The gas stove with worn-out rubber connection Is getting a victim here and there, suggests an exchange.

The report ol the Oil City Trust Com pany to the Commissioner of Banking, uuder date of Dec. lt'tb, which was inad vertently omitted last week, is published elsewhere in this issue, and gives a very lavorable impression of the strength of that institution. The report shows cash on band and in banks of over foOO, 0(10 00; quick assets of f 1,05,000.00, and total resources of $2,087 ,000.00.

This is a new record in promptness of remits in the handling of pension claims, and easily makes our Congressman the champion in that line, aal that, too, in the face of the lact that he has sat less than a month as a member of that distinguished body. The new year brought but one change in the official faamily at the court house. that of the County Treasurer, the new official being Georgo W. Holemau, to whom William II. Harrison, the retiring treasurer, delivered the combination to the couuty's strong box on Mondav. Mr. Harrison has been a careful aud obliging official during Ins three years' incumben cy of the office, and leaves it with many good wishes. Mr. Holeman is the same sort of careful aud obligiug gentleman, and at the end of bis term will retire with more friends than when he entered upon bis duties. Good luck aud prosperity to both. The uame of William E. Rice, Esq., of Warren, appears in the Republican today as a candidate for President Judge of this, the 37th, Judicial District. For some time past the caudidacy of Mr. Rice baB been urged by bis many friends both in this and Warren counties, and in per mitting bis name to go before the people be has satisfied a large circle of admirers in the district. It is said on good author ity Ibat be will have no opponent iu War ren, and it is known he will not have iu Forest county, for the nomination, aud it is panhable be will have little or noue at the fall tleetion. The ability of Mr. Rice is recognized by all, and it is doubtlul whether as good judicial timber cau be found in the district. Let everyone guilty of the pernicious habit of saying "Who is this?" when they call up a certain number over the tele phone make a solemn resolution this first day of the new year to turn over a new leaf. There is nothing in the world any more jarring than to have this imperti nent question tired at one who in answer to the telophoue ring lakes dowu the re ceiver and does his part iu giving t lie customary salutation. It's about time that the great majority of people addict ed to this bit of Impoliteness wake upand understand that it Is none of their bus iness as to "who it is." Ask promptly for the one wanted at the 'phone, and never mind putting the nervy query as to who holds the receiver at the other end of tho Hue. Warrou Times. Here is a mighty good creed: I be lieve in the firm I am working for, and in my ability to get results. I believe that honest stuff can be passed out to honest men by honest methods. I be lieve in working, not weeping; in boost ing, not knocking, and In the pleasure of my job. I believe that a man gets what he goes after, that oue deed done today is worth two deeds done tomorrow, and that no man Is down and nut until be has lost faith Iu himself. I believe In today and the work I am doing, in tomorrow and the work I hope to do, and in tbe sure reward which the future holds. I believe in courtesy, in kindness, In generosity, in good cheer, in friendship, and honest competition. I believe there Is some thing doing some where for every una ready to do it. I believe I'm ready right now, - James Bingman, who resides with bis family at West Hickory, and was employed at cutting logs for tbe mill on tbe Carter farm, was tbe victim of a bad accident on Tuesday of last week, ,wbeu hj left leg was broken about midway be tween the ankleand knee.

Much Interest Is centered in an nil well which it was thought would be fin ished last week near Porkey, thiBcouuty, ou the 8. A T. railroad. The Warren Mirror says that several days ago the shell was tapped leading to the sand ami tbe pressure of gas was so strong that further operations were abandoned. The indications are that the well will be a good producer ol oil. Those who put down tbe well are George Geracimos, Haw ley Wbeeler, Daulel Ofl'erle, Tim and Dan Foley, and tbe Cr itch low broth ers. A live acre lease was secured from Fred Morck, of Warren, who retains the undivided one-half in the COO acre lot. During the Cherry Grove excitement a small well was struck in the vicinity of tbe present operations, but It wns not considered at that time large enough to give attention to.

It is tbe easiest thing in Ihe world for a man to become so absoibed In business as to neglect bis duty to God. A revival calls a bait in bis living and turns bim back to the life wbich be promised in otber days to live. There may be a new evangelism today wbich is different from tbat In olden days, and by new evangel ism we mean new methods may be used, but it must be distinctly understood tbat no new truth is preached. Tbe old story of a crucified Savior for a lost and ruined race will never lose its power. There is evidently a world-wide revival on today, tbe hour has struck and tbe world is moving witb mighty rapidi'y along evangelistic lines. England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, America, and many foreign lands have witnessed and are witnessing sweeping revivals of the old-fashioned sort. "Revivalism may be defined, to iny notion, as Christianity in earnest," so wrote V. T. Stead, the great English editor. In America we call it evangelis tio work, and tbe purpose ol such elfort is to arouse men from apathy and indiffer ence and to compel theui to face squarely the thought of time and eternity, tbat tbey may be ready for both. The teach ings of Jesus, the principles of science and the common sense of men all meet in approval of a real revival of religion, wbich means bad men made good, ciuel men more merciful, lazy men indus trious, tbe drunkard made sober, and tbe selfish man become unselfish. This is the work we are seeing done today where tbe work is unhindered and where sym pathy is bestowed upon the lain rer. God is certainly moving in these days. Woe be to tbat man who attempts to stop the chariot or touch tbe arte. But you 'do not believe in revivals? You do in business, why not in religion? You do not believe in excitement? You do in politics, why Dot bring some of that energy into your religion? You do not believe in slirrii g the emotions? Why uot be honest? You like the theater where the emotions are played upon like a barn in a minstrel's hand. You believe in culture rather than in revivals? Re member you don't cultivate a dead tree A true revival means a better towu, bet ter homes, better lives, better newspa pers, better books, better everything. This article is written iu order that your attention may be directed toward tbe evaugelistio effort tbat is now being put forth by tbe christian people of Tin nesta. In both tbe Methodist and l'res bytorian churches meetings are being held nightly, conducted by their re spective pastors, and it is earnestly hoped tbe meetings will be largely attended, and tbat business duties and social func tions may give way, so far as possible, so that all, both young and old, may attend tbe meetings.
