John Dice, residing a mile beyond
Starr pnstotlice, on the road to Kellett
viile, was severely injured Isst Thursday
morning as be was about to begin the
marking out of a cornfield. His horse, a
young animal and quite high-lived, was
bitched to tbe marker and in passing
through the bars a board was caught
frightening the horse, and as he sprang
forward, Mr, Dice was thrown lu front of
the machine and thence against a barb-
wire fence where bis bead which also
came in contact with a post, was badly
lacerated and bruised, rendering him un
conscious, in which condition he re
mained for nearly 24 hours. Ue was re
moved to his house by his neighbor,
Benjamin Weller, and Dr. Detar of Kel
lettviile was summoned and rondered the
necessary surgical aid. At last accounts
the patient was doing well and able to
leave his bed, feeling no doubt that after
all be escaped luckily.
Tbe county executive committee of
the W. C. T. U. met at tbe borne of Mrs,
G. F. Watson, Tionesta, Wednesday,
May 17, at 11 o'clock a. m. Quite a large
number of ofllcers and superintendents
was present. County President, Mrs. S.
M. Sharpe ocoupled the chair. Arrange
ments were mado to hold tbe county con
vention about Sept, 13, at Endeavor, and
to secure If possible Miss Marie C.Brehm
for the convention speaker. Miss Brehm
is a noted temperance lecturer of tbe
Presbyterian church, and la a speaker of
marked ability. Other matters of Im
portance were attended to, after which
the meeting was adjourned.
Tbe persistent use of tbe split-log
drag for Improving dirt loads by J. II.
Alcorn, of Cherry tree township, la com
mencing to bear fruit. He baa used tbe
drag oa a piece of road west of Gresham
for the last two or three years in a proper
manner and st tbe right time. His
claims for tbe drag are that it will give
the people tbe use of a good road from tbe
time the frost goes out in the spring of
the year until the fall rains set in. That
will be one hundred per cent better tban
under the present system and at half tbe
cost of maintenance, and that the farmers
can work out their road tax a little at a
time as the road needs it, wben the sell
on their farms Is too wet to plow, plant or
cultivate. Franklin Spectator.
-The state la ws regulating tbe care and
protection of foodstuffs offered for sale by
grocers and butchers are very sensibly
drawn and the pure food department
officials are to be commended in their
determination to jolu bands witb the
health department In euforcing lis pro
visions. Articles intended for human
consumption ought never to be exposed
to dust, much loss to tbe contamination
of flies, dogs and cats. As a rule our
merchants have been very careful In
these respects aud tbe ofllcers whose duty
it ia to enforce tbe laws have seldom
found it necessary to punisb anyone for
violating tbem. But vigilance should
never be relaxed. Flies aie now well
known to be notorious disseminators of
disease germs, and they should be barred
from everything Intended for food.
Merchants who are lax in keeping tbem
off their goods ought not to be patronized
by the public Tltusville Courier.

MORRIS,
Mrs. S. B. Morris, at Baum station,
near rreameni, was suockea to receive a
telegram last Wednesday convoying tbe
sad intelligence of the death of her
daughter. Miss Vivian Morris, on the
previous day. Four or live years ago tbe
young lady accepted a position as stenog
rapher witb an extensive lumbering firm
at Missoula, Montana, and it was while
thus engaged that she was seized with an
attack of appendicitis. She was operated
upoo at a hospital near her borne, but
without success, as death followed soon
after. When she found that an operation
was Imparative she summoned her very
dear friend, Mrs. Wright, of Butte, Mont ,
who is better remembered ber as Miss
Leota Wann, a former school teacher in
Forest county, but before her arrival the
end had come, and Mrs. Wright Imme
diately made preparations to accompany
the body to ber faraway borne iu Penn
sylvania, which was reached on Monday
morning of this week, and the funeral
followed immediately upon the arrival of
the train at Presideut.
Miss Morris, who was aged about 27
years, was a young lady of exceptional
brilliancy, studious and efficient in her
chosen work. Possessed of a charming
disposition and a loveliness of character
beyond the average person, she readily
endeared herself to all, and her friends
were limited only by the circle of her
acquaintanceship. It was indeed a sor
rowful home-coming to her family,
whose first intimation that all was not
going well witb ber, was the telegram
relorred to, aud the seriousness of the
shock can only be Imagined, and tbeir
great grief Is assuaged only by the
knowledge that the sympathy of their
I'ritiuds is with tbem in this peculiarly
sad bereavement. Besides the mother
the dot-eased is survived by one brother
aud three sisters, namely, Ralph li,
Morns, Misses Maude, Grace aud Zella,
