Smallpox Still Raging. All efforts to check the smallpox epidemic In Bristol appear to bo unavailing. On Monday of this week the boarding house of Mrs. Sarah HeiUman at the corner of Washington and Pond streets, was quarantined, Patrick Gallagher becoming afflicted. Considerable adverse comment is hoard in the neighborhood as to the manner in which tho persons who were exposed to the contagion have scattered ovor the town.

There were twenty boarders at the HeiUman house on Saturday and row tho only persons about tne building are the patisnt and an attendant. It is claimed that on Suturdaj it was known that Gallagher had the smallpox and on Sunday the boarders wore busy clear up Into the night removing their effects. Bods, clothing, dishes, were movod out and other quarters obtained by the boarders and on Monday the case was reported to tho Board of Health and the house quarantined, School Board Deadlock. A deadlock occurred at the meeting of the Bristol public school board held on last Thursday ovoning. The board mot in special session to elect a sucessor to Mies Meta P.

Douglass, a teacher In the primary department, whose resignation had been tendered and accepted at the previous meeting. Six or eight applicants were placed in nomination and after twenty ballots had been taken without an election, it was decided to adjourn to meet again this evening, when it is anticipated the deadlock will be broken. Only ten of tho directors were present and an applicant required seven votes to be elected. The directors present were John K. Wildman, E.

five "Do yon know Italian?" "By sight only. I am not on speaking terms with I on Jit. In humorous vein the Perkasie News rnakob tho following observations: In the Republican campaign in Bucks county there have been many unique features. Not the loast of these has been the literary productions of the distinguished candidates. They are all valuable and occupy positions for ready reference in our library of political reference.

However, us between Chamberlain's calendars, Nicholas' tirst-aid-to-the-wounded farmer, Rice's billot doux signed by the BBBcssor'e list, Heckler's arraignment of Trusts and promises of jobs, Mayne'i strenuous and spocinus plea for trolleys, wo incline to Heckler's otter of preferment. This is a personal matter between man and man that there is no getting away from. There is no opportunity to hide behind "organization," or "policy." The attempt of the Grundy-Minster gang to prevent the transportation of other than the political followers of the gang to attend the county convention was about as high-handed a piece of work as has come to our notice in a long time. Senator Penroso in securing a special on the Pennsylvania Railroad to carry the supporters of the Grundy- Minster gang to the county convention on the 1st of September, imposed as a condition that tickets be sold on that date from a certain point, with the object of inconveniencing whatever opposition might develop to tho plans of the gang. More than one applicant for transportation unangoments were with the in- bnt will not.

he says, canvass the county! (18 in former campaigns. Captain Frank G. Edwards, of Bristol, the present Assemblyman from the Lower District, has not pat forth much effort up to this time, his extensive business enterprises interfering with his plans. His op po- entB assert that it would be inexpedient to nominate him for the Senate, as the candidate for Assembly will come from the Btime borough, George W. Straaaer having no opposition in the Lower District.

However that may bo the Captain's fnetide are anxious to know what he is uoing to do. William 0. May no, of Bristol township, has visited Doylentown eoveiiil times in the interest of his candi- dnoy, but hiiB not made a general cavaas, BO fui as is known. On the other liana, former Sheriff Irvin Aaron, of Yardley, has made a systematic canvass of the eounty, and says that if honest effort will i i to secure tho nomination. Mr.

Aaron is campaigner of experience and doos not intend to rely upon his popularity, but is "seeing the people, as they make the nominations," Lipplncott is visiting at is visiting relatives "Every Democrat should be enthusiastic in this Democrat. Enthusiasm is name for the average Democratic sensation. The condition amounts to one of delirious excitement. Hope sees a star as big as an ash barrel, ind candidates are plunging heels over head to get places on the ticket. Yes, the Democrats in Bucks county are enthusiastic I A Chat With "Phenom" Smith.

Manager John F. Smith, of the Bristol National League Basket Ball team, was in Bristol on Tuesday, having come from Manchester, N. for a few days rest at Atlantic City. Mr. Smith is manager of the Manchester base ball club and has practically won the pennant in the New England League race, His team is anchored in first place with fifteen games to the good.

Last week "Phenom," as his friends ike to call him, made a good deal for the Manchester club stockholders by selling or a fancy price to the Chicago National League club, Pitcher Morrisy and Outfielder Murry. They will join the Ohica- team at Boston on September 8. Parry Thackara, of Bristol, who signed with Manchester, was released and is now play- ng with the Newark, N. team. "Phenom" has had wonderful success managing championship teams.

During the past four years his teams have won the pennant three times, and finished second once. He has secured five offers to manage base ball clubs for next season but has lenewed a contract with the Manchester club. 1RVIN A A WHO WILL BK HOMUIATKD FOK 81 ATE SENATOR. 'ormation from the railroad officials, that no tickets from a certain station oould be lad on the first of September, AB common carriers the railroad company hud no right to restrict transportation to one political faction, and the matter being -aken to the front, tho exclusive arrangement made for tho Grundy-Minster gang was promptly vetoed, and another dis- 'eputablo scheme of those worthies frus- rated. The above, which appeared in our local roubled contemporary, is reprinted for ho purpose of amusing our readers and also as evidence of the forms ot insanity troduced during heated political campaigns.

