Mrs. Col. Thomas Dead.
It is our painful duty this morning
to chronicle the death of Mrs. Helen
Thomas, relict of the late Col. P.
D. Thomas, which oocurred last eve-
ing at 10:15 o'clock, after an illness
of but five days, she having been
taken with an attack of something in
the nature of cholera morbus on
hursday last. It is needless to say
this announcement will prove a severe
hock to the large circle of acquain
tances of this most excellent and
really esteemed lady, whose life from
childhood has been one of Christian
urilv.
Mrs. Thomas was past 73 years of
ge, and she was one ot lionesta s old
est residents. The funeral will take
place on Friday afternoon, the hour
not having been set as we go to press
A more extended notice of I bo de
ceased will be published next week.
The annual excursion of the Sab
bath Schools of this place to Chautau
qua Lake tins been set for Wednesday,
August 13, arrangements to that effect
having been nearly perfected. The
fare will be somewhat lower than on
previous years, the committee having
been able to secure a rate of $1.25 for
the round trip, which includes the ride
on the lake from Mayville to Chau
tauqua and return. Two children
under 12 years ride on one ticket,
same as last year. There will doubt
less be a large turnout of old and
young.

Clariugton Improves. A two-room
school house Is being built, on the site
formerly occupied by the old school house,
now too small to aecominodato the pupils
belonging to the school, and too much out
of repair for school purposes If large
enough. The new building will bo neat
and commodious, and will add much to
the appear auce of the place. Within the
last two years a new parsonage has been
built, belonging to the M. K. Church, and
partly finished. The good peoplo of the
church bave been giving a series of ice
cream suppers at the parsonage toward
raising funds to pay off the debt Inclined.
The last quarterly meeting of the M. K.
Conference year for the charge was held at

Mr. M Levy, one of Marienville's
wide awake and prosperous merchants,
gave the Republican a call one day
last week. He reports business brisk
in bis section, and says the Boston
Clothiog House, of which he is the
proprietor, is in a flourishing state,
and daily adding to its already com
plcte stock of general merchandise.
Scowden & Clark sold three
wagons last Wednesday. How is that
for business? This enterprise has been
built up entirely on pluck, energy and
honest work, three very essential ele
ments to success, and their work has
made for them a reputation that brings
business fur miles around. They pu
out only Grst class work, which always
speaks for itself.
The committee in charge has de
cided on August 28 and 29, as the
time for holding the annual Sunday
School convention for this county
The meeting will take place in the
Presbyterian Church, and it is hoped
to make this the most interesting and
profitable meeting yet held since the
organization in this county. Fuller
details will be published shortly.
The rig for the Duck & Sage well
on Peters Run, on the farm of Geo
Weaut, is going up as fast as good
rig-builders can hustle it along. The
machinery will likely be in motion by
Monday or Tuesday of next week,
It is located about 500 feet northwest
of the Wolcott well drilled several
years ago, and in which a good sand
and some oil and gas were found.
Two of Messrs. Collins & Co.'s
barges, which left here for Pittsburgh
about ten days ago, met witb some bad
luck on the way down. A team of
horses was taken along to do duty on
a tow line wheu the wind was unfavor
able ; ono of these became entangled
and was drowned, while Perce Shoe
maker, who was with the crew, came
home last evening uursing a broken
wrist. The barges were going below
under a special contract, hence tho
anxiety to get there and the adoption
of this plan to hurry the big boats
along.
Tbe Lawrence & Smearbaugh
dam is undergoing a material change
in construction, A new chute, sixty
feet in width is being put in to the
right of the present one, which it is
thought will greatly facilitate tbe run
ning of lumber, boats, fcc. When
this is done Messrs. Collins & Co. pro
pose shutting the water off at the left
of forge Uland, by running a wing
dam from tbe head of the island to the
left hand shore, thus confining the
water, which is widest at that place
than any other place on the creek, to
the right of the island. This ought to
make the ruuning so easy at that point
that a blind man could pilot a raft
around without dipping an oar. They
expect to have the job completed by
tbe first or middle of next week.
We have, advice from J. II. Beers
& Co., Chicago, that the historical
work of Forest county is so nearly
completed that they expect to com
mence its delivery to subscribers early
in August. It will be well for those
who bave subscribod to note this fact
and be prepared to receive the book.
We bave good authority for stating
that the work will be far beyond the
expectations of those who bave been
looking forward to its completion,
No labor has been spared in its com
pilation, and the aim has beeu to be
accurate in every detail, thus making
it a book of record, and one to be
depeodod upon as time goes on. The
compiler, Prof. M, A. Leason, has
been indefatigable in his endeavors to
give our peoplo a history of which
they could be proud, and the amount
of labor he put into the cause justifies
the prediction that uooe will be dieap
pointed.

