when Mrs. Atha was to enter one Of
the Capital City hospitals for treat

Bailey Page. Of Hague, stayed longer
than she had intended. Others from
Hazelton went to Braddock ON the
500 Saturday. and drove home from
there. Some Of the Linton delega-
'tion started that way. They went to
the depot, purchased tickets and
boarded the train. Shortly afterwards
the conductor announced that the
blizzard still ragged at Braddock and
that there would be no return train
on the 500. The Lintonites 'vam-
oosed."
Bill Gearin seems to be getting the
credit for the hard luck, as 1t was the
third time he had gone away from
home. and the third time he had got

Just about the time 1t began to
look as though we would be four or
five days getting out came the orders
for the strike Of the railway men
Three or four hours before the hour
set for the strike came another order
pOstponing action for forty-eight
hours. Thus 1t was hard to plan any
way to get out Of the difficulty. Toe
