Dcciduous and Citrus Fruits

Despite the Indictment weather, there a
fair amount of business transacted in the market

ESCH RAILROAD BILL
IS PASSED
MEASURE REQUIRING REPORTS
ON ALL ACCIDENTS APPROVED
BY LOWER HOUSE.

Washington. Dec. l5.-Sitting until
after nightfaI the house buCkrcd
down to business today. passed the
Esch bill requiring railroads to make
full monthly reports to the interstate
commerce commission of all accidents,
and measure giving the commission
power to compel railroads to provide
uniform equipment for their ears, and
then took up for consideration the
Mann Panama bill on which general
debate was concluded.
Much opposition developed to Sec
ton IF the Esch bill prohibiting the
admission as evidence or the use in
any action for damages of reports fur
nished. by railroads or reports of the
Interstate commerce commission for
investigation as provided in the meas
urc. Chairman Mann urged that the
section be allowed to remain i'm the
bill TO encourage railroad companies
TO give the commission the benefit of
fun information on accidents.
Several amendments calculated to
modify or destroy the section were de-
feated. The bill becomes effective as
soon as II is signed by the president.
When the Panama bill was reported
by the committee on Interstate and
foreign commerce. the house immedi-
ately resolved itself into a committee of
the whole for its consideration. Repre-
sentative Mann ull). author of the BILL
explained its provisions, after which
general debate began.
The abolition of the isthmian canal
commission and the Capitalization of
authority for the construction of the
canal and the government of the canal
zone under the president and attorney
general. We're bitterly opposed. 1t was
contended that congress had no power
to delegate legislative or judicial s1l-
thority to the president The section
of the bill relating to the judicial power
on the zone, which as amended by the
committee, confers more powers i'm one
circuit court and such inferior courts
as the president may constitute, also
was objected to.
Representative Sterling allD endeav-
ored to show that there was not work
enough for the three circuit Judges now
on the zone. Before the house rose
from the committee of the whole the
reading of the bill had begun. with the
that II would be taken
up again soon after the holiday re
cess.

90 YEARS OLD.
Has Read the Bible Through As Times
and is Still Reading.

st. Johnsbury, March ia company
Of 100 friends Saturday celebrated
the goth birthday Of Mrs. Abigan Har.
riman. Even in New England, where
as one author has said, people have
got into the habit Of living" one rarely
sees so perfectly preserved mono
genarian as Mrs. Hartman. when
reporter called to see her she was read
ing her bible and said that she has al
ready read it through 4s times. She
spends most Of her time in reading and
sewing.
Mrs. Hartman was born in Barnet,
March IL, 1919, daughter Of Rob
ert and Judith (Wallace) Laird. Her
father lived to be S. years old and her
mother SO. She was the second in the
family of eight children, all of whom
lived to be past 50 and three of whom
are now living; John of Spirit Lake,
Ia, Peter of Nyando, N. Y, and Mrs.
Hartman.
Before her marriage she taught 10
terms Of school in Cabot, Albany and
Barnet. She is very sure that the old.
fashioned way Of teaching spelling by
syllable made better spoilers than the
modern method. She was married in
1S45 to Charles r. Hartman. who has
been dead ~ years. The year after
her marriage she and her husband be-
came members Of the Walter Harvey
church in Barnet, Covenanter Presby-
terrain, and she is still member of that
church. She came to st. Johnsbury 25
) ears ago to be near her nephew, Rev.
Washington Laird, at that time pas.
tor of the Presbyterian church here,
and now in charge of church of 6tS
members at West Chester, Penn.
She has two children, Mrs. L. s. Cum
nings with whom she makes her home.
and Wallace b Hartman Of st. Johns
bury. She has only one grandchild,
Rosa Hartman, and it is for this moth
erless grandchild that she does most
Of her sewing. She still carries on ex-
tensive correspondence with her rela.
tives who live away from here.

MUFFs FOR HUNTERS.

A muff Is recognized article of at
tire for German sportsmen. Not that
every sportsmen carries muG, but
the wearing exdtes no more surprise
than the wearing OF pair of fur lined
gloves. It is quite as efIieaeious as fur
lined gloves, and the hands are disen-

periodicals devoted to sports and natural
history one continually meets with ills

in which some of the members of the
shoot are carrying muffs quite as uneon.

outsiders in the provinces or in the
neighborhood of Berlin.
These muifs are carried on a cord pass

the waist, and some have uocket in

Those in general use have the merit of
cheapness as well as OF warmth, for the
prices of stock goods range from IS to
