for a brief season. Mr. Nicholson
will be a candidate at the Venango

Tbe thing which miti now spec
ially yearns for is tbe ability to
spread the blessings of life more
evenly along from year to year says
the Fraoklio News. It's either a
feast or a famine, a deluge or a
drought. One season, the farmer's
potatoes are so small the hens won't
scratch 'em up; next season they're
"as big as what hogs dream of when
they're most too fat to snoie." This
year tbe corn crop io Iowa U so tre
mendous that the farmers will not
haul it to maiket for the paltry price
it will bring. Only a year ago tbey
were selling com at the highest price
io tbe history of American farming,
and feeding wheat to tbe hogs.
-Mrs. Susanna Cussins, relict of
the late Samuel Cussins, died at her
borne in Barnett township, Nov. 5,
1895, aged 77 years aod 21 days.
On the Saturday preceding ber death
she suffered a stroke of paralysis,
from which she fell asleep and peace
fully passed away. She leaves four
children by her first husband Peter,
Herman and J. C. Knight, and Mrs.
Elmira Cussins. She bad been a res
ident of Barnett twp. for over 50
years, aud was a womao greatly be
loved by all who knew her. Tbe lu
neral took place on Thursday last,
conducted by Rev. Mr. Kane, of the
Presbyterian church, of which she bad
been a devoted and consistent mem
ber from girlhood. Tbe iotermeut
took place in Greenwood cemetery.
The rains of last Friday aud
Saturday were sufficient to soak the
earth throughly, as well as afford a
nice boat flood for the lumbermen,
who have not been slow to take ad
vantage of it. A large uumber of
boats and barges tbat have been
moored in this eddy all summer
started for the lower markets Mon
day, aod another batch was ruu out
of the creek from tbe Nebraska yards
and started on their southward course
yesterday. Up to this time the
weather bas been propitious for ru li
ning, and the prospects are that all
will get through safely. A coal flood
on tbe Ohio now would be a
blessing alike to those who have the
coal to sell and those that burn it,
and would also brighten up matters
iu this section materially.
An accident occurred a short
distaoce above Nebraska early Mon
day morning by which Mr. 6. T. Beck
with was severely injured and two or
three others less seriously. A crew
of four or five men were goiog up tbe
railroad to tbeir work on a hand-car
before daylight, aod when within a
few rods of Joshua Thompson's place
the car was thrown off the track by a
tree which had falllen across it dur
ing the night. Mr. Beckwith's right
bip bone above tbe joint was broken
and he was otherwise bruised coosid
siderably. About all tbe others were
more or less hurt, but not seriously.
Dr. Morrew was summoned and when
he left his patient he was feeling
quite comfortable considering the
painful nature of his injuries, and
the Dr. believes he will get along
without further difficulty.
The Marienville Express gives
the following particulars of a very
sad occurrence at Scotch Hill, Clar
ion county, on the 20th ult.,by which
Bert Breniman, a young man aged
19 years, lost bis life: Young Bren
iman and some companions had beeo
drinking daring the evening, and he
and a companion bad a fight. After
the fight Breniman was unable to
help himself and was taken to an old
barn owned by a man named Smith,
which was near his borne. About
three o'clock in the morning Miles
Breniman, father of tbe young man,
noticed the barn on fire and dressing
went over, but seeing that be could
not put out the fire watched it burn
ing for some time and then returned
to bis house and again went to bed.
Tbe next morning the lifeless body of
tbe young man was found by a large
stump several rods from wbere tbe
old bam stood, tbe clothing having
been burned from the upper part of
tbe body. Just how tbe barn was
fired and bow the young man got out
aod by tbe stump are things that will
possibly never be known.
Work on the new mill of Wheel
er & Dusenbury at Stowtown, is rapid
ly progressing, and its completion is
expected within tbe next three or four
weeks. Everything ennuected with
the new plant is on a massive and
substantial scale, and when finished
.it is safe to say the mill will be second
to none iu tbe county, and Forest
county bas some fine saw mills. Tbe
new water works are practically com
pleted, und tbe water about read? to
turo into the line. Supt. D. W.Clark,
wbo bas had full charge of the con
struction of the plant from start to
finish, estimates that they will have
130 pounds pressure at mill. Tbe res
ervoir consists of a solid stone dam
built across a ravine at au elevatiou
of 300 feet, aod will hold about 4000
barrels. It is fed by a pare mountain
stream, which in tbe past extraordina
ry dry weather has yielded several
hundred barrels daily. Mr. Clark bat
dooe a fine job of work, and tbe town
will not lack for adequate fire protec
tion wben once tbe mill is under
motion again. Everything about the
towo is on a modern plau, no conven
iences are lacking to make thiogs
comfortable, and a more conteuted,
bappy community could not be fuuod
in a week's travel.

