Many friends throughout this section
will lie pleased to learn that John R.
Steele had practically a walkaway for the
olllce of treasurer of Venatig j county at
the recent election. Mr. Hteele is a vet
eran of the civil war aa well as in the
ranks of the grand old Republican party,
and deserves the nearly two thousand
majority which the people rolled up for
the genial John.

something bordering on the pbenominal,

up. But he's used to big majorities and
It won't puff him up any, so that all his
newspaper friends may feel at liberty to

CUrk D. Eckles, of the Cambridge
Springs News, who was elected to the
Legislature, says: "Our readers can
readily undorslai.il that we are very
much pleased over the result of the elec
tion In Crawford county last Tuesday
nd If we smile rather broadly at Inter
vals we trust we will be kindly over
looked. We hsve bad our share of grief
In the past, and thus no doubt are better
able to enjoy our share ot this glorious
Republican prosperity. And it's great
medicine! There sre 7,000 people in
Crawford County who are entitled to re
ceive rnd we hope will accept herewith
our thanks for their assistance in com
pounding the presciiption."
O. W. Sawyer was the Congressional
return Judge for this county, meeting the
others of tiie district at Warren yesterday,
whoie the vote on Congress was compu
ted. Sheriff Jamieson acted In a similar
capacity on tho Senatorial returning
board, meeting the members front tho
other counties at Ridgway, Sawyer's
duty was by far the most arduous, he
having to wrestle with majorities for Mr.
Sibley running up into the five thousand
figures, while the Sheriff had merely to
help look after a one-sided affair in the
nature of a few hundred votes for Mr.
Hall, who was unopposed by any Repub
lican in the district, and having only the
Prohibition vote to contend with, which
is usually nominal affair In a strong
1'viuocratic district like the iWh.

The newly elected County Commis

on Samuel M. Henry of Marieuvllle as
their choke for Cleik for the ensuing

and doubtless will give entire satisfaction
to the people of the county. His capa

clerk the new board gives an earnest that

The women of Meadville are urging
the adoption of the curfew law in that
city. There la usually opposition to the
passage of a curfew ordinance by well
meaning people, but once the law is put
in operation, it gives good satisfaction,

On Saturday last, J. A. Fleming U, S.
Engineer, who ia connected with tlieUeo
ilellc, Coast and River surveys, was at
Tlonesta. to establish a point here, con
nected with the bydrographic survey of
the Allegheny river. The place chostn
for the l-icalion was In Riverside Ceino
lery, at or near the junction of the main
entrance from the South aide of said
cemetery, wlib the entrance from F.I in
street. This Important stone ia a mar
bio block about ti or 8 inches square and
live feet long sunk into the earth about 5
feet, so aa to be permanent, and ia an

In this connection we would suggest
that the County, in connection with this
established monument, locate a true me
ridian line, as is required by an old Act
ol Assembly to tost surveyors' compasses
and Instruments by, a duty which I
neglected in many counties.
Mrs. Ir. Riimbergf r Seriously Injured.
While returning home from Foxburg
last Thursday night, Rev. C. C. Rumber
ger and wife met with a serious sjcident
on the new Emlentnn and Foxburg road.
Rev. Ruinberger and wife drove to Fox
burg to attend prayer meeting. After the
meeting they drove up the new road and
everything went well until within about
"ion reel south of the Emlentnn bridge,
when they met Perry Albert driving a
horse hitched to a buggy going Irom
town. The hour was about 10 o'clock
and tho night very dark. Mr. Albert
made bis presence known, the two stop
ped their horses, and Rev. Ruinberger
got out from his buggy and taking bis
lantern walked a short distance ahead ol
his horse to look for a suiuble place for
the two rigs to pass. While doing this
Rov. Riimberger's horse began backing
and before be could reach him, horse,
Cuggy and Mrs. Ruinberger ali went
over the Bleep embankment, landing
near the pipe line between thirty-lour
and fourly-foiir leet from tho road. Mrs.
Ruinberger was thrown under the buggy
but fortunately liotween a large stone and
log, so that the outfit did not rest heavy
upon her, and the horse was but a few
feet away. Rev. Rumbergor and young
Albert went to her rescue as soon ss pos
sible and took her from beneath the
reck, and placed her near a tree eighty
eight feet from the road, ind then made
an effort to free the horse from the buggy.
The tug, hold-back strap and thill-carrier
on one side were loosened, when the
borne, which had been badly stunned by
the fall, suddenly gave a fearful plunge
and landed in the river one hundred feet
irom the road, taking Ihe buggy with
him. As the horse and buggy passed Ihe
tree auainst which Mrs. Ruinberger vas
standing something hit her a terrible
blow on the bead rendering her uncon
scious. Rev. Ruinberger called acioss the
river for help, which soon arrived, aud
Mrs, Ruinberger was brought home and
given medical attention. The horse was
later brought over and placed in V . D.
MtGinnis & Son's livery barn. Mrs.
Ruinberger was not injured when taken
from beneath the buggy alter Ihe accident
first occurred, ami would have escaped
injury had Ihe horse not made the fearful
plunge afterward. She lias since been
confined to bor bed suffering terribly
from nervous prostration occasioned by
the ordeal through which she passed.
Every one who has visited the scene
wonders how either Mrs. Rnmberger or
the horse escaped alive. The horse, be
sides being nsdly bruised, received a bad
cut on top of the' head. The accident was
one of the worst to occur in our midst for
a long time, and the many friends o Mrs.
Rumbergor hope she may recover from
it. Kmleiilon News,

