About tbe only thing that Mr. Hearst
can do with his new party will be to con
vert it into some kind of a peace society.
Mr. Bryan Is telling what will be In
the democratic national platform next
year. If this is not Caesarism what la it?
In democratic history Mr. Bryan is de
fined as a bonanza in 180(1, a fighting
chance in 1900, and a bard necessity for
1908.
Lawykr Delmas has retired from the
Thaw case. He was willing to represent
the defendant in court, but objected to
hiring out as his companion In jail.
Governor Stuart has signed tbe bill
giving trolley roada the right to carry
freight, and thus is another of the plat
form pledges of the Republican party re
deemed. Before the present legislature
adjourns tbey will all have been paid.
It is said that though New Yoik has
voted $.)0,000,000 for good roads, and is
spending some of tbe money, It has not
yet settled the questions of proper con
struction and maintenance. Road im
provement will make no headway with
tbe cart belore the horse.
Tberk is every prospect that the
State service pension bill will pass the
legislature at this session, it having been
favorably reported lroru committee last
week, and carries an appropriation of
5,000,000 wherewith to put the law io
operation and pay tbe "old boys."
In speaking of Arbor day the governor
of Connecticut save: '"The teachers of
our schools are urged to impress upon
their pupils tbe lesson suggested by tbis
proclamation, and to stimulate in them
love of our song birds. Tbe klndneva to
bird and animal is akin to loveof human
kind." This talk is better than some of
the political sort.
Mr. Gladstone predicted that by the
end of the present century tbe United
States would have a population of 600,
000,000 and be more prosperous on ac
count ot tbe increase. If that many peo
ple can govern themselves successfully
the rest will be likely to ask to hitch on,
or follow tbe example. At any rate tbe
matter of population, etc., will have very
little in it to Interest tbe present genera
tion an hundred years hence.
No better rule of conduct has been
laid down in the philosophy of the ages
than this from tbe pen of Abraham Lin
coln: "X am not hound to win; but I am
bound to be true. I am not bound to
succeed; but I am bound to live up to
what light I have. I must stand with
any man who stands right; stand with
him while he is right, and part with him
when he goes wrong," No man who
follows implicity tbis logio of the great
Lincoln will find it necessary to apologize
for bis actions.
Ex-Senator Cameron, who long since
has retired to his farm and private life,
ships great quantities of watercress to tbe
New York market from bis Lancaster
county home, and maintains that it pays
a large revenue. We doubt whether there
is a bushel basket full of tbis most de
licious berb raised in Forest County,
and yet our farmers might find It a source
of considerable revenue were tbey to give
its oultivatihn a little attention. Water
cress grows as readily as horseradish,
with scarcely any more trouble, and its
consumption Is increaslug rapidly as tbe
people learn how delicious it is.
Tuerk is abill before tbe Pennsylvania
Legislature providing for meat inspection
by tbe State. That is all right. But it
requires tbe man who butchers animals
and sells to the public to pay the inspect
ors. That is all wrong. Why? Because
tbe large packing houses all have inspec
tors paid by the Federal Government, and
a town that had but one or two small
slaughter-houses, having to maintain a
State inspeotor at a cost ofanywbere from
$ 1,200 to $2,000 a year, would be taxed out
of existence. That would give the big
concerns a monopoly of tbe business.
Fine scheme for tbe millionaire estab
lishments! A bill with a small snake in
it might slip through the Legislature un
noticed, but hardly one that contains a
python. Punxy Spirit,
Commkntino on the late occurrence in
Oil City, the Bradford Era very truly
says il is not good ioIicy for a man to pay
court to a womau and for years induce
br to believe she is to bcome his wife,
aud then desert ber. That tragedy at Oil
City Wednesday was a most shocking one.
