"When the robins nest again,"
she said, "I suppose my cold will get

and those two were happy.
-A contemporary says that among
the raoet dangerous specimens of couu
terfeit silver dollars which has ever
appeared is one dated 1883 and pos
sessed of as good and sharp a ring as
the genuine coin. It is made of ant
mony and gl&rs.
Mr. Jas. McGaffigao of Balltown,
an old friend of the Republican,
made us a pleasant call yesterday
moruing. Mr. M. has been the Ball
town Oil Co. 'a main machinist for the
past seven years, aud always given the
best of satisfaction to his employers.
Messrs. C. A. Snow & Co., Patent
Solicitors, opp. U. 8. Patent Office,
Washington, D. O, have no side-issues
to detract their attention ; bence their
success. If you wish to know any
thing about patents, trade marks or
copyrights, write them. Read their
advertisement io this paper.
The first snow of any account fell
on Monday of this week. Not enough
for sleighing, about three inches of it
and with smooth roads, it lacked but
little of making better sleighing than
wheeling. The "tracking" was quite
good yesterday morning, and about
every other man in the town was out
looking for deer, and still the market
is not glutted this morning.
Among the many names suggested
for the Speakership of the incoming
House of Representatives at Harris
burg, none strikes us so favorable as
that of Hon. C. C. Thompson, of
Warreo, and we are pleased to. note
that the suggestion meets with very
general favor all over the northwest.
We believe bini to be the most capable
man for the important place that has
yet been mentioned. The House
would make no mistake in the selection
of Mr. Thompson as its presiding
officer.
The wood-bouse and part of the
fence surrounding the church yard of
the Lutheran Church on German Hill,
was burned on Wednesday night of
last week. It is supposed to have
been the work of tramps who had
camped there that night. An old
stove which had been set out near the
wood house had been drawn up to the
door and fired up.
Burglars, says the Warren Ledger,
are getting in their fine work at Shef
field. Tbey began operations there
last week by going through the resi
dence of Mr. Radiker and carrying off
with them all the valuables they could
find, besides a quantity of clothing
and provisions. The family slept
hrough it all. Mr. Radiker'a watch
was found in the yard the next morn
ing. We notice by exchanges that
some persons have made the valuable
suggestion to the effect that if each
farmer would put a small sign bearing
bis name ou the fence or gate in front
of their farms it would be a great con
venience to parties driving along the
roads. The idea is a good ono aud we
would like to see it adopted in the
townships adjoining. Who will make
the start?
On Thanksgiving day Messrs.
Collins & Krettler of Nebraska, pre
sented each of their employes who are
married, with a turkey, aud to the sin
gle men tbey eel up a royal dinner
prenaied by Mrs. Thompson at the
Forest Hotel. We have a card from
the employes aforesaid in which they
ask us to publicly return their thanks
to the firm for this excellent treat, so
richly enjoyed by all.
Among the lecturers secured for
the approaching teachers' institute of
this couuty, are Col. Sanford, two
nights, and ex Governor Cunihach, of
Indiana,- one uight. The former is
well known and deservedly popular in
this county, while the latter has few
equals as au institute lecturer. Supt.
Kerr is leaving nothing undone to
make this session the most interesting
one ever held in Forest county.
-Friday evening next, 5th inst.,
Prof. Stevens, an elocutionist of con
siderable renown, will give a literary

The affair will be under the auspices

tion wish to assure their friends that
if tbey come in anticipation of having
a fme literary treat, they will not be
disappointed. Admission 25 cents.

Tbe fallowing comment of the
Cherry Creek News will apply almost
anywhere: "When a person flares up
at an article in which no names are
mentioned, it looks as though they had
been hit. If we throw out au old
shoe, and some one comes along and
puts it on, we can't help it. If certain
persons have certain disagreeable and
faulty characteristics which are recog
nized as soou as we hold a mirror be
fore them, the fault is theirs and out
ours."

Co.," will give an entertainment at

Jacob Z. Ward, ,'anager.
Word was received by friends here
yesterday of the death of Mrs. Chris
tine Hulings, widow of the late Major
James Hulings, for many years resi
deuts of this place. She died at the
home of a relative in Fredouia, N. Y.,
on tbe 30th ult., where the pust few
years she has made ber home. About
20 years ago she went to live with ber
son Wm. W. Hulings, in Louisville,
Ky. Graudmother Hulings had at
tained the ripe a-e of ninety five
years, and up to the time of her death
bad beeu quite active. She was ever
a woman of kind and geutle disposi
tion, aud greatly beloved by all who
knew her.
Mr. El. Connelly of Chautauqua
county, N. Y., paid friends in thii lo
cality a visit during the week, and
took occasion, while in town with his
brother, Constable Connelly of Hick
ory, yesterday, to make us a pleasant
call. Ed. used to be one of the boys
among us, and although that was
many years ago, time, it seems, bad
not changed him much when once we
got in conversation with him. lie is
now one of the prosperous farmers
along the beautiful Lake Chautauqua.
A new club, knowu as tbe "Neigh
borly Neighbors," is being formed in
several of the cities of the laod. Its
watchword is, "Do unto others as you
would that they should do unto you."
Members of the club pledge themselves
to surrender one penny to the treasury
every time tbey speak disparagingly
of any one. The money thus raised is
used for the benefit of tbe poor. Tio
nesta has many societies, and the ques
tion is, does she need a club of "Neigh
borly Nighbors?" Who can answer?
Taylor Carson, at one time a resi
dent of this place, died in Pittsburgh
on Friday last. Many of our citi
zens have a pleasant remembrance of
Mr. Carson, who was a brother of
James G. Carson, now of Nebraska,
and will be pained to learn of bis
death, which was very unexpected to
bis frieuds here. He was just recover
ing from a severe attack of typhoid
fever, and was ahlo to go out some,
and it is supposed he was taken with a
sudden relapse. He leaves a wife but
no children, and was aged about 44
years.
Our subscribers who have been
lately reporting some prolific yields iu
the way of buckwheat, pumpkins, po
tatoes, etc., will notice iu his letter, in
another column, that Maj. B. J. Reid,
writing from the new Stato of Wash
ington, is contributing some timely
observations io the si me line. 105
bushels of wheat to the acre aud tur
nips that measure three feet in circum
ference will be found among Maj.
Keul b western exhibit, and we are
afraid some of his Clarion county
friends will have to take a back' seat.

