The Pennsylvania railroad has or dered that all stations along its lines shall hereafter keep at least one cat about the premises to clean out the ruts that destroy baggage and oth r goods deposited in the ware rooms, but we haven't noticed that the company bas advertised for a supply of felines. They'd likely be forthcom ing if tbe bint were'dropped. It is often desired to separate postage stamps that are stuck together without destroying the ruoj. This can be done by dipping the stamps in water for a few seconds only, shaking off the excess of water and heating with a match as much as possible without burning. The heat expands the water botweoo the stamps and separstes tbem, so that they can be easily pulled apart and ready for use, Gust T. Nelson was killod at Sheffield Friday while engaged in his duties on the Tionesta Valley railroad. He was a brakeman and was engaged in aiding tbe switching of a caboose into tbe Sheffield roundhouse. While doing this one foot caugbt in a frog on the track sod held him fat until be was run down by tbe train and killed. The body was badly mangled. A coroner's jury rendered a verdict of accidental datb, exonerating (rum blame all members of the train crew. Nelson was aged about 26 years and is survived by bis wife and two small c'hu'dr'e'n.

Owing to a serious defect in tbe pri mary election law many voters who have changed their residences slope last fall will bave no opportunity to vote at the June primary. Those who moved from one district to another cannot vote and no provision Is contained In the et for registration in the new district. This sort wholesale disfranchisement should be remedied at once. Tbe Legislature has no excuses for falling to do so. Stephen Etnick, one of Harmony township's well known residents, Is in danger of losing one ot his legs. Some years ago Mr. Einlek experienced severe trouble with his limb which left the member stiff at the knee joint. Of late bis trouble bas recurred and tbe bone bas become diseased, causing bim much suf fering. His physicians believe his only chance of relief is the amputation of tbe diseased limb between tbe knee and bip, Don't judge a man by bis clothes. God made one and the tailor made tbe other.

Wben a man dies tboy who survive him ask what property there Is left behind; tbe angel who bends over tbe d ring man asks what good deeds be bas sent before bim. Fifty-three years ago this morning, or to be exaot, April 17, 1854, this section woke np to find itself covered with a mantle of snow 20 to 24 Inches in depth. Few people now living have a personal recollection ol tbe strange event, but some there are wno rememoer mai huge timbers were hauled upon that snow. It lasted only about one day and the weather quickly turned thereafter to mildness and pleasant days. So says one who was on tbe spot at that time. A dearth of local news often leads to murmurs on the part ol those who prize local gossin above all else, and it is not all the fault of tbe publisher. Any live publisher will not fail to give all tbe local news worthy of note, therefore when the local department Is short you should not rail at the editor, but remember you might bave committed suicide, got mar ried, quarreled with your neighbor, stole chickens, let your team run away, or done a hundred other things to make a local Hem. A bill now before the legislature to require poisons to be placed in three- cornered bottles Is one which is modelled after laws In a number of states In tbe union and Is a practice which is followed by some manufacturing firms In this country and In France. It bas tbe ad vantage of making such bottles distinct Ive so that persons may be able to recog nize tbe contents by the sense of touch. It will also serve well to teach cbildren to let such bottles severely alone, to say nothing of meeting many other ends. As March 25th was a day of sunshine, according to tbe old proverb, we will bave an immense apple crop. With plenty of apples and apple butter to eat and cider to drink tbe entire winter our bealtb is assured. Being Inclined to accept the sunshiny side of this as well as all other coining eveuts we live In hopes tbe prophecy will materialize, nevertheless, with the ground frozen bard enough to carry a heavily loaded wagon on the first day of tbe trouting season it takes a heap o' faith to keep ns steady on tbe apple crop. A Woman's Christian Temperance Union was organized at Kellettville last Thursday evening, by Miss Jeannette Fuller, one of tbe Ohio state workers. Twenty-one members were enrolled, with a paid-up membership, whicb was most encouraging for the first meeting. Om cers were elected as follows: President, Mrs. Ellen Catlin: vice-president. Mrs. Montgomery; recording and correspond ing secretary, Mrs. Mabel Henderson; treasurer, Mrs. Lilly Dotterer. The ladies are all much Interested in tbe work of tbe Union, and rank with tbelr sister Unions of tbe county In enthusiasm, if not In experience. The Tionesta Band of Meroy, organ ized in Rooms No. 1 and 2 of the public schools by Mrs. L. J. Hopkins, repre senting the Mercy department of tbe W, C. T.