The young woman who did tbe shooting
was crazed with ber disappointment. A
deadly blow had been aimed at her hap
piness; she was crushed by it. Life to
ber meant nothing after she bad received
the information that the man she loved
bad t een lost to ber. She concluded to
die aud to wreak vengeance upon the one
who bad caused her so much mental dis
tress. The unwritten law was not de
pended upon by the girl to save her from
the penalty of her inorderous deed. She
was ber own executioner. The incident
was closed in a manner roost impressive.
The letwon of it all should not be over
looked by tiuko who place a iigbt value
oo woman's lor.
Oil City's Double Tragedy.
Oil City was greatly shocked on
Wednesday last by a double tragedy
which was enae'ed shortly after the noon
hour in the heart ot the city. The vic
tims or the terrible aftair were Tbaddeus
Stevens Ross, night mailing clerk in the
Oil City poetolHce, who was shot three
times and instantly killed by Miss Maha
ls Belle Stroup, a resident of Bradford,
where she had conducted a dressmaking
establishment for some time, and who
sent a bullet through her own heart after
killing Ross, her ioruier sweetheart.
There were no witnesses to the shooting,
which occurred in tbe office of Dr. G. W.
Magee. Ross was dining at the home of
his parents a short distance from the doc
tor's office when the telephone rang. His
father answered the call and a woman's
voice made inquiry for "Tbad." The
young man went to the phone and after
answering picked up his bat aud informed
tbe family he had to go to the doctor's
office for a Tew minutes, but would re
turn shortly. That was the last his par
ents saw him alive. '
Miss Siroup arrived at noon from
Bradford, aud went to tbe office of Dr.
Magee, who baa been tbe family physi
cian and with whom she was well ac
quainted. Finding no one in the oillce,
she called Ross on the telephone and
asked him to come to the ottice aud see
ber.
Wbnt took place there no one will ever
know. It could not be ascertained
from persons who were in the building at
tbe time that any loud talking took place
between tbem or that they bad a quarrel.
When Dr. Magee returned from lunch
and opened the door he found the dead
bodies. That of Ross was in a chair in a
corner of the office. His bead was lying
back on the chair and blood was stream-
log from a bullet wound in his neck
His forehead was burned with powder
where a bullet entered bis brain. Another
ball had pierced his heart.
Miss Stroup'a body was lying a few
feet away, face downward, and it partly
blocked tbe office door. Blood was flow
ing from a wolind in her left side. Ross
bad seated himself in a large chair, and
apparently while talking to tbe girl had
thrust bis bauds Into bis trousers pockets,
Tbe girl wore long black kid gloves,
but before doing tbe shooting she bad
slipped both ber bands from tbem and
tbey bung loose from her bloody wrists.
It is thought she walked over to tbe chair
in which Ross was seated, and ooncealing
the revolver with her dress fired the first
shot at his heart. Apparently be never
moved, for tbe position of bis body was a
natural one when it was found.
Wishing to make sure of her work she
fired two more shots, one lodging in his
neck and tbe otuer in his brain. Standing
over her victim, she then shot herself
through tbe heart. The revolver dropped
from ber hand and was found near ber
body.
Ross, who was of a very respectable
family, was to have been married that
evening to Miss Drusilla Edith Sampsell,
a worthy and respected young lady of
Oil City. His slayer was also a lady
highly respected by her acquaintances,
According to her story Ross was to bave
married her in July, and the first inti
mation she bad of bis intended marriage
with Miss Sampsell came to ber in a let
ter ou tbe day before tbe shooting. That
night she slept not a wink, and evidently
In her misery determined ou the course
she would pursue tbe next morning,
Leaving Bradford she told her friends
she "must see 'Tbad' today," and that
she would "be back that night."
She bad kept company with Ross pre
vlous to her removal from Oil City to
Bradford which occurred about four
years ago and after ber removal fre
quently visited Oil City friends. At such
times Ross was an apparently devoted
attendant upon her.
