The brick building in which his large general store was kept, owned by the Bonner heirs, was destroyed, together with the most of Mr. B.'s goods, which, howev er, were fairly well covered by insur ance, we understand. Last Saturday evening a large number of the young friends of Miss Rosa Davidson gave her a complete surprise at the residence of Mr. S. II Haalet, where she has made her home for the past three years, and a most enjoyable evening was spent.

Deceased had stopped here quite often going to and from his work, and was well aod favorably known to a number of our readers An elegant line of winter caps, gloves and mittens just opened t t D, Barnett's famous Low Price Store, Marked dowo low. It A very distressing accident oc curred at the Fee school house, just out of the city limits of Franklin last Friday evening after school bad been dismissed, by which fourteen boys, ranging in age from 10 to 14 years were more or less seriously injured. Some large boys who should have had better sense, had loaded a piece of 1) inch pipe 3 feet long, with rock powder and plugged both ends, and give it to the little fellows, telling them to throw it on a fire somewhere and see it go off. They took it to an open field where the boys all gathered around while one of them proceeded to investigate the infernal machine, pounding it with a stone. The concussion fired the charge in the pipe, and a terrible explosion occurred, hurling fragments of the pipe in all directions, cutting, bruising and mangling the innoceut little fel lows in a friirhtful manner. Many of them will be maimed fur lifo. One boy lost his right hand, while another is liable to lose his eyes;ght. No finer selection of gent's fur uinhing goods can bo found in the county than that at D. Barnett's fa mous Low Price Store. Prices all the way from oOc. up.

It We received sample copies of the popular Reading Almanac for 1800, Der Xeue Heading Kalender and the Reading Eagle Almanae. These AI roanacs are made after the system of the German Almanacs. The astro nomical calculations are made by Will I. Ibacb, son of the famous black smith astronomer, Lawreuce J. Ibach, who made the calculations for a sum ber of years. The Hundred Year Almanac is a special feature of these Almanacs, and people place much confidence in its predictions for the year. Der Neue Heading Kalender is the oldest publication of its kind in Pennsylvania. It has been published yearly since 1804. These Almanacs are for (ale by all dealers, or are sup plied by the publisher, Jesse G. Haw ley, Reading, Pa.

Samckyo. Death of Mrs. W. J. Roberta. Mrs. Taricy 8., wife of W. J. Rob- erts, died at her home in Tionesta, Saturday morning, October 26, 1889. Her death was sudden, she being ill with cramps only a litllo more than 24 hours, and the announcement of her death was the first intimation that most of our citizens had that she had even been ailing. Mrs. Roberts' maiden name was Harriogton, and she was born io Chautauqua county, N. Y., October 29, 1825, being therefore in her 64th year. She was married March 20, 1840, to Wm. J. Roberts. Five chil dren was the result of this union: Halberl W. Roberts, of Mayville, N. Y. ; Kossuth L., who died in child hood; Adulva E., wife of C. M. Colt, of Meadville; Lucy A., wifo of J. W. Jamieson, of Freepoit, Pa., and Perry L , deceased. The death of Mrs. Roberts removes from our midst oue whose demise will be keenly felt by the community in general. Ever kind and generous, there is scarcely a family in town to whom sbe had not ministered in sick- oers or distress. This was one of the distinguished traits of character that endeared her to many who will miss and mourn her taking away while they live. hatever she did she did it well and most cheerfully. A friend of the deceased oHers the lollowing kindly tribute to her memory, which is strikingly correct : "The W. C. T. U., of which she was an active member has lost one of their brightest lights, and marching as they did as a body to the depot, was a slight testimony of the esteem in which she wss held by her co-workers in the temperance cause. Conscientious iu her convictions of right she was willing to work and to wait. She posscssod the power by ber example to inspire others to activity in good ways aud good works, and was greatly, esteemed by those who worked with her. Being a great reader she wai well informed as the wants of the day, and as a member of society was ever 'diligent n business, fervent in spirit,' possess ing a bruad sympathy lor Humanity, She is one who will be missed as true friend, a model wife and affection ate mother. Mrs. Roberts, in her younger days, was a school teacher, aud she always manifested a great in terest in the public schools and teach ers' institutes, which she always at tended when health permitted, often taking part in the same. Her mem orr wm cooci aoa sne rememoereu some of the gems of literature con tained in the English reader, a famous old book of fine collections of prose and poetry of the best authors in our language. She will be missed alike by her co-workers in the temperance cause, and those in affliction, for she was always kind in cases of sickuets or misfortune, having strong sympa thirs with all who were iu distress." Beautiful and impressive services were held at the family homestead on Monday at 10 o'clock, Rev. C. C Ruraberger officiating, after which, followed by a large concourse of neigh bors and friends, her remains were conveyed to the depot, thence to Westfield, N. Y., the home of ber childhood, where they were interred by the side of other kindred gone be fore. On ber coffin lid was a silver plate on which was engraved "Our Mother." Also a beautiful wreath of flowers io the form of a cross and labelled, "W. C. T. U." It is worthy of note that she as buried on Ooto ber 20th, the 64th anniversary ot her birth. Among the relatives who attended the obsequies here wo note her brother, B. L. Harrington, ex-Sheriff of Chau tauqua county, N. Y., and his wife; her only surviving sister, Mrs. Fanny Holcomb of Erie, Pa. ; her daughters, Mrs. C. M. Cott of Meadville, and Mrs J. W. Jamieson and husband, of Fret-port, Pa East Hickory.

