Rafting is over again for a short

high enough for good running last
week, but considerable lumber man
aged to get out to the mouth of the
crrek nevertheless, and some of it that
wus dropped out into the river before
coupling up, will get through to the
lower market all right. The cold
snap has caught most of the boys,
however, and they will have to wait
for another rise.

suppose, have his country seat there

Monday evening last. Stow Post of
this place gathered at the school house,

composed of the citizens of the com
munity. The Woman's Relief Corps
participated in the exercises, which
were very eotertaining to all who were
preseut. The celebration of the quarto-centennial
iu this place was a suc
cess. Let us hope that very many
who helped to make it so may be
spared to assist in the semi-centennial.
Last Thursday morning while as
sisting to get a raft ofT that had run
aground at Forge island, above the
creek bridge, Andrew Small met with
an accident which came near proving
fatal. The men were using what is
known as a "wench," or a sort of iron
windlass, and when the cable was
about as light as it could well be
drawn, the windlass gave way and was
hurled at a fearful speed through the
air. Mr. Small was struck by it on
the side and neck, and for a time ren
dered unconscious. Ho was shortly
removed to the residence of Treasurer
Hagerty, where he has since been con
fined to his couch. He is slowly
mending, but is still very sore and
much pained, and it will likely be
several weeks ere be is able to attend
to business sgaio.

KILLED AT nOTER'j STATION.
Chan. Mlddauirli, a W. X. T. & P. Brake
man, Meets Instant Death.
A fatal accident occurred at Hoo
ter's Station, three miles below this
place, on Thursday afternoon last, of
which the Oil City Blizzard gives the
following correct account:
"When freight train No. 95 arrived
from up the river at 6:10 o'clock
Thursday evening, about one hour
late, it brought down the almost head
less body of Chas. Middaugh, the
front brakeman, who had been killed
at Hunter's, Forest county, at 4
o'clock. At that point the freight
side tracks and waits for the passenger
train to pass which leaves here at half
pastS o'clock. It was Middaugh's
duty as head brakeman to open the
switch and let the freight train in. He
did so aud got on the train again, sig
naling to the engineer to go ahead.
He was lust seen by the middle brake
man, Dan Sullivan, and was at that
time on the train two or three cars
from the engine. Tho men in the
caboose supposed that ho had gone to
the engine so as to be at tho head to
opcu the switch and let the freight out
when the passenger Irain passed, while
the men on the engine supposed that
he had gone back In the caboose. As
he was not nt hand when the passenger
train passed, the engineer sent the
fireman to open the switch and the
train pulled out. Conductor Botnan
was standing on the rear of the ca
boose and when within a few car
lengths from the lower opening of the
switch to the main track, saw the body
of Middaugh upon the ties. Exami
nation showed that the head had beeu
almost severed from the body, hanging
by a single ligament. Otherwise the
body was little mutilated and in the
fatal full appeared to have beeu
thrown in such a manner that the neck
and toes lay upon the rails. How the
accident occurred is mere conjecture.
The most plausible theory is that after
last seen by the middle brakeman
Middaugh went on toward the engine
to wait in the cab for the arrival of
the passenger train, and that in jump
ing from the box car adjoining to the
tender he fell and was killed as the
freight wus pulling into the switch.
It was in this manner that Wm. Sweet
was killed last Sunday night at War
ren aud it was Sweet's place that Mid
daugh bad taken.
"The remains were brought to Oil
City at the time noted and taken to
Paul's undertaking establishment,
where they were dressed and placed in
a casket. Notice was sent by the Cor
oner of Forest county that the remains
would have to be brought back to that
county and the inquest held there.
They were accordingly takeu to Tio
nesta at 8 o'clock this morning accom
panied by the crew of the train F.
E. Boman, conductor; Dan. Sullivan,
middle brakeman ; Dan. Mack, rear
brakeman ; A. T. Havice, engineer,
and D. Kightliuger, fireman. After
the inquest the body was brought back
to Oil City and taken ou the 11
o'clock train to Corry, the former
home of the deceased. It was accom
panied by the young man's father who
came down at 9 o'clock Thursday
night aud remained here until aftor
the inquest.
"Chas. Middaugh was about tweuty
four years of age and leavei at Corry
a young wife, to whom he was mar
ried last Christmas, and a number of
relatives. He had been employed a
number of years at railroad work,
having started as yard clerk at Corry.
For some lime he had been working
bere as an extra brakeman and took,
as previously noted, the place made
vacant by the death of William
Sweet."
Coroner Rumberger's jury, consist
ing of the following named citizens:
J. E. Hillard, Foreman, W. W. Grove,
Frank Huuter, J. H Funcs, L. Ful
ton and Chas. R. Davis, rendered a
verdict iu accordance with the facts
above given.

