The W. C. T. U. wish to annource
that on next Tuesday evening, Juue30tb,
at eight o'clock in the Presbyterian
church, an address on the Mormon ques
tion will be delivered by Dr. Sarah J.
Elliot. She is a Medy-al Missionary,
who has beeu in Utah eight years and
made a thorough study of the situation.
She speaks in the interest of the eutire
Christian church as she unfolds the idol
atrous religion of the Mormons. She is
now under the auspices of the national
W. C. T. U. and the Interdenominational
Council of Wuineu of New York, and her
meetings are in the interest of an amend
ment to the constitution of the United
States prohibiting polygamy. A large
attendance is requested.
Iu days of old the tinker bold, when
called to mend a pot, would build a dam
of moistened meal around the leakage
spot. The melted solder thus was made
within due bounds to stay, but when the
solder solid wits the dam was thrown
awav. And so the meal then useless as a
Lake Cochituate clam, became a symbol.
hence we say "Not worth a tiuker's
dam."-Roller Mouthlj.
A daylight robbery nccured near the
station on the West Side, Thursday,
when the freight car occupied by a num
ber of Itallians as a borne was entered,
during the absence of the men at work,
and a number of articles taken. All their
trunks were broken open and their heller
clothing taken, besides two watches and
several other articles of more or less val
ne. There appears to be no clue to the
thieves.
William Carson, a former resident of
this county, died at the Oil Citv hospital
on the 14th inst., and was buried near his
borne on the Shaw Farm near Plumer,
Pa., on the 16th. His disease was quick
consumption. The deceased was aged 48
years and 6 days, and leaves a wife and
two small children. He was the youngest
of eight children of the late Robert M.
Carsou, and a brother of Joseph, James
and Jesse Carson, all of this county.
The Punxsu'awney Spiritbasdonned
a very pretty new dress of type, which
now makes it the handsomest exchange
that graces the desk of the Republican
sanctum. The Spirit bas long been one
of our most weli-ome excbang s, and this
evidence of its prosperity is a source of
much gratification to its large circle of
well pleased readers. Our best wishes
for continued prosperity are extended to
Congressman Smith and his excellent
Spirit.
Dr. Rumberger and party of friends
from Emlenton, who have been camping
on Ross Run fur a week or more, raised
the siege on the trout yesterday and
started for home in a tented boat. They
encountered too much wet weather for
successful fishing, but will try their luck
as they drilt down tLe placid Allegheny.
In an outing like theirs you must count
the fun you have as so many trout in
order to come out even, and it generally
balances up all right.
In the Presbyterian Banner of the
18th Inst., appears a very pretty poem
entitled "Thy Will Be Done." We hope
we violate no confident e when we state
that the poem is the production of one of
Tiouesia's popular school teachers, Miss
Nancy C. Morrow, whose ability as a
writer of unusual merit is not unknown
to the readers of the Republican and
whose production in this instance the ed
itor of the Banner thought worthy a place
as the frontispiece of that great religious
journal.
T. M. Parks, of Ashtabula, O., and
Miss Mary E. Hassey, of Oil City, were

o'clock on Wednesday morning, Rev.

by a la-ge circle in T'onesta, her native

happiness in her new relation.
-The oldest of our beneficiary orders,
the Ancient Order of United Workmen,
Is also among the largest. The Supreme
Recorder recently gave the total member
ship at the close ofl!)02 as 4)0.510. This
is a big brotherhood. The older mem
bers, like the G. A. K. veterans, are last
reaching the ace of expectancy, but tbe
ranks are kept well filled with new re
cruits. The death rale during the pa-t
year was 11.84 per 1,000. The order paid

With a fine flood In the river and
creek as a result of the heavy rains of
Monday night, the lumbermen are as
happy as the farmers were when the
drouth was broken, and as they will be
again if the rain man will now lake a
rest for a short time to give them sn op
portunity to work their potatoe and corn
crops a little bit. An immense amount
of stuff in the shape coal of boat bottoms
and iarges is ready for the freshet, and
will likely all get out on this rise. This
will mean the disbursement of several
thousand dollars in this neck o' woods.
An immense co-poralion has recently
been organized under the name of the

