Coal is gradually becoming more plentiful in this village, buit the price is much higher than before or during the strike and the increased burden of expense is most seriously felt by the majority of our citizens. The special revival services at the Methodist Episcopal church are pro ductive of much substantial good. They will be continued through the week with cottage prayer meetings each afternoon, except Saturday.

The sale of the plant of the Water loo Organ and Piano company on Tuesday, it is believed, will result in the resumption of operations shortly after January 1, 1803. The products of the old company have won a high and merited reputation, while the company has given employment to a large number of skilled workmen, thus contributing in a liberal manner to the prosperity of the village. The plant of the Waterloo organ and piano company was sold at the court house in this village Tuesday morning, at bankruptcy sale. The successful bidder was the First National bank, of this village, as trustee for the bondholders, to whom the property was sold for $25,000. The amount for which the plant was sold is regarded as low, when com pared with the inventory price of $66,000. It is probable th\U t...o able plant will now paso hands of an enterprising company, and will be placed in operation again. The village of Waterloo is enjoying a great degree of prosperity. All its old industries, excepting the Organ and Piano factory, are running full time, and with the addition of a num ber of new ones that have evidently come to stay, there are none idle here unless from choice. The demand for business places and modern homes is steadily increasing, due to the influx of people who are on the watch for steady and reuumeralive employ ment. Property owners generally are exhibiting a disposition to make im provements^ and all our residents have material cause to enter more fully than ever into the real spirit of Thanksgiving day. Farmer.

Peter Shuster and his wife, two aged residents of the town of Seneca Falls, narrowly escaped death last Thursday night by asphyxiation from coal gas. They live near Dutchers tavern, nearly across the road from their son William. Early Friday morning their daughter in law, Mrs. Jennie Shuster, went to the house occupied by the old people, on an errand. Getting no response, an entrance was effected and the house was found to be filled with the dense fumes of coal g-as that was still escaping from the heating stove. Mr. and Mrs. Shuster were found lying as they had retired the night before, in an unconscious condition. The doors and windows of the house were quickly opened and the fresh air admitted soon expelled the deadly gas which had been in possession so long and was so powerful that the leaves of the house plants drooped and hung wilted from their stalks as though blighted by a severe frost. Dr. Fred Lester was summoned, and though it was at first feared that the aged people had passed beyond medi cal aid, toward noon Mrs. Shuster revived. It was not until evening, however, that Mr. Shuster exhibited signs of regaining consciousness. Mrs. Shuster said they had started a fresh coal fire in the stove the night before, and after allowing it to burn for a time the drafts were closed and they retired as usual. Both have since entirely recovered from the ef fects of inhaling the deadly gas, which, an eye witness slates, judging from the action upon the house plants, they must have breathed in gradu ally increasing quantities nearly all night. A remarkable feature of the case is that their birthdays are only two weeks apart, and Mrs. Shuster, the older, lacked but a few days of being eighty two years of age. Both are, however, remarkably well preserved in constitution and health, and hale and hearty for that ad vanced age, and these facts doubt less materially contributed toward their recovery from an experience that must have proven fatal to many younger people. They have a num ber of children grown to manhood and womanhood who rejoice greatly at the almost miraculous recovery of their aged father and mother. Choice line of stationery at Knight’s.
