St An Last Hickory friend writes that

were treated to ono oi the most enjoyable
social Hops of the season last Wednesday
evening, given by our popular order
uere, tho Jtnights of the Maccaboes. The
music furnished by Duplanti's orchestra
oi iiiusvuio, was nrst class and was
thoroughly enjoyed by all. The supper
prepared by Sir Knight Church was nil
any Maccaben or their friends could ask.
And the various committees all looked
after the comfort of their guests of the
evening. I say, hurrah for the Macca
bees of Hickory.
Now that the 6ame season is about
over there will bo less accidents chroni
clod from the careless handling of fire-
arms, but this will not diminish the num
ber of sad accidents, for the time has
arrived when tho small boy, whose leis
ure is mostly given to coasting on the
sidewalks, will run into a fence or lamp
post and break (lis collar bone or a limb
or else run into pedestrians who are com
pelled to be constantly on tho lookout
when near street crossings. Coasting and
skating on the walks by the children of
this placo has become such a popular
pastime that it is an unendurable nuis
ance and should bo stopped before some
one is seriously injured.

A Correspondent on (he Institute.
Your issue of last week serves notice
on your many readers of what may be
expected at the Farmer's Institute, Dec.
10-11. The objects of those annual Insti
tutes are very broad along tho line of in
struction, and we only wonder why we
wVe so long In learning to appreciate
their real benefits.
In looking over the program as out
lined last week, we are unable toconceive
of ono individual who is not in some way
luterosuid in our farmers'; institutes.
We are certaiuly all interested iu farm
ing, either directly or indirectly. We are
also interested in the matters of public
interest, such as our roads.schools.homes,
etc. If we desire or expect to make ad
vancement iu those dopartmonta of
knowledge, wo must necessarily make
use of the means within our reach in
order that we do advance properly. If it
were not for the brain powor as well as for
the interchanging of views brought Into
requisition in the recent past, the rolling
of the reaper and the rattling of the mow
ing machine would be unheard by us, and
although we as a nation stand in the front
rank of civilization and commendable
advancement along tho line of comfort and
happiness, we are not to suppose that the
highest point possible to attain is already
attained by us.
Light, as in the material creation was
the first substanco created beforo the
chaos was reduced to beauty and order,
so in the intellectual world, education, or
light In the understanding, is the eom-
menewment of every process that loads to
improvement, comfort and happiness in
tho world. Why should we not as farm
ers, and thoso interested, and all are, b-
come inoio interested in the march to
wards future improvomeul inourcounty.
Conio,lct us talk togcthorabout our farms,
our stock, roadk, schools and that which
makes our humus prosperous ami happy
by porpetual advancement, etc.
Now a word for the gentlemen sent to
us by the Commonwealth to discuss those
subjects with us at our Institutes. They
are not, as many suppose, men who have
acquired their knowledge from books,
etc., but they are men who are farmers,
having a practical know ledge of farming;
men who kuow by experience that more
bruin power and loss physical power will
bring about better results on the farm.
Trudy, we are anxious and hope to see
a greater degree ofintorost manifested iu
our coming institute, and we certainly
have no cause for compluiut over the past.

l'oor Old Ml hole.
The barn on the farm of E. O. Twitch
ell.of Pithole was dostroyod bv fire early
Sunday morning, but, fortunately the
flames were discovered iu time to allow
Mr. Twitched, who is postmaster at Pit
hole to save his live stock. The barn was
tho property of the Homan heirs and had
been leased by Postmaster Twitcholl.and
theie Is no doubt but that the fire was
del iboratply started by some enemy of
tho postmaster. The structure contained
50 tons of hay and straw, 120 bushels of
oats and 100 bushels of buckwheat, all of
which wore a total loss. The barn was
insured for il00, but the contents which
Mr. Twiteholl values at ftioo or more
were not insured.
More than ordinary interest centers in
this tire from the fact that out or the hun
dreds of resldonoes, hotels, business
blocks and other buildings, which in Its
day mada Pithole the star attraction in
the oil region and one ol the most noted
in this country of mushroom towns, this
barn and house occupied by the owner,
Postmaster Twiteholl, were the only two
that remain that were in every day use.
Part of tho farm on which the oats, hay
and buckwheat were raised last season by
Mr. Twltchell was once laid out with
streets and was the scene of wonderful
activity and enormous financial trans
actions. There are still a few dilipidated
buildings and foundations remaining, but
It requires a guido and one familiar witli
the old scones to find thorn, aud what few
structures remain are not fit lor habita
tion. And this is what remains of a town
which at one time as the reports of the
postolllce department show, had one of
the largest postoftlces in the Western part
of Pennsylvania. Derrick.
