ways been in good health aud was un
usually robust for one of ber years, but
a short time ago caught a severe cold
which resulted in la grippe and caused
her death. She was born in Germany
aud came from Lancaster county to this
vicinity over fifty years ago with her
husband aud lias resided near where she
died ever since and lias always held the
esteem of her acquaintances. She was a
sister of Mr. Adam Emert of German
Hill and was well known aud respected
in this immediate neighborhood. Be.
sides her husband, who is past 00 years
of ago, she leaves four sous and four
daughters to mourn her loss. The fun
eral was held iu the Lutheran church

conducted ty Rev. Wonders. It was one
of the largest fuuerals ever known iu
that viciuity, over sixty sleighs tilled
with people accompanying the remains
to their last resting place iu the Wolf
burviug crouud which is near the borne
whero she bad so lonji resided.
The weather for the past three days

and has been rather hard on the snow,
but a little more of the beautiful fell yes
terday and sleds are still running. The
number of ties being shipped irom this
place does not seem to Indicate that the
timber Is ail gone, as some people think.
Considerable potty stealing has been
going on lately and cellars, chickencoops

taking about forty of them to Nebraska

had more "con sarnod" trouble getting
the old "kids" together and making
them behave themselves after they got
started, than anyone can imagine.
Mr. Charles Newton Hood, the popu
lar poet, author and humorist, is to ap
pear in readings from his own work, at

Feb. 23, under the Joint auspices of the
Y. P. S. C. E. and the Epworth League.

as a writer of known merit and as an
accomplished reader, and the people of
Tionesta should see to it that he is greeted
by a full house, as the net receipts will
go tor the benefit of the societies under
whose auspices he is coming.
Why don't tho borough authorities
have a street light placed on Bridge
Btreot, midway between Elm street and
the bridge? That is the most dismal
street in towD and Just now the light is
needed so that pedestrians can see to
crawl over the ice and snow on the walk
on that street. We don't know what the
people would do if it was not for the or
dinance that compels (?) the property
holders to koep the sidewalks clear of
snow and ice. We've got an excellent
lot of municipal legislators. Wonder
what the two new ones will do.
The Christian Endeavor societies of
Oil City and vicinity will go to Tionesta
on next Friday evening by special train,
leaving here at 7 o'clock sharp. Those

Y. fe P. company, but it is thought that
twice that number will attend. The fare

cents. Derrick. Tbe members of the
Tionesta society and their friends will
entertain tbe visitors at lunch after the
Friday evening meeting. Delogatos from
Hickory. Marienvillc, Redclyffe and
other sections of the county are also ex

Landers fe Wyman of this place have
just closed a deal with the Minnesota Oil
Co., of St. Paul for the purchase of a tract
of land in Allegheny Twp., Venango Co,
The tract contains 134 acres, 60 acres of
which are covered With oak and pine
timber. This same piece of laud was
conveyed in 1865 to Wm. Windom (late
Sec. of Treas. under Pres. Harrison) for
the Minnesota Oil Co. at a consideration
of $65,000. The price paid by Landers fc
Wyman was $2,100. This Bbows consid
erable of a discrepancy in the estimated
value of land in this section during the
early oil excitement and tho present
ti me.
The spring election was pulled off as
per schedule yesterday, and everything
was very quiet. The voters took proper
action and voted for the best men, conse
quently the entire Republican ticket was
elected, which was expected, as that par
ty is largely in the ascendancy, both iu
the borough and county. Following are
the officers elected : Burgess, K. C.
Heath ; Council, J. T. Dale, W. F. Blum;
School directors, Patrick Joyce, Leonard
Agnew; Collector, Frank P. Amsler;
High Constable, W. L. Hunter; Judge
of Election, Jerry Birtcil; Inspector of
Election, J. R. Chadwick ; Overseer of
Poor, J. R. Osgood ; Auditor, F. S.;Hun-
ter.
Constable W. L. Hunter had a poser
on Monday morning. There is a borouch
ordinance compelling tramps who apply
for lodging in the lockup to break stone
for a certain time to pay for their lodging
and breakfast On Sunday night there
were throe weary wanderers who wanted
a place to sleep and one of them was a
woman. When the scheJuled time for
the stone breaking exercises arrived Mr.
Hunter was in quite a quandry to know
what to do with tbe hobo in petticoats.
After a moment's thought he remarked :
"I guess we will let you off this time.
You can just take a waltz across tho
bridge, but don't show up in this boautl
ful burg again or you will have an op
portunity to display your ability to
swing the sledge."
Fire destroyed the barn belongiug to
Nathaniel Emert, who lives ontheShultz
farm, about two miles up Hunter run
from this place, last Saturday. None of
the family were at home when the fire
started, but neighbors saw thesmokoand
arrived at the scene in time to save the
stock and a part of the feed in the barn.
One cow was quite badly burned and the
hay and barn wero a total loss, with no
Insurance. Mr. Emert had just finished
paying for the farm and was ex
pecting to make some improvements on
his house during the coming summer
had it not been for this misfortune. No
cause can be attributed for the starting
of the fire and Mr. Emert says that he
does not know that he has an enemy in
world, conseriuentlv does not think that
it was of incendiary origin.
