Death of Wm. D. Kelley.
■William D. Kelley, who for nearly thirty
years had repiesented one of the districts
of Philadelphia in Congress, and who tra»
known as the "Father of the House.' died
at his hotel in Washington, D. C., last Fri
day, aged 76 years.
Judge Kelley had attended alike to pub
lic and private dnties until a few weeks be
fore his deatn, and, although an intense
sufferer from a complication of diseases,
his tremendous will power had time and
again carried him through attacks of sick
ness and suffering which would have
stricken down less powerful constitutions.
The old protection warrior fought a gal
lant fight to the last, and death only con
quered six years after the Judge had pass
ed the alloted life of man. Judge Kelley
will always be known in American politi
cal history as one of the ablest and most
eloquent defenders of the national policy
of protection. He will, moreover, rank as
one of the greatest of American authors
and parliamentarians. In debate few men
could copo with him, and in some of the
more important historic debates on the tar
iff he has shown himself as unquestionably
the best equipped man on that question on
the floor. It is safe to say that no other
living man ever mastered the details of the
tariff as Judge Kelley did. His mind was
a complete storehouse of facts and figures
relating to the history of every protected
article. He never forgot anything. He
could remember witn the most remarkable
minuteness conversations, speeches and
incidents which happened a generation,
and even half a century ago, better than
some men remember the occurences of
yesterday. His memory was simply prod
igious.
As a statesman Mr. Kelley was undoubt
edly a very able man, with a large amount
of both political foresight and political sa
gacity. He was invariably in advance of
his party —certainly in all matters relating
to the tariff question. He was the man
who stood fearlessly and defended the tar
ifi and advocated the repeal of the internal
revenue taxes when the more timid Repub
lican leaders were squirming at the at
tacks of the agents of British free trade in
the United States. He was a man of great
courage, of strong convictions, of unflag
ging industry and remarkable persistency.
He was absolutely an incorruptible man.
His public career is without a single stain
or suspicion. An active and influential
man in public life during the corrupting
period of the war and immediately follow
ing, be never wavered frem the ster
ling honesty of purpose which characteriz
ed him as Judge of the Court of Common
Pleas of Philadelphia, and while others
yielded William D. Kelley stood forth,
like Abraham Lincoln, a sincere, earnest,
rugged representative of the common peo
ple.
Poor, perhaps, in worldly goods, Judgo
Kelly leaves behind a reputation which is
rich in what it teaches. His boyhood aud
early struggles show what perseverance and
study will do, if accompanied by honesty
of purpose and earnestness of conviction.
These struggles with hardship in the ear
lier days of his career undoubtedly created
a sympathy for the efforts and aims and
ambitions of young men. There are many
young who received thoir first lift in life
from Judge Kelley. If he could help a
young man bent on helping himself the
great protectionist always did it. And
when ho did it, it was done thoroughly.
His friendship was worth that of an army
ot ordinary men. More than one President
of the United States has referred to the
strength aud earnestness of Judge Kelley's
friendship. Now that he dead the many
splendid qualities of this fine old Aincri
can statesman will be remembered and his
death will be mourned from one end of the
country to the other. Dead he is, but as
his life slowly ebbed in the midst of the
noise and bustle of a Washington hotel, it
must have been a gratifying thought to
the dying orator to feel that although he
was about to pass through the shadow of
the valley of death, the doctrine which he
believed in so earnestly and truly never
had such a strong hold upon the sixty-five
millions of souls which make up this nation
as it bas to-day.

