Harford - All old soldiers and the people of Harford ad vicinity are requested to meet at Odd Fellows hall, promptly at one o’clock, where the following program will be rendered: Song, Invocation, Remarks, Reading names of soldiers buried in Harford Township, and Eulogy. Form and march to the cemetery, preceded by the children of the Sunday school, who will carry flowers. Since our last Memorial Day two more of our remaining few veterans have answered to the last roll call and it will be but a short time that we will have any of them with us at our Memorial services. And it seems but right and proper that we should lay aside our worldly affairs one short day each year, that we may stand with bowed head in reverence to our fallen heroes.

Glenwood - Russell and Elmer Marcey and Wm. Carey attended the Wild West show at Scranton, Friday.

Hallstead - The operations on the cut-off will not be started at this end of the work until about fall, as the right-of-way has not been all bought nor a final route decided on.  Frank Westgate has recently purchased one of the finest Percheron stallions that was ever brought to Pennsylvania. His name is Black Diamond; his registered number, 40161, and was purchased of Calkins & Angsbury, of Byron, Michigan, importers and breeders of Percheron horses. Black Diamond took first prize at the Michigan Sate fair last year. His weight is 1800, and to appreciate looking at a fine horse just step into Mr. Westgate’s barn, at Uniondale, and see Black Diamond.

Lanesboro - It is not always that women who look under their bed for a man are fortunate enough to find him but that was not the case with Mrs. Harry Keyes, last night, for she found the man and was not looking very hard for him when she made the discovery. Mr. and Mrs. Keyes had been attending the commencement exercises of the Lanesboro High School and returning home, about 10:30, Mrs. Keyes prepared to retire. She had only been in the bedroom a few moments when she called to her husband to come at once and in response to her calls he hurried to the room and was greatly surprised when his wife told him there was a man under the bed. Keyes acted promptly and in a few minutes the intruder was thrown from the house but before he got away he was given a severe trouncing by Mr. Keyes and searched to see that he did not carry away any valuables.

Montrose - A medium sized but intensely interested audience greeted Miss Lida Stokes Adams, vice-president of the Eastern district of Pennsylvania Women’s Suffrage League, who spoke in the interests of Women’s Suffrage at the Library building, under the auspices of the local W. C. T. U. Miss Adams gave an address, which carried with it a message full of truth and human interest. She stated that the most astonishing thing in their struggle for the ballot is the opposition with which they are meeting, and said it was the all important topic of the day, receiving more attention in both branches of our legislature, than any other measure before the session. This opposition is due to a misconception of the life and sex of women, the humanity of women not being considered.

She received internal injuries besides having her nose and face badly gashed, while the vehicle was completely wrecked. Dr. Fry, of Rush, was called to attend her injuries.

Springville - Will Stevens and his force of men are certainly making great improvements in our roads. Now if the powers that be would allow enough on taxes to make it worthwhile for a man to keep up a watering trough on the road, the traveling public would be greatly benefited. One can go for miles and not find a single trough, no matter how hot or dusty it is.
