A sketch in the Philadelphia Times, of the late William Gocbel, of Ken tucky, who was born in Sullivan county, this state, says: "Goebel never smiled; he never listened to a funny story; he never smoked; he never drank intoxicants; he never married. He was an athiest; he was born of humble parents, he was a newsboy, a jeweler, a lawyer, a State Senator, a murderer and a Governor. He was the victim of his own supremely selfish, unbridled ambition. As he killed John Sanford, the Covington banker, in a political feud, so was he killed by one who followed in his steps. Ho had one redeeming trait in his cold, unfeeling, audacious and un scrupulous nature. He loved his mother devotedly. The stepping stones on which he sought to obtain power were men's passions and pre judices. They were fatal to him. The Election. The elections in this county passed off quiet V and a very small vote waa polled. In Emporium and Shippen township there was little excitement, the Republicans electing their entire Borough and ward tickets, with the exception of poor master, Jos.Lechner, Dera , having seven majority over U. A. Palmer, and Judge of Election in the east ward. The nominations were exceptionally strong on both sides and the battle was quietly but closely eon tested. The election of Dr. Bardwell as Chief Burgess is very gratifying to his many friends and his defeat of ex postmaster Hogan, an old-line Demo cratic war horse, is rather more than was expected, yet the defeated Tam many (Jhief takes the verdict in good humor and bows to the will of the people. The Right Stuff. The Warren Mirror, alluding to the candidacy of Hon. O. C. Allen, for Congress, says: "His Republicanism | has never been questioned. He has ! no changes to make, no "coats to turn." He is a 100-cent-on-the-dollar, 24-caret-flne Republican, without alloy, not a whitewashed, silver or gold plated Democrat. "He now stands and always has stood flat-footed and square-toed on the Republican platforms. He has battled and fought for Republican principles and espoused the policies of the Republican party at all times. Never has there been a question, the least doubt as to his attitude towards national or state policies, as formu lated by the Republican party in its conventions. Standing at the head of Warren county Republicans he needs no long newspaper apologies to set him right with the party, for he has nothing to explain, simply to say: "I am a Re publican," and everybody, everywhere knows exactly where he stands. Reared here on stalwart soil, and like most of our statesmen, he has been a Republican from choice and principle through his entire useful and successful life. This is the man who should represent this district in Con gress, and lie is the choice of Warren county." BRIEF HENTION. The Borough election, while quiet, developed many surprises.

The Ithaca Conservatory Concert Company at the Presbyterian church last evening attracted a large and ap preciative audience. It was the finest musical entertainment ever given in Emporium. The chemical works of Quinn & Sherman, at Straights, Elk county, were destroyed by fire Sunday night, involving a loss of §55,000 011 which there was an insurance of §35,000. The works will be rebuilt at once. Srneth port Democrat. Mrs. Dan'l Downey yesterday re ceived a cheek from the New York Life Insurance Company for §I,OOO in payment of the policy on the life of Olivine Downey.

The Postofflce Department at Wash ington will soon issue books of two cent postage stamps. The book will contain 12 stamps enclosed in covers with oiled papers between. The books will bo sold for 25 cents and the gov ernment will net §8 on every thousand sold. An old and true saying avers that a wise man changes his mind on proper occasion, but a fool never does; prob ably because he has no mind to change. Congressman J. C. Sibley, of Pennsyl vania, has demonstrated that he does not belong to the foolish class.—Chicago Inter-Ocean. Beware of women who are going trom house to house selling what they claim to be genuine hand-made Irish lace. An exchange states that the articles are nothing but cheap cotton and machine made. The peddlers tell a smooth story about their goods and have succeeded in disposing of a con siderable quantity in many places. "What is home without a news paper?" asked an exchange, to which another replied: "It is place where old hats are stuffed into broken win dows; where the wife looks like a bag of wool with a string tied around her center; where the husband has a to bacco panorama printed on his shirt front and the neglected children wipe their noses on their jacket sleeves." Did you ever stop to think that an ordinary pack of playing cards is a perfect caiandar? There are 52 cards, representing the number of weeks in the year; 365 spots corresponding to the 365 days in the year; 12 faced cards, representing the 12 months; four suits, club, spade, heart, diamond, represent ing the four seasons; 13 cards in each suit, representing the 13 moons in each year, and the joker makes up for the extra day in the year. The tiger is the most ferocious of all back-biters. He leaps stealthily upon the back of a passing animal and sinks his fangs into the creature's flesh. He holds on with teeth and claws and con tinues the attack until the victim, ex hausted and helpless, falls and horribly dies. The back-biter of the human species never lets go, either, until the character that has been assailed is des troyed. The tiger is treacherous, mer ciless and cowardly in its methods. The human back-biter has similar in stincts.—Bradford Era. A Carlisle, Pa., dispatch says that William Colombo, an Indian graduate of the Carlisle school and a private in the 4tli United States Cavalry, now serving in the Philippines, has written a letter to Maj. Bratt, superintendent of the school in which he says: "Gen. Lawton was killed about twenty yards from where I stood firing at a man who was shooting from a tree, and 110 was the very man who killed the Gen eral I kept firing until ho fell from the tree." Prospecting for gold on the Barlow farm, near Genesee, Pa., has assumed I an important and interesting phase.

A 40-foot shaft has been sunk on the peak of a hill, which rises 500 feet above Ellisburg creek, and is reck oned to be 2,500 feet above sea level.— Belmont Despatch. TERMS: $2.00 —$1.50 IN ADVANCE.

Seger, son of our townsman R. Seger, to Miss Lucy Backus, at Smethport yesterday afternoon was a happy occasion. The wedding took place at the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. Mary A. Backus, the ceremony being performed by Father Donahue. About one hun dred guests were present and the pop ularity of the contracting parties was manifested by the cordial congratula tions of those present. Mr. Fred Seger, of Emporium, and Miss King, of Smethport; acted as best man and bridesmaid. Elegant refreshments were served and all enjoyed the happy hours until six o'clock when Mr. and Mrs. Seger left for Washington and other points to pass their honeymoon. The bride is a daughter of the late Capt. John C. Backus, once a promi nent Smethport attorney, and is a popular young ladv. The groom is engaged in business at Smethport and is a hustling young man. The PRESS regrets the lateness of the hour renders it impossible to give a more extended notice of the pleasant occasion, yet we wish the happy couple great happiness in this world. A number of Emporiumites attended the wedding, including Mrs. R. Seger, Miss Ida Seger, Miss Clara Seger, Mrs. Chas. Seger, and ye editor and wife. A number of former Emporiumites, now residents of Smethport, were also guests. wmmmmana i&vnrux/mMzrH-xsa&Kz. vntar, TiwjuwwHagw MAKSUII). ! ENGLISH—DOUG II!■! It TY. On \V id lie:-(lay.
