The Blizzard is responsible for
tho following : "A six-year old Oil
City urcliiu receutly attended the
marriage of a relative. He saw
others cougraluluting the bride and
was anxious to do likewise. Finally
he grasped her by the hand and said
in a loud tone : "1 wish you many
happy weddings."
Farmers of Western New York
are beiug caught on tho billboard
privilege racket. Two men paint a
sigu on the farmer's fence anil give
him a few dollars to guarantee them
that uo one else will be permitted to
paint a sign over them. The farmer
is aeked to sign a receipt acknowledg
ing the payment of the money in or
der that they can return the same to
their employer. The receipt turos
out to be a promisory note. Ex.
Mrs. Andrew Carr, who has bceu
troubled for some time past with a

tbe second toe of her right foot, was
compelled to have the toe amputated
last Wednesday. Tbe operation was
successfully performed by Dr. Sig

Remember the elocutionary en
tertainment to be given at the Court
bouse next Saturday evening, May
11, under the auspices of the Epworth
League. Mr. Lindsey has been

known to be a fine elocutionist, be
sides, the entertainmeu is for a good
cause. Come out.
The happiest man in tbe world
is he who has the fewest wants. Ev
ery man should educate himself to
live on a narrow basis of desires, for
if his desires be many and bis grati
fications few, be needs be miserable.
But if his gratifications always ex
ceed his desires, then he may always
wear grin. Ex.
The Odd Fellows of Pennsylva
nia are preparing to dedicate their
$500,000 temple at Philadelphia.
The services will be held May 21,
when there will occur perhaps the
greatest parade ever seeu in Phila
delphia. There are in the state
about 110,000 Odd Fellows, of whom
the officers say 50,000 will partici
pate in the march.
This will be the banner year for
the shirt waist girls. It is said that
one woman in Bradford who makes
ehirt waists at tbe rate of 25 cents
apiece, bas 500 orders to fill before
the Fourth of July. If what is fair
for the goose, is fair for the gander,
men may go to cburch and the thea
tre in their shirt sleeves. Bradford
Record.
The creditmau of a large whole
sale bouse in New York informs us
that he always takes tbe newspapers
of towns where he bas customers about
whose standing there is any question.
"When they advertise freely," he
says, "we feel that tbey are selling
goods and making money. Wheu
tbey quit advertising we take meas
ures to fiud out why." Ex.
Some one, who has evidently
beeu the victim of the gossip's
tongue, says: "There is in every com
munity a set of people who are con
stantly worrying about and over their
neighbors' affairs and of late these
gossips seem to have ruu out of sub
jects, but to keep up their record and
their band in, they are whispering
about that Adam and Eve's marriage
certificate can't be found."
The prevailing drouth in this
section is becoming serious, and in
some parts of the oil region it is
alarming. Fierce forest fires are
raging in Bradford aud Elk counties.
Men are obliged to make a constant
fight to save oil rigs, tanks, lumber
and timber. Drilling wells in ruaoy
places are suspendid because of lack
of water, as springs are dried up.
Franklin News.
Fred McDonnell, tbe Tilusville
boy murderer, bas had his sentence
commuted to imprisonment for life.
His imprisonment will probably
serve the ends of justice fully as well
as bis execnlion. So long as ihere
was a question as to his sanity and it
certainly seems that uo sane person
would even commit such a henious
crime the pardon board doubtless
acted wisely in sparing his life.

While Jeff Grove and Jared
Huling were coming down the hill
across the river, on their return from
the Cherry Ruu mineral spring they
espied a large rattesnake crossing the
road. After Jared bad killed his
snakoship it was found to measure
three feet and six inches in length,
and carried thirteen rattles. This is
the first rattler that we have heard of
this season and is a pretty good sized
one for a starter.
The Huntingdon Herald gets
around tbe long and short of tbe
whole thing in this style : "It is said
that a tail girl named Short, was once
promised to a big mau named Little,
while Little little thinking of Short,
loved a little lass named Long. To
make a long story short, Little pro
posed to Long and Short longed to
be even with Little's short-comings.
So Short meeting Long threatened to
marry Little before Long. Query :
Did tall Short love big Little less be
fore Little loved Long."
The long-drawn, tedious con
test over tbe judgeship election in
Indiaua county, IV, between Judge
Harry White and John P. Blair, has
ended by a decision in favor of White.
The tribunal has declared White
elected by 128 votes. This is 41 votes
more than tbe majority allowed
White by the original election re
turn. The costs, which are to be
paid by Indiana county, are very
heavy. There were between 2,000
and 3,000 witnesses. The stenogra
pher's fee amounted to $1,970.

