An East End Accident
An accident, which might have resulted seriously, happened last Saturday evening, about 8:30 o'clock at the foot of Spring street in East Emporium.
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Webster and daughter Miss Irene, were driving from their home at Canoe run, to this place, when they collided with another horse and buggy. It was very dark and consequently the drivers in either carriage did not notice the approach of the other. Mrs. Webster and Irene were thrown from the carriage and very badly bruised and the carriage was a complete wreck. If the horse had not been a trustworthy creature, the result would certainly have been serious, as the occupants would have been dragged some distance in a runaway. The harness was repaired and another carriage secured to complete the drive to this place. The occupants of the other carriage, whose names we have been unable to ascertain, were also badly shaken up and their carriage broken.
Delightful Visit
Mrs. Dr. Lulu H. Fulton, of Chicago, who recently visited her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. J. T. Healey, at this place, and many friends throughout the county, having a delightful visit, writes the PRESS as follows: Mrs. Sadie Wiley-Jones and children invited myself to enjoy an automobile trip to Austin and Costello, last week, returning by moonlight, which was indeed a delightful trip over the mountains. Mr. E. S. Smith, the chauffeur, proved himself exceedingly careful.
Perry - Cook Controversy
The public are certainly having an abundance of interesting reading handed them on account of the recent claims made by the famous Artic explorers Perry and Cook. The old pole has caused hundreds of lives to be sacrificed and millions of dollars expended, yet hundreds of others will sacrifice their lives to prove that both Perry and Cook did not reach the true goal.
From present indications there will be plenty of interesting reading the coming winter months, interesting to those who may contemplate a trip to the North Pole.
A Pretty Plant
Mrs. Henry Lyons, of West Creek, visited the PRESS sanctum last Saturday morning and presented us with a beautiful potted white China aster, in full bloom. The plant holds 16 blossoms and has several buds. It certainly is a very pretty plant. Kindly accept our sincere thanks for the beautiful gift.
Extra
Do you want a $9.00 Spring Coat for $1.98? We have a few Ladies Tan Coveret Coats left which were $8.00, $8.50 and $9.00. Rather than carry them over we will sell them for $1.98 each. There are also a few which were $5.98 and $6.98, these you can have for $1.50 each. R. KUEHNE, Emporium¹s Big Store.

His sons were present when death came, but his wife was unable to be present on account of feeble health.
His remains were taken to Driftwood on Monday night where interment was made.
The Passing of Mr. Harriman
One of the world¹s greatest financiers and railroad managers has passed away, Thursday, Sept. 9th, 1909, at his country estate at Arden, N.Y. His death caused world-wide regret. The funeral took place last Sunday afternoon at Arden. We note that two of the casket bearers were former Cameron county gentlemen - W. A. McClennan and Wm. Viner - both of whom have for years filled responsible positions as Supts. for Mr. Harriman.

Married
Jackson Thomas and Miss Clara Edgar were married on Wednesday evening at the residence of the bride¹s brother Mr. C. H. Edgar on Whittemore hill, by the Rev. J. F. Anderson of Emporium. The PRESS extends congratulations.
Controversy
Many of the "Knowing Ones" now claim that Cook or Perry, or both, were successful only when they adopted the lines pursued by the pioneer polar explorer, Dr. Eliha Kent Kane.
Sterling Run
Long Lord was the guest of his step-mother Mrs. Della Lord a few days the past week.
We hear through good authority that through the stubbornness of a certain party there is danger of the railroad that was to be built up Sterling Run, falling through. We hope this party will get their eyes open before it is too late and see what prospects there are ahead for Sterling as well as the county if that road is built.

A Terrible Smell
Having occasion to pass over the bridge west of town several times during the past week we noticed a terrible stench, which is caused from the water being black and slimy. This state of affairs is a disgrace and people who are compelled to put up with this violation of the law have to do something in order to protect their families from an epidemic of some kind. The stream is very low and the water is almost stagnate and to have the sun beat down on it for days the stench is dreadful. A CITIZEN.
Struck It Rich
A. Pelky and Charles Sanders who for the past three years have been in the Innoko mining district, between the Knakowim and Yukon Rivers have just returned to Seattle, bringing with them a supply of the much desired yellow dust.
They had one nugget that was worth $505; another worth $300. The first made in this district was made three years ago, and Sanders and Pelky immediately went into the district to look up claims on Gains Creek.
Pelky and Sanders modestly refuse to state how much their share is, but it is known that it is large. - Seattle Times.

Large Crowd Enjoyed Celebration
Surpassing any Celebration ever held in the history of this community, this year¹s American Legion Homecoming carnival of fun overshadowed in excellence all previous major holidays of this county.
Engaging in the mammoth carnival, persons from all communities near us and many visitors from neighborhood states made this community their home during the three day period which opened Saturday and closed Monday evening.
A street parade of visiting firemen rang up the curtain on the Celebration Saturday evening. Firemen responded from neighborhood cities and were commended highly on their fine performances.
Continuing Sunday, the Legion surpassed all plans by providing entertainment throughout the day. Churches inaugurated special features and sermons in commemoration of the Celebration. Ball games were played both here and at St. Marys.
Monday, the gorgeous spectacle of a giant street parade was given to the people. The parade comprised all drum corps here for the day, private cars, industrial and fraternal floats, CCC cars, and many others. Prizes were won by the Logan and Jones Garage who took first place in the Merchant Division and by Sanitary Dairy who took second honors. Port Allegany CCC won first place with Sizerville Camp second. Hygrade Sylvania and Straub Brewery, St.Marys were outstanding in the Industrial Division and the Sylvania Employees Assoc. float won first in the Fraternal and the Red Cross float attained second money.
The Celebration was the largest ever attempted and the fine response by merchants and citizens is gratifying to the Legion.
Emporium¹s celebration will be well remembered by all who attended. Even the weather man was kind to the World War lads.

This was not done as some seem to think to injure the hunters, as the Game Commissioners will see that 2,000 or more acres of this land is always kept open to hunting. Game Refuges are being established all over the state this year and it seems as if this is necessary if we are going to keep our game, especially our deer and birds.
