Just why they should stop at that figure, and cut us out of the extra 00,01 1 which would be require I t- make the even 80,000,000 is a mystery.

Kdwin Shippen, well known as one of Forest county's pioneers in the lumber business, died at thn home of his son, in Elijay, Georgia, last week, and was bul led In Louisville, Ky., on the l lit li lust. In the early days of lumbering in this section Mr. Shippen owned extensive timber tracts in Harnett township, which ho cut and ran down the Allegheny and Ohio rivers, having his regular custom ers along those streams. Later his sons operated a number of years on the Ship- pen tracts in Harnett township, the father having reiUed from the business at this time. He has made bis homo latterly with his sons, Will and Fiank, who own large mills at Klijay. His sou, Edwin, Jr., is president of the Louisville Point Lumber Co. The word Irom the rural precincts is that honey will be scarce and high next season. Tho old laMiloned winter wnip- pod out the bees. A Titusville paper says one farinor near that place lost all but three out of 40 hives, and another lost all of his fifteen hives. However, honey will be on sale at the usual time, for what working bees are left will be al lowed plenty of glucose to work on. It's the same with honey as with maple syr up. As long as glucose, common mo lasses, brown sugar, bark extracts and a little maple sap hold out a l w sugar camps in Ohio and other Slates can stock tho United States with maple syrup at fl.10 a gallon, with a picture of the ma ple forest on the label. That's what the Venango Spectator thinks about it. Ffty-six head of Holstein, Durham and Jersey cows and three thoroughbred bulls were binned to death in a lire that destroyed the tine stock barn on the (arm of ex-Senator W. H.Andrews, in Cherry tree township, a mile north of titusville, early last Sunday morning. Tho build ing was valued at $2,5(10, and the total loss will reach fully fS.000. Tho origin of the fire is unknown, but it. is leared that it was started by a drunken man or tramp who pel ished iu the flames w ith the cattle, although this so far is only a theory. When discovered the flames had gained such headway it was impossible to save any of tho ock or contends of tho barn. This is the second barn Mr. An drews has lost by fire in six years. The other had its origin iu a bolt of lightning. Burton's theatrical boat house, built at Warren for a trip down the Allegheny and Ohio, landed at Tldioute Monday and the company gave a performance that night. Tuesday morning the aggre gation startod down the river, but when about two miles below town the wind caught the barn-like structure, and as it had no propelling power, simply drifting like a raft, it was driven ashore and striking a rock a hole was stove in tho hull and it sank near the east bank. Part of the professional talent engaged came to town, borrowed a push car and hand-propelled their baggage to tho rail road station and returned to Warren. Whether the boat can be floated we don t know, but we do know it would have a rocky time making Pittsburg against wind and riffles. Tidioute News. Jamos W. Mong, whose homestead is about four miles souUi of Tionestn, in Ti onesta townsh'p, has sold his farm to Adam Mealy, and expects aoou to move to Kansas, where ho will be engaged in the oil fields of that rapidly developing State. He advoitines the sale at pubic auction ofall his farming and household eH'ceN, to begin at 10:00 o'clock a. in., on Wednesday, April 27th, consisting of a spau of horses, live cows, several hogs, wagon, bu.ggy, bob-sleds, heavy and light harness, plow, cultivator end in fact a great many implements necessary anil useful on a larui. His household goods, furniture and kitchen utensils will also bo sold, anil every article offered will go regaidless of price. A raro op portunity for any one in ned of any thing iu this line. Hciiieinler tho date The custom of fanners along tho free delivery routes In some sections of using rural mail boxes as a medium of adver tising their sales is to be headed olf by the I'ostoflice Department. A warning has been issued that parties will bo pros ecuted for an inflection of tlio postal lawn if the rural mail ooxea are used as repositories for sale bills or advertise ments, July 31 has been named as the day when Wayside Inn, tho now Odd Fol lows' Home at Grove City, will be dedi cated. It is expected that the celebration will attract fully 00,000 people, and ar rangements are being mailt) to handle a crowd of that size. The buildings are rapidly Hearing completion, only the plastering remaining to be finished. Mrs. N. P. Wheeler of Endeavor, president of the Woman's Foreign Mis sionary Society of Clarion Presbytery, Mrs. S. F.

J., April 2d to at. A lire which consumed about fifty thousand feet of lumber belonging to Landers eV Wyman and James Church, occurred near East llickoiy hist Friday. Tho lumber was piled near tho Hickory Valley Railroad tra ks, u short distance above tho Hickory bridge, and it is sup posed the fire originated Irom a spark from a passing locomotive. The loss will amount to a thousand dollurs, with no insurance. 'I here was much other lum ber piled near, but by hard work was saved from the Haines. License Court. The Court Hat yesterday for tho consid eration of license applications. Presi dent J ildo Lindsey and Associates Craw ford and Dottercr occupied llio Bench. Seven applications were presented, but two of which being opposed by remon strances, theso being against tho granting of the application for the Oiagonal House at Hyiomtown, Jonks twp., and the Central House at Clarington, Harnett twp. Those v ranted, and against which there was no contest, are as follows: C. F. Weaver, Hotel Weavtr, Tio nesta Borough, Pa. G. E. Gerow and M. L, Gerow, Cen tral House, Tionesta Borough, Pa. G. W. Buhl, Keystone Hotel, Mar- ienvill, Pa. Joseph J. Young, Hotel Marien, Marienville, Pa. Regarding the Hotel Forest at Marien ville, while there was no remonstrance filed, ihe Court took the ground that two licenses were sufficient lor the accommo dation of the (raveling public, and re hired the application of this house. The samo view was taken regarding the Diagonal House at Ilyrointown. The remonstrance sgainst this house was faulty, but tho court was convinced that a license at that place was necessary, and so refused the application. In the caso of the application of the Central Houso, nt Clarington, tho Court took Into account the preponderance of the remonstrants over the pititioners. and tho license w as refused on that scoro.
