A peculiar and most distressing accident happened to Miss Maud Hoover, a well known young woman, at her home at Al liance, Ohio.

Her coLdition is critical. Albert Sibert, an Allegheny Valley brakeman, was killed at the Crystal oil works above the Sharpsburg bridge, a few days ago. The accident was particularly horrible. The train Sibert was braking on was doing gome switching. He got down and ran back to throw a switch. The en gineer saw him give tho signal to come aaead and .started. After the switch had been made Sibert was missed. The train crew started to hunt for him and found one of his shoes sticking in a frog. A little farther on his body was found cut to pieces. Evidently he had caught his foot in the frog after signaling for the train to come ahead. Before he could give anoth er fignal he was run down and ground to pieces by his own train. Sibert was about 25 years old, single and lived at ltedbank. Prof. Hartshorn, who was released from the western penitentiary a few weeks ago, was a Now Castle visitor.

Downieville school of Adams twp clos ed on Thursday evening with one of tln most largely attended and highly praised entertaiunicnts ever given in this part of the county. The term of school just finished began Sept. 30 ami continued through a period of six months i I here wish to say in justice to the pa trons, directors and pupils of the district that I have never received n more hearty co-operation and more real sympathy than has been shown me here during the jiast winter. Many thanks for the same. Jnst a word or two concerning the ex hibition given 0:1 Thursday evening. The weather was not as pleasant as it might have been, yet that dia the people away from the meeting. Space will no' permit mi to tell you of the different rehearsals, deelanations, dia logues, and songs, but will say that all the performers did credit to themselves in their performances. One market! feature of the meeting was the well rendered and highly appreciated music given by the Downieville Orches tra, and others. The performance once over, then oc cured a most surprising,yet highly appre ciated event which consisted in one of the patrons in the name of the school pre senting your correspondent with a hand some purse of Jlo as a remembrance of them and as a manifestation of their sin cere desire for my return as their teacher next winter. Here language fails me to fully express my heartfelt appreciation and*kind regards for that token of re spect, confidence, and love, coming as I believe it did, from the heart of every one of my pupils. Can only say kind pupils, one ami all, I do truly thank you not only for that deed of kindness, but as well for the many other occurences which have taken place during my stay among you as teacher. In conclusion I wish to say to parents, directors, pupils and friends of education in this twp, I leave you with many fond remembrances of your kindness towards me. May God speed the cause of educa tion in the future more than ever Ijefore, until we can look upon our common schools as the great bulwark <>f our Gov ernment. Allan I'ainti.r, Teacher. For Sale.

Job work done here. Saoscribo or the CITIZEN. A Great Industry Thirty years ago, the baking in dustry of this .'ountry was carried on for the] moat part in the i'emily kitchen, and about a dozen varie ties of small cakes in all were made. Bread, cookies, ginger snaps and ginger bread were the most popular article of consumption About that time tho manufacture of cakes by machinery was introduc ed and carried on in a small way in New York, and other eastern cities, and a baker who turned ten barrels of flour a day into cake 3 was con sidered to b9 doing an enormous business. The work was carried on in small and too often dirty shops, where the light of day diu not penetrate and ventilation was out of the question. About that time the Marvin Bakery was established in Pittsburg. Start ing from small beginnings, i l, is now the largest baftery, with one excep tion in tho United States. Cleanliness, sun'ight and veatila tion are considered prime requisitss in that well ordered institution. The materials used in the manufac ture of the endless variety of choice dainties are the very best, the very purest money can buy. The variety of delicious cakes is as tonishing. New ideas in sweets are constantly coming into fashion, and this bakery leads is setting styles. More different kinds of cakes have been originated by this enterprising house than by anv other bakery in the country. Visitors are always welcome and hundreds of people visit this interesting establishment yearly.
