The Christmas-tide of 1892 was one ot the pleasantest in the history four section, due largely, uo duubt, to the really fine weather which pre vailed during the greater portion ot the time. Nothing is so conductive to an enjoyable Christmas as a crisp air and a ground covered with snow .-inch conditions seem rare of late years, and when they are present they lend a much more cheerful aspect to the holiday season. Our young friend James Cow grove was over from Barnett town ship during ihe holidays on a verv unporiaut, as well as a very pleasant errand, as will be seen hy reference tn our "marriage corner" this week James is one of Barnett's sleadest and must popular young men, aud thu Republican jius his many friends iu wishing him aud bis fair bride u ru.ist prosperous aud happy journey through life. George Weaut, who has been keeping bachelor's quarters long enough to satisfy him that it isu'i just the thing, turned over a good new leaf, aud reswlved to begin lt New Year aright. Hence it is that he is now domiciled at his home, jusi outside the bniuugh limits, wnh a charming wife to share in bis j j e aud sympathize iu his sorrows should he be thus overtaken.' The bride was Miss Maitie Redfield, a former pnpu lar teacher of this county, aud favor biy known lo many of our reader Good luck lo them, and "may I hey live long and prosper," is the wish oi all their fiiends, ourself included. !

On the 22d ult Maxwell White, sou of Judge White, of Barnett town ship, inut with a painful aud seriour mishap. While driving down tin hill from Clariugton, the horse i.-egan kicking, and before the occupaui could get out of reach he received a most vicious blow upon the chin, plittiiig the hone, and injuring ihe jiwbnne severely. At last accounts he young man, who is aged about 19 yeais, was doing very well consider ing the nature of his inj jries, and his physiciau thought he would nut he permanently injured. Ou the same evening, another nccurrence,8trangel (incident wiih the first, happened to .hn B Simpson, of Scotch Hill, six r eight miles from the scene of the friner. Mr. Simpmu was also se verely kicked by a horse, iu alim-si identically I he same in a liner, and in Hiding injuries very similar to Mi White's. IheUoiiuty Commissioners met nn Mi tiday and made the annual ap pointments for the ensuing year, re taining Mr Brennan as Clerk, and electing Samuel Camhell, Janitor, vice Louis Nuueman, who has acted in that capacity for the past year The only other change in officials at the Court House is in the Treasurer's office, Jss. B Ilagerty turning over the combination to Qointoin Jamie son, who filed his bond, a very ex cellent oue, by the way, on Fridav last. Mr. Haggerty has filled this important place with entire satisfac lion to the public, his administration of the i ffice being at once a credit to himself and the county, and he steps down and out leaving a good record behind. We feel confident Mr. Jam ieson's conduct of the affairs of thai fiice will give perfect satisfaction. and that the people will find in him an official with whom it will bo a pleasure to transact business. To both the incoming and retiring thi Republican's best New Year's wish es are extended. The Late J. N. Dingman. Jasper H. Dingman was born In Fifth Town", Prince Edward county, Canada, April 17, 1842, and died in Tionesta, Pa., Dec. 24, 181)2. The people have had another lesson of the uncertainty of life and tho certainty of death, and have beon moved to feelings of docp sorrow and regret. One of our best and most respected citizens has gone to that "bourne from whence no traveler re turns." Mr. Dingman moved to Titus villo, Pa., in 1865, where be engaged in the mercantile business till 1874, when he located in Forest county and engaged in the stave and lumber business with Mr. J. II. Derlcksnn until 1888. when the firm was mutually dissolved. (Since (lien he has been in partnership with Mr. A. II. Dale iu the lumber business. He was al ways very attentive to hia work, a man ol tlno business capacity, and hence success ful. He was an active member of the M. E. Church, leader of tho choir. Knncrli ioo. , ( dent of the Sabbath school, an energetic worker for the temperance causo. Presi dent of the Epworth League, a member of the R. T, of T., and I. O. O. F. All these societies will sadly mourn tho .loss they have sustained. Ho was conscien tious In all this work, and labor for the Great Master was his chief end. As a worker in Ihe Sabbath School ho had few equals, and bis school has sustained an irreparable loss. The last work of his life was for the Sabbath School, in pro- I arinz for the Crilelirnlirm nf Phriulmu. On the eve of his death he began and part ly completed a large transparent star, on which the word "Jesus." in larn-e letters was written. This star, although unfin ished, t-bows his Inst thoughts were ot Jesus, the star of his hone, and bis lnui act was an effort to place that grent light oeinre nis school and point the scholar to the Savior. M r. Dingnian's health, until about three ears ago, when hp suffered a severe, at lack of sickness, bud been good. He rall ied trom this illness and keot in actlvt business until Tuesday preceding his leatu, wnen lie was lorced to keep to his room. No immediate danger was nnure- hended until Friday evening, when bis physicians told him ho could live but a diorttime. He calmly received the in formation, and was perfectly willing to go into the hands of his Ood. Shortly I cfor. death he talked with his family, gave bis boys good ad vico how to live and meet lilni beyond, where parting is no more. Among his last words were, "Tell my fi lends all to meet me In Heaven." The interment took place in Riverside Cemetery, on the morning of Dec. 27ih, after which the friends returned to the M. E. Church, where appropriate services were ci-nducled by Rev. Rankin, assisted by Revs. Rumberger, Small and Hillard. The floral tributes, the last tokens of respect of the societies of which tho do- ceased was a member, were varied, elah. orate and most bea 'tiful. 1 he Eoworth League placod upon the casket the em blems of its society a Grecian cross, in pink roses and ferns, with the letters "E. L." gracefully wrought of Immortelles iviiiit in relief nn the crosH. Tl.u l...,i,.H- lully illustrated how patiently the depart ed had borne the cross of life, always Keeping the cross of Christ above all others. The tribute of the Sabbath School, was a column ef white roses, carnations and ferns, with loiters "M. E. 8. S." iu blue immortelles on its base. This silent voice snoke volumes. Ha niu lh ui column or support of the Sabbath School. Also, the column is broken! who can till his placo in tho Hchool T The blue immortelles everlasting is a beautiful cymhnl of the immortal lifo beyond the btuo veil to which he for 12 years pointed the school. The I. O. O. F. soul a larire wreath of roses, ferns, Ac, with tho three linksand letters "I. O. O. F." mudeof immortelles. This is emblematical of the nura rrincl. . - pies of brotherly love taught in thoonler. l uo token ol the Itoyal Templars was a wreath of roses, nvcianths. carna tions, etc., with the letters '!(, T. of T." in immortelles. The W. C. T. U., of which he was an honorary member, irave a large bouquet of white roses tied with a niagnuiceni wnite ribbon, the emblem of the society and a cymbol of purity. One oi tne great pleasures ot the deceased was worg for the cause of tonnicrance. He never failed to speak a good word or put his shoulder lo the wheel when opportu nity offered. These flowers speak more than the pen. They soon will witherand die, but their recollections will never lade, bo with lite it is short and soon passes, but the that men do lives ufler thm as an oasis to brighton the desert of life.

Reasons for teaching the DUDil to repeat tho loiter t In our alphabet we find no double letters. Another knnttv question "if an artery is cut and the ends tied, what becomes of the blood?" was also very generally discussed. Prof. Thomas answered : An artery is connec ted, as it were, with itself, and when an accident happens to the mam channel the blood finds accommoda tion Ibroueb the "side channels." which, iu coHrse of time, become en larged.