-The people of Austin have mado ap
plication to the court of Common Pleas of
Potter county to annul the charter ol the
water company of that borough, on the
allegations of poor quality and insuf
ficient quantity of the supply.. Judge
Boulon, ol this county, was occupiod at
Coudersport during the greater pait of
this week, taking testimony In the case.
Under the law relating to the subject,
corporations possessing franchises for the
purposes of supplying water to munici

pure water for the purpose, which the
complainants allege the Austin corpora

Saw Mill Swept Away By Flood.
The saw mill of Osgood A Jam if son,
located on Tarklin run, near Hill City,
Venango county, was swepted away by a
sudden rise in the stream over which it
was located, yesterday morning. The
flood of w ater came in something of the
n ture of a cloud-burst, so that wiihiu
the space ol ten minutes the water had
risen to the depth of about five feet, car
rying bridges, logs and tl-oodwood of
every descilplion before it. The mill was
completely demolished and carried a dis
tance of several rods down the stream.
When Mr. Osgood left the premises yes
terday morning the flood had not suf
ficiently subsided to permit of any esti
mate being made as to the amount of
damage to the machinery, but it will run
up into several hundred dollars no doubt.
Some of their manufactured lumber was
washed away also.
Our townsman, H.M.Zhniser,has re
ceived an invitation to attend the mar
riage ceremony of bis son, Rev. Archie

A return game of ball between Tio
nesta and Marienville was on the boards
for yesterday, but had lo be called off on
account of rain, and our boys did not at
tempt the trip. A game between Tidi

Friday on the grounds here, which is ex
pected to bo liko all former arguments
between the towns a hot number, often
riviling the blood and carnage of Oil City
and Franklin sporting events.
Hurrah for Charlie Bowman, who
won his fight for the nomination for
Slier iir In Clarion county at the Demo
cratic primaries last Saturday by a nice
clean majority, and which is about equiv
olent to an election in that county, es
pecially when that party nominates as
popular candidates as Mr. Bowman.
Thero's a big bunch of people in this
section who are rejoicing over Charlie's
win-out. His official majority was 222.
A. W. St roup and son, Arthur, who
were of a party of Tionesta people that
journeyed to the state of Washington in
April last, expecting to make that their
home in case the condition of tilings was
to their liking, returned to Tionesta last
week. Io many respects the country
suited 'Lnn first rate, his main objection
being the conditions of weather, which
brought on his old aslhmetio trouble
The'e are great opportunities in Wash
ington for money making if ono has a
little to start with and a whole lot of
pluck, 6tiergy and good health to plunge
a head. The giand old Keystone is good
enough for the most of them, however.
Negotiations set In motion within
the past few days by the County Com
missioners will result in the saving to the
county of about four thousand four hun
dred (4,400) dollars. This has beon ac
complished by the re-issue of ton thous
and of ihe poor bonds, not due till Hi 19,
so that the same can be paid in five years,
thus saving to the counly the amount
s'ated in interest charges. Of the new
bonds $2,000 are payable every year,
so that in five years fhis dobt will be
wiped out. Not a bad stroke of bgsiness
for our wideawake board ol Cominis-sio.ie-s,
and one that will meet the ap
proval of fae taxpaeis without doubt.
The Republican has come in posses
sion of a neat folder giving the schedule
of the Anchor Line of steamers plying
on the great lakes between Bit Halo and
Dulnth, Minn. In it is scheduled the
beautiful new passenger steamer, "Tio
nesta," mention of which has frequently
appeared in these columns. We note
that this is the most elegant, by far, of
any boat that has ever boen set afloat on
the lakes, and is the fastest one in com
mission, on which the fare charged is
somewhat higher than any o'ber, owing
to the many modern conveniences which
(he handsome ship adonis. The dimen
sions of the Tionesta are : Length on
keel, 340 feet ; length over all, 3ti0 teet;
beam, 45 feet; depth, 28 font; tonnage,
3,500 j passongor capacity, 3.'i0. The new
steamer is said to be a marvel in the
construction of lake passenger boats.
The business men of Cochranlon are
orani.ing a mutual lire Insurance com
pany as a measure of nrotection from the
nxhorbilaot rates charged by the com
panies now doing business in tho town.
The properiy owners wore assured that
with the good water works the insurance
rates would be reduced, but when the
works were put in, the rates were in
creased. It is claimed that Ihe losses
have been so light in the fown that had
ihey been carried on a mutual system,
and paid at the rale exacted by the for
eign companies, the local company would
be rich enough lo carry the risks from
now on without a cent more of premium.
Franklin News. The foiejjoing item
describes precisely the same state of
afiairs in this town. It was supposed
when the town was adequately protected
from fire by the introduction of a good
water system insurance premiums would
be lessoned lo some extent at least. In
stead the lates have gone up until now
the business houses are payu.g a 25 per
cent, higher ra'e than formerly. We
doubt whether the fire losses in Tili
ng sta since the introduction of the water
would greatly exceed $1000, but how
much has been paid to the insurance
companies in premiums by our business
men during the past ten years.?

His early training, both secular and re
