The large new barn belougiog to
John Wood ou the old Siggins farm
at the top of the McGee hill, was

Wood's farm machinery together
with 8 cows and 1 horse was in the

for Mr. Wocd he was insured for an
amount that will cover his loss, which
is estimated at between $1200 and

We had a call Monday from
Photographer Dufl'ey, who is pleas
auily remembered by many of our
citizens; he is located for a time at
Cooksburg, this county, where be has
a portable gallery aud is having a
good run of custom. He says the
new summer resort at that place is
attracting wide attention from the
large cities and has many more ap
plicants than can be accommodated
The proprietors are arrangiog to en
large their accommodations for the
next season. Two strong springs are
located there, one a mineral and the
other a sulphur spring, besides oceans
of the purest fresh water flowing di
rect from the mountains.
Bloomers may now be said to be
hi good standing. A Mrs. Noe ap
peared on the streets of Little Rock,
Arkansas, wearing bloomers and
riding a wheel. She was arrested
and taken before the court for trial,
aud the judge, iu delivering his opin
ion, said: "Woman has a coustitu
tional aud a God'giveu right, to ride
a bicycle, aud they are bound to
to have some comlortable and appro
priate dress therefor. Were Mrs.
Noe a womau with one foot io tho
grave and the other ou a pedal, were
she of a size that threatened to
frighten horses aud impede traffic,
or were her habiliments of the sort
originally desigued by the wocuau
whose name they bear. I should be
disposed to give her the limit of the
law. As it is the case is dismissed at
the city's cost."
A four-year-old son of Henry
Armburger, who lives at Hunter
station, two miles below Iionesta,
met with an accident a day or two
ago, at the same time narrowly es
caping death. Mr. A. had taken his
44-calibre Winchester out to shoot
a groundhog and had returned to the
house where he sat down outside to
show the gun to some friends, the lit
tle fellow being near with some other
children. In some unaccountable
manner the gun was discharged, the
ball passing between the second aud
third Ginger of the child's right hand,
lacerating the fingers badty, but for
tunately breaking no bones. Dr.
Siggins dressed the wound, and hopes
to save the fingers, though the flesh
being stripped from the bones wil
make it a difficult wound to heal.
Killed by a Circular Saw.
About noon on Thursday of last
week, Joseph Williams lost bis life
by falling on a circular bbw. He
was employed on Lynch's shingle
mill No. 3, at Lynch, Howe towu
ship, this county, and slipped and
fell on the bolting saw. His right
arm was severed at the shoulder, the
saw passing across his chest to the
left severing a portion of his lungs
and ribs aod stopping at the back
bone. With great effort he threw
himself backward, took two steps aod
was caught by a fellow workman
Dr. Gass, of Sheffield, was summoned
and dressed the wounds, but it was
evident there was no hope of saving
the man's life, and at five o'clock io
the eveoiog he died, having retained
consciousness almost to the last
moment. He was a man between 25
and 30 years of age, and leaves a wife
and young child. The unfortunate
man was formerly from Corsica, Jef
ferson county, ra., and was one ot a
family of 15 children, aud tbe first
to pass away.

ing
HtsoLi Tiows.
In humble dependence upon God aud
thuukful acknowledgement of Divine
Wisdom we, the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union of Forest. County,
declare and resolve,
I. That we will prosecute our work un
til the saloon shall not have a place in the
land.
II. That we return our thanks to the
pross of Forest County which has given
ns space In their columns for Temper
ance Itoms and report. That we recog
nize the pross as a mighty power In our
line of work, and solicit space In all
county papers.
III. That we pledge our support and
personal interest and influence to the
teachers of our county who are trying to
fulllll the spirit as well as the letter of
the law requiring Scientific Temperance
Instruction in our public schools.
IV. That we give our Christian sym
pathy and hoarty approval to the work
era in the Keeley Institute, and that we
encourage by words of love all who try
to help themselves by sclentiflo treat
ment to a purer and better life, giving
thanks to our loving Father for opening
this new door for helpless men.
V. That, as the duty of each Individ
ual is self-development, and suffrage Is
conducive to peronal Independence and
mental growth we sock for the ballot not
only as promotive of these ends but as
the most effective means of defense, lib
orty and happiness; believing that all
women as well as men are created free
and equal, and that woman are wronged
who are governed without their consent,
and that the progress of women Is hin
dered without the priviloge of Belf-gov
crument, and that childhood suffers from
lack of the mother element in the gov
eminent, and that the nation's safety de
mands the influence and power of wo
man in the administration of public af
fairs, we therefore resolve; In combined
and persistant efforts for securing the en
franchisement of women.
VI. That we deprecate beyond measure
the use of tobacco In any form by the
public educator of the young, whether
by the board of education ot public
schools or as ministers of the gospel, and
we beseech that the board of education
