WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3, 1900.
From Snufh Africa.
Kditor Rkpublicai?: Many times I
linve plnnntHi to write to your very in
teresting paper that makes its mott wel
come visits to South Africa and every
time I have failed to find the time. I
will try to do so now, going back some
in time to begin.
You have all been Interested more or
loss lu the visit of Kev. and Mrs. Sallow
to South Africa, and their vUit has been
to us a very reat pleasuie indeed, for we
don't have many such pleasures. They
aritved In May and we were In Natal
then to a preliminary Conference In
which many matters were discussed and
given Into the bands of cmnuittoes to
investigate and report at the Conference
in October. Tnis would be a groat help
as many things peculiar to a foieign mis
sionary conference would come up for
decision.
The last day of August Rev. Sellew and
wile came to us at Geriniston, remaining
three. weeks. How we enjoyed having
them lu our home you cannot know until
you have spent nearly four years on a
foreign field. They were made a great
blessing to us and to the work we rep
resented. October 5: h we left Gormiston for Na
tal, the "Oaiden Colony" of South Africa,
to attend the first South African Confer
ence of the Free Methodist church. In
the Transvaal from March until October
or November no rains fall and every
thing la dry and brown, and the dust
storms are often terrible. Starting In the
morning all day we traveled over the
open treoless veldt, which has such
desolate appearance this time of year,
until night closed upon us shutting out
all views Interesting or uninteresting.
You who have traveled in England know
that each car is divided into compart
ments, ench having two long seats run
ning across the car and facing each other
and serving at night lor teds. It is the
same here, so with nightfall we prepared
our beds and slept as much as we could.
In the morning what a different view met
our eyes hills and mountains, rivers
and tree, and green foliage everywhere.
We were In Natal and the scenery was
simply beautiful all the remaining dis
tance to Durban, which we reacted about
one p. m. We did some "shopping" and
then spent the night at the missiou house
of the South African General Mission.
This missionary body has at its head the
Rev. Andrew Murray. The next morn
ing we started by train down the coast to
Fair View, about sixty miles from Dur
ban. All along the way were beautiful
flowers growing wild, roses, calls lilies
and various other kinds, while only a few
rods from us and in full view were the
waves breaking on the rocks and sand,
the waves of the Indian Ocesn. We
crossed nearly thirty streams flowing
into the ocean and at these places we went
up the river a short distance to a narrow
place, where we cross the river and go
back down and skirt the coast, arriving
Saturday noon at Fair View Mission.
On the Sabbath we had the privilege ol
attending the dedication of a native chapel
about five miles away. It was a very
neat brick building with thatch loof and
was built entirely by the natives. Brick
Is cheaper In this country than wood, as
the brick is made here while all lumber
must be imported, as the trees of this
country are not used for making It. At
the service we attended they gave about
twenty-five dollars, a large sura for one
native congregation to give, as their
wages do not even compare with that of
a white man.
The conference was new to the natives
but they were much interested and their
questions and discussions on matters of
vital importance to them showed they
were thinking and were mentally capable
of grasping things above that for which
many people give them credit. Some of
the subjects causing most discussion were
libola (polygamy), course of study for
native evangelists, dress, and various
other matters. 1 might explain that
libola is the paying of cattle for a wife.
But it is a big enough subject for a sep
arate article, so I will not try to discuss
its various phases in this letter. The
conference was a very profitable meeting
and much of God's presence was felt es
pecially in the meetings on the Sabbath.
Mr. A. E. Haley was ordained to deacon's
orders, and J. W. Haley and Mr. Smith
were ordained both descons aud elders.
As the business could not be finished on
Saturday we bad another session on
Monday which closed with (he reading of
the appointments. The preachers will
not be changed here as at home, every
two or three years, but only when the
work or the health of the missionaries
demands it. At this conference only
three changes were made, namely: J. W.
Haley aud wife from Pondoland to Fair
View; Jules Ryff and wife from Fair
View to QermiHton, Transvaal, and us
from Germiston to Pondolaud. We were
delighted with our change. I remarked
that if the committee had asked me to
choose my place I would very likely have
chosen the one they gave us. At Ger
miston our work was entirely among the
men and boys who come there to work in
the mines, kitchens, etc., while here we
have the men, women and children in
their homes. There is here much more
mission work for a woman to do. The
conference over we immediately returned
to Germiston to pack up and in two weeks
were back at Fair View, a distance of
nearly six hundred miles, where we
would start by ox cart for our new sta
tion about sixty miles away. Much of
our furniture we had sold at quite a sac
rifice as freight would cost to Fair View
two dollars or more a hundred, but we
kept some of the necessary furniture,
dishes, etc.
As it is now bed time and I must do
some other writing as foreign p st goes
tomorrow. I will save our trip by ox
waon for a future letter, God's blessing
is upon us on our new and most inter
esting stution and I have much to tell
you about It when I can find the time.
One heathen girl arose lust Sabbath and
publicly chose the Lord and we are
looking for many of these precious jewols
to be won for Jesus. "Not by might or
by power, but by my spirit, sailh the
Lord." Our present address is, Green

