h'fltior Press:
I see in the PRESS of the 9th inst.,
some one has made a personal attack
on me, accusing me of writing for the
PRESS and Independent. I wish to in
form the writer that I write for neither
of these papers referred to or any
other paper. I attend strictly to my
own business. To be sure I run a pea
nut roaster and work on the shoo bench
aid strap the razors, all of which be
long to me and I have a right to use
my outfit as I see fit Should I lose
funds in making an honest living, I am
willing to lose them. I own a gum
slot machine which I don't deny, but I
never ask anyone to patronize the ma
chine. Should the writer see it he
probably would drop a cent in the slot,
thinking it was a contribution box,
unless some "kid" would tell him the
difference.
As far as the Gazette is concerned, I
have never written a word for that
paper. Should I over happen to send
a local, I assure the writer, I will not
say anything personal to the injury of
another. I don't know enough.
My name will be signed to all arti
cles that come from me.

SINNAMAHONING.
[ am unable at this writing to state
when the ladies auxilliary of the R. I'.
LI., will give their next fete. It all de
pends on the Committee having charge
of the G. &S. C. C., to whom we are
much indebted for news of what is going
on I am told.
The R. P. U's entertainment was grand
You wouldent think they could command
Good feeling of a community
Not over loaded with'unity
Putting forth good fellowship* hand.
The Ball rolled away fine
And we all danced in line
Amid the bright streams of light
As we did not get tight
We ga»« a hearty goodnight
And were glad that we had a good time.
But it was a great task
For us all to unmask
In colorsmi fashions S3 say
We all made a hit
The R. P. U„ will admit
As the doors closed
Ail togo away;
We reckon ther'll be a shootin' match
here on Mr. Washington's birthday j
which comes on the 22d of February !
every yv ir. Sprue they'll bo a big kick
if they try to run it at the same old place
where they used to viz Ike Barber's
long field which ruusel 'iu up to the
wood-. The B. &S. cut right and lett
3 limes through this patch and moren
likely lhe'll b-j mad as thunder if any of
our Citizens get to shootin' through it.
Wonder how many of our Citizens recol
lect the shootin' match way back in the
80's when they tied a turkey with a I
string by the leg way up at the head of !
the clearin' and Tke Barber flopped its !
wings the first pop also the glancin' shot j
Bill Foultz made when he killed f>. P's j
spotted calf. Ike was in our midst agin j
lately.
It must be mighty nigh onto 10 years !
now since Newt. McCloskey took to driv
iu' the store team, lie's hauled a !
Powerful lot of goods from the Depot '
and back again in these years and done a :
heap ol deliverin' besides includin' hay |
and coal & other Grocs. Did any of
you's ever notice how mighty willin'
Mack is to do anyone a turn without any
grumblin* chucked in. We recollect the j
names of a good many hands that drove i
before Mack, v' /.: —HI lick Metzger, who I
dtovc high onto 2f> years ago, then come i
his Bro. Sam, betwixt that time and the 1
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY,FEBRUARY i 6, 1905.
present the following also have drove:—
Lawrence Smith, John Iless, Ed. Beldin,
Young Squire Shafer and Lon Logue
and then comes Mack and we reckon he's
been the steadiest of them all O. K.
Dad Brobst who everybody don't know
maybe has been seen on our streets hust
lin' lately back and forth gettiu' his
Props all cut and in on his Contract with
Kate Wvkoll which is up soou. Things
looked pretty blue for Dad for awhile
back on aoeouut of him not bein able to
get 'cm off in time but just when it was
look in' the bluest, for Dad who should
step in but Our Enterprising' Citizen (J.
S. Bailey and put his shoulder to the
wheel with his '1 team and now thepilin'
grouud is well nigh takeu' up betwixt
the P. 11. R., and Nathan's store, 0. K.
There's goin' to be right smart doins
here on Washington's birthday in the
evening at the Town Hall when the I'.
O. S. of A., Ladies will give a Colonial
Supper includin' Roast beef, Stewed
Chickin, Baked Potatoes, & etc., also Ice
Cream, Cake and Coffee will be served.
All our Patriotic Citizens ought to turn
out as usual and give the ladies a lift as
there is always a heap of other fun con
nected with these gathering viz, hearin'
the C. Band play, seein' the cake walk
ed off by the Y. M. & Y. L.; and seein'
who gets the Silver Set chanced off this
time.
I was ridin' down the 'Fork one
day last week behind Little Dick' Crum's
team on his bob sleds I couldent help
thinkin' how the stealin' hand ov time
has changed things in cur little village
and joggin' down the long hill by the
Red Bridge my mind coufdent help re
verten back to once before when I rode
down with Wash Bailey behint his yoke
of oxen and we tied up at the blacksmith
shop at the foot of the hill and chatted a
lyng spell with Josiah Fink and as Dick
and I cut the corner I thought Joe >l.
would not be standing ori the porch with
his welcome for every 1 nor (J-. A. at the
store with his cane and his dog with 'em
maybe and as we drove on up I couldn't
help thinkin' how the hand of civilization
had tore Squire's farm assundcr and drove
him like the lone Indian further into the
west. When we reached the bridge
where I met the .-leigh load that night I
left and hobbled home to other re
flections.
We have a powerful lot of brave men
in our midst (>. K, when last week some
of them was workin' lor Arthur Barclay
up Ellicks Run gettiu logs out they treed
an old bear and four cubs in a cave iu
the rocks. While they were shufflin
around to draw cuts to see who would go
in, Newell Bushore crawled right iu and
chased the old one out and got the four
cubs. Then they drawed cuts agin to
see who would fall heir to the cubs.
Tanner Losey got two, Jim Fiskus got
one and Newall got one. Fiskuses froze,
Troner fed hisn .too much beeaused it
whined and it puffed up and died. New
all has his alive yet.
Pap Blodgett who we mentioned in the
columns of these papers once before is 1
of our most respected citizens, he and his
estimable wife arc liked by exery oue.
When we wrote the piece about l'ap we
reckoned he'd crack his sides laughin
over it and understand it the same as we
intended.
The compassionless current which
speeds its message of gladness to some
and its message of sadness to others,
broke its sad one to our community,
Monday afternoon, when it told of the
death in Philadelphia of one of our boy's,
David Fulton. Dave, as we were wout
to call him, grew to manhood in our
midst, and his many warm friends here
cherished the hope that in his long bat
tle with the grim messenger he would
finally win, but it was not to be. Rather
let us believe that he did win even in
death and that his closing eyes caught
visions of sweet fields beyond. He will
be remembered as a man who tried to do
his duty well, one who was held in high
esteem by his employers and known all
along the!'. & E. as one of the best
Passenger Conductors in the service.

Emporium, Pn.
Dear Sir: There.are these five ways
of badness in paint:
(1) stuffed out with chalk, or some
thing like that;
('!) barytes. better that chalk, but no
covering to it; nobody knows it:: there:
(3) benziue in the oil, or water, or
other such stuffing,
(4) too thin—too much liquid, what
ever it is, for the solid:
(5) short measure.
Now will you buy by the price per
''gallon?
We furnish our agents with a state
chemists certificate of analysis that tells
what's in Devoe.
