John Casserly has the contract for
building tho wall under Molester's
new store. He commenced laying

An excursion was planned for last
Sunday from Ridgway to the Kinzua
bridge. The matter fell through from
some causo or other.
The old Alvocate Is $1.60 a year.
About 15 new subscribers nave enlisted
since the fire. We have room on ou r
books at No. C shanty row for a few
more.
The weather Is delightful, and the
beautiful colors of the trees, arrayed in
their many varied costumey, make
the aspect of nature & pleasaut pano
rania.
The Bi-Ccntennlal celebration at
Philadelphia next week will be one of
the greatest shows ever witnessed by
the citv of brotherly love. It will al
most eclipse the centennial.
Election day will be warm in
Jones township we rather mistrust, as
Messrs. Brown and Montgomery, the
Demopratic and Republican candi
dates for Assembly both livo there
The great fire in Ridgwny on the
morning of Sept. 20 will mark tho
beginning of u hew epoch in tho his
tory of Ridgway. May futuro sue
cesses compensate us for tho lows of
that eventful morning.
J. 8. Magmuis has rented hi
saloon to Kuliues and Flits. Mr.
Maginnis has long had the reputation
of keeping a quiet, orderly place,
which reputation wo have no doubt
bis successors will sustain.
Vote for O. t. Montgomery, the
Republican candidate for Assembly.
He will make a creditable repmsouta
tlve. Ho has made his way up from
the ranks. The boys should stand by
him. Vote for Montgomery.
A special term of court was held
here on Saturday by Judge Brown and
associates Weis, and Messenger. Tho
licenses of Rhinos Bros. John Mc
Qrady, and Jas. Maginnis, were made
good in their forced removal to the
opposite side of tho street.
Bennett, the painter has lettered
Powell & Kime'e store on the north
and south sides, Chas. Olnistead has
made a fine largo sign for Morgestcr,
Cuthy has painted a saloon elgn for
tho Rhincs boys. Holes and the Ad
vocate office also sport large signs
lettered by Bennett.
The very prompt and generally
satisfactory adjus tment of the losses
by Rldgway's recent fire inspired our
citizens with renewed confidence in the
several companies. Our local agents
H. M. Powers, and M. S. Kline did
effective work iu having tho losses
promptly paid.
By an agreement among the
owners of property from Broad to
Mill street, the burned district, the
buildings will he placed on a line with
Messenger's drug store and the Hyde
Houso. Tho line of the street is out
six feet further, but as the buildings
were forniely built ou the old line it
waa thought best to build tho new
ones on tho same line. This will
give the merchants a good chance to
display goods in front of lieir stores
without intruding on the street.
NOTICE.
To Those Interested : My attention
lias been called to the fact that numer
ous places of business within the lim
its of our borough are habitually kept
open for trade on Sunday. This is not
only contrary to law, but demoralizing
iu its effect upon the community, a
elur upon Christianity, and repugnant
to the feelings of a large proportion of
our population. Gentlemen, if you
have no regard for religion, morality,
or the feelings fit your neighbors, I
submit the question to you: I it any
jiecuniary advantage to you? Do you
sell phy more goods in the seven clays
th&u you would in six? In either
June the consumption is the same.
Tho , deluge of drunkenness seen
dully and nightly upon our streets
utlest the fact that our 6aloon and
hotel keepers uro constantly guilty
of flagrant violations of law. This
must be stopped. Laws are for the
benefit of the community at large,
aud must be enforced.
The borough constables will tee that
the Sunday and the license laws are
strictly enforced from this time forth.

The effect of the laic Hurry in oil Is
beginning to to be apparent. Tho ad
vancu was so rapid, unprecedented and
unexpected that the losses sustained
were enormous. William D. Arch
bold, one of tho most respected and
most solid financial men in the ex
change, Oil City, has been deprived of
his reason, temporarily at least, bv Lis
great losoca aud l!o excitement ami
worry incident thereto. Per the past
mouth his business has av eraged nearly
a million barrels daily and during the
past live years ho has not been absent
from the exchange on a Lu.ilaess day.
Tho strain was so groat on his mental
faculties that they gave way. About
noon Tuesday he left the exchange,
went to one of the hotels and procuned
a basket of lunch and strolled out into
the woods, telling the party of whom
ho procured it to say nothing about
his getting it. During tho afternoon
his bookkeeper became alarmed and
telegraphed to his homo in Titusviile
to know if ho had been there. The
reply was in the uegi.tive, but stated
that ho had written his wife biddimr
icr good bye. Tho belief then became
prevalent that lie luul committed sui
cide. A seru'ehinir parly was oruraui-
od and during lac evening ho was
found in a small Isolated eottafo a

barrels of oil under tho rule for his ac

ing In tho death ef Jessie Eldridge, a
lil-tle child apparently three years old.
Passenger train 4, conductor Cass and
engineer Phillips, coming noith di.3
covered the child lying on tho track,
but too late to stop (he train, and the
cruel wheel.? entirely severed the
child's head from the body. Inquiry
at tho nearest house failed to identify
the child and tho body was brought to
Sfncharville and tho meu sent back in
the neighborhood of the accident to
Inquire whose child was intasiiig.
The parents were found living a mile
away from the place, and tho littleou
had evidently strayed away, following
her pet kitten, which was clasped In
her arms as she lay asleep on the track
with her curly head over the fatal Iron
rail. Thu engineer did all that mortal
could do to avert the accident, but that
little mangled body will always be a
terrible remembrance to him. War
