MAHONEY'S SISTER
VISITS DANVILLE

Michael Mahoney who WAS found
unconscious near the stove works Fri
day morning and was unable later to
give an account of himself, was remov-
ed TO his home near Scranton Satur-
day.
Mrs. John Lynch, sister of Mahoney
of Minooka. with whom the latter
boards. arrived at Dsnville OH the 8 10
d l.. 6 W. train Saturday morning.
and accompanied by her unIucky BROTH
er, returned home ou the 2.ll d. L.
81 w. train.
Mrs. Lynch was met at the station
here, by Chief of Police Mincemoyer
and taken 30 the Jail, where Mahoney
was detained in the hospital cell. The
man readily recognized his sister, but
he had no clear conception of how he
happened to got to this city.
Mrs. Lynch stated that her brother
is subject to attacks similar to the one
sustained in Danville. The last she
saw of him was on Thursday morn ing,
when she took his breakfast to his
room. Shortly afterward he disappear
ed from the house and she heard Moth
ing more of him until the news arriv-
ed through the police department of
Scranton that he was dead.
The latter, of course, was an exag-
gerated report. but Mrs. Lynch's mind
was not disabused until she reached
Scranton Saturday morning. The peo-
pie OF Minooka, therefore, on awaiting
her return Saturday evening expected
that she would be accompanied with
the dead body of her brother.
When Michael Mahoney arrived in
Danville Thursday afternoon he was
evidently in dazed condition. He got
off the :33 d. L.. & W. train. AS soon
as the train pulled out he hunted up
Station Agent Eggert and complained
that he had been put off the train. To
prove that he had right to ride he
exhibited ticket to Johnstown. When
the train returned the station agent
reported the matter to the conductor.
who denied that the man had been put
off the car but stated that he left the
train of his own choice.
DR.. Stock is quite confident that if
the man had not been rescued from the
creek Just when he was Friday morn
ing he would surely have perished.
For several hours after he was rescued
he hovered between life and death.

will operate favorably to the sports
men is the excellent work of the State

section OF the state. They have made
a number of important arrests for in
fringement Of the game fish laws and
the successful prosecutions followed

every angler to strictly observe the

Esperanto enthusiasts, those folks
who are endeavoring to establish a
universal language that appears to
the ordinary individual to be quite as
abstruse and unwieldy as Sanskrit,
will gain some encouragement from
the novel suggestion made by Profess
or Roy, the French Esperantist. He
urges the establishment of an indie
pendent Esperanto state in Europe.
The site he has selected for his eX-
pertinent is ON a neutral strip of ter
ritory which lies on the frontier be-
tween Germany, Belgium and Hol-
land, five miles from AiX-la-Chapelle.
This territory is known as Moresnet,
and it is situated in pleasant valley
that has population of 5000 inhabit-
ants. Esperanto is to be the official
language of the place. The expenses
of the state are to be borne by the
subscriptions of Esperantists all the
world over. The scheme includes an
Esperanto theater, daily official Es-
peranto Gazette and a sort of Esper-
antist parliament, which will meet pc
riodically to discuss the affairs of the

Chickens to Ring Chime of Bells.

A chime of bells operated by 5000
chickens is the original plan of James
Prickett Of Saginaw, Mich. On the
floor of the chicken house he will place
a metallic table, which will be con-
nected with the chimes far above In
the tower by an insulated wire. Tho
pecking of the 5000 roosters and hens,
Prickett declares, will set up vibra-
tory motion in the table, which will
start powerful electric motor in oper-
alton. This motor in turn will release
the spring controlling the chimes, which
will then begin to ring. Thus all the
chickens on the farm will know that
dinner is on and while they are dining
will have music to whet their appe-
tites just as the actresses do along the
Great White Way.
