nated in another part of the mill, un

A very disastrous lrost occurred

10 o'clock there was a slight fall of

minutes, after which it rapidly turned
colder aud several people teport ice
that Iroxe one-iourih mcb in thick
ness. While the damage to growing
crops along the river was quite se
vere it was not so disastrous as in the
higher sections of the county, where
the damage to both fruit and cereals
was very great, and serious results
are feared, fur in some places tbe
crops were frozen clear to the ground.
The recent raing and warm weather
had caosed everything to grow very
rapidly, ac ' crops were further ad
vanced than usual, but it is hoped
that all may turn out well yet.

Our Own were defeated Thursday.
The secret may as well be made pub
lic, lbey were beaten br Indian
witchcraft. In the audience was an
Indian barber from Tionesta, who
was filled with admiration for the
Carnegie Club and booze. He it
was who downed the Hitters. Near
the end of the game, when Oil City
was in the lead, he practiced the
black art and cast a spell over the
proceedings. Seating himself on the
grnuud, he deliberately removed one
of hi) shoes, took off his stockings
and extracted therefrom a lot of
leaves from some unknown plant of
wonderfully magical power, and scat
tered them on the gruuud with signif
icant but unintelligible incantations.
Hereafter he should be ruled off the
grounds." The foregoing is an ex
tract from tbe Oil City lilitzard't re
port of last Thursday's game between
Oil City and Carnegie, iu which Oil
City "got it in the neck" 9 to 7.
But Russell says that was only a
small sample of what be can do in the
line of "Indian witchcraft," and if
Oil City don't come to the front and
do the proper caper with Solomon
O'Bail and the rest of tbe "Injuns,"
he will "hoodoo" every game Oil City
plays this summer.

Death ol (Jco. W. Kerr.
The death of (Jnorgo V. Kerr, Superin
tendent of Public Instruction of Forest
county, which occurred at his homo in
this place on last Friday, May 10, was a
shock to bis largo circle of frionds and
aoiuaintnnses. Until less than two weeks
before bis death he had boon apparently
in bis 11 Mini health and was considered
one of the most robust mnnoftbo county.
On Sunday April 2Sth, he was taken sev
erely ill, but was soon relieved by medi
cal treatment.
Tbe day following however the disease
again mado it appearance which proved
to be kidney trouble, and, as the autopsy
revealed, was beyond tho power of modi
cal aid to remove. He gradually sank
Into a semi-conscious condition and so
continued till his death, a week later.
Perhaps no man In tho county had a wider
clrelo of frionds and acquaintances, or
exerted a greater influence than he, and
his death will bring sorrow to very many
hearts.
He was born near Tylersburg, Clarion
county, Jan. 20, 1853, where he continued
to live till he came to Tlonesia, twelve
J'cars ago.
A ftor passing through the public schools
at bis homo be went to Edinboro and at
tended tho Normal School at that place.
When about 23 years of aga be began
teaching school, near his home, having
charge of the Tylersbuig schools six
years and was well known as a most suc
cessful teacher. During this time he fre
quently tipeut a part of his time In the
summer working at his trade; being that
of stone mason.
In 1S83 he was elected principal of the
Tionesta school which at that time was
considered a most difticult one to manage.
From the vary beginning be was a com
plete success and he gained for himself
audi a reputation that was the means of
placing him at the bead of the school af
fairs of this county.
Ue was elected to the office of Superin
tendent of Public Instruction in June
1887. lie was re-elected In 1890 and again
in 18!3 having one year more of his third
term.
From earliest childhood be was instruct
ed in the Word of God by pious parents,
and always continued a close student of
tho Bible and constant attendant at the
services of God's house. Although be
never connoctod himself with tbe church
be had expressed himself as trusting in
Christ aud intending soon to make a pub
lic profession of bis faith by uniting with
church.
The last work he did was to write out a
list of the utterances of Christ on the
cross which he sent with another member
of bis Sunday School class, he having
been taken ill before tbe Sunday School
hour.
lie leaves a largo circlo of friends to
mourn his departure. from earth, among
these are the teachers of the county, who
were much attached to him. lie also
leaves behind, several brotbors and sis
tois and a wife to whom is extondod tbe
sympathy of all in their bereavement.
Iu manner and disposition Mr- Kerr was
pleasing and kind, and his loss will be
deeply felt by nil.
Among the many tokens o affoctlon
and friendship obeervad, were the floral
offerings of the members of his Sunday
School class and tbe Odd Fellows. Lilacs
and Lilies of the Valley, which were Mr.
Kerr's special favorites in flowers, were
also presented by many friends.
The funeral services were conducted
by Itov. J. V. McAninch, at his lute resi
dence, and his remains were taVen to tbe
family burial place in the PreHbyteriau
church yard at Tylersburg. The large
number of people came to that place from
all parts of tha country to pay their last
reiccts to his msmory attest tbe place he
hold in their alTection. Members of the
Order of Odd Fellows were prosent to the
number of about 150.

more children in our public schools were
not kept at home for every trilling cause,
we should not litid uo many of twelve
and liflecii years no further advanced
than they should bo at the ugn of eight or
ten years. Although all might not make
the same pi-ogrcs Miss F.dna has, yet, it
parent w ould cooperate with the teacher
iu securing hotter attendance, a marked
improvement would be seen.

Horrible Accident.
A horrible accident occurred at
Nebraska, this county, Monday
evening at about 6:30 o'clock.
Lean or A. Smith, a son of J. II.
Smith, who was riding ou a box car
on the Collius railroad was iu some
unknown manner kuocked off and
fell between the cars, and one arm
and 011 leg were horribly mangled.
The train was running very slow and
the young man crawled out after one
pair of trucks had run over him. A
messenger was immediately dis
patched to this place for Drs. Siggius
and Bowman who immediately went
up, arriving there about 9 o clock.
The Burgeons amputated both leg
aud arm, but the unfortunate young
roan had lost as much blood before
they arrived that it was impossible to
save his life, although every possible
thing knowu to medical science was
tried, but it proved of no avail, and
he died at about 1 o'clock.
This is the first serious accident
that has occurred at Nebraska since
the .road has been in operation and it
was a great shock to the community.
Tbe youog man was 18 years 5
mouths old and was employed by the
company that own the road although
he was not working on the road, and
this is another warning to people to
keep off trains when they have no
business on them. The sorrowing
parents have the sympathy of the eu
tire community.
