Tuesday, June 14, is tbe 127th anni-
versary of the adoption of the Stars and
Stripes as the flag of tbe United States,

nuaroustom, has Issued a circular asking
that tho observance be mads general and
is making a special effort to Interest tho
people throughout the country to the ex
tent of a general displby of the American
Hag on that day.
John Carson, son of Jerry Carson,
who lives near Salem, Venango county,
was killed in a freight train collision at
Struthers, near New Castle, on the B. A O.
railroad, on Suuday last. He was a flag
man on the road, and by some misunder
stand irg of orders bis train pulled out
upon the main track and tho caboose, in
whi-'b he was riding, was run into by
another freight train. His body was
brought home, and was burled near New

Thursday, June 1st, Mrs. Samuel Sig-

house and lot will also be offered for sale.
The bouse is a new 10-room cottage, new
ly painted, with an acre of ground and all
neoded outbuildings, together with a fine
fruit and chestnut orchard. A splendid
o portunity for anyone desirous of se
curing a pretty borne.
Severe frosts were reported from the
hill districts Sunday morning, and it is
believed about everything in the line of
fruit has been killed. None of the seeded
crops were sufficiently advanced to be
seriously injured, although some of tho
oats fields are said to have been nipped,
but will recover if no further trouble
comes on. Some of the early gardens
will have to be replanted. Dowu here in
tho valloy the fog protected the gardens,
which ao far are doing only fairly well
owing to tbe cold, sour weathor.
That the good don't always die
young, as the old saw would have us be
lieve, is clearly evidenced by the lively

tained its 23d birthday on Monday. Iu
fact by Its excellent goodness has tbe
Blizzard beau kept alive and well, and a
money maker for its enterprising pro
prietors, Messrs. Bowon A McKnigbt.
Of all the good things in Oil City tbe
Blizzard Is the best, and like some other
'staples" has made that city latnous, and
long may it live to keep its town on tbe
map.

