The little bit of venison which bit
this market last week, bit it mighty
hard, bringing 24 cents a pound. It

amputation, which operation was per
formed by Dr. Siggins.
CoIHds, McCain & Co. have sev
eral coal barges aod flats anchored
here ready to run on the next flood
that happens along. Prophets think
that after this cold spell is over there
will be a good flood in the river. Aod
we hope they are correct.
The first slush ice of the season
was noticeable in the river on Monday
morning of this week, and has since
been running steadily. The creek and
"back chanel" were frnieo yesterday
morning with ice almost heavy enough
to carry an ordinary sized man.
"There's method in that man's
madness" remarked the Superintendent
of au Insane Asylum of one of his pa

Cough Syrop when he has a cold."
"Ah 1 I see."

their minds their poorer neighbors,

bier line has been strutting around
our coop as yet, that we have observed.
Several delegations of hunters
were observed io town to-day taking
trains for the hunting woods. It prob
ably would be no exaggeration to say
that from now uutil Cbristmass there
will be up in Forest county an aver
age of four hunters, and perhaps more,
for every deer in the county. Blit

timate.
The English sparrow is now a
regular feature of some of the city
markets. Oae man iu Alhany, N. Y.,
has already disposed of 4,000 of these
birds. Plenty of people are finding
sparrow pie a very palatable dish. It
thus seems possible that the much
cussed little bird is entering upou a
period of general popularity. Frank

beautiful bride.
James L. Coon, quite a prominent
individual of Butler county, was ar
rested in that county yesterday as an
accomplice in the robbery of two
maiden ladies named McKeever, io
No vember, 1886. The information
sets forth that Wilson and Hsggerty,
the Wagner robber who were coo
victed aod seotenced from here io
May last, committed the rubbery, and
that Conn was an accomplice. The
arrest created quite a sensation iu the
neighborhood, a Conn bsi heretofore
borne a good reputation. Couoty De

A Horrible Fate J. P. Stephens
Burned to Death.
One of the most distressing fatali
ties that has ever occurred io this sec
tion happened at Newmanville, Clarion
couoty on Monday of this week. The
Temperance i louse at that place took
fire about 9 o'clock in the morning
and burned to the ground, and with it
was consumed the proprietor, Mr.
John P. Stephens, a very worthy citi
zen, aged nearly 75 years, and well
known to many of our readers.
It seems that Mr. Stepheus had not
been feeling well for some time, but
had been up in the rooming and kio
died the fire in the kitchen and then
gone hack to his room, up stairs, to
bed. Just bow the building took fire
is not known, but that it caught in the
upper portion of the bouse is pretty
definitely settled. There had been a
fire in one of the up-stairs rooms, be
sides a lamp had been left burning in
one of boarder's roo.i s, and to one or
the other of these the conflagration is
attributed. At all events, a son of the
family, Rule Stephens, was the first
to discover the fire upon his return
from an errand which had taken him
away an hour or so before. Rushing
into the house, where Mrs. Stephens
and two small children were yet ob
livious of the fire, bis first thought was
of his aged fathtr, to whose room he
ran, but on opening the door whs
driven back and almost overcome by
a dash nf smoke and flame which
burned him severely about the face.
His next thought was to efft-ct an en
trance by the outside window, and
rushiog out he procured a ladder,
climbed to the window and dashed it
tn pieces with his elbow, but here again
his heroic efforts to rescue bis father
were frustrated by the flames which
burst out and again burned him badly.
By this time several neighbors had ar
rived and were doing everything in
their power to rescue the victim from
bis awful doom, but without avail. Iu
the meantime the aged wife, now al
most frantic, bad made an attempt to
aactnd the stairs, but was driven back
after being very severely burned about
the face aud neck.
While this was goiug on, others were
making strenuous efforts to sare other
properly, aod by tearing down a small
shop next the building the baru was
saved from the flamns. The hotel, io
gether with nearly all its cootents whs
a total loss, there being no iosurauce
oo the property.
As soon as the fire had sufficiently
died away search was made for the
unfortunate man's remams. They
were fouud directly under the part of
the building where he bad slept, burn
ed to a ciisp aud out of all recognition.
The limbs, arms and bead were entire
ly flesh lees, while the trunk ol the
body was a blackened, charred mass.
Kiud friends took immediate charge
uf the remaius aud kept them from
the sight of the horror slrickeo wife
and children, who have the deepest
sympathy of every oue iu ibis most
beartreoding affair, which has cast a
gloom over the whole community.
