It is estimated that about lO.ooO horse-
ears formerly in use on the street passun-
ger railways of this country have been
tin r.erc wie-1 bv tho trolley. Each of these
cars supplants eight horses, w hich would
eat half a bushel of oats per day. That
makes a difference of 4,ux bushels of oats
nerdav. or nearly 13.(X)0,fX)0 bushels per
annum. Horses are so numerous in Michi
can and feed so scarce that the owner are
turning them into the highways w ith tags
attached to their necks, which reau.

Work on the western end of the pro
jected straight line from below Portage to
Lilly has been temporarily susp tided
pending the action of the Pennsylvania
railroad officials on the suggested exten
sion of this Improvement to the western
eiftl of Flynn's curve, with but a slight
curve below Portage. This will necessitate
a very heavy fill and the changing of the
course of th Conemaugh for half a mile,
or two stone bridges over that stream; but
as Flynn's curve Is oue of worst on the
road, the advantages to be derived would
be immeuse, and it is probab'e that tho
Improvements may be made at this time.
Dr. J. L. G. Myers, of Osceola Mills,
up In Clearfield county, Is the promulgator
of a scheme by which he proposes to erect
in his town a grand church, to be known
as the ISaptist National Monumental
Church. His plan is to build a church of
brown stone, every national, state and
county officer to contribute a stone with
their name engraved on it. He has begun
with congress and says that many senators
and members are so taken with the idea
that they have taken two or more blocks
of stone with their names nicely cut on
the face. It is barely possible that Dr.
Myers' church will be built by congress
men aior.e unless the plan is enlarged.

In order to give the public an opportuni

cost, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has arranged for a series of tours to Jack

pany has been in effect, none but words of
commendation have been received. It
unexcelled train service, experienced tour
st agents and chaperons, and above all
its moderate charges, leave nothing to be

Undoubtedly California offers more gen
uine attractions to the pleasura-traveiiug
public than anv other part of the Ameri
can continent. The fame of its climate is
world-wide, and it is sought even by Euro
peans, who find it more charming thac
their own southert. slopes. To Americans
its worth is too well known to necessitate
a description oi the many advantages to be
enjoyed.
Personally-conducted tours via Pennsyl
vania railroad will leave New York and
Philadelphia on February 12and March 11,
'.". In additilion to the many other
points of interest visited on the first tour
a stop will be made at New Orleans for the
Mardi (iras festivities, and four weeks will
be allowed in California. On the second
tour four and one-half weeks will be al
lowed In California.
An addition to the magnificent train
heretofore used for these tours is a through
Pullman compartment, car. The car,
which w ill be the very best that the Pull
man Company can supply, will contain
nine inclostd compartments two drawing
rooms and seven stale rooms and will be
attached to the special train at Jersey City
and run through to San Diego, Cal., on the
tirst tour, and San Francisco on the second.
This will be the lirst car of its kind to be
run on a trans-continental train, and that
it will lie thoroughly appreciated by par
ticipants in the tours is evidenced by the
fact that that already several of the com
partments have liecn reserved.

A Walter of Opinion
A gentleman was greatly surprised and
pleased the other day at tbe reply a lady
gave to he question: "Do you plant
Vick's seeds? Her answer was: "I
always plant Vick's seeds in the front
yard," but we get cheap seeds in the back
yard, which 1 know is a mistake."
It pays to plant good seeds, and we ad
vise our friends who are thinking of doing
anything in this line to send lo cents for
Vick's Floral Guide for 1.. This amount
may be deducted from the lirst order.
James Vick's Sons, Rochester, N. Y., are
the pioneers in this lice.

Wm. 15. Stewart, a leading shoe merchant
of Tyrone, and one of the wealthiest men
in the place, committed suicide on Tuesday
afternoon by shooting; himself in the head.
A little after one o'clock he was seen to
enter the Elks' Hall there, and it was
twenty minutes after three o'clock when
he was discovered sitting on a chair in one
of the rooms. The room in which he was
found is the purlor. He was slightly re
clining in a chair, with a revolver in his
right hand and a bullet hole In the middle
of his forehead.
Mr. Stewait was a widower, his wife
having died several years ago. He leaves
three children to mourn his death one
girl and two boys. He was a brother-in-law
of W. Fisk Conrad, the present post
master of Tyrone. For several years he
had been in bad health, and there is little
doubt that this preyed on his mind to that
extent that at the time he committed the
deed his mind was unbalanced.

note that the old residence ol oenerai

great patriot, warrior aDd statesman.
which stands on the Johnstown pike, one
mile east of Ligonier, has been restored to
its original appearance. The house is now
on the Denny Morniugside farm, and the
work was done by the Denny s. This old
house is a most valuable relic, and was
built two decades before the opening of the
present century. In it were entertained
Washington. Jefferson. Jackson, Albeit
Gallatin and others proniinently identified
with the formation of our republic, in

and their wives escaped, but Ilaker went
back for his two boys and iu their rescue
both he and the children were horribly
burned. Keachnack returned to the house
