"United We Stand-Divided W.
FALL

Apparently the Ladies Chamber of
Commerce think they should fight the
Fourth street pavement. l am very
sorry because | think they make
grievous mistake, but if the men of the
town really want the pavement, they
will ''rock the boat" hard enough to
get it. For, remember that "the fittest
survive" but we must not expect the
storekeepers on Fourth Street to do all
the fitting" so that Emporium can
survive.
1t is like the story of the poor man
whose horse fell down and broke his
leg, and the neighbors and friends
stood around, saying "My, how bad
that is-the horse will have to be shot,
and how sorry they were etc. etc."
until one of them said, "Well, | am
sorry $500 WORTH and in a very few
minutes the man had money enough to
buy new horse.
The paving of the center of the town
is benefit to all of us-both in the
East and West Wards, and to the peo-
pie who live on the hill, and for my
part am willing to subscribe some
thing to get it paved.
l DO not expect to see the street paw
ed in front of my house for ten or more
years, but l would like to see Fourth
Street paved with brick from the
Warner House to the Junction as soon
as possible. There is some talk of fore
ing the property holders by law, but
we do not need any law between
friends, and we are all friends and are
interested in Fourth Street, and in the
health and looks of the town.
Our storekeepers have been compel
ed to carry their customers this last
winter, and trade has not been any too
profitable, and believe we had better
go without the pavement than to quar-
rel with the Ladies Chamber of Com
merce, who feel that this is not the
time to raise the money, and 1 certain
ly would not be in favor of using any
force to get what we can get peace
fully.
The work can be done much better,
and a great deal cheaper by the Bor-
ough doing the work, the same as they
did in front of the Odd Fellows block.
Principally because we would not get
full allowance from a contractor for
the good foundation that is already in
the street. Another reason why we
should have this pavement put in this
year is, so that we could apply to the
State Highway Department to finish
the road down to the Junction, and it
is quite likely that our member in the
Legislature next year-either Mr.. Egan
or myself-could see that the state
helps make brick road through the
East Ward, the same as the State has
helped other towns. This cannot be
done until we make the connecting
line between the State road in the West
Ward and the strip of pavement at the
Odd Fellows block, and it should be
done now, so that the Borough can
make application to the State Highway
Department to get the street paved to
the junction next year.
Now, if we are really anxious for this
pavement, let us ''rock the boat" and
all chip in and give something accord
ing to our means, and we will get it.
Respectfully yours,
JOSIAH HOWARD.

BROOKS.


Miss EvANGELINE BROOKS, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. V. A. Brooks of Sim
namahoning, met with fatal accident
at Sterling Run, last Saturday after
noon. Miss Brooks went to Sterling
Run early in the morning to arrange
ior camping party for July 4th. She
stopped at Mr.. Edward Whiting's and
securing his horse and buggy started,
accompanied by Mr.. Whitings two
daughters, to examine the condition of
the camping grounds. After calling
at Mrs. Phineas Masons home they
started on their return to Sterling
Run. When near Jas. Strawbridge's
the horse becoming unmanageable, she
told the girls to jump out, which they
did. The horse now seemed to De be-
yond control and was running at a
rapid pace, the brave girl standing up
and making desperate effort to check
him, when she either jumped or was
thrown out, striking on her head. Mr..
Jas. r. Strawbridge, who saw her fall,
and others fastened to her PROSTATE
form. She was found in an uncon.
scious condition and breathed for a
short time, but was dead when DR..
f, Corbett arrived.
1t is the impression of many that the
harness was broken as we'll as the
thills, which made the horse run away,
in fact one side of the horse showed
signs of bruises or scratches.
Kind friends tenderly carried her to
the home OF Jas. r. Strawbridge, when
her friends were notified of her sudden
death, who in turn 'phoned to II on.
Geo. j. LaBar's undertaking establish
ment at this place, to take charge of
the remains. Mr. Rishell took Erie
mail, the Penna. R. R. Co., kindly con-
senting to stop the train at both Sterl-
ing and Sinnamahoning, and prepared
the body for burial.
The regret expressed by all who
knew the lady, as she was we'll and
favorably known in all parts of the

IIAUBER,

HAUBER.
Mrs. ELIZABETH IRENE HAUBER,
aged 30 years, wife of our townsman
Mr.. j. S. Hauber, died on Friday night
about II p. M, June 10Th, 1908, at the
family residence, Fifth street, after an
illness covering one year. The devot-
ed husband consulted the best medical
skill in Buffalo, Philadelphia and other
places yet the true cause of her disease
baffled all. Last week her devoted
husband took her to Philadelphia and
consulted a specialist without arriving
at any conclusion. He was advised to
come home and return as soon as the
sick lady grew stronger. They came
home and the poor sufferer cheered up
and on Friday afternoon was quite
talkative. The hand of death was then
lowering over her. AT eleven O'Clock
she passed away, peacefully.
Deceased leaves in addition to the
husband, four children-two boys and
two girls-the eldest nine years old
and the youngest four months. The
eldest children will make their home
with Mr.. Hauber's mother, Mrs.
Sebastian Hauber, at st. Marys, Pa.
The babe was given, by the dying
mother, to Mr.. Hauber's sister, Mrs.
Henry Biber, of Kane, who has no
children.
The remains were conveyed to st.
Marys, the former home of Mr.. Hauber,
Sunday evening, where scores of re-
latives and friends viewed the depar+
ed at the old Hauber home. Requim
High Mass was celebrated Monday
morning at st. Marys Catholic Church.
The funeral was very largely attended,
relatives and very many friends COM
ing from Emporium and other towns.
The floral offerings, from relatives and
friends in Buffalo, Erie, st. Marys and
Emporium were in great abundance.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hauber were married
ten years ago last Feb and were great
ly respected by our citizens. We knew
the departed all her life and never
heard anything but good words in her
behalf. No husband could be more
considerate and sacrificing than Mr..
Hauber. Nothing that money could
purchase was denied her. Our towns
people all deeply sympathize with the
bereaved husband and children.

IN PENSION Law
MORE THAN A SCORE ARE PLEAS
ED BECAUSE OF NEW PEN
SION LAW.

More than a score of widows and
old soldiers in Ottumwa are merry as
result Of the widows pension bill.

the civil, Mexican or Indian wars, %
to be thus remembered. Pension
Agent Wilcox at Des Moines has
been notified that the payments are
to start May 4. The restriction is

husbands before 1890.
Instructions to Des Moines agency
state that widows now on the pension

ton, but those not on the rolls must
make application as in the past.

any widow to receive the pension, no
matter what her income may be-
Widows are not required to prove
