The Brookville Republican tells this one on our former townsman, Clark Kepler: At an auction sale of the effects of the late Anthony Bonnett, held in front of the court bouse on Monday morning, our'genial friend J. C. Kepler Invested in a large bellows. A number of citi.ous who Inhabit the places where Mr. Kepler is wont to hold forth and who were ac quainted with the gentleman's ability as a talker previous to bis purchase o( the bellows are contemplating a removal from town since the news of his purchase bas loaked out. The following rapturous item from the pen of Bro, Bowen of the Oil City Blizzard all but Impels oue to sieze his bat and run for the woods "Now is the time to get out-of-doors. The call of nature comes from every field and w od aud garden, from every babbling brook and every song bird's throat. The green getting back in the trees, the apple blossoms, the wild flowers, all these and many other things beckon one away, and be is to be pitied who does not know, or, knowing, cannot embrace the springtime joys of out-of-doors." According to the public statement of an official of the dairy and food depart ment at Uarrisburg, the day bas passed when the manufacturer ol catsup can take the waste of the tomato canneries (which is merely colored water, and dirty at that) thicken it with starch, color it with coal tar dye, preserve it with acids and with a bright, attractive label sell It for tomato catsup. It is now made from ripe tomatoes, which gives it the natural color, and having the body of the tomato, no starch is needed. This is as it should be. This improved condition also applies to jellies, jams, preserves, etc. The services at the Presbyterian church last Sabbath were in honor of Mothers' Day, and the congregations both morning and evening were large. Rev, Mr, Bailey gave two splendid discourses, aud the special musio at the morning service was more than usually attractive as was also the singing In the evening, led by the male choir. Special efforts were made to have present the mothers who are not able to attend church reg ularly, and there was qui to a goodly number of them in the congregation. White carnations worn in their honor and remembrance were In evidence on every baud. The day was one of spring's love liest. In some comments on the observance of Memorial Day, the Reading Telegram suggests that "the best way to perpetuate Memorial Day and all of the great heritage for which the soldiers of the union lought will be to give the work of decking the graves into the hands of the school boys and girls, who can assist the men of the Grand Army, and when those men have answered the last roll call the services can be performed by the patriolio youth of the land." This Idea Is carried out in many places aud Is proving very satis factory, as it is a work In which the young people take much Interest, when properly aroused and guided by some sincere and untiring older minds and bauds. We used to rely a good deal on our good faithful brother Wenk of the Forkst Rkpuiimcan, for real live fish stories, that had the scent of cowslips and arbutus about them, but recently Brother Wenk seems to have lost interest in the shy trout ai(d the big Buffalo sucker. He used tobeavoritable piscatorial Audubon. We are glad to note, however, that Broth er Bowen, ot the Oil City Blizzard, and Brother Borland, of the Franklin News, are still loyal disciples of Ike Walton, and have no use for nature fakirs. Punxy. Spirit. Well, who wouldn't lose interest when after ten hours on a trout stream and about six measly little fellows In your basket you bave to sneak home the back way lo keep that bogie man, the fish warden, from catching you. An exchange says of the June bride; "She Is, by Immense odds, the happiest human being in the liinitable cosmos. As tbe first notes of Meudelssohn's Wed ding March strike her enchanted ears and she turns from the altar to march in triumph down the Aisle of Sighs ber snared and frightened Clarence on ber arm aud the nervous glances of ber friends focused upon bor, she Is proud as thrice 10,000 conquerors, Her smile is ecstatic; her eyes glitter with gorgeous joy. Otherwhere aud In otherwise hu man happiness never scales such stupen dous pinnacles. Compared to a June bride the man who has just drawn four aces in a poker game seems liko a melan cholia on the verge of seli'-destructiou." A project that Is arousing much in terest Is one that is very feasible for every viewpoint. It is nothing more nor less than a trolley line from Warren to Oil City. The Allegheny Valley otfers a grade for a road on the south side of the river all the way from Warren to Oil City and every town of any consequence In the valley is located on that side of the stream. There are a number of good towns, Tionesta, tbe Hickorys, President and others and Rockwood in the summer draws many. With a trolley line this valley would grow richer and the line would