excitement aod every parent should

Lidteo to this from up ou the
mountain at Kane, clipped from the
Leader of last week ; it's enough to
set the cold chills to dancing up and
down one's spinal column: "The
cheerful sound of sleigh-bells was
beard yesterday morning for the first
time this season, and the first cutters
made their appearauce, although the
sleighing was not of the beet."
A flood in the creek and a

lower market very nicely. Among
the rafts were a couple composed of
"tank stufT;" that is, oil tanks which
had done service for the North IV ud
Co. oo the headwaters of the creek,
and had been knocked down and were
taking this means of cheap and con
venient transportation to the McDon
ald field, there to be reset and enter
into active services again.

Two colored men were recently
arrested in Harrisburg on suspicion of
being engaged in some burglaries, and
when searched had in their possession
considerable jewelry, among which
was some answering the description of
that stolen in Kitlanning on the 5ih
ot JNov. I he necessary papers were
made out and the two men brought to
Kitlanning on last Friday, where they
now await trial. Among the articles
unidentified in the sheriff's hands, says
the Derrick; is a gold watch and a
email diamond ring, answering the
desciiption of the articles stolen on
the south side, on the night of Novem
ber 3. The men are supposed to have
been the authors of the robberies at
Tidioule, Tionesta and other points up
the river, as well as here, aod as the
robbery in Kitlanning occurred four
or five days later than those in this
vicinity, the theory looks plausible.

