FIVE YEARS HENCEWe May Ride To Philadelphia

On Trolley Cars.

TO REACH WASHINGTONPliiladelpltians Have u Project of Great

Magnitude on Foot.

A Rood to Cross Tills County from Ricgcls-vllle loCutvcr'a Lnke.

Inasmuch as trolley rumors galoroaro flitting over tho horizon, ono needsnot bo surprised at anything. AHchumo is on foot which, if carried out.will mean much to tho people of -W»r,run itud part of Sussex counties. In arecent interview with ono of tho par-ties financially interested in some oftho Uucks county (Pa.) trolley roadsit wan luarncd that prominent Philndel-phiaiiB aro interested in the newproject—but which linn really beenin contemplation for aomo timo.Its projectors do not promise to havepart of tho line iu operation by LaborDay nor everything working withclocklike regularity by Christmas, butthem's a certain olllco in tlio Land TitloUuikiing, ono of Philadelphia')* nowskyscrapers, wherein reposo a mostcomplete set of drawings of the pro-pose*! line. Of course it may bo thatthey were drawn for amuaoment, butit's hardly probable that two experi-enced civil engineers would havo spenta whole week laat winter driving overWarren county juat to pass timo away.

Tu begin at the beginning, there isalready in existence a lino operated bytrolley from Philadelphia to WillowGrovo and (mother from thero toDoylestown, while, half a dozen char-ters and extensions of charters covereverything between Doyleatown andEiiston. One of the proposed lines, atleast, will reach Riegelavillt', Pa,, onits wny to Easton. From Riegelsvilleanother Hue ia projected to cross thoDelaware to Riegelsvilie, X. J., thenfollow tho Muaconetcong Valley upthrough Fiiiesvillt', Warren PaperMills, Blopmsbury, Asburyand Wash-ington ;thonco to Oxford, Buttzville,Hope and Bhtirstown, with an exten-sion to Culver's Lake, and perhaps outhrough Culver's Gap and up to PortJervis, X. W From Euttzvillea branchline runs to Belvidore, crosses the riverand connects at Bangor with the Slate.Belt road, now building.

Charters are already in existencecovering the lino to Riegelsville, andbut for Now Jersey's unfriendliness toelectric railways it would also havebeen chartered in. this State ere this.The next session of the Legislature willdoubtless be marked by the introduc-tion of a bill covering this scheme.Vital importance is to bo attached to

of tho road hinges upon such a contin-gency:11:; " ' : : " " . ; " . ' / ' "

Tho active promoters are interestedin the Bucks County Railway, tho onlytrolley line in Pennsylvania usingchair cars in its service ; the New'ownRailway (formerly the Newtown, Lang-horno & Bristol), which has'a contin-UOUB lino from Doylestown to Bristol,a distance of twenty-seven miles. Thisroad is laid with 7S-lb. standard "T"vails, upon: which 2->ton cars, capableof making 50 miles an hour, are oper-ated. Nearly all this lino runs overprivate right of way, and fast time ismade. The same parties also havo aninterest in one of the two projectedroads north of Doylestowu, and whenaffairs reach the proper stage they willdoubtless show their hands in connec-tion with all three of the roads men-tioned. ;

The plane for the New Jersey linecontemplate a road, as previously out-lined, to be laid with heavy uT_".rnilstiiul-balliiated throughout, upon whicha good rate.of speed canjbo maintained.'If a bill nan be gotten through the Now.Torfley.Logtslatnrft-pormiUiiig olop.tricroads to carry freight, the line will beoperated by.that power and equippedfor a general freight as well as pauueu-ger business. But if no freight can bocarried the building will either bipoat-poned until such a law is secured, orelae will be built iu a lighter mannerand operated by a new power, which isin successful operation at Shelby ville,Indiana. This power is much cheaperand less bothorsome in ruraT districts,whero a frequent service is not needed.

This line, if permitted to carryfreight,-.would prove a very importantfeeder, to the Pennsylvania Railroad, atRiegelsville, N. J., and the Quaker town& Eastern at, Riogelsvilleu,.PflM withwhich it would work in sympathy. Itwould add.a now. color and several lessfigures to the freight bills in 'Warrencomity, whero the Lackawanna, Lehigh& Hudson "Elver- and •' SusquebannaroadB dictate their own terms to ship1

pors and consignees. ~

Tho distance from Philadelphia toRiegelaville, by way of Willow Grovo jand Doylostown, ia about titty miles,nnd this would bo covered in threehours. From Riogolsville to Washing-ton would tako an hour and on toBlalrbtown''another, allowing for thoheavy gradionts to bo overcome.

Tho lino to Culver's Lako would boadded to catch the summer travel, butit would not bo a profitable division inwinter. _ ....-••••».-«'•*...-....„.

Carrying freight tnis /onil would boa proflt-oarner from the start, and tothis may doubtless bo attributed thofact that no undtto prominence hasbeen given tho project, lest Bomo othercompany also awaken to tho possibili-ties of such a line. No activo opera-tions will begin until after tho Legisla-turo moots again and the matters inquestion nro settled deilnitoly ono wayor the oth*»r.

