New legislation affecting tbe sale of
fire crackers and other dangerous ex

acquaint themselves with statutes before
laying in a stock of these goods for tbe

laws count for anything, and It Is hoped
that wbatover is done in this community
toward tbe celebration, it shall be in
decency and in order, as was the case a

Fourth is a thing much to be desired, but
a "wide-open" event will bardly be

The Parsons (W. Va.) Advocate, of
June 8th, contains tbe following item re
gardlnga former well known Tlonesta
citizen. We are glad to know that "Bill"
escaped the greasers and the earthquake:
"Will Huliugs, who bas speut tbe past
four or five years In California and
Mexico, is visiting his brother James on
Walnut street. His son James who baa
been in Canada for some time camn with
him but after spending a few days in tbe
city left the first of tbe week for Pittsburg
where he bas a position. 'Bill' is the
proud possessor of a whole arsenal ol
firearms and bowie knives from the land
of the insurrection and might easily be
taken for a commander of an Insurrecto
ordnance train."
Among tbe bills approved by the

Pat Fitzgerald's horse furnished some
excitement In town Saturday morning.
He had tbe animal bitched to a buggy and
tied back of Hopkins' store, when It be'
came frightened at Geo. Wilson's auto,
broke loose and ran through tbe alley,
down Bridge street and down Elm street,
scattering the top, seat and contents of
tbe buggy as it went. The animal went
through tbe narrow space between R. L,
Haslet's store and T. F. Ritchey's office
but the buggy couldn't pass and was left
there. The horse finally wound up about
where be started and was standing near
tbe auto as lame as a kitten. Tbe excit
ing sequel to the story Is that Pat bad
eight sticks of dynamite and ten fulmi
nating caps in a box in tbe buggy. The
explosive was dumped out at the corner
of Bridge and Elm, but it isn't necessary
to state that none of it went oil'. Tbe
spectators are yet having that oreepy
feeling about their hair every time they
tbiuk of it. When the fracas was over
the buggy was ready for the scrap heap