They are doing effi cient work and if the "young idea is not taught how to shoot" it will be no fault of theirs. Dick Rhodes met with a painful ac cident not long since. He was thrown from a load of straw, injuring his shoulder and breaking a small bone in his wrist. He is recuperating iu Warren Co. George J. Lacy Dead. When our report of the shooting of George Lacy closed lat week, nothing in the nature of an operation had been performod, but upon the arrival of Dr. Sutton, Pittsburgh's eminent specialist, he decided at once on an operation as the only chance of saving the injured man's life. It was accord ingly performed by Dr. Sutton with the assistance of Drs. Ross, Ritubey and Stranahan, on Wednesday noon. A large hole was found in the omen tup and transverse colon. The ab dominal cavity was full of fluid from the bowels, mixed with blood from ruptured blood vessels. The large hole in the colon was carefully repair ed by stitching, and the abdomen was washed out and closed. The ball, which it was found had passed through 11 thicknesses of elothing before en tering the abdomen, was not found. Before the operation there was no hope of recovery; after it there was some, but in spite of it tho slender thread of life snapped, and Mr. 'Lacy passed away at about 11 o'clock a. ni., on Thursday. On Thursday evening, Justice of the Peace F. E. Allison, acting Coroner, summmoned o jury and held an iu- quest on the body, aod after taking the testimony of some witnesses, re turned a verdict charging Charles W. Hewitt with the murder of the de ceased. Hewitt bad a hearing before Justice Cobb on Friday, and was com milled to jail for trial at December term. The remains of the deceased were brought through here on Saturday afternoon and taken to Erie for burial, beside those of his mother. A Urge oumber of the friends of the deceased tiviug io this place attended the obse quies at his late residence, which were conducted by Rev. J. V. McAninch of tbe Tionesta Presbyterian Church. Besides other kindred and frieuds Mr, Lacy leaves a wife aud two small children to mourn his tragic and un timely death, which is looked upon as a severe blow to the business interests of the locality, as it will be a diflkull matter to fill his place as manager of the firm's affairs at Golinza. The Erie Evening Herald of Monday has the following account of the funeral at that place: "The remains of George J. Lacy were buried in tbe Erie Cemetery yesterday. Brief ser vices were concluded at the residence of Dr. Straoaban by Rev. Solon Cobb, The friends 'then proceeded to tbe cemetery, where tbe last utes were performed and the body committed to its last resting place. Tbe bearers were Messrs. William Spencer, Col. E P. Gould, Charles Foster, Walter Scott and J. H. Henry. Mr. Lacy was well known in Erie and his deep learning won great respect for him from all who met him." The many Oil City friends of Mr. Lacy publish the' following touching memoiial iu this morning's Derrick : IX MEMORIAM. Wo havo lost George J. Lacy, our friend is no more with us. Those who knew him best feot his loss the most. The silen I grief each feels is our bent tribute to his memory. Tho ttars wo shed for our loss are few, but sincere. To a mind fortified as his was by tin study of tho highcxt and uoblest lives thut have shed their lustre on the world, (loath had neither fears nor tcr ror. To him it was but a transition from this world in w hich he had been placed, to tbe mercy of the All Merciful, who had placed liiui here. Ho was a man peculiar ly fitted by his disposition to be a well spring of pleasure and intolU-ctual enjoy ment to those who hud the privilege of associating with and were capable of ap preciating him. ills conversation was sparkling with thoso jowcls which tho ex ploring mind brings Ironi the cave of knowledge. His craving for information and fondness for study compelled him to surround himtclf with the greatest and best minds of past ages. Iu tho lettered ease of his well furnished library, stored with the greatest and best ancient and modern authors, holding sweet commun ion with them, they were to him as fond friends who familiarly and freely yielded to him those thoughts that conferred immor tality on them. He was a profound think er, and a cogent, clear reasonttr, and hud he been spared to us would have inevita bly mado his intellectual mark on any community in which his lot had beeucaat. He has loft us, and is with the Saviour who taught the God of the parable of the Prodigal Son. From the true friends left behind George J. Lacy take our last proud and aud farewell.
