Warden Alberts, representing State
Fish Commissioner Meohan, paid an of
ficial visit to this vicinity last Wednes
day. His errand was not for the purpose
of gobbling up violators of tbe game or
Hah laws, but to caution some people
against putting sawdust, tannery, oil re
finery, and other refuse into the streams.
Mr. Alberts saya it Is not tbe purpose of
the authorities to hamper or harass the
citizens engaged in business that must
have an outlit (or its refuse matter, but to
impress upon them firmly that such
practices must cease in the future, as a
measure not wholly for the benefit of the
sporting fraternity, but to protect tbe
health of the people as well. He fluds
that many Institutions are preparing for
tbe erection of disposal plants, and be
lieves tbat within a very short time little
or no deleterious matter will be fouud
running into tbe streams of the Common
wealth. Happy day, that.

City, where they played to two packed
houses yes'erday, and the general opin
ion of all who witnessed the show was
tbat it was the finest that has played In
this sectiou in years. Every act Is a
feature, and judgingfrom the applause
from tbe packed tont this afternoon the
show scored a great hit in Corry. The
show carries 300 people and 150 horses,
and judging from the street parade that
was witnessed this morning by hundreds,
it is a cleau show throughout. Tbe per
formauce Includes 50 all-feature acts,
chief of which Is Professor Karl Gerbart's
eight performing stallions recently im
ported from Circus Beach, Germany.
Mr. Robbins has been in tbe show busi
ness 40 years, 10 yeara working for an

RECENT DEATHS.
BOWMAN.
Thomas J, Bowman, almost a lifelong
resident of Forest couuty, died at bis
home at 10:30 o'clock a. m July 20, 1010,
and thus passed outoneof East Hickory's
oldest, most prominent and highly es
teemed citizens. In October, 1008, he
suffered a stroke of apoplexy from tbe
effect of which be did not fully recover,
aud which ultimately resulted in bis tak
ing away,
Mr. Bowman was a son of David and
Ellen (Robertson) Bowman, natives of
Scotland. He was born at Helen Furnace,
Clarion county, Pa., March 27, 1840, but
grew to manhood on bis parent's farm,
near Tyleraburg, Pa., and learned the
trade of carpenter, which be followed un

East Hickory, having a capacity of grind
ing 20 tons of feed and two tons of flour
per day. This mill Is in active operation
at tbe present time. The partnership was
dissolved after a few years, Mr. Bowman
remaining the sole owner. He was treas
urer ol the Hickory Bridge Company for
twenty-eight years, from its organization
to January of the present year, when his
health compelled him to resign bis duties.
As a citizen and business man be oc
cupied a place in the front rank in bis
community, being public spirited aud
thoroughly trustworthy, his advice was
highly valued and eagerly sought by
very many of his friends and neighbors
during a loug life of thrift and usefulness.
In November, 1867, Mr, Bowman was
married to Miss Nancy Green, daughter
of James aud Molly (Brown) Green, who
survives blm. with four children, as fol

eral services were held at his late borne
Friday, at 2 p. m., followed by the inter
ment in the East Hickory cemetery. The
services were conducted by Rev, J. F.

marks on the text as found in the latter
part of tbe thirtieth verse of the 107lh
Psalm: "He briugeth them unto their
desired haven," The active pall bearers
