new work in Omaha, but the contractor is
laying his plans carefully. The time limit
for finishing the whole Job is December 81.
The size Of the sewer will be eight feet
six inches, outside measurement and seven
feet six inches in the clear. 1t will be one
OF the greatest pieces OF work Of the kind
ever done in this city and .borings have In
dieated that the tunnel part OF the sewer
should offer no particular difficulties, with
the proper kind OF machinery on the
ground. The first workers In the air locks
will have to be trained men. but as the
work progresses new tunnel men will be
constantly broken in, so that they can
work in gangs that will relieve one an
other.

but they make good eating all the
same. 1t may be that in these days
of soaring prices, when 50 many
people have sworn off meat until the
price drops, sparrows may be consid-
cred as a providential supply to re-
plenish the larder with meat, in
some sections. If SO, then in more
ways than one the high price of rcat

Rev. Niles Assaulted.

Rev. Frank j. Niles, secretary of
the Law and Order League of Brad
ford county, which is at the head of
the fight against license law violatOrs
III that county, was brutal'y assault
cd by an unknown person near Wy
soX, Wednesday night of last week.
Mr., Niles resides at Rome and
since taking up his work as secretary
of the league has spent much time in
Towanda. On Wednesday night
he was returning to his home, driv-
ing in an open wagon. When at
il point near WySoX someone stepped
| from beside the road and dealt him
several severe blows on the head and
shoulders rendering him unconscious
i'm which condition he rem lined un-
| til the horse had travelled about
mile and half. The weapon used
10y the assailant was a piece of board
taken from fence at about 100 yards
from Wnefe tie assault TOOK place.
This fact convinced the investigators
that the crime was premeditated.
MI. Niles had previously received
letters from different parts of the
county in which he was threatened
with all sorts of punishment, but as
they were unsigned he paid no atten-
tion to them, and not until he was
waylaid and beaten into insensibility
did he realize that they were not
written as a bluff.
Rewards aggrCgating $3.50 are Of
fered by different parties for the ar
rest and conviction of the criminal.

CandlenaS DaV.

Wednesday was CdndlemaS Day
according to the almanacs, and if
there is anything in the story that
Mr. Turfpig decides the weather for
the next six weeks, on that day,
then we are in for quite spell of
good sound winter. The ToWanda
RevicM has il: "Tradition says
that The pesky little grounding
makes his appearance promptly at
II O'Clock noon on the second of Feb
ruary. He then squints around, as
everyone can see who looks at him.
If there j. enough Sunlight coming
through the atmosphere to make
| him cast an observable shadow he
goes back again into his hole and
waits six weeks for the end of win
ter, when he comes out again and
stays. Meanwhile the winter has
been going on. But if on the second
of February there is so much mOiS-
ture in the air that clouds are formed
so dense that he cannot see his shad-
ow, he remains out of his hole and
spring follows at once.
Now this does not mean that there
is sudden jump into July weather,
and that it is time to plant gardens,
put on gauZe shoestrings and sum-
mer suspenders, but only that the
grip of winter is at once relaxed, and
that as the earth gradually thaws
out and gets warm, sap begins to
ascend in the trees and buds swell"

Worldly Wisdom.

AS there is worldly happiness
which God perceives to be no more
than disguised misery; as there are
worldly honors which in his estima-
tion are reproach, SO there Is world
ly wisdom which in his sight is fool
ishness. OF this worldly wisdom the
characters are given In the Scriptures,
and placed in contrast with those Of
the wisdom which is from above. The
one is the wisdom of the crafty, the
other that of the upright; the one
terminates in selfishness, the other in
charity; the one is full of strike and
bitter envyings, the other Of mercy
and of good fruits.-Blair.

What nearly every town needs is
more pronounced public spirit.
Civic stagnation is the result of in
difference and that Indifference has
its root in a selfishness that considers
nothing but private gain. Take any
community whose citizens are intent
only Oh their private affairs and you
find community destitute of pro-
gress and public spirit. Ii is short
sighted policy based upon the wrong
idea, that it does not pay individual
ly to spare even fraction of time to
d, vote to the general good. In fact
ii does not pay not to do it for in
these pushing days the town desti-
tule of that wholesom, wide awake
spirit which makes for the public
welfare, falls behind. Other towns
pass it by, draw away its trade and
leave it hopelessly in the rear as ii
fos,ilized specimen of antiquity, pet
riiied through cllnglng 10 deau
sellishness and obsolete methods.
Now is the time when many a
pleasant evening will be spent look
ing through the numerous seed cata-
logues that enter the rural homes,
and in planning for the garden, great
or small, that is to be made in the
>pring. The glowing description of
il,wers and vegetables and the high
IL colored pictures showing every
thing on mammoth scale, fire the
imagination. But, alas! the differ
ence in the size of the plant grown
by the average man from that in the
catalogue picture is usually so great
as to present discouraging contrast
rather than a gratifying comparison.

business will 60 on for a certain

if you want to get over good deal

better push it along lively.
The best thing to push it with

you stop pushing your ball it will
