She was one of Uie no blest specimens of American womanhood, and we trust that the citizens of this com munity will unite in doing honor to her memory. Tho entertainment given by tho bor ough schools in celebration of Washing ton's birthday on Friday evening last was a pronounced success. The court house bus soldom been more crowded than on this occasion, and the immence audience was most royally entertained. The feat ure of the evening was the business carn ival, nearly every business place in the town being represented, all of which were unique and many quite grotesque. The music by the mandolin club was an enjoyable feature. In fact there was noth ing lacking that would please. A nice sum was netted which will be devoted to the purchase of a new Hag for the school building. It is gratifying to learn from the man agers of the mantle works that,as a result of the little write-up in our recent indus trial edition, they have already received scores of letters and requests for cata logues and further information of the out-put of faoir industry, and they have been put in correspondence with large dealers from all sections of the country We repeat, it is gratifying, for anything that brings business to this excellent in stitution is a direct and lasting benefit to our town aud its citizens, and should and docs receive the encouragement of all. We hope to see the company doubte its force of mechanics within the noxt three months, aud it will have to do so if their rate of Increase in orders continues. It has leaked out that a company of boys whose home is at Endeavor had narrow escape from a horrible death a few days since. It appears that they or ono of their numbar on Election day took some sticks of dynamite belonging to tho town ship from the township house aud a day or so afterward went down on Wood's is land above East Hickory in the river to make use of the explosive. They built a lira and laid the dynamite around the fire to thaw out. Just about the time the stuff had been nicely placed around the fire one of the boys saw a red sguirrel and gave chase to it. The squirrel went into a hole aud he called the other boys to assist him iu ferreting the squirrel from its hiding place. They all respond ed aud wiien far enough from the lire to be oat of serious danger the dynamite exploded, throwing the boys off their feet but injuring no one. The W.C.T.U. of West Hickory held a short memorial service in honor of Miss Willard after their regular meeting last Thursday. The meeting had been an nouueed publicly, aud quite a numbei of the church people came to show their re' spect for the great soul of our departed leader. No program had been made out, but eaoh wouiau brought to tho meeting something concerning the lile and work of Miss Willard. Several sketches of her life were read emphasizing a different trait in her strong character. One lady read, as peculiarly appropriate to the oc casion, the beau'iful poem beginning .' "They are gathering homeward, one by one, and we lollow that way. Through out the whole exercise ran the thonulit Ourltraderis gone, and more responsibil ity now rests upon us, the rank aud lile of the temoerauoe irmv.

JCIKiE ni MU.ES II. X0YES DEAD. Hon. Charles H. Noyes, President Judgo of the Warren and Forest District, diod at his home in Warren, Pa., Friday evening. Fob. 25, 1898, at 0:30 o'clock. The sudden and unexpected death of Judge Noyes has proven s shock to the peeple of this entire sretion of the State, hore the eminent jurist was so well known and so revered and loved for his sterling honesty and thorough upright ness. His trouble seemed to come from a complication of stomach and liver com plaints, and he had been confined to his bed enly a fow days. An eminent Phila delphia physician had been called iu eon- ultation and everything possible done to tide the Judge over this attack, but in vain. The Warron Mirror pays this high and just tribute to the memory of him whom we had all learned to love and honor. "Hushed now in that stillness that knows no waking hore, tolling us that the spirit has fled to the blessed eternity, lies all that Is mortal of our beloved fellow Charles II. Noyes, The convul sive sob will come and a leaden cloud settles over tho heart as these sad words are told. "Judge Noyes was born in Marshall, Michigan, July 20, 1849. His parents died while ho was yet a lad, and ho bo gan the battle of lile almost unaided. Possessed with the soul of genius as his whole life had demonstrated he manfully overcamo tho obstacles in his pathway and achieved for himself an exalted po sition of influence and honor. "Leaving the school room when scarce ly a dozen years of age, he, nevertheless, by his own diligence and ability, rose to the rank of collegian. Never idle, he iu early life learned the trades of a printer and druggist, taking hold of whatever come for him to do. 'He soon alter hia majority, com menced the study of law and was admit ted to the bar of Warren county, Deo. 12, 1871. He formed a partnership with Ju nius R. Clark, which continued until Mr. Clark retired from the practice of law about 1880, whon he became associat ed with Hon. L. D. Wetmore and later in 18S2 with W. D. Ilinckloy, Esq. 'His unquestioned ability gained for hltn the deserved reputation as one of the ablest members of the bar, and until be was elected to the bench bis services were sought in every important litiga tion. 