has been there for the past six weeks,
concludes wilb this little send-off" for
the weather: "This is au elegant
climate. We have had beautiful
Bunshine nearly every day since we
came not a drop of rain aod only a
few flurries of enow." He did not
know, of course, when be went away
that there was good deal of the same
kind of weather booked for (bis re
gion so spring-like that Jake or
Jim might expect him to Tionesta
almost any day to help fold the pa'
pers and take a fishing trip.

Brock way, who is now eighty-seven
years of age, last week chopped down
a maple tree that was over two feel

old mail" can beat Brockway on
translations of Horace, but we will
bet a doughnut that our "old man,"
can beat Gladstone at his favorite re
creation of wielding an axe. Bur
glars broke into the store at Parrish
Wednesday night of last week while
Mr. Parrish was at his home in this
place, and helped themselves to such
things as best suited tbeir fancy.
They fouud the goods marked very
low, therefore secured quite a quan
tity of shirts, uuderweur, gloves, mit
tens, shoes, tobacco, cigars, knives,
notions, eto. lhere was no snow on
the ground aod it was impossible to
track the robbers, aud there is ti
clue as to who the guilty parties ure.
Entrance was gained by breaking the
glass in a window. Mr. Parrish bas
now marked tbe goods up in the hope
that W tbey come again tbe price will
Brighten tbem away.

hours aod was unmolested, though
this may be attributed lees to the
good nature of our citizens than to
the fact that be was traveling iucog.
He left at 3:30 for Tionesta, where he
will visit bis brother and as like as
not go fishing on Sunday or indulge
in some other repreheusible business.

somewhat chagrined at having to re

THE JAMESTOWN MURDER.
The Microscope to Be Used to Discover
the Guilty Party.
Jamestown, N. Y. Dec. 20. This
morning Coroner Bowers, accompanied
by Fred S. Marsh, a local scientist, went
to the residence of Winslow Shearman,
where Mrs Shearman and Mrs. Davis
were murdered by an unknown assassin
last Saturday, aud made a microscopic
examination of tho eyes of the dead
woman. They proceeded on the theory
that the image oftho last object on which
tho eyes of a dead person rested was Im
pressed on the eyes. Nothing was re
vealed in the eyes of Mrs. Davis, but on
one of those of Mrs. Shearman the form
of a man was distinctly photographed.
The microscope used enlarged the object
viewed 400 times Its real size. The pic
ture as revealed did not show the lace
of the man who is supposed to bo tbe
murderer. The man's position was such,
according to those who made the exami
nation, that the body was shown only
from the breast dowu to the feet.
After the first surprise of the startling
discoery made by Mr. Marsh was over
he made a most careful examination,
which clearly revealed the man's form.
He was apparently a big man with a
long heavy overcoat, unbuttoned, and
which reached below the knees. The
wrinkles in tho trousors could be plainly
seen, and one foot was behind the other
with the knee bonding as if in a stooping
posturo about to take a stop.
Dr. Bowers, the coroner, then made
an examination, and says he saw the pic
ture as distinctly ns ho could have seen a
man standing in front of him. E. G.
Partridge, Albert Hazeltiuo and Rev.
Mr. Stoddard, who were ut the house
when the examination was made, were
called into the room and examined the
eye, each one of them verifying the state
ment and describing the man in similar
language.
Tho eyes or Mrs. Shoarmau were both
removed and brought to this city, where
a scientific process of photographing
them will be used in the ho pe of secur
ing a photograph of the picture shown in
the eye.
Koltl Attempt at Robbery.
Last night about eleven o'clock, as
Jas. 11. Morgan was about to close bis
store, which is located next door to
the Republican office, two meu ap
peared at the front window. As he
was about to take the money from
the till aud place it iu his pucket.nne
of the meu opened the door, and pre
senting a revolver ut Mr. Morgan,
demanded bis cash. James dared
him to shoot, at the sume time reach
ing for a hatchet which lay oou-vt-uieutly
near. This seemed to
terrorize the loaded man and both be
aud his pal turned tail and ran dowu
the street. The secnud fellow, who
apparently had a club iu his band,
remained on the outside hilu the
demand was made. Mr. Morgan was
unable to recognize eirher of bis vis
itors. This is geltiug pretty bold,
and 'twouldn't bb a bad idea fur our
citizens to load up aud keep loaded.
East Hickory.
A dunco at AA'hitton's hall last Friday
evening attracted quite a good crowd,
and all seemed to find a good deal of en
joyment.
Mr. Glenn and MUs Leona Bowman
