Beware of Fourth of July Injuries, all
of which are more or less serious, and
many prove fatal. The American Medi
cal Society has been busy In the compila
tion of figures which show a startling
state of alfaira as resultants of the careless
and reckless handling of firearms and ex
plosives on Independence day celebra
tions, and the society bas passed strong
resolutions condemning the practice of
methods which are so reckless of human
life and health. Here are some of the
statistics; In the United States there oc
curred in the last live years 23,07:1 Injur
ies, and ol this number 1,153 resulted fa
tally. Of these Injuries 3458 occurred in
Pennsylvania, tbe fatalities reaching 172.
Tbe statistics of 1903 are 6023 for the
United States with 103 fatalities; for Penn
sylvania, 987, with 21 fatalities.
Last Friday uigbt was tbe fiftieth an
niversary of the big frost, June 4th, 1859,
according to the best evidence obtainable.
Many people are still living who have a
distiuct recollection o that wonderfully
devastating circumstance, and can recall
the appearance of all sorts of vegetation
on the day following, June 5th. We are
told that one week from that date not a
green leaf was to be seen anywhere in all
Ibis section, and that every vestige of
cereal or vegetable was frozen to the
ground, and starvation stared tbe people
in the face. Much buckwheat was sown
and corn re-planted, and the farmers
reaped an abundant harvest of both in
the fall. Flour, which shot upward in
price immediately after tbe frost, came
down again as quickly, and sold for less
than before tbe freeze, owing to the large
shipments that came from the western
states.
Important Timber Deal.
A timber deal of considerable magni
tude was closed recently by Dr. J. C.
Dunn aud J. J. Landers, of Tionesta,
when tbey purchased from Mrs. Betsy
Adamson, of Philadelphia, all tbe re
maining timber on ibe landBof tbe late
Joseph Adamson In Klngsley, Howe and
Jenks townships, this county, which was
formerly known as tho Salmon Creek
Lumber and Mining Company property,
Tbe purchase includes all the merchanta
ble timber and pulp wood on 8,147 acres,
embraced in warrants 6105, 5108, 6100,
6110, 6128 and 5120. The greater part of
this land bas been cut over, but there Is
yet six or seven million feet of saw tim
ber and from seventy to ninety thnusaud
cords of pulp wend on it. Of the saw
timber two and a half million feet Is hem
lock, and the balance oak, chestnut, pine,
cucumber, poplar, ash, etc. Tbe new
owners have already closed a contract
witb Ibe New York A Pennsylvania
Company of Jobusonburg, Pa., for the
removal of the pulp wood, who expect to
begin operations at once wilb a large
force of men.' Messrs. Dunn and Lan
ders afterwards disposed of an interest in
tbe property to J. F, Proper, of Tionesta,
and tbey are preparing to peel the bark
and manufacture the lumber. Their mill
will probably be located near the old
mill of tbe Salmon Creek Lumber Co.
at Kellettvllle. These operations will
give employment to a great many men
and will add much to tbe business activ
ity of that section for some time to come.
Clean Up.
The citizens'of the Borough are entitled
to commondation for their efforts to keep
their properties and the Borough in a
sanitary condition. It is due to this
cleanliness that we are so free from con
tagious diseases. In order to assist tbe
people in this very important duty we
have recommended and suggested to the
norougb Council that certain "Cleaning-up-Days"
be fixed, not to exceed one
each month, at which time all lot owners
and occupiers of lots be requested to place
all accumulations of refuse, as rotlcn
fruits or decaying vegetable matter, Ac,
In a receptacle of some kind on the side
of the street and that it then be hauled
away by tbe Borough.
The Board of Health has Instructed its
Health Officer, Peter S. Lindel, to make a
general inspection of the Borough to see
that, if any nuisances exist that may be
prejudicial to good health, that same, If
found, may be removed. This Is done
lor the benefit of all and we hope that
every person will assist the Health Officer
in making this inspection by telling him
of any unhealthy place they may know
of, whether It may be in the cellar or on
the lot, as the right of Inspection extends
to all parts of tbe bouse as well as to the
lots. Byorderof Board ok Hkai.th.