West Virginia's Wealth.
VALLEY FTRSACE, Jan. 13, 1990.—A
few words to entertain the old readers of
the CITIZE.V. You will understand by
Yalley Furnace that the writer is some
where in the mountains of W. Ya.
In the first place to give our readers an
idea of the country, I will explain the
term. "Yalley Furnace."
This is an old furnace, used some thirty
years ago for making iron, which iron,
after being made, had to be drawn by ox
tcams a distance of one-hundred miles, to
the nearest shipping point.
Tho furnace is located in a beautiful
valley and on a stream called Teaters
Creek a branch of the Tygress river. The
surrounding country is wealthy in miner
als, such as Iron and Coal; the coal in
some places shows a thickness of eleven
feet, while the Iron ore vein is from five
to twenty feet. This is one of the finest
mineral countries we have.
Now we will pass over Laurel mountain
and take a ramble in the Cheat river and
Cheat mountain timber fields.
We come to a place called Alum Hill.
At this point the river divides, one part
bearing the name of Black Fork, the other
Upper Cheat.
Between these two rivers is one of West
Virginia's great timber fields.
There, in the dense forest where the
woodman's axe has never been heard, is
an ocean of timber wherein there is not a
stick missing and the principal inhabitant
is the bear and deer.
This timber consists of walnut, cherry,
ash, oak and pine.
The writer being upon one occasion out
on the Cheat Mts. forty miles from any
habitation was without any lood for two
days, but did not forget to look about him
and view the large trees, viewing at one
time, and without moving, thirty large
poplar trees which would make at least
45,000 feet. This is only one place among
many. This timber is accessable by water
and will in time be one of the greatest
lumber yards in the U. S.
Why, sirs, the wealth of West Virginia
has scarcely been tapped. Admitting that
there has been a great deal taken out of
this State, yet the worlds of timber and
the mountains of »re and coal are s:jch that
the mind can scarcely conceive of it.
West Virginia as a farming country is
superior to many other States, its climate
being mild and pleasant. The soil is of a
fine quality, very fertile and more especial
ly along the river bottoms, where it is of a
very dark color.
This is but a very short ramble in this
State, next time will be somo place else.

Light on Tarentum's Crime.
A new move was made in the Tarentuin
murder investigation Tuesday, which ap
parently. added a very strong chain of
ciacumstautial evidence aga'nst Griffin,
one of the three men who killed Mrs.
Rndert.
Detectives Langhurst, Fitzgerald and
Gilkinson secured an order from Court and
took Killain, one of the suspects, up to
Tarentnm. Killain was taken to his
boat-house and made a statement. He
said that on the evening of December 23,
Griffin came to him and hired a skiff.
With Griffin were two men. one a German
and the other a negro. Killain claimed
that he had never seen the two before and
did not know who they were. He then
took the detectives outside his boat-house
to a little mound and dug up a gold watch
and bracelet, which he said, Griffin had
secreted there the evening the tradgedy.
Further than this Killain professed ig
norance, but strenuously denied all per
sonal implication in the murder of Mrs.
Paul Rndert. He was taken back to jail,
and Mr. Rndert will examine the recover
ed jewelry to ascertain whether it was
stolen from his store.
The deteetiyes are confident that the
evidence is conclusive and justifies their
opinion that they have struck th» right
clue. They believe that when they cap
ture Griffin they will have secured one of
the murder rs. They also think that Kil
lain knows more than he will tell, and
that he is himself implicated—probably
indirectly—in the robbery and murder.
His confession is regarded as very impor
tant.
The Pipe Exploded.
CLARION, PA., Jan. 12.—A painful ac
cident occurred at Sand Valley, Madison
township, this eounty, in which James
Stopp, a village blacksmith, was maimed
for life. The accident was caused by the
carelessness of a number of boys. They
went to the blacksmith-shop on New
Year's eve and secured a piece of brass
pipe to use as a cannon. Tho pipe was
loaded full of powder and paper wads, but
f«r some reason it failed to go off. The
boys finding their efforts fruitless thought
lessly threw the pipe on the junk pile in
the shop aud departed without mention
ing the fact to the nnfertunate blacksmith.
Yesterday, however, Mr. Stopp, wishing
to nse some of the iron on the scrap pile
found the pipe and concluded it was just
what he wanted. Holding it in his right
hand he stuck it into the forge fire for
the purpose of heating it. The pipe bad
scarcely touched tho flame when there
was a territfic explosion, tho pipe burst
ing in a dozen pieces, tearing three of his
fingers completely off one hand and other
wise mutilating it so badly that amputa
tion will be necessary. Suit will proba
bly be brought against the boys for mis
chievous mischief.
For the Shenango Road.
Vice President Thomas M. King, of the
Baltimore «fc Ohio, is in the city to-day,
aud while at the Baltimore <fc Ohio offices,
was busy with railroad affairs.
He was in consultation with Frederick
W. Huidekooper, receiver of the Shenan
go Railroad; Col. Samuel Dick and R. H.
Huidekooper, all of Meadville, and all in
terested in the Shenango road. Col. Dick
said: "Oh, we are here on that matter of
our road, the old Shenango road, trying
to see if there is anything in it."
Just what was the purpoose of the con
ference it was impossible to learn, but as
this road is easy of access from the connec
tions of the Baltimore & Ohio, and the
building of a short line would connect it
with the Sharpsburg road, now owned by
the Baltimore & Ohio, no one need be
surprised if the negotiations resulted in
the Baltimore & Ohio acquiring the She
nango road. If put in good condition and
properly equipped, this roud, running as
it does through a rich coal and limestone
section, in which there aro a number of
furnaces, would be a valuable piece of
property to the Baltimore <fc Ohio road.—