NEWSY NOTES.
Every community has some special day
for settlements of a business character and
for moving. By common consent wo have
selected April t it fir both of theo impor
tant h llulis. New York Uikos January 1st
and May 1st for each, respectively, which
Is more sensible. Ordinarily, April 1st
concerns Itself moro with big transactions,
payment of Interest, transfer ol Judgments
and mortgages, recording of deeds and so
on; but so far as possiblo all little bills
should be attended to. The bulk of our
indebtedness In small owings the storo
bill, the blacksmith, butcher, grocery man,
shoemaker, the printer and dozens of oth
er eroditors are owed by hundreds of peo
ple, and tho aggregato of tho Indebtedness
is immense. It is through these people
tho world moves, lives or has its being,
and they should bo pnid.
Quito a number of the stock raisers and
fiirmers down in Lawrence county aro in
hot water, tho beater of tho water being a
livo stock liisuninco company. Two or
three years ago they Insured their stock
with un agent by thi hundred. For some
reason tho farmers bcratno suspicious of
tho workings of tho company and ceased
to pay their dues and assessments. Tliore
was a clause In each of the policies that tho
holder must pay dues as long as the poli
cies were not returned. This the people
failed to discover and tho company has
sued tho holders of tho policies. Seventy
eight judgments havo already been issued
against different farmers. Tho suits were
all brought to recover back duos and sev
eral of the holders will take their eases to
court and make a fi;;ht, alleging that tho
company failed in soveral instances to pay
for deceased stock tlmt was Insured.
ThoSocret Servico officers dcclaio tho
counterfeit two dollar silver certificates a
most dangerous one. The vignette of
Hancock is as flue as 'ho original, and tho
lettering and lntlio work is an exact copy
of tho Treasury note. In fuct, the only
dillerence Is too minute to bo visible to the
naked eye. In tho upper left hand and
lower right hand corner of tho genuine
note Is the figure 2, and on its face is en
graved characters so minute that they not
logible except under a magnifying gtas.
The word two is repeated three times. In
the counterfeit the word two is similarly
engraved the same number of times, but
in two cases the counterfeiter has tnado
tho letters read owt, but this mistake is
not visible without tho use of a glass. Al
together the counterfeit is fully as danger
ous as represented and tho cntiro circula
tion of tho geuuino may have to be called

II HATTY ('OMRS. In Tionrista, April,
It. 1I, by S. J. Setley, J. P., Mr. Jams
Bentty, of Nebraska, Forest Co., Pa,,
and Miss Lizzie Combs, of Tionesta, VU
DJED.
RIUSK.- On Thursday, April 2d, 1801, nt
llodock p. m., of pneumonia. Carrie
Pearl, daughter of Jeremiah and Mary
lllose, nged 3 years, 7 mos., and 0 days.
The funeral services, conducted by Rev.
C. C. Rnmberger, were held at tho M. E.
Church on Sunday afternoon. Four little
girls dressed in whito acted as pall bearers.
A sermon was preachod, and then the
bodj was curried to and laid to real in
tho Odd Fellows' Cemetery. The large
number of ppoplo present attested full
well the sympathy rdt by all for Mr. and
Mrs. Bloso In their great loss.
It Is a sad, snd thing to do to lay away
In the cold damp grave the form of the
little ono tlmt tilled such a place in tho
home, by the ftro side, and In the hearts
of those who knew and loved It, and es
pecially thoao whom it had learned to call
"papa" and ''mamma." Three or four
years Isn't long, but what a treasure the
child that came Into the home so holpless
grows to be iu that time. No one but a
parent can approclato the fact j no one but
a parent can at ail understand It. And
how much of brightness and of hope goes
out of the homo when tho little one Is car
ried out never to be brought back again,
and how much loneliness and how great
the shadow that comes In, and how sharp
tho pain that tugs away at the heart for
days and days, and bow wearily the feet
go as tho daily round of duties is taken
up and discharged. None but those who
have had such an experience can at all
know how it Is. Things will never bu
again what thoy were before. Time may
heal the wound so that it seems less keen,
but there will always remain a memory
of the light that emuo and went a place
in mind and heart never rilled by any
other, no matter how many or how beau,
tiful the forms that grow up iiround us.
But He who calls himself "Onr Father"
has not left us comfortless. He knows the
depths of human affections. He knows
the weight and the bittorness the death of
our little ones adds to our lives. nd
"His heart is touched with the feeling of
our infirmities." He assures us of His
love for those we have so loved. Ho who
said, "Sutler littlo children to como unto
me," "shall gather the lambs with His
arms, and carry them in His bosom," and
Ho also assures us that "Their angels do
always behold the face of my Fathor
In Heaven."
The death of a littlo child la only llfo
transplanted to unfold in wonderful beau
ty amid inlluonees pnre and lovely alto
gether. And so we turn from the past and
from counting the days that come and go
between us und our sorrow, and look
across tho years, always growing less, to
the future, and anticipate what may bo a
happy gathering together again of earthly
tics now all glorious and beautiful, "to go
out" from them "no more forever."
Llues on the death of our dear little boy,
who died March 24, from effects of scarlet
fever, aged 4 years, 1 month and 15 days.
When we see our precious Jesse,
That we tended with such care,
l?iilntir tnlan rrfim mil- lipn.lfla
i. " i. i;ui m:iiui iiuui la uenpnu.
Round his little grave we linger
Till the setting sun is low,
Feeling all our hopes have perished
With tho flower we cherished bo.
He will sleep, but not forever,
In the lono and silent grave;
Blessod be the Lord that taketh,
Blessed bo tho Lord that gove.
In the bright, eternal city
Death can never, never come I
In His own good time He'll call us
From our rest to Home, Swoet Homo.
