There is joy in the lumber woods
to-day, for nothing in nature could be
more welcome than the eight or ten
inches of snew which covers the
ground. With a fairly "zeroio" at
mosphere for the neit three weeks
the woods will be full of activity,
which even the Wilson bill cannot
prevent. There's nothing wrong
with this kind of weather, at least in
this neck o' woods.
The Tionesta Gas Co. has let the
contract to Grove Bros, for drilling

ent need, but as precautionary matter
in case anything should go wrong
with No. 3, where the present supply
of gas is now taken from.
A correspondent at Starr postof-
Gee writes about a school exhibition
given at the Uerman mil school
bouse on the zbtb inst.: it was a
graod success and was so largely at
tended that not only the building
was filled but many had to remain
ontside. 1 be school room was more
beautifully decorated than on any
previous occasion, and the stage was
elevated so that the people in the
back part of the room could com'
mand a good view without difficulty
At 7:30 p. m. the entertainment was
begun by an openiug address follow
ed by music, after which the large
program, consisting of recitations,
dialogues, tableaux, essays, and vo
csl and instrumental music, was very
successfully carried out, eaeh perform
er doing his or her part exceptionally
well. The entertainment lasted till
10:30 when all departed for their
homes, feeling that they had enjoyed
a most delightful eveniug's treat.
Hon. Ephraim Cowan, the vet
eran founder of the Warren Mail,
died suddenly in Washington, D. C,
on Tuesday evening, Jan. 23, 1894
He had been somewhat indisposed
with an attack of grip, but was not
considered dangerously ill even up to
the hour of his death. For nearly
forty years Mr. Cowan has been th
editor and proprietor of the Man,
and by a straight-forward, honorable
course has not only made it one of
the most reliable journals of the
State, but by consistent and conscien
tious effort been largely instrumental
in making Warren county what it is
to-day, one of the reliably Republican
of the State. In this work be has
for a number of years past been ably
seconded by bis two sous, Willis and
Dwight, partners in the proprietor-
ship of the paper. Mr. Cowan has
beld many offices of trust, and at the
lime of bis death was private sec re-

Tionesta Junior C. E.
The Tionesta Junior Christian Eo
deavor Society was organized during
the summer of 1892, but no records
were kept till Nov. '92, when the
members numbered nearly forty,

all the gospel literature me raemners
get are carefully saved lor the box or

home missionaries. One large box
was sent to J. B. Mitchell, Medina,

clothing and literature sent to More
head. Miss.. Feb. '93. and another
box of doting Nov. 13, '93, to J. B,
Curreos, Omaha, Neb. In June '93,
$2 00 worth of provisions were given
by the society to a needy family in
the town. In July I oa cream was
served by the Juniors for two nights
and 828.71 netted. From Sept. to
Christmas eight scrapbooks were fill

hospital in Allegheny City

The revival services of the Presby
terian church which closed last week
were attended with a measure of
success that must be very gratifying
alike to pastor and members of the
congregation, not alone on account of I
the goodly number received into
membership, but because of the very
healthy condition in which these ef
forts have left the church. A feature
in connection with the meetings, and
which doubtless added materially to
their success, was the meetings held
for men only. The first one held in
the afternoon of the Sunday preced
ing these services was attended by
nearly all the men in town not con
nected with other churches. The
pastor stated that the object of the
meeting was to consider what could
be done toward helping to make the
meeting successful in accomplishing
the object in view. Many suggestions
were offered by those present, which
might be summed up in a single state
ment: "Attend ourselves and endea
vor to get others to do so. lhe
large attendance of men at the meet'
ings of the the two weeks following
showed that they were in earnest.
Last Sabbath afternoon another
large and quite enthusiastic meeting
was held at which the question of
"how to make permanent the work
so auspiciously begun" was discussed.
lbe results or these meetings bsve
already begun to show themselves;
for instances, one class in Sunday
School bad an increase of ten men on
Sunday last, and still "there are more
to follow." The question of "how to
reach the men" has been largely
solved in this place it would seem,
They are ready to go if properly ap
proached. Rev. McAninch is enthu
siastic and indefatigable in bis efforts,
and his popularity with young and
old has largely told in favor of the
church in this work.
Hicks on February Weather.
lbe month is expected to come in
cloudy with rain, sleet and snow up
to the 7th, when a regular storm per
iod, with snow, is predicted lasting
till the 11th. This period is to be
both preceded aDd followed by a
sweeping cold wave, insuring cold
weather until about the 14th. The
17th is the central day of the next
storm period, and by the 21st will
reach the eastern section ; this period
will also be followed by a severe cold
wave. The month is expected to go
out in cold winter weather. Accord
injj to these forecasts, our winter is to
come io February, when, if Mr,
Hicks is correct, we will, or should,
have sleighing and enough freezing to
insure an ice barvest. .Let s watch
and see.
KellettTlUe.
The lumbermen have been improving
the time tbe last few days putting in their
wares, the plank road being the only
road where sleighing is Indulged in. A
few inches of snow would add greatly to
the hauling.
Some time ago mention was made
about the protracted meeting at Whig
Hill, which was held in the newly dedi
cated M. E. Church, by both M. E. mem
bers and Free Methodists. Since last
week the latter named denomination has
been holding meetings In the F. M.
church with good results. The young
people from here seem to take a lively
interest in the meetings, as several are in
attendance nightly.

