There Is hope for school Ik's, wheth
er they aro bright or dull. Oeorgo Dowey
barely got through the Naval Acadomy
at the foot of bis class, while Capt. Ober
liu Carter passed West Point with the
higbost honors ever given to a cadet.
Both achieved distinction, but in widely
different directions. Dowoy is an Admi
ral and the husband of a milionairess.
Carter succeeded in embezzling about
1,500,000 and Is now undergoing Impris
onment in the penitontiary.
At a meeting of those interested in
securing a course of lectures for this place
during the approaching winter held last
Wednesday evening a committee was
appointod to look the matter up and as
certain whether sufficient uumber ol sub
scribers could be secured to guarantee
success. This committee has had in cir
culation a paper for that purpose, and
has met with fair success. It remains for
the citizens to say whether they want the
eutortainment or not, and the way to do
it is to subscribo when the opportunity is
presonted.
After all the moteorio shower didn't
happen last week. At any rate no man
heioabouts got even a glimpse of any
thing resembling a shooting star that any
body has heard of, and tho probabilities
are that the show was a fake. The wisr
acres tell us now that the a flair was
billed too far ahead, and that next year
is the one when they will make their ap
pearance That may be the case but this
journal refuses to advertise any more
snido performances. They must eotno
with better recommendations next time.

Others again talk In aloud, fierce voice as
if they imaginod they were shouting to

natural conversational tone of voice with
distinct enunciation, is what Is required.

The last of the summer's output of
barges at the Lawrence A Smearbaugh
yards at Hiakory wore started for Pitts
burg last Saturday. Thero were rive of
them and there wore fifteen men aboard.
The extras were not river hands, but
barge builders in charge of Mr. Carson,
the contractor, who had taken the men
along to finish this particular fleet of
barges, they being of a special design to
be used in the local transportation of coal
about Pittsburg. They aro longer and
narrower than tho common bargo and
will bo decked over as they are afloat, tho

The full story of tho "capture of Frank
Major, now in the' Moadvillo jail for
complicity In tho Titusville robberios
and shooting, and which has not yet been
toid in print, is worthy of publication,
says the Meadvillo Tribune. It also indi
cates the man who waited on Major when,
ho called at Wood A Co.'s store at Grand
Valley, as possessed of considerable nerve
and what Is ordinarily termed "horse
sense." Major was bare headed and said
ho had lost his hat. Ho wanted to buy-
one. The clerk suspecting he was one of
the escaped burglars, managed to get a
look to a young man who was lounging
in tho store that was understood, and tho
young man, watching bis opportunity,
wont out for help. To kill time the clork
showed Major soveral hats that were too
large for him, then took him up stairs,
where ha had "somothing that would suit
him." By tho time tho right hat had
been found several men wore standing
carelessly about the front of tho store
Thoy parted as Major parsed out, aud
grabbed him so quick that his revolver
was rendered useless, although he had
his hand on it in his coat pocket.

Editor Smith ot tho Punxsutawney
Spirit announces in his last issuo that
within a week or two a daily paper will
be issued from that office Ho also inti
mates that its ruccess and permanency
will depend largely upon how the people
will appreo ate aud patronize the new
venture. So far as tho editorial and bus
iness management go thi success of the
daily will be assured from the start, but
whether the long felt want exists or not
romains to be demonstrated. Bro.Smitb
has few equals and no superiors in this
sectisu as a writer, barriug neither proae
nor poetry ,aud tho infusion of hisi)legaut
style into tho pages of a daily publication
ought to uiako it "go" whethor or no. It
is also noted that the Colonel has "sworn
off" smoking, but this we think is a
bluff. ' Ho' 11 find that the successful
launching of a new daily papor is more
boy's play compared to lopping off the
suciilent "Blue Point" or the muscular
"Wheeling." Don't undorako both at
the samo time.
The Allegheny Riyer Impiovement
Association will hold a meeting in Pitts
burg, November 27, at which lime offi
cers will bo elee'ed aud committees ap
pointed to go to Washington during ihe
next session of Congress to urge appro
priations lor the contemplated work. Tho
Dispatch ol Sunday says : "This meeting
was to have been hold last Monday, but
on account of noti. es not being sent out
the date was made a little later. Much
interest In the proposed improvements
is taken by men concerned in manufac
turing enterprises along tho Allegheny,
aud their ultimato aim is to have the
river damod, up as far as Oil City, so that
it will insure navigation at all times suf
fieint to float logs down to Pittsburg. It
is believed that members of Congress will
look favorably on the matter if it is prop
erly put bol'ore them, and as so much de
pends on this work being done, a strong
committee is deslrod to urge the claims
of the district that will bo affected." In
view of the fact that it has been some
time since Oil Chy ceased to be a logging
camp, we would suggest to tho Associa
tion tho necessity for damming tho Alle
gheny considerably further towards its
source, Bays tho lihzzard, aud in which
conclusion we ho.irtily concur.
Killed By a Log Jam.
Wednesday afternoon a crew of men
were engaged breaking a log pile on tho
job of tho Millstone Manufacturing Co.,
on Millstone, when tho logs started un
expectedly. There wore live men cn the
pile, and all but ono Hughoy McCloskey,
succeeded in gettingoff, but ho was car
ried to the bottom of the hill, about one
hundred feet, with the logs. By jump
ing from one log to another he kept his
feet until ho reached the bottom, when
he tripped and foil, being caught between
two logs. He was taken to his boarding
place and a physician sent for. No bones
were broken and for a time he thought
be would recover, but he had received
internal injuries and died about 3 o'clock
this morning. He was married and
leaves a wifo and six children. A week
ago Monday, Hughoy McCloskey, Sr.,
was buried from tho homo of his son,
Hughey, Jr., and at that time the entire
family then living, threo sons and two
daughters, were present. Marienville

