These measurements were taken in the borough and can hardly be said to give the lull amount of snow full for the reason that often much of the snow would melt before it could bo meas ured, and a test taken on the hills would have glvon a more accurate record. There were 23 zero mornings during the winter, February JO being the coldest, 21 degrees below. Two deaths occurred Iu the household of II. P.

Tho trade extension excursion of the Merchants and Manufacturers of the city of Pittsburg passed Tionesta yesterday afternoon on schedule time, and a stop of forty-live minutes was made at this sta tion, giving the largo delegation a chance to visit and inspect the town. Their train, which consists of eleven coaches, was drawn by two locomotives, and made an impressive sight as it steamed into the station. Representative citizens of the tow n met the train and escjirted upward of a hundred ot the visitors over the bridge, w hero they quickly dispersed and proceeded lo look up the business inter esis in w hich they wore most igterested. The visitors expressed themselves as greatly pleased with the beauty of our town and seemed to enjoy their shoi t stay Immensely. Ooorgo Nollis, living near Stowarts Run, met with a dangerous accident while driving down tho hill on the oppo site side of the river last Friday morning. His wifo and baby wore In the buggy with him, and asecond buggy was bitched on behind, thus making quite a pressure on the harness, a part of which gave way allowing the buggy to strike the horse's hoels and he became unmanageable. Mrs. Nellis was thrown out aud badly bruised but sustained no permanent injuries. In her arms she held the baby, which mi raculously escaped Injury. My. Nellis was thrown with his chest agaiust a rock aud severely bruised, but at last accounts was getting along all ritsbt. About a month ago he cut his foot vory badly with an ax, aud it was to have this injury dressed that he was coming to town. Significant but not surprising results followod an inquiry, in a school In anoth er city, recently inado into the typeof boy who smokes cigarettes. A record of 20 boys iu school who dld'nofrsmoko and 20 who did was kept for a long period. It was found that of the cigarette smokers 19 wore older than the average in thoir (trade, 10 had bad manners, the deport montof 18 and the physical condition of 12 were poor, 11 were iu bad moral and IS in bad mental condition; 10 were street loafers, and !! failed of promotion. Of tho non-smokers none were street loaf ers, only two failed of promotion, and In all the other mentioned particulars the record showed no moro than two who eould be classed with the smokers. Street Inaufig, bad manners, poor scholarship and cigBretto smoking seem lo go to gether." While Frank Rayliom, wifo and baby, of Muybuig, were on their way home a day or two ago, their horso stum bled and (ell on the narrows above New town Mills, and in struggling to get up tho horso went over the bank into the pond. They got him looso from the hniKY before ho went over tlio bank Ho lodged on soino brush when about halfway to the water's edge and was last thore until some assistance arrived. I hey cot a rope around his nock and let him slide into the pond and then led him out apparently none tlio worse for his tumble and bath. A broken buggy shaft and a part of the harness swept away by the water was all the damage done. The ao cideut happened about twenty rods above where Kribbs A Kay'shorse wasdrowncd two wooks 11-0, where the road is wide enough lor teams to as each other. It Is both an Interesting and an Im portant fact that the two men who are to work together, in double harness, as it were, as constructors of tho Panama Canal, the chief of stall' and tlio Hold mar shal, are like Damoti and Pythias. They hare been lifelong chums. Horn in Crawford county, Pennsylvania, fifty yoars ngn, Mr. Sliontz went west with his family. He graduated from Monmouth (Illinois) Collego In 1870. Among his classmates was John F. Wallace. Wal lace's father was tho president of the col lege. The friendship that started be tween tho two youths at school has con tinued throughout their manhood. They speak of each other as "John" and "Teddy." Now tho chums find tliem- selvos hitched to the same big wagon, and each realizes that he must pull lor all lie Is worth. It Is safe to say that they will work harmoniously and effectively togothor. Fron Review of Reviews for May. .