'Combinod with great critical insight and penetration of legal questions, clear and exhaustive exposition in argument, he possessed the power to carefully and thoroughly investigate every subject of his inquiry; and tbese characteristics gave him wide distinction both as a law yer and judge. "He was prominent in bis party. In 1877 he was elected Burgess of Warreu borough. In 1882 ho was a candidate for state senator and overcame the Republi can majority in Warren county, though defeated in the district. "In 1884 he was a membor of the Dem ocratic National committee and was one of the few Pennsylvania delegates who early voted for Cleveland and assisted in his nomination. "In the fall of 1S90 he was elected Pres ident Judge ol the 37th Judicial district and entered on his duties Jan 1, 18!ll. In 18115 ho was one of the Democratic candi dates to the newly formed Superior court "In 1888 he was again a delogate to tho National Democratic convention. "In all his political cai oor he was tear- lossly honest to bimsolf and his convic lions and when a decision was onco reached his conscience did not permit mm to do misunaorstood and so more than once he announced himself as op posed to positions taken by his party, notably in the Greenback campaign and the Presidential struggle in iHM. "This is but a barren statement of the life of Judgo Noyes. "In every department of public inter est, in social, intellectual and religious life he was exceedingly active and among the formost in doing those things which told lor the bettering of tho community. "Of his immediate relatives surviving are his afflicted wife, his two daughtors, Lucia and Helen, and three sous, Uar nott, Charles and Morgan, and his two brothers, George L. aud Ben F. Noyes. "This stricken housenold have the sympathy and tho love of this communi ty. We join our tears witli theirs and wish for them tho consolation afforded from Him alone who can in their hour aid. "Much as we have all admired and loved tho noble nature and life of our de parted brother, little did we know how Wifely his work was interwoven iu this community, aud what a great part he served for us." The funeral was held from the late res idence of the deceased at 3 o'clock Mon day afternoon, aud was attended by au immence concourse of friends from far and near, upward of one hundred attor neys boiug present. The officiating cler gymen were Rev. E. F. Edmunds, D. I)., of the First M. E. church and Rev. A. R. Taylor of Trinity Memorial Episcopal church.

Hullngs, a former rxsldent of Tionpsta. where she lived with her then husband, Wm. Hullngs, seven or eicht years ago, moving from hereto Alleghe ny. Tho shooting Is somewhat of mys tery, Mrs. Jacobs claiming It was awl dental, while Jacobs, in whose hands the revolver was at ths time of tha shooting, Is locked up awaiting tho result of the woman's Injuries. She was taken to the Allegheny Uennral hospital directly after tho shooting, and at last accounts was living, with s chance of recovering. An account of the aftHir published Wednes day morning says : Mr. and Mrs. F. C. McCrorv, ot 37 An derson street, Allegheny, at whose house the shooting occurred, has set conflicting reports as to the tragedy aright. They said Jacobs and his supposed witla came to room with them about five months ago and never had had sny quarrels. On Monday even.ng Jacobs arrived home about $10:30 o'clock and in moving a fold ing bed tumbled It over and broke It. He summoned the McCrorys and laugh ingly showed what he had done. They sat and talked until midnight when Ja cobs and McCrorv went out to a saloan. got a drink and some cigars and rsturnod to tho room. Jacobs was joking McCro ry about boing a temperance man and turning to his wife said, "Mart, have you done away with my revolver?" Mrs. Jacobs replied that it was still In tho dresser drawer. Jocobs laid his cigar on the mantle and pulling open the drawer drew out the revolver. He faced around toward his wife and Mrs. Mc Crory, who were sitting near him, with the revolver pointing to the floor. Just then the weapon exploded and at the same Instant Mrs. Jacobs sank upon her knees on the floor. She got upon her feet immediately aud McCrory, ordering the women to leava the room, seized the revolver from Jacobs aud followed the womon into the dining room at the same time closing the door upon Jacobs. Then Mrs. Jacobs discovered that she was wounded and walked up stairs, to Mrs. Lillian, Ritter's room, where she was placed upon a lounge. Meanwhile Mo- Crory rushed out upon the street and not finding any policeman fired the revolver twice in the air. Olllcsr Peter Orassmau came running up and McCrory took him into tho house and explained the case to him. Jacobs was found standing as if dazed. McCrory summoned Dr. W. M. Babb, who had the wounded woman to Hie Allegheny General hospital. About 4 o'clock it was thought she was dying and she made a sworn statement before Alderman J. T. McAuley, exhonsrating ber husband from all blame. She de clared that the shooting was accidental aud that there had been no quarrel. Jacobs has been sent to Jail to await the result of the woman's Injuries. His fath er, John A. Jacobs, and three brothers, Charles, Edward and William, reside on tho South Side, the father living at Twenty-fifth street and Cary alloy. At the hospital it was found that the 32-calibe'r built had entered the woman's right shoulder and lodged in the right lung. No attempt has been made to re move It. Yesterday and last night Ja cobs' frtlier visited the hospital and was permitted to see the injured woman. Her sistor, Miss Ida Rutf, arrived Wed nesday from Philadelphia and was ac companied by the injured woman's son, aged U years, by her first husband, W.W. Hillings, an oil well driller of Sisters ville. Jacobs was removed from Allegheny Central police station to the fail yesterday afternoon to await the result of the wo man's injuries. Ue maintains silence re garding the manner n which the shoot ing occurred. F. C. McCrory and his wife, who were in tho room at the time of tho shooting, declare that it was accidental ; that ths couple got along well aud had not been quarreling 011 the night previous to the shooting.
