Tbe schools will opeu tbe last Moud iy in August for a term of eight months, The drouth which has been upon ua for the past month or six weeks ia by no means confined to the east, as reports coming from the western Country state that corn and other crops re literally burning up by the greBt heat and dry weather. The po talo crop of this country may be said to be practically ruined, and any amount of rain we may have from ibis on could not improve the pros pects much. Oats, not a good crop at best this season, have ripened too soon, and the yield will bardly be half what it should. Fruit has stop ped growing and is fast falling from the trees. And still the prospects for rain are not promising. Somebody is eternally discover ing something, and here is a discov ery that seems to provide a way out of it for those who love fruit and think they dare not eat it: Fruit skiuB carry geims, and are uo more intended for human sustenance than potato skins, melon riuds or pea pods. The bloom of the peach is a luxur iant growth of microbes, that of the grape ouly less so, and when those skins are taken into tbe stomach they find more favorable conditions fur their lively and rapid development, which causes tbe decay of the fruit I before it ia possible to digest it. This is the reason that many persons think they cannot eat raw fruit. If they would in all cases discard the skin, they would derive only good from the fruit itself. loose who nave had occasion to pass over the river bridge during the past few days have, or could have, been witnesses to a very tempting sight. In the eddy formed by the middle pier was to be seen a school of suckers covering a space of about 40 feet square, and containing no less than 300 fish, ranging in length from 18 inches to 2 feet, and weigh ing perhaps from 4 to 8 pounds. The sight we say was very tempting, as the big cusses lazily moved about within a foot of the top of tbe water, some of them with their back fins out of water. A few feet from this school, in deeper water, could be seen a dozen or two of salmon, a number of wbich were estimated to weigh from 8 to 10 pounds each Tbe dreariest part of the whole show was that the fish wouldu't bite. A stranger who is stopping in our town remarked to us the other day: "If your citizens would take a little more pride in aleeking up aud beautifying their respective premises, we would leave lionesta with a more favorable impression of the thrift aud enterprise of its people." That re mark brought to our remembrance tbe many dwelling houses which are sorely in ueed of tbe painter's brush, not only to beautify the property, but for the protection of the building. Tbere are a number of theiu. Tbeu too, tbe uncut grass and weeds iu tbe yards is not only an eyesore to our own people, but strangers look upon this negligence of duty as not becom ing to tbe beauty aud prosperty of a towu. Let us trim our shade trees, repair our brokeu sidewalks, paint our houses and places of business, and otherwise add beauty and pleas antness to our surroundings. Many strangers visit Tiouesta daily who notice all these things, aud they don't neglect to speak about them when away. Death of Mm. II. F. Connely. Ou Saturday, July 28, 10!(4, at 1:15 p. m., Sadie, wife of II. F. Con nely, passed away in death at her home, at the Fogle Farm, Harmony township, this county. Her illness waa of short duration, she having beon ailing only since the Saturday previous, death being caused by blood poison. The deceased's maiden name was Barr. About 12 years ago she was united in marriage with II. F. Con nely, and together they have lived happily during this period. The tin i,m was blessed with four childreu who, with the husband, survive her. Mrs. Connely was a woman highly esteemed for her many good qualities of mind and heart, and in her death the community austaina an irrepara ble loss. Our striken friend "Doc," as he is most familiarjy known to oil hia acquaintances, has the heartfelt sympathy of all in his hour of great bereavement. To him, and the little ones left motherless the shock is vert- great indeed. Mrs. Connely was aged 32 years. The funeral tuok place on Sabbath afternoon, conducted by Rev. F. F. Shoup, and the remains were laid to rest in the Wesleyan Cemetery ut Stewarts Run. A RARE TREAT. For the Citizens of Tionesta mid Vi cinity. Through the intercession of friends here of Prof. J. T. Teel & Company, of Erie, the fur famed conjurer, has been engaged to give two of bis very interesting performances in the school house in Tionesta next Wednesday and Thursday evenings, Aug. 8th aud 9th. This much can be said that Prof. Teel ha never before visited so small a place as Tionesta, playing ex clusively in large cities at 50c, $1.00 aud $1.50 seats, but has been induced to come to Tionesta by frieuds of bis who are here. His show will prove a rare treat to our people. In order that all may atteud, the prices of ad mission have been fixed at 35c. and 25o., and 15c. for children. See lith ographs and hand bills. Prof. Teel is tbe equal of Harry Keller, the world-famous magician. Kellettvllle. Clarence Jenkins has moved from the Kribbs farm on Whig Hill, to Kellett ville, where ho will strike another job much more to his liking than tilling the soil, Clarenco has served one year on the farm, and under his able manage. uient Mr. Kribbs feels proud. Adolph Bauer takes the plow by the horns, as it were, and for a year at least will wield the farm machinery. Ad. is old in ex perience in farming, and as a horny hand cd son of tho soil is a complete success. If you don't think so just watch the farm of W. A. Kribbs for the next year. L. J.

Who can toll T J. B. Carpenter of Newtown Mills is suffering from the effects of being pois oned by ivy, a weed that grows exten sively iu this section.

Perhaps there is not a man in Clarion or adjoining counties who can show a ccord in tlio walking line to be compar ed with that of J. J. Blackford, of Crown,' this county, who is employed by the Na tional Transit Co. as line walker. Mr. Blackford's duties consist in making an inspection of the pipe through which oil is conveyed, and in order to take notes of any repairs needed is obliged to fol low closely the course of the line, which means a bee line route, regardless of hill or vale, the chief consideration of the Company being to use as little pipe be tween points as possible. During the first three years of Mr. Blackford's ser- ice the route was from Crown to Kano, a distance of 21 miles as the crow Hies. Every day during the first tliree years, Sunday included, he covered this dis tance between the points above named, making a total of 22,ti'Ji miles during the first three years of his pilgrimage. Dur the past two years he has covered 4305 miles or a grand total of 27,000 miles in five years. When It is remembered that the record has been for all kinds of weather, winter and summer, and that bis speed was necessarily retarded by the constant watchfulness required In order to detect any leaks in or other damage to the line, it will appear as a walker Mr. Blackford's record is hard to surpass. Mr. Blackford seems to enjoy the exer cise too, but it is very poor sport for the man who undertakes to kocp pace with him for any length of time, as wo are as sured by one of his friends who under took to keep pace with him for a few miles oue day not long since.

A new article of food promises to be soon belore the public. It is grapesirup, ami is said to be altogether delicious. After the lirst crop of Muscat grapes in California is disposed of thoie conies the second crop of smaller ones and cullings. From these, alter careful experiments in reducing grape-Juice to grape sirup, the new product lias been evolved to take the place of maple aud cauu sirup. It has not tlio thick and intense sweolnctiM of cane sirup and suar, which uiake those products bad for people with liverR. It Iirr tho flavor of the Muscat grape, and containR over 25 per cent, of Rugnr. Ma ple Riigar Ir disappearing from the list of good things. Grapo sirup is tho only thing good enough to take its place. It can bo made for 40 eent a gallon. Deal ers are Relling it at f.1.20 and over. That prico will have to bo scaled down greatly before grape Rirup comoR into general use. Cranberry towiudiip has had many cur ious sights and happenings recorded of her, but at lirst sight the fact that snow fell in soveral places In that township Saturday while the thermometer regis tered 112 degrees in the sun, would scoin too much of a story to believe, but it is thn truth. It waR at Fertig and other gas farms in the township, on which the big gas wel In are located, aud the snow was caused by the rapid evaporation of the gas upon coining in contact with the healed air.
