ear.', died on Saturday morning last,
ued about 80 years. She was the
widow of tho late Jas. F. McCalmont,
whose decease occurred several years

Id lady, very much beloved by all
who knew ber, and will be greatly
mused by friends aud neighbors
generally.
Sunt. Kerr will have Iwo good
drawing cards for his iustilute this
year, in the persons of Col. Copcland,
and l'rot. lleadly. the former made
himself solid with Forest county au
diences on the occasion of his former
visit here, while the latter is said to be
ust as good, aud brings a national
reputation as a platform orator with
him. the other attractions promise
to be on a par with these, aud there is
every reason to anticipate a most sue
cessful inslitule this year.
Congratulations and best wishes
to our frieud Jesse Carson, who relo
bratcd Thanksgiving duy in a most
sensible way by taking unto himself a
wife, iu tbe porsou ot Miss Hoy,
daughter of Mr. II. E. Smith. Mr.
Carson owns a fine farm ou the Tylers
burg road, two miles from town, anr
has lately erected very substantial aud
commodious buildings thereon, and
bemg so nicely fixed to enjoy t lie com
panioiiship ol a loving and lovable
helpmate, the wonder has been that he
put oil the blissful nccasiou as long as
be did. The Refi'm.ican joins the
happy couple's many friends in best
wishes for a long and prosperous life.
Speaking of the two uegroes uow
about to be tried in Ivittauning fur
thefts committed there on tbe 5th of
November, mentioned io our lust issue,
the Derrick says a description of the
articles stolen from the residence of E
T. Howes was sent to the sheriff with a
request to forward them to the police
here. Yesterday chief of poMca Fry
reeeieved a letter from Sheriff Fiscus,
of Kittanuing, stating that the arti
cles answered the description perfectly,
but that he would have to retain them
until court convenes next Mouday.
He requested Mr. Howes to go down
and identify the articles and moke an
information against the men. Mr.
Howes and the chief will go ti Kit
tanning for this purpose to-day. Tbe
circumstantial evidence so far obtained
seems to point to the two negroes as
the authors of the burglaries at Oleau,
Salamanca, Tidioute, Hickory, Tiones
ta, as well as in this city.
The Third Medal Coutest.
Tho third Domorost Medal contest which
took p'aee In the Presbyterian Church,
Friday evening, was ono of tho most suo-
cossful yet given.. The class was composed
of eight young girls, who displayed won
derful declamatory powers, although the
oldest did not exceed fifteen years of age.
Great praiso is due Mrs. Seigel, who had
the class in training and to whom these
young girls owe much of their great suc
cess. The Judges, Messrs. Teed, Allan
and Stiles, of West Hickory, after hearing
the speuking, and weighing all the points
in each, final ly decided to award the prize
to No. 0, Miss Mary Joyce. She spoko the
piece entitled, "Prohibition, the hope of
our Country." The exercises were in
terspersed with songs and choruses ren
derod by a band of children of the Loyal
Legion, conducted by Mrs. "'. F. Ritchey,
to whom too much praise cannot be given
These songs were received with rapturous
applause by tlie audience and the marching
of the children was beyond praisd. The
male quartette composed of Messrs,
Ritchey, Clark, Nason and Biggins, was
not the least attraction of the evening,
These contests are given under tho au
spices of the W. C. T. U. of this place, by
thoir committee, Mrs. Diiigmun and Mrs
Hliarpe, who spare no pains to make them
a success, .

An exchaugo truly says that printing,
either for glory or gratitude, may bo a
time-honored custom, but it Is done in
direct opposition to the financial element
of the business. Not excepting the phy
sician or druggist, there is no line of trade
in which so much is asked and nothing
but thanks is paid in return. Tho average
citizen acts as if a newspaper and a print
ing ollice cost but little money, and that
running expenses are insignificant ; that
proprietors should be willing to do free
printing from their most expensive in a
terial and stock for tho glory of having
their Imprint attachod to the work. As a
rule, the publisher and printer is the Hrst
man in tho community selected to furnish
without pay, tho necessary advertising
mutter for every conceivable charity or
enterprise, and if he hints at getting half
price for the work ho is considered a vory
mean citizen. Kueli eases are of daily oc
currence. There seems to be no limit to
the uumbi-r of people who ask for favors
they would not grant if cases were re
versed. The wealthiest ask more than the
humblest citizen. While printers are
generally charitable and enterprising, yet
the custom of taxing thoir business to
swell contributions which the individual
should give is radically wrong.
Rulph Hill tho Hermit.
Tbe Hill Placo away up on Spring Creek,
about H miles above Hallton is often re
ferred to by tho hunters who chase the
game In that fur off spot in the wilderness.
It was a spot well known also many years
ago, for there are men still living who in
their youth paid many a visit to that local
ity to call upon Ralph Hill, the white hair
ed hermit, who lived in a hut on the prem
ises far removed from the haunts of men,
Tradition recites that away bock in the
earlier part of the century this man, Ralph
Hill, who has long since gone to his re.
ward, cut his way through tho wilderness
and located on Hie eastern slops of Spring
Creek, many miles from neighbors, built
liiin a home and cleared up a larin. No
one knows when ho first went there but
lie was found by hunters and tu them he
said he came from Routlieru New York In
the neighborhood of Elmiia, and it has
been assortod that the great governor of
tho Empire State, David B. Hill, Is a rela
tive of the hermit, and It seems plausible,
for both came from the same neighbor
hood. Tho subject of this sketch cleared
up a big farm, the land being In Highland,
Spring ('reck and Millstone townships in
Elk county and Jcnks township In Forest
county. Ho lived all alone, with no com
panions save his trusty dogs. His hut,
too, was small and with tho outside world
he never sought intercourse, and why he
lod such a strnngc, wierd life ho never In
timated to any one. It was somehow
learned, however, that in his youth he
lavished Ms affections upon a companion
of tho fair sex and that slio finally broke
faith with him, cast him off, and he losing
conlldence in humanity sought the wilds
of the forests In which to brood over his
sorrows all alone. Many years ago some
of bis relatives hearing of his whereabouts
camo in to seo him and after much per
suasion got lit tu to go back to his old home
to spend the close of Ills life.
The cause of his hermitage none may
ever fully know, but tho broad auros now
grown up to briars testify to the occupan
cy of Ralph Hill, the Spring Creek her
mit. Elk Democrat.
