A disease among horses that is new
to this part of the country has recently
appeared In several counties of western
Pennsylvania, and is engaging tbe atten
tion of veterinarians and members of the
state live Btock sanitary board. The latter
give to the disease the name of "epizootic
lymphangitis," thongh some call it
African farcy. It Is a dangerous disease,
and like glanders, is highly contagious
and la usually fatal. It resembles farcy
in its visible manifestations, is usually
characterized by nodules about tbe size of
a marble, following tbe course of tbe
lymphatics, Inside the bind leg, and In
some cases extending to tbe crural mus
cles on the outer aspect of the thigh.
These nodules frequently suppurate, dis
charging light colored pus. In some
cases, llattish ulcers form about tbe size of
a dime; and In some cases tbe front limbs
are implicated.
The Forest Barge Co. encountered a
good deal of bad luck in tbe running of
their barges last week. Some distance
below Franklin, where considerable
blasting has been going on during tbe
summer in the coustructlon of a new
railroad, a large boulder bad been blown
into tbe channel, and on this rock two
barges were badly damaged, one of tbe
big craft being almost ruined, and anoth-
so badly stove In at the bottom that it
sank in about five feet of water. It will
require considerable time and expense to
raise and float this barge, and this, with
the damage to others, will run up the ex
pense account to pretty noarly the price
of one of tbe barges which is in the neigh
borhood of fl, 700. Wind interferes ma
terially in the running of these big boats
during the daytime, so that much of the
running has to be done after night when
the weather is calm.

At last the new state road above
Tubbs run Is completed, and it is expect
ed the job will formally be accepted by
the Stale authorities this week and taken
off the contractor's hands. He will how
ever, be required to keep tbe ditches
cleaned out and the bed In proper order
until next May. The Job has been a te
dious one, freighted as it was with many
discouraging elements, bad weather, be
lated transportation, etc., but Mr. Bigley,
the contractor, has stuck to It assiduously,
and the result is a very fine piece of
Macadam road, which will last for ages If
given proper attention by tbe township
road supervisors at the right time. But
If neglected it will not last three years.
This does not mean that a great amount
of money or time must be expended In
keeping up tbe road, but it does mean
that the ditches must be kept cleaned out,
and no water allowed to stand In them,
and this will be a comparatively easy and
inexpensive job if promptly attended to.

Tionesta has a strictly first class bak
eryone that Is not surpassed In the ex
cellency of Its output in any city In the
state. Mr. Myers, a thoroughly accom
plished artist in his line, gives bis per
sonal aupervislon to the work, and we
believe all wbo have "tasted bis wares"
will acknowledge their superiority over
any goods that are shipped into town.
He has established a fairly good trade by
giving customers tbe very finest that can
be bad in the lino of bread stuffs, but his
facilities are such that be could turn out
many times as much work as he now has
customers for, and that would afford bim
a living profit. Tbe margin of profit on a
barrel of flour at present prices of that
commodity Is very small, but if be bad
the exclusive trade of tbe town and sur
roundings it would aflord him a nice and
fair Income. Mr. Myers came to our
town hoping there would be sufficient
business to keep bim here. He would
like to stay here with bis family, bnt that
will be out of the question if our citizens
persist In patronizing outside institutions
in his line. He attends closely to his
business, being up late at nigbt and
early in the morning, and Is doing his
share towards giving tbe people a Btric.tly
first class article of fresh bread, and pas
try of all kinds. It Is up to them to say
whether they want to drive him out of
town, or to keep bim here by extending
their patronage on a "live and let live"
basis. We do not believe be is asking
too much. Give a good citizen a fair
chance,

then go on to New York, where they

The bride baa been a lifelong resident
of Tionesta, where she has been con
spicuous in Bocial circles and church
work. She is an accomplished young
lady, of pleasing disposition, well known
and highly respected and leaves behind
ber a host or friends. The groom is a
young man of sterling worth, highly re
spected by all wbo know him, and holds
a responsible position with New York

WALFORD.
Angelina Woods, tbe beloved wife of
W. W. Walford, of this borough, died at
ber borne on Oct. t)tb, 11107, at tbe age of
56 years, 2 months and 11 days. Just one
year to a day prior to her death a physi
cian was first called to presoribe for ber,
and during that year, while able at times
to attend ber household duties, she suf
fered much pain and distress, ber disease
being ol a dropsical nature.
Mrs. Walford wss born In Wayne
county, Pa., July 29, 1831, and in 1872, at
Honesdale, Pa., she was united in mar
riage with Mr. Walford, who, with six
children survives, as follows: Wesley
W.; Adda, wife of Daniel Salsgiver, of
Tionesta; Nettie, wife of Michael Strain,
of Trunkeyville; Alice, wife of Frank
Robinson, of Jamestown, N, Y.j Rachel,
wife of Bert Wiles, of Tionesta, and Ber
tha, wife of Fond Wiles, of Tidioute.
Twenty-one graudcbildren also survive
her. The family moved to this section
about thirty years ago, and has resided
in this community ever since.
This death comes as a severe blow to
the children, but especially so to the
stricken husband, who suffers most in
the loss of a companion wbo seemed al
ways by bis side. Tbeir congeniality,
happiness and contentment soemed per
fect, and to him the sympathy of our
citizens goes out with feelings of pro
found sorrow.
The funeral was held from the late
home of the deceased on Friday after
noon, and was largely attended by rela
tives and friends. Rev. H. A. Bailey
conducted the services, and the remains
were laid to rest In Riverside cemetery.

large crowd had gathered at the doors
and, to avoid crowding, thnv were opened
and adults admitted. The store was
elaborately decorated with palms, laurels
and evergreens and American Hairs,
which, with the enormous display of ele
gantly constructed merchandise, made a
beautiful picture. Mr. Nat Brenner, of
Chicago, u professional vocalist, sang
several popular songs, which were well
received. The management has engaged

wood as accompanist, will give a con

dealer has been purchasing old boilers
and other old iron for Junk during the
