George H. Warden, of Endeavor,
while in Titusville, Satuiday, with his
new Hudson car, met with an accident
which nearly resulted in the loss of bis
machine. He bad driven up to one of
the city garages to get some gasoline
and they carelessly spilled it all over the

the gasoline Ignited, but George jumped
out aud pushed the car away from the
gasoline that had run down under the
car and the men at No. 1 hose bouse
saved the car by their quick work with
lire extinguishers. Very little damage
was jone and George got away without a
buru.
During the storm last week lightning
struck the bouse of John Cu liner at

knocked boles in the floor and no part of
the bouse escaped some effects of the

at borne at the time and it was fortunate,
also, that no fire was caused by the elec
trio bolt. Mr. Culmer's borne was al

An Interesting Law Suit.
Evidence in a case of peculiar interest
was beard at Warren last week involving
a contest In equity between Alwilda
DaelhaUBenof MoUraw, and the heirs of
he late Hugh Miles, whose death oc
curred less than a year ago at bis borne
at Fagundus, two miles out from
Trtiokeyville station. He was 92 years
of age at tbe time of bis death, and some
years prior to bis demise Miss Daelbausen
had been employed as bis housekeeper.
She continued in bis employ until bis
death, some years prior to wbicb Mr.
Miles deeded ber bis properly wbicb
consisted of three pieces of land, the
grant also including bis personal effects
and some cash. The heirs claim that
undue influence was exercised over tbe
old gentleman in inducing him to assign
to ber tbis property, and considerable
testimony was taKen on both sides of tbe
case to show tbat Mr. Miles, for Borne
time prior to bis death, either was or was
not capable of transacting business or ex
ercising good Judgment in the disposal of
bis property, Tbe heira who are con
testing the case number about fourteen,
and tbeir case is being bandied by
Alexander A Clark of Warren, and
Breene A Breene of Oil City.
Miss Daelbausen takes tbe ground that
she never received wages from Mr. Miles,
but that ber relations were the same as
those between daughter and father. Con
sequently she claims tbat she has mo'O
right to the property than the heirs who
are mostly nieces and nephews. Her
case is In oharge of D. I. Ball of Warren
and A, C. Brown of Tionesta. Among
the witnesses for tbe defense who testified
to tbe soundness of mind of old Mr,
Miles were tbe following from Tionesta:
G. G. Gaston, J. D. W. Reck, J. W.
Landers, Joseph Clark, A. M. Doutt, Mrs,
Alice Swauson,
Tbe case will not be decided before tbe
next term of court, tbe proceedings last
week being in tbe nature of a bearing as
to whether tbe Judgment shall beopened.
On Ibis question the court will render bis
decision in due time.
Mineral Production of Forest County
In 1913.
Tbe Topographic and Geologic Survey
Commission of Pennsylvania furnishes
the following facta regarding Forest
county's mineral products:
The only mineral production reported
from Forest county in 1913, as In 1912,
was petroleum aud natural gas.
There was but little difference in tbe
output ol petroleum reported, tbe total as
near as can be ascertained from the re
ports received, being 186,000 barrels, with
a value of $473,000 as compared with 184,
000 barrels with a value nf$'l02,000 in 1912.
It Is impossible to separate the produc
tion of natural gas from the total produc
tion of tbe State with tbe degree of cer
tainty desired. Tbe conditions attending
tbe piping of natural gas renders It al
most impossible to separate the output
from tbe different counties, and at 'the
best there Is a large eleme it of uncer
tainty concerning tbe value of thia out
put in any limited area. From tbe re
ports received the value of the natural
gas output from Forest County in 1913 la
estimated as between $200,000 and $250,000.
but as stated tbis is a mere estimate based
on those returns which are accurate and
an arbitrary division of the remaining
production In tbe State.

compliance of bis request aud a very
large concourse of friends atteuded bis
luiitral wbicb was conducted at bis house
by bis own request. Rev. Scherer of En
deavor delivered a very feeling discourse
on tbe occasion. It seems bard tbat after
a few years of happy life together the end
should be so abruptly ended. It Is
known by all In our town that the now
sorrowing widow done all in her power
to com lor t and help the now departed
comrade. Tbe kind husband and Com
rade of the G. A. R. now stands nearer
tbe throne of l!ght, his work on earth is
well done; be has gone to receive a crown
not made brilliant witb costly gems of
earth, but a crown of rejoicing, and al
though the widow may encounter auettle
here and there, most of her pathway will
bestrewn with flowers. Her future ap
pears bright, and iu the course of nature
it cannot be long until, following our de
parted comrade, her own weary feet will
press the gales of death and be anchored

A Word About Bread
Teaches ei. Lesson In
The Buying of
Clothes.
If we were to buy flour a few pounds at qjime and hire a man to bake one loaf
at a time, would you buy this bread and pay a profit on it even if it were the best
bread you ever ate? It would be mighty good bread at a rich man's price.
This is a rather extreme example, but it illustrates one point some men can
afford to pay long prices for exclusive tailored s-iits, but it is a question as to wheth
er they get any better satisfaction thathe man who buys on a more practical and
economical basis.
The makers of our kind of ready-to-wear clothes buy their cloths and trim
mings in immense quantities -tailor the clothes in the most scientific manner, and
while we do not state we can fit all men tho exclusive tailor has his place we
could fit a whole lot of men with our ready for service clothes, a whole lot better
than the exclusive tailor, and fur a lot less
prove the assertion.
