4'THEM 'LECTIONS."
The township and borough elections
came off yesterday, and were tho
quietest and most earnestly contested
of any held in this place for several
years. ' On Saturday night last the
greeubackers met in secret in regular
old No-Nothing style and nominated
a straight-out greenback ticket. They
must have sworn every man to secrecy,
as it was an utter impossibility to get
them to tell who had been nominated
or whether a nomination had been
made at all or not. They were simply
the dumbest set we ever saw. They
had their instructions from tho ring
leaders, and had to act accordingly.
Well, this action on the part f the
grcenbackers looked, to tho casual ob
server, just a little bit hoggish, and
bad the eftct to arouse the ire of the
citizens somewhat, and they, therefore,
concluded to meet nt the Court House
on Monday evening and place in nom
ination a ticket which they need not
be ashamed of, and they did. Tuesday
morning came and, having "marshaled
their forces," the grcenbackers marched
upon the enemy 39 votes strong,
and were going to take the fort by
storm. They fought bravely all day,
but were obliged to retire from the
field a badly whipped set, electing but
ono of their candidates that of in
spector of election which was on
account of a mistake on the part of
the citizens in voting for two, all those
tickets being thrown out.
Lack of time and space prevent
further comments on the result;
suffice it to say, the greenbackers were
laid out, not because they didn't have
good men on their ticket, but because
of their greedy actions, and a lamenta
ble scarcity of votes. It might be
well enough to state also that the little
game of ono or two democrats int
putting a straight democratic ticket in
tbe field in order to help along tho
greenbackers, didn't work worth a
cent either.
The ticket as elected is as follows.
It is the ticket nominated by the citi
zens, with the exception of Samuel
Campbell inspector of election :
Burgess, N. 8. Foreman ; Council
men, Justis Shawkey, Patrick Joyce,
D. W. Clark, Chas. Bouuer, J. E.
Weuk, M. Einstein ; School Directors,
J. E. Blaine, S. J. Wolcott ; High
Coustable, Jas. Swaverly , Constable,
Chas. Hniton ; Judge of Election, II.
O. Davis; Inspectors of Election
Chas. Ilaisig, Samuel Campbell; Aud
itors, It. L. Haslet, T. J. Van Giesen ;
Overseers of the Poor, G. W. Robin
son, Wm. Richards.
Iu the Township tbe officers were
distributed about equally between the
citizens and greenbackers.
A sleigh-load of church people
from East Hickory, met with quite a
mishap whilo returning home from
this place one night last week. Their
team got over the bank about a mile
above Tubbs Run, and it was impos
sible for them to extricate one of the
horses. They were obliged, after re
peated and unsuccessful efforts to get
their rig in shape, to call on
Mr. George Sibbald, three miles above
this place, and get him to haul them
home. The next day one, of the
horses being still over the bank they
hitched to him with block und-tackle,
but before they succeeded in getting
him into the road he gave up the
ghost. We understand the owner of
the animal has brought na action
for damages against the road com
missioness of Tionesta township for
the death of his steed.
Harry Iugalls, a :resii'ent of
Franklin, recovered $738 damages
against that city before the court last
week, on account of personal injuries
caused by defective sidewalks. We
thought that Franklin with its mag
nificent walks would be the last place"
iu this State in which a case of this
kind would occur. Let it be a warn
ing to other places, especially our own
town, iu which there are some bad
walks, aud should any one get hurt
tbe borough wtbld no doubt be
obliged to pay damages. If we have
good walks no one can go back on us
for injuries received. Let tho matter
receive careful attention.
Jake Guiton brought in 19 dozen
pigeons lact Thursday, having shot
them near Little Coon creek. He
say quite a body of the birds "stood
the stoi m," aud aie still iu that neigh
borhood. If the weather bhould remaiu
warm, as at present, they'll all be
back again, and n good many more.