Wm. Tobey's fast trotter gave an ex
hibition of bis wonderful speed one day
last week by whirling Mr. Tobey and cart
over the rough hubs and having bis own
way until the sulky could stand tbe
strain no longer and gave way, throwing
Mr. T. out and smashing the cart all to
smithereens. Fortunately the occupant
was not injurred in the least. This is
not the first time that this animal has
had his own way, and it is high time that
he should be checked.
The ice crop in this vicinity looks
mighty slim and with most of the win
tor past there are small prospects of a
very large crop.
Kellettville seems to have a desire to
let the people in the outside world know
what they are doing, as they have a re

NEWSY NOTES.
Porter Haskell of Main street, while
talking with a friend yesterday just be
fore dinner time, was taken by a violent
case of hemorrhage of tbe nose, and two
physicians were called to administer tbe
proper remedies. In a short time he
was all right again. Clarion Jacksonian,
It is a peculiar fact that for the first
time in a quarter of a century a barrel of
apples Is worth more than a barrel of
flour, and tbe relative difference prom
ises to prove larger before the year is
closed. Fair apples now retail at f3
barrel, while flour can be obtained fully
a dollar cheaper. It is also cheaper to
buy good oranges by the box than ap
ples by the barrel. Ex.
Advices by the steamer Belglo from
China, announced the complete aniiihlla
tion by earthquake of the town of Kutch
an, Persia. Twelve thousand persons
were killed in the awful disaster. Ten
thousand bodies have been recovered to
date. The once important and beautiful
city of 20,000 people is now only a scene
of death, desolation and terror, fifty
thousand cattle were destroyed at the
same time.
We all admire the beautiful bymu
"Nearer my God, to Thee." Now if you
will take a bushel of potatoes, a sack of
tlour and a big chunk of meet to some
poor family, who are suffering for the
necessaries of life, it will bring you near
er to God than all the spiritual songs you
can sing for the next six mouths. Tbe
songs are all right and exert a good inliu
ence, but when mixed with a charitable
doed the combination gives much peace
ful rest to the conscious.
A few days ago Judge Doty of West
moreland county, Pa., decided in a test
case that theatrical companies, exhibi
tions meuageries, circuses, etc., are re
quired under the law to pay a license of
J50 In every county where they do busl
ness. unless they have a state license,
The decision is made on an old act of As
sembly which was passed in 1815, wheu
the state was hard up for money, aud
which has never been repealed. Its en
forcemeat to the letter would play ha
voc with most of the theatrical troupes in
this State and would make them very
scarce withiu our borders in future,
However, Attorney General Hensel aud
the Auditor General have accepted J udg
Duty's ruling, and have iustructed coun
ty treasurers to collect tho foO fee, ex
cent where a State license is held. The
latter costs ? 1,000.
Of peculiar happenings, one occurred
right here In Bradford a few days ago,
that many say they have never beard the
like of. Master James Lludsey a few
days sinco found in the front yard of Mr,
C. E. JudU's property on Congress street
a pansy stock, containing some six
eight buds and one full blown pansy,
Tho flower was perfect, unusually large
of the mottled variety aud seemed to be
quite hardy. -Record Another of these
peculiar happenings can be recorded as
transpiring in our Mountain City. On
Sunday last Mr. W. O. Marvin wore a
buttoniere of pansies that ho secured
from a slock in his garden, and be it
said ffrom undori.the snow ;whlch had
fallen In the small hours of the morn.
The pansies were noticed in bloom tho
day previous by Mr.jMartin and reserved
for the Sabbath. Kane Republican.
J. II. Connely, of Greensburg, Ind.,
who died about ten days ago, participated
in one of the most dramatic episodes of
the late war. He was the officer in
charge of the signal station on Kenesaw
Mountain, from which was sent Gener
al 8herman's celebrated message, "Hold
the Fort." At the last reunion Connely
attended he told the story of the famous
dispatch from Kenesaw,lropenting it as it
was dictated by Sherman.

About a year ago I took a violent at

found that it was what l needed, it i
got no relief from one dose I took anoth
er, and it was only a few days until I was
free trom the couKii. I tnuiK peopio in