WARDEN.
"One drop of rain of myriads falling
on moor, or desert, or mountain, one
snow flake of myriads melting into the
Immeasurable sea, Is, and must be, for
most men tbe symbol of their ordinary
lives. They die, and barely have they
died, when they are forgotten. A few
years pass, and tbe creeping lichens eat
away the letters of their names upon the
tombstone; but even if these letters were
still decipherable, tbey would recall no
memory to those who stand upon their
graves."
While these words of a great man may
be true concerning many men, even most
men, we have a very notable exception
In tbe case of the subject of this sketch,
for bis work, bis life, his example are
such that they cannot be forgotten. He
was a most exemplary man; quiet, re
served, unassuming, unostentatious; but
faithful and trustworthy, capable and
efficient, filling many places of trust and
honor within tbe gift of the people to be
stow upon him. General manager and
superintendent of the large interests of
Wheeler A Dusenbury at Endeavor, Pa.,
township treasurer, and connected with
the bridge, the mads and the schools of
Hickory township, charter member and
elder in the Presbyterian church, first
and only superintendent of the Sabbath
school, first president of the C. E. society,
teacher of C. L. S. C, ludeed, identified
with everything Intended for the better
ment of men, bis loss falls heavily upon
the entire community. No wonder a
gloom fell over tbe whole village when
tbe wires flashed out early Monday morn
ing, "Mr. Warden passed away." Though
gone from us, he shall live in tbe thoughts,
and memories, and minds and hearts and
lives of those who knew bim always; for
to know him was to honor aud esteem
and love him.
The following telegram received from
one of bis business associates now living
In Portland, Oregon, is a proof of the es
timation in which he was held by those
who knew him best:
"Mrs. G. W. Warden:
"Accept my love, honor and apprecia
tion of one of tbe best friends and noblest
men I ever knew. We sympathize most
deeply."
He came to Endeavor in tbe spring of
1877, when quite a young man, and it
seems as if be bad grown up with and
become a vital part of all the affairs about
lil in, both secular and religious. His loss
is ii reparable; tbe vacancy can not be
filled.
George W. Warden was born in Port
ville, N. Y., Deo. 27, 1854; married to
Miss Sue Kvans, daughter of the late Mr,
and Mrs. Henry H. Evans, of Tidioute,
Pa., Aug. 17, 1882, who eurvives him,
together with three sons, George II.,
Gus E., Alton T.,and one daughter, Mary
Alice. His end came peacefully on June
12, 1011, after bis last and only illness
covering a period of several weeks.
Simple but most impressive services in
memory ol the deceased were held at bis
late borne at Endeavor Tuesday afternoon
at 2 o'clock. These were conducted by
his pastor, Rev, J. F. Scherer, who was
assisted by Rev. S. F. Marks, pastor of
Tidioute Presbyterian church and an old
Irlend of the family. Both ministers
spoke most eloquently of tbe beautiful
life of Mr. Warden, and among tbe great
company of friends that bad gathered to
pay their last tribute of love and esteem
there was none but whose heart was
touched with keenest sadness. A wealth
ol floral offerings hid from view tbe cas
ket in which bo peacefully reposed the
slumbering form, attesting again bow
greatly bis memory is cherished and re
vered. This morning tbe remains will
be conveyed to Porlville, N. Y., and
after further services, will be laid to rest
in the cemetery at his native borne, by
the side of bis parents gone before.
When it became known that Mr. War
den bad passed away the bum ol Industry
in the village was bushed, not a wheel in
the mills turned and every kind of busi
ness was suspended, and will so remain
until tbe closing of this day.
CAM'IKI.O.
Mary Ann Johnson was born In Glas
gow, Scotland, Deo. 5, 1848. At tbe ageof
three years, she came with her parents to
New York City, wbere she grew to
womanhood. During the early days of
tbe oil excitement, her parents were at
tracted to western Pennsylvania and
found a new home at Petroleum Centre.
Here their daughter Mary met Shelton S.
CanQeld, a young, attractive soldier,
whom sho married July 22, I860. In 1880,
Mr. and Mrs. CanHeld came to Tionesta,
where they won the respect and esteem of
our citizens. In the home life Mrs. Can
field excelled as wife and mother. She
was truly a help meet to ber husband,
and fought tbe battle of life bravely at bis
side. Tbey lived to enjoy Ibe fruit of
tbelr labors and gather about them a fair
conipeteuce of this world's goods. They
were also blessed in seeing their two sons
James aud Harry, and five daughters,
Kate (Mrs. G. T. Anderson), Lucy (Mrs.
Frank Thomson), Janet (Mrs. Harry
Bruner, of Oil City), Minnie (Mrs. Fred
Davis, and Miss Maude grow to man
hood and womanhood surrounded with
the comforts of life. Two years ago Mr.
Canfleld passed away, and since then
Mrs. Canlield made her home with her
eldost daughter. Shu had been in falling
health for some time, but three weeks
ago was able to go to Titusville to visit
ber sister, Mrs. J, C. Conway. While
there she was taken very ill and was re
moved to the city hospital, June 4th, in
the hope that treatment there would
prove beneficial. But it was too late, and
last Friday evening, June 0th, after a
week of intense suffering, she passed be
yond the mystic veil that hides the known
from the unknown, time Irom eternity.
Her daughters, Mrs. Lucy Thomson and
Miss Maude Canlield, were with her
when the end came. Thus one by one
the old familiar friends are slipping away
and we miss them. Perhaps no one of