President Cleveland has appointed
Thursday, Nov. 28tb, as a day of na
tional thanksgiving, and in bis pro
clamation says:
"On that day let us forego our us
ual occupations, and in our accus
tomed places of worship join in ren
dering thanks to the giver of every
good aod perfect gift for the boun
teous returns that bave awarded our
labors in the field and in tbe busy
marts of trade; f r the peace and or
der that has prevailed throughout the
land; for our protection from pesti
leu.ee and dire calamity, and for the
other blessings that have showered
upou us from an open hand.
"Aod with our thanksgiving let us
humbly beseech the Lord to so in
cline the hearts nf our people to him
that be will not leave us nor forsake
us as a nation, but will cnotiuue to
us His mercy and protecting care,
guiding us in the path of national
prosperity and happiness, endowing
us with rectitude and virtue, and
keeping alive within us a patriotic
love for the free institutions which
have been given to us as our national
heritage.
"And let us also on the day of our
thaoksgiving especially remember
the poor and needy, aud dy deeds of
charity let os show the sincerely of
our gratitude."

National W. C. T. U. Convention at
Baltimore, Md.
Continued from last week.
Mrs. K. L. Stevenson, National Cor
responding secretary, and Mrs. Helen M.
Barker next gave tbeir reports. Mrs.
Barker termed Pennsylvania as the
"Banner State" showing an increase of
membership of over 2000 j New York,
1000. Ohio, Oregon, Southorn California,
Connecticut and Maine each show a gain
of 500, while the rest all show a gain over
last year. Total receipts for the year
$23,038.90; total expenditures $18,059.37,
leaving a balance of $4,979.59. Miss Bar
ker also compared the growth of tbe W.
C. T. U. by giving a statement of the
amounts paid by several states now to
the National W. C. T. U. and the amounts
paid seventeen years ago, when the Con
vention was held in Baltimore. Noon
tido Evangelistio services were conduc
ted by Mrs. M. M. Snoll, Mississippi Na
tional evangelist.
I must not forget here to mention the
noontide lunch thai was so bountifully
provided by the W. C. T. TJ. ladies of
Baltimore, to Its 500 delegates and visi
tors. They were all seated and severed
at one time lu the Immense basement
dinning rooms of the Hall which were
presided over by ladies from different
parts of the state of Maryland. This
elaborate luncheon which was given dur
ing the five days the Convention was
held, proved beyond a doubt the prover
bial hospitality of the people of Balti
more. The afternoon was taken up by reports
of Superintendents on Young woman's
work, Work among foreigners, Loyal
Tempereuce Legion, Bcientifio Temper
ance Instruction, Physical Culture, Nar
cotics, Sunday School work, Literature
and The Press. These aupurintondonts
were each allowed ten minutes for re
ports. I should like to comment ou
some of these excellent reports but it
would not leave me the room for a
glimpse at other parts of the convention
which is all I can hope to giye in this
brief sketch.
Mrs. Oriniaton Chaut, of Kuglaud, was
then introduced to the con volition, was
given a cordial greeting aud niado a few
remarks.
The first evening of the Coventlon was
given to addresses of welcome and re
sponses. After devotional exersisos the
ode of welcome, "Maryland my Mary
land" rang out its Inspiring welcome to
its guests within the slate limit. Miss
Willard regretted that the Governor of
Maryland had not been able to be pres
ent aud oiler a welcome in behalf of the
state. She spoke of tbe cordial welcome
of Gov. Hastings of Peun'a, who wel
comed the State Convention iu the name
of the homes, wive, mothers aud daugh
ters of his state, and that the W. C. T. U.
should ever hold him in kindly remem
brance. Mayor Latrobe ol Baltimore
was then introduced and in behalf of the