Twenty years ago Irwin citizens put $10,000 Into a 3,000 foot bole and were ready to go deeper wben the drill and attachments were lost In bottom. Three months' fishing failed to recover tbem and tbe well was abandoned. Recently the well broke loose. A column of water and dirt shot up 100 feet, and among the debris was part ol tbe Inst tools. After tbe upheaval the gas pressure was found to be strong, and when lighted tbe flame shoots up 40 feet. The question Is often asked as to whether Harry Thaw can again be tried for murder In tbe rim degree in view of the constitution of the United States, which Bays, "Nor shall any person be subject for tbe same orliense to be twice put in jeopardy of life and limb." This applies only in tbe event of au acquittal. If Harry Thaw bad been acquitted of tbe murder of Stanford White, he could not again be tried; that is, "twice placed In Jeopardy of life add limb for tbe same of fense." As long as tbe jurors continue to disagree District Attorney Jerome may continue to arraign Thaw for first degree minder.' A base ball organization was formed n Marienvllle last week, and with tbe snow yet flying In the air Brother Pick ens of the Express Is claiming tbe cham pionship of Forest, as well as several ad- oinlng counties for their team. Here's wishing you all manner of success, neigh bor, but these claims sometimes fade into mist at the approach of tbe fierce rays of tbe summer sun. With many of the best of our last year's team expecting to be absent from town', baseball matters In Tionesta do not loom up very bright for the coming season, but we're hoping to be represented on the diamond and to meet our neighbors In friendly rivalry. Tbe eight members of tbe Titusville school hoard were all ousted by Judge Thomas, of Meadvllle, Saturday, on pro ceedings instituted by tbe citizens of tbe city recently. The board had been deadlocked on the election of a president for several weeks and no business could be transacted, hence tbe action .to bave the whole bunch removed. Tbe Judge named a complete new board. This Is tbe second case on record in the state where such proceedings bave been re sorted to by the people of any city or the Judge of any county in Pennsylvania, the other case being at Bellefonte some years ago. It Is evident from this that school boards must do business or vacate. Tbe Pennsvlvania Livestock Brfed- ers' Association announces a list of cash prizes for a corn-growing contest, open to any boy or girl whose age will not exceed eighteen years on December 1st, 1007. Tbe contest plot must .be rectangular In form aud coutain 40 square rods, or one fourth of aa acre. Selection of land, seed, fertilizers and manner of cultivation are left to tbe contestant, but he must report on these and other matters, so tbat bis methods may be useful to others.

An exchange tells of a preacher who went at a newspaper man in this way: "You editors do not tell the truth. If you did you could not live; your news papers would be a failure." The editor replied, "You are right, and tbe minister who will at all times and under any cir cumstances tell the whole truth about his members, alive or dead, will not occupy his pulpit more than one Sunda, and then be will find it necessary to leave town In a hurry. The press and tbe pul pit go band in band with white-wash brushes aud pleasant words, magnilying little virtues into big ones. The pulpit, the pen and tbe grave-stone are the great saint-making triumvirate." Aud tbe minister went away looking very thoughtful while the editor returned to his work and told of the unsurpassing beauty of a bride, who was as homely as a mud fence. Licenses All Granted.

