the funeral of bis brother, who met
with the drowning accident, and whose
body was recovered. He bad been
bathing in tbe harbor, and although
an expert swimmer, ia supposed to
have been seized with cramps, and tha
exertions of his companion were in
sufficient to drag him ashore before he
was drowned.
Tbe Bovee & Duck well on tbe
Ledebur farm, was finished last Thurs
day, and ia reported dry ; we say re
ported, for it is whispered around that
there is still some mystery about it,
Which the operators will not explain.
Hardison is rigging up on tbe Kaman
farm aud will probably start tbe drill
today. This location ia scarcely a
quarter of a mile in advance of Wol
cott's latest strike, which is still keep
ing up nicely at 25 to 30 barrels.
Mrs. Josephine R. Nichols, who
will lecture before the convention to
be held here next week ia a lady of
National reputation, being the Supt.
of Fairs and Expositions of the World,
as well the Vice President of tbe Na
tional W. C. T. U. She had charge
of tbe temperance department at tbe
Paris Exposition, and will have like
charge at Chicago duritig the World's
Fair. Her great experience and ex
tensive travel, have giveu her the best
opportunity to make her discourse both
iostructive and entertaining.
The boys of the base ball associa
tion have arranged to give a lawn fete

all. Ice cream, cake and other re
freshments will be served in abundance,

terns, &c, if the weather is fair; other
wise the good things will be served
indoors. Tbe proceeds of the enter
tainment will go to the benefit of the
ball association, which bas been at
considerable expei se heretofore in
furuUbiug our citizens with fine
amusement during tbe summer almost
fiee of charge. Drop in and give the
boys your patronage.
Burglars were quite busy in Ma
rienville last Friday uigbt, and must
have worked like beavers while they
were at it. Tbe safe at tbe Acme Ex
tract Works was broken open, but tbe
thieves got notbiug. Chas. Leech's
store was broken into and about $25
worth of clothing, boots, shoes, hats,
Ac, taken. Tbe safe in Mr. Leech's
store was not disturbed. Tbe Machine
Shop safe was gone through but tbe
burglars failed to get anything there.
This safe was not lucked. Tbe hand
car of tho P. & W. Railroad was miss
ing next morning, and it is supposed
the thieves stole it aod went north.
They left not a solitary clue to tbeir
detection, even tbe hand car had not
been heard from up to Saturday eve
ning. A pretty fly set of crackers.
One of the best conducted and
handsomest dailies ia the eastern part
of the State that has come to our no
tice is the West Chester Republican,
edited aod managed by oor fat, band
some aod talented friend Jas. B.
Fisker. On the 15lh iust. tbey turned
out a mammoth sheet of 16 pages,
devoted principally to a review of the
industries of that staid and thriving
city, ia which appear many hand
some illustrations showing to fine ad
vantage the numerous attractions to
be found within her borders. Surely
the publishers have reason to "point
with pride" to the success of tbeir at
tempt to show the outside world what
they and tbeir community are made
of. Aod the people of West Chester
and vicinity are slower than we tbiok
if they don't show a keen appreciation
of the same.
Last Thursday forenoon, as Mr.
and Mrs. J. Park Grove, who bad
beeu out for a pleasure ride, were
coming down the German Hill road,
their horse, a very speedy animal, took
a sudden notion to run away, aud all
of Mr. Grove's strength was of do
avail in trying to get him under con
trol. Tbe animal was soon under full
headway, aud tbe vehicle was dashing
down the steep hill at lightning speed.
After a distance of nearly quarter
of a mile bad been covered aod there
seemed no prospects of getting tbe
horse stopped, Mrs. Grove determined
that ber ooly chance of saving ber
life lay iu jumping from the buggy,
which she did when going at a terriblo
rate of speed. Mr. Grove clung to
tbe reins in the hope of getting the
horse stopped until near the foot of
the hill, when he also sprang from the
buggy and ran to the assistance of bis
wife, whom he found prostrated by
tbe terrible leap. Other assistance
soon came and tbe unfortunate lady
was conveyed to her home, where she
was found to be very severely bruised
but it is hoped .sustained no serious in
juries. Park was also severely bruised,
having beeo dragged some distance
after jumping out,4ut tbe anxiety felt
for bis wife's safety bas diverted bis
thoughts from himself. The escape of
either from instant death is almost
miraculous.
Frank Russell tilled by the Cars.
