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.

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

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

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.