Tho value of the proposed lino toWarren county is far greater than mayat first appear to tho casual observer.It would atriko a section of countrywhero business would bo plentiful andtlie advent of the new road would bohailed with delight.

Let tho people along tlio propoBedrouto tako an interest in tho projectand not aak threo thousand dollars forevery ninoty-eight-cont spot of earthneeded for its building, and tho roadwill eventually become a reality.

Hardly had this been donowhen Angle showed up and,getting the

| girl out one day, induced her to marryj him. The Hither was furious but, rea-lizing that no good could come of mak-ing any further objections, he forgavethem, Tho newly wedded pair cameto Washington and taking quarters attho Now Windsor apent their honoy-moon there, Mrs. Angle rarely leavingthe room except at meal-hours. Herhusband claimed to be a book agent inthe employ of the Shepp PublishingCompany of Philadelphia, and fromtime to time he made short trips to thosurrounding towns presumably in theinterest of his buoincss. On Monday,July 30th, ho went to Portland, Pa.,and secured a horse and carriage fromS(imH-<Sc Harris, the liverymen, agree-ing to return in a couple of hours.SVhon ha-failed to como buck thatnight a member of the firm started outand found his man at StrcudsbuVg pre-paring to drive to Columbia, this coun-ty.

It has been stated that the trusts haveniRde merclmidtee and inanuftic taredgoods cheaper, and thereby bu:ietlte:t theworkingninn. Every oae is convinced byprncticiil exparience in everyday life thatttils is untrue. The SUUKUIM Oil Companyis quoted as having done so much for tbepour man by rudinjinstne price of oil fromtwenty-rive ceiiU to ten cents per SAIIOII.Who ntive tbey benelitert tQe mo.-t, tnugeneral public or tbe company? Whenoil v.M3 twenty-ilv-p onnts per gallon, thecompany p.iia n dividend of from/six ..touight per cent, and now oil Is ten cents pergallon and they pay a dividend of fromihirry-tivu to iurtj ' i»or cent. Tbia -;n«atseem strange, but the improved appliancesin getting the"oil, in transportation «ndpreparing for use, and tbe utilizing of tbemany hj-produeta of the oil, has made itpossible to do ihis. Instead of oil beingten centa per gallon it should aeli for &ixcents per gallon, and yet pay a dividend offrom fifteen to twenty per cent. Oil incheap but it would be cheaper if the Stan-dard Oi^Co. was divided into Jive or sixcompeting companies. The same is trueof almost every trust concern.

ii id said that the present administra-tion mis caused great prosperity in all de-partments of tmdu. There bus beuit a

- n- demand in some departmentsi by Che witra and runiois of wars.

GANGERTime was wncn Cancer was considered as incurable as leprosy.

Physicians and friends could give little relief or encouragement toone afflicted with this terrible disease. Even now doctors know of no remedy for this fearful malady; while'admitting it to bea blood disease, they still insist that there h no hope outside of a surgical opcraUou, and ml vine yuu tuhave the Cancer cut out,but at the same time caunot assure you that it will not YeUirii. You may cut or draw out the sore, but another will come inIts place, for the disease is in the blood—is deep-seated and destructive, and beyond the reach of the surgeon's knife orcaustic, flesh-destroying plasters. Tbe blood must be purified and strengthened, the system relieved of all poisonous effetamatter before the Cancer sore will heal. ....

S. S. S. is the only medicine that can overcome this powerful and contaminating poUoti and force it out of the blood. Itbuilds up and invigorates the old, and supplies new, rich,-•life-giving blood. S.S. S. is n purely vegetable remedy: no mineralcan be found in i t ; the roots and herbs from which it is made contain powerful purifying properties that act directly upon,the blood system nnd make a safe and permanent curs of Cancer, It lias cured thousands, why not you ?

Cancer is not always inherited; your family may \m U ce from any taint, yet your blood may become so polluted that a severe» » » » .'••"• ' ~m:. '".""--'. '.":."" ^"'"''" -"' , ' ..,. . and stubborn form of tlie disease may

impure Blood Invites Disease* '. . . or hurt, a little pimple on .the eyelid, lip

or nose, a small lump on the jaw or breast, a harmless looking wart or mole, and other causes so insignificant as to attractlittle or no attention,; If you have an obstinate core, don't rely,upon salves or ointments to cure it—begin with S. S. S.at once; it will cleanse your blood and prevent the formation of cancerous cells.

Mt». R. Hhircr, t a Main, Mo., write*: " A ftmait pimple came on my j«w about one inch below theenr on the left aide of my face. At iir« it K«ve '»•= no trouble, and I did not think It was anything »eriousuntil t tie Jaw began to nivell and been me much inflamed. At the flame time the sore bezan to ppread nndcut into tlie flesh, ant! gave me intense piiln. I tried everything I cotil J hear of, tint dothfnjr did me anygood. I tlieti IK-L'AII the u«e of s. S. S., and after taking tevernl bottles the Cuuccr healed, and thereia now no sii-n of the disease. Tin* was two years Hgo, and I am itill enjoying perfect health."
