Notes and News.
Several weddings are on the wing
in Emporium and some of our young
j people will spon bo soaring high in
matrimonial bliss. Cupid keeps his
eye on Emporium and is making every
arrow count.
A school teacher in a nearby town,
: says an exchange, recently asked his
! pupils the definition of the word dry
j dock. Imagine his surprise when one
■of the youngesters answered: "It is a
! doctor going after a drink."
Rhoda Royal, who has won the repu
' tation the world over as the most per
fect horse trainer and educator of horses,
; is with The Great Rhoda Royal Shows,
i and with him his famous school of edu
cated equines. Mr. Royal does not
believe so much in training horses as in
educating them. That his methods are
! far superior to those adopted by others i
is made evident by the degree of per
fection his horses have obtained. As a !
gentleman who recently witnessed this
school said: "They can do everything j
but talk." Emporium, June 22.
The last Sunday's Inquirer gave a !
historic account of the lives and murder !
of Mrs. Goodwin, in Tioga county, and I
Mrs. Guy T. Hale, in the State of |
Washington. The Inquirer states that i
the past four years of the lives of these |
two ladies, who were cousins, and the
terrible death they met, was in fulflill- I
ment of the predictions of a Gypsy for- j
tune teller who revealed the future of
these young ladies under protest, but
whether or not there is anything in the
lines of the hands describing one's fu
ture that forseeing came true in detail.
County Commissioners who hereafter
refuse to appoint detectives to ferret
out men who set fire to timber lands,
will be proceeded against by Forestry j
Commissioner Rothrock, the Attorney-
General having decided that he shall
secure evidence of such refusal and
through the District Attorney present
it to the grand jury. After that it will
be a very easy matter to inflict the stiff
fine provided by the forestry law. Mr.
Rothrock is going about this matter in
the right way. If the County Commis
sioners refuse to do their share, they
should be hauled before the Court.—

A subscriber, who probably attained
his education "in a log school house"
and whose intellect has suddenly be
come broadened and whose heart is set
on the welfare of his boys, writes:

Prof. Stauffer's Promotion.
Prof. H. F. Stauffer, who lias accept
ably filled the office of supervisory
principal of the Emporium schools for
the past ten years and who has built
them up to the rank of the best in the
state, has resigned his position to ac
cept the city superintendency of the
schools of Millville, New Jersey.
Mr. Stauffer secured the position on
true merit as the school controllers
examined into the fitness of over forty
candidates before making the choice.
We feel sorry that such a strong man
should leave this section and we con
dole with the people of Emporium on
their loss.
Prof. Stauffer will have 50 teachers
under his charge and will enjoy a good
salary, of which he is entirely worthy.
We expect to hear of his promotion to
still higher positions in years to come,
as he is not only a fine scholar and a
great school man, but better yet, a great
student.—Elk Gazette.

ed through continents with Strauss

oreliestra, and Mr. John Lund's Sara- I
toga orchestra. Has played under !

mann Scliultz, Dresden, will appear at j
the musical next Tuesday afternoon
and evening at the studio of Miss May ;

Great Races at St. Marys.
Attention is directed to the broad
gauge advertisement in this issue of
the coming horse races at St. Marys on
July 3to (> inclusive. The purses offer- I
ed the winners aggregate the handsome j
sum of $4,800, and will certainly bring j
