A young wlilo.w recently put up a costly monument to her late husband, and inscribed upon it "My grief is so great that I cannot hear it."

Of the 2,471 school districts in this State, outsido of Philadelphia, there aro 537 districts which pay less school tax than they receive out of tho State appro priation. Many of these districts roceivs almost double tho amount from the State that they collect by taxation and some receive more than double, while a con Bidorablo number of districts levy r.o school tax at all, depending entirely up on tho State appropriation to keep up their schools. Only four counties in the state stand out as finning examples for their sister counties, having no districts within their limits iu which a greater amount is received from the State than they raiso by taxation, and our own lit tles county of Forest is one of thorn ; tho other three are Allegheny, Delaware and McKean. We have beon asked frequently about the now scalp bounty law passed at the last session of the legislature. The law is now in force and places a premium of So on wild cats, fl on red or gray foxes aud 50 cents oil minks. In order to so euro this premium, the animal itself or its outiro pelt, from tip to nose, must be presontod to a justice or alderman and made affidavit where and by whom the animal M as killed. Tho ofllcor will then cut off the ears and burn them, giving the person a certificate of the amount due him, who, upon presentation of the same to the county commissioners, will receive an order for the amount upon tho county treasurer. The oftlcor who gives the certificate is to receive 25 cents for his services out of the county treasury. Any person who shall willfully and fraudu icniiy couoci any premiums shall, upon conviction thereof, pay a fine not exceed ing J500 and undergo an imprisonment in the county jail uotoxoeodiug ono year or both.

The State Hos pital for the Insane at Warren, Pcnna., was constructed and organized for the care and troatment of the Insane of the counties of Warren, Crawford, Erie, Mercer, Venango, Clarion, Forest, Mc Kean, Elk and Cameron, and Potter was afterward added by Legislative Act. The nrmbor of insane from these counties on the first of August, 1SW, was fifiS; private patients from ditrnront sec tions of the commonwealth, 83 ; from 24 counties outside of tho district, 204 ; mak ing tho total lOl.'i j showing a very much overcrowded hospital. The capacity of the hospital when constructed was con sidered to be for 700 patients. Tho law requires that "while the finances of the State do not permit ample provision for all cases of insanity, recent cases shall have preference over those of long standing." Inorderto mooi this re quirement of the law, it is rospoctfully and earnestly requested that before mak ing arrangements to briug a patient to the hospital, a statement be sent to tho superintendent, giv ing tho sex j ago; length of time insane; tho first symptoms, dating back n t long er than six months; any previous at tacks ; any complications that may exist, such as paralysis, epilepsy, or alcohol ism. No patient will bo admitted unless these requirements are fully complied with; tho question simply being whether this provision of the law shall be com plied with, or the hospital completely closed to any further admissions, a d the closing of the hospital is not a thing to bo desired. John Curwen, M. I). Superintendent. Dentil of Lloyd Fayette Bloomtleld. Loyd Fayette Bloomtield was born May 7, 1877, and died July 24, 1897, agod 20 yc nrs, 2 months and 17 days. Deceased was born in Crawford county. Pa., noar Coutroville, in Athens Town ship. Whon about a year old bis mother bringing him with her removed into Warren county, making her home on Kelly Hill. Wheu ton years of age the family came to Trunkoyvillo where they have since lived, ana where he died, as abovo. In these places he had grown up toward manhood, a quiet, well-behaved, boy and young man. He was honost, and had tho disposition that won friends Ho was a "home-loving" and a "mother- loving boy and young man, and pre forreAliomo and the society of his moth er to the too frequont practice of running out aud loafing around of nights. He una mane no great noise in the world as yet, God knows what might have been, but nevertheless he had a place that he filled, aud in some hearts tliero is a sore grief, and in his own community there is a sadness, for lie is missed his place is vacant he is gone. He never had been very strong. About two years ago he had an attack that for a time looked quite serious. threatening to turn Into consumption. From this ho reeovorod and just before the sickness of which he died seemed stronger thau he had ever been. Early in June last be had sufl'ored an attack from which he recovered so as to be about and to work somo, and from which no serious consequences weie apprehend ed. Two weeks later he became bad again and gradually grow worse now and then seeming better hopes being entertained at times of bis recovery and on Satur day, July 24, at 11:45 a. m., he died. Nearly two weeks before his death he was soundly converted to God, It was on a Monday morning; and from that hour until ho diod his experience was a delightful one. The natural desiro, un der tho circumstances, to get well, and especially for his mother's sake, was strong, but the anticipation of going "to bo Willi Christ" was to him, "far bettor," and his death-bed was a scone of glory and triumph. It was another of those evidences, and a very clear one, too, that the soul, iu its great crisis, gives that the great things written in God's Book are true. Funeral services conducted by Rev. J. E. Hillard were held at Fagundus on Monday afternoon following his death. A largo congregation was present. The body was laid to rest in the cemetery near the M. E.