New Officials Inaugurated.
Monday of this week, the first of the
new year, was inauguration day at the
court bouse, all the new officials being
sworn into office on that day, at the same
time the old set stepped dowu and out.
The changes, with a couple of exceptions
wore complete, beginning with the new
Associate Judge, Perry C. Hill, who as
sumes the place held by Judge Dotterer
for the past five years, and who retires
with a clean record left behind. J. C.
Geist was again inducted into the office
of Prothonotary, Register, Ac, s posi
tion wbicb he has very ably and accepta
bly filled for the past three years. A.
W. Stroup took the keys to the Sheriff's
office, succeeding Geo. W. Nobllt, who
has vory creditably conducted the office
for the past term, and who retires with
the good opiuion and well wishes of a
host of friends. In tbe County Com nis
shiners' office the new board consists of
Leonard Agnew, Andrew Wolf aud
Philip Emert, who take the places of
Conrad Burbenn, A. K. Sbipe and Heory
Winegard. The retiring board has ac
complished much that will be for the
permanent good of the county, and in
doing so have, as a matter of course, en
countered criticism, but as time goes on
and their acts are calmly viewed, it will
be seen that they have performed their
duties conscientiously and well, aud have
administered tbe trying duties of their
office with more than average skill and
perfection. Tbe now board of County
Auditors Is composed of W. H. Stiles,
Charles F. Klinestlver and Sam. T. Car
son, Mr. Stiles being a re-elected mem
ber. The duties will not be entirely new
to the now auditors, all of whom have
bad experience in that line ol business,
and are fit successors to the worthy gen
tlemen who retire, Geo. Holeman and B.
A. McClosky. J. B. Eden and J. P.
Castner are the new Jury Commission
ers, succeeding Ernest Sibble and Lewis
Wagner.
To both the new and the retiring offi
cials we extend the compliments of the
season, wishing all a happy aud prosper
ous future.
The board of County Commissioners
organized by electing Mr. Agnew Presi
dent of the board, and then made the fol
lowing appointments: Clerk, J. T. Dale;
County Solicitors, Ritchey A Carringer;
Janitor, Cbas. Hunter; Steward of the
County Home, Ferd Wenk; Matron of
County Home, Mrs. F. Wenk; County
Physician, Dr. W. G. Morrow.
The County Auditors met on Monday
and organized by electing James D. Davis
as their clerk. They will begin the an
nual audit of the county accounts on
Monday next.
The Jury Commissioners are engaged
in filling the wheel for the ensuing year,
with J. D. Davis as their clerk.

John Franklin Miner, a residont for
many years of New Brighton, Pa., died
at his borne in that city, on the 2lt of
December just past, It being bis GSih
birthday. Mr. Mitier's active business
Interests in bis locality made him one of
the most prominent figtues in the sec
tion where ho spent his life. Many For
est county people will learn of his de
mise with sorrow, he having quite an
extensive acquaintanceship in Jenks and
Howe townships of this county. He was
the sou lor member of the firm of Miner,
Greeu & Co., who lumbered extensively
at Byromtowu for several years. He is
survived by the widow and three child
ren, oue of whom is John Read Miner,
well and favorably known by many of

Tbe Brookvllle Republican tells of tbe
suicide, on the 20th ult., of Joseph Mont
gomery, who has in ml o his home for
somo time at Clariugton, this county, and
was well known to most of the residents
of Barnett township. He was a former
resident of Armstrong county, where his
parents reside:
Joe Montgomery, who was for a num
ber of years in charge of the stage route
between this place and Clariugton, com
mitted suicide at tbe Union Uoiel, where
he bad been boarding for the past week,
at about 10:30 o'clock Tuesday night,
shooting himself through the h sd with a
32 calibre revolver, bis death resulting at
about 1:00 o'clock. Mr, Montgomery had
been In town for Beveral days, aud bad
been driuklng heavily and seemed de
spondent, but he had given no indica
tions of an intention to com mitt suicide.
Coming Into the hotel about fifteen miu
utes before the commission of tbe rash
act be went t his room. Here he re
moved his coat and vest, and seating
himself on the edge of the bed, pressed
tbe revolver to his bead and fired. His
aim was true, and although he continued
to breathe for some time, Dis. A. F. Rai
nier and II. P. Thompson, who were
hurriedly summoned, were unable to do
anything for him, and he died as stattd.
Tbe deceased was about 35 years of age
and unmarried, and in the days before
his besetting sin had laid its hand upon
bis faculties he was successful in bis bus
iness atTalrB. He was a genial, kind heart
ed fellow, gifted with tbe faculty of mak
ing friends, and was his own worst en
emy.

cause, This fact alone should ra. e peo

Nowhere will you find clothes-to-order
quite as cleverly made as we will
do for you, nor for so little money.
If the price does not make any dif
ference to you, keep on going to your
favorite tailor. If the price does make
a difference, if you want to be well
dressed at the least possible cost, let
us make your winter suit or overcoat
and you save from ten to fifteen
dollars.

licnita coal, coka, bard coal, wood or any fuel

breakfast room in the morning without kindling
new tire. Guaranteed to hold tire from
Saturday night to Monday morning.

construction throughout. A patent
ed steel collar connects the elbow
draft to the stove body and cannot
open by action of the fiercest heat
The patented compound hinge
on the lower draft cannot warp and
the draft door closes air-tight by its
own weight. The guaranteed
smoke-proof feed door
prevents smoke, dust or gas
escaping when fuel is put in
the stove. Perfect results,
therefore, from any fuel. The
heavy fire box protects the
points where other stoves
burn out first, and insures
great durability.
Ask to see the patented
dustless ash cover for re
moving ashes. Our method
h-is the only clean way.