A Good Letter from Barnett.
Your regular correspondent from this
end of the county will please understand
that wo do not wish to intrude on his ter
ritory, rights, or privileges, neither to
steal his niafVial for a news letter; but
having enloyed tbe pleasure of a bit of a
tramp through a part of "Old Forest"
quite recently, and knowing that very
often what Is nulto common-place to a
resident and likoly to go tinmcntioncd on
that account may be quito Interesting to a
stranger nnd to others, we concluded wo
wouldn't Intrude much, if any, by way of
a letter from a part of the county In which
wo bave had always a local pride, along
with a few stray Items gleaned othor whore,
Work out hero has been plenty so far
this Hummer and everybody has been
busy. Quito a number oj boats are being
built at Clarington, Maplo Creek, and
Coleman. Tho Maplo Creek Lumber
Company are having their boats built at
Maple Creek. At present the scaffold av
erages about two boats each week. Tho
Company has two mills, one at UedclytTo,
and tho other about 4 miles from Redclyfto,
at tho Maplo Creek Siding ou the P. A W
R. R. All the lumber sawed at tho last
mentioned mill ia shipped on the P. A W,
During this summer a large part of that
sawed at Redely fie Is hauled to tho Clarion
river at Maple Creek nnd most of it loaded
into boats there tho heavier stuff being
rafted and thus shipped to market by
water. Six or eight teams are now on
gaged In hauling thero, making two trips
por day. To facilitato hauling Iho Com
pany have built a plank road for two miles
from the mill over what would be for tho
most part swampy ground and Intersect
ing with tho Marlenvillo road near tho
middle of tho big windfall. Both tho
Company's mills are stocked by means of
tram-roads.
Shippen's mill has been in operation
probably a year maybo longer we are
not certain. The lumber cut there is
rafted and run from lluttonwood, 2 miles
above Clarington, to which placo it is car
ried from the mill on cars on a tram-road.
Tho loaded cars t un to tho creek by grav
ity.
Shields and Boesoin have bought tho
timber on tho Lowry tract, near Hominy
Ridgo, and are taking out and hauling the
same to the creek. Tho good price for
timber this Summer has stimulated con
siderable activity in tho timber business,
and an effort has been made to get quite a
littlo to crock, where possible to do so, to
run dnring the Summer freshets. More
especially is this the case up above Clar
ington along the Clariou where the dis
tance to haul is not so great.
We do not wish to slight anyone, aud
thero are other persons lumbering besides
these we have mentioned, but we do not
know enough about the business to ven
ture information. Wagos are good for
good hands.
An oil well is being drilled at Button-
wood on the ForeBt county side of the
Clarion. About 25 years ago a good gas
well was found on tho Jellorson county
side of the Clarion near the same placo,
Considerable wild-catting is being done
up above here, principally on the South
side of the Clarion. Du Bois, Reynolds
vlllo, and some other places, we believe,
are now supplied with gas from tho wells
found some time ago near the mouth of
Millstone.
, We havo had no rain over here for some
time, and unless we soon get some wet
weather hay will be about the only crop
we will harvest, to auy amount, this year,
Wo have lots of hay more than somo
folks havo money. Oats are nearly a fail
ure. Potatoes will be good if it rains,
Corn may bo first rate, if Summer lasts
long enough. On Monday morning last,
July 21, John Hillings of Unduly ife, wrote
his name in the frost on a board at that
place, so cold was it. Potatoos there were
"nipped" Just a littlo. The dry weather is
drying up the blackberries, and without
rain tbe crop will be short and the fruit
small. There are somo raspberries, and
they bi ing from 10 to 15 cents per quart,
Tho prospects are good for a large crop of
