The Crawford county grand ju
r ignored the bill charging Samuel
Ridgway, tbe proprietor of the sani
tarium at Hydotown, with maoslaug-
ter. Tbis is the case growing out of
tbe death of Miss Austa Bidwell in
the unfortunate fire io Mr. Ridgway's
laboratory a few months ago. The
result gives general satisfaction to
the people acquainted with the facts.
Yesterday morning was another
hummer for cold, mercury dropping
from 10 to 15 degrees below zero.
But tbis is not what it may be yet.
On the 17th of March, 1885, the
thermooieier indicated 14 below zero,
and three days later, March 20th,
or first day of spriog, it was 22 below,
and in one ot two favored localities
io tbis county it went down to 26
degrees below zero. Tbe ice on the
river was from ooe to two feet thick,
and still a-making. And that was a
full month later than this date.
Tbe Pennsylvania World's Fair
Executive Committee has decided to
dedicate tbe Slate building at Chica
go on Saturday, April 29. Execu
tive Commissioner Farquhar will
present the building, and it will be
formally received by Gov. Pattisoo.
Tbe Governor will bold a reception
in tbe edifice after tbe ceremonies.
Up to present writing no invitation
to atleud these interesting ceremonies
has reached the office, and whether
or not the affair will come off anyway
we really can t tell.
Here is another chance for those
Tidiouters who are always bitiog at
any scheme from makiog counterfeit
money to buying twenty-five cent
town lots in Floaida, to secure anoth
er chapter on "experience." An ex
change says that "a fellow is now
ttaveling through tbe country trying
to swindle parties with a contract for
wire fences. He offers to give enough
wire to fence a 10-acre field if tbe
party will sigu a cootract to take tbe
Bgency for tbe wire. The cootract
is where the swindle comes in, for if
read closely it turns out to be a
promissory note for $450 after a few
words are erased with oxalic acid."

Scarcely any one, not even tbe
oldest inhabitant, will lay claim to
ever having witnessed so terrifio a
storm in tbis section as tbat which
swooped down upon us shortly after
five o clock last Sabbatb evening.
Snow had been falling a greater por
tion of tbe day, but at tbe bour in
dicated, there came a regular whirl
wind, and the blinding, swirling,
drifting snow darkened tbe air, mak-
in it impossible to distinguish any
object teu feet a way. Tbis lasted
perhaps twenty minutes, when tbe
"clouds rolled by," and at seven
o'clock the sky was clear and stars
were shining with unusual brilliancy.
Mark it dowo as tbe worst we've ever
bad in tbis county.
Tbe bill introduced io the Leg
islature by Seoator I-ogao, of Craw
ford county, changing tbe manner of
distributing tbe $5,000,000, achool
fund, which makes tbe basis of tbe
fund's distribution the number of
schools in the State instead of the
number of taxables in a district, will,
it is believed, be fought fiercely by
tbe city members. The measure
would knock off about $65,000 of
Allegheny county's share and cut
down Philadelphia's portion over
$470,000. The counties outside will
be largely benefitted by the bill.
What Forest oounty's additional
share would be we have not ascertain
ed, but on the principle that it would
be something we are throughly in fa
vor of tbe new plan.
There is quite an interesting case
before the Warren court, aod one
that will attract considerable atten
tion from the fact tbat on the final
decision rests a law point of pretty
general importance to people living
within limits of natural gas belts.
It is in tbe case of W. W. Hague et
al. vs. L. R. Freeman et al. Tbe
plaDiiffs seek to restrain the defend
ants from allowing gas to escape from
a well on tbe defendants property.
Tbe defendants some time ago drilled
a well close to properly of the plan
tiffs, in Limestone township, aud
struck gas io large quantities. For
some reason, the defendants allowed
tbe gas to escape. Tbe well was
closed by tbe plantifTs, but at once
reopened by defendants. An injunc
tion was then served to compel the i
closing of the well, and the argumeot
upoo tbe bill io equ'ty is attracting
considerable attention in legal circles.
The attentiou of baseball play

