quite similar iu their hideousness, and

Evorybody knows that we have been
from time Immemorial buying "quart"
baskots of strawberries and other fruits,
aud getting a little more than a pint, es
pecially when the season is young and
the supply precarious. A new law, just
signed by the governor, prescribes a
standard si.o for the fruit baskets. Man
ufacturers of baskets must plainly stamp
as "short" baskets or boxes of less than
standard capacity and any marketman
who sells undersized baskets of fruit not
stamped "short" is liable to arrest and a
fine of $25.
It now transpires that the throe men
who have been suspected ol murdering
William Riser, near Elk City, are entire
ly innocent of the charge. The three men,
Harry Blair, Austin Hess and a man
named Gordon are able to prove their
whereabouts at ttie time of tho murder,
and it is the accepted theory that the real
murderers bave made good their escape.
The murder is said to have taken place
on Friday night, although his body was
not discovered until Sunday morning.

A Very Much Mistaken Idea.
The cleaning of the Allegheny river of
ail hnags, sunken era it and or iior port
able obstructions will begin this month,
taking advantage of the season or low
water. Major Powell, who has charge,
sayg $15,000 will be expended in the
work. Ihis causes the Warren Mail to
remark that "the expending of the above
sum of money is like throwing it into
the river wasting it. Hotter put it on
the public roads, where it will do some
good and be a benefit to the people.
As a publio highway, the Allegheny is
all right in high water, but there isn't
much letl to rua.
We must differ with the Mail in its
opinion that "there isn't much left to run
on it," So far as Warren and other
points up the river are concerned this is
practically true, but from Hickory,
Tionesta and out of the Clarion river vas
quantities of lumber, timber and boats
are run whenever the riyer is navigable
for such. On the last run from Tionesta,
about six weeks ago not less than $50,000
worth of boats, barges and lumber were
floated to Pittsburg and found ready sale
at good figures. To day fully aa much
more is ready to start, but because of
rocks, snags, etc., In a low stage of wator
the money invested In this product is
tied up. 80 the money expended is not
"like throwing it in tho river," or wast'
ing it. On the contrary it is the most
sensiblo and profitable expenditure that
could bo made at this time and will bo for
many years yot to come. We'ro not
hibernating down hero, dear Mail, don't
you think. We're buihy as nailers.

Quite an accident occured uear West
Hickory the early part of last week.
Mrs. George Hood and Mrs. Warner, the
nurse who is caring for Mrs. Moulin in
ber long illness, went driving with a
horse an ' buggy. They crossed the
bridge and down toward Tionesta. On
their return they stopped just at the East
end of the new approach to the river
bridge to speak with some one. The
approach comes straight out from the
end of the bridge and where it reaches
tho river road is flanked by a fill guard
ed by an oblique abutment built of
square timber. From the top to the
bottom of this abutment is a distance of
eight or ton feet. A barbed wire fence
runs along not very ar from the part of
this abutment and at right anglos with
the approach. For some reason the
horse backed off this abutment, the horse
and the buggy with its occupants going
dowu together in an ugly heap. The
horse foil back on the buggy and how
tho labies escaped with their lives seems
a puzzle. The buggy was kicked and
smashed into kindling wood, and wbeu
the horse 0 erged be was divested of his
harness, but not much else the worse for
h's mishap. Mrs. Hood and Mrs. Warn
er were thrown out on the wire fence.
Their clothing was badly torn, but be

not hurt much.

Although those interentd iu discover
ing the murderers o.' the late William
Riser, of Elk City, have used their ut
most efforts to conceal the facts it is now
definitely known that the thieves secured
botween $9,000 and $10,000 as tliepriceof
their awful crime, says the Derrick. This
money was in bank notes ol a large de
nomination and was carried by the mur
dered man in a belt around his waist.
This belt never left him and few outside
of one or two relatives had any suspicions
of its existence unless it was one, or all
three, of the thieves.
Since 1873 William Riser, the murdered
man, had been taking in royalties from
oil produced upon his farm and also dur
ing this 26 years made several sales of
valuable timber and oil property. It whs
well known that the deceased was frugal
in his expenditures an .'when the safe in
his room was opened by experts and it
was learned that with the money in the
house and in tho safe, the total amount
recovered was ouly about $2,000, great
surprise was created among his neigh
bors who knew he was a man of much
more wealth. The most conservative of
his friends placed his wealth at from
$20,000 to $.10,000 and they concluded that
he had the remainder of the money iu
some bank. When the case was taken up
by tho detectives relatives who knew the
fact, but did not wish it generally known
stated that on the afternoon of the mur
der William Riser showed til's old belt
and placed in it two bills of $500 each,
gleshilly stating that he "had $10,0(10 in
tlie belt."
The object in concealing the fact that
the belt and fortune it contained had been
stolen by (bo thieves and murderers, whs
in the hope thai those men, believing
that the relatives had no suspicion of the
large amount of money taken, would he
come reckless in their expenditures and
thus give a clue that would lead to their
detection. It is also believed tbat the
magnitude of the sum taken would if
known have caused the detectives to hold
back in undertaking the job of chasing
the murderers and have caused them to
domain, a much larger teward than the
$1,000 offered by the heirs of the dead
man. With this stolen $10,000 at tlioir
disposal and the start they have been
given during the time neighbors and offi
cers were on a false scent the murderers
ould have placed the continent or ocean
between the scene of their crime and
themselves and the chances of their
being captured, since the great amount
ot money stolen has come to light, seems
verv slim.

About one month ago my child which
is fifteen mouths old, had an attack of di
arrhoea accompanied by vomit ng. I
gave it such remedies as are usually giv
en iu such cases, but as nothing gave re
lief, we rent for a physician and it was
under his care for a ween. At this time
th- child had been sick lor about ton days
and was having about twenty-rive opera
tions of the bowols every twelve hours,
and wo wero convinced 1 hut unless it
soon obtained relief it would not live.
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy was recommended, and I
decided to try it. I soon noticed a change
for the l etter : by its continued use a
coin;rlelo cure was brought about and it
is now perfectly healthy. (;. L. Hoggs,