The present term of Trof. reek's
singing school will close on Friday
evening next, and another class will
bo organized on Monday evening fol
lowing, to which all are invited. Under
Prof. Peck's management the school
has made excellent progress, and the
scholars unanimously voted for another
term Any new scholars who may
wish to attend can do so, as an hour
or so will be devoted to the rudiments
each evening before commencing the
regular exercises. Although the Pro
fessor is a most excellent singer, his
greatest forte is in teaching.
Mr. Dunn, of the Crookston
(Minn.) Chronicle has our thanks for
a pamphlet giving some very interest
ing facts concerning that State. By a
map contained in the book, we see
that Crookston is crowded away up in
the north-east corner of the State,
almost into the British Possessions,
and we don't wonder at tbe thermom
eter getting down 40 and 50 degrees
below zero. But it's an immense
country for wheat growing, and is
rapidly filling with good industrious
citizens.
Steve Bush was arrested last
week, at the instance ofSclden Whit
man, on a charge of killing one of
Sel's porkers, some time last fall. Tbe
heariug was had before 'Squire
Brennan, and the evidence seems to
have betn strong enough to bind Steve
over to court, which was done, and in
default of sufficient bail he was obliged
to go to jail. His trial will come off
next week before theconrts.
By an Erie paper we notice that
Frank Mabie bas disposed of bis
interest in the Commercial House, and
is fitting up a hotel iu a different por
tion of the city, it being a much pleas
anter location than the former.
Frank's many warm friends here will
wish him success in whatever step he
may take, and being an active ener
getic young business man he will
doubtless achieve it.

If any of our citizeus have a
picture of tbe late Warren Beemen,

There is a tintype of the young man

about three years ago, and the only
picture taken since he was a child
asd the parents would be very thank
ful to receive it.
The Free Methodist revival closed
on Monday evening, after a very suc

50 haviug been forward. The M. E.
meetiogs will close this evening,
having also been very successful. We

verts, but may be able to give the
number next week.
Scandal of the nastiest degree ha?
been rife in Clarion during the past

DIED.
1IILLARD. At Nciltown, Pa., Fob. 8, nt
11:45 p. m., of ccrebro spinal meningitis,
Colista Hortense H illard, aged 23 years,
S months, and 80 clnys.
It is terrible to realize that the
above is true. Taken so suddenly her
death seems more like some horrible
dream than the sorrowful reality the
awful certainty it is. Colista was
tsken sick Wednesday, Jan. 27; med
ical aid was called immediately but
without avail ; she grew worse and
died Sunday evening, Feb. 8. She
was a devoted and affectionate
daughter and sister, and a faithful
friend. By her death our schools lose
one of its most consciencious and
faithful teachers. Quiet and unassum
ing, a bard student.aud a deep thinker,
she lived and labored quietly and
steadily winning and retaining the
honor, respect, esteem aud friendship
of all who knew her. She began
teaching in November, 1874, teaching
her first term at Marienville, siuce
when she has been teaching almost
uninterruptedly up to the time of her
death ; with the exception of a single
term all her teaching has been done iu
Forest Co. She began her last terra,
teaching at Neilllown on Dec. 15;
after teaching a week she took a vaca
tion ot two weeks, spending the time
at home ; not feeling well she was
urged to give up teaching for awhile,
but thinking her strength greater than
it was she returned to school, she had
taught only a rhort time after recom
mencing whe-i she was obliged to close
school and call medical assistance ;
gelling better she began again and
taught until Wednesday evening, Jan.
27, when she again closed school for
the last time forever. Her father,
mother and brother were with her at
the time of her death. Her remains
were taken to her home in Clarington
where her funeral took place Tuesday,
Feb. 10, at 2 p. m. Those who knew
her best loved her most. "Aud I heard
a voice write blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord from
henceforth ; that they may rest
from their labors; and their workB do
follow them.
BEEMAN. In Tionesta, Pa., on Satur
day, Fob. 14, 1830, Warren Boo man,
aged 17 years, lackitig one day.
In our last issue we mentioned the
serious illness of this young man, and
said there was little hope of his recov
ery. He passed away very peacefully
between one and two o'clock in the
afternoon, having been sick but a
little over two weeks. And thus it 13
that Death has taken off another of
our young men in the bloom of health
and happiness. Warren bore the
respect of all his acquaintances, es
pecially his every day companions,
who knew him best. He was always
quiet, unassuming, and never bois-
trous, and for these excellent traits of
character bo won the high esteem of
all into whose society he was thrown.
He had no bad habits whatever, and
bid fair to become a model and useful
man. He loved his parents, aud
showed that love by a disposition to
obey and never incur their displeasure.
Although too weak and exhausted to
speak before his death he stretched
forth his hand and bid nil around
farewell. Warren was tbe son of Mrs.
J, It. Chadwick by her former hus
band, who died in the army. The
funeral services, which took placo on
Monday afternoon, were conducted by
Rev. A. O. Stone, and the remains
were laid to rest in tho M. E. Ceme
tery, by the side of threo other smaller
children of tbe parents. The remains
were followed to the grave by an ira
raenss concourse of sympathizing
friends. And thus were the last 6ad rites
performed over the remains of one who
was loved and esteemed by all who
know him. The sorrowing and be
reaved parents should in a measure
console themselves with the assurance
that they have the deep sympathy of
tho entire neighborhood.
