Harry Keating, who came up

says the reports regarding the preva

the present time, however, there is not
a case in the place. Blizzard.
Many of the friends in this place

the bride's parents. The Republican

An altercation took place lust
Friday morning between Grant Erb,
who works on West Hickory creek,
and Lewis Stiain of the same neigh

only partially regained consciousness.
We are without particulars, but under
stand that Erb is in a critical condi

-Mr. Rowland Cobb has accepted
a responsible position with one of the
largest lumbering institutions of this
country, and departed on Monday for
headquarters. His particular field of
operations will be in North Carolina,
where he may locate some lime during
the coming summer. There isn t any
doubt about Mr. Cobb's ability to
handle a lumbering concern of almost
oy magnitude, and the company is to
be congratulated on securing him.
Patience, sometimes, ceases to be
a virtue, and Collector Uanheld bas
about arrived at that point in the
matter of tax collections. He has
been very patient with many for al
most a year now, but he cannot and
will not endure it longer, and he hopes
that this appeal will reach the eye of,
and be heeded by, those who have put
him off from time to time, with various
excuses, until he is obliged to resort to
harsher methods. The money muBt
now be forthcoming. Don't forget
that.
The following concerning Mr. W,
G. McCain who moved from Nebraska,
this county, to Brockwayville, Jeffer
son county, last season, will interest
many of our readers : "A timber sale
involving what has been estimated at
from 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 feet o
piue and hemlock, mostly the latter
has just been closed here. The Ellis
"700 acre lot." about a mile north of
the village, was sold to BuzarJ
McCain, whose mill property adjoins
it. They will manufacture the lira
ber."

Rev. Wm. Elliott. Many of tho
friends of this able minister, who lived
a few years among us, will read with
great pleasure of his success in his
new field in Canal Fulton, Ohio, as is
evinced by the following notice of bis
work, which we clip from the March
number of the National Jresbyterian
"Our congregation here is still living.
Four years ago Rev. W. Elliott was
called to the pastorate. At that time
we were struggling with an old debt
of $740 on our parsouage. Since then
the debt has been cancelled, aud we
have repaired our church edifice, in
cluding new roof, new pews, new fur
nace, new carpets aud remodelled lec
ture room, costing in all $1,613, all
paid. Our Ladies' Aid Society con
tributed $300 of the .above sum.
During the past four years we have
raised and paid for beoeficeut purposes,
including pastor's salary, $6,659.72
Our rededieation services were held

The Dawson well, which was just
tapping the sand when our report of
last week closed, opened up in good
shape. The sand is a mystery to old
operators in this section, and may be
said to be a new find entirely. It
might also be put as a fourth sand, as
three distinct and separate sands have
been gone through. At all events
there is piles of it 59 feet and it is
a very handsome article. The well is
now doing about 25 barrels, has
abundance of gas, and pumps a great
deal of strong salt water with the oil.
This new strike bas greatly stimulated
operations in that section, and many
of the wells which were given up as
dusters, or practically so will be drill
ed deeper in hopes of striking this
new eand. The territory is about all
gobbled up, and much of it is cut in
very small pieces, which makes it all
the belter for activity in operations.
Representative Randall was home
from Harrisburg over last Sabbath.
He informs us that the 3 year consta
ble bill, mention of which we made
last week, was duly passed and signed
by the Governor in time to take effect
at the recent elections, but that owing
to the peculiar wording of the section
specifying when it shall go into effect,
there is a diversity of opinion as to
whether the officers elected this year
will get the benefit of a three-year
term. The act says that at the elec
tions held in February next, consta
bles shall be elected for three years, !
&c. As the act was passed in Feoru
ary the construction placed upon it is
that it does not take effect until next
year, the court win nueiy oecaiieu
upon to decide the matter before the
time for another election comes "around.
As to the Assessors, those elected at
the recent election will hold over for
three years, no such ambiguity of lan
guage having crept into that measure.

M. Jennie Hunter, wife of W. A.
Grove, died at ber home in Tionesta,
March 10th, 1889. She was born in
Tionesta, July 15, 1850, daughter of
the late W. F. Hunter, M. D. For
many years Mrs. Grove had been an
invalid, so that she was debaned from
taking the active part in social life for
which she was otherwise so well fitted.
Although an invalid, 'she was uni
formly cheerful and unsomplainiog.
A Lumber of years ago she was con
verted and connected herself with the
M. E. Church aud as long as her
physical condition would permit she
was ennstaut, in her attendance on the
public service of the church. Of late
her sufferings have been intense, yet
she never uttered u word of complaint.
She repeatedly assured her friends that
ber faith in Jesus as ber Saviour was
unclouded. Although she had maoy
tics binding her to earth a beautiful
home, kind husband and mother, Ihree
loving sisters aud a brother, yet she
willingly turned away from everything
of earth to enter into the possession of
the "house not made with hands."
"Fur me to live is Christ, but to die
is gain."
"No, no, it is not dying,
To wear a lordly crown ;

Of Him whoso swav we owu."

We had the pleasure of attending a

Good order prevailed during the entire

ancient style, which was quite amusing
to young America.

The Philadelphia branch of the Irish
National League will early petition our
government to inquire how far the British
spy system ha been carried on in our
government. The action i based on the
testimony of Dr. Lo C'aron before tho Par-

that spies paid by Oreat Britian are now
employed In the government departments
and in the United State army. It advise
a demand upon England for the names
and aliases of all its spies In this country.
A young girl living in Harrisburg, aged
about 14 years, called on a physician in
that city a few day ago and asked to be
treated for a singular affliction. Her
mouth was stretched half way acros her
face, her chin drooped, and her face in
general presented a sorry nppearanee.
Sbo was a gum chewor, and so constantly
did she employ her jaws that ber facial
muscles were paralyzed. She also lost all
aotion of the muscles, and her nerve
were In a dilapidated condition. She is
improving undor tho doctor's treatment.
A nttsburg physician gives the opinion
that natural gas, as it Is now used in
dwellings, has a tendoncy towords causing
throat trouble and deafness. Tho gas is
turned on to such an extent that a very
high temperature is maintained through
out tho day and night. This at all times
is unhealthy. The heat 1 entirely with
out molsturo; that will naturally dry up
tho dolicate membranes and produce a
dry catarrhal disease, which very mate
rially aOVcls tho ear aud throat, producing
both hoarseness and deafnoas. With coal
it is different. There is a certain amount
of moisture given out In tho combustion
along with the various degrees of heat ob
tained. Tho theory Is that tho excossivo
and constant heat dries up tho membrane
in the head. It scorns te be a reasonable
theory. We believe if tho exact facts
were known, it would be found that an
increasing tendcucy to pneumonia aud
throat ailments in natural gas towns has
its origin in over uso of tho fuel. The
oven-like temperature bakes and parboils
the surfaces, keeping tbe body in a tendor
state and an easy prey to chills on going
Into a bracing atmosphero. Keep a lower
temperature in silting and sleeping rooms.
