ye-terday. Ho h s had charge of the
tiling room in the large band mill of Col
lins, Watson it Co. for about fifteen years,
and is now taking a two weeks' vacation,
w hich is about the first he has hsdduring
that time. Mr. D. has been quiitly work
ing on a motor for some time, and expects
to hare It ready for patentiug shortly
He doesn't claim "porpetual motioD" for
it, but the contrivance will be as nearly
that as it is possiblo to get. He is a gen
ious in his lino, and we venture the pre
diction that be will evolve something
that will astonish them all when he is
ready to show it to the public.
Rev. S. S. Popoff was a guest at tbe
koine of his brother-in-law, F. A. Keller
over tho Sabuath, and during his stay
occupied the pulpit of the Presbyterian
church, morning and evening. His dis
course in tho evening was largely In the
nature of a talk on the progress of tho
missioii work in his native country, Bul
garia, and was an extremely interesting
revelation to the congregation. Ho came
to this country when quite young.educat
od himself for the ministry, and was
pastor of a prosperous church in Pitts
burg, but filling health compelled him to
seek a new climate, and he has been in
Arizona fur some time. His visit east at
this time is to escape the extreme beat of
that section. His wife is a daughter of W.
II. Frost, of Fredonia, N. Y., and they
expect to spend the su miner with their
eastern friends.
The remains of Frank G. Ittel, one of
the young men who mot death in the

late Goorge Ittel, well known to many of
our readors. He is survived by two sis
ters, both father and mother being dead.
Deceased was an industrious voting man
of steady habits, and well liked bv hisac
quain'.Hiicos. His companion, the other
unfortunate victim of this trauic affair,
Michai 1 J. Zipfclo, was also well spoken
of by friends. He whs a resiilont near
Brookville. and bis remains were takon
there for burial. Both young men bad
been employed at Loleta, Elk- county,
and wore ago. I about 22 years. They bad
started out together to spend tho Fourth
with friends near Grundervillo.
President Judge F. J. Thomas of tho
Crawford county court handed tlowu a
decision at Meadville, Monday afternoon
to the effect that the pure food law enact
ed by tho last legislature was unconstitu
tional. It was in the ease of Frederick J.
and Nicholas Kebort, who were convicted
of selling adulterated blnckbeary brandy
and wine. They askod for an arrest of
judgment on the ground that the law
was unconstitutional, and tho judge up
held them. The title of tho act ho holds
is misleading and conllicts with article 3,
section 3, of tho atate constitution, which
savs that no bill, but a general appropria
tion bill, shall contain more than one
subjo: t clearly expressed in the titlo.
Jinlne Thomas holds that as the law is
intended lor the enforcement of pine food
regulations, and says nothing whatever
regarding Intoxicating liquors, it is un
constitutional. The Free Methodists of tills district
have advertised a big cauipmeetiiig to be

