The Kane Leader, one of our val ued exchanges came out recently with a new bead and otherwise beautified. There is one admirable feature about the barbed wire fence and that is they can't paint Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup advertisement on it. We are pleated to note that Mr. G. W. llobinson is able to be out agaiu. lie bad a pretty serious spell of sickness which pulled him dowu 15 or 20 pounds.

Thos. and Willis Brace received the sad intelligence last week of the death of their ynuagest brother, Benson Brace, at his home in East Green, Erie county. We are without particulars but learn his death was BuJdea and unexpected. Mrs. Catherine Stephens of New mansville, widow of the late J. P. Stephens who was burned to death, wishes through the Republican to return many thanks to the people of that neighborhood for the kindness shown the family in its recent sad afliictioa.

Her daughter has beeo at ber bedside almost cooctanily for nearly three years. In the case of James Gilfillan on behalf of bis daughter, teacher of a school in Green township, against the school district of tbat township, tried at the last term, and in which consid erable interest was manifested, the court gave a verdict in favor of Mr. Gilfillan. Mr. George W. Osgood, member from this county, departed for Phila delphia yesterday to be present at the meeting of the Republican State Com mittee, which takes place there to morrow. The Committee will fix tbe time and place for holding the next State Convention. Charlie Bonner and Arthur Kel ly, of Chicago, spent the holidays with friends and relatives in town, Mr. Bonner returning yesterday, while Arthur will tarry with us a few days yet. Both gentlemen are looking re markably well, and were warmly greeted by everybody here. The Philadelphia Times Almanac for 1888 is one of the Indispensable article for the coming year. It has been received at this office, and is one of the welcome New Years souvenirs. Its contents are abundant i.i statisti cal and political information, a verita ble cyclopaedia in this respect. The holidays passed off very quietly and pleasantly in Tionesta. Both the Presbyterian and M. E. Sab bath schools had Christmas trees, with appropriate and interesting exercises, the former in their church, and the latter in the Court House. The pres ents were abundant and pretty. Thanks to eur good and thought ful friend L. J. Perry of East Hicko ry, the editor's family was not turkey less on the holidays, but had the pleas ure of "doing up" in the highest style of the art, one of the nicest and fat test fowls imaginable. Many thanks, Lew, and may your shadow never grow less. The condition of Mr. R. R. An drews, whose serious illness we have before mentioned, became so alarming that it was deemed advisable to re move him to the asylum at Warren for treatment. It is hoped by his many friends that ho may speedily re cover from his illness, which some are inclined to believe is caused by a tu mor on tbe brain. "Billy" Diekrager, of German Hill, who went to San Diego, Califor nia, a month' or six weeks ago, writes us that he is busy at his tiade, car pentering; that the country out there is chock full and running over with business, and that thus far they have had nothing but the finest kind of summer weather, wilh everything green as grass but tbe inhabitants. D. W. Clark conducted George Cummings to the Penitentiary on Monday of last week, Sheriff Agnew being unable to go on account of sick ness. He was convicted at the recent term of court of stealing a horse, and sent up for two years and six months. On his way down he t Id Mr. Clark that this was bis third trip to that re sort. We give considerable space to a report of the institute held last week, which will be found full and complete. The institute was prouounced a most decided success by all who attended, and many words of praise are beard for Supt. Kerr for his untiring zeal and endeavors to make it such. Ex Supt. Hillard has our thanks for the excellent report we give. The American Express Co.'a moixy orders are about the neatest and safest way of sending mouey through the mails, a receipt being given with the order, thus making them absolutely safe.

Hunter, of Newtown, set up tbe cigars with a lavish hand at the Lawrence House on Monday, the cause of which may be ascertaiqed by a glance at the mar riage notices in this issue.

