DONLEY TRIAL. ON
AT LOCK HAVEN

Lock Haven and Clinton county
generally is wrought up over the trial
Of William Donley charged with out
raging and brutally numbering his lit
tie niece, Mary Donley, The jury was
secured Tuesday aud the examination
of witnesses began yesterday morning.
There was such feeling among the
Remove jurors that none of them were
accepted on the case. The defense ap-
pears to feel that the prosecution will
make strong case against the prison.
eI, and desperate effort will be made
to save him. The prosecution will
prove that Donley admitted to a
friend, Edward Kelly, that he had
grabbed the child and taken her down
along the river bank. No trial since
Shaffer was tried, convicted and ex-
ecuted for the murder of the Colbys,
has created so much interest in Clin-
ton county.

TEN THOUSAND
DOLLARS IN sight

A couple of interesting facts have
the proposition that the county COM
missioners contribute five thousand
dollars for the erection of the soldiers
monument, which has so.long been an
unrealized dream in Montour county.
1t was learned at the office of the
county commissioners, Saturday that
if the five thousand dollars recon-
mended by the grand jury, be con-
tributed by the county to the soldiers
monument fund, it will increase tax
alton only one mill 1t occurs that
the aggregate value:of all property in
Montour county taxable for county
purposes is $5. 142, ,922 90. 1t is there
fore patent that the.burden in the way
of increased taxation will be so light
as to be scarcely perceptible.
The amount of money that the SOL
diers' monument committee has al
ready gathered by subscription
amounts to some fve.thousand dollars.
1t is quite apparent that the sum total
in sight-through the grand jury's re-
commentator some ten thousand
dollars, will prove inadequate to erect
such memorial asIis contemplated
The solicitors will no doubt be able
to realize some money by canvassing
the town, but it is doubtful whether
enough can be raised by subscription
to cover the deficiency.
The second grand jury will act ON
the matter at the February term of
court.

Treatment for
Nervous Men

Coming from a source of que
toned authority on the ailments Of
men it is presumed to be infaIlible,
while the profession generally en-
dorse the ingredients and prescribe
them in many different forms of
various diseases. The following
formula is highly efficient ia quick.
ly restoring In nervous exhaustion,
m~elancholia, anxiety, timidity IN
v~enturing, dizziness. heart palpitation,
trembling limbs, insomnia, thinness,
cold extremtties, tired-all in feeling
and general inability to do those nat
ural and rational acts upon which de-
ponds a mans success and happi-
ness in social and everyday life.
The instructions for mixing at
home secretly so hat no embarass-
ment may be felt. are as follows:
First get the three ounces of syrup
s~arsaparilla compound and one ounce
compound fluid balmwort; mix and
let stand two hours. Then add one
n ounce tincture cadomene (not
cardomom) and mix all together. The
directions are TO AXE one teaspoon
ful after each meal and one when
retiring, until bounding health and
full strength are restored. Even a
few weeks Will witness most wonder
full results.

equilibrium follow the treatment, no

ing the elimination Of six of the en-
dorsed men to Governor Sheldon; others
came to put in a word for some lawyer
not included in the list of the elect, and
some came to put in a word edgeways
for themselves. So the action of the
governor in calling upon the bar to help
him out failed utterly to stop the scram-
BILE.
While this story was told by one who
ought to know and while probably it can
not be verified, it is nevertheless given
as a fact that ninety-nine lawyers were
voted or yesterday at the meeting of the
bar association. AS there were ninety
nine lawyers who answered to roll call,
the natural conclusion is that each law
yer voted for his neighbor.
The scene when the lawyers were writ
ing their ten names on the ballot was
like that of a county convention; lawyers
were hauled and pulled by other lawyers,
who in turn were -buttonholed by out
siders. The assistant custodian OF the
federal building here secured several
votes for his favorites, notwith standing
his action might have caused his removal
for "pernicious activity" Those lawyers
who could not think of ten names to
write were easy prey for those who had
favorites, and no man was too big to be
lobbied.
