HOW A FEUD AROSE

bis fathers friend was right. the true
boundry being a diagonal line with the
one about which they contended.
Nor was this all that was mistaken
in the matter. The disputants had not
long been buried when the railroad TO
whose contractors they had expected
to sell so many ties was discovered to
be running the line several miles away
from the property Of either and
through its own timherland.
One night when Eliza Simpson was
sleeping at home she was awakened
by the sound OF axes being driven into
the trunks Of trees. The sound SEEM
ed TO her to come from the direction
OF the boundary line. She sat up in
bed and listened. The ak men were
apparently vying with each other.
each striving TO strike more rapidly.
Eliza got up and went into her moth
er's room to awaken her, but by the
time she had succeeded in doing so
the sound had ceased.
The next morning when she had told
OF what she had heard all considered
that she had been dreaming. Never
theless she declared that she had
heard the axes distinctly, the sounds
coming from a point between the
Simpsons and the. Underwoods' dwell
ings. When she told her lover about
It he declared that II any such sounds
had existed he would have heard
them more readily than his fiancee,
since the Underwood house was nearer
the line on which the timber bordered
than the Simpsons. Eliza, who was
positive as 70 what she had heard.
gave him sharp reply, and he left
her In anger.
Eliza Simpson heard again the
sounds of axes on the boundary line
Since the double murder Of the heads
Of the two families the conditions had
been embarrassing, and the day after
Eliza's having heard the mysterious
ak men again Mrs Simpson went 70
Mrs. Underwood and told OF the oc-
currence. Mrs. Underwood had been
under a strain ever since the catas-
trophe and upon Mrs. Simpsons visit
lost her SELF control completely, de-
claring that she believed Simpson had
murdered her husband, who acted sim
ply in self defense.
The families OF the men who had
killed each other now came to open
warfare. The match between Eliza
and Frank was broken of. and no one
Of the Simpsons spoke to an Under

generation were becoming men and
women, and the generation after them
inherited the quarrel AS the families

GREEKS OBSERVE
THEIR CHRISTMAS

Christmas, with all its wonderful
spirit of good cheer, was celebrated
yesterday with great reverence ami
joy by Greek Orthodox Catholics in
this city. Relaxation after the long
vigil of Christmas Eve. followed by the
impressive rituals of Mass and the
blessing of the baskets containing the
provisions which have been secured
for the feasts which follow the SER
vices, occupied the greater part of
the day.
The solemn celebration Of the birth
of the Christ began on Saturday, when
the members of the different congre-
cations entered upon a fast which
lasted until the conclusion of the ser
vices today.
With the close Of the Mass and its
subsequent services, a two weeks
round of pleasure began. It will in
clude many church cermonies as well
as home entertainments.

PENNSY SHOWS
VIDE DEVELOPMENT

Indicative of the enormous indus
trial development in the United States
during the last fourteen years, and
of what the Pennsylvania Railroad
expects in the near future, are figures
just issued by that road which COM
pare the capacity of its freight yards
in 1897 and 1911.
Fourteen years ago the Pennsyl-
vania had facilities for accommo-
dating 103,7S9 cars. These have since
been enlarged to take care of 142,659
cars, and new yards have been added
to the system which bring the total
capacity up to 1872 1O4 on the lines
east of Pittsburgh and Erie,-an in
crease of SS,315 cars, or S5 per cent.
The new yards built since 1897 will
hold 49,445 cars. OF these, the one
at Northumberland, Pennsylvania. is
the largest, affording trackaee for s.
944 cars.
