FOUND DEAD III ROAD WITH HIS NEGK BROKEN
eeorge Fowler, a Resident Chin, Probably KHlea by
Horse Be
George Fowler, a single, middle aged
man, who recently bought a farm near
Clifton, met a tragic death about 6:30
last night some two miles and a half
west of Scottsville, near the Charles
Studeman farm.
Just how the accident occurred will
never be known as Fowler was 'alone
and c o one saw him fall from the buggy
in which he was driving or knew of the
accident until a passing vehicle ran over
the dead man's foot. The whip, blanket
and whiffletree lay near by. Fowler's
neck was broken. Several vehicles had
passed him on the road near Scottsville
and noticed that he was driving very
rapidly. It is supposed thst his horse
took fright and runaway.
Caledonia News The Noon Hour.
A lady in the country near Caledonia suggests that while we are "Doing it for Caledonia" the business places should be more careful to keep open during the noon hour and says that a number of country people who cannot get to town until about that time are obliged to wait |somewhere [until one or half-past one. She thinks this would help to keep trade at home.
TOLD INTERESTINGLY OF EXTENDED WESTERN TRIP
"In and Sill,
Mrs. Hanford A. Edson was the hostess at the meeting of the Scottsville Literary Society last Monday evening, and Judge Selden S. Brown presided. Miss Jean Price played a piano solo as an introductory and the members sang the Star Spangled Banner at the close of the program.
Rev. Dr. Edson expressed the regrets of the society at the inability, owing to illness, 01 Colonel Edward E. Sill to give Lis expected lecture on Out of a Rebel Prison." Colonel while in prison at Charleston, S. C , was cognisant of the death there of Captain Charles MeVean of the 8th N . Y. Cavalry. Captain MeVean's fate was for a long time in doubt and it was not until some years after his death thst bis family had positive evidence of it.
As Colonel Sill was absent Dr. and Mrs. Edson took his place and told of their trip to San Antonio, Texas, last year.
Mrs. Edson gsve a valuable paper on the history of New Braumfele in Texas, where early in the forties of the last century a "number of German princes endeavored to establish a German principality in the new world—an almost forgotten incident in the romance of the history of our country.
Dr. Edson spoke of the trip, which, in company with Mrs. Edson, he msde up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers lsst May, from New Orleans to Cincinnati Miss Bessie Giles wss elected to membership in the society.
The meeting then adjourned to Monday evening, December n t h , when the fortieth anniversary meeting will be held.
The program for that meeting will be
Mendon Weather. The town of Mendon, in which
is situated the village of Honeoye Falls, went "dry" November 7th. A wit in the town sends these pat verses to the Honeoye Palls Times on the future weather In that town: Weather Forecast tor October—
A Long Dry Spell Predicted. Oh ! Johnny, have you heard about the
votes on Tuesdsy last, Old Mendon went no-license and "wet"
days will soon be past; For only just eleven mouths, we'll find
our gin and beer, And then Sahara's desert drought will
strike the people here. No more will we foregather at Patsey's,
Hop's or Woods, For they will cease to handle our favorite
brand of goods. The schuper will be empty, and there'll
* be no rum or rye, And the corkscrew will be useless, for
Old Mendon has gone dry.

P XLIX—PEACEMAKERS
^Copyright, 1910, by The Llnscott Publishing Co.] [Registered In accordance with the Copyright Act.]
EACEMAKERS! A strange name to give to great guns, the dewtiucttve monsters of modern warfare. One single well directed shot from one of them is able to sink an ordinary vessel, and a few bits can destroy a battleship or topple to the ground the most strongly built building
e x t a n t But peacemakers they are! Compared with past ages the period since the battle of Waterloo has been an age of peace. What is the reason? In the language of M. de Bloch, the perfection of military weapons is making it mora and more Impossible to appeal to war as a means of settlement of the grave questions which have hitherto been so settled.
Formerly the states of central Europe were ready to fly at each other's throats on the slightest provocation. Prussia took the lead. The needle gun gave her an immense superiority over her enemies, , and peace through conquest was established among the states now known as the German empire. It w a s the German artillery that with astonishing rapidity won at Mete and Sedan. Paris heard Its voice and yielded, and peace c s m e to Europe and has remained among the leading nations since that time. The Krupp guns have apparently established a permanent peace between the two countries.
For several centuries there w a s no peace in Cuba. Spanish misrule kept the natives in a continuous state of rebellion. The great guns of Admiral Samp-ton's fleet thundering against the Spanish warships at the battle of Santiago in a few brief hours virtually brought peace to Cubs, a peace that Is likely to

FIRE DESTROYS BARNS 0 1 CLIFFORD DAVIS FARM
Shortly after nine o'clock Sunday evening fire was discovered in the barn of Clifford Davis, which is situated about one-half mile south of S o t t s -ville. The fire had gained such headway that it was utterly impossible to save the building, although M « Davis and others succeeded In saving the live stock, A new poultry house was also entirely destroyed, as was a large stack of hay. The origin of the fire is Unknown and the loss is all the greater as the buildings were practically new, the barn on the same premises having been destroyed by fire little more than three years ago.
County and Vicinity. Bliss has smallpox. Dalton's cheese factory closes to

Mt. Morris votes next Tuesday on spending $95*995 to install a municipal water works plant and bring water trom Silver Lake nine miles away.
Nunda's High School's principal, Prof. Clarence Hebron, resigned on account of impaired health to go to Atlantic City. William H. Cone of Syracuse will succeed him.
Dansville's big manufacturing plant, the Power Specialty Company, has been connected with the Dansville and Mt. Morris Railroad by a two-mile switch.' The firm pays $2,(XX) in salaries weekly,
Attica's gas wells have failed and the Alden-Batavia company now sells gas to one of the Attica companies, which in turn supplies the consumers, charging 50 cents per thousand. A competing company, owned by Ex-Senator F. C. Stevens, seeks the aid of the Public Service Commission to compel the Alden-Batavia Company to sell it gas on the same terms as to the competing concern.
PEACEMABEM.
remain despite the unstable character of the Cubans. That fight and the fight ta Manila bay ware factors in the world's peace.
In the far east at the battle of Yalu Ruver the victory of Japan over China w a s due to the high quality of quick firing guns and the skill of the gunners. By giving Japan the leadership in the east that battle contributed to the peace of the world. Again, In the war with Russia powerful guns, handled by skilled Japanese gunners, once again proved to be peacemakers.
In ancient days vessels put forth with passenger* and merchandise, dreading the pirates that Infested the high seas. Now they fearlessly sail to all quarters of the globe. Great guns have brought peace to the high seas. The "Long Toms" and the machine guns psve the way for trade and the miaston-sry. For the most part the high perfection of modern weapons has brought peace to the world, and even when wars occur the perfected engines of destruction are humanity's chief benefactors. Through their tremendous destructive powers wars are of short duration. Peace comes by their aid before the awful specters, famine and starvation, lay their blighting hand on the conflicting- nations.

Dear Sirs— A gentlemen came to me of his own accord, and wanted to recommend your remedy.—Cyrus G. White, of Arkport, N. Y.,—he thinks it saved his life. If you write him, he will give yon a first-class recommend. H e bad an abscess in the tectum, which broke once and was gathering again, and the doctors did not think he would live. H e was advised to take the Remedy to purify the blood, which he did, and the abscess went away, and be is well and cannot say too much in its praise. Your Remedy is selling well here, and giving entire satisfaction. I take pleasure in recommending it, and frequently start a new customer with it.