pay. There are a number of per sons in Warren and Oil City as well as in tbe towns along tbe route who stand ready to take stock In the line and help push tbe project to a successful completion. Warren Times, Send it along, We were recently sh own a rough draft of the plans of tbe new M, E, church for Tionesta. Tbe struoture is to be GSx74 feet, tbe main vestibule entrance is ut tbe south corner and a Sunday school room seating 150 at the north front cor ner. Directly back of this is tbe audi torium which will seat 800, On the south side of the building are three olass rooms capable of seating 150, and over these a gallery which will seat 100. Tbe pulpit platform is at about the middle of the back wall, with the pipe organ directly behind tbe pulpit. The keyboard will open Into the oboir loft at tbe right of the pulpit. Underneath tbe building will be a nine-foot basement. Tbe building will be made of the Ohio gray stone or the Hummelstown brown Btone aud In either event It will be a handsome one. -A letter bas just been received by our townsman, S. D. Irwin, from Cavite, Philippine Islands, from his nephew, Hiram L. Irwin, who bas been in the Asiatic squadron on board the Concord as Ensign, for the last year. This squad ron has mostly been in the Chinese sea. He says among other things: "A brief synopsis of our recent movements are as follows: After six months stay in the enterprising port of Shanghai we came south to the Philippines about March 1st, Here we went into dry dock, had annual target practice In Manila Bay and various shore drills, then came to the naval sta tion at Cavite for repairs and stores. On March 27th was transferred from the Con cord to the Helena as Senior Engineer Officer, by the Admiral. This Is a new line of duty and one I find agreeable and interesting. I like tbe ship better as it is larger and more comfortable, but we leave soon lor Hong Kong, then event ually going to Shanghai and the Ynngste River, our old station." His many friends in this section will be pleased to hear from him. Residence of John A. Dawson Burned. The spacious and comfortable home of John A. Dawson, at Stewart Run, about five miles from Tionesta on the Pleasant ville road, was completely destroyed by a fire which broke out about two o'clock Saturday morning last, presumably from an exploding lamp. Had It not been for a valuable dog wbicb was kept in the bouse at night and which awakened Mr. Dawson's son, George R. E. Dawson, the entire family would bave been burned to death, Tbe bouse was occupied by Mr, and Mrs, John A. Dawson, who slept in a room on tbe lower floor, and by Mr. and Mrs. George Dawson and their five chil dren, three of the latter, with their par ents, occupying a large room on tbe sec ond floor. On the dresser in this room was kept a burning lamp, which was the ouly fire iu tbe house. Just bow the Gre caught is not known, but George was awakened by tbe peculiar whining of the dog, which was walking back and forth at the foot of their bed. Springing from tbe bed he called to bis wife and they carried the children down stairs, awak ened the older people, and all escaped without injury. When he was awakened George says that the entire partition against wbicb the dresser stood was on fire and in a few minutes the flames would have enveloped the bed of two of tbe little girls. After getting tbe family out he returned to the room but could not remain on account of tbe dense smoke. Seeing that all hope of saving the bouse was gone every energy was put forth to save a part of their clothing, which they were able to do. All tbe furniture was burned with tbe bouse. The families of F. M, Hoovler and Elmer Bort.er, who live nearby, were aroused and ren dered valuable assistance in saving prop erty. A little store building near the house was saved by spreading blankets over It, and tbe work of a bucket brigade. Tbe loss will be about $5,000, with $2,000 iusuranceon tbe building and $1,500 on the contents. They will rebuild at once. The bouse was one of tbe historic old mansions of the neighborhood, having beeu built sixty-two years ago by James Dawson, father of John A., and was throughly overhauled and repaired last year. It bas been occupied continuously by tbe latter for the past thirty-six years. James Dawson bought the farm In 1810, and erected the first grist mill in this section, which is still standing. He was also a veteran of the war of 1812. Tbe canine hero cost $100. He is a bird dog and was purchased from C. A. Lanson, of Tionesta, by George-Watts, of New York city, a cousin of George DawBon, with whom be spends tbe hunt ing season each year. The dog was al ways permitted to sleep at the bead of the stairs. John Shearer of Kinzua was burned to death in bis barn near that place Satur day afternoon, when tbe building was struck by lightning. Four cows and one horse were also cremated, as well as a lot of bay, farm produce and tools being destroyed.

