In him new Orleans will get an authority on steel construction who has been extensively consulted by the great contracting lirms of the East." Our Mr. Derickson no doubt feels a just pride in the achievements of bia young brother, whose age ia yet below forty.

The new 411 ton locomotive for the Coleman lumbering plant was transported down from Nebraska Saturday. The trip was made by water, two coal II tls coupled together being needed to carry the heavy machinery. A track waa laid from the railroad iu the Nebraska yards to the boats upon which timbers had been laid to distribute the weight as much as possible. When the boats, which were manned by Lewis Cook's mew, readied the Coleman plant, tracks were again laid to the logging road and the locomotive was run with its own steam to the main track, and baa siuce been making regular trips to the timber woods. The company now has two engines In commission, and it ia not thought that there will be any further delays on ac count of a shortage of stock, aa baa been the case for several weeks while awaiting the arrival of the new engine and the re pairing of the old one. That the new locomotive was landed at the plant with in six hours of the time it waa turned over to him at Nebraska, and without a scratch on her paint, shows how well Lewis Cook planned and carried out the transportation problem, and as one man remarked, "it was a man's job." A Viele gasoline Motor Car, made In Warren, has been placed on the S. & T. Railway. The car was brought down to Nebraska from Sheffield Monday night and made Its first trip up the road Tues day morning. It has been having aome trouble from heatiug journals, but wben these difficulties are smoothed nut it will make a fine passenger service for the road. The car Is 70 feet long and will seat comfortably 48 passengers, but the seating capacity can be Increased in an emergency. The matters of the car wish to give it a good test under actual work ing conditions and have placed it on the S. T. road for a month. Whether the 8. A T. management purchases the csr will depend on how well it makes good. During the storm which passed over this section Sunday evening shortly after nine o'clock lightning struck George Monday's best 'arm barn located on the right of the road leading to Hunter's sta tion, two miles below Tlonests. The fire that ensued consumed the structure In a very short lime. Fortunately Mr. Mon day bad turned hia horses and all the livestock out to pasture during the day thus saving them from cremation, sa all the contents, a buggy, two sets of harness and some farm implement, were burned up, the rire being so fierce that these articles could not be rescued. The loss on the build lug is n ,t less than $700 on which there was sn Insurance of $100. The loss on oon ents will total about $75, fully covered by Insurance. The barn connected with the Maple Shade Hotel, at Tylersburg, was totally destroyed by a fire which broke out about 2:30 last Saturday morning. Wben dis covered the Ore bsd gained such head way that it could not be checked. The property was owued by John Oudett, who purchased the Central House from Christ. Miller about a year ago. At that time be moved over to the Central, and since then I lie Maple Shade property has been vacant. Tbe building waa a one story structure, about 50x50 feet. It con tained nothing of value and the loss will not be heavy. We understand there waa aome Insurance, The origin of the fire is not known. Tbe barn of George Brews ter, standing across an alley from the burned building, waa on lire but was saved. , The criminal charges of Involuntary manslaughter, growing out of the break ing of the dam at Austin, Pa., September 30, 1011, which resulted In tbe loss or 80 lives and practically obliterated Austin, a village of 3,000 persons, wss to have come to trial against George C. Bay less, presi dent, and Frederick M. Hamlin, super intendent of tbe Bay less Pulp and Paper company, owners of the dam, at Wells boro, Pa., on Monday. Upon tbe repre sentations of the defendanta that a fair trial could not be bad in Potter county, Pa., where the catastrophe occurred, a change of venue waa granted to Tioga county a year ago. Several timea the trial of tbe cases had been postponed, but District Attorney Harry Nelson stated that he will now insist that there be no iurther postponement. Tbe Austin dam horror occurred nearly two years ago and the fa3t that the trial could be staved off this long tends to show bow lax the authorities are In bringing to punish ment those responsible fur such catastro phes. Fire At Forest Barge Co. Yard. A lire entailing a loss of about $600 oc curred at the yarda of tbe Forest Barge Company, located at the eastern approach to Ibe river bridge at West Hickory, Fri day night. Tbe blaze was discovered by the watchman at the taunery on the oppo site side of the river about midnight and Immediately the alarm was given. Tbe prompt response aud prodigious efforts of tbe men about the town were alone responsible for saving the entire plant from destruction, for the lire had gotten well under way wben tbe fighters arrived. As It waa, two buildings, tbe tool house In which are stored all of Contractor Carson' tools and Implements, and the spinning bouse Ij which was stored a large amount of spun oakum and other material, were consumed. The loss to Mr. Carson will not be less than $300, aud the company's loss will foot up fully as much. Neither carried any inauranoe. Tbe trestle of the Hickory Valley rail road's switch runs into the yard and a car load of barge timber stood almost directly over tbe buildings. This trestle waa on fire and tbe supports were badly charred, but by great efforts the tire was gotlen under control before these were burned off. Had not the lire been stopped hern the entire plant would undoubtedly have been taken, together with a newly finished barge that still rested upon tbe ways. Had this happened tbe loss would have been belweeu $0,000 and $7,000, be sides putting the plant out of commission for a greater part of the summer. As it is tbe employes will be thrown out of work for a week or more. The cause or origin of the fire Is a mystery as there had I een no fire near the building in which it originated the day previous.

Memorial Day in Tionesta, last Friday, proved snother long to be remembered by those who engaged In its observance. Wblle Ibe day opened threateningly, Providence was kind to the few remain ing veterans and gave them a day that was neither too hot nor too cold, but one that was just right, and permitted them, with tbe assistance of their efficient aids, the Woman's Relief Corps and tbe Sons or Veterans, to carry out their program in a manner perfect aud splendid. After tbe noon luncheon, prepared by the Corps ladles, a line was formed and the veterans, just eighteen in number, marched to the river, beaded by a good martial band composed of Jacob Cropp, A, W, Albaugh, George Henshaw and Ed. Baumgaidner, and escorted by the Sabbath school children carrying beautiful flowers, where the fragrant emblems were strewu upon the watera In commemoration of the dead sailors aud marines. From theuce the march waa again taken up to Riverside cemetery, which never looked prettier than tin tills occa sion. Here tbe Graud Army vitual was beautifully carried out, tbe graves of the dead heroes being strewn with flowers by the Sons of Veterans who iu this service took the places or the veterans. It was noted with pleasure that during tbe past year not a new veteran grave bad been added. The impressive but beautiful cere monies at the cemetery completed, the veterans and their long train of friends marched to the court house. Here the chief marshal, Geo. W, Robinson, called the assemblage to order, and after prayer by Rev. Mr. Burton, and the reading of Lincoln's Gettysburg address by D. VV. Clark, introduced the orator of the day, Hon. John L. Mattox of Oil City, whose address waa a real gem. Mr. Mattox re ceived bia early education in a Soldiers' Orphan school, his father having dUd In tbe service of his country, and reference to and reverence for the old soldiers throughout his address touched a sympa thetic chord in every heart, and we doubt whether ever a speaker on a similar occasion so held the attention of bia audi ence to tbe last word as did he. At least never iu this place. The address waa not long, all too short iu fact, and the un usually large audience would gladly have listened a full hour longer. Mr. Mattox waa generously applauded and congratulated at the conclusion ol hia address. The singing or "America," by theaudi ence and tbe pronouncing or the benedic tion by Rev. Burton fittingly ended the beautiful observance of another Memorial Day in Tionesta. Big Auction Sale of Horses.
