It is unofficially staled that iheschod ulu of the up-river afternoon train is to be materially changed in a short time, aud that it will leave Oil City much earlier, about :i:30. This change will please moHt people a little bit, and the Oil City fisher men a whole lot, giving them several hours moro of daylight wherein to land the big fish and consume the contents of the bait box. For several days after the appalling catastrophe at San Francisco, the family and othor friends of Alex. Dale, who has bfn making 1) is headquarters in lhat cltv. wore greatly concerned as to his safety. A telegram recoived Frilay by his brother, J. T. Dale, allayed their fears, however, convoying the welcome information that he was safe and sound. The transmission of private messages from the stricken city was well nigh iin possible for several days after the disas ter, and poople iu every quarter of the country having friends in California were naturally very greatly worried.

The burning of Oil City's elentrlo power plant ou Saturday night has left the denizens of that town In almost utter darkness since, and has entirely, for the time being, shut off travel by trolley. The plant was an extensive one, the property loss being estimated at $250,000, with only about $75,000 insurance. It will likely be some time before the city will come out of Hb darkness and the people be able to ride on the street cars. Manager W. B.

One day rocently be was missing and when found was sleep ing peacefully in one of the children's beds, having slipped up the back stairs of the house unobserved. -Oil City Blizzard. About the only topic of conversation during the past week has been the great calamity at San Francisco. It Is difficult even with the complete newspaper ac counts lo realize the scope of the disaster so thorough has been the awful work of destruction. But soon this will have practically passed out of the minds of those who were not directly in the calam ity's wake, and other thoughta and top ics will take Its place. The American people are too busy to think long on one subject. Parker B. Wright was accidentally killed while breaking a log pile near bis borne in the Ponderay valley near Col- ville, Wash., on March 28, l'JOO. He was thirty years old and leaves a wife and baby boy to mourn his death.

Two fleets four each of boats and barges comprised the out put. TLe coal flat industry will not flourish to the usual extent during this season, the price of hemlock being such as to make it unprofitable at the price the coal combine bas set upon the flats. The lumbermen find that it does Dot pay to put twenty-dollar material into boats, where an average of only $11 per thous and is realized. Franklin reports another case of sui cide by the rubber hose and gas process. On Saturday night Charles B. Henderson, supposed to reside at Raymilton, Venan go county, put an end to bis existence In a manner similar to that employed by the three other men who committed sui cide in that city within the past month. The last victim had taken a room at the Grant house, and some time during the night bad moved bis bed to the stove, disconnected a rubber hose, turned on the gas and Inhaled It. He was found cold in death Sunday afternoon. This Is the seventh suicide In Franklin since January. O. W. and F. C. Proper last week drilled in a well on the Collins lands at the mouth of Fox Creek, In Green town ship, that promises to open up a new oil field. At 800 feet 21 feet of Clarion sand was found and it was given a forty quart shot on Monday. The well shows up for a good producer, the oil being of the white variety. Samples brought here show It to be almost as clear as water aud remarkably free from sediment. It is to be hoped that more of It may be found. The Proper Bros, bave an unlimited amouut of territory there and will go right ahead and give the locality a thor ough test. There Is a possibility that the skele ton of the man found in the woods at Quaker Run. on the P. R. R.. near the York State line, details of which bave re cently appeared In the papers, might have been those of Emmett S. Knapp, former chief of police of Meadvllle. In July,1903, Knapp arrested a man charged with murder committed in Rochester, N. Y. Knapp took tte prisoner from Mead vllle to the New York state line and de livered him to the Rochester authorities, Since that time be bas not been heard from. He is known to have carried gold watch, Btich as was found near the skeleton, and the father, who resides at Randolph, bas asked the ooroner to hold the articles found In order to make fur ther investigation.

