Friday next will be " Black Fri day" in Pennsylvania, there being ix executions in different parts of the State. The stock of log this winter at tho different saw mills in tills county is very light compared Willi previous winters. The oil business at Grant Mills is rather quiet at present. There is oil there all the same, as we believe the future will attest. An effective medicine for kidney diseases, low fevers and nervous pros tration, and well worthy of a trial, is Brown's Iron Bitters. Workmen are excavating at the Catholic Church, and are dumping the dirt at the lower side of the church. A roud is to lie located along the hill. The Brock port and Keystone lumber Co., have in 5,000,000 feet of boards, all but 000.000 feet being pine, and 110,000 cubic feet of Square timber. The "speckled beauties" of the mountain streams hereabouts will suf fer as the fishing season commences next month and the fishermen being fully equipped. The high sidewalks about town Bhould be provided with railings. These places are dangerous especially on dark nights, or when u fellow is u little too full of cider. The great want of Ridgway at present is houses to rent. A number of families are prevented from coming liere because there no houses. Will our men of capital awake to the necessity, And supply the want? Tuesday last brought forth more kinds of weather than any day in a long time. The thermometer ranged from 60 above to zero. The wind blow, It rained, the sun shone, and finally a snow storm set in which lasted sometime covering the ground. You can keep your soft place now my little "boss" you have done well the bidding of your masters. What do we understand by popular representation? Ans A few men In a back room. The New York Store is done tak ing inventory, and is beginning to fill up again with spring stock. Just re ceived new stock of Domestics, spring clothing, and Ladies and Men's shoes. Everything will be sold at close figures. Call before purchasing elsewhere. Do not forget the New York Store. Do your trading there. Have your envelopes printed with your name and address, the cost is but a trifle while many a valuable letter might be returned that otherwise would be lost or only recovered after a journey to the dead letter office und back. Then have them printed it will save you time and may save you money. Get them priuted at The Advocate office. J. S. Hyde's new saw mill at Bough and Ready, just outside of the Borough limits, will soon be ready to run. The mill will be run by steam and is complete In every particular. Mr. Hyde owns enough hemlock up the valley from the mill to keep it sawing twenty years. He also bos standing 60,000,000 feet of pine timber. Who says all the lumber is cut in this country? The wlud blew almost a gale here on Tuesday last. Tbe whirligig gates in tbe court yard fence flew around like a windmill. Tbe old liberty pole swayed to and fro threatening to top ple over at every breath of the wind. The cover of the scuttle bole on the top of the Court House blew off and came down to the ground In a hurry. Fortunately no one was injured as far aaheasd froia.- Fernonal. . ' Capt Schconing was at Bradford this week. Mrs. Derby has tomato plants in the fourth leaf. B. F. Ely and F. C. Ely were at Buffalo last week. W. H. Hyde's new house Is nearly ready for occupaucy. O. O. Kelts, and wife of Kaue, were In town this Week. The Commissioners of Elk county will be in session to-morrow. D. B. Day is building a two-story addition to his store building. Hon. J. L.

Murphy, of Wilcox, was in town on Saturday of last week. Amos K. Ilouglitaling and Lon. Carman of Portland, visited Wilcox this week. Alfred Sherman who has been very pick for the past two weeks' is getting better. Frank Nicholas, Ed. J. and C E. Luther, started Monday morning for the pigeon woods. Judge Whitinore loaded eighteen cars at the Eagle Valley mill last week with 180.000 feet of hemlock lumber. Mr. .1. E. Miller, Supt. of con truciion of the Rochester and Pitts butgh U. It. has been In town several days. Justice O. M. Montgomery, of Wilcox, was In town on Monday last bringing witli him a prisoner, arrested for shooting at a couple of school chil dren. The young folks of town will amuse themselves in a sociable gather ing on next Friday evening at the residence of S. A. Olmstead, corner of South nnd Elk Streets. The new borough officers, except ing school directors, go into office the first Monday in April. In the council the only change is that Mr. Scliram, retires ami Mr. Flynn takes his place. A Sly Committee Meeting. Held on the sly In some one's hack mom yesterday was the meeting of the County Committee of. the Republican party of Elk county. We received tiiis information on the sly. And will have more to say about it next week. The little boss made his point at the people's expense. And the people are long suffering and kind. O. M. Mont gomery, of Jones, is the delegate and bo was instructed for Beaver. There can le no possible objection urged to Mr. Montgomery but to the manner of the election, all men should cry halt, The little boss lias had his triumph? When will the people have theirs? Pigeons. - The woods wore full of them last week at least it was so reported. The inhabitants of Ridgway were awake to the conflict. Every person who owned, or could borrow, beg, or steal a pun, brought it into requisition and hied to the woods. In the morning flocks of the birds left their roosting grounds and flew to their places of