Very Enjoyable Party.

Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Metzger, Jr., gave
a very elaborate whist last evening to
about sixty of their friends. Their
very handsome residence was tastily
decorated for the occasion. The third
floor, admirably fitted for such occas-
ions, was devoted exclusively for the
chief -whist-while the
first and second floors were admirably
suited for entertaining large party.
Whist continued until midnight when
the guests were treated to bountiful
course dinner, served upon tables
decorated with ferns. The occasion
was voted one of the most beautiful
and enjoyable occasions of the season.
The pleasant festivities closed about
one O'Clock, but not until Miss
Grace A. Walker and Geo. A. Walker
favored the party with several choice
musical numbers, which were heartily
applauded. 1t certainly was a swell
reception and Mr.. and Mrs. Metzger.
40 pleasantly and happily situated,
were congratulated by their guests.
The following guests were present:
Mesdames and Messrs. J. Paul Felt, G.

FATAL ACCIDENT
NEAR BUFFALO.
Joseph Harbot Brakeman on B. s.
A. V. Division, p. r. r., Was
Killed Last Sunday Morning.

Joseph Harbot, eldest son of Mr..
John Harbot and Mrs. Hertansey Har-
bot, Third street, met with a fatal &C
cident early last Sunday morning,
about 1915 O'Clock, which resulted in
the loss of his life. He was employed
as brakeman on the Pennsylvania r.
r., making a run between Olean and
Buffalo. The accident occurred some
where between Chaffee and Protection,
N. Y. The last seen of the unfortun-
ate young man, was when the train
left Chaffee, he starting at that time to
set brakes to go down the hill Into Pro-
lection, and no one will ever know Just
how the accident happened, When
the train reached Protection they miss
ed him and after pulling the train in
to the siding, the crew returned on the
engine, a distance of three miles, and
found their fellow-workman cold in
death, lying on the track. The body
was badly bruised and the right limb
was nearly severed from the body.
Walter Harbot, brother of the deceas-
ed, was working on train following
the one on which Jos. was working
and was the first in the family to be
told of the sad accident. The remains
were taken to Buffalo where they were
prepared for burial, and were then
brought to Emporiun, arriving here
on train No. 5s at two o'clock, Monday
morning. "Joe" as he was familiarity
called by all who knew him, was born
August 1st, 1881, at Trout Run, Pa,
near Williamsport, but has practically
spent his entire life in and around En-
porlum. He has been in the employ of
the railroad company for the past five
years and was a trusted and faith
full employee. Deceased is survived
by his father, Mr.. John Harhot and
mother, Mrs. Hertansey Edwards
Harbot, two sisters, Mrs. Clara Murray
and Mrs. Rose Jones, also two broth
ert Messrs. Perry and Walter, to whom
the Press and the entire community
offers the deepest sympaty. The fun
