Tho Woman's edition of tho Oil City Derrick, Issued last Wednesday was no disappointment to the publio although the expectation of something great was present with all who had heard of the en terprise. It contained 32 pages of enter- tuinlng reading matter covering a wider range of subjects, and all treated in a manner at once creditable to the 70 or more ladies who had it in charge. The typographical appearance of the mam moth edition was very beautiful, and thore wasn't anything about it that was not strictly first class. Tho edition of 6,000 was quickly exhausted, and another edition of 3,500 had to meet the great do mand for the paper. The very many friouds of Roy G Brownell tu this section will be greatly pained to learn of the death of his wife, after a short illness on Saturday eveuing last, of puerperal fever.

She was aged about 24 years. The funeral took place on Monday, the interment being in Erie, tho former home of the deceased. Wo hope Mr. Brownell may find some comfort In tho thought that all his friends in this place sympathize with him sin corely in bis hour of great sorrow. W.'H.

Mrs. Louise Doretlia Human, died at the home of her son, Henry Kaman German Hill, on Friday evening, Feb, 14. 1890. Mrs. Kaniau was born in Iloltensen, Hanover, Germany, May 6th 1822, aud wai therefore aged 73 years, 8 months and 0 days at the time of her doath. She name to America in 1852, and lor many years bus resided on tho farm whore she died. Her ailments were rheumatism and heart disease, from which she had boou a sufferer for many years, and which finally caused her death. She bore her sufferings patiently to the end and was tenderly cared for by her two sons, and daughter. She was good christian woman, highly respected by all her neighbors and acquaintances, Funeral services were conducted by Rev, Mr. MoAninch on Monday, the inter niont taking place iu Mt. Zion Lutheran cemetory. The country is wonderfully wrought up over the apparent succobs of Prof Roentgen's new process of photograph ing the interior of opaque bodies. Pic tures can be made through wood and metals by its uso as has been demon strated beyond question. The bones aud internal organs of tho body may in a like manner be photo- graphed. By a new agent which the professor has discovered, opaque bodies are rendered as translucent as glass This discovery is fraught with wonder ful possibilities. It is now iu a crude sUto, but when properly developed it will be of inestimable value to the med ical profossion, as by its use diseases o the internal organs may be accurately located, and an absolutely correct diag nosis can be made without delay aud without the use of the kuifu.

Mrs. Daisy lola Morcilliott, wifo of Jacob Morcilliott and daughter of A. K. and Marietta Shlpe died very unexpec tedly on Saturday evening, February 8th, 18S16, after two days sickness. Deceased was an afl'ootionatn daughter, a loving wifo and a kind neighbor. Her neighbors ail speak of her as one in whom goodness seemed to be natural. She was a young woman of great Kind ness of heart and almost unbounded patience. These traits endeared her to a large circle of acquaintances. Mrs. MerciMiott will be sadly missed by a sorrowing husband, a little daughter about ten months old, parents and bro thers in tho old home that is now dark ened, and by the entire community of friouds. She was a inombor of the M. E, church, which was filled by a sympa thetic audience at tho funeral. She was also a member of tho L. O. T. M., which society was out in a body to follow the loved remains to tho grave. Tho K. O. T. M. and P. O. S. of A. wore also in at tendance in a body, decorated with the omblomsof mourning. Daisy lola Shlpe was botn in Columbia county, Ia., June 14th, 1871, and was twonty-four years, Beyen months and twenty-four dnys old at the time of her doath. Marienville Express. HOOD roads. Tlio subject of good roadi will con tinue to be a leading one with our poople until some system shall have bcon adop ted whereby the State will bo ahle to as sist tho local authorities in constructing permanent public highways, and the great expense of moving crops and other haulage, not to speak of tho Inconven ience of bad roads in tho ordinary inter course betweon the residents of any community. As Pennsylvania is practi cally without any system of location or construction of highways, what other stales liavo done in this direction be comes a matter et interest, and may serve as a guide in formulating legisla tion on this subject. Tho law under whicli tho State of New Jersey sets aside tho sum of $100,000 an nually for the construction of permanent public roads lias been In operation two years. Under the terms of the act State aid is extended sololy for the construc tion of macadamized roads and only to tho extent of one-third the cost, the county being required to pay the other two-thirds. It has been found that fifty miles of road por year can be construc ted on this plan, tbo average cost beiug $6,000 por mile. In tho two vears about one hundred miles of stone road had been constructed, mostly iu five coun ties. EJTlie most encouraging results of the New Jersey road law are a hundred miles of permanont road and an increas ing public appreciation of the advantages of good roads. At first only a few coun ties were willing to assume the cost of trying tho experiment. The number has grown In two years from five to fourteen, or two-lhirds of the counties in the state, and it is evident that public opinion will demand a large increase of the annual State appropriation, which up to this time has not exceeded $100,000. The success of this initial experiment in the building of permanent roads by the State across the Deloware should furnish a lesson to Pennsylvania legislators and lead to the enactment of a law that will encourage and foster good roads in this State.
