In sending out the ballots for the an nual election of the Board of officers of the Pennsylvania division of the L. A.

For the privilege of having a small slip advertising a certain mBke ol lamp enclosed with the ballots the manufacturers of the same will pay the entire bit! lor postage, amounting to about f2.V). Court convenes next week, with one case on the civil list. On what the crim inal list may dovolope depends the length of the session, but appearances point to a short one as usual. The trial of Koe nig for the then of Mr. Gaul's horse Is expected to be a short one, and any other cases on the docket that may be tried are of a less serious character still, bo that about two days will likely wind up the business before court. The report comes from Paris that Il luminating gas is taking tho place of air to a considerable extent, for tire inflation, among French riders. An ingenious mechanic over there has put upon the market a tube and stop-cock which may te fitted to any gas jot. The gas is turned on, and presto, the tire is hard and tight in a jiffy. Racing men, it is said, find that gas thus used makes their wheels buoyant and lighter to a perceptible ex tont. -A number of the farmers of Gorman Hill have organized a company and will erect a creamery on Henry Ledebur's place, about six miles from Tionesta. Such an enterprise ought, and doubtless will, prove a lucrative investment for those engaged In It, and will afford a good market for the dairy products of the Bur rounding neighborhood. Every farmer within a convenient radius of the new in dustry should give it his hearty support, and by so doing It will be made a lasting benefit to everybody In the viciuity. The new telephone line was com pleted and connection made with this end last Friday, thus connecting Marien- ville with Tionesta, with McDonald's corners, Tylersburg, Golinza and Ne braska as intervening stations. Much conversation has been carried on over the lino since, a phone having beeu placed in the Rural House. The line works splen didly. The work ot connecting up the town is going on now and within the next ten days will be pretty nearly com pleted, weathor permitting. The line to the two Hickories will be strung as fast as possible. - The period for a lively display of meteors or shooting stars Is approaching, The earth encounters the belt of Leonids on the 13th and 14th of November. Once In 33 years this display is remarkable. There was a wondorful display of falling stars in this country Nov. 12, 1833, aud in Europe in 1800. It is thought the. earth will meet the advance guard of the 1899 display this year and next year The constellation Leo, from which these shooiers radiate, does not rise until about midnight this month, bo that the later the watch is kept up the greater the proba bllity ol seeing the meteors. Newspaper men who run ajob office in connection with their paper have been having a pretty hard time in competing with the government in printing en velopes. Business men who have been in the habit of using government atampod envelopes will note the fact that so soon aa the present contract for print ing runs out you can get envelopes printed at your home office only, as the government will no longer stay in the business of printing return cards on en velopes. Also by a recent ruling your letters will be held 30 days unless you have printed on the envelope the time you wish it held. Ex. 1 One of tho most entertaining and In structive discourses on foreign mission ary work ever heard in this place, was delivered to a large audience at the Pres byterian church last Sabbath evening by Rev, Mr. Bannerman, who lately return ed from the African field. Mr. Banner man Is the only one of five now living who went to the west coast of the Dark Continent but a lew years ago, and his description of the work and the hard ships necessarily endured to carry it on is a most pathetic and Interesting story. We understand It is the intention to have him continue his talk some time In the near future in this plpce, and should he do so no one should fail to hear him. Only a few years ago not over two decades Clarion county bad three or four of the largost and livelhst towns in Western Pennsylvania. Edinburg, which is now a mere hamlet, was then a town of 20,000 people, teeming with life and activity and wickedness. Its postofilce did more business than that of Allegheny city, aud Its policemen had a much livelier time of it. Turkey City, which Is now no more, was a town as large as Big Run. St. Petersburg, which is now barely able to hold its place on the map, was full of people and hustle and wealth. And Elk City, which could boast of a population of 10,000 people, aud a dance bouse of which Ben Hogan was proprietor, Is now as completely ob literated as ancient Babylon. Where the town once stood there are fields and groves. A few 40-barrel oil wells made the town, and when they were pumped dry, Elk City faded from view. I'unxtu tawney Spirit, Three reasons. Why?
