It is exceptionally fine. It is the rich¬ est toned violin and yours is the sweetest music I ever heard, so much more satisfactory than anything I can get over the radio, and your poems are beautiful. Thank you for coming with your inspiration and good cheer. The latch string of the Vice Presi¬ dent's Chamber is always out to you, and you must never come to Washing¬ ton without paying me a visit."

T. C. student, struck out nine, made five assists and hit safely three times out of three chances, the first a single, second a double and third a triple. Eddings scored the first inning when he singled, want to 8e«ond on Bailey's sacrifce and crossed the plate on Dolbear'a single. Mansfleld scored three rana in the second inning on four hits and & walk. Arnot never pushed a man around the bases until the sixth. In this in¬ ning they scored twice on a double, a walk and two errors. Mansfield scored twice in the same inning. Goodall singled and took second when Cleve¬ land walked. Both of these men came home on Brace's triple to center Fred Johnson, who plays with Scranton in the New York Pennsyl¬ vania League, pitched the last two in¬ nings and struck out four NEW MAIL SCHEDULE Inspector Cahill Meets Mansfield Men To Propose New Schedule. P. O. Inspector Cahill, of Bingham¬ ton, was in Mansfield last week for a conference with Mansfield citizens as to mail service and proposed a mail schedule something as follows: Leave Blossburg 9:45 a. m., after arrival of southern mail from Trout Run, Mans- feld 10:15 and reach Elmira 11:30. From Elmira a truck would leave at 9:05 a. m., reach Mansfield at 10:30 and Blossburg at 11:00. In the afternoon leave Blossburg at 1:30, Mansfield 2:00 and reach El¬ mira at 3:30, to catch Buffalo mail that night. Leave Elmira at 4:00 p. m., softer arrival of No. 1, Mansfleld 5:10 p. m. and Blossburg, 5:40. There would also be an outgoing mail from Mansfield at 4:00 p. m. for Blossburg to catch the bus for Trout Run and the south. The postoffice at Mansfield can avoid the congestion of Elmira post office by sending closed pouches to the var¬ ious trains with all important mail. With this schedule a letter mailed in Mansfield in the afternoon should reach Canton, Troy, Wellsboro or the Cowanesque the same evening. Let¬ ters from those towns mailed in the afternoon should reach Mansfield on the morning mail from Trout Run. With regard to Sunday mail service, this depends on how badly the people want it. This service was established by Postmaster Urell, we believe, and continued by Postmaster Comwell, for the convenience of the public through the accommodation of the postoffice clerks, as we understand it. The post¬ master is not required to distribute mail on Sunday. WILUAM BEALS William Beals, of Waverly, died Sunday in the Packer Hospital, Sayre. The funeral was held Tuesday at 2:30 p. m., in Waverly. Mr. Beals is aur- vived by four sisters, Mrs. Frank Lent, of Mansfield; Mrs. Levia Landon and Mrs. Elizabeth Ruggles, of Troy, and Mrs. E. Rice, Leollyn; also a brother, A. E. Beals, of Canton. Mill Children Touring tlie Nation I; These three mill workers of Gastonia, N.

She spoke of sonif of the reviews giv¬ en her, and paid tribute to some of the reviewers of "D:irk Weather."

White, and officers of the Wellsboro Electric Light Company, Mr. Wood was fixing one end of the wire to a large elm tree on the Morris Road, twenty feet from the driveway lead¬ ing into the Shepard home. It is assumed by the officials that Mr. Wood threw the coil of wire over the electric light wires runing along the road, and he met his death when picking up the end of the coil.