F. F. Whittokin, chief engineer and
Goueral manager of tho government rail
way of tho United States of Columbia,
South America, is at the Seventh Avenue
hotel, on his way to his formor home at
Tionosta, Forest county, where he will
remain for several weekM, says the Pitts
burg Times of last Friday. Speaking of
railroad building in South America, he
said : "The road now under construction
runs from Puerto Berrio, on tho Magda
lona river, westwardly through the main
rango of tho Andes mountains to the city
of Popayan. Work has been going on for
four years, and 100 inib s are now com
pleted aud trains running. About 1,500
natives have been employed on this part
of tho road, which was the most difficult
piece of construction I have ovor under
taken. Tho cost of construction of the
100 miles averaged aboutfJ75,000 per mi!o.
The highest point above sea love, is 0,200
feet. We have had a great many things
to contond with, but the greatest barrier
ot all is the dense growth of vegetation.
It is next to impossible to keep down the
underbrush and vines. Ever sinco we bo
gan the construction of the road it has
required a force of men to do nothing else
but battle with vegetation." While in
the United States, Mr. Whittokin w ill
placo orders for considerable material.
Ho said : "I come with the express pur
pose of placing ordors for four locomo
tives and 200 freight cars, but so far I
have been unable to find an establish
ment that will book an ordor ahead. The
best thoy can do is to promise to go to
work on ordors about September, 1000,
Steel rails' cannot bo purchased, either,
and I doubt if manufacturers will be
ahead of their orders in a year from now.
We are not kept back on this account,
however, as nil rails for the road aro be
ing purchased in Belgium.

Nothing of a startling or even of a com
monplace nature has developed in the
Titusville robbery and icurder during
the past week. Thd funeral of Chief of
Police Daniel McGrath tooa place on Sat
urday last, and was the most notable af
fair of the kind ever held in the Queen
City, where the deceased was very popu
lar. During the week scouting parties have
been scouring the country in every di
rection for the third member or the gang,
but without results. Many inspects t.ave
been "held up," because tbey tallied pret
ty well with the description given of the
robber, i.ut all to no purpose, the sus
pects being able in each instance to prove
themselves clear of any connection with
tho bloody work of the morning of the
11th inst. It was a' one time supposed
the follow had crossed the river near Tid
ioute and was in biding in the big forests
of this county, but that theory has been
abandoned, and the opinion of most peo
ple is now that he has made good his es
cape frcm this section of the country and
may never be apprehended, though the
?2,500 reward that is now placed on his
head will prove quite a stimulous to
those who delight in a hunt of that kind.
The last man to be arrested is one
James Wilson, a noted tough who was
seen with the gani. about I itnsville sev
eral times before the robbery. He was
bound over to court by the justice aud
will be tried as an accessory to the crime.
Up to th present the identity of the
dead burglar has not been established
though hundreds from all sections of the
surro. Hilling country, and some from
oilier States even, have viewed the re
mains for that purpose. The captured
member of the gang has not even been
identified. Ho gave b's name as Frank
Major at the hearing, but no one seems
to know where he hails from or anything
whatevir about him. The Crawlord
county grand jury has indicted him on
four counts, three for burglary and one
for murder.
James Meabon, who was one of a pur
suing party at Grand Valley, and who
accidentally discharged his shotgun, the
contents entering Jhis side, was ge ting
along quite well at last accounts, and his
physicians b -lieve he will recover from
his serious wounds.
NEW INFORMATION.
The Derrick's I itusville correspondent,
writing under date of the 20ih, says
the identity of the missing third burglar
h:is bfen established beyond doubt. A
citizen of Titusville has been doing a lit
tle detective work while o'hers have been
scouring tho country. He went to Olnan,
t ence to Bulla lo, where he found traces
of a tough character called Frederick Ad
ams, but whose real name is Frund
Woodard. In the rogues' galery he oh
taineu two photographs of the man,
which a certain Titusville woman in
stantly recognized as those of Woodaid,
whom she bad seen on the streets of Ti
tusville on the Friday preceding the
robbery, and had talked with h m. The
fellow has "done time" for several of
fenses, and Is quite well known to the
Buffalo officials. The doxeetion ot the
man is given as follows:
Fraud Woodard, alias Frederick Ad
ams, is 5 feet 73 inches in height.
Foiehead high and of medium width;
from a profile view, the nose is slightly
concave and slightly flattened on end,
giving the appearance ol being turned
up.
The eyes brown aud small, with pecu
liar squinting appearance.
Hair is chestnut brown iu color and his
mustache reddish brown and slightly
curled at the ends.
His complexion is very florid. He is
medium heavy in luiild ami weighed, in
Sniite uber, 189(1, 150 pounds. On his loft
middle forearm is a woman's figure tat.
toed. There is a rectilinear scar five'
eighths of an inch long at the third Joint
of the middld finger. On the right arm
is a rugged scar one and one-half inches
long by a half-inch wide t the bend of
the arm.
Faco Hairy mole at the middle of the
lowo' left jaw : raised mole at tho middle
of his i ight check bone. A mole at the
point at tho middle of the left o- eek.
On his back a raised mole at the middle
of the right shoulder blade.
It is believed with this description
tectives will have little trouble in run
ning tho culprit down. At last accounts
tho condition of Officer Sheehy, whose
wound was at first considered the most
aeriousof tho two Injured policemen, was
very encouraging, and Ins physicians re
gard him as practically out of danger.
At foiirt.
