play is "Crawford's Claim j or Nug
get Nell, the Pet of Poker Flat," aod
each particular part was rendered in
a manner which did credit to the
performers. Miss Edith Green, of
East Hickory, who took tbe leading
part, "Nugget Nell," was perfect in
the rendition she gave to the heroiue
of tbe play. JDr. iiowman made a
good heco, as "Herbert Stanton,"
while Ted Kelly acted the part of the
villian as "Sidney Woodward" in
good style ; Charlie Kirchartz made
a fine Irish lawyer as "Mike Moore."
Jae. Landers sustained the part of
"Bill Mulligan," the genius to good
advantage, and Kory Heath made a
splendid "broken down actor, as
well as a "good friend." Joe. La a
ders was always on hand at the right
time as "Jack Davis," the big heart
cd friend of "Nell," "Sid." and the
"Deacon." Dick Davis was rieht at

The business men of Chicago and other
cities are working tor a one-cent rate of
letter postage. The idea is to get a bill
fhrniiirh thn nnit PonipreRS tn reriucift let-
ter postage to one cent per ounce and to
raise the rate for serial publications and
trasby literature to 8 cents per pound,
Tbe idea is also to reduce tbe postage on
merchandise from 16 to 8 ots. per pound,
These changes were urged by ex-Postmaster
General Wanamaker when be

The W. N. Y. A P., in order to hold
the charter of the old Petroloum Railroad
from Titusville to Pioneer, is obliged to
run a train ovor the road once a year.
The aunual train passed over it on Satur
day and consisted of a flat car, au euglne
aud caboose. Tbe flat car was ahead of
the engine aud carried the train crew, a
number of laborer and several railroad
officials. Tbe trip was made without an
accident, which, iu the condition of the
track and road bed, seems rather fortu
nate Blizzard.
To be "bull-headed" is to be determin
ed. There is nothing so bull-headed aa a
bull. When he makes up his mind not
to die he never gives up till death kills
him. A contest between death and a
bull in a coal bank lasted 60 days, re
sulting in a victory for grim death. But
the bull never gave up. The conflict was
on the Sloan farm east of town. A bull
in pasture had falleu through into a de
serted coal bank aa early as last June,
and wheu his body was found a few days
ago the carcass was only in the first
stages of decay, so that the poor brute
must buve been iu the bole at least two
mouths before expiring. Clarion Jack-

What promises to be a fatal gauning

bunt would be of benefit. Ha weut to
the Widow Mahle farm near by and, in
company with two sons ol the widow
started for the woods. One of tho party
wounded a squirrel and when It started
to run down, ran to catch it. While the
three young men were surrounding the
tree tho gun of one of the Mahle brothers
was discharged and the charge of 40 or
more shot entered Decter's groin. Ue
was carried to tho home of Widow
Mahle, where the effects of the wound
and his weak condition, caused by his
long previous sickness, causes his recov
ery to be pronounced as extremely
doubtful by three physicians, who held a
consultation. Derrick.