A Royal Arch Accident.
HUNTINGTON, W. VA. Jan. 12. —Rev. J.
W. Johnson, of the Methodist Church of
this place, died this morning from the re
sult of injuries received at the Masonic
Lodge Friday night. Rev. Johnson and
Rev. N. F. Marshall, of the Episcopal
Church, were on that evening being initia
ted into the Royal Arch Degree of Mason
ry, and while Mr. Johnson was descend
ind a rope into a pit about thirteen feet
deep t-lio rope broke, precipitating hiui to
the bottom. On being removed to his
home it was found that his injuries were
very painful, but they were not felt to be
dangerous until last night.
TIIK American papers have done Prince
Heur} - of lSattenberg a good turn. A
number of tho metropolitan dailies have
printed a story in their cable dispatches to
the effect that tho Prince before marrying
Princess Beatrice had hawked his title all
oyer Europe as a bait to hook a wife with
a fortune, but was unsuccessful, knowledge
of which facts coming to Victoria's ears,
through a woman who had driven Prince
Henry to such an extremity that she could
no longer blackmail him, the Prince was
banished. The story was true, bnt none
of the English papers had the courage to
publish it. Now news comes from London
that the Queen on Saturday last received
information from America that the matri
monial escapade of her princely son-in-law
had been fully printed here, and she at
once dispatched a special messenger with
an autograph invitation to him to return to
London aud forgiveness. Tho general
opinion is that llcr Majesty was prompted
to tho act to avoid further scandal. She is
said to have expressed her regret that,
after being so long concealod, the Btory of
Battenberg offering his title for sale to a
wife should finally have been public. It
is an interesting episode all through, show
ing how intensely human royalty is, aud tho
moral sequel points emphatically to the
fact that it pays to advertise. There is a
fortune in printer's ink for those who know
rightly how to use it.

Rheumatism
We doubt if there is, or can be, a upecli lc
remedy for rheumatism; but thousand* who
have suffered its pains have been greatly ben
efited by Hood's Sarsaparilla. If you have failed
to find relief, try this great remedy. It correct®
the acidity of the blood which is the cause of tho
disease, and builds up tho whole system.
" I was afflicted with rheumatism twenty years.
Previous to 18S3 I found no relief, but grew worse,
until I was almost helpless. Hood's Sarsaparilla
did me more good than all tho other medicine
lever had." n. T. BALCOM, Shirley Village, Mass.

You will get
One hundred cents
worth of good re

at
HUSELTON'S
FOR EACH AND EVERY
DOLLAR YOU PAY
EVERYTIME, WHETH
ER YOU BE MAN, WO
MAN OR CHILD.
Oar Goods are not marked
up to admit of making you a
present with each and every
purchase as some little dealers
do to try and catch trade.
There must be something
wrong with a business house
that has to offer prizes and
gifts to induce customers to
buy from them; it does not
sound as though their business
was satisfactory to them.
The buyers of Boots and
Shoes nowdays are as smart as
some dealers are; they fully
understand, and don't expect
$1.25 worth of shoe leather for
$1.00; all they want is full
value for their money, and buy
as cheaply as their neighbors
do at one straight price.
They don't want to buy a
shoe at 5i.25 with a little
present thrown in worth ten
cents or less which they should
have paid $1 for, so you see
how it goes.
We don't give presents, but
do present you with more solid
leather for sl, and better
styles than any shoe house in
Butler county.
