The mail, with the exception of that
Of last Easter, was the heaviest known
here for years. 1t was made up for the
most part of post cards and small pack
ages, containing valentines, great
number Of which were posted in Dan
Vile and which had to be gathered by
the carriers while on their routes. 1t
was this delay that rendered it impos-
sible for the mail carriers to make

MIRACULOUS
ESCAPE FOR GIRL

Engineer Harvey Brumbach, of Sun
enger train from Mt. Carmel to Sun
bury on Saturday afternoon had one
of the most unusual experiences in his
railroad career, when little girl, who
was run down by the train, orawled
unhurt from underneath one of the
coaches after being dragged one hun
dred yards.
Mamie Jones parents are dead. She
is eight years old and lives with her
uncle John Haddock. Of Shamokin. On
Saturday'she started to visit her grand:
mother, Mrs Haddock, who lives at
Boydtown. She travelled on the Mt.
Carmel and Shamokin trolley line as
far as Goal Run. There she got off and
started to walk the rest Of the way on
the tracks Of, the Pennsylvania rail-
road. While she was crossing bridge
25, the afternoon passenger train sud
denly appeared around curve. The
little girl vas too frightened to move.
She was knocked down by the engine,
which passed over her body. The train
ran on hundred yards before Engineer
Brumbach could bring it to stop.
Then the little girl picked herself from
underneath the baggage car and start
ed to run down the track. One of the
trainmen grabbed her.
IL 80 al
ent, her escape was miraculous. The
engine, tank and baggage car had pass
ed over her. She was taken back to
Shamokin and removed to her home.
Outside of II couple of scratches on her
forehead, she was unhurt.

DISTRICT S. S. CONVENTION

Rev. a. J. Trey, ,gpresident of the
Montour County Sunday School as
sociation, has decided that in view of
the prevailing weather conditions it
will be better to postpone the time of
holding the convention in the five dis
tricts outside of Danville, from the
present month to the last week in
April. The district presidents have
been notified to that effect.
While no definite action has been
taken as yet it is probable that the
convention of district No. 5, compris-
ing the schools of Danville, will be
held before the latter part of April.
The inclement weather and the re-
sulting bad condition of the roads
both last year and the year before,
when the meetings We're held during
the first part of February. were re-
sponsible for the slim attendance at
the majority of the conventions i'll the
outlying districts.

WILL INVITE CONFERENCE

The Bloomsbury MethodiSts ON Sun
day voted to invite the Central Penn
sylvania Methodist Episcopal confer.
ence to meet in the First church of
that town in 1911. 1t has been thirty
years since Bloomsbury has entertain
ed the conference though the senti-
ment which eliminated in Sundays
formal invitation was started several
years ago, during the pastorate of the
Rev. William Perry Eveland The con.
ference meets this year at York next
month.
1t was expected by some that with
the completion of the new Pine Street
Methodist Episcopal church at Will
Transport the Central Pennsylvania
conference would be entertained in
that city next year. 1t is said now,
however, that the sentiment of the
conference is that Pine Street enter
tain on the next general conference
year, at which time larger accommod-
ations than ordinary are needed.