the older residents of Tionesta will be
more generally missed than the subject of
this Bketch, who bas been so well known
to our people for more than thirty years.
Few, indeed, have been priveleged to
count such a host of friends among ail
classes as did Mrs. Canlield; in fact, we
know of no enemies. This no doubt,
was due to the friendly spirit manifested
by ber towards all. Unselfish to a degree,
she found nothing too hard to do for
those who were in need. In sickness, in
sorrow, in distress, Mrs. Canlield was
ever on hand when family cares would
permit, to do all she could to alleviate the
suffering ones, if possible. Of a naturally
religious temperament, she embraced
every opportunity possible to honor the
Lord by attending divine services. Al
though a respected member of the Meth
odist Episcopal church, ber sympathies
extended far beyond denominational
barriers, aud she found sweet fellowship
among christians of all denominations,
and enjoyed to worship with them. Tbe
singing of by mns was a special delight to
her, and it seemed most appropriate that
a well selected quintette should have been
chosen from tbe Presbyterian and M. E.
churches for tbe funeral services, which
was composed of Mrs. Sharpe, Mr. Gill,
Mrs. Sbrlver, Liuus Slirlyer and Miss
Elva Laoson. The services were held at
tbe residence of Mr. and Mrs. G, T. An
derson, Sabbath afternoon at 4 o, clock,
and were in charge of her pastor, the Rev.
W. O. Calhoun, who was assisted by tbe
Rev. H. A. Bailey, of the Presbyterian
church. The floral offerings were beauti
ful and abundant, which attested tbe es
teem In which Mrs. CanQeld was held, as
well as by tbe large number of friends
who had tbe privilege of attending her
tuneral. And, as tbe peaceful shadows
were falling over the western bills, the
remains of the beloved mother and friend
were laid to rest in our beautiful River
side cemetery to await tbe coming of our
Lord.
WHITNEY.
Mrs. Christiana Whitney died Sunday
morning, June 11, 1011, at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. M. N. Gilbert, in
West Hickory, Pa., after an illness of
four months, of dropsy. Tbe deceased
was tbe daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Thomas
McFadden and was born in tbe mouth of
July, 1822, uear Meadville, Pa. With
the exception of about twelve years
which she speut with her daughter in
West Hickory, almost ber whole life was
passed in Crawford county. Early in
life she was united in marriage with
Noab Whitney, with whom she lived
happily until bis death twelve years ago,
She was a woman of kindly christian
character, beloved by all who knew ber.
Four daughters survive her, as follows:
Mrs. M. N. Gilbert, West Hickory; Mrs.
W. H. DeHart, Findlay, Ohio; Mrs. Mar
garet Beeman and Mrs. J. D. Gilbert,
Tryonvllle, Pa. A short funeral service
was held at ber daughter's borne in West
Hickory, conducted by Rev, G. A, Bar
nard. The body was taken to Tryonvllle,
wbere services were held at the borne of
Mrs. J. D. Gilbert, Tuesday afternoon at
four o'clock. Interment in the Tryon
vllle cemetery.
Electric Storm's Havoc.
Tbe large farm barn of A. W. Albaugh,
on Albaugh hill, Hickory township, was
struck by lightning about five-o'clock
Sunday evening during the heavy storm
prevailing at that time. A valuable
horse and a calf, the only livestock in the
barn at the time were burned up, as were
also all other contents of tbe building, in
eluding about all of the owners farming
machinery and implements. The build'
ing was a fine one, 36x48 and 18 feet high
Almost instantly after being struck the
entire structure seemed to be aflame and
nothing could be saved. Mr. Albaugb
estimates bis loss on barn and contents at
$1,000, and there was an insurance of 500
on the structure, and a small amount on
tbe contents. The loss falls very heavily
on Mr. Albaugb just at a time when there
is so much need of farm machinery.
Over in tbe lower end of Harmony
township the storm was exceptionally
severe. Charlie Emick's orchard was
well nigh ruined by the wind which
stripped several apple trees and destroyed
almost every peach tree on the lot. His
garden was terribly hammered with hail
stones, some of which were near the size
of ben eggs. At tbe Donovau borne, near
Emick's, about all the outbuildings were
blown over, and at tbe barn wbere most
of their furniture has been stored since
tbe burning of their house last winter, a
large door was blown in, smashing tbe
mirror of a large "dresser". Some of tbe
flying glass struck James Donovan on
tbe arm cutting a deep gash on the wrist
and causing muoh loss of blood before It
could be staunched.
The Donovau barn is said to have been
blown about 6 Inches from its foundation.
A party of pleasure seekers from Oil City
had left their two-seated carriage exposed
to tbe elements and had put their horses
in a barn near this place, and when the
storm broke tbe top of tbe carriage was
ripped off and large boles torn in it, and
the mud guards of the vehicle were
twisted and bent out of shape.
In the storm of Monday morning a
bolt of lightning struck the residence of
William Killmer, in this borough, tear
ing off some weather boarding aud on tbe
inside knocked over a curtain pole and
broke some moulding on the baseboard
in the reception hall. Mrs. Killraor sat a
few feet from where the bolt entered, but
aside- Irom slight shock, was not Injured
Tbe barn of Henry McEnany at l'resi
dent, a Bbort distance from tbe hotol
there, was fired by lightning Sunday
evening. Fishermen and others came to
the rescue aud succeeded in gotting out
most of the machinery, but the building
was destroyed. So were about two tons