A, Cofluiau, Formerly of West Hickory, Kills His Wife In a Fit of Insanity. A press dispatch under date of May 18. from Fairmont, W. Va., gives the par ticulars of a horrible tragedy which was enacted near that place, the principals being Rev. S. A. Coffman, wbo was lo cated at West Hickory during the year 1007, and his wife, whose throat he cut from ear to ear. Rev. Mr. Coffman preached at West Hickory, East Hickory and Whig Hill, and while be was thought to be somewhat peculiar at times, none of bis friends ever Imagined such a ter rible ending of bis career. Mrs. Coff man, previous to ber marriage, was Miss Lillian Elliott, and ber home was near Fairmont, which was also Mr. Coffman's former home. She was a woman or more than ordinarily brilliant attainments and bad been educated for tbe missionary work. Her friends at West Hickory all Bpesk ol ber in highest termB of praise, and her awful death was a great sbock to the community. She was united In mar riage to Mr. Coffman In July, lOuG, there being something of a romance connected with their marriage. Her age was about 45 years and besides her husband she is survived by several brothers and sisters. Mr. Coffman's mother resided with them while they were at West Hickory, Tbe dispatch follows: Rev. S. A, Coffman, aged 50, one of the best known Methodist Episcopal clergy men in this district, killed bis wife this morning In a fit of insanity. When be cut ber throat be immediately became sane, and is now under arrest. Coffman residos at Rosstown, and bas charge of two or three churches. His wife was a a member of a prominent family. The past week Coffman bas conducted a series of revival services and finished Sunday apparently well pleased with bis work. Early this morning be attacked bis wife with a poker, striking ber over the head. Tbe woman escaped and ran to the rear yard, followed by ber husband, wbo over powered ber and cut ber throat from ear to ear. According to the statement of Coffman when he looked at the lifeless body of his wife reason was Instantly re stored and he realized what be bad done. He told the police it bad been his inten tion to kill his wife, family and himself. Row Between Tramps. Considerable excitement was caused here Friday night about ten o'clock by tbe report that a man bad been stabbed at the Pennsylvania Railroad station. Sheriff Stroup was hastily summoned and found a man who was bloeding pro fusely from a wound in bis neck just un der bis right ear. Tbe man was brought to Dr. J. ('. Dunn's office where tbe doc tor dressed bis wound, which was only a cut through tbe skin. However, the doctor states that bad the cut been a quar ter inch deeper It would bave reached the jugular vein. The man gave his uameas George Gray or Green, his borne as Greenburg, Pa., and raid he had been employed at the Westlnghouse works, near Pittsburg. He said be was walking down the track when two men grabbed him from behind, one of whom drew a knife across bis neck while the other took his pocketbook, which contained $17.00 in money and papers. He broke away from them aud said he bad run into the river to make his escape, as be was wet from head to foot aud had no hat. The man was put in tbe jail oyer night and Satur day afternoon started on foot toward Oil City. Tbe affair was probably nothing more than a row between a few knights of the bumpers, as a resident of Eagle Rock Informed us Monday evening that the man with bis throat cut (?) and flvo other hobos bad been loafing about that place since Saturday. A gang of three or four of these chaps was about the station here all of Friday night. Memorial Day Program. The joint committee of Capt. George Stow Post, No. 274, G . A. R., consisting of S. D.
