Thb forests of Corsica, tbe little island
upon which Napoleon was born, are
managed ly the French government.
They produce lumber, firewood, and
turpentine, and all parts of tbe tree are
far more closely utilized than in America.
Thb American Medical Journal gives
us tbe timely assurance that there is no
Infallible way of distinguishing mush
room from a toadstool except to eat it and
wait results. If it doesn't kilt you il'a a
mushroom. Furthermore, it dispells tbe
beautiful delusion that the mushroom Is
vegetable beefsteak, and declares that
even the most nutritious mushrooms
have little value as lood. With these
fscts in mind the sage of the Punzy
(Spirit comes 10 tbe conclusion therefore
tbst It isn't worth while to run tbe risk of
going to an untimely grave by tbe toad
stool route when you never can tell wbicb
is which, and neither Is of any use any
how.

Col. Drake Day Fittingly Celebrated.
Wednesday of last week was a gala day
for Titusville when hundreds of old time
operators gathered there to celebiate tbe
64th anniversary of tbe striking of oil by
Col. Edwin L. Drske In tbe first well
ever drilled for that purpose. Tbe meet
ing bad for its object tbe perfecting of an
organ iza'ion that shall take up tbe work
of completing the Drake Memorial Mu
seum, aud as such it was a pronounced
success, and the work will be extended
widely and systemat'cally. Among the
many prominent men who, by special
Invitation, spoke at tbe meeting, was our
townsman, Judge Samuel D. Irwin, al
ways hsppy on such an occasion.
Mr. Irwin spoke along tbe line of Pit-
bole as be recalled It in 1N65, but prefaced
it with a letter he bad received from his
brother, II. M. Irwin, now of California,
recalling tbe greatest disaster and the
greatest benefit this section of tbe state
bad known, tbe June frost and the dis
covery of oil by Drake, occurring In the
same year. Tbe letter follows:
"The contrast between tbe gloom and
sullen wretchedness of dire disaster and
the bright, Inspiring iulluence of pros
perity, was seldom more vividly illus
trated than by tbe famous frost blight
that visited this region In 1959, quickly
followed by tbe unexampled good times
of the oil discovery,
"I clearly recall the outlook in Frank
lin that June mornimt. In our garden
the beans, corn, potatoes, and all other
small foliage were frozen to the ground,
and tbe bright sun was at work cooking
tbe remains to a blackened mass, wbicb,
like tbe hosts of Sennacherib, lay with
ered and strewn.
"There were black trimmings on tbst
blsck Sunday. Lsylng aside the habit of
church going that I bad fallen into, I
climbed onto tbe roof of our saddle horse
and aet forth to see what the freeze bad
done to farm and forest. I left tbe valley
by tbe Meadville pike, passing up Sugsr
creek valley toward Cooperstown. Tbe
utter destruction of crops wrought by the
freeze became eadly apparent as I passed
the Hawthorn, McKenzie and other
places, Tbe wheat, wbicb had been in
tbe beading stage, the knee-high corn, tbe
potato vines, etc., all lay a flat, blacken
ing, doleful mass. Tbe forest leaves,
which bsd about full size, were all
crisped, and in tbe air was a pungent
smell as of a burnt olearing.
"When passing near tbe old Sugar
creek Memorial church, I chanced that ita
pastor was Rev, J. Dagg Howey, a young
minister who split bis work between tbe
Utica Presbyterisns and tbe valley folks,
and who bad been classmate of yours at
Jefferson cnljeg. I further recalled hear
ing 'Bloat' McHenry, of Pittsburg, an
other classmate, say to Hon. Samuel
Dodd, also a Jefferson graduate: 'Say, I
spent Sundsy browsing around up Sugar
creek, and dropped into a nice little gos
pel joint in the brush near the road, and
blamed if little Dagg Howey wasn't In
the pulpit, aud be preaches like an angel,
but can't pray a darn.'
"So I turned aside and bitched my nag
near the church. Tbe congregation were
already gathered outside and scattered
about, waiting the hour for service. Tbe
assemblsge hsiled from various parts of
Sugar creek, Jackson, Plum and Canal
townships, and comprised a goodly num
ber of tbe upright aud sterling citizenship
of that region, such as John McKenzie,
Squire Gilllland, William toster, William
Hastings, the Byers, Cranes, etc Al
though these men were of the indomita
ble stock, not easily daunted, tbey all
wore a look of defeat r.nd discourage
ment. Tbe crops, tbe mainstay of the
farmers, were destroyed. Hard times
and scant subsistence were in certain
prospect. Small wonder that a quiet
gloom settled over tbem as tbey recount
ed tbeir losses. A larmer over In Craw
ford county, In despair, bad taken bia
life. It was a doleful situation, past
praying for, or swesring at.
"Ou rising to deliver his discourse,
young pastor Howey did a remarkable
and bappy thing. Laying aside tbe in
tended sermon, he gave out bis text Iroin
tbe prayer of Habakkuk, 'Although tbe
fig tree sball not blossom, and tbe fields
shall yield no meat., and there sball be no
herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in tbe
Loid, I will Joy in the God of my salva
tion.' Inspired by tbe spirit of that text,
be delivered a powerful, cheering and re
assuring message, based on the calamity
tbey were facing. He cited many In
stances to fortify bis argument, showing
bow God's groat law of compensation
runs through all the acts of His provi
dence, and bow that wbicb, at tbe time,
seems only calamity, soon becomes a
thing of light account, if not a blessing.
In closing, be predicted that this present
would soon be seen in tbe retrospect as
only tbe forerunner of a great and gra
cious blessing, with outer times than
they bad yet kuown.
" I he young man's sermon seemed to
take effect and lilt tbe sombre cloud that
bad bung over bis congregation. The
men pulled themselves together, resolved
to trust in the Lord, plant plenty of buck
wheat, bold tbeir heads up, aud look
hopeful and sassy. And that same year,
sure enough, they harvested tbe biggest
crop of buckwheat ever known, and could
view the high price of wheat flour with
out alcrm.
"In the concluding music cf the ser
vices, in the noble hymn of Cowper's,
was the verse:
'Judge not the Lord bv feeble sense,
But trust Him for His graue;
Behind a frowning providence
He bides a smiling face.'
"And within less than three months the
tbe Drake well struck oil, aud that smil
ing lace swiftly rained incredible pros
perity over every farm and hamlet in Ve
nango county, and tbe entire oil region."
Judge Irwin recalled his first experi
ence in the oil business as having takeu
place in Franklin, where the "broomstick
well," put down by Anderson Dodd
whore the Franklin home of Hon. Joseph
C. Hibley is now located. This well, lie
said, produced 18.000 barrels of oil worth
$17,000. Mr. Irwin said ha headed for
Pitbole in 186"), taking with him $1,000, a
soldier of lortune, ami that in addition to
other activities he served a term as its
city engineer. He gsve an interesting
recital of the invention of the sand pump
and of bis witnessing its first tryout in a
dry bole in Pitbole. Judge Irwin spoke
of the palmy days of Pitbole. He told of
the stirring lite and scenes or' tbeold town
in 18t!5, some humorous recitals of the
way the law was administered in minor
cases. He recalled a religious service he
witnessed which was attended by from
10.000 to 12,01)0 people, who were in the
open, the preacher standing In the shade
ol a tree. Mr. Irwin stated that be bad
drawn the plans for the church erected by
Thomas Duncan, wbicb is standidg at the
present time and the only building lelt of
original Pitbole.