New crop 1888 of Lumbermen's Knbbers and Socks, Uuderwear, Socks, Mittens, Fur Caps, Ac. 2t. Wm. Smeabbaich & Co. --A frightful accident occurred on the N. Y., P. A O. railroad three miles west of Meadville on Saturday morn ing last. An express train going at the rate of 30 miles an hour collided with a heavy freight demolishing the entire passenger train except the sleep er. Five persons, engineers E. P. Swaiu and Wm. Googe, Firemen Ar thur Irwin and Edward Humes of Meadville, and W. II. Stevens of To ledo, were instantly killed, and fifteen others more or less seriously injured. In another column we print the advertisement of that sterling aud re liable paper, the New York Mail and Exprett, and we wish to commend it to our readers as in the broadest sense a national newspaper, most carefully edited, and adapted tn the wants and tastes of intelligent readers through out the eutire country North, South, East and Wett. It is a thoroughly clean paper, free from the corrupting, seniatioual and demoralizing trash, miscalled news,'wlich defiles the pages of too many city papers. From the Oil City JlUzzard we cull the following item,, which is of interest to our citizens: Tbe Cheat River Boom and Lumber company has been organized with John D. Hill ings, Thomas P. Week, and S. R. Co gan, of St. George; Thomas J. Long, of Holly Meadows, and Willis Hul ings, of Oil City, for corporators. The business of the company will be con structing and operating saw and shin gle mills, pulp mills, buying and leas ing limber lands and other lands. The principal office is to be at St. George, Tucker county, with a branch office at Oil City, Pa. Mrs. A. II. Steele a former highly respected lady of Tionesta, died iu New York on the 17th of December, last. Many old friends in this place will mourn the loss of this estimable lady, who became very popular with our townspeople during the family residence here, and Mr. Steele and the children left will have a host of sym pathizers among our people in his great loss. The Titusville Citizen has the following particulars: "The de ceased had been in poor health for some time aod her death was caused by congestion of the lungs. The fu neral services took place at their resi deuce in New York City on Tuesday, and were conducted by the Rev. J. Allen Maxwell, her former pastor. The body was placed in a vault and will be brought to Titusville for iuter nieut in the spring. Mrs. Steele was born in Meadvillo in 1849 aod was married to Mr. Steele when but eighteen years of age and five years later removed to Titusville where they made thoir home until last fall when they removed t New York. Mrs. Steele was noted for her kindness of heart and charity. Her husband and two children, a daughter Viuuie and a son Harry, survive her." HERE AND THERE. If there are any of our readers wanting steady work at good pay, they would do well to read the advertisement "Work for the Winter" in another column by the Chaso Nurseries, ot Genova, N. Y. Charles J. Frazior, ono of the prominent and popular brokers of tho Oil City ex change, accidentally discharged the con tents of a shot gun in his abdomen while out-hunting on the UCth ult., resulting in his death during tho following night. While climbing over a fence the hummer of his gun eaught on a twig. Peter Cooper was a man who began at the foot of the ladder and moved up through industry, patience and careful business methods to fame and fortune. Here is some of his advice to business men : "In all towns where a newspaper is published every man should advertise in it, oven if nothing more than stating his name and the business he is engaged in. It does not only pay the advertiser, but lots tbe people at a distance know that the town iu which you reside is a prosperous community of business men. As the seed is sown so the fruit ripens. Never pull down your sign while you expect to do business." "That's not a Sunflower, I want you to understand I don't grow Sunflowers. That's a Hi-an-thus, its moro like a Dah lia than a Sunflower." Such were .the words of an indignant woman when told she had a splendid specimen of Double Dwarf Santlower, growing In her front yard. One acquainted with this flower (Helianthus inultitiorus plonus) will not be surpiisod at the old iitdy's mistake, growiug about four feet high, covered with golden-yellow double flowers about the size of a Dahlia it resembles that plant very much. This little incident shows clearly how important it is that every one having a garden or even a shrub should own and study Yick's Floral Guide pub lished at Rochester, N. Y., prico ten cents, and a due bill for ten cents worth of seeds accompanies the Guide. Two young men from Tionesta and one from Wulnut Hend were arrested by Chief Good in Schopperlo's jewelry store this afternoon. While looking at some chains and other articles one of them slipped a watch charm into bis pocket, but whon accused of doing so denied it. When Chiof Good was sent for, however, lie be came alarmed and reluctantly fished the charm from his pocket. Tho young fel lows were taken before tho mayor aud given a hearing, but as tho search which was made revealed no other stolen or sus picious articles, excepting two pint bot tles of whiskey, and us they did not ap pear to bo regular thieves but simply thrco joung men from tho country who had taken a few drinks uud were endeav oring to bo "real sniui-t," tho uiuyor gave them an instalment of beusonuble udvice and let thciu go,, it being their Ur.st ap poaranco betbro him and they promised readily that It would be thoir last. niln! lard, 211th ult. Who can it have boen T The Stmat Law. It is notanunfre quent thing for us to receive letters from our farmer triends with regard to tho dis posing of estrays. We givo tho essence of tho law In the following paragraph which Is well worth cutting out and post ing up whore it can bo readily referred to. The articlo reads : "According to tho pres ent law In this state, stray cattle can be takon np and if tho owner neglects or re fuses to tender reasonable satisfaction to tho party injured by trespass, or if such injured party shall not accept the satisfac tion that may be oflbrod, it shall bo the duty of such injured party to iimko im mediate application In the manner direct ed by the act. In case the owner shall not claim his property within ton days after tbe stray is taken up, it shall bo the duty of tho persons taking up such strays to caiine the same to be advertised. And if tho owner does not appear within sixty days after such advertisement, tho person taking the stray shall mako application to a Justice of the Peace, who shall issue a warrant to a constable to make public sale of the stray and from tho proceeds pay all reasonable charges and damages, and tin costs of keeping, and the surplus given to the County Treasurer. If the owner shall appear within one year and prove his property, the surplus shall be paid to him, otherwise it goes to tlio county funds." Exchange. THE TEACHERS' INSTITUTE. At 2:30 p. in., on Monday, December 20th, 1887, the Annual Institute of the Teachers of Forest County mot lu tho Court House pursuant to tho call of tho county Superintendent, was called to or der by Superintendent O.

