It ii the experience of the publisher that too manv people nro apt to think H matters but lilllo whether the newspaper ill is paid promptly or not that it is but a small Mini and therefore of little conso cjuence. And this is not because tlio sub scribors are unwilling to pay but because they nro negligent.

The most sensational tragedy in the history of Foiest county viaj enacted at Marienvillo last Wednesday evening, re sulting in tho murder of Mrs. John II. Fidlerand the suicide of tho murderer a moment later. About 5 o'clock In the evenin'g, while Fidler snd his wife were locked in their room in tho second story of the hotel, he placed a revolver close to her head and fiied, the 1 all entering at the left t( tuple and passing through the head, killing her instantly. He tiien tent bul If t into his own hi ad near the same pot from tho ( (feels of w hich ho died about threo hours later. As may be inl ine d llecoinmunity was horrified at tho awful deed, in d in a few moments tlio place was thronged w ith the citizens of the town. Fidb r had been drinking heavily for several mouths past, and during the past weeks had been suffering from dolerium tremens, often becoming almost a raving maniac. He was a powerful man and at such times it was impossible to con trol him, his faithful wifo seeming to be nblo olten to subdue him when all tin r efforts failed. It is said ho olten threatened hor life, but apparently she did not believe he would put his threats into execution. Reports also say lhat in liis ravings, and without the slightest cause ho became insanely jealous. In his sober periods he had always seemed a mode! husband and in bis household a Mails, and to his wife and child, kind almost to a fault. The Expres gives those particulars of tho tragedy and the eireu instance s lead ing up to it : "Ou Monday, January 10, ho lelt with others lor Harrisburg lo attend (ho in auguration and returned on Iriday and since that tlino has been gradually com ing to the point of tremens, although not drinking as much as ho had been known to on iimiiy former occasions, his system was notable to stand it. On Tuesday he was very bad. Ho would follow his wife about tlio house and storm nnd rage. Yesterday she thought she would try to keep In in up stairs in their room. He seemed to become frenzied with fear of a warrant in tho hands of some one and that some person was go ing to arrest him and crazed with this idea, he barricaded tho door of tho room. Sometime during the afternoon he had gone down stairs and finding his revol ver, put it with some cartridges in his pocket and on going up-siairs, said, "Now I'm prepared for them." About 4 o'clock Mrs. Fidler sent her littlo boy, Clyde, dowu slabs lo toll Joseph Leech to come up stairs and try to pacify him, but as ho approached tho door, Fidler warned him not to coino in, and Mrs. Fidlor thou told Joo ho had better go down. A short tune later Mr. and Mrs. Fidler were sitting at Iho window w hen John Dcchant, clerk at tho hotel, came in sight and Fidler askid Dcchant if Charlie, wanted him and wl.o had the warrant. Mr. Dcchant replied thoro was no war rant and no on 3 wanted bim, and to rest easy. .Mrs. tidier then asliod Mr. Lie chant to come up and explain to him, but Fidler said, no that ho did not need to co. no up. t hese wero tho last worus mat anyouo living heard. Shortly aftoiward tho reports of throe shots wero heard and the sound of someone falling on tho lloor. After lirt sending for constable Rail'sny der, John Deuhant, N. F. Hoover and others tried to get into the room bul lound it barricaded. They finally kicked tho lower panuels in nnd peered into tho room and could see him on tho lloor and hear him moaning. After workingtwen ty minutes or more they succeeded iu foi cing an entrance, to lind before their eyes tlio lifeless body of Mrs. Fidler nnd her husband as described. Ono of the shots had evidently been fired at a pair of trousers which hung alongside of tho window no doubt taking them for a man. Drs. Beck and Yingling were at once summoned and after examining the wound ol Mrs. Fidler which evidently had caused instant death, wont to woik lo sustain the last spark of 1 i to iu him who had committed the terrible tragedy, but nil attempts to biing him back lo c uisciousnes-) proved futile and at 8:4.1 he pissed to the great beyond. Mrs. Fidler had evidently been sitting on tho side ol III j bed and tho revolver held right close to her temple as her face was powder burned. A 32-calibro Smith A Wesson 5-shooter lay along side of him with three chambers emptied." Fidler was aged ahoul ;j years and en gaged in the hotel business at Marien villo about six years ago, owning the Forest House. He had a wido acquaint ance, and when sober was regaidcd as a man of good impulses and quite well thought ol. Mrs. Fidler was considered a model woman; highly esteemed for her many good qualities of mind and heart by those who knew her. She was aged 27 years. One child, a boy of 7 years, is lelt an orphan by tho sid tragedy. Tho fu neral was held ou Friday afternoon and was under charge of the Odd Fellows' fraternity, of which Mr. Fidler had been a member for a number ol years. An inqtio-t was held on Thursday on tho body of Mrs. Fidlor, 'Squire Jas. T. Ro-e acting as coroner, tho verdict ren dered being iu accordance with tho facts hero related. (.'as Explosion in Cil iens lUnk. An explosion organ in the heater in tlio basement of tho Citizens National Rank last Wednesday caused a bad wro.:k of tbo furnace and did considerable dam- ai;o to tho building. During the previous day tho pas had been turned oil, and Mr. fiowman, the cashier, had Hc,ain turned it on a few mo ments beforo and had koiio to the base ment to see that all was rilit, but found that Iho fras was not bnrninu, except littlo in tho mixer. Ho started to no up tho stairs to turn oil' tho gas and had got ten to tho third step when tho explosion occurred. Remarkable as it may seem lie escaped without any injury, but tho furnace and all pipes were blown to shreds. Tho windows on tho sioutli side of tho building were completely demol ished, tho force of the explosion coming up through the hot air pipes and tho reg islers on that side ol tlio building. Oth erwise no damage was done to tho inside, m:tti.i:, i'okti.ami. i.o m;i:i.i:s are ca-ily n ached by Allen's special par ties. Write II. C. Allen, C. 1'. A T. A., Nickel l'lato roal, Kile, I'a. Ali-a'JS Heavy Losses on Hits Clarion. The break-up over ou the Clarion river Friday ami Saturday played havoc with many of the boat men operating along that stream. The iacK of water last fall preventivi many from getting their boats out of Ihe river into the Allegheny and t!iP3' were fro u in, tho ice be-coming un usually heavy. All possible preparations were made to hold them when the break up should como, but tho eidds we.o loo much against the lumbermen and many have Kiill'ored heavy losses. The heaviest losers aro perhaps Marvin, Kultitfsoii A' Co., at M ill creek. This firm had gotten number of Hats as far as the mouth of the Clarion when tho ico began running in December and it was impossible lo gi t them farther on. These have been ground up in tho gorge's, besides some others. Croasmun A Co., at tho mouth of Maple cre-ek, J. J.
