James Hopper lias with justice been
greeted aa tbe Kipling ol the Philippines.
The title fits better than ever now that he
lias given us that quaint story "Tbe
Struggles and Triumph of Isldro de loa
Maeslros" which appears in the current
McClures', After all we know so little
of tbe real life of our new subjects. Hop
per knows tbe Philippines as Kipling
knows India, and be tells us the things
we ought to know but don't. There Is
pathos in plenty In tbe lives of tbis wild
people. Tbe discovery, the christening,
and the education of Isldro is at tbe same
time pathetic, humorous, aud dramatic.
To read such a story is a rare privilege
G. W Osgood makes the following
weather report for the past month of
March: It rained on 3 days and snowed
18 days, leaving but 10 clear days during
the month. The total rainfall was but 21
inches, and tbe total snowfall 25J Inches.
Mercury reached the zero point on the
6th and 25tb; the 17th and 18th were very
cold days, and on tbe 23d the thormome
tor indicated 8 below zero, and on tho
24th, 10 below. It will surprise many,
no doubt, to learn that, while there has
been a wonderful dissimilarity in the
winters of 1004-5 anil 1905-6, the differ
ence lu tbe total amount of tbe snow fall
is less than 30 inches. In the former the
snow-fall was 84 iucbos, and thus far in
the present winter we have bad 64J Inch
es, with the balance of April yet to bear
from.
Does This Solve The Mystery ? .
About a month ago tbe Republican
gave an account of the discovory by Per
ry McCalmont and others, of President
of a mau'a footprints in the snow leaning
over tbe Ice towaid an air bole in the
river near that point, tbe particulars of
which our readers will doubtless recall.
The tracks all pointed (ne way and there
wore no indications that the man maKing
them had returned to the shore. The
men made diligent search but were un
able to find any clue as to what became of
the unknown traveler, and the conclu
sion was forced upon thnm that he had
unconsciously walked Into the air hole
and was drownod.
The following account of tbe finding of
a "floater" near East Brady, about 60
miles fartbor down the river, may bo a
solution of this mysterious affair:
"Sunday evening last about 6 o'clock,
while two young men were out In a skiff,
they found the dead body of an unknown
mail in the Allegheny. The floater was
lodged in a pile of driftwood. Tho body
was that of man about 45 years of ago,
and from appearances bad been in tho
water some tlino. The man was attirnd
iu black vest aud trousers, and blue Man
uel shirt, under which was a striped cot
ton shirt. The toeth were missing. Hair
and mustache light brown streaked with
gray. Evidently a laborer. There wsa
nothing on tbe body that would lead to
identification. In the pockets were found
money to the amount of $", a new pen
knife, aud a small half tone cut of J. Lee
PI n miner, late candidate for state treas
urer. There were no marks on the body
to indicate violence. The body was bur
ied Monday in the Brady's Bend ceme
tery after having been viowed by a cor
oner's jury, which rendered a verdict of
accidental drowning."
There are men coming and going to the
lumber camp iu the vicinity of President,
and it could be possible that a stranger
looking for work could be drowned and
not misHed.' Has the President mystery
any connection with tho finding of the
flloater at East Brady T Iu all probabili
ty it has.

RECENT DEATHS.
W, H. H. DOTTEBKR.
Tho citizens of Forest oonnty were
greatly startled and pained on Thursday
morning of last week to loam that Judge
Dntterer, of Kellettville, bad expired
suddenly without the slightest warning
or premonition of illness. Iu the morn
ing about 6 o'clock the Judge had risen,
and it being somewhat earlier than his
customary hour had returned to bed, and
as he laid down beside his wife be asked
her how she was feeling, she having been
somewhat Indisposed for a day or two
with grip. She replied that she could
hardly tell until she should get up and
stir about some. A moment later she
heard a slight sound which seemed to
emanate from her husband's throat and
she spoke to him but received no answer.
Sho quickly attempted to rouse him, but
life was extinct the soul bad passed out.
Apoplexv is assigned as the cause of
death by his physician.
William Henry Harrison Dotterer was
bom Dec. 4, 18')6, on the old homestead
near what is now known as Dotterer
station, in Rockland township, Venango
county, Pa., and died at bis home at
Kellettville, Forest county, Pa., March
29, Woo. Whon a young man he was
united in marriage with Miss Cather
ine Stover, at Scrubgrass, Pa., who
survives, together with the following
children born to this union: Hervel
A., of Gnltonville, Mis. Nettie Har
rington, of Kollettvillo, Charles, of West
Virginia, Mrs. John Walter and John
II., of Ostrander, Washington, Harry, of
Kellettville, Mrs. Kate McNaughton and
Mrs. Emma Blum, of Green township,
and Mrs. Clyde Reed, of Clarion, Pa.
Not long alter bis marriage be moved
lo Oil City where, during the stirring
days on Oil Creek, be was encaged in
bunting oil to Pittsburg. About the year
18117 be came to Forest county and was
engaged in rafting and running lumber
on Tionesta creek and tho Allegheny
river, following tLis avocation to within
a few vears nast. He was known as one
fof the safest pilots on the rivor. About
live years ago Mr. Dotterer moved to
Kellettville where be conducted a meat
market until a few months ago. He bad
recently completed a now residence
which he had fitted up with all the mod
ern conveniences and had just become
nlcoly aud comfortably settled in bis
new home.
In tbe spring of 1900 Mr. Dotterar was
nominated for Associate Judge by the
Republicans of Forest county and bis
election followed in tbe full. His five
years' incumbency in this honorable po
sition was a credit both to himself and
his county, his record being one to which
his friends can always point with pride.
Judge Dotterer was one of the substan
tial, straightforward and honorable citi
zens of our county, whose word could be
relied upon and whoso business transac
tions were always square and fair. In
every day life be was cheerful, resourco
ful aud iuduBtrious. It is not inappro
priate here to mentiou that be was the
lirst man to adopt irrigation in tne coun
ty. Where he farmed in Kingsley town
ship, on Ross Run, there was a large
siirinir on the side hill. It struck Lim it
could be utilized, so he laid a system of
wooden troughs along the lull side in a
systetnafio manner so that tbe same wat
ered his crops in the valley below, aud.
a he said, it Droved a great success, as
was evinced ty tne annuitant cropB ot
vegetables produced. As a man ne aid
his duty in all walks of life, and will
long be'remombered and respected by his
fellow citizens.

On the bright celestial shore.
Let us then press onward, upward,
And our grief to Jesus toll;
Ever knowing and believing
Ho tlooth all things well.

Dear Sir: Currie Hardware Co.. At
lantic City, N. J had beon dealing in
paint for more than twenty years; aud
last year found-out Dovoo. This la bow
they did it.
Bought two cans, took -oil' the labels,
sent to a chemist for analysis.
The chemist found it pure; and they
took our agoncy.
This is the way to find-out a paint; but
not every dealer cau do It. There ought
to be public provision for making good
things known without cost. It's a pity
American citizens haven't got it. The
people waut It, oven more than tho trade.
Yours truly,
