All Hallowe'en occurs noxt Tuesday

In last week's issue we made mention
of the lumber firm of Morrison & Bell,
of Morribell, W. Va., having sold their
tract aud interests to Shields it Gross,
formerly of Winlack. This was only
partly true. J. Scott Bell sold his one
half interest and R. M. Morrison sold
one-sixth of his interest, retaining an
equal third with his present partners.
Mr, Bell has since purchased a tract of
2,500 acres on the Dry Fork Railroad,
about seven miles from Hambloton, W.
Va., which be will operate. The consid
eration in the last deal was f :S6,000, which
Mr. Bell paid cash. Scott is a hustlor
and we hope to hear of him having tho
best kind of luck. Marionville Express.
It is natural to be easy with boys
who have drifted iuto tha foolish habit of
copying the toughs' actions, as the Frank
lin Nows says; yet this geutloness with
the young hoodlum has its bad effect. If
the boy who throws rottou fruit at cars,
or smashes the windows in vacant build
ings, or loafs around corners using pro
fanity and making a general nuisance ol
himself, wore dealt with unmercifully,
thousands of young men would bo
turned from that sort of idiocy and,
through fear of the law, might grow up
decent instead of filling places in reform
atories and prisons. Always there are
parents and friends, and the weeping
child who "will never do it any more
and the question is bard to settle, even in
court. But tho "fresh" youngster and
the boy who necib) a thrashing at home,
and does not get it, should not lie al
lowed too much rope, even if it does seoin
a nitv to give them a chance to think
I things over in somo place provided for
young toughs.
R. T. and L. A. Buzard, of this place.
F. K. Bradsbaw, of Pittsburg, and E. M,
Catnpboll, of Elk county, have purchased
a half interest of a 40,000 acre timber tract
of the United States Spruce Lumber Co,
of Marlon, Va. lion. C. W. Amsler aud
J, C. Campbell, formerly of Forest coun
ty, are the owr.ers of the other half in
toroat and have been operating on the
tract for some months past. Amsler and
Campbell, W. E, Henderson of this place,
with some others, have an 18,000 acre
tract adjoining that of the United Stales
Spruce Lumber Co., on which a large
mill is being operated. The Hassinger
Lumber Co, also has a large body of Urn
ber In the same neighborhood, which
would seem to indicate that the lumber
men of this section consider it promising
territory. Sheffield Observer.
The early and persistent heralding of
news, by those who know absolutely
nothing about what they are talking or
writing about, to the effect that small
game was plentiful in this section, has
bad the effect to bring in hordes of "city
sportsmen," each with a brace of dogs,
bent on "cleaning up" the neighborhood
of its large (?) surplussage of the feath
ered tribe. But they have about all
gone home empty-handed and crestfallen.
Grouse or pheasants, which the "State
Game Commission" reported as very
buudant this season, are almost a non
entity,' both here and elsewhere (n north
western Pennsylvania, and these city
gentlemen have made the discoveiy that
the s. g. o. has about as much knowledge
of the true Btate of affairs in the game
line as the proverbial pig knows about
war.
Saw Mill and Dwelling House Burned.
The Slgel correspondent of the Brook-
ville Republican says: "J. W, Daniels'
saw mill, at Claringtou, was burned on
Tuesday evening, Oct. 10, 1905. The ori
gin of the fire is not geneially known.
I say generally, for some one knows, as
there bad been no fire lighted to run the
mill for some months. Mr. Daniels' loss
will reach at least 2,000. Kind men
woiked valiantly and saved the tool
house, or his loss would have been much
more. Jimmy will think he has all tbe
bad luck. On Sunday afternoon, the
15th, as he was hitching his driver, Nelly,
to the buggy, she dropped dead. We
learned also over the 'phone of the burn
IbgofBurt Kerr's house, at Millstone.
His loss Is heavy, as all his household
effects were burned, and his wife being
sick barely escaped with ber life."
Jos. A. Starncr Accidentally Killed.
A dispatch from Kane, Pa., under date
Oct. 23, says: ,
'Joseph A. Starner, a survivor of tbe
Civil war was accidentally shot and in
stantly killed while hunting near this
place on Saturday. He placed a double-
barrel shotgun against a pile of cord
wood, aud one of tbe sticks foil against
the gunlocks, discharging the weapon,
both loads entering Starner'a side. He
was 70 years of age. His wife and several
children survive him."
The foregoing undoubtedly refers to a
former citizen of this vicinity who re
sided on tbe old Casper Isert farm, Ger
man Hill, for several years, and who re
moved to a place near Kane about a year
ago, Mr. Starner is well remembered
by many of our citizens, who will be
greatly shocked and grieved to learn of
this tragic affair. Mi. Starner was a man
who was well liked by the people in bis
community, a good neignbor and a moral
upright citizen.