Lewis II. Smith, who died in New
York city Wednesday morning, will be
kindly remembered by hundreds of tho
old-time oporators, who have lollowed up
tbe business from Pitholeand Petroleum
Center to Bradford, Cherry Grove, Ball
town aud Sisleisville. "Low" Smith was
bluff and hearty individual of enorm
ous vitality and genial personality. He
never forgot his friends and was always
ready to moot an old-time acquaintance
with a cordial handshake. Mr. Hmitu
had witnessed the ups and downs of the
oil industry for fully forty years aud met
rebuffs with the same dauntloss couiage
with which be achieved success. He was
r -..!...! 1 -1-
of an inveutive turn oi mum aim uo-
signed a number of practical devices in
connection with drilling oil wolls that
proved successful and are still employed
by modem oil well contractors.-Oil City
Derrick.
A writer in the Bolivar Breeze voices
the sentiment of a lot of us when be says
"There isn't anything I wouldn't give to
be 10 years old, to run bare-foot, to go
down to the creek and fish when tbe
bullheads, suckers and chubs are biting;
to go swimming Iu the old bole by the
elm when tbe days are hot and sultry; to
visit town when the big circus conies, to
gorge myself with tbe first apples that
are ripe in the harvest time, to go down
to the creek bottoms after butternuts and
to the ridges after chestnuts when frost
combs; to go coasting when snow covers
the ground aud the hill roads are slip
pery. To be a boy again would be glor
ious, wouldn't It?"
Charles W. Smith, late business man
ager of the Hod' Business College, at
Warren, Pa., has resigned to engage In
anothor line of business and Prof. L. J.
Holmes has been selected to take bis
place. Much credit is due Mr. Smith for
his able efforts toward the upbuilding ol
this school, the most successful of its
kind ever-conducted in this territory.
By the acquisition of L. J. Holmes the
faculty has gained one of tbe most exper
ienced teachers of this section. He has
been identified with Warren county
schools for many years and is well known
throughout the county. With such an
acquisition tbe institution will take on
new life and grow better than ever.
( One day last weok a daring thief,
right in broad daylight, gained access to
the billiard parlor and cigar store of our
old friend Judge A. J. McCray, in the Oil
Exchange block, Titusville. Mr. Mc
Cray kept bis money in a sack which
was placed in a locked cabinet. Tbe
thief broke the cabinet open and also
took the change from the cash drawer.
In all be secured about $16. Now, that's
what comes of leaviug a good law-biding
community and getting out among ras
cals. While living in Forest county,
Judge, (barring a few dimes for cigars
when you sold a Bpecial breed of dogs to
railroad conductors) you never lost a
cent, and were perfectly safe In leaving
your wallet lay around in most any old
place.
It's the first real decent one cf the
seas'n, and we guess it will "hold them
all for awhile." Our reliable friend
John Wilson, whose larui is just over tho
Harmony township line, in Venango
county, went with a few of bis friends
last Sunday to visit an old rattlesnake
don near his place. They killed four
monster "she" rattle's. Opening them
they found in each snake 9 well devel
oped eggs just ready to be "laid." Now,
John baa examined other rattlesnake
eggs and be finds they average three
snakes to the egg, so he calculates that
the 30 eggs would hatch out 103 rattlers,
and that they'd all live. Hi- trip out,
therefore would net 112 rattlers slain,
counting the four mother snakes. If
anybody can beat this lor a snake story,
at any time during the season, we don't
want to hear of it.
Rev. F. E. Glass, a former Free
Methodist minister of this place, but
who is now pastor of the Katberine Street
F. M. church in Pittsburg, writes to the
Hidgway Advocate as follows: "My wife
has boon sick in bed with infiammatoiy
rhouinatisin for nearly four mouths, and
at one time her life bung in the balance
on account of her heart, but she is on tbe
gain now, aud is able to be drawn out to
the table for her meals, but Is not able to
stand ou her feet. We feel very thankful
to the Lord for sparing her life to us. We
like our new home very well, and my
health is improving richt along, and I
expoct to be as well as ever I was soon.
Bossie gaye up ber position at Jamestown
and came home aud took caro of her
mother. If ber health will stand the
strain, she has a line opening here iu the
city for profitable work."
By the following item taken from tbe
Titusville Herald it will be observed that
tbe genius of a former Forestoniau is not
waning in the least: "Josiah G. Winger
of Grand Valley, Pa., la the inventor of a
remarkable invention called the drill
feed, which dispenses with the temper
screw in tbe drilling of wells and which
makes a salvage of 75 per cent, of labor to
tbe driller. Mr. Winger ia now drilling
with his drill feed at Newton, near Giand
Valley, for the Stanton Oil company, and
welcomes all interested to witness the
performance of bis wondorful labor sav
ing drill leed. The well now drilling Is
a shallow one and but a lew days more is
required to complete it. That which has
heretofore been considered an impossi
bility has been accomplished, it is
claimed, by tbe invention of the drill
food. Mr. Winger is the Inventor of the
most scientific casing wrench and tongs
yet discovered. They are being manu
factured and sold by Beers Brothers &
Co., at Marion, Ind."
(iilbcrt McKiulcy Accidentally Killed.
Some of our exchanges note the acci
dental death on Monday, May 15th, of
Gilbert McKinlay, of Lansdale, near
Philadelphia. The item states tnat Mr.
McKinley was killed by an express traiu
while crossing the Reading railway
tracks iu front of the station at Lausdale.
That he was 80 years old aud leaves sev
eral chlldien, among them tbe Rev.
JamosS. McKinlay and Mrs. Margaret
Schmidt, of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Agnes
Doan, of Lansdale.
This bas reference, undoubtedly, to a
former well known citlzon of this section,
who moved to Lansdale many years ago.
Mr. McKinlay was one ot the pioneer
residents of this soction, and among the
older citizens of this community his
memory is still cherished and revered.
He lived for many yeais on a farm on
Hunter Run, iu Tionesta township, now
occupied by Fred Dryer, afterward mov
ing to tbe Sibbald farm, on the Allegheny
River, now owned by L. J. Hopkins.
He removed from this section about 37
years ago. He was a carpenter by traue,
and helped to oroct many of the older
class of houses in Tiouesta. His wife was
a daughter of tbe late Dr. Sibbald, well
remembered by our oldor citizens, Mr.
McKinlay was a Scotchman of the pur-
ext type, and bis storling honesty and
plain open-heartedness made him a citi
zen and friend much to be desired.

Letter to L. J. Hopkins,
Tionesta, Pa.
Dkaii Silt: Tho easiest business in
this world is dry goods; tbe reason is:
your customers want your stuff as much
as you want to soil it; they come-in; you
show it and sell It. That's the whole
business, except your buying the goods.
Devoe comes next. It saves money,
and people like money. They like some
body else's more than their own ; thoy
like to make it more than to save it; they
like to keep it perhaps as woll as to
make It.
Buildings run down fast, without paint;
poor paint is tho same. Dovoe Is tbe
means of stopping that leak ; a big ono.
All we' ve got to do, to soli Dovoe, is to
show that a man saves money by using it.

THERE IS POSI
TIVE MERIT
ABOUT THE
SHOES
There must be merit, quality, good workmanship, fit, style,
the best wearing qualities ; in fact, the Queen Quality Shoes
must combine all the superior points of a No. 1 shoe, otherwise
Queen Quality Shoes would not be sold in every, state, city and
village of the country.

DISTINCTIVE
RAIN COATS
FOR MEN.
When a clothing man tolls you that a garment is a "genuiue Craven-
ette," with tbe inference that you ueed
wink at bim. lie knows better he knows that tho rankest shoddy tbut
ever was woven may be converted into a "geuuitie Craveuette." He knows
that the process promises nothing beyond tho proofing that it does not im
prove the character of the cloth uor influence the tailoring even in the
slightest degree. Our label does. It insures fabrics of tho very highest
character, perfectly cravenelted, and a coat cut 52 inches lung, with full wido
skirts that will not drape around the wearer's I i in 1)9 like a woman's skirt.