Two Houses Burned at Mayburg. On Thursday last the quiet of our little town was abruptly broken by the alarm of Are. The fire was discovered to be in the house occupied by Geo. VanValin. Although beroio efforts were made to stay the flames they provod futilo aud the fire progressed with astonishing ra pidity, reaching the houso occupied by Frank Kayborn, aud in a very Tew min utes both bouses were enwrapped in flamos. The heat from the burning buildiugs was almost unendurable and for a time it looked as though the entire town might be wiped out. Had the wind not been favorable no power could havo saved the town from destruction. The town is well supplied with water plugs anil other facilities for fighting fire, but unfortunately tho mill was shut down for repairs and there was not sufficient steam to work the large pump properly. This Is rather unfortunate for Mr. Ray-, horn. Just two years ago he was burned out, saving little or nothing of his house hold goods. James Mack and wife, who were staying with his brother-in-law, Mr. VauValin, were also considerable losers, saving only the clothing they had on. Mr. VauValin lost most all of his house hold goods also. The buildings were tbe property of the Company, aud no doubt will be quickly replaced. The loss will probably exceed $-.i,000, with no insur ance. Snow Ball. Ninth Annual Gomincoccincnt. The ninth annual commencement ex ercises of tbe Tionosta High School were held in the Court House, Tuesday eve ning, April 24, 1906. The room was very prettily decorated with palma and flow ers, the class colors, pink and green, be ing used to good advantage. Tbe class motto, "No Victory Without Labor," also In the class colors, was a prominent part of tbe decorations. The number of graduates this year was twelve and a very entertaining and In structive program was rendered by them, to the great enjoyment of the people who filled tbe building to overflowing. Rev. W, O. Calhoun, pastor of the M. E. church, offered the Invocation. The Salutatory was given by Lenore Rilchey, who gave it in a very pleasing manner. Her principal thought was self- dependence, concentrated thought, and perseverance with proper aim in view. The Cross or Crescent, by Evelyn Grove, was a vivid description of the contest be tween the Mohammedan and tbe Christian religions from the birth of Mohammed to the fall of Constantinople, relating as prominent the battles of Tours, War of the Crusades, and the widespread belief of Mohammed through Asia and Africa. Tbe Progressive Nation, by OllveChilds, was a short synopsis of the relation of the United States to other nations. Tbe pr jib- iuent parA were alwafs an antagonist to despotism, a strong advocate of arbitra tion, tbe promoter of free schools and first in the line of progress. Oero contra Cataliue was given by Roy Hood, a Latin oration consisting of sixty lines of Cicero's first oration against Cataline, for the purpose of representing a part of the course of study. The readings, "A Roman Legend," by Sarah Carson, "Tbe Green Mountain Jus tice," by Louie Foreman and "Diamond Cut Diamond," by Alena Gerow, were delightful features ' of the eveuing and showed great talent on tho part of the young ladies. The Class History, by Maude Canfield, was written in the narrative form and gave an account of the class in the several studies taken up by them during the past year. A subtle vein oi burner ran through the composition and it was thoroughly enjoyod. The Class Prophecy in the form of a conversation between Essie Scowden and F.mina Arner, was bright, spicy and highly humorous. Chimney Coruer Graduates, an essay by George Hunter, was very interesting He clearly proved that all education is essentially self-education and In tbe truest sense every graduate Is a chimney corner graduate. The Valedictorian, Marie Dunn, said farewell for the class of 1000 In a pleasing manner. She called the attention ol tbe class that higher schools were waiting for them, but this school, since it was their home school, would be remembered long est, and that parting was but another phase of nature at all times not understood. Tbe program was interspersed with selections by Strieker's Orchestra, of Warren, Sweet little Elizabeth Bowman acted as flower girl and carried off first honors. The Class Address, by Dr. J. George Becht, of the Clarion State Normal School, on "Lend a Hand," abounded in practical suggestions not only to those in the edu cational world, but for people in every walk of life. The genial doctor bas many warm friends here. The presentation speech, by T. F. Rilcbey, showed his deep Interest In the welfare of the schools. Ue complimented the graduates on their year's work and gladly gave them their reward a di ploma. The Class of 1906 go out well equipped for the battles of life. They have proved that they are willing to put forth every effort to realize their Ideals, and in this for the past year they have been aided by an ablo,conscientious principal and by an excellent Board of Directors, whose fust thought is lo promote tbe welfare of tbe schools in our town. The baccalaureate sermon was deliv ered ata union service on Sunday eve ning at the Presbyterian church, by the pastor, Rev. Paul J. Slonaker.

The Forest County National Bank has been asked to roceive subscriptions fur the relief of Buflerors by the San Francis co horror on behalf of tho Pennsylvania Branch of tbe American National Red Cross, and has expressed its willingness to act In such capacity, and lo transmit all moneys to Mrs. A.J.Cassalt, treasurer ol the society, 5th aud Chestnut street, Philadelphia. The bauk will receipt for all sums contributed and forward same promptly to the Red Cross society. It would seem unnecessary to make more than mere mention of this fact in order to start the subscriptions. The appalling condition of the people of San Francisco surely appeals to benevolent humanity. All classes are suffering for the necessi ties (jf life and doubtless will continue to for some time to come. The American heart bas responded nobly to tbe call of distress that bas come out of this lament able disaster, and yet the need is very great. Let the response continue to be prompt and generous.

They induced him to paiut one Devoe, by agreeing to bear any loss it might bring bim. One of his houses chalked-off, and he called for a settlement. The boot was on tbe wiong foot. Lead and-oil is the cbalker; not Devoe. It was a mistake, not a bunco. If Devoe chalked-off as lead-and-oil does, it wouldn't stand a ghost of a chance In tbe market. Yours truly, F. W.
