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

Three reasons. Why? The right
goods, at tho right prices, at the right
place, explain why we are so busy.
Never in the history of our store have
we beeu better able to give you just what
you want. (Juloss you're married (in
your buying) to some store, we do not
believe you cau give our prices five min

that we save you money. Doubtless
others will tell you the same, but what
other store in Forest Co. dares put before
you such au array of prices aud urge
comparison with those of other stores.
More than ever will our policy of under
buy, undersell, cash down and one pi Ice
to all, be our motto. We are the keeu
edge cutters and you will always find our
prices hewn down to the lowest level.

persons aud 12,000 tons went to St.
Michaels aud the balance to Dyea, Skag
way, Juneau and Wrangel. Nearly 300
men have returned from St. Michaels
aud 2,500 from lower Alaskan ports.

son, of Lyon Center, Ilf., is subject to
attacks of croup. Mr. Johnson says he
is satisfied that the timely use of Cham

in the drug business, a member of tho
firm, of Johnson Bros, of that place; and
they handle a great many patent medi