fceeding. Then was the time for the army of sportsmen (?) to be awake und ready for the slaughter. The pigeons from half-past seven until niueo'clock in 1 he morning flew with more or less regularity, und tbe hunters popped away. There were many more misses than hits, which was a good thing for the birds, but an occasionally lucky burgher inadea eouuting shot, and bag ged his game with the consciousness of u Roman who hud done his duty. Thieves brokeinto A. SwartzRoss' establishment on Saturday night Ins,t,at about ten o'clock Mr. Ross had closed up the shop hut a few minutes before the thieves made the entrance. They broke a window at the rear of the building and taking dowu a stick that was used to hold it dowu, raised the window and passed throughlhe back shop into the front or store part of the building. Ed. Ross a brother of the proprietor who works In the shop, opened the door aud went in ofter something, wheu the thieves took to their heels and escaped by the way they entered, taking with them a large number of silk handkerchiefs, about 30 pairs of sleeve buttons, neck-ties, and sonic other notions amounting in all in the neghborhood of $100. Geo. Bcamer gave the parties away who were interested in the robbery and ex plained where the others could be found. John Sexton, was arrested at Johusonburg, by Carl, Jim, and Geo. 11 hi nes. John Jennings and James Clark were arrested at Kaue by A. Swartz Ross, Carl and Jim lihines, and Sam Hilderbrand. The thieves were followed up the track until found. They were brought before Esquire Gresh on Wednesday morn ing, Beamer pleaded guilty, the rest not guilty, and the four were commit ted to await tbe action of tbe May term of court. Part of the stolen goods have been recovered. i . Monday evening there was a row at Johusonburg between railroad men. Hungarians on one side and Germans and Irish oa the other, which resulted in a German having bis skull cracked. He remained unconscious for four hours but is likely to recover. An Irishman received a severe scalp wound. He showed great pluck und fought against half a dozen Hunga rians but tbeir clubs finally brought him down. He will likely recover. The account of the wounded on the Hungarian Bide has not been received lip to the riour or going to press. Dr. L Williams dressed, the wounds. bon't Stand In Tonr Own Ltgfrt. The people of Ridgway generally are noted for enterprise and open handed generosity. Perhaps as much so as any community that exists any where. This being an acknowledge fact speaks volumes for Iho character of its inhabitants. We all desire the prosperity and advancement of the material interests of the place, there fore all hands should take hold when trfl opportunity presents itself to fur ther these Interest. And when such n time comes don't stand In your own light. The Rochester & nthVirg R. R Co., a strong company under the Presidency of Mr. Walston H.Brown, of Pittsburgh, are building a road through our Borough which will be when completed one of the best equip 'ed roads in the country. The entire road from Buffalo to Brnokvllle Is now located and a great deal of the grading already completed, and contracts will he let in a short time for tho grading of the entire line. From Ridgway to the mouth of Toby (lie road is nearly ready for the ties. And now 600 men are employed between Bradford and Salamanca, while nearly 1,000 men are at work south of Ridgway. The bridge across the Clarion at- Hall's farm which will be 350 feet long, or two spans of 175 feet each, to be built of iron is folic put up at once. This bridge is the longest of any on the route ex cepting the long Iron bridge near Springville, Cattarauguscounty, N.Y.. across Cattaraugus Creek, which will be 514 feet long nnd 140 feet high and will cost musonary and nil $75,000. Even thebridgesncross culverts will be of Iron. Mr. Rees of this place lias the contract for one across Island Run, and has the job nearly completed. The rails on the entire line will be of steel and 00 lbs. to the yard excepting on heavy grades where the rails will be 07 lbs. to the yard, ull along this company have acted us though they incut business, and they still continue to push the work as fast as the weather will permit. Ridgway is at the end of a division and is located just right for the location of a round house and machine shops. These shops would bring a class of skilled mechanics witli their families to swell the population of our Borough. And would add more to the wealth and prosperity of tbe town than any Im provement ever made here. Hundreds of men would make their home here and thousands of dollars would find their way into the colfers of our citizens. Another thing these shops would lie a substantial improvement, and a lasting one. Look at Renovo for instance whore a large town lias been created solely by having the P. & E. shops located there. Ridgway bus the chance now by a little effort to have the B & P. shops here and a little effort will secure the prize. De lays are dangerous. And some other town niayj get in ahead? Will our men of capital act in tiiis matter? Even if it .should cost a few dollars will you not be repaid ten fold. Who will have the enterprise to head a pupulur movement which shall not lag until wo secure the best prize Ridgway lias had offered in many aduy? Talk it up on every corner, for this matter is one of the greatest concern to us all. All together then and we will win. Proceedings of lloroiigh Council. Ridcjway, March 20, 1882.

