Ridgway Advocate. Mr. Thompson's
many friends in Forest county, ol which

sufficient inroads on the Democratic col

Some time since we read that the pay
of mall carriers In the cities was Increased
to $1000 a year says the Kane Republican,
Tbis is not any too much but we were
struck with the fact that in tbia there Is
no "square deal" when we compare the
salary of the city fellow with tbat ol the
country carriers. The latter has to keep
up a rig and from one to two horses, lie
is on big expense and bis work is most
strenuous and disagreeable; yet be re
ceives from $700 to $900 only, a year.
Where is the justice In thM Yet, our
rural carriers have themselves largely to
blame; they have no right to accept the
position at such low figures; they ought
not to. But there are some men who will
work for Uncle Sam at one-half of what
they exact from an individual employer.

RECENT DEATHS.
KELLY,
Arthur Wellington Kelly, the subject
of this notice, died at 1:15 Sunday morn
ing, March 29, 1908, at lilts residence in
Chicago, Illinois, after a brief Illness
He was taken ill al his office in that city
on Friday afternoon previous to bis death
His case was not thought to be serious at
first and friends and physicians thought
bis condition hopeful, but tbe symptoms
seemed gradually to Increase so tbat be
became unconscious seven hours before
bis departure. Arthur W. Kelly waa
born at Buck Mills, Forest county, on the
Otb day ol February, 1867, and conse
quently was In tbe 42nd year of bis use
ful life. In youth be attended the publio
schools of Tlonesta, subsequently Tre
moot Seminary at Norrlstown, Pa., un
til the year 1884, thus acquiring a liberal
and good business education. Like
many other young men of an ambitious
turn of mind he went west and io 1885 we
find him at Ida Grove ranch, Iowa, and
after tbat be went to tbe state of Nebraska
and remained some time on a ranch on
tbe Niobrara river in that beautiful val
ley near tbe town of Basset. About tbe
year 1887 be came to Chicago wbere bis
father, A. B. Kelly, and uncles bad en
gaged in tbe brick business on an exten
sive scale. Possessing first-class busi
ness habits, be was a valuable aid to them,
assuming general supervision for the
company, at the same time acquiring a
thorough knowledge of tbe business. In
tbe year 18t'l be was married to Anna
Tynon at Chicago. He leaves to Burvlve
him bis wife and two sons, Archie and
Arthur, and an adopted son William, and
two daughters, Margaret and Anna May,
to mourn tbe loss of a kind father. Be
sides bis Immediate family beissurvlved
by the following relatives who revere bis
memory: A, B. and F. A. Kelly, bis
father and mother, and his brothers,
James U., Edward and Howard, of Tlo
nesta, Benjamin W., of Chioago, aud two
sisters, Mrs. May Bonner, of Chicago, and
Mrs. Elsie Rogers, of Cincinnati, O. His
life it might truly be said was one of sun
shine. Cheerfulness shone in bis face and
beautiful was bis character, at tbe same
time be was gifted with unusual industry,
ability and aptitude for business. There
fore bis death Is a great loss not only to
bis relatives who are numerous, but also
to bis host of friends, all who knew him
were friends and be bad no enemies.
Wholehearted, cheerful and kind the poor
never appealed to him in vain, discreet,
cheerful and genial be seemed to com
bine all the elements of a true American
gentleman. No trust reposed In him was
ever npglected or abused, fur be was tbe
soul of honor, and bis face was an open
book. The writer feels certain that he is
not adequate to the duty of summing up
In suitable words tbe record of his useful
and eventful lite. He first saw the light
in Forest county on tbe beautiful banks
of the hlBlorlo Tionesta; be spent his early
daya within our borders. He delighted to
come back and see the people and greet
tbom with bis cheerful words and smiles.
He never was weaned from tbe fond rec
ollections of Forest's beautiful streams
bubbling down tbe beautiful hillsides and
the pleasant valleys. All these beautiful
scenes, and tbe old familiar faces were
dear to his heart. Full of hope and con
fidence be met the troubles of life with
manly courage, A comfort to bis wife,
children aud friends, for tbe sake of them