1 Dates iu the month of April
eoem to have figured prominently in
the history of the United Slates.
Did you ever notice that in April
took place three events of im
inence conpcquence in this country?
On April 19, 1775, was fired "the shot
that was board around the world,"
the opening gun at the battle of lex
ington, which ushered in the revolu
tion. April 17, 1801, another shot
"echoed around tbe world ;" it was
the greatest international struggle in
modern history. April 9, 18G5, oc
curred the surrender of Lee to Grant
at Appomattox.
The extremely dry weather for
the past few weeks has caused more
destructive forest fires in Western Pa.
than has ever been known of before
and millions of dollars have been
lost. In the lumber regions every
man that could be procured has been
engager' in fighting fire. It is impos
sible to make a summary of all the
different losses for our space will not
permit. The welcome rain of yester
day has done a wonderful amount of
good both io the way of extinguish
ing fires and in starting the crops
which have beeu planted, and the
outlook is now more pleasant.
It is with much regret that" we
are compelled lo chronicle the serious
illness of Couuty Superintendent G.
W. Kerr, who was stricken down a
week ago last Sunday with renal
colic, hut after being relieved of this
painful disease he became troubled
with luflamation of the parotid
glands, one of tbe salivary glands
situated just in front of or below tbe
ear, which has resulted in the forma
tion of a very large and dangerous
abscess. He is under the care of
Drs. Siggins and Bowman, and Dr.
Ritchey of Oil City was up on Mon
day. His condition at the present
time is extremely dangerous, and it
is hoped that he will soon get relief.
-Startling, if true, is tbe report
that twenty-five young women of
Your.gstowu, O., have organized
themselves into a club to wear bloom
ers and do other things in the way of
promoting ideas of dress reform. The
young women Bre prominent mem
bers of society, and it it is expected
that others will follow their example.
Clarion Democrat. The time will
soon be here when a fellow will go

days' labor, but with his soul filled
with rapture because of the expecta
tion of spending a delightful eveuing
with his best gill, and find that his
sister has gone off oo a drunk and is
wearing his bran new summer pants.

To the VoIom of Forest Comity.
Kditob RKroni.H'AT :
I noticed In your last edition a state
ment that I had reported throughout the
county that A. J. McCray, my opponent
for the nomination for Associate Judge,
was not a citizen of Forest county, as I
then belioved. I did so represent, on the
authority of the city directory of Tilus
ville, Pa , from which I make the follow
ing extracts : Titusvillo directory of
1S90-91, page 71 j McCray, Andrew J.,
lumber Mnfr., ros. 1112 K. Main j direc
tory 1K93, McCray, A. J., lumber, house
192 K. Main j directory of 1W4, McCray,
A. J., lumber, house 192 E. Main : direc
tory of 1S95; McCray, A. J., lumber,
house 71, N. Brown.
This was the basis on which 1 made
said representation, and since Boeing tho
article In last week's Republican I have
taken the pains to go to Titusville and
Investigate, and I fiud that his household
goods are still In his residence at 71 N.
Hrown St, I also have a statement from
fifteen prominent citizens of Titusville,
including J. T. Hemphill, the register
and assessor of the ward In which Mr.
McCray resides.
Following Is the statement of promi
nent citizens of Titusville.
We, the undersigned citizens of the
city of Titusville, Pa., are acquainted
with A. J. McCray. and regard him as
an honorable and upright citizen and res
ident of our place. Wo bcliovo he is en
gaged in the lumber business in Forost
county, part of his time. Titusville,
May 4, 1S95.
I have copies of the above described
directories, and the statement In my pos
session and will be pleased to show same
to any porson interested.
It has also been ascertained that my
opponent, Mr. McCray, was exonerated
from taxation In this county In 1893, and
any person who has any doubt about the
matter can find the same by looking at
the records.
I understand that my opponent is doing
considerable talking about my marking
his name ofT tho tickets which I have
been circulating throughout the county,
and claiming that I have no right so to
do. I claim that ho is wrong, as the tick
ets which I have been circulating are
mine, and are not the tickets sent out by
the Chairman of the County Committee.
I notice in a copy of the last edition of
the Marienvillo hrprcx, that Mr. Mc
Cray has published, in part, tho samo no
tice that appeared in tho last Republi
can, but omits to state that It is his in
tention to become a resident of Tionesta,
in the evont of his eloction, where the
services of an Associato Judge are fre
quently required whon thcro is no court.
The people of Forest county cen draw
their own conclusions from the foregoing
statement. Very resp'y yours,
S. S. Can field.
