For several years it bas been tho
pleasure of the members of the Woman's
Christian Teinporance Union to give a
dinner at the County Home, for the ben

was not forgotten this year, as on the
beautiful morning of Wednesday, Octo
ber 2d, a large number of the "White
Rihboners" with baskets flllod to over
flowing were driven to tho home, where
they were most cordially received by the
superintendent and his wife, Mr, and
Mrs. F. Wenk, who turned over to them
the free use of the dining room and culi
nary department, as well as giving them
the "freedom of the home." It was not
lone until a bountiful repast was spread
and the Inmates were seated around the
tables partaking of it. The words of
pleasure and thanks expressed by the
inmates more than repaid the "White
Rlbboners" lor the treat they had provid
ed. And if during the year it is remem
bered by them as a bright day in their
lives, It will also be remembered as a
rmppy occasion by the member of the

Boy Wanted.
Under tbe bead "Boy Wanted" the
South Dakota Spirit publishes the fol
lowing clipping, which every parent of a
son would do well to lay before his boy
and ask him to read It for the good advice
it contains: Boy Wanted. One of any
ago or breed to fill an important position.
Must have a clean face, clean habits aud a
clean heart; need not know how to roll a
cigarette nor how beer tastes, and If he is
not up-to-date in all smutty Jokes of the
pool room his ignorance will be over
looked. He must be a boy who gt-ts up
cheerful In the morning, one who can
lay down his books occasionally to do an
errand, who treats bis mother and sister
and every boy's mother and sister with
respect; and does not refer to his father
as the "old man." He must be truthful,
prompt, obedient and industrious. He
must make bis employer's interest his
interest, and never be afraid that he. is
earning more than bis wages. He is
wanted to respond at once in any number.
Merchants want him to sweep out the
store for a few years, ultimately to take
charge of it. Newspapers want hi in to
commence with the crowd at the bottom
and work to the roomy places at the top.
He la wanted everywhere in medicine
practice, In the counting room, to run
great public works. The people who pay
big salaries are looking lor him. The
people want blra for judge in court, for
member of Congress, Senator and Presi
dent, and tbe nicest girl in the world
wants htm lor nnr nusuauu.

Colling T8. Clougli Ejectment Suit.
The jury in the ejectment suit which at
tracted so much interest, and which lasted
a full week In Its trial, reached a verdict
at 0 o'clock on Thursday morning, after
being out all night, in favor of the defend
ants, L. S. Cluugb and others. This Is
the most important action in ejectment
ever beard in Forest county, and perhaps
in Western Pennsylvania for many years.
The case Involves tbe title of about five
hundred ajres of valuable timber land in
Kiogsley aud Ho e townships, and arises
from an interference of the original sur
veys made in the year 1794, between
what are known as the Mead warrants
and what are known as the Mllllln war
ronts. Tbe question in this case binges
on tbe priority of tbe Mead surveys, and
the location of the origiual Mead line,
running northeast and southwest. The
plaintiffs, known as tbe Watson Lands
Lumber Company, consisting of T, D.
Collins, F. X.Kreltler, F. K. Brown and
W. W. Dickey, of this county, are tbe
owners of warrant S2GG, of the Mead sur
veys, and the defendant, L. 8. Clougb, of
Warren, is the owner .of Mead warrant
5282, and Mlfllin warrants 5101 aud 5101
All of these tracts were laid upon the
ground in the year 1794, when all of this
part of tbe country was a vast wilderness,
and it is contended a part of the Mifflin
surveys overlap tbe lines of the Mead
surveys. The testimony was very com
plicated and a large force of lawyers and
surveyors have been working on the case
for over two years past. His honor,
Judge Frank J. Thomas, of Crawford
county court, presided at tbe trial of the
case, and bis rulings were considered
very fair and impartial to all concerned,
The plaintiffs were ably represented bf
Thomas H. Murray, Esq., of Clearfield
Pa., one of tbe leading land lawyers of tbe
stale of Pennsylvania; A. L. Cole, of Du
Bols, Pa.; C. Z. Gordon, of Brookvllle,
Pa., and Ritchey A Carringer, of Tionesta,
Pa. The defense was conducted by D. I
Ball, W. D. Hickley and W. E. Rice, of
Warren, and A. C. Brown, of Tionesta,
Owing to tbe advance in tbe price of tim
ber thero is said to be from one hundred
thousand to one hundred and fifty thous
and dollars involved iu this case. Upon
the rendering of the verdict of the jury
the plaintiffs immediately made a motion
for a new trial, which motion will be
beard by Judge Thomas some time with
in tbe next two months. Tbe Jury was
made up as follows: A. J. Carnaban, of
Harmony twp.; J. T, Carson, of Tionesta;
Amos Eldridue, ot Jenks twp,; Pbilo
Williams, of Barnett twp.; Wm, Hind
man, of Kingsley twp.; A. R. Slaughen

Once More the (Jnme Season.
So many muddled accounts of tbe open

single hunter may take. Tbe list may be
depended upon as correct; In other words,
when you see It In tbe Republican it's

Many sportsmen think spring shoot
ing should be entirely abolished In all
states, and a concerted effort will be
made at the noxt session of congress to
have passed a bill, drawn by George
Shiras III, of Pittsburg, to place all mi
gratory wild fowl under federal control
and to slop spring slaughter, while birds
are on their way to breeding grounds.
This would be a wise and just thing to do.
