The opening day of the troutlng sea

Inauspicious, with a 60-milo gale blowing
steadily, and what It did to tho angling

was the almost universal report of the'
returning straggler.

Twenty-live double cans ol brook
trout were received here last Wednesday
by the Forest county fish and game pro

to fifty thousand of the little speckled
fellows, and they were In the finest possi
bla condition. The sportsmen hereabout
have made this a practice for years past,
having each year Increased the distribu
tion, and in a short time w ill add another
large consignment, so that, if a decent
regard for the law wete observed by nsb
erman the time would soon come when
the pretty mountain streams of this sec
tiou would once more afford the greatest
sport to the lover of angling for trout.

Charles Creed, many years ago a well
known and highly esteemed resident of
this section, died at his home at Dun
combe, Iowa, Sunday, April 2, 1011, aged
82 years. He was born In Lincolnshire,
Eng., Feb, 25. 1820, and when 18 years of
age came to America. For a number of
years he was engaged in lumbering oper
ations near Lickingvllle, Clarion county,
nd It was there, In 1869, that he was
united in marriage with Mrs. Rachel
(Everbart) Hays, who, with four sons
and one step-daughter, survives. The
family removed to Iowa In 1881, which
state has since been tbelr home. Mr.
Creed will be remembered by most of tbe
older residents of tbe community In
which many years of his life were spent,
and In which be was honored and re
spected In a high degree for his upright
ness, sterling honesty and kindly, sym
pathetic uature as neighbor aud friend.
Hezakiah Culp, of Plnegrove town
ship, Venango county, bas a homo made
sword cane which be bas good reason to
believe was made more than 100 years
ago by bis father. Mr. Culp la past 74
years and his father told bim that it bad
been made a great many years before tbe
birth of Hezakiah. Tbe cane proper is
maoe of curly maple fully an inch in
diameter and octagon in shape laid off in
feet, Inches and half Inches. The furrule
Is hand forged as is also tbe sword which
is a four-cornered piece of finely tem
pered steel about a foot In length and
taperiug down to almost a needle point.
The top is a round knob which serves as
a handle while the cane serves as a scab
bard. Tbe idea of this old-fashioned
weapon is that In case the cane, used as a
club against a higbwaymau or other
assallaut, should be wrested from tbe
owner's band be would still bave the
dagger In his hand and It looks capable of
killing almost anything living less In
size than a full-grown elephant.

More Railroad Rumors.
An important meeting was beld in this
place last Thursday which may result in
an extension of the P. R. R. switch from
the Oil City water works over to Venus
and Fry burg. Tbe conference was be
tween the general freight agent of the P.
R. R., superintendent James Buckalew,
of Oil City, and owners of timberlands In
Venango, Forest and Clarion counties.
Tbe latter included Messrs. Squires, For
bush, Gilberd, A. Keverline and D. B.
Toby. Tbe feasibility of a railroad con
nection from the P. R, R. to the Clapp
tract recently purchased by Forbusb et
al., of Jamestown, and tbe Keverline
lands and Kahle tracts adjoining waa dis
cussed. One proposition was a bridge at
Tionesta and tbe use of the Collins lum
ber road to Nebraska with a short Hue to
the Clapp tract. Also an Independent
road from the pump house switch at Oil
City up the river via Horse creek, 18
miles. It was represented to Superin
tendent Buckalew that there was a vast
amount of standing timber throughout
tbe section tbe independent road would
traverse; that it was good farmlngcountry
and that the people of Fryburg and Line
yille, both important resident settlements
would probably subscribe liberally to
wards tbe construction of a road to or
through those places. Mr, Buckalew
agreed to forward the aocountof the con
ference to tbe bead offices in Philadelphia.
The gentlemen who were In conference
with the P. R. R. representatives Thurs
day are the same who made similar rep
resentations to Superintendent Murray of
the Lake Shore for an extension from the
F. & C. into this section a week or 10 days
ago. All are men of enorgy and especial
ly those who recently purchased the tim
ber of the vast traot of the E. E. Clapp
estate are determined to get a railroad
outlet from tbe property.
Girls' Basket Hall (.ante a Tic.
The basket ball game at the gymna
sium last Thursday evoning, between
the girls' team of the Sheffiold high
school and the Tionesta girls, ended in a
tie score of 10 to 10, after two lively fif
teen minute halves. The visitors had a
little tbe advantage of the local team In
weight, age and experience, having been
playing for some time, and therefore the
latter are to be congratulated on holding
the score down so well. It was the home
team's first match game. Both teams
played a snappy game and Miss Grove
saved the gamt for her team by making
a fine field goal in the last hair minute of
play. When the boll rang with the score
a tie, Sheffield did not want to continue
and Tionesta did not insist. The rules
require the game to continue until one or
the other soores two points. The score at
tbe end of the first half was 5 to 4 in
Tlonesta's favor. This game had been
scheduled for Friday night but at the re
quest of Sheffield was brought forward a
day. Tbe crowd was the largest of the
season and the girls have a nice surplus
in their treasury. The lineup:

Whose Seeds Do We Sell !
This Is a leading question, but It is so
often asked that we are glad that all
should know: After years ol experl
inmiting we have made selections that
include only the most desirable varieties
of Uardttn Seeds grown. No one sued
house supplies all of these varieties,
hence we gather our collection from the
different growers who are able to furnish
us just what we want, of seeds that will
grow. A number of varieties are irrown
in this neighborhood by people who have
grown seed for us tor years, linx seed
includes everything the seed grower
choose to send out. Our seeds are only
the choicest varieties. II. C. Mafes.

and how we sell them.
We could very easily buy a largo mass of cheap clothing, put low prices
on it and make a very handsome profit.
Hut there is more in life lliau mere money. There is standing, there is
self-respect, there is reputation. And without them what good is money?
Our operations we prefer to limit to Btaudard merchandise and less
profit, gaining the reputation that all clean merchants strive to attain.
Maybe we will never become millionaires by giving the best values, but
a million has never been necessary to our happiness in the past.