FROM ANOTHER CORRKSl'ONDENT.
A timber deal of considerable note wes
consummated recently that for acreage
surpasses the majority of sales. The par
ticulars, which we are unable to give as
authentic, are substantially as follows:
Dr. J. C. Dunn, J. J. Landers aud J. F.
Proper, all of Tionesta, are the owners of
all tbe timber on the Adauisou property,
the deal going through a couple weeks
ago. This tract comprises about 8,000
acres and lies on Salmon creek and its
tributaries. There is considerable local
history attached to this property that
through lack of space we are unable to
giye. Some 25 years ago the start was
made to denude this vast tract of its
monster forest beauties aud we might
say that all these years have seen tbe
forest grow smaller uulil now there is
but a handful), as It were, left. Thesiege
against this timber was carried on by
several companies, a few of which we
might mention here: J. M. Kepler, Tio
nesta Lumber-Co., T. D. Cclllns, and tbe
Salmon Creek Lumber Co. The last
named company operated the tract until
tbe contract expired in 1906. Since then
nothing bas been removed. It is esti
mated there are 100,000 cords of pulp
wood, aside from the saw timber, still
remaining on the lands. Tbe timber for
manufacturing is upward of ten million
feet. The pulp wood will go to Ihe New
Yoik and Pennsylvania Company at
Johnsonburg, while the saw timber has
as yet not been contracted for.
The primary election held In the hall
Saturday was very light, owing to tbe
fact that but very few candidates were up
for nomination. J. G. Watson, our home
candidate for Associate Judge, received a
very flattering vote, 88 to 4. This is in
deed a good way to show one's friend
ship, and although defeated in tbe coun
ty, one bas the assurance that they can
poll a good yote where they are best
known.
Our first twilight ball game of the sea
son was played on tbe home grounds
Saturday between the Marionvllio team
and our home team. The game was
started at 0:30 aud after seven Innings
bad been ground off to the eutire satisfac
tion of the home team, the game was
called on account ol darkness, score 11 to
3, our game. The Marienville boys con
ducted themselves as gentlemen and took
their defeat gracefully, this making their
second loss for one afternoon, the May
bin k boys treating tbem to a similar
drubbing as tbey received at our bands,
A severe local electrical storm visited
this section Friday evening. The storm
broke about nine o'clock and for an hour
tbe rain came down very plentifully. No
damage was reported bere, except an oil
lank at Porkey was struck by lighlning
and destroyed. The tank contained 100
barrels of oil aud belonged to ibe South
Penn Oil Co. .

at East Hickory and Endeavor, Thurs
day. While returning home their bnrce
began showing signs of fatigue, so they
thought. After spending somo time on
the road and as darkness was taut coming
on, a good Samaritan hove in sight, who
also proved to be a pasimaster iu epi
demics, hastily diagnosing the case iu its
true form. They were soon on their way
again, breathing a prayer of thanks.

Vanadium Steel
Mr. E. W. Wilson of Union Saw
dium Steel Saws, in a contest between American and British quality, nave
the following demonstration at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, iu New York
City, Feb. l!ih, last, with one of the ordinary !) tuoth saws made for wood:
1st lie sprung the saw from point to heel twice in both directions,
showing no permanent set.
2d With a hammer he bent the teoth of the saw at right angles to the
blade without fracturing the teeth.
od The filing demonstrated that the steel in tho saw was uo harder
than the ordinary saw.
4th He then took a plank, drove two twenty-pouny nails in the edge
of same and cut the plank through, at the same time cutting oil' tbe nails,
after which he took a two-inch stool pipe and cut it in half.
We confidently assert theso Vanadium Steel Saws will save the mechan
ic enough in a year in filing and setting to pay teu times over the difference
betweon their cost and that of the ordinary hand saw. Come and see the
saws. We have a number of different kind and at prices to suit all. Tools
for the farmer as well as the tradesman. Everything iu Hardware. If you
dou't deal wit i us we both lose money.

rass you as inferior serges are certain to do.
