The pasi week has boon a good one for tho fBrmor in this section. The weather lias been quite propitious for gathering the harvest of hay and grain, and a heap of both products has been gar nered. It all comes out about right if we will have patience. Away with St. Swithen superstition, and keep a weather eye on the reaper and the rake. Make hay while the sun shines. At this season of the year many of our readers have friends visiting them from other places, and these visitors, in most casts, have other acquaintances here who would be glad to learn of tbeir pres ence. It is, therefore, a good idea to send the personal notice to the Rkitiilican ofllce for publication. Wo are always glad to receive notification of the move ments of our town and citizens. A writer with some knowledge of gardening says: Onions, tomatoes, pep pers, egg-plant, squash and colery will take from 110 to I.'iO days from planting to mature. Carrots, cabbage, parsley and summer squash will run up into the nineties. Lettuce, cucumbois. swoet corn, pras and spinach require from sixty to sixty-five days, while radishes are Ihe thickest of all and come on in twenty to thirty days.' Cress 's ready to eat in ten days. In addition to tho usual oath of alle giance the new oath which foreigners de siring to become naturalized citizons of United States will be compelled to take hereafter contains this clause: "That I do not advocate or teach the duty, neces sity or propriety of the unlawful assault ing or killing of any o ll'u-cr or ollicers, either of specific individuals or of ollicers generally of the government of the United States or of anv other organized govern ment, because of his or their ullliciai character."' II, A. Siggins, superintendent of the Warren street railway, together with the conductors and motormcn in charge of the two cars jhat met in a collision on tho 4th of July ami killed Archer Striker, were held by Judge Lindsey in the sum of JoOO each to answer to the chaige of manslaughter at the next term ol court in Warren county. Tho coroner's jury had charged tho company with criminal carelessness, mid tin? lather of thn un- fortunato young man preferred tho charge- under which tho ollicials aro held. . R. L. Buzard, a former prominent citizen of Rrockway ville, Jefferson county, died on Tuesday of last week near Los Angeles, Cal , whither he had removtd some time ago hoping the cli mate would prove boneticial to his health, which had become impaiied. The de ceased was well known in this county, where he was connected with the firm of Collins, Watson A Co., at Golinza. Mr. Buzard was aged about 65 years. E. E. Fleming, superintendent of the Homestead and National leases in Har mony tow nship, has been hustling things since the fierce forest tires of last May, when these leases were entirely swept over by Are, and has them in good pump ing condition agaiu, starting the second new power this week. The new gas en gines and powers are set in solid cement foundations and the floors of t'.e power houses are of cement, while the buildings are of corrugated steel and it will be a pretty hard niattar to burn them again. The Commissioners of Warren county are about to begin extensive repairs and alterations on the jail of that county, and while the work is going on they will de posit their prisoners in the jail at Tio nesla, arrangements to this effect having been made with the Commissioners and Sherifl'of this county. This will give Sheriff Noblit a little extra business for which he will perhaps be duly thauklul, and the monotony of the dullness that has been thick enough to cut with a knife thus far during his encumbency of the Sheriffs ofllce, will be in a measure brokeu. lies ides the prisoners will be in a secure place. Tionesta Is now as big as any of 'em, the first horseless machine owned by a citizen of Ihe city having touched us dur ing the past week. E. W. Bowman of the Citizens National bank Is the propri etor of the new car, it being the Oldsino bile won at the recent Warren carnival, and purchased by Mr. B. Several drivers have handled the critter, or tried to, since its advent in the town, and have gotten a pretty fair rate ol speed out of it, but the maximum has not been roached,and there have been no accidents to record up to this writing. The machine is a neat affair and runs with less racket than most ol those usually met with. Consistency gets some rude jolts in connection with the telephone business. A story is told of a woman, who, wishing to visit a neighbor, pulled the baby'B crib up in front of tho telephone, opened the receiver, and told central if the baby be gan to cry to call ber up at the neighbor's. Her action was just about on a par with that of the girl who never hesitates to step into a neighbor's house, ask for the use of the telephone, then call up some person who has a 'phone in another part of the town, and ask the party who ans wers to step across the street and call a girl friend to the 'phone in oidor that she may ask If she Is going to the picnic next wock, Blizzard. An experiment in educational econ omy that has the charm of novelty for this portion of tho State will be tried the coming school year by the borough of 1'leasantville and tho townships of Al legheny and Oilcreek, that of Jointly sup porting a high school, says the Doriick, Last year the high school was supported by Oilcreek township and Pler.santville, each furnishing about fifteen pupils, and tho exponse was divided according to the number of pupils earn supplied. The ar rangement was v3ry satisfactory, and this year Allegheny township wants to be added. The matter has been thorough ly discussed by representatives from all three, school districts and there is no doubt but that the experiment will be tried tho coming school year, "Teanut Jab" is the suggostive name of a new game which is said to be highly successful as a source of merriment and good fellowship. The game is played on small card tables, and each pairot guests is provided with a dish of water, in which a dozen peanuts float. To each player is given a hat-pin, and the party is in structed to "jab" the peanuts that is, to transfix them with the hat-pin. to the in tent that they may be landed without be ing touched with the fingers. The game is played progressively, and tho nuts which have been landed take tho place of scoro cards, says an exchange. We don't know that we exactly catch onto tho Idea, but would judge that it must be big busi ness for people of any considerable sense -Some surprises are In store for com municants of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the new order of public wor ship which has just been prepared by a oint commission of that church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, says a dispatch. This commissi n met re cently in Ocean Grove, N. J. Two new features of tho new order have a deci dedly Protestant Episcopal savor. The prefatory paragraph reads : "Let all our services begin exactly at the hour appoint ed ami let all our people knoel in silent prayer on entering the sanctuary." The concluding paragraph is : "Let all our people be exhorted to kneel in prayer, keeping their faces, toward Clie minis ters." Both of these costumes are in established use in the Protestant Episco pal Church. To a considerable extent the former is followed in tho Methodist Epis copal Church but it has never been spe cifically urged before. The socond recom mendaiion is a decided Innovation, how ever. It has always been the custom in the church to kneel during prayer, but the habit has been to turn completely around and kueel facing the pew oc cupied.