Frauk Russell, well known to our
towns people, aod a brother of Charles
Russell, of Ibis place, accompanied
tbe excursion to the Franklin re union
on Wednesday last. He did not re
turn on tbe regular excursion train
which left there in the night. Thurs
day morning the body of an unknown
man was found lying beside the Nyp
ano track near Suar Creek station.
The body was brought to Franklio'
where an inquest was held, and the
discovery made that the unfortunate
man was Frank Russell. The facts
elicited at the inquest were to tbe af
fect that Russell had boarded the
wrong train and did not discover his
mistake until be had reached the sta
tion above indicated, where he got off
and was walking back toward Frank
lin. The appearances indicated that
be had lain down beside the track
with his head so near passing train
that the cow-catcher struck him on the
back of the head killing him instantly.
No other bruises were found on bis
body.
TLere is another theory as to the
manner in which Frank was killed.
It is believed, while walking down the
track, be was overtaken by a freight
train, and having stepped fdTthe track
to allow it to pass, was struck by a
projecting lumber binder that bad be
come loosened and swung out. Tbe
fact that the only bruise about the
body was on tbe back of the head, and
that not very severe, gives plausibility
to ibis theory which may be tbe correct
one. Still another idea with some is
that be may hare met with foul play,
there being no money found on his
person, whereas he is known to have
exhibited considerable of it during the
day.
His brother here was telegraphed
aud went on. The body was prepared
for burial, and on Friday was interred
in tbe cemetery at Fraoklin.
Frank, familiarly called "Fode,"
was a heavy built man, aged about 36
years. He bad established aod built up
nice trade in the barber line at Tid
ioute, where he bad a wife, and daugh
a ter, aged about 8 years. He was a
genial, pleasant mannered man, and
made friends rapidly by his quiet dis
position and gentlemanly treatment of
customers and strangers.
An Incendiary Fire.
On last Thursday night tbe dwelling
house of James Stroup was loMly de
stroyed by fire. Tbe bouse is or was
located on bis farm, which lies on top
of the hill overlooking Tubbs Ruo,
and about half a milo to tbe left of tbe
German Hill road, beyond the Proper
farm. Just across a deep ravine from
James' place lives bis brother, A. L.
Stroup, Shortly after miduight bis
wife awoke bira and called bis atten
tion to a bright light which shone
through their chamber window. On
investigation he discovered bis broth
er's bouse on fire, and burried to the
scene. When he arrived the whole
ioside was ablaze, tbe side walls having
as yet bardly been burned through.
Not a person was io sight, and he
could do oothiog but watch it burn.
Tbe bouse, which was comparatively
a new ooe, bad not been occupied for
some time, and contained no furniture
whatever. There was no thunder
storm during the night, to which the
cause of the fire could be attributed,
aud so it is. evidently a plain case of
incendiarism. Mr. Stroup is not
aware that be has an enemy so bitter
that be would perpetrate such a des
perate outrage, and is therefore at a
loss for aoy clue. The house was in
sured for $450, but cost Mr. Stroup to
build betweeu $700 and $800.
As a general rule the perpetrator of
such a crime fails to thoroughly river
up bis tracks, aod it is hoped i. at
some discovery will be made that will
briog tbe guilty to trial.
Last of the Season.
Tbe last excursion under the aus
pices of tbe W. N. Y. & P. R. R., to
the Thousand Islauds will take place
on Friday, August 28. The train
leaves Tionesta station at 8:40 a. m.,
and will reach its destination at 7:00
a. m., Saturday ; rates for tbe rouud
trip $5.50, aud tickets good for ten
days. Tbe train will be provided
with Bleeping cars for the night ruo,
so that all can be provided with finest
accommodations aud perfect comfort.
Remember the date.
Convention of the W. C. T. U.
This, the 5tb annual convention of
tbe fairest of Forest county's sisters,
mothers and daughters, will be beld
in the Presbyterian Church, Tionesta,
begioniog Wednesday, Sept. 2d, at 2
P. M , and closing the following day
with a session at 1:30 P. M. As the
object of their union grows more pop
ular, their ranks are almost uncon
sciously swelling to great proportions,
and the work being pushed forward
with ao apparent certainty of early
and complete victory. The sacrifices
our sisters have made in their efforts
to develop a higher humanity are al
ready bearing fruit, and we point with
pleasure to tbe systematic education of
our youth, the curtailment of the sale
of tobacco and drugged cigarettes to
tbe young, and tbe perfection of man
aod womanhood by liviog a pure life.
