Miss Sarah Jackson, of near Indian

forty years ago and feeling that the end
oflilbwas drawing closer as . the year
was coming to a close, made hor will and
requestcd'tbal no man should attend her
funeral. The will, which was drawn - for
hor by a Iriend, provided that the driver
of the hoarse shall be a woman, the pall
lea rear shall be womert, and the persons
who dig and fill the grave also shall be
women. This will, it is said, is theiesult
of an aversion to men, growing out of an
old love affair more than -10 years ago.
A correspondentof the Franklin
News says: "There is a species of puBlic
ingratitude which can only be apprecia
ted by those who have suffered its ef
fects." Many mon, who have contribu
ted liberally of their time and money in
advancing public enterprises, of one
kind or another, oin testily to the truth
of this assertion. Selfish motives are im
puted wlien thoso which animate the ac
tion are of an entirely different character.
There is nothing so uukind ns base in

us a very liberal donation on Tuesday
aflornoon of last woek. It was similar
to the one they made for us a little over a

It Is rumored that two new passenger
trains will be added soon to the BuUalo
and Allegheny division of the Pennsyl
vania railroad. The trains will run be
tween Pittsburg and Buffalo, and the
schad.ute planned for them provides that
kthey vill pass Oil City about 4:30 p. m
The stop will be very short, just long
euough to change engines and crews, as
the running time of ihe new trains will
make them the lastest on the division,
the schedule calling for the run of 1.12
miles between Oil City and Pittsburg in
three hours and twenty minutes, aud the
running time nortn to- Jin Halo will be
considerably lessoned. '
The corps of surveyors who haye
been in Warren for the past week are
still engaged in this vicinity, but the
purpose of thoir mission is as vague a

engaged in laying out a d reposed new
line, vvednesday thev began a survey
from the Glade run bridge to the Lacy
farm, following the leftside of the road.
At the Lacy farm they directed the sur
vey up the road leading to Irviuetiale
Park. It is the supposition that the new
line will follow the levinea that come out
above the head of Conewnngo avenue,
and thou follow the Conewango creek to
Falconer. Warren Mirror. The suppo
sition is that sooner or later these engi
neers will becoming down the river with
their work, and will survey a route con
necting with the Erie at Oil City, at
which placo thoir Meadville branch has
its present terminus.
During the recent cold weather an
extraordinary occurrance took -'place In

A MOTHER'S AWFUL DEED.
Cuts the Throat, of Her Son, anil
At
tempt tu Enl Her Own Life.
Mrs. Leslie Greeley, aged 25 years, and
residing near the creamery at Johnlow
cu, about two miles from Newniansville,
Clarion county, committed a most ro
volting crime in the forenoon of last Sat
urday, cutting tbe throat of her 6-year-
old illegitimate sou, John Hopkins,
from ear to ear, using a razor. She was
committed to jail at Clarion lu the even
ing of the same day. After murdering
hor son she attempted to end ber own
life, but hor courago failed her.
'Squire M. C. Willing of Lickingville
held an inquest on Saturday when the
following particulars were obtained
through the evidence: The dead boy
was the illegitimate son of the woman,
who was married to Leslie Greely two
Hfears ago last November. Hor maiden
name was Moore and she was lert an or
phan at an early age and was reared by
Mr. and Mrs. David Mercer of Ediuboro.
Tbe Greeley s occupied a squalid borne
of three rooms near Johnlowen, In Clar
ion county, and were in very destitute
circumstances. On'Friday Mrs. Grwley
received a letter from Mrs. Kinsler, a
sister of ber husband, which reproached
ber for not offering her husband more
assistance aud declared that Mrs. Greeley
was responsible for their poverty. Gree
ley went to see his sister on Saturday
morning, which was the sixth birthdav
ol the murdeied son Soon alter he left
the house Mrs. Greeley secured his razor
aud taking her boy in bor lap cut bis
throat with the tool. The gash was six
and one-hall inches long aud the jugular
vein and windpipe were both severed.
She then undressed the boy, laid thedead
body on a black underskirt and then
slashed at ber own throat. Ihe cut was
j ear the chin and, although it bled freely
is not serious. The woman's courage
then failed her and when she saw her
husband approaching she ran out into
the road and told him of her terrible
deed. Tbe husband called a neighbor,
John Harmon, and the two men went
into the house aud then notified the
neighbois. Constable Goal took the
women into custody and after tbe in
quest conveyed her to the Clarion couuty
jail.
The wound in tbe womau's throat is
two and one-half inches iu length. Dur
ing the time that the doctor was dressing
it she seemed collected and assisted him,
holding the pins and assisting iu placing
bandagos. The dead child was buried
by the overseers of the poor on Sunday
morning. The clothing be wore at tho
time he was murdered were bis only
garments and ho was buried In them.
His mother was so scantily clothed tat
neighbors were compelled to furnish
wraps that she might be taken to Clarion.
Public opinion is divided as to the san
ity of tfie women, many believing that
the woman deliberately took tbe life of
her child and intended to end ber own as
the best way to rid herself of tho misery
and poverty of ber condition. But.surely,
no rightmindod person could commit
such r revolting crime.
