Tbe .following item from the
Flint, Michigan, JDat7y Newt, Feb. 2d,
will interest the many Tionesta friends
of the bride, wbo will join in congrat
ulations and best wishes for a long and
happy life: "The fact has just leaked
out that Herbert Alexander and
Theodora Adams, both of this city,
were recently united in the holy bonds
of matrimony. The young couple are
quite popular in the circle in which
they move, and start out on life's
journey together with the best wishes
of their many friends and acquain
tances." The American Protective Tariff
League has just issued a new campaign
Text Book for 1892. It is entitled
"Ameiicau Tariffs from Plymouth
Rock to McKioley." This little book
of one hundred pages is perhaps tbe
most complete brief presentation of
the benefits of Protection aod Reci

As will be observed by an Ordi-
ance in this issue, cattle are no longer
free comraouers in the Borough of
Tiouesta, the Council having patsed
the sume at its meeting on Saturday
evening last. Tbe ordinance takes
effect April first, thus giving owners of
horned and unhorned stock time to
repare for the change. The enforce
nient of this ordinance may seem like
hardship at first, but after once
th roughly iu vogue we dare say there
will be none who will want to go back
to the old order of things, when cattle
occupied the sidewalks about as much
as pedestrians.
We are in receipt of a beautifully
esigned lithographed invitation to
ttend the 48tb annual commencement
the Western Reserve University,
Clevelaud, Ohio, which takes place
to-day. The many frieods of Cliuton
D. Baker, in this section, will be in
terested to learn that he will graduate
with the class of '92, from the medioal
epartmenl, as a full fledged M. D
This well known institution has turn
ed out some of tho most eminent phy
sicians in our land, and it will surprise
us if Mr. Baker doeB not rank with
this class in a few years. The same
energy and studious determination
which thus rapidly carried him
through his college course, will doubt
less characterize his habits in his future
practice.
We notice by our Pittsburg ex
chances that a charter was receutly
granted at Harrisburg to tho "Forest
Ceutral Railroad," the proposed line
of which is from Tionesta to Kellett-
ville, on Tionesta Creek. A charter,
be it uuderstood, is not a railroad, but
all well regulated railroads have
charters, aud since we have heretofore
on several occasions boomed up tbe
creek railroads that have as often
"gone a glimmering," we don't pro
pose to grow ecstatic over the prospects
just now, yet we hope, whoever this
newly chartered institution is, it has
sufficient of the "stuff" to entitle it
respectful consideration, aud enlist tbe
aid of our capitalists in tho further
ance of its project. In other words,
we hope tho road will be built, and
will guarantee the active aud sub
stantial support of the community
through which it is likely to pans.
Fair and Just.
Tho Marieuville Express, in a spirit
of fairness and justice, makes the
following mention:
"By the request of a large number
of tax payers, we publish, this week,
an article in regard to the petition
against the county buying the toll
bridge across the Allegheny River,
at Tionesta. Several remonstrances
were sent here for the people to sigu
represenliog the bridge as old and
almost worn out. It was afterwards
learned that some of the very men
who got out tbe petition against it,
were viewers on the bridge and pro
nounced it a good one aud cheap at
the price askod for it. It was believed
by many that the bridge was a wooden
structure, aud it was afterwards they
learned that it was an iron bridge and
not as much worn as represented by
tbe paper to which they attached their
signatures. Some of the leading men
of this place have withdrawn their
names and a great many more would
do so if they bad an opportunity."

COURT MINUTES.
The Bridge of the Tionesta llrldfre Co.
Taken at a County Bridge.
At the hour of going to press last
week ffur report of court proceedings
closed with case of S. Raster vs. J, C.
Welsh on trial. Tbe case was decided
by the jury finding a verdict for the
plaintiff in the sum of $1,399 89.
The next case was that of Wilbur J.
White vs. David Miutz. This was a
case in which tbe plaintiff sued the
defendant on a claim for damages for
false imprisonment and malicious
prosecution, placing his claim at
(5,000 damages. Tbe jury awarded
him damages to the amount of $20,
and placed the costs on the defendant.
On Friday afternoon tbe bridge
question came up for nnal acliou.
After hearing objections by counsel
for remonstrants, Mr. Ritcboy, and
arguments by counsel for petitioners,
Mr. Davis, tho court made the follow
ing DKCRKE.
In re Petition of Citizens to tako the
Bridge of the Tiouesta Bridge Co.