Dead HHr or a Man Found Floating
in the River at tliis I'lace.
At an eaily hour last Sunday morning,
while Patrick Joyce and his son, Joseph,
were standing on the river bridge at this
place, having been called there on ac
count ot the sudden rise of the night pre
vious to see what shape their tools were
in, they espied what appeared like a man
floating rapidly down tho middle of the
stream. .Joe hurried down to John
Bush's place, and the two jumped into a
boat and followed and overtook tbe float
er about a quarter of a mile below. Tow
ing the body to the shore they made it
securo and notified Coronor Dr. Morrow,
who, after viewing the body put himself in
telephonic, communication with Warren
parties, whose description of a missing
man of that city tallied ho closely with
the body found that the Coronor deemed
it unnecessary to hold an Inquest.
A week ago last Saturday night, 2d
inst., George U. Evans, a man agod about
55 years, and a resident of Warren, was
missed by his people. The last seen of
him was about 9 o'clock that night sitting
on a bench near (ho bank of the river on
Front street. Sunday morning bis hat
was found near where he bad been seen
the night previous, which led to the be
lief that be bad fallen into the river.
Search was mode but no trace of him wes
discovered.
A tattooed mark on tbe arm of the man
found bore was sufficient to make the
Identification as that of Evans complete,
aud the body was given in charge of
Haslet Bros., undertakers, who, at the
request of Warren friends, prepared the
body for burial, and on Monday seat it to
Warren. No evidences of foul play were
discovered on the body, and we learn of
none being suspected. The, deceased is
survived by bis widow and teveral grown
children. t ' '
Held on a Charge of. Murder.
Harry Webb, a young man aged about
20 years, of Youngsville, Warren county,
is confined in the Forest county jail on a
charge of murder as the result ot a fatal
attack he made ou Orrie Filer, of the
same town, on the night of the Fourth.
The day bad been celebrated in gorgeous
manner and all features had been voted a
success, and in the evening a dance was
being held. About 9 o'clock Webb bad
been refused admission to the hall by
Filer who was attending the door, because
he failed to produco the required ticket
or its equivalent in cash. A short time
aftor Filer bad an errand down stairs aud
was mot by We' b on the street. After
some words Webb struck Filer, knock
ing him down and planting several kicks
about ids head. When Webb was finally
pulled away it was found that Filer was
tiucoiisious, aud was carried to a build
ing near by and a physician summoned.
The doctor found a slight movement of
the heart, which ceased within a few
moments. An examination disclosed
that the man's Deck was brokeu. Webb
made no effort to escape and was arreslod
in a few moments. At a bearing before
Justice Mead the prisoner was bound
over to the September term of court iu
Warren county, and the charge being one
for which no bail can be accepted. Sheriff
Brown brought him here on Wednesday
and placed him in the keeping of Sheriff
Nob! it.
The prisoner's family is very highly
respected in the community in which
they reside, and much sympathy is ex
pressed for his parents. Mr. Filer, the
victim of this unfortunate affair, bad been
a resident of Youngsville for many years,
and was one of its most peaceible and
highly respected citizens. He was a
steady, industrious man, not addicted in
any way lodrink.and bad not been drink
ing on the dsy of tho tragedy. He leaves
a widow and three children. He was aged
about 30 years.
Three Fatal Fist FlgliJs.
Bad tember cost the live of three men
in as many surrounding counties during
the Fourth of July "festivities" cf the
past ten days. All were fistic encounters,
tbe first happening at Oil City, on the 2d
of July, between John Lynch and Alfred
Tbumwood, the latter having lost his life
by hard blows from his antagonist. The
second occurred at Youngsville, Warren
county, when, on tho night of the Fourth
Harry Webb killed Oiril Filer, an ac
count of which is given in to day's Rk-
publican. The last fatal quarrel is re
ported from Clarion county, between Ora
Sampsou and Cash Furman, of Strattau-
ville, and resulted at a dance being held
in that town on the night of last Friday,
8th inst. Sampson, who is said to hayo
been the aggressor, was dead when tho
light ended. In none of these cases were
tho combatants above the age of 30 years.
It would apppear from Ik s that lho toy
pistol is not the only instrument of death
that should be eliminated from the
Fourth of July carousals.

Mr. limner, Slut Ion Agent nt West
Hickory, Sustain Serious Injury.
Milton Bruner, for many years elation
agent at West Hickory, P. R. R., met
with an accident Monday which cost him
bis left arm. and may yet prove even
more serious. The local froigkt north
bud completed its loading and shifting at
that station and was about ready to pull
out. Mr. Bruner had a message for the
crew and was In the act of delivering it
when overtaken by the accident. The
train was parted somewhere near the
middlo, and the rear part, with tbe ca
boose attached, was standing several rods
above the office. He walked up the track
and was handing tho message to the flag
man when the two parts of tho train came
toKether, causing the caboose to rebound
aud Mr. Brum r was struck and kuock'ed
down, the wheels passing over his left
arm, mangling it badly. Dr. W. G. Mor
row was summoned and took charge of
the unfortunate man till Ike arrival of
Dr. Shugart, the company's surgeon, at
Tidiotite. The two physicians took him
to the Oil City hospital at once, where the
arm was amputated close to the shoulder.
Mr. Bruner ca no through the operation
very well, tiut the shock has been so se
vere as to cause considerable fear of a fa
tal termination of bis case. Later Re
port this morning from his bedside states
that be is doing as well as could be ex
pected. J'retlr Juno Wedding.