be would gladly bave lived longer, but
be bad to submit to tbe Inevitable sum
mons of tbe Angel. In tbe religion of bis
father be lived, and so he i! led, mannered,
loved and respected by all who knew him,
but they have the consolation of knowing
tbat
Beyond the flight of time,
Beyond the vale of death
There surely is some blessed clime,
Where life Is not a breatb.
And faitb beholds tbe dying here,
Translated to tbat happier sphere.
Tbe funeral took place at Chicago on
Tuesday afternoon, where be was buried
at Oak Grove cemetery,
COLEMAN.
Martha Coleman waa born April 28,
1833, in Lancaster county, Pa., and died
at tbe home of her son, Samuel W. Cole
man, in McDonald, Pa., March 30, 1908.
Sue was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs,
David Slrubble. Her mother having
died when she was quite young her father
married again, and about tbe year 1838
moved from bis home in the eastern part
of tbe state and put chased a thousand
acre tract of land between Licklngvllle
and Fryburg, where be resided until his
death. In her early life Mrs. Coleman
was accustomed to tbe toll and hardship
which were inseparable from the life of
the pioneer. On Sept, 2, 1852, she was
united in marriage to Herman Coleman,
with whom she lived most happily until
they were separated by his death a few
months before tbe fiftieth anniversary of
their marriage. To them were born
seven children, six sons and one daugh
ter, tbe latter dying in her Infancy, one
ron William died in West Virginia In
1901. There remains to mourn tbe death
of their mother, David F., of Bowling
Green, Ohio; Henry, of Belmont, Pa.;
Jacob E., of Oakdale; Samuel W., of Mc
Donald, and Frank, who is now on his
way borne from tbe oil fields of Roumania
io Europe. In early life Mrs, Coleman
united with the Lutheran church in Fry
burg and contluued a steadfast and de
voted christian until the Heavenly
Father transferred her membership from
tbe church militant to tbe church trium
phant, which Is without fault before tbo
throne of God. Seveuteon years ago with
ber husband she came to Tlonesta and
purchased the borne wbere she has since
resided. Her kind motherly spirit soon
gained for her a multitude of friends and
among ber neigbbora she was regarded
with genuine affection. She bad culti
vated tbe graces of unselfishness aud self
sacrifice to such an extent tbat to do a
kindness for others waa for ber a real
pleasure. In ber home life she waa an
Ideal mother. Sha loyed ber children
with all the fervor of her being, their sor
rows were ber sorrows and in their suc
cess she rejoiced If possible even more
than they. To them tbe memory of her
lile is more precious than gold, During
tbe winter she was seriously 111, but
about five weens ago she recovered suffi
ciently to go to Mo Donald to the borne of
ber son, and it was hoped tbat she would
regain ber usual health, but contracting a
slight cold, bronchial pneumonia devel
oped, and after a few days of suffering
she fell asleep. Brief funeral services
were conducted at the borne In McDon
ald, by Rev, Bell, of tbe Presbyterian
cburcb, Monday evening, and tbe body
was brought to ber old borne lu Tlonesta
on tbe afternoon train from Oil City on

o'clock tbia Wednesday morning, after
which tbe body waa laid to rest in Riv

Victory, but could not withstand tbe con
tinued illness.
In bis younger days he was a sailor,
shipping upon tbe whaling vessels when
that Industry was one of tbe principal
onea of the New England seaports. It
meant yeara of absence, many of them
spent In the Arctic circle, and was a life
fraught With both excitement and adven
ture. He came to Tldloute In 1804 and
Las resided in this immediate vicinity
ever since; and engaged in tbe oil busi
ness up until a few years ago advancing
years made It necessary for him to take
up lighter work. For years he was In
charge of tbe bridge at tbis place. When
It became tbe property of the County and
thrown open for free traffic, he accepted
charge of tbe bridge and toll BBte at West
Hickory. Here death found blm after a
busy, active life; bis strength and energy
was remarkable tu one of his years. His
interests were always with tbe work in
band, or at hia home.

being brought here on tbe afternoon
tralu, and with short services al the