With these pleasaut reminiscences be
fore us we look forward with pleasure
to tbe coming convention as a time
when something new, something in
ter?ing and something elevating will
be told, and to add Is '.he attractions
tbe ladies bave secured at considerable
expense, tbe services of Mrs. Josephine
R. Nichols, of Indianapolis, Iod., of
whom tbe press are loud in applause,
to address the people who may be so
furtunate to bear her on Wednesday
evening, and also to take part in the
other sessions of the convention. There
will be no admission fee. Come early.
See detailed programs.
The Franklin Re-Union.
The eight annual re union of the
Northwestern Association is now a
thing of the past, and as the smoke of
that great event baa disappeared it
becomes us to take a glimpse of the
field, bury our dead, care for tbe
wounded, and praise the gallant and
heroic acts of those who so nobly con
tributed their talents, money and pres
ence, to make the 19th of August,
1891, a festal day to the "boys in
blue." Other cities, whose hospitality
we have shared in the past, have not
been forgotten by the G. A. R. boys,
aod we believe our thanks tendered
them as can only be tendered by tbe
Grand Army boys, have been accepted
by them. Hence, we only have now
to speak of our reception at the hands
of tbe patriotio people of Franklio.
Durlog tbe past history of our lives
our feet have often contributed to
clalteriog noise along her busy streets,
but we freely coufess at this day, we
never knew Franklin until very re
cently. As our long train, laden with
its immense cargo of boys in blue)
patriotic ladies, citizens and happy
children, we coo fees we doubted the
propriety of our visit to that place, in
such great nambers; not that we
doubted the' patriotism of Frankliu ;
we were ton well versed in her past
history for that ; but what would, what
could she hope to do with the mighty
hosts that were soon to tread along
her busy streets? Soou the shrill wbis
tie of the engine told us we were at
Franklin. Every available spot of
ground was so overrun with the mul
titude as to make it almost impossible
for tbe boys to form io line on steppiog
fiom the platform of tho cars; the
only thing for us to do was to start
for tbe city aud form line as we moved
forward. The bands at the head of
the different organizations filled the
very air aud soul with music, and as
we passed over the iron structure that
spans French creek her great iron bars
trembled; and she swung to and fro
in perfect time to the music and tramp
of tbe passing host.
As we baited in front of General
Headquarters, on Liberty street, we
were greeted by one of the grandest
scenes our eyes bave lookod upon since
away back to the Grand Review in
Washington, May 26th and 27th, 1865.
The city of Franklin is bofore us iu
all its beauty and patriotism; the dec
orations along tbe streets was simply
immense, grand, even brilliant, and
amid the patriotic welcome by ber
citizens on every hand, we felt that it
was good for us to bo there. Our
dinner, we know not how it could bave
been bettered; there was enough aod
to spare. Our parade of more than
two miles ia length pawed over the
principal streets of the oity amid
showers of greetings from the viewing
multitude on every band; our old
boys, animated by the grand welcome,
put the left foot forward, keeping time
to tbe drum, made the best marching
possible; iu fact, to better this march
iog, we call up tbe sixties. Thus, for
two hours, we marched, carried for
ward by tbe enthusiasm prevailing on
every hand. Every G. A. R. comrade
feels glad for bis visit to Frauklio.
Every heart within our Association
does, and will ever bear testimooy to
the noble, patriotio people of that city.
Boys, when our march of life is ended,
our camp-fires bave died nut and we
have been mustered oot of service, the
history of our organization filled up,
no brighter page will be found in that
history, than that which refers to our
rd-uuiou at Frauklin, Aug. 1 9 1 h , 191.

SETVST NOTES.
Tho Bcliool board of Corry ia consider
ing the plan adopting a school Having
bank. It works very nuucoHnfully in tho
Warren schools.
According to an ingenious) Fronch sa
vant, persona who laugh with the sound of
"A" in "fathor" aro frank and loyal, fond
of noise and movement, and frequently of
a versatilo and changeable character.
Those who laugh with the sound of "A"
In "ape" are phlegmatic, with a turn tow
ard melancholia. The laugh in "E" is
that of child ron, and of adults who are
simple, plaint, timid and Irresolute. The
laugh in "O" aignillcs generosity and ro
bust boldness. "Ixiok out," says the
Fronch observer, "for those who laugh io
'U, becauso they aro misanthropes."
