A number of the hotel keepers in
Wiliamsport have inaugurated a
new rule to govern the sale of liquor
over their bars, and if rigidly en-
forced by the bartenders will work a
large amount of good.
The hotel men have prepared a
list of names of men known to them
to be of inteniperate habits and
others whose presence is undesirable
about the hotel.
This list of names is kept behind
the bar and the bartenders are in
structed not to ALLOW the men in the
bar room. AS new names are found
and placed on the list, the other
hotel keepers are notified and the
names are also placed on their list.
There are now number of names
on all the lists in the city, and these
men can't get liquor served to them
over any of the bars. The hotel
porprietors will keep this rule up
until all the undesirable patrons are
known to all the bartenders.
One man when refused liquor at
the bar hunted up the proprietor and
demanded the reason. He was told
to leave the place and never ask
to be served over the bar again
The hotel adjoining was told of the
occurrence and he was placed or
that list also.

! 1t has been discovered that in Chi
cago several undertakers have beer
giving trading stamps to widows ol
deceased citizens in ORDER to increase
business. This fact was. discovered
when one sorrowing widow cancelled
an order for coffin given to an un-
dertaker because he would not give
her trading stamps There is proba-
bly, nothing legally wrong in giving
trading stamps to recently bereaved
widows, but the practice might be-
come dangerous to society if women
should become so addicted to the
trading stamp craze as to hasten the
demise of their husbands in order
to take advantage of the undertakers'
offer.
No doubt the Chicago undertakers
who issue trading stamps did live
ly business until their scheme was
dnearthed, for the average woman
feels that it would be shame not to
take advantage of such an offer, even
at the risk of being accused of max
ing tight of such a solemn thing as IA
funeral. However, the ethics of the
undertakers profession have been
violated and the trading stamp funer-
al directors are likely to discover the
gravity of their otfense when the
undertakers' association holds the
next meeting.
Deputy United States Marshall ii,
Laurish arrested Henry Gordon and
James Canew of Bellfont, on infor-
nation preferred by postoffice in
spector w. A. Rhoads. The boys
who are under 2l years of age are
charged with breaking into mail
car on the Central railroad of Penn
sylvauia, while it was standing near
Bellfont on March u. The amount
they secured from the mail ear is
charged in the information to have
been 10 cents and three two cent
stamps. The case seems to he Il
clear one against the boys. They
were held in $500 bail fn defanIt Of
which they were committed to the
Dauphin county Jail for appearance
at the United States court at Harris
burg the first Monday in May.

He asked that he be given IA light
