A Dunkirk lad had a narrow escape
(tie other day from strangulation by
swallowing a wooden whistle attached to
a rubber "squawker." It lodged in his
wind-pipe and an operation bad to be
performed for its removal. Hearing a
number of these nerve-racking pests on
our streets within the past few days
brings this piece of information close
borne, and we sound the warning early
to parents who allow their dearies to use
the pesky squawk-bags.
Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Range of Stew-
arts Run. were visitors in town lor
few hours last Thursday afternoon and
left with us a sample of tomaloas of their
own raising the like of which is seldom
seen in this seel ion. There were four in
the bunch, the combined weight of which
was 41 pounds, the largest one tipping
the beam at U pounds. If any one can
beat this for tomatoes let blm or her lay
the same on the editorial table. Compe
titlon open to all comers.
A rather sensational account of an iu
ury to Harvey Kiser, at Wilklnsburg,
appeared in the Pittsburg papers last Sat
urday, which, we are pleased to inform
his many friends here was not of a ser
ious nature, Harvey having merely uot
ten his left hand a little too close to one
of the buzz-saws in tbo planing mill in
which he is a pari owner, and he was able
to resume work as soon as the cut was
sewed up. The papers had it that his
hand had been severed at the wrist.
Anderson Dunkle, well known to
many of our readers, died at his home
near Black's Corners, on Monday of last
week, and the funeral took place on Wed'
nosday, conducted by Rev. F. M. Small
The interment was iu the cemetery at
Lucinda. Had he lived till Ihj second
day of September Mr. Dunkle would
have been 63 years of ago. He bad an
honorable record as a soldier in the civil
war, aud was a pensioner. He was
brother of the late George Dunkle of this
place.
As a train was pulling on to tho sid
ing at the Penns'y station here yesterday
forenoon a rail was broken by one of the
heavy engines near the water tank and
bout twenty-five cais passed over the
place, crumbling up about four feetot the
rail, but luckily none of the cars left the
track and the train came to a standstill
without doing any damage. Had the cars
left the track there it might have been
mixup that would have made things
decidedly inteiestiug in and about tbe
depot.
Mr. Meredith, who has had charge of
the erection of the new span of the river
bridge during the past month, put the
finishing touches on this morning, and
tho-job Is now complete, and a nice piece
of work it is too. laying the balance of
tho old bridire so badly in the shade as
to make one feel ashamed of it. The new
span was erected without interfering
with travel to any extent worth mention
ing, for all of which our people feel quite
grateful to the one having in charge the
rather precarious work.
Tionesta won one and lost one last
week we are speaking now of base ball

strikeouts, and Davey Blum for tbe War
ren's had 11. The second game on Fri
day, was between Tionesta and Claren
don, and resulted in a defeat for the home
team, the score standing 8 6 in favor of
the visitors at the end of the eiebtb in

In years stone by only the demi
monde of America s noked cigarettes.
but of late the practice is indulged iu by
women who profess the highest respects
billty. Whetbor or not the habit per
mits of them retaining their self respect
or command that of others is a matter
somewhat discussed. It is undoubtedly
a fact that when women indulge in the
pernicious habit and endeavor to follow
in the footsteps of men, they lower them
selves in the estimation of people and
sacrifice thir greatest charm, attractive
ness and noblest womanliness. Though
cigarette smoking by women may look
"cuto" to men and be deemed proper by
women who indulge in it, it is anything
but elevating and should be condemned
by all respectable people.

At first no one understood why the
fashion show now running in New York
should attract such large crowds. Now
the secret Is out. The clothes are shown
by a hundred actresses, or would-be act
resses, who parade si wly around a plat
form before tho audience. The women
go to si e the dresses, the men to see the
girls, w ho are said to be the handsomest
looking the city could produce and nat
urally there is a large and ccntiuuous
patronage. Just wait till tho fad strikes

