testi-
mony gives him immunity from prose-
cution.

KANSAS CRUSADE

BY Associated Press.


TOPEKA, Kas, April 23.-Attorney
General f. s. Jackson, by securing an
injunction against nine foreign brew
ing companies to prevent their owning
property and operating saloons, and in
obtaining an order for the appointment
of receivers for the brewers property,
has taken the most effective measure
that has ever been invoked to enforce
the prohibitory law in Kansas.
He intends to push his crusade to an
active conclusion, and today in an in
terview said:
when the receiver is named he viii
proceed to locate and take under his
control all property of the defendants
found in the state and will thus be able
to state the place where the defendants
are in any way carrying on business
in Kansas. Any attempt to conceal the
sale of liquors will place the defendants
and all other participating agents any
place in the state in contempt of the
supreme court.
THE property will be sold and out of
the proceeds the court will pay all
costs and damages due the state. If it
is necessary to send the militia to en-
force the order the defendants will pay
the bill. 1t will not be necessary to do
this, however"
The brewers property in Kansas con-
sists of warehouses and saloon fix
lures and is valued at many thousands
Of dollars

BIG STONE PILE LIONS
UP IN THE WINDY CITY
BY Associated Press.

CHICAGO, April 23.-Conidence men,
pickpockets and other crooks who here
tofore have managed to escape punish
ment by paying fines will be required
to work on a municipal stone pile un-
der the vagrancy bill if it is enacted
by the present legislature.
Chief of Police Shippy and Chief JUS
tice Harry Olson of the municipal court
agreed yesterday that the most effective
way of Kidding Chicago of criminals
who care nothing for fines of from $5C
to 800 for each offense, is to put them
to work.
The stone pile will be located on the
grounds of the house of correction and
will be operated in conjunction with the
quarry of that institution.
The proposed new vagrancy law pro-
vides that judges of the municipal
court, instead of fining the crooks, may
send them to the Bridewell for ten
fifteen or thirty days, and the new su-
perintendent, John l.. Whitman, will
put them to work breaking stone