Tho com- -litfpo cnn^'stpd of th» foIlowir>r: ,T ' E!'0.-le. L. D. Van Dusen, W. W. -liarsh and Benjamin Rogers. A correspondent from Wellsboro says: Arrested on suspision of being the man who stole the pocketbook and market basket of Mrs. D. A. Morse, Saturday evening, a man who first gave his name a.s Frank Wright, but was later identified as Frank Carl, 19, of Caton Center, and his companion, Clifford Lane, 19, of near Rochester, confessed to Deputy Sheriff Walter R. Keagic, that they, with a third man, unnamed, were the trio who robbed the gas station at Elmer, Potter county, Saturday, June 15. They are being held in Tioga County jail, but no for¬ mal charges have yet been placed against them. Carl, or Wright, was arrested at a restaurant at Wain and Pearl Streets, after Sheriff Keagle had been notified by Mrs. Morse that her pocketbook and market basket had been stolen. Giving his name as Frank Wright, the man said he was in Wellsboro with a friend who was calling on a girl. Taking the man to the girl's home, Keagle questioned the friend, who gave his name as Clifford Lane and identified the other as Frank Carl, of Caton Center. He said to the of¬ ficer that Carl was a bad one and carried a gun. Upon a search of Carl, Keagle found cartridges, but no gun, but upon investigating Carl's auto¬ mobile, found a .32 calibre revolver back of the seat. Back a second time to the home where Lane was calling, Keagle placed both men in custody and after a gruel¬ ling the two confessed to the rob¬ bery at Elmer, but did not give the name of the third man, who, they said, was also implicated. Lane and Carl said they had hidden in the woods all day Sunday and Monday after the hold¬ up at Elmer and on Tuesday night ha^ rested at the home of one Lee Brim¬ mer at Keeneyville. Wednesday, they told Keagle, they had come to Wells¬ boro and rented a room at the honae of John Van Order. Saturday morn¬ ing they paid their room rent, accord¬ ing to their story, and gave up the rooms, with the intention of robbing th* pool rooni in the A.m«rie*n Iv«tfioa Building and the Keystone POIics station. It is understood that Carl was re¬ leased May 27 from the Elmira Re¬ formatory after serving one and one- half years for robbery. The theft which led to the appre¬ hension of Carl was perpetrated Sat¬ urday night about ten o'clock. Mrs. Morse, who resides in East Avenue, was returning from town. Between the homes of H. N. Sherwood and Fred Paterson, on East Avenue, the man dashed across the street, grabbed her purse and her shopping basket, and rer traced his steps, she later told the of^ ficers. But as he ran he collided with two girls, a Miss Thomas, of East Avenue, and a Miss McConnell, of Woodla^vn Avenue, and dropped both purse and basket. He ran down East Avenue and up Bacon Street. Mrs. Morse immediately notified Sheriff Keasle, who with Constable Dana Campbell, combed the streets before they found Carl in the restaurant and accused him of the theft.

It is exceptionally fine. It is the rich¬ est toned violin and yours is the sweetest music I ever heard, so much more satisfactory than anything I can get over the radio, and your poems are beautiful. Thank you for coming with your inspiration and good cheer. The latch string of the Vice Presi¬ dent's Chamber is always out to you, and you must never come to Washing¬ ton without paying me a visit."

NEW MAIL SCHEDULE
Inspector Cahill Meets Mansfield Men To Propose New Schedule.
P. O. Inspector Cahill, of Bingham¬ ton, was in Mansfield last week for a conference with Mansfield citizens as to mail service and proposed a mail schedule something as follows: Leave Blossburg 9:45 a. m., after arrival of southern mail from Trout Run, Mans- feld 10:15 and reach Elmira 11:30.
From Elmira a truck would leave at 9:05 a. m., reach Mansfield at 10:30 and Blossburg at 11:00.
In the afternoon leave Blossburg at 1:30, Mansfield 2:00 and reach El¬ mira at 3:30, to catch Buffalo mail that night.
Leave Elmira at 4:00 p. m., softer arrival of No. 1, Mansfleld 5:10 p. m. and Blossburg, 5:40.
There would also be an outgoing mail from Mansfield at 4:00 p. m. for Blossburg to catch the bus for Trout Run and the south.
The postoffice at Mansfield can avoid the congestion of Elmira post office by sending closed pouches to the var¬ ious trains with all important mail. With this schedule a letter mailed in Mansfield in the afternoon should reach Canton, Troy, Wellsboro or the Cowanesque the same evening. Let¬ ters from those towns mailed in the afternoon should reach Mansfield on the morning mail from Trout Run.
With regard to Sunday mail service, this depends on how badly the people want it. This service was established by Postmaster Urell, we believe, and continued by Postmaster Comwell, for the convenience of the public through the accommodation of the postoffice clerks, as we understand it. The post¬ master is not required to distribute mail on Sunday.
