Mrs. Aaron Thomas living on the farm of Andrew Black west of town met with a peculiar and very serious accident on last Saturday evening.

The mule they were driving suddenly shied and ran about twenty rods. When the young man came up with the buggy, -Mrs. Thomas was getting out and he saw that she was hurt, her face being covered with blood. She walked to the house but it was found that her skull was fractured.
very critical.
The cause of the acc ident remains a mystery. It is believed by some that she was kicked by the mule and by others that the starting of the animal threw her forward on the dash-board. Another theory is that some one mischievously threw a rock which struck the unfortunate woman, but nothing is definitely
known.

The entire house was darkened except for “the weird, fitful light from the many jack-o’-lanterns and upon the entrance of each guest, little Miss Garnet Hurst and Lillian Ashton dressed as ghosts acted as guides from the door to the two dressing rooms provided. When all the guests, numbering forty-five were assembled partners were chosen by an arrangement of numbers and all unmasked. They were then seated and the ladies of the club served refreshments of bread and butter sandwiches, baked beans, cold slaw, ginger bread, pumpkin pie and coffee. A huge jar of cider that was placed in the bay window in the sitting room was next attended to and ail ate and drank their fill. Favors of white and yellow chrysanthemums were given, the club colors being yellow and white. After eating the time was pleasantly passed in fortune telling, story telling, and listening to songs and other music by the members of th'club. Other music was furnished by Miss Emma Miller. The magic hou:' nidnight. when all good ghosts should vanish soon arrived and an enjoyable evening came to an end. The guests departed voting the Chaminade Club a royal hostess. The club is not yet a year old. but if its members succeed in their purpose as they did with their entertainment its
life will be a long one.

HALLOWE'EN PARTY
Tiie Veronica Club gave a Hallowe'en party at the home of one of Its members, Mrs. Fred Eader, on Morton Avenue Saturday night. The house was decorated In Hallowe’en style, pumpkins, and candles occupying very prominent places throughout the rooms. The guests were received through the window Instead of the door. The various means of entertaining were quite unique and everyone especially enjoyed the serving of pumpkin pie, cider, cake and apples in the dining room. The hostess was assisted by the club members during the evening and all had a jolly good time.
There was some excitement this afternoon when L. T. Evans, of Warren township, election inspector for the township, was charged with conduct that would make him incapable of serving in the capacity of inspector. It was charged and witnes* stated that Mr. Evans had made an election bet, and this is specifically provided against by the statute under which the election boards serve. Mr. Evans declared, however, jhat it was not his money nor his wager. The money was posted by him for another, and he believed it did not make him incapable of serving in the poPftlon. He filed an affidavit to the effect that the wager under discussion was not his money. He stated that he proposed to serve tomorrow and risk prosecution, as he believes that the law does not cover his case.