City extended a cordial greeting. After
bo had finished Miss Williard evi
dently well pleased with the Mayor's
welcome said "I consider myself a
judge of a Mayor's speech, having sam
pled them for twenty years, aud I con
sider this the best flavored, of all."
Tbo next oiie introduced was Kev.
Wm. Bartlott, representing Cardinal
Gibbons, who spoke a few words of
greeting, then read a letter from the Car
dinal, in which be complimented the
work of the V. C. T. U., that he consid
ered the Temperance Cause the most vi
tal subject of the day, as tbe greatest
number nf crimes can be traced to this
evil, aud that those wbo were laboring lu
the repression of this vice were among
the best benefactors to society and to the
home.
Mrs. liaalnp, President of tbe State
Union of Maryland, an. I Mrs. Kobtnson
of the Ciry Union, both brought cordial
greeting. At the conclusion of those re
marks the children of the I T. I or
Baltimore, who had previously marched
in, and were given seats on the platlorm,
sang their welcome son, after which
were given the responses. Tl special ad
dress given In response to the welcome
Was delivered by Mrs. Ella A. Hoole of
New York, followed by Mrs. Mary A.
Goodsleol TiOtiisianna, Mrs. Hnlen Rar
ker of HI. and Mrs. Ada W. Unruh of
Oregon, and lastly Mrs. Chant of Eng
land, who created much enthusiasm and
amusement by her eloquent and humor
ous address.
Saturday morning was devoted to re
ports of department superintendent.
A short discussion over proposed
amendments came next. The first
amendment to make vice president-at-large
a constitutional one was adopted.
The amendment to make secretary of
"Loyal Temperance Legion" a member
of executive committee, was laid over
with pending amendment, which also
provided that the National Superinten
dents should also become members of
executive committee.
Saturday evening was given to the
"Young Woman's Christian Temperance
Union." The program was varied and
interesting, and was conducted by Mrs.
Fninces J. Barnes, national supt.
On Sunday the pulpits were given
largely to the W. C. T. U. delegates and
in addition to the great orowdB at Music
Hall the churches were also thronged
with attentive listeners. In the after
noon It was estimated that 3,000 gathered
in Music Hall to hear the annual ser
mon preached by Mrs. Katharine Lent
Stevenson, of Mass., National Cor. Sec.
The temperence meeting at the hall In
tbe evening, presided over bv Miss Wil
lard was the culminating event of the
daw
Monday morning was again devoted to
report of superintendents followed bv a
Memorial service conducted by M"rs.
Clara Hoffman of Missouri. A picture
of Mrs. Mary T. Latbrop of Michigan
was brought to the front of the platform
and placed on an easel, hung with la
vender and white ribbons. The choir
sang the memorial hymn and "Mother"
Thompson prayed falteringlv. Mrs.
Hoffman now spoke of the fellcitv and
blessedness of those who had gone', that
they had, for their excelllent serv'ce
here, only been promoted to a higher
life. Two hours were- taken with this
impressive service and all hearts were
touched with its solemnity. 20 White
Ribbon workers were remembered in
this service. Mrs. Matilda B. Carse now
presented the work of the W.
T. P. A. of Chicago, affiliating with the
W. C. T. U and conducted entirely by
women. It does a regular printing and
publishing business, and issues three

of literature. Mrs. Carse also gave a
short report of the "Temple" which cot

it a big undertaking and were inclined to
be discouraged, but as the majority of the
W. C. T. U. women have never stopped
to study tbe meaning of the word, pro
pose to work on, until they have con
trol of the building which bas been ded
icated to their cause and their work.
Monday evening was termed "Benefit

spent an Lour at Mt. Vernon, visiting
the tomb of Washington, and the man
