Congressman Burke, Dalzel1 and
Huff are known to have had senatorial
aspirations for years and as was to
be expected. have gone after the hon
ors with a vim. Henry c. Frick, the
Pittsburg coke and steel king, thinks
he has had enough business and now
intends to enter politics. He is being
backed strongly by his Pittsburg
friends. George T. Oliver. the we'll

also William Finn, a former state

John P. Elkin of the supreme court

Uniontown. Whatever the result it is
to be a close hard fight.

included fine two year old pony Of

driving colt and one mule colt. The
fence of the pasture in which they
were enclosed, had become loosened in
such manner that they had been able
to get out, wandering to the railroad

that Sells will not be entitled to any
