WASHINGTON LETTER.
I From our Regular Correspondent.]
Washington, July Gth. 11)07.
After official denials all round
that there were going to beany ad
ditional warships sent to the
Pacific Coast, the Navy Depart
ment has now made the official an
nouncement that practically the
whole of the battleship squadron is
going and that just as soon as they
can get off.
There will be sixteen battleships
•it the squadron, and they will
take about two months togo
around by the Magellan or Cape
Horn route. They will be accom- j
primed by a number of gunboats as
tli spatcli boats and tenders, and
Ibere will lie at least three armored
cruisers beside colliers and possibly
;t repair ship. On the Pacific Coast
fchey will be met by the Oregon
and the"Washington now under
going repairs at Portland.
This will make the greatest fight
ing fleet that has ever been assem
bled under the America n ilag, and
n lighting ability as numbers, it
will be one of the greatest fleets
fver collected by any power. The
whole will be under the command
of Admiral liobley I>. Evans, who
.lias seen more sea service than any
other man on the active list of the
wavy. It probably will be his last
sea command, and the handling of
ihis great fleet will be a fitting
close for a long and very active and
effective career.
The exact route and stopping
places of the fleet are not yet fully
determined. They will go direct
So South America and probably
will make only one stop for coal
on the east coast of the continent.
Then they will pass through the
Straits of Magellan and around to
Valparaiso. They will make a
very brief stop there and will pro
ceed north to Peru. This will
bring them to the last leg, as it
were, of their course toward San
Francisco. They will make a
tittie longer stop in Peruvian
watersand will then loaf up the
coast, comparatively speaking, tak
ing in San Diego and Monterey on
the way to San Francisco. Their
cruising speed probably will aver
age about 12 knots, and this in
cluding the stops now contemplat
ed. will make their voyage last
aboat (><) days. This will beat the
record of the Oregon, which took
■V days to come from San Fran
cisco to Key West during the
Spanish War. But she was ac
companied by the little gunboat
Marietta, which retarded her speed
and she was very cautious about
keeping well off all ports and skirt
*ng the outside of the West Indies
;»s the Spanish fleet was then sup
j»c sed to be in the neighborhood of
South America.

I'SOMINBNT IN AFFAIRS.
Bradford Era, July 3, 1907.
A. D. Gould died suddenly at his
j home in Eldred on Tuesday night, a
' victim of heart disease. His death
| was entirely unexpected. Mr. Gould
: wan editor of the Eldred Eagle. He
founded the paper during the early oil
development of the Northern field and
j continued to own and conduct it up
'to the time of his death. Prior to lo
: eating in Eldred he had a job printing
oilice in Tarport, now East Bradford.
Ho was prominent in the affairs of
the Republican party, having been
secretary of the county committee,
delegate to the state convention, etc.
For several years he had been con
nected with the State Pure Food de
partment. In Eldred he was a lead
ing figure in local affairs, a director
of the Eldred Bank, president of the
Home Gas Co., of Eldred and was al
ways identified with movements which
had for their object the improvement
of his home town. He was prominent
in Masonic circles and was a member
of the Knights of Pythias. The de
ceased is survived by his wife and
three sisters, Misses Jennie and May
Gould of Emporium, and Mrs. Harry
Mullin, of Emporium. He was born in
Utica, N. Y., in 1856. His early life
was passed there and in Binghamton,
N. Y., where his father, the late C. B.
Gould, established the first daily news
paper published in that city. Later
the family lived at Emporium, Pa.,
where the remains will be laid to
rest in the family burial lot this after
noon.
Mr. Gould's death will be pincerely
mourned by many friends. He was a
man of most excellent traits of char
acter.
LHAVES A VACANCY IN ELDRED.
Port Alleyaiig Reporter, July sth.
Editor A. D. Gould of Eldred, died
suddenly at his home on Tuesday even
ing at half past eleven o'clock The
news of his demise was a shock to his
hosts of friends throughout the
county. It seems that he retired in
his usual health Tuesduy evening, and
shortly after complained to his wife of
not feeling well. Though a physician
was promptly summoned Mr. Gould
had died before his arrival. The cause
ofdeath was heart failure. The fun
eral was held from the family home in
Eldred Thursday afternoon at four
o'clock and the remains were taken to
Emporium 011 the evening express and
on Friday (this afternoon) were inter
red in the Gould family lot. Mr.
Gould was an excellent citizen and a
splendid man. He was largely identi
fied with all the successes of the town
and had become to be looked upon as
a leader in everything of benefit there.
He was a Republican in politics and
principle and was a councillor in the
business of his party. His death leaves
a vacancy in Eldred that will not soon
be filled. He was nearly fifty-one
years of age, and was born in Utica, N.
Y., in 1808. He established the Eagle
in Eldred in 1878, after first learning
the printer's trade with his father, the
late C. B. Gould of Emporium, and
owned and operated it successfully up
to the time of his demise.
iiIOHLY ESTEEMED.
Driftwood Gazette.
A. D. Gould, the well known and
highly esteemed editor of the Eldred
Eagle, died suddenly at his home in
Eldred on Tuesday night of last week,
of heart failure, aged 51 years. He is
survived by fiis wife and three sisters.
The latter are Mrs. H. H. Mullin and
Misses Jennie and May Gould, all of
Rlmporium. * * * It is hard for us
to realize that our good and kind friend
is no more. Only last month we en
joyed a day together in Harrisburg,
and he was the same jolly,
ed "Gus" as of old, and was apparent
ly in the best of health.
Peace to his soul.
EAST SAD RITES.
The remains were brought to his old
home at Emporium on Thursday even
ing July 4th, after short religious ser
vices at his Eldred residence by Rev.
Webster, Rector of Eldred Episcopal
Church, of which the deceased and his
wife had long labored to maintain.
The Eldred Lodge, A. Y. M., of which
the deceased had served as Master
took charge of the funeral arrange- I
rnents. Upon the arrival of the re
mains at Emporium, a delegation of j
Emporium Masons met the funeral
party at Broad street station and ac
comjjanied them to the residence of his
sisters on Sixth street.
At 2:30 Friday afternoon, funeral j
services were conducted at the old i
homestead, on Sixth street, by Rev. j
J. H. McCandless, of Smethport, and i
Rev. Webster, of Port Allegany, (our |
Rector being absent on his vacation)
■trictly confining the services to the
ritual, at the request of the family. A
choir, composed of Mrs. W. H. Howard.
Miss Grace Walker, Mrs. T. F. Moore,
Miss Lizzie Ludlam, Miss Alice Mont
gomery, Frank Felt, Chas. T. Logan
and W. H. Howard sweetly rendered
the service.
The funeral cortege silently wended
its way to the "silent city," being pre
ceeded by the Masonic bodies of Eldred
and Emporium, and also the Knights
of Pythias of Eldred—about sixty in
number. After the usual church ser
vice at the grave the burial service of
Masonry was observed, when all that
was mortal of Augustus Dixon Gould,
and upright husband, brother and citi
zen was lowered to his last resting
place, beside his father, mother and
son, to await the resurrection morn.
"Farewell, brother."
The relatives and friends from a dis
tance in attendance were: John B.
Schwab (father-in-law,) Mrs. Jacob
Schee h (aunt,Utica, N. Y.; Mr. and
Mrs. sister Geo. Gridley, and Miss

- readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and inucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative pow
ers that they offer One Hundred Dol