HON. ANDREW COOK PASSES AWAY.
Hon. Andiew Cook, born Jan. 14, 1824,
died Nov. 18, 1801.
In thin death, one of the truest and best
jnnn ol this part of the Stale has been tiik
eu from us. Hundreds of people noar the
hay te of Judge Cook, in Forest, Jed'erson,
Clatlon nnd adjoining counties, and among
his inrgn circle of friends will, in his death,
sustain a personal loss. He was one of 17
children of John Cook, deceased, who
came frotn East of the Allegheny moun
tains, and first settlod In what is now
Beaver township, Clarion county. About
the year 1820 ho entered a tract of land at
Cooksburg. At once he began to clear up
the unbroken forest. The nearest settle
ment to him being Ave milos, now Scotch
II ill.
In the year 1828, having some land clear
ed and in wheat, and a house or shanty
built, ho moved his family into It, having
to follow a trail or path and make his own
road ahead of him, through the dense for
est of pine and hemlock. He then built a
saw-mill at mouth of Tom's Run and be
gan the lumber and boat business. Float
ing his lumbar and boats to market, down
the Clarion and Allegheny rivers, often re
turning In a canoe, with grocorlcs
and npcessarlos for his family. He was
twice mnrried, first to Sussnna Ilelpman,
to whom he had nine children, of whom
the Judge was one. His first -.-ifodiedin
1830. He afterwards married Miss Catha
rine Rittor. This union gave him eight
children. He died in 1858, being about 70
years of ago. His last wife died in 1872.
They were buried in the Cooksburg ceme
tery, which was John Cook's own estab
lished burying ground. Ills education
was very limited. But be was a man of
great Industry, perseverence, and hard
work, for hard work it required, to raise
and support a large family in the midst of
a dense forest.
Hon. Andrew Cook was about 4 years
old when his father took him to whero he
lived, made his fortune, and died. Ho
was roared in the midst of tho tall prime
val pines and hemlocks, breathed the pure
air of mountain and valley and grew to be
a giant in strength, being 6 feet 4 Inches,
and weighing 250 to 275 lbs. He was not
only a giant in strength, but also had
giant intellect, oiiginal in thought and
action, and his success in life is the best
proof of his judgment and ability. Thoro
woro no school privileges when he was a
boy, like our boys here, his nearest school
being at Scotch Hill, 5 miles away, and
then tho Agnew school, across the river
from thoir home, 3 miles. Tho principal
part of tho Judge's early education was
gained from study at night, by the light of
a pitch pine knot, after a hard day's labor.
He was a close student all his life; read
many good books and periodicals, always
read the weekly aud daily papers, when
he could got them, and kept well posted
in the politics and business of the country.
He was cautious and a close observer, and
his advice, especially iu business, was
considered tho best obtainable. The most
he ever went to school was after being
married and keeping house, when Copt.
Phipps tuught a small school in the cud
of tho houso in which the Judge lived ; at
that time they had one or two children,
but so anxious were they to learn they
both went to school.
From early boyhood tho J udgo took a
great interest in and assisted his father in
his lumber business. When about 20
years of ago lie aud his two brothers, Jerry
and Philip, began tlio lumber and boat
business for themselves. Soon after Jerry
got married and Philip and Andrew car
ried on the business. Iu 1848 Androw
bought his brother out and continued the
business himself. In 184!) he married Re
becca Ann, daughter of John and Sarah
Mays. There never lived a husband and
wife more devoted to each other. The in
terest of one was always tlio interest of the
other. Forty-two years of married life
has been 42 years of perfect harmony be
tween thorn. They have had 8 children.
Two died when young. Six J. W., A.
W., Jacob and Burt, Ida M., widow of tho
lute S. W. Calvin, and Miss Hattio, are
yet living. Tho chief object of the parents
was always the welfare of the children.
The children's greatest happiness was la
making their parents happy. The father
is gone, but the mother yet lives to aid and
comfort her children, whose greatest joy
will be to make tlio remainder of thoir
mother's life happiness and peace.
Soon after the Judge began business for
himself he began accumulating property
by purchasing large tracts of timber lands,
adjoining, and also the homestead and the
greater part of tho land originally pur
chased by his father. He was careful in
management, gave close attention to his
business, and ny his own industrv, per
cvcrenco aud pluck, lias accumulated a
large fortune iu lands and other propel ty.
At his death he owned between 5 and 6
thousand acres of the best timber land in
Forest and Clarion counties, known as
the Cooksburg property, ou which is
erected three saw mills, ono flouring mill,
one planing mill, good bout scaffold, sev
eral dwelling houses and a store. In fuct
it is the best and most valuable lumber
property, taken as a whole, in this part of
the State. Ho also owned the greater part
of a huge planing mill aud other property
in East Brady; was the Provident and
principal stockholder in the Kat Brady
Bridge Co. He also had a large lumber
yard and other business interests in Pitts
burg. Also had a large interest iu timber
lands in Oregon. Besides these interests
he was one of the founders, stockholders
and directors of the Second Nationul
Bank of Clarion, of which bank he was.
President at his death, and had been for
about 4. years, jn the banking, as well as
in all his other business ho showed more
than ordinary skill and management. His
good Judgment, strict Integrity, honest
dealings, has not only given him a name
and character worthy of imitation, but
also a largo amount of this world's goods.
He was modest and unassuming; kind
generous to the poor, of whom miiny can
testify to his help in times of need, yet
these acts of charity wero scarcely ever
known lo any except tho ono ho helped.