Sess., 1891.
And now, Feb. 25, 1892, the report
of the viewers appointed by the Court
having been filed, and the same having
been unanimously approved by the
County Commissioners, aod the Court
and Grand Jury having heard evidence
in support of said report And against
tbe same, and the Grand Jury having
found that said bridge ought to be
declared a county bridge, etc., as
appears by their finding duly filed of
record, and it appearing to the Court
that such bridge ought to be declared
a county bridge, and that tbe same is
necessary for the public accommoda
tion, and that payment of tolls thereon
is an unjust burdeu ou the travelling
public aud the people of the Borough
of Tionesta and the townships near
where said bridge is located, the Court
order, adjudge aod decree, That said
report of viewers be approved, that
the damages fixed by the viewers be
payable to the said Tionesta Bridge
Company, cut of the County Treasury,
(saving all rights of appeal) and that
said bridge shall be taken possession
of by the County Commissioners, and
that from aud after such taking of
possession all tolls thereon shall cease.

In accordance with the foregoing
decree the Board of County Com mis
sinners proceeded to the bridgo on
Fridr.y evening and formally took
possession of the same, and declared
the same free to tbe travelling public.
The Bridge Co. immediately gave
notice of appeal from the award of the
viewers of $14,000, aod the matter of
price will be adjudicated in a jury trial

further that everything in and about

Inoffensive but very industrious man,

penned at bis request, we print with
but few changes :

CRUSHED TO DEATH.
George (Jlassncr Is Instantly Killed By
a Falling- Tree.
This community was shocked to
learn shortly after noon on Saturday
last of the tragic death of George
Glassner by being crushed beneath a
falling tree. He was taking out rail
road ties on a tract of Dingman &
Dale's on Tubbs Run, about four
miles from here, bis companion in the
woods at tbe time being Wm. Shell
house. They had sawed a medium
sized tree to the falling point and re
treated to what seemed a perfectly safe
distance. Instead of falling straight
from tbe stump it split up a distance
of several feet and then the butt shot
back like an arrow in the direction of
the unfortunate victim, who, it seems,
saw his danger and had turned to
run, but was hindered by a small
clump of bushes, when the tree strnck
him between tbe shoulders, crushing
him to the ground and killing him in
etanilv. His companion ran for help
which was near at hand, and the
young man's lifeless body was soon
xtricatcd, aod conveyed to his home.
George was a son of Henry Glassner,
of German Hill. Ho was an energetic,
ndustrious young man, of a quiet,
gentlemanly disposition, and well
iked by all who knew him. lie was
gcd about 23 years, and leaves a wife
aod one child besides a largo circle of
friends to mourn his terribly sudden
death.
Tbe funeral took place on Monday
forenoon, the remains being laid to
rest in Mt. Zion cemetery.
"Green Goods" ig-nln.
The following account of how many
suckers are caught by au old bait, is
from the Blizzard. Few meu in the
country there are, who can read, but
will recognize tbe sleek "way in which
it is done," yet a re telling will not be
amiss to those who may psibly not
be onto tho modus operandi of tbe
thing :
A gentleman who came down from
up the river Friday afternoon, brought
with him a "green goods letter which
he bad received. The gentleman was
too shrewd, aside from his honesty, to
be tempted into such a game, as tbe
newspapers have from time to time
published similar letters and exposed
the trick in every detail. These let
ters are sent to men supposed to be
susceptible to the temptations held out.
An alleged clipping U enclosed with
the letter, taken from a paper which
does not exist. The newspaper article
describes silver certificates made by
New York counterfeiters so perfect as
to pass by experts undetected. The
writer of the letter is dealing in these
perfect and desirable green goods. As
usual he wants a personal meeting
with his customer, the latter to go to
the city. Tbe golden opportunity to
make a quick fortune is blazoned to
the reader. "There is no wrong in
it," says the letter, "Uucle Sam has
millions of our money locked up in the
Treasury, uselessly and unjustly so."
The terms are then stated to be twen
ty five cents on the dollar. Ine cus
tomer is warned not to answer by mail
but to telegraph to Stephen R. Beck
with, Buckhannon, Upshur County,
W. Va., and instructions will be for
warded by letter.
It caunot be said to a certainty that
this invilatiou would have led the
victim into the meshes of tho "panel
game," hut the preliminaries are iden
tical to the famous trick. Tbe victim
is taken to a room where the money
he wauts to buy is counted out to him
and put in a box. The dealer manages
to distract his atteutioo while au ao
complico in an adjoining room deftly
removes the box from tbe table through
a panel io the partition and supplies
its place with a box cf sawdust or
blank paper. Aside from the crimi
nalitv of intentionally going into a
deal cf this kind to defiaud the Gov
ernment, such meu as send out these
letters are always to be suspected of
crookeduess, and the customer is more
likely to receive a box of sawdust or
be made the victim of some other
trick, than to get the cheap "quoer1
money on which he hopes to gain a
dishonest fortune.