beechnuts and acorns. Fish are reported
very pleuty on tho lower Clarion, but
here they are very scarce owing to the
filth poured into the Clarion above this
from tanneries, and to some extent from
tho practice of "explosive fishing."
A utrango animal has been seen and
heard from for a year past in the woods
bordoring Maple Creek and tho head
water of Cherry Creek. It is described
as having a long body, short tail, large
foet, i-ho it legs, of a dark brindled or
striped color, with short oara probably a
Canada lynx, who, tired of wailing for
annexation, has concluded to emigrate.
Last Summer a gentleman fishing on
Maple Crock about 4 miles from the mouth
of the stream found a grown sheep lying
iu the bed of tho stream killed and partly
eaten by aouie animal apparently within a
day or two of the time of his discovery,
and near the sheep a live-pronged buck
(doer) lay, also with its throat cut, no
doubt by the sauio auiuial ; bulb probably
from hero to Rrookville and return. And
a mail, daily, we think, but II not on al
ternate days, beginning on Monday, from
here to Beach Bottom (Arroyo P. O.) and
return. Arroyo postolllce was formerly
at Irwin's Mill, two miles below Beach
Bottom, and at the placo where the Ridg
way road leaves, or did leave the Clarion
river. But the P. O. and namo have both
been "lifted" and carried on up to Beach
Bottom saw mill and tannery. Landlord
Henderson of the Re id House, hero, Is
contractor on tho Arroyo route. He sold
out his contract to a Mr. George, a man
upwards of 60 years of age, not long ago,
On his second trip Mr. George's team ran
off and threw him out breaking a limb
and otherwise Injuring him. Mr. Hen
derson again has charge of the route. A
mall runs from Arroyo to Ridgway nnd
roturn, leaving Arroyo in tho morning
and returning in tho afternoon, nnd failing
to connect with tho Clarington mail either
way. We have no Sunday mails.
Rov. Jenkins, colored, who is familiar
to many In your end of the county, as
sisted by othor talent hold a camp meeting
here this Summer not long ago. From
here he went up the river to Spring
Croek, and is now in Ridgway.
A numbor of our young pooplo have
taken it into thoir heads and hearts towed
this Summer. Here a our hand and our
voice wishing them a good voyage over
the matrimonial sea. May no squalls they
shall encounter find them unprepared,
nor bo of such magnitude as to bring ilis
aster. May the sun (7) of their happiness
be always a star of the first magnitude,
and their da (y)s bo many and full of
beauty.
Judge Coon Is Interesting himself alittlo

out" nearly 40 young carp this Suinmor;
and had previously, about 2 years ago,
"planted" about 20. Tho first ones he was
somewhat unfortunate with. But all aro

The public road from Redclyfle to
Marion is better than we ever saw it bo-
fore. Iiarrin' a fow chuck holes it is good,
And theso could be now witb little outlay,
and should be, repaired.
Marienvilie has improved -wonderfully
in tho past 3 years. . A gentleman in busi
ness thero informed us that there were
now there in active operation 16 stores of
various kinds. All tbe hotels (we think
there are 0) have all the custom they can
take care of. Tho extract works near the
town is being pushed rapidly. The com
pany, we aro told, agrood that they would
not put in a company store, nor build
bouses for their employes. This agreo
ment is a decided advantage to tbe town
in general. Building lots that sold for (15
last Spring bave more than trebled in
value. Ordinary houses rent for fd per
month. Marieuvlllo has a good school
bouse, built 2 years ago, nnd located al
most, or quite, in tho limits of the town,
but with plenty of room outside as well as
inside. Jcnks now pays cash for teachers
but tho wages are not quite so good as
formerly all around. By tbe way, Barnett
pays $30 per month to teachers better
than she has paid for a long time.
Business is brisk all along the P. A W,