Klinestiver Jan, 14, 18S8. Susie gave her heart to God, when about 15 years old, and all through life sho has been a faithful follower of the blessed Lord. Sho loved her Sunday school and tomperance work and to these sho devoted her time as much as hor health would permit. During the last few years of her life she has been a constant sufferer, but bore her suffering without complaint. She was of a kind, unselfish disposition, her care always being for those about her more than for herself. She was loved by all who knew her. She assured her friends that she was not afraid to meet her Master, in whom she trusted. As the ond drow near she asked those about her losing, and although so weak, she joined in the singing. After that she fell asleep to waken on the other shore Susio leaves a kind aud affectionate husband, three sons, Morton G., Allison E, and Glenn I., lather, brother and two sisters, besides a host of friends to mourn her loss.

In connection with the above Ihestriek en husband and boys desire to thank the neighbors and friends who were so kind ami sympathetic in this thn darkest hour of their lives.

An Attempt to Blow Onea an Empty Safe Proves a Failure. Some time during last Wednesday night an attempt was made to blow open the safe In Sheriff Noblit's office in the court house. When the sheriff entered his office on Thursday morning he found matters in a topsy-turvy condition, and ho could scarcely believo his eyes when ho made the discovery that an attempt had been made to burglarize his safe. The combination nob had been battered off' and a quantity of nitro-glycerine had been poured into the receptacle thus left, but the operators had evidently neglected to tamp tho stuff and much of the explo sive had run out on the floor. A piece of fuse was left in the knob bole and had partially burned up, but from some cause had failed to ignite or explode theglyccr inc. In this condition tho burglars left their precarious job. Some of the tools and oi her materials used were left behind. A sledge hammer, brace aud some bits wero tho property of Hepler A Hopkins ami had been taken from their tank shop across tho river. From E. E. Fleming's barn on River St., a quantity of nitro glycerine, some drills, fuse and a horse blanket had' been stolen and these were found in tho office, Mr, Fleming has use for these articles in his lease work, but it was not generally known that ho kept them in bis barn, and the familiarity of tho burglars with these facts leads to tho suspiciou that local tal ent bad something to do with the burg larious attcuipt. At least in giving pointers. What any thief would expect to get from a sheriff's sale in these piping Re publican times is the greatest mystery of all, and it is the pretty general opinion that the perpetrators thought they wore burglarizing the sale in the treasurer's ofllce, and if local talent was implicated they had given the operators the wrong tip as to where the latter was located in the building. At any rate they secured nothing, and would not have found a penny if their attempt to get the safe open l ad been successful. It is thought there was at least a half pint of glycerine used in the crevices of the sale, and for a day or so after 'here was considerable, speculation as to how the safe was to be opened, as no one cared to monkey much with it with so much of the dangerous fluid sticking to it. An ex-"shooter" from Tidioute happened along on Friday and took the contract of opening the safe, and had hi money earned in a few hours. Tho damage to the safe will amount to about $50, As yet there is no clue to the burglars, but thoy left evidences that may locate them sooner or later, and it is altogether likely some people not far from town are having an uneasy time of it these days. Dropped One 1o Plcasantvillc. Pleasantville came over Monday after noon and won a woll-contostcd game from our boys, the Bcore standing 5-3 in favor of the visitors at the end of the ninth inning.

West Hickohy, Pa., July 15. Ed. Repuhlicmi: Last week 1 had occasion to visit your pretty town and drove down Irom Hick ory. I like to do trading with your mer chants but it is too tedious and perilous a trip to undertake unless ono has urgent business. The road from Hickory bridge to the Hopkins farm is tough. From the Hopkins farm to Tionesta it is fairly goodj and would bo belter if the sloun were picked from tho road. Tho good people of Tionosta should have tho road put In sliapo from tho Hickory bridgo to the Hopkins place because people would drive to Tionesta to do trading and as a pleasure trip, and further, if tho commis sioners have no funds to make repairs it would pay the Tionesta merchants to see that this road is repaired. For the last year the "narrows" has been in a deplorajlo condition. It takes some money but it pays to keep tho road in better order than that road was last week and last year. Wo get bumps enough in this world without being jolted every 50 feet on the public highw ay while traveling on a road that should be one of the prettiest and smoothest in the county. Suppose your merchants got together, appoint a conunitten of six men to go over the road aud look into tho matter and make a written report to bo pre sented to these merchants one week later. I do not know who the pathmastors are or who tho commissioners aro, lint I do know the roads from tho Hickory bridge to tho Hopkins farm will stand some re pairs. G, Taming the Coyote. W, O.
