A man went into a Pennsylvania court
recently with a suit against a railroad
company for putting him off a train. He
claimed that he took a seat upon the plat-
rorm because he had only a shori distance
to go and it was not worth his w hile to
ride inside. The conductor told him it
was against the rules to ride outside upon
a platform and he must either ride inside
or be put off. Ue refusee and was ejected
from the train. Then he brought suit.
The company contended it was its duty to
prevent accidents, and it was its duty to
forbid passengers from riding on Its plat
forms. The court held the rule to be a
reasonable one and sustained the com
pany. The Carrolltown News says: Ex -Sheriff
Gray, of this place, has turned in
ventor, and his invention undoubtedly
proves a success. The new production is
a door lock. Like all other men, the
sheriff has had a great deal of trouble with
his door locks. The spriug will split or
break, and a new lock is the only remedy
to be had. So the sheriff set to thinking.
Ills ambition was to Invent a lock that
would have no spring to get out of order,
and be simple in structure. This he has
succeeded in doing. The model was show n
to us Monday and it works like a charm.
The lock Is composed of but three pieces
and each piece is strong and will last a life
time. It can never get out of order. It
can be used on the right or left side of the
door, or as a mortice lock. The model
will be sent lo Washington and a patent
applied for right away.

place where Mr. Farrell had kept his
money. On Monday Mr. Kelly, while
making some repairs, thrust his hand in
above the door mentioned and on feeling
around was surprised to pull out a couple
greenhacks and two railroad checks. He

As a reminder of the departed glory of
former days in certain sections of this
country it Is only necessary to say that
not one log will be floated out of Clearfield
creek this spring on its way to the lower
markets. The writer remembers seasons
wheu Nl.UW.lJUl toOO.HJ,uiO feet was con
sidered a not unusual amount, but where
formerly vast tracts of virgin timber noth
ing temains but stumps and refuse to maik
its habitat. But a few more seasons with
a constantly diminishing output, and the
reputation of the Susquehanna river and
Its tributaries as one of the greatest lum
ber producing sections in the world will
have departed forever. Clearfield Ilcpult-llctm.

Ebensburg, Pa., March 15, 1307.
Allow me to trespass on your columns
once more. I see iu last week's Moun
taineer that the 'coterie to suppress facts,
figures and news" do not take kindly to
my insisting that the Ebensburg school
building "is not what it should be" al
though the fact is knovu to everyone, from
G. Huntley, late school directot, down to
every man, woman and child in Ebens
burg. It cites the Cambria county courthouse
and the Ebensburg opera house as ex
amples of buildings settling. A visit to
either of these buildings will disclose the
fact that they were both built with care,
with good material aud sood workman
ship, aud if there are any defects they are
but slight. A visit to the Ebensburg
school building w ill disclose the reverse.
Bad foundations, bad plastering, bad paint
ing and cheap glass; everything In sight is.
shoddy; what is covered up nothing but
the X rays will disclose. The difference in
putting up the school building as it Is aud
the cost of putting it up as it should be, I
imagine would be sufficient to build a neat
little cottage, perhaps two.
The statement by the Mountaineer that
the building has been inspected by a man
who has "a little grandson attending the
school" is regarded by the Mountaineer as
a clincher. The man, however, may be like
the man we heard of duriug the late war
who was willing that all his wife's rela
tions should go lo the front or it may be
that extensive repairs gives promise of a
good job.
The Mountaineer says if 1 give my name,
etc., it will substantiate its statement, as
to the examination of the school building.
1 may as well state to the Mountaineer
right here that an examination and a
statement by "a little coterie for the sup
pression of facts, figures and news," or by a ,
gentleman with a "grandson," will not be
worth publishing. The people of Ebens
burg would lie gratified with a statement
of the condition of the school building by
competent mechanics, but to make it
worth publishing it must come from a
source that can be traced clean lo the
spring. Citizen.

The writer of this communication feels
it her duty to pay this, a small tribute to
the memory of one w ho ever adorned the
family circle. One, w ho by her suavity of
manner in hei intercourse with others,
gained for herself, the esteem and respect
of all wi'.h whom she came in contact.
The record of Mrs. Denny shows a con
tinuous career is child, sister, teacher,
mother and friend, such as as any chris
tian lady might be proud to claim. The
eldest of a large family deprived by death
of the protection of a father, she while yet
quite young, took it upon herself to assist
her good mother, in the care and educatiou
of the other members of the family. Aud
who that knew her will forget her tender
care and solicitude for each anud all ? She
was our true counselor and constant com
panion, in our young lite, and the faithful,
trusted friend of our more mature years.
"Av, turn and weep. 'tis manliness
To be heart-broken here
For the grave of Earth's liest nobleness
Is watered by the tear."
As a teacker she will be remembered by
many w hose lives we sknow are better for
her instruction and example. And lo
those who came under her influence, now
men and women, the name of Sarah Jane
Kennedy, is synomymous with all lhat is
pure, refined ami elevating iu the charac
ter bf woman. She was a faithful and de
voted wife, a fond and indulgent mother.
What will not the sacred name of mother
recall as her children go through the lab
yrinth of years! To those grief-stricken
ones, to her desolate sisters and brothers,
and many mourning friends, may this be
the consoling reflccliou, Thit their loss,
however irreparable iu this world, is her
eternal gain. l..