The resignation of Secretary of the
Commonwealth Charles W. Stoue was
accepted on Saturday, and he assumed
his place in Congress on Monday of
this week. His report to the Governor
of the doiugs of his office since his
incumbencv is an interesting one.
During tho past two years 13 death
warrants and 29 . respites have beeu
issued ; iu tbe same period 7 deth
sentences were commuted to life ini
prisonment, aod 49 pardons were
granted. 1,871 charters ot ditlureut
character wore granted during that
time. The Telegraph says that he re
tires from cffiuial life in Ilarrisburg
with the good wishes of huudreds of
warm frieuds ringing in his ears,
Deputy Secretary J. H. Lnogenecker
has been promoted t the vacancy.
Henry M. Sianley was asked by
a Philadelphia reporter: "With all
your experience, do you consider tbe
efforts of foreign missionaries really
have proven a succees?'' Stauley's
reply wus: "Yes, sir, most emphatic
ally. I am as certain of it as that I
am sitting here talking to you. I am
perfectly convinced of the fact that
the woik of missionaries is successful
It has not alwavs been carried on
rightly or managed wisely; neverlhe
less, they can be shown to-day as
Something marvelous, considering the
country where they have been at work
and considersug that tho people were
rum drinking savages, accustomed to
robbery, fraud and murder whenever
it was possible. The Protestants have
the strongest bold in Africa so far.
but the mUsiouary work ought to be
systematically carried on and it isn't
now."

in Titusville recently. The surviving
members of the old Swordsmen's Club of
Pithole, a number of the survivors of the

knights of the early oil trade, were present
and had a glorious time.
The Nicely brothers, Joseph and David,
convicted In Somerset county, in May,
13!', of the murdor of Herman Umbcrger,
escaped from the new Jail of that county
on Saturday night last, together with two
other prisoners. The Nicclys are a tough
pair, this being tliclr second escape. They
would have been hanged in a short time,
as the board of pardons had refused them
a rehearing. P. 8. Dave Nicely has been
recaptured, lie broke an arm and leg in

barn about a mile from the jail.

"Uncle" John Gilson, as he is familiarly
called, who lives at Gilson's Ridge, iu
Eastern Crawford, bad a thrilling exper
ience, last Thursday night. He is 91 years
old and walked about a mile, on Thursday,
to tho house of his brother, where he took
dinner. He started for home about
o'clock, and losing his way, wandered
around the woods. At dark his friends
became alarmed, and a search was insti
tuted. The search was continued all of
Thursday night, and Friday up till 2 p.
in., whon be was found in a sheep shed,
IIo was alive, but fearfully chilled and
exhausted. He will probably recover, but
It Is a miracle f,iat he did not perish.

Seventy-five';. ago Jefferson county
was a vast wilder , with only a Tew
settlers. The wood.i . ere filled with witd
animals, among which' were bears, wolves,
elk, deer, panthers, wildcats, etc. Among
these the panther was reckoned tho king
and at the same timo perhaps the most
cowardly. From the branches of a tree he
would attempt to spring upon his intonded
victim, but missing his aim he would act
like a beast conquered iu fight. It is told
that as a Dutchman was driving his wagon
through our woods in the early days of
tho couuty, along a primitive road,
panther sprang from an overhanging tree
upon him, but missing its aim lit in his
wagon bed. He scized.it by the tail witli
one hand, while with the other he bela
bored it with his whip, the animal cower
ing down till its brains were knocked ou
with an ax in the hands of the man's son
Once in the early history of tho county a
panther leaped in nt a window to seize a
bnbo. A young woman entered the room
with a scream, aud it let the babo drop,
and fled. At another time ono had got ns
fur as tho fence with a babe, when the beast
dropped the baby and escaped to the
woods. Hrookvilte Democrat.
The discovery of a cure for consumption
by Professor Koch, of Berlin, has agitated
the entire world, and no wonder, for if it
be certain to cure this most dreaded (lis
ease hitherto regarded as incurable it
will be the greatest discovery or the age,
But, as yet, this cure has not been tried in
the United States, for the reason that the
lymph used in the cure for injection pur
poses has not yet reached thisceuntry, nor
will it be for months to come. Secretary
Blaine himself, In tho interest of eminent
Amoricau physicians, cabled to Berlin in
tho hope of securing tho lymph and re
ccived au answer from the American
Charge d'AHiiires that Professor Koch
finds it impossible to supply the demand
in his own practice and Unit of his person
al professional friends, and therefore can
not send any to this country. Further
more, he has not sent any lymph to Amer
ica aud any slutuinent to the contrary is
mado witli intent to deceive. The man
who advertises that he has secured som
of Koch's lymph hiuiply lies, and should
be dealt with as an impostor, and tho poor
dupe upon whom ho imposes should luso
no time in bringing him to justice. Su
statements are fraudulent, and it is fiit
water rascality tomuke tliein, for tliev are
mado for tho express purpose ofdupin
those who are ready to take any and a
chances to ward off the disease, and who
are all the more easily duped. The use of
bogus lymph, under prctenso that it i
made by Koch, may be attended with very
serious consequences, and sufferers from
consumption should be very guarded.
