MONUMENT FOR OLD SOLDIERS.
Members of the O. A. R., Sons of Vet-
erans and W. R. C. Have Taken
the Matter in Hand. .
A large monument is to be erected in
the Reynoldsville cemetery in honor of
the dead sold lei of this community.
The cemetery company has promised to
give a suitable lot In the cemetery for
the monument. A joint meeting of
members of the G. A. R. Post, Sons of
Veteran Camp and Womens Relief
Corps was held Monday evening and it
was deoided to raise money by subscrip
tion to erect the monument, which will
be something pretty nloo, and why not?
Other towns rear monuments In honor
of their soldier dead, and were not the
soldier boys that went out from our
community just as brave and loyal as
any of the boys that ever shouldered a
gun? We say they were and that an
Imposing monument should be erected
to their memory. If every person gives
a little, enough money oan be raised to
erect a large monument and no one will
miss the amount they contribute. The
monument should not cost less than
$1,000.
Subscription papers will be In circu
lation in a few days and those who ask
for subscriptions for this fund, whether
it be a member of either ot the three
organizations mentioned above, will
wear a G. A. R., S. of. V. or W. R. C.
pin, and any persons soliciting subscrip
tions without one of these pins on can
be considered an impostor and should
be promptly refused a subscription.
End of the Lecture Course.
The last number of the public school
lecture course was given in Assembly
hall Thursday evening by Prof. Edward
P. Elliott, of Boston, in a recital of the
famous drama, "The Lion and the
Mouse." One of the largest crowds of
the season was present and judging from
the close attention throughout were
highly Interested as well as pleased
with the reader's portrayal of modern
financial and political conditions. "The
Lion" was John D. Rockefeller under a
fictitious name and If Mr. Elliott's vivid
representation of him was correct he
Is a decidedly unamlable old gentle
man. There were seven different
characters to be represented of widely
varied types and the reader has never
been surpassed In Reynoldsville in the
ease with which he carried the Imagin
ation of the audience from one person
or point to another. Altogether the
people bad no reason to regret the fail
ure of Mr. Glllllan. the announced fifth
entertainer, to fill bis date on the 1st
Inst.

MURDER IN FIRST DEOREE.
Waa the Verdict of the Jury in Case of
Domenico Remanno Second Degree
for Ooronlmo Meszanotte.
In the criminal court in Jefferson
county last week Domenico Remanno
and Geronlmo Mezzanotte were tried
on the charge of murdering Julian
Clsovltch at Sykesville In the fall of
1905. The case was given to the jury
at 11.00 a. m. Saturday and at 9.00 a. m.
Surday the jury returned a verdlot pi
guilty of murder in the first degree for
Remanno and murder in the second de
gree for Mezzanotte.
These defendants were tried a year
ago for aggravated assault and battery
with Intent to kill, and Clsovltch was
a witness against them. They were
sentenced to the penitentiary for seven
years. A couple of days after they
were sentenced Clsovltch died from the
effects of their assault. The men were
brought back from the penitentiary in
January to be tried on charge of mur
der, and the verdict against them was
as above stated.
Judge Joseph H. Bouton, of McKean
county, heard this murder trial and will
have to return to Brookville to sen
tence Remanno and Mezzanotte, which
will not likely be for several weeks.
Antony Loretto, who was one of the
men that assaulted Clsovltch, escaped
arrest at that time, but the latter part
of last year he was arrested at Dunkirk,
N. Y., and at the January term of the
Jefferson county court was found guilty
of murder la the first degree. A mo
tion was made for a new trial and at
the argument court in March Judge
Reed heard the case, but has not given
his decision yet whether a new trial
will be granted or not.

ping on a live wire. Funeral took place

Metboaist church near his residence
was on fire and In going to the church
about 1.00 a. m. to investigate his feet
became entangled in a wire, and Mr.
Neal stooped down and took hold ot the
wire and was instantly killed. It was
a Summerville telephone wire which
had come in contact with a trolley or

war. He enlisted in company F, 105th
regiment, P. V., February 19th, 1862,

At her home in Chicago on Fri
day, April 12, Grace Gorsllne Merrick

that insidious and fatal disease, con
sumption. All that loving hearts and
tenderest care' could do had been done
for her. She had spmt two years in
the balmy air of California and had
apparently Improved, but the dread
disease was not vanquished. Deceased
was a granddaughter of Mrs. George
G. Sprague and a neice of Mrs. Dr. B.
E. Hoover, of this placo, her mother
having been a daughter of Mrs.
Sprague. Mrs. Merrick had been a
visitor in Reynoldsville many limes and
one winter attended school in the old

in Randolph, N. Y., and there her
father, W. W. Gorline, still lives.
She had made her home id Chicago

by her husband, Frank W. Merrick,
and one son, Ward. Mrs. Merrick was
a general favorite with all who knew

business or what ever she undervook.
Her many friends will truly sympathise
with her husband, son and father.