Tbe bodies of tbe two victims, after be
ing viewed by tbe coroner's Jury, were
taken in charge by relatives and pre'
pared for burial. Wbile the undertaker
and Mrs. Fred. Ehret, who is a sister of
Miss Stroup, were disrobing tbe body
tbey found a photograph of Ross in the
bosom of ber dress. A small envelope
was found in one of ber stockings. It
contained a will, dated April 23, and
letter, addressed to no one and unsigned,
Tbe will is as follows:
"I, Mabala B. Stroup, do this day make
my last win, ana give to my sisters, Mrs.
Fred. Kb ret. Coal Hill, and Mrs. John
Ehret, of Aikeu, and my one brother,
Henry H. Stroup, of Ten-Mile Bottom,
all my share in land and real estate and
personal property (most all in shop is
rum. j.n. fiiirei s.)
(Signed) "Mahala B. Stroup.
"Witness Mrs. Anna Hahiiuook.
"April 23, 1007."
Tbe letter, consisting as it does of sev
eral disconnected sentences, evidently
was written after tbe terrible deed was
premeditated. There are repeated eras
ures:
"Tbis is what Tbad always claimed to
be to me, a true lover. He wrote to me
until tbe last minute, saying I was bis
own sweetueart, ana now to marry an
other and bad planned, the next time I
saw Dim it would not be long until we
could marry and be happy but be had
some debts yet. And that in July be
would gel raise and then all would be
happiness for us. Saying be had quit
going with anyone but me and as Boon
as could was coming to see me. Had
planned twice in January but said it was
on account of P. M. ( postmaster i and
once anomer rierK.
"You can give my body to Johnny
Osenlder (the undertaker; be will take
care of me."
These papers were evidently written in
tbe night prior to her going to Oil City,
with a mind apparently filled with mis
givings and greatly troubled.
Tbaddeus Ross was the son of J. D.
Ross, and was aged about 36 years. He
was a Spanish war veteran, having been
a soldier iu Cuba and tbe Philippines.
L'pou his roturu be was appointed to a
position iu tho postofDce iu Oil City. All
preparations were completed for his
marriage to Miss Sampsell, even to the
furnishing of their new home, and tbe
bride-elect was arranging tbe bride's ta
ble when the shocking news of tbe trage
dy was told her.
Miss Stroup was aged about 35 years,
and was born near Coal Hill, in Cran
berry township, Venango county, where
ber parents, tbe late Mr. and Mrs. Wm,
Hlroup, died, respectively 21 and 11 years
ago. The father was a brother of tbe
late John R. Stroup, of this place, and
tbe dead girl was a cousin of our present
Sheriff, A. W. Stroup, who was in at
tendance at the funeral which took place
on holiday noar Sallna. The attendance
is said U bave been immense, the funeral
cortege extending over a mile aud a half
in length, the deceased having been very
popular in the community in which ahe
had spent her girlhood days.
In speaking editorially of this terrible
occurrence tbe Oil City Blizzard says:
"While all concede that it is most deplor
able, and general sympathy is expressed
for the relatives of the leading actors In
tbe tragedy, particularly the father and
mother of Rosa, who were, of course, un
aware of tbe dual role be was playing,
mauy argue that the slayer was justified
in the course she pursued, aud commend
ber oourago in seeking revenge for the
wrong."

two years," says Mr. Rolland Curry, a
patrolman, of Key West, Fla. "Some
times it settled In my knee and lamed me

I was in severe pain and lame from it my
wife went to the drugstore here and came
back with a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. I was rubbed with il and found

rheumatism away. I have not bad any

A Talk on
Quality
Clothing manufacturers bave
learned how to put quality into their
products so that the clothes will re
tain shape and character aod give
service. Some of them do this while
others avoid the issue on accouDt of
the increased expense and ooutioue to
make clothes as they express it, "To
Sell Commercial!? Ail Wool, aud
Tailored With a Hot Iron."
From your standpoint there is but
one way, unless you are a clothes ex
pert. Trade only at a store where
you can place your entire confidence
without fear of its being abused.
