NOT ZOO LATE
FOR AN ICE CROP

Our lcemen. not without cause, are
beginning to feel some anxiety on she
score OF the next ice crop. The present
season is peculiar in that, while the
winter is not distinctively an "open"
one with rain and mud as a rule, met-
curry seems TO hang around the freez-
ing point, seldom going far below.
With the exception of an occasional
day the weather may be said to be
bracing and invigorating rather than
wintry in its nature-which would be
agreeable and satisfactory enough if
it were not that all classes are inter
ested in obtaining an ice crop for the
coming summer.
While there are thin ice foes on the
river the stream up to the present, al
though in the last half of January has
come nowhere near closing. On the
ponds there is fair quality OF ice
scarcely six inches thick and while
the cutting of ice has actually begun
all will agree that from the present
N'ohHP Poiho tllo OutiOOh lOT Dig Ice
crop is not encouraging.
There is, however. plenty of time
yet for an abundant ice harvest if the
climatic conditions of last winter are
to be taken as criterion. How many
persons recall that it was not until
January 18th last winter that we had
our first snowfall that was worthy of
the name? Up to that date the wealth
er had been nearly uniformly wet and
cloudy with misty atmosphere and
muddy roads. On January 2S mercury
dropped to four degrees below zero.
which was the first of the season that
the climatic conditions seemed to
Justify the hope that there might be
an ice crop.
AS is we'll known we had our win
ter in the latter part of January and
February and there was an abundance
OF ice. Prior to the present date tn
year we have had zero weather ands
two weeks ago there was snow of
greater depth than fell OH January 1s
last year.

NEW STACK
COMPLETED

A self-supporting steel stack over a
hundred feet high is being erected at
the silk mill owned by f. O. Hart
man, this city, tostake the place of
the two sixty-foot stacks, which up to
the present have done service at the
plant.
The stack is being built by E. Keel
er g. Co.. of Williamsport, the firm
which erected the 150-foot self sup
porting steel stack at the hospital for
the insane the summer before last.
The stack at the silk mill is supported
by concrete foundation, a seventeen
foot octagon, eight feet deep. On this
foundation structure of brickwork,
eleven feet, three inches high, is erect,
ed, which serves as a base for the
stack.
The stack"consists of ninety feet of
iron work and has an actual height
above the ground of 102 feet and 3
inches. 1t stands south of the mill, 36
feet, 8 inches from the boilers, with
which it will be connected with
breeGhing four feet square. When the
stack is completed the boilers will
have 1876 feet of draught
The stack was begun last Tuesday
and was practically completed yester-
day, As is customary with stacks of
that type it was built;without scaffold-
ing. AS might be implied by the term
"self-supporting mo guy rods are us
ed to steady the stack. 1t is built of
five-sixteenths boiler steel
Stahl and Douty, tie two expert
workmen who were identified with
the erection of the hospital stack, have
charge of the work on the new stack
at the silk mill. During last week
they broke their own record, when in
four hours they put on fifteen feet of
iron, riveting and fully completing
the stack for the above distance.
The high stack, which has so sud
denly sprung into existence at the silk
mill is very conspicuous and strik-
ing figure visible for great distance
around.
The carriageswhich hangs suspend
ed from.the top of the stack contains
a forge for heating rivets this togeth-
er with the free and easy movements
of the workmen on the giddy height
as they proceed with their work in
vests the stack with good deal of in
terest and many persons go out of their
way to obtain view of it.

The Boyertown Catastrophe.

The irst terrible accident of the
year 1908, involving the lives of about
ITO human beings. occurred within the
borders of our own commonwealth.
The details certainly constitute a
feast of horrors sufficient to appal the
stoutest heart. When a town of 2. 800
souls loses 10 of it's number the dis
tress is going to invade almost every
home.
OF course somebody was to blame
1t was a blunder to crowd 425 human
beings into such place of entertain
ment. 1t was "A mistake to close and
bar one section of the double doors for
the convenience of the ticket taker
1t was mistake approaching the
magnitude of capital crime to use
such deadly contrivance as the coal
oil tank which represented the foot
lights and especially to have it loose
on the stage so that blow from the
curtain knocked it to the floor and
started the fire and the panic.
One is sorry for the manhood of some
of the men who were there when one
hears that nine women and children
died in the death trap to one man. 1t
is fearful test of manhood to be
caught in such terrible situation the
most Iesolute may temporarily lose
his head, but it is the duty of men to
protect women and children and those
who crushed the skulls of helpless
children in that hall did not exhibit
the spirit of the true knight. Perhaps
none of US would have done any bet
ter, but if it should be our fate to be
participants in such a terrible event
let us resolve that we will not lose our
heads, that we will not trample on
others in mad rush for the door, that
we will endeavor to persuade our
frantic neighbors that their only
chance of safety is in maintaining
order.

PHRPLEXING
TESTIMONY

Justice of the Peace Dalton found
himself confronted with very diff
cult case Tuesday. The testimony
was oddly conflicting and it would
have required the wisdom of a Solo
mon to determine where justice lay.
: The litigants are all Germans, be-
longing to the small company of i'm
migrants that arrived in this city a
few months ago and domiciled them
selves on Montour row. They went to
work at the big mill and as they pur-
sued the even tenor of their way moth
ing was heard of them until internal
discussion occurred and they appealed
to the law.
The complainant in the case gave
his name as "Yacob" Straup and at
the hearing was arrayed in the oddly
designed costume that belongs to the
peasantry of Europe His information
set forth that about December 10th he
delivered his trunk containing among
other valuables, thirty eight dollars in
cash over to Jacob Miller and Ida
Miller for safe keeping; that between
the latter date and January IA the
said jacob Miller and Ida Miller alb
stracted from his trunk and converted
to their own use the thirty-eight dol
lars in cash.
Complainant and defendants both
are unable to speak our language. a
young woman, who has rooms in the
house, was able to talk English fairly
we'll, but in oIder to get at the testi
mony of the other parties it was
necessary to employ an interpreter.
Jacob Shelhart was called upon to act
in the latter capacity and thus the
trial proceeded.
William Kase West was employed by
the defendants and took an active part
in the hearing. Thomas O. Welsh look
ed after the interest of the prosecutor.
The testimony produced was in effect
as follows:
Jacob Straup boarded with Jacob
and Ida Miller. On the morning of
the 14th inst, Mr.. and Mrs. Miller
proclaimed the fact that robbery had
been committed in their house, two
valuable rings and bracelet having
disappeared. When Straup, the com
plainant, was apprised by Mr.. and
Mrs. Miller Of what had occurred, he
cried out:
"Wait till look and see whether
my money is all right -
He unlocked his trunk with feverish
haste and 10, his money, every cent of
it, had vanished. By this time, ac-
cording to the testimony, complainant
and defendants had both become mutu-
ally suspicious of the other.
Straup brought forth the testimony
that Mrs Miller has trunk the key
of which unlocks his trunk. Ii was
this circumstance that determined him
to cause her arrest. 1t is now up to
the justice to determine whether a
prima facie case has been made out
against the defendants or whether the
house was the scene of robbery, of
which the perpetrators are unknown.
Germany has taken great interest in
bee culture in recent years, and the
crop is about 90, 900 tons year Spain
is a close second of the European