C, was introduced to tho institute and gavtfa lesson in drawing. MONOAV KVKNIKU. Music. A "Chalk Talk" lecture, by Georgo E. Little. If fate tried to conceal him by naming him "Little," she missed it considerably. In his lino ho is great. His lecture was fu'l of instruction sand wiched In between chunks of solid fun. He didn't talk much only just enough but with his crayons he did wonders. The appreciative audience that tilled the court room comfortably, went home pleased. It couldn't holp it. To have done otherwise would have been a reflection not on the lecturer, but on the audience. TUESDAY MORNIKO. Opening exercises conducted by Supt. Stockdill. An exercise in singing con ducted by Professor W. IJ. Hall, of Lan caster. Profossor Little continued his work in drawing. Supt.

Through them all Prof. Little emphasized the idea that drawing should be used, and taught, iu the schoolroom as a means more than as an eiici. He fully and satisfactorily ex plain the use of the flguros given in text bese n drawing. The object of the cx erciXlon these figures is to train the hand and eyes not only in drawing lines of a particular character but especially in balancing the lines that make up the com plimentary sides of figures. His conclud ing remarks were apt and appropriate. He said his proficiency with chalk and crayon was the outgrowth of a thought Inspired by a leeturo ho once heard Henry Ward lieoehor make. Iloechor said tho labor performed by tho hand was valua ble in proportion to the amount of skill the man put into his hand. He had acted on tho thought ; it had done him good. Singing, led by l'rof. Hall. A talk on School Government by Ex-Supt. Hillard. "Cube Root" by Prof. Whittekin. He illustrated its principles by means of a set of cubical blocks aud a problem on the bourd. TUESHAY EVENING.

Chadiiian How to teach the primary pupils Mr. Chadman used a chart to illustrate his talk. P,egin with the skeleton the bones. Bones of arms first. Do not teach names of all bones taught, but be careful to teach all names taught, correctly. Teach bones of lower limbs next note the analogy in shape, position, etc., to thoso of the upper limbs. Then bones of head. Next those of the client. Character and composition ofbouos. The ratio of animal and mineral matter tho bones contain at different times varies considerably. For this reason the bones of children are more elastic than those of older persons and are less liable to break when subjocted to a strain. Show how tfio bodes are connected at tho joints, and how tho cartilages protect the bones at the Joints. A. J. Davis, Principal of tho Clarion Normal, was presented to the Institute, and made a general talk, Instructive and in teresting. Ho urged concentration of effort and purpose as necessary to make the ed ucational work of tho county successful. Professor Putnam, of Glado schools, was introduced to the Institute and spoke briefly. WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. Music, lod by Professor Hall. Tho Du ties of the Teacher, a pnpor, by Miss Kate GucnU'cr. Lazy people should not attempt to teach school. Somo peoplo entertain the erroneous Idea that there is no work in teaching. We as teachers must be a unit to combat and to eliminate any occa sion for the statement or belief in such an idea. To try to please everybody means to fall to ploase anybody. Tho teacher is sometimes wrongly supposed to bea walk ing encyclopedia, Our example should be worthy of Imitation. The pupils know moro about the teacher the first day than tho teacher does abou the pupils at the end of three weeks. Dependence on others is a poor breakfast and a worse supper. Example is superior to precept. Tho teacher's hoart aud soul should bo in his work. The Query Box was opened, and queries discussed. The roll was called twice daily during the coutinuance of tho Institute. A lesson in Mathematical Geog raphy, by F. F. Whittekin. Ho illustrated the lessons by use of a globe, on which he drew the circles as he described them. Every school room should be supplied with a globe. Remarks by the County Superintendent.

He urged and emphasized the idea that along with a good head the teacher should carry a good heart with him. WEDNESDAY EVKHINO. Solo, by Prof. Hall. Colonel Sanford was introduced by Major Davis. Ac knowledging tho introduction by his friend Davis, Colonel Sanford prclaced his lecture proper by introducing himself ' more thoroughly," as he said. For moro than an hour and a hulf he held not only tho attention but tho hoarty good-will of his large audience. Rounds of applause interrupted the lecturer not once or twice, but often and olten. Laughter, not only in ripples aud small waves, but big bil lows rolled along tho walls of tho court room. THURSDAY MORNING. Opening exercises. A losson in music. Minutes read and adopted.

The following resolution was read and adopted : Resolved, That the Directors of Forest County in the selection of teachers are very unfaithful in the performance of their duty if they permit sectarianism or rela tionship to intltiencn them in their se lection. They should select the best teach ers they can get. Miss Kate Guonthor, on behalf of the W. C. T. U., occupied a littlo time in gath ering statistics relative to the teaching of Physiology and Hygiene lu the schools of the county. Colonel Sanford presented A. J, Davis and Supt.