Publicity in such things was alwavs sup
pressed by him. He lias been tho em
ployer of a great many inen, all of .whom
can testify to his kindness to them. Al
though he required each hand to perform
his work yet he never exacted more thun
tiie simple performance of duty, and all
w ho ever worked for him will testily that
his word was as good as his bond.
lie took an active part in tho organiza
tion of Forest county, und was one of the
first County CominisNiouers. He has held
many county and township ollicers; was
elected Associate Judge iu 170 andsurved
5 yearg. All his ollh-ial acts were gov
erned by sound judgment, equity aud
justness, lie took a great interest in all
public questions. In politics he was a
Republican.
The Judge generally had the best of
health. Never had any sickness except
a very severe attack of typhoid lever
when SSyeuruof age, but his stroug con
stitution brought him through. From
that lime until lost February his health
was good. Iu Feb. he was attacked by la
grippe from which he never recovered. It
alleclod his stomach, and finally caused
catarrh. His physician, Dr. Joseph N.
Dixon of Pittsburg, thought a more con
genial climate would bo honoflclal and ad
vised mm to spend the winter in the south.
About two months ago ho. in company
wilh Mrs. Cook, Hiiltieand Wayne, start
ed south intending to spend the winter in
Georgia. They stopped a few days In Pitts
burg ami Washington, and when they
reached Old Point Com fort ( Fortress Mon
roe) tho Judge was tired and they slopped
to rest. Dr. Dixon was summoned and
they found that malarial fever had net in.
The Dr. remained with him giving him
all care that medical skill could afford.
Mrs. Cook, H.ittie and Wayne gave him
the best of nursing, but skill and good
nursing could not avail. His time had
come, and from tho complication of dis
ensos his great constitution gave way and
on the morning of Nov. 1H, imn, he'calm
ly and peacefully brenthed his last. His
work was done, his life ended, his great
good hoart ceased to beat and he was dead.
ino Douy was carefully embalmed, and
placed in a rollod-steei air-tight casket,
slier which it was brought to his home at
Cooksburg, for interment The funeral
took place on Nov. 23. Religious services
were conducted by Rev. Andrews, a Uni
versalist minister from Pittsburg, w ho ac
companied tho remains from that place.
un snnuay nigni Doiore the hurial a
largo number of the Judge's intimate
Iriends had gathered to pav thoir last re
spects to him, The large house was full
to overflowing. Rev. Andrews preached
a learned discourso on the subject of
payer. His discourse was able and argu
mentative, and was liijtenod to with pro
found interest.
The Judge in early lifo became convinc
ed there was ono God, a Supreme Power,
who ruled and governed all, and that all
persons and things were ubjort to that
power. Ho accepted the doctrine of tlio
Universalist Church as being nearest in
harmony with his cunvictions. He lived
and died In the belief that God required
us all to do right and obey the golden rule,
and that He had prepared a better home
for all who love Ilim and keep His com
mandmonts. A short time before his
death, when asked by hU family if ho
thought ho was going to a better home,
his answer was, "I think I am."
It was his desire tiiat his remains be
placed in a vault. In the lid of the casket
was a largo silver plate on which was en
graved
At Rkst.
Andrew Cook,
Born, Jan. 14, 1824.
Diod, Nov. 18, 18(U.
At tho head of the casket lay a pillow of
roses ana cnoice nowors, in wnicli were
imbedded "At Rest" in lottors of blue.
The pillow rested against a largo wreath
of smilax, oses, chrysanthemums and
coronations placed upon palm leaves. A
sheaf of wheat, on which lay a Bick'.o
maae ot smilax and uowers asuhnvo, rest-
"i on tne toot oi tno casxet. This was a
fitting emblem of a ripened lifo ready for
the Sicklo of Death.
The pall bearers were the four sons, and
four brothers of the deceased. The casket
with the remain was taken to the Cooks
burg cemetery, placed in another air-tight
jiino box, encli sed in a water proof wooden
1kx, and the whole laid in a tomporary
vault, there to remain unti'. a permanent
vault can be made for its final resting
place, which will be in the same cemetery
according to the Judge's wishes. Not
withstanding the inclemency of tho
weather aud the flood in tho river, the
number attending the funeral was tho
largetit ever in the vicinity. Over 100 rigs
and 500 people were pre-eut, and bad the
weather been favorable the number would
haie been doubled.
Thus end) the life of a loved and useful
citiz in, one who will be sadly missod, not
only by his familj, but by ail his numer
ous friends. There are few men so widely
known and universally respected and
loved. A self-mado-man and a success in
life. His place will never be filled. His
business will be continued by tho family,
probably with but few changes.

roses, and pieces of leather, aud a bill from

Fred. Young, a young man of Pine
township, Crawford county, aged about
eighteen years, hits for several yoars been
troubled with tits, and has been much of
the time under the doctor's care. The
doctor finally gave tho young man some
worm medicino, and a few hours after
taking the medicine, he emitted a dead
snake nearly a foot long. The young man
remembers when a small boy he drank
from a brook and that ho felt something
queer going down his throat.
A writer who claims to know what he is
talking about says that salt is the best und
cheapest preservative that ran bo found
for posts. Tills he buses on his own ex
perieuce as follows : Thirty-four years ago
wo set four oak hitching posts three und a
half feet duep in tho earth, having flr.sl
bored an Inch holo in the sumo about three
inches above and another of like si.e
about four Inches below tho earth's sur
face Tho holes were partly iillod with
salt, and then slopped with a dry ouk
plug. The posts remain to-day sound and
strong. Had the salt not been used tho
posts would have decayed years ago. Salt
certainly has many useful qualities.