causes sadness in the community is which

feelin; of loss is iutonsifird In the case or
one who was a prominent, well known and
userul person, like the subject or this sketch.
He will be missed by the people or Forest
County in many waya. Ilia genial person

bia prominence as an Odd Fellow covering
a period of over half a century, all com
bined to endear bim to the public general
ly, buth young and o'.d, and to the order of
which be was so long a bright and shining
light. Citizens of Tionesta, and In fact hia
wide circle of acquaintances all through
Western Pennsylvania, will have diffi culty
in bri -giug themselves to a realization of
the truth that one so long Identified with
it has passed from Ibe scenes of earth to
the more aged tt seema more like fiction, or
a dream, than a stern reality. He was
identified with the community as long as
a-y other iu it, and his mind was well
atored with the history of this section, aa
well as with pleasant anecdotes of the ear
liersettleiaand their exploits, trials and
triumphs. He was regarded as an oracle
and authority in such matters, from
whence there was no appeal. Ilia motto
was embraced li the Golden Rule He was
no respector of persons, treating rich and
poor wilh the same warmth and cordiality
all through life. He leaves as many friends
and will be missed by aa large a number as
anyone who ever lived in this part or the
country, being a special favorite with the
children. He despised all forma of vanity
and show and was s true man In every
sense of the word.
Samuel Hamilton Haslet was boru in
what ia now Oakland township, Venango
county, Pa., March 14, 18J6,being the ninth
child of James and Busana (Grove) Haslet,
deceased, who aettled In Venango county
lo 1HJ3. Hia paternal grandfather, John
Haslet, was a pioneer of Centre county.
The latter's parents and a part or the fam
ily were killed by the Indians in Chsster
county in an early day. His maternal
grandfather was Peter Grove, the famous
Indian fighter with Samuel Brady. He
was also one of the pioneers of 'entre C o.
Jamea Haslet, father of the deceased, was
a farmer by occupation, having cleared
aud Improvid a large farm in Venango
county, upon which farm he died. James
Haslet was twice married, bis fecond wire
beiug Jane Uurd, and he was the father of
twenty-one children, fuurteeu or whom
still survive. The subject of this sketch
was reared on the homestead in Oakland
township, and in 1818 went to Stuben coun
ty, N. Y., where during the winter of 181
49 he taught school. The next spring he
moved to Jefferson Furnace, Clarion coun
ty, and acted in the capacity of clerk In
the company store for two and one hair
years. In September 18.11, he located in
Tionesta where he embarked In the mer
cantile business, and by close attention to
business had accumulated a fair com pen
tancy. He was at the time of bis death the
oldest merchant in contlnnoua business in
this part of the couutry, having served lu
that capacity for the past fifty-one years.
On August 18"ti, be married Margaret,

RESOLUTIONS OF BESPKIT.
It ia seldom that an order is called upon
to mourn the loss of so valued and promi
nent a membsr aa that which has been
occasioned by the death of our Brother,
Hon. Samuel H. Haslet. It has been said
that, 'history after all ia but biography am
plified and enlarged."
Accepting this definition and applying it
to the deceased, It is not too much to say
that the history ot Tionesta Lodge No. 3-9,
I. O. O. F., is largely comh-elieiided in the
biography or our departed Brother, who
was a member and a leading spirit in the
Lodge ror about hair a century, in fact its
beacon light. And while we sadly mourn
his loss, we delight to bear testimony to hia
worth. He understood the spirit or the or
der uncommonly well versed In its work,
usages ond precepts by which his life was
guided. He was known through the State
as an earnest apostle of "Frieudslrp, Love
and Truth," and as a true man, called by a
poet, "The noblest work of God "
Therefore be it resolved :
That we deeply mourn our loss in this,
the death or Brother Samuel II Haslet;
that we sadly miss the wiso and valuable
counsel or this patriarch or our Lodge, as
well as his genial and pleasant presence
which always brought sunshine, into our
meetings; that our heartfelt sympathy Is
hereby extended lo the family; that in tok
en of respect to his memory the Charter of
the I,odge be draped In mourning for thir
ty days; that the above preamble and reso
lution be spread in full upon the minutes of
the Ixslge and published in the Demo
cratic Vindicator and Forest Republi

Her suffering was terrible, but through
it all she never forgot to let ber heart go
out to God, and as there would be times
when the pain would be less severe, she
would praise God and say, "Amen, Thy
will be done, Oh God." She always was
cheerful even when she was suffering
most. Surely she died triumphantly in
Christ. Her life was wrapped up in God.
