will doubtless reach this week. The

about 60 rods from the Caroahan well

Hon. Henry Brace of Warren,
one of the leaders of the House of
Representatives, waa in Harrisburg
to-day. He says the rumors of lie
publican dissension in the oil regions
are entirely groundless, and that in
that section the Republican State tick
et will poll more than the Republican
vote. Mr. Brace was a candidate for
nomination for State Treasurer, and
knows the people of the oil regions
thoroughly. Ilarruburg Telegraph.
And Mr. Brace is correct. The

can majority on the State ticket, just

Accompanying the notice of the
death of Willie Hays, which will be
found in its proper place to day, came
the following touching lines from bis
father, Mr. David Hays, whose many
old friends still living here will sym
pathize deeply with him and his esti
mable wife: "I would like to write all
the dear ones in our old home, but
my heart is too heavy, and my eyes
too blinded by tears. There is an
other new made grave on a lonely
Southern bill. There are breaking
hearts looking for sympathy from
friends, oh, so far away. Wben Willie
died there ceased to beat one of tbe
truest hearts on earth. We had hoped
when Ellen and I came to die he
would close our eyes and fold our idle
hands, but Gnd bad other thoughts
and called him home while his long
shadow pointed tu the West. We
fondly hoped our children would carry
on our work when our life was over.
God knows best."

Last week S. R. Brooks, of Irwin,
Westmoreland couoty, Pa., the
"World's Famous Lock-Picker, "struck
the town. After showing the citizens,
all who wsnted to see, how easily the
finest and most expensive locks could
be opened without the aid of a key, he
exhibited a new combination lock of
his own design, which seems like a
very clever article. It was to intro
duce his lock that Mr. Brooks was
traveling, and when he learned of the
proposition that our people bad made
to a Boston shoe manufacturer who
talked of locating here, he said if they
would extend the same proposition to
his firm they would locate their works
hers, aad wben once nnder full head
way they would employ two hundred
hands and upward. His proposition
was at once accepted, and he was in
vited to meet a number of the citizens
at tbe Gas Company's office on the
following evening. At this meeting a
proposition of which the following is
the substance was made to Mr. Brooks'
: That the citizens of this bor
ough will furnish a suitable site and
building for a lock factory and foun
dry, and a twenty horse power boiler
and engine free for as long a time as
the same is used for the purpose indi
cated; providing the firm agrees to
occupy the same for a term of not less
than five years, and to employ not
less than fifty men. In addition to
this the Gas Company will provide
and furnish free gas for fuel and lights
for a term of five years from date of
occupancy.
This proposition seemed to strike
Mr. Brooks favorably, as well it ought
any one who means business, and he
agreed to submit it to his firm and
have the principals here in the course
of a week or ten days to look tbe
grouud over and complete arrange
ments.
As to the reliability of Mr. Brooks
and bis firm we are as much in the
dark as any who met him, but he left
a good impression, and gave every
outward appearance of an honest and
shrewd business man, who meant ex
actly what he said. And if they do
mean business there should be no
doubt about Tionesta getting tbe lock
factory, for its proposition is several
times more than fair and liberal
Nothing could be more so. , The firm
has viitually nothing to do but come
on and go to work, without one dollar
of outlay, other than tbeir machinery,
which Mr. Brooks says they own.

Ex-Congressman James Sheakley, who