IT. . "Tact." . What Is tact? Consulting a dic tionary we find the definition, " adroit ness in adopting one's words to cir cumstances, nice discernment," etc, Certainly a desirable quality to pos sess in the rugged path of life. "It would from many a trouble free us, and many a foolish blunder" to be able to so discriminate In the use of words that they may fall upon the ears of our hearers soothingly, In a word, to so Involve our Identity with that of others, that our individuality would cease to exist. Have we not had enough "tact" In the so-called temperance reforms. Have not poli ticians been usiug "tact" and whisky to the disgust of every right-minded American citizen ? Have not the rum sellers been using " tact " to evade the law until America, " the land of the free and the home of the brave," Is deluged In a flood of rum aud lager beer and polutcd with soul-killing in fluences ? Are wc to don our "immaculate kids " to handle filth, crime, blood and degredation, meanwhile making " tact " our watch word that we may not unmercifully offend any person, or any person's greut grandfather, who perchance In t be ages afar down in the past may have loved hiscupof toddy? Did our Saviour so teach ? His words were " woe unto you scribes and hypo crites," did He not say "I am the man." Did not St. Paul use "tact" to evade the mob who cried "away with him, kill him!" Docs Gov. St. John fear to offend the rum sellers of Kansas? The fol lowing is an extract from a letter written by a Lutheran clergyman of that State. "On Inst Sabbath mornine. Gov. St John, Issued a proclamation call ing for the arrest and conviction of all violators of the law for the arrest, conviction, and removal from office of all officials who fail to discharge their duties as officers of the law. For each successful prosecution, In either of the cities named as refractory, lie offers a reward ranging from S100 to$o00." What He Lost. " I've been thinking since I came into the meeting to-night," said a once poor inebriate, "ubout the losses I have sustained since I slimed the total abstinence pledge. I tell you there isn t a man in tne society, who nas iost more by stopping drink than I have. '' Wait a bit till I tell you what I mean. There was a nice job of work to be done in the shop to-day. and the boss called for me. " (live it to Law," stiid he, " lie's the best work man in the shop." Well, I told my wife at supper lime, and she said, " Why, Iiiuiri, lie used to call you the worst You've lost your bad name, as a workman haven't you ?'' That is a tact, wife, says 1. And it ain't all I've lost in the last six months, either. 1 iiad poverty and wretchedness, I've iost them. I had an old ragged coat, and a shockin' bad hat, and some water-proof boots that let t lie water out at the toe, as fast as they took it In at the heel. I've lost them. I had a habit of cursing und swearing, and I have got rid of that. I had an aching and heavy heart, sometimes, and worse than all The rest, a guilty conscience. I thank God I've lost them all ! Then I told my wife what she had lost. You had ini old, rngircd crown, Mary, says I, and you had trouble and sorinw, and a poor, wreiclied home, und plenty of heart-aches, for you had a miserable drunkard tor a husband. Miry! Mary ! thank the Lord for ull you and I have lost signing the pledge." Siokly Justice. (Tuuipio fcSUir,) Generally, when a poor man is ar rested for Kettlue drunk and making u disturbance, he is drugged Into court, given a hasty trial, and is either fined or sent to jail right away. When one ot the teliows who deal in the vlulf that makes men drunk und disorderly is arrested, he manages to get the case postponed from time to time, and nearly always gets cleur. The law's defects help him out. He lias money. He can get the best legal talent. An uudolted I. or a misspell ed word, or a bit of perjury , or some thing else is utmost sure to turn up In his favor. This may sound rough and harsh, but is nevertheless truth in nine cases out of ten. Oue or two things will happen sooner or later. Liquor will rule America or the people will rise in their might and put a final stop to the sale, manufacture, and importation of the cause of most ot die crane, misery and shame. When the testimony of courts and of observation is great that this vice of intemperance is the source ot mucii pauperism, taxation and crime, it is surpassingly strange mat we nave not moral power enough in the community to restrain the frightful traffic. Temp erance ell'orts are to be encouraged, but the hydra-headed monster to lie slain is the legalized traffic in that which fills our prisons, feeds the gallows, and makes the people groan under the tax ation that pauperism and crime beget. New York Observer. Temperance includes the timely letting alone of that which is to be let alone. Temperance always involves total abstlnauce from some things. It is sheer nousence to claim, as some do, that temperance implies the actual use of everything in moderation: that to be temperate one must indulge moberately in strychnine and lauda num, and'whisky, wine, and turpin tiue. . Clay Trumbull. Don't take temnerauce Into poll tics; don't take it into the pulpit; keep It out of the Sunday-schools; it is too secular a subject for the week of prayer; don't be always talking about it; let every one enjoy his own opinion; religion lias nothing to do with it. All these are extracts from the devil's book of proverbs. Star of Hope. Martin, the Murderer, Doomed. Trenton, March 15.