In a recent issue of the Journal of the
American Medical Association appears a
summary, covering several pages, of the
deaths and accidents resulting from the
Fourth of July celebrations of this year.
Omitting all cases where actual identity
bad not been made, or where there was
any doubt, the summary shoAs that 4,44!)
persons were killed and injured in the
United States. It is not thought that
over ono-half of the cases are included in
this table. Aside from tetanus, whicli
caused 406 deaths, there were 60 doaths
from other causes, 10 persons were made
blind, 74 lost one eye, 54 lost bands, arms,
or legs, 174 lost one or more fingers, aud
3,670 received other injuries, making a
total of 3,083 injuria. Iu the 406 deaths
from tetauus 363 were due from the blank
cartridge and toy pistol.
The storm of the 25lh ult. created no
little consternation among tbe inhabit
ants in the vicinity of Lickingville, If
tho account of it written by a correspond
ent of the Clarion Republican is to be ro
lled upon. He says: The storm which
passed over this section last Friday was
quite severe. It unroofed a barn of C. L.
Mali let burled one of his horses in the
bay blown from (ho barn, smashed a new
buggy for him and tore part of the barn
down. It carried trees for quite a dis
tance. At A. E. Alexander's a half grown
orchard was deetroved and his fences
were scattered all over the farm. F. H
Fletcher's corn crib was taken from its
foundation and carried toward Tylers
burg. G. M. Bradley's barn roof was
torn off and tho frame spread. Lightning
struck Daniel Daum's house, but did lit
tle damage.
Pursuant to directions from School
Directors Convention, the committee con
sisting of Co. Supt. Slilzinger, and Prin
cipals T. E. Sloight, of Marienville, W.
J. Stewart of E. Hickory, and D. W.
Morrison of Borough, met in the Super
intendent's ollice in Tiouestu on Satur
day, and planned the foundation of a
County Course of Study. The course em
braces twelve studies and is divided into
nine years' work. The committee then
divided up the various branches among
its members, and will meet again in four
weeks to compare notes and make final
adjustment. In the meantime, each
member will be busy outlining the work
by years in his respective branches, sub
ject to approval or alteration by the com
mittee as a whole. The committee esti
mates that the complete course will con
tain nearly one hundred pages.
Through the efforts of R. L. Logue,
of Oil City, lormcrly of West Monterey,
and J. II. Giles of the last named place, a
deal for over 2000 acres of coal land was
closed up within the past week, whereby
about 975,000 will be distributed among a
number of farmers in Monroe and Piney
townships for the coal rights alone. This
Is the deal that has been on for some time
past and has boen spoken of through the
papers as having been purchased by the
Mt. .ion Coul Co., tho owners of which
are C. W. Amsler, J. C. Campbell and D.
B. Shields of Marienville. Asido from
coal rights purchased, these parties
bought out-right the Kearney, McQueen,
Hamilton and one of O. L. Altinau's
farms. During tho past week notice has
been served upon a number of those
whose options were held that they were
accepted, and as rapidly as the titles can
be examined aud the preliminaries ar
ranged the coal will be paid for aud the
deal for the lots will be closed up. Num
erous references to this deal have been
published from time to time but it has
never been entirely completed until last
week.--Clarlon Democrat.

DIED.
PAUL At Salmon Crock, Forest Co.,
Pa., Sept. 4, 11103, Martin Howard, in
fant son of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. 11. Paul,
aged 3 months.
He had been ailing for several weeks
and on Saturday evening, Aug. 22, he
was taken with a violont attack of con
gestion of the train. His case proved a
very stubborn one, yielding to treat
ment at times only to take a firmer hold.
He sullored untold agony in spite of
medical aid and constant care of rela
tives and friends. On Friday relief came
and the little spirit took IN flight to the
One who said "Suffer little children, nnd
forbid them not, to come unto mo, for of
such is the Kingdom of Heaven." The
interment took place at the Whig II il
cemetery, Rev. Win. Richards ollllci.it
ing. If from our side the first has fled
And home tie but a name,
Let's strive tho narrow path to tread
That we tho last may gain.

Wo desire to return our sincere thanks
to the many friends in Salmon Creek and
Kellettville who so kindly assisted us
during tbe sickness and after the death of
our Utile loved one.

Dear Sir: The Trustees of Fair Ground,
Coblesk ill, N. Y., were glad to pay l"i
cents a gallon more lor Devoe: and no
wonder. The other paint Hgents said it
would take I"0 gallons ol their paint to
cover tbe building".
Our agent put it at Vl'i or less. It took
115.
W saved ihciii ' gallons of paint and
painting (worth $1 to J"' a gall as the
painting costs two or three limes as much
as the paint) less I ' cents a gallon on 111
gallons. S iv ft 10.
That's bow to count the cost of paint.
Tho cost of putting it on is f! to Jl a gal
lon. You see what that means. Go by
Devoe.
Yours truiy,