Death of Henry Klser.
Henry Kiser was born In Hanover,
Germany, Feb. 23, 1835, and died at
his residence, German Hill, Forest
couoty, Pa., Fefc. 21, 1803, and there
fore would have been 8 years of age
had be lived till to-morrow.
In 1846 be came to America with
his mother aod step-father, when but
ten years of age. For a number of
years his parents resided in Pittsburg,
afterward joining the settlers who
had already established themselves io
this neighborhood. Io 1857 he was
joioed iu mariage with Martha,
daughter of Nicholas aod Anna
Malbe, and to tbem ten children were
born, nine of whom, three sons aod
six daughters, with the wife, survive
him. The children are Edward, Mrs.
Kate PutTenberger, Mrs. Msry
Youtigk, Mrs. Anna Smith, Eva, Em
ma, Harvey, Florence, and Ray.
Upward of a year ago Mr. Kiser
suffered a severe attack of grip, which
left him with heart trouble, and
while he endeavored to place himself
under the treatment of some of the
best medical skill, he was told that
bis case was hopeless. During the
past four or five months he was con
fined to bis room, and though at
times bis sufferings were very great,
he bore them without murmuring,
and wbeo the eod came he was per
fectly resigned to go, and died with
all the hope and fortitude of a true
Christain. He was from boyhood a
consistent member of the Lutheran
church.
In tbe death of Henry Kiser the
community has sustained the loss of
oue of its very best citizens in all re
spects. By nature he was tbe kind
est and best hearted of men. None
knew him but to respect aod admire
bim as a man of Integrity, honesty
and industry, while his genial and
whole-souled manuer made him 'spec
ially popular with all his acquaint
ances, who, next to his family and
immediate relatives, will miss and
mourn him as tbey would none other.
To the bereaved wife aod childreo
tbe sympathy of a whole community
goes out in heartfelt tenderness in tbe
loss of an affectionate husband and
kind and iodulgeot father.
Funeral services will be conducted
at the late residence of tbe deceased
at 1:00 o'clock to-moreow, Thursday,
and at tbe Germau Hill church at
2:00 o'clock p. m.

There is a demand in some quarters in
this State for tbe repeal of the oleo
margarine law. It is argued that there is
no reason why It should not be sold. If
sold by its right name, Just the same as
lard, cheese or any other article of mer
chandise. It was thought a year or two
since that the manufacture of oleo kept
down the price of buttor, but as demon
strated this winter it evidently does not
effect the price of the latter article. Good
butter will always find a place in the
market, at such prices as tbe supply reg
ulates. On the other baud, oleo is prefer

It would probably be ditllcult to tell
why Clearfield county was named "Clear
field." When it was organized in 1804,
out of parts of Lycoming and Northum
berland counties, it was almost an un
broken forest, covered with one of the
noblest stretches of pine woods to be
found in the State. The cleared fields in
it were few and far between. They were
as scarce as tbe rookt, at Mr Copperfield's
rookery. But In eighty-nine years the
country has succeeded in adapting itself
to its name. The magnificent pine trees
have nearly all beeu cut down. Late
Clearfield papers tell of four rafts of pine,
some of the sticks 80 to 00 feet long, that
are ready to be sent down the river as
something extraordinary. The sturdy
raftsman who used to find a spring Job
in piloting fine spurs down the river to
serve as masts for Baltimore clippers will
soon find their occupation gone. Phila

Despite all the talk about the exhaus
tion of the country's timbor supply at the
present prodigious rate of forest destruc
tion, expert estimate of the quantity of
lumber still iu standing trees show that
we are yet a great distance from a short
age. It appears that Washington alone
has 410,000,000,000 foet of standing timber
and neighboring States west of the Rock
ies 433,000,000,000 feet, making a total suf
tiicieut, a late writer expresses it, to gird
le the earth with a belt of dense forest a
mile wide three limes round, with au ad
ditional lap from Puget Sound to the At
lantic. In addition there is the supply of
the Southern and Eastern States, aggre
gating 353,000,000,000 feet. When thee
sources of supply give out we can draw
ou the 67,000,000,000 feet, the minimum
quantity estimated to be available In
Alaska. Nor ueed we stop hero, liefore
our present home supply Is exhausted
Canada will be part of the Union, and we
cau begin on the 1,275,000,000,000 feet
standing untouched ou the 85,000,000 acres