Of course, as any sane person will know there is not the smallest atom if truth in the charges preferred. The 'Grundy-Minster gang" has not the lightest interest in trying to present any me purchasing all the tickets money can iuy. Sonator Pen rose nor anyone else lever suggested to any official of the rail- oad company that no tickets be Hold on eptember 1st to Dpylestown from any xint in this county. Wo understand that ho friends of John T. Fish tiied to buy ome laihoad tickets at a price less than he company would sell, but there is no oubt anyone can buy all the railroad ickets they want good for passage to Doylestown on Labor Day, if they have he coin to pay for them.

When questioned about basket ball prospects, Mr. Smith said: "Tell the Bristol people I will be on deck with a champion basket ball team," and hia eyes twinkled as he added, "and we will take special delight in downing the Trenton five. Klein will manage the team as last year, and all the old members have been signed with the exception of EveriDgham," said Manager Smith. The basket ball hall will probably be better lighted by the substitution of are lights in place of the inrandescents. The papor that was so blatant a few oeks ago concerning all the things that as going to happen to the "Grundy- tlinster combine," and exhausted its owors each week prophesying the dumping" of Strauser and withdrawing Aaron, is now squealing for quarter, ts campaign of Blander and vituperation as yielded nothing but disaster for itself.

tearful pleading is now made that the Grundy-Minster gang" permit favorite andidatos of our contemporary to have 10 ''accustomed complimentary votes in ie convention." The "gang" can aftord a bo magnanimous. County Commissioner Adam Martin, of lew Britain, has withdrawn as a candi- ate for renomination. In his letter of withdrawal on Friday, he I do, in strict observance of party ous- om and regularity, I cannot consistently sk that this rule (rotation) be ignored or iolated in my behalf." Next Monday being a oliday--Labor lay--there will undoubtedly be a large ttendance at the Republican county con- cntion at Doyestown. A big delegation will go up from the lower end of the county. A special train will leave Morris- Hie at abont seven o'clock- in the morn- ng and stop at all points along the road as ar as Torresdale.

The train will be witched upon the Reading tracks at Germantown Junction and the run made di- ect to Doyleatown. Special provision ill be made by the Bristol-Doylestown rolley to handle the crowds. In Upper Falls township a fierce fight is between John T. Fish and hia political dversarles. Fish is a candidate for ounty Oommitteeman and is opposed by ie candidacy of George Lynn, one of the lost popular Republicans in the district.

oth sides are confident of success and ich claims to have a majority of votes lodged to thoir support. Fish is armed with a bundle of railroad tickets which will be distributed to the faithful and it believed that his opponents are not in want. 'he Doylestown Intelligencer saya: The Senatorial situation is puzzling a arge number of Republicans. There are our announced candidates for the nomi- atlon, and yet three of them are making active canvass. Senator Hampton Bice, of Solebury, before the people, A Successful Harvest Home.

(Communicated.) The harvest home of the Penn Valley Church is now over and all look back upon it with satisfaction. The day, August 20th, was the that could be expected and goon after noon the woods began to be alive with friends from far and near. While the tables were being made ready, friend conversed with friend. Shortly after 1 o'clock the wagon conveying the fife and drum corps drew near, and after it had arrived in the woods, one more selection was played and then the first table was ready. It woul be useless to" say what good things were spread, for all who participated this, or any other year, know what the cooks of Penn Valley can do.

The afternoon went too swiftly, theie was no time for being weary. The moments were crowded by music, either by the fifes and drums, which were played by H. Dickel, William Fabian and the Messrs. Kellmayer, or cornet duetts by the Messrs. Kellmayer, or vocal solos by Mies K.

Kellmayer, cornet solos by N. Kellmayer, of Bridgeton, N. The music was highly enjoyed by all present. But, all things have an end, and go aid this beautiful afternoon. Darkness overtook the light and friends had to say good-by.

Of course, there were some exceptions here. The dishes were gathered, the wagons mada ready and eoon the woods were again black and lonely. And so we look back on the most successful harvest home of the Penn Valley Church. But, it was also the most successful from a financial point of view. After all bills were paid, there was left a total profit of one hundred and five dollars.

This is an advance over last year of about thirty dollars and the Penn Valley Church would like to make use of this oppartunity for the purpose of thanking all those who assisted so kindly in making the harvest home a success. We would especially think of those on tho stands; the waiters who waited on the tables and who got things ready and also the musicians. And, the Penn Valley Church would extend its thanks also to the harvest home committee--Mrs. Anna Margerum, Mrs. Lillian Bateman and Miss S.

T. Bruton. And the. committee wishes to thank all those who stood by them. So, after all is said.H all amounts to this, that the harvest home was the best and most successful in the history of this little church.