Tbe Derrick of Monday gives this ac count of a visit of Representative Wheeler to Oil City over last Sabbath: Hon. Nelson P. Wheeler, congressman of tbe twenty-eighth k is trie t of Pennsyl vonia, was the especial guest of honor Sunday evening at tbe second platform meeting of the series being conducted by tbe men's brotherhood of the Second Presbyterian cburcb. In bis introduc tion of the speaker, the Rev. S. A. Cor nellus, pastor, paid a glowing tribute to Mr. Wheeler as a careful business man aud thorough Christian; also recalling the remarkable, revival of religion whicb took place in Congressman. Wheeler's borne town of Endeavor several years ago and the prominent part taken in its prop agation by the latter. The theme ot Mr, Wheeler's Instructive address was "Pal estine." The large congregation, mostly men, followed tbe speaker's narratiou ot bis trip through tbe Holy Land, accoin plisbed two years ago, with the closest attention. Many Biblical names became Invested with new meaning, as tbe spots intimately connected with Old Testament story and the Saviour's journeys were in terestiDgly depicted. Tbe strange customs of the Oriental were also well described. In closing his address Mr. Wheeler praised tbe Syrio-American College of Heyrut'very highly, calling it "tbe brightest spot In the East." Excellent musio was furnished by tbe cburcb choir and a male quartette, the latter composed of W. II. Mills, Joseph Adams, D. K. James and E. L. Griffith. The Glorious Trouting- Season. Editor Bowen, of the Blizzard, who often contracts the "fever" so that tbe narrow confines of the editorial sanctum can hold liim no longer, opens tbe trout ing season in this true-to-nature fashion, speaking of the many excursions that will be or bave already been made to the mountain streams: But tbe true sportsman finds much pleasure in these excursions whether be gets any fish or not. He is sure to get an appetite, aud he may possibly get one or two trout of the legal stature. Tbe speckled beauties are all-of-a-sudden in their movements. Wben one decides that the book is a good thing to take he goes after it. He doesn't waste any time. There is a flash like a streak of lightning. Aud then while tbat flash is flashing it's up to the man with the liteline to get busy, Wben a trout is pleased with a bail he wants it quick. A free lunch is better than a bard chase after dinner, and one of tbe cardinal principles with a trout is tbat whatever is worth doing at all Is worth doing quickly. There exists in tbe minds of many both farmers and fishermen tbe Idea that wben a "No Trespass" sign Is displayed on land tbe fisherman is effectually barred from fish ing in a stream which passes through this land. Whether tbe farmer likes it or not, this doesn't happen to be the case. "When I find land 'posted,' " eald a well informed flsberuiau, "I generally make tbe acquaintance of tbe man who owns it. I talk to bim, reason with hitn and some times give him tobies or a present of a little something I carry on my bip, and generally get permission to fish. But If T find that a man simply won't allow me to tish I do the next best thing. I gel dowu into the stream from a bridge over a public highway and then walk down tbe stream which is as much public property as is a road. The tanner nr land owner can't order on- out of the stream. He can keep me off the banks, but tbe river is as much mine as it is his. Home oi them don't know this." Cuts, Burns and Brui-es are quickly healed by Han-Cura Ointment.

Kerr, whose death at bis borne in Tylersburg, Pa., on Wednesday morning last, April 10, i007, was briefly mentioned in tbe Republican, was born in Farmington township, Clarion county, July 28, 1819, bis parents being George and Mary Kerr. Although not in good health for some months past, his last Ill ness was of (brief duration, be having been confined to bis bed a little more than a week, and the immediate cause of death was uncmic poison. With the ex ception of about three years spent in tbe west, Clarion county had been bis borne from childhood. He learned the trade of stonemason, wbich he followed most of his life. A man ol pleasing manner and quiet disposition Mr. Kerr was popular with all who knew bim. He was twice elected a member of the board of county commissioners of bis county, as a Re' publican, and bad held about all the offices of trust in bis township, filling each duty faithfully and elUciently.

About 27 years ago be was uolted In marriage with Miss Martha Youngk, daughter of our former citizen, Peter 'Youngk, of Green township.

Four sisters also survive: Mrs. Henry Downiug, Seattle, Wash.; Miss Agnes Kerr, Petrolia, But ler county; Mrs, Martha Rathfon, Lick- ingville, and Mrs. Robert Wray, North Hope, Butler county. This death has cast a gloom over tbe entire neighbor hood of Mr. Kerr's borne, where be was very highly esteemed by bis fellow citi zens, and doubtless few could be taken who would be as much missed. The funeral services, conducted by Rev. J. F, Scherer, of Endeavor, were held Friday at 10 o'clock, tbe Interment being in tbe cemetery at Tylersburg, in charge of Yokohoma Lodge, No. 852, I. O.
