The Need of Sympathy.

In the struggle and battle OF life
there is none strong enough to bear
the contest alone. All need sympathy
and help, and they must have it or
sure. disaster or defeat will overtake
them. He who thinks himself safe,
when his lifebark rides gaily before
the breeze with sails flied with winds
Of prosperity, is often the weakest of the
weak when the storm and tempest
come. Thus In the hour OF sorest trial
many weak woman has often
been strong and brave to indure, where
stalwart manhood has succumbed and
drifted helpless and discouraged before
the gale OF adversely. Life is sweet
ened and made beautiful by sympathy
its asperities are toned down and its
rough places made smooth by the touch
OF gentle hand or a tone OF loving
voice-even the severest trials may be
endured and the heaviest burdens
borne when aided by very little
Thoughtful and precious help OF this
kind.-Punxsutawney Netcs.

Value of a Grange.

A subordinate Grange is the most
practical and most natural means OF
promoting all the interests OF rural
community ever conceived in the his
tory of the world, for the following
reasons:
1t contributes to the social life by
frequent regular meetings In which the
art of sociability is 30 agreeably and in
formally taught as to fascinate rather
than repel those participating in the
exercises.
1t contributes to the high moral stan
dard by affording convenient and agree
able society for old and young in which
the highest standard Of morality is
maintained, thereby preventing asso-
citation OF Its members in society OF the
opposite nature.
1t contributes to the happiness Of
home by the mental recreation afforded
all members of the family In the various
Grange gatherings attended, thereby
broadening their mental vision and in
creasing their happiness, which is sure
to be reflected in their home life.
It contributes to the material pros

Eugene V. Debs
Addressed Big Crowd
Socialist Chief Attracted Peop1e
From Towns Twenty
Miles Away.

Fifteen or twenty people from this
section attended the lecture of Eugene
V. Debs, the noted Socialist chief and
former presidential candidate, at Du-
Bois Sunday afternoon. Many of these
were not in sympathy with Socialism
but went simply to hear a man who,
whether right or wrong, has made a
nation sit up and take notice. Debs
Is rapid and skillful speaker, not in
the same class with Bryan as an orator,
perhaps, but almost as forcible. He
makes his arguments very clear and
chooses illustrations 80 pointed that the
audience Is for the time carried along
with him. Much Of his address was
political, but Debs is also master of
pathos anG parts OF his speech we're
genuinely eloquent. To know Debs ny
his stage talk and manner would give
a very false and one-sided idea of
him. Unlike Bryan, he has but little
grace and dignity of manner in speak
ing. Tall and ungainly 10 stature, he
walks with a slight stoop and when
speaking his favorite attitude is a
crouching position, with arms extended.
His merciless condemnation Of existing
governmental conditions also gives the
impression Of man more destructive
that constructive. But to meet Debs
face to face, feel his warm hand clasp
and look into his clear and steady eyes
is to form better and kindlier i'm
preston. In private talk he shows
himself all that Riley the poet called
him-a great warm hearted man, sim
cerely trying to better the wrongs of
his "comrades"-the laboring men Of
America.

Eleven Men Burned By An
Explosion of Powder at Eriton
Cigarette, a Bag Of Powder and
"Jumbc" Part Company
Suddenly.
NO ONE FATALLY INJURED.

Early Monday morning a wave ol
excitement was stirred up here by q
report that an explosion had occurred
In Eriton shaft, and that number OF
men had probably been killed. The
Courier posted bulletin as soon as
definite advices could be secured, which
gave the welcome intelligence that al
though quantity of powder had ex-
ploded and number OF men had been
severely injured, real "mine horror
had been averted.
The explosion occurred in the cage,
on its first trip down into the mine with
men of the day shift, and there were
ten men aboard.
A man called Jumbo" was smok-
ing a cigarette, and one OF the persist
ent reports is that he was taking
powder down in sack under his coat,
and that spark from the cigarette
found its way into the sack, which was
concealed because it is against the rules
to carry powder into the mine that way,
and the explosion resulted. Several OF
the men carried cans Of powder and two
were exploded, making terrific blast
that momentarily stunned the men and
filled the cage with flame and i'm
mediately set fire to the clothing Of
the men.
The moment the cage reached the
bottom Of the shaft the men began
tearing off their clothing to keep from
burning to death. Several we're very
severely burned, but it is believed that
all will recover. eager Frank Devins
telephoned to the top OF the shaft and
assistance was sent down and the in
jured men were taken to the surface
and given first attention, and then
taken to their homes.
Another report on the possible cause
Of the explosion was that one of the
men carried an open lamp in the cage
and that the powder may have been
ignited from it, But the cigarette re.
port is the one the men claim is almost
certain to account correctly for the
accident. The Courier was informed
by workman at the shaft that it re-
quired close inspection to prevent a
number Of the foreigners from SNUG
Cling powder into the mine in sacks,
which is strictly against the regula-
tions.-DuBois Courier.

The Association has a number of
other important projects under consid-

The range of topics discussed at the
meeting Monday night ran the scale
from new railroad projects affecting
Reynoldsyille, opening Of coal fields,
industrial possibilities, freight rates,
etc., down to cleaning the sidewalks Of
snow and slush. Anything that tends
towards the bettering of local condi-
tions goes in these meetings and it is
noticeable that the pessimistic gloom
that used to appear so frequently in the
panic years, has disappeared and in its
place there is whole-souled interest In
building up the town without regard to
the past.
The next meeting will be held the
first Tuesday in March, at which time
arrangements will be made for nominat-
ing officers for the coming year. The
election takes place at the first meeting
