DEATH OF Mrs. ALPBoNso HART

DEATH OF Mrs. ALPHoNso HART.
Many readers will be panied at the
information of the death of Mrs. AL
phonso Hart, ut the family residence
on Cedar street, at u o'clock on Tues
day, September 22d. For some time
Mrs. Hart has been in delicate health,
and some weeks since was taken to
the Elmira IN. " Water cure for
treatment. Two weeks ago she re-
turned home, not having derived any
benefit. On Saturday last her friends
became much alarmed at her cOndi-
ton api on Monday the conclusion
was reached that she could not recov-
er, though her death was not so quick
ly anticipated. Tuesday morning she
was told that she must die. She re-
ceived the information calmly and
called her two young children-aged
nine and five years-to her bedside
andbade them an a~ffectionate farewell.
Then leaving a touching message for
her husband, who was absent, she
quietly and peacefully passed from
life. Mrs. Hart was a lady whose do
nestle virtues secured for her univer-
sal respect, and whose character was
pure, beautiful and womanly. Those
who are bereaved have the tenderest
sympathy of this community.
a vigorous effort was commenced
on Saturday to secure the return of
Mr.. Hart, who had been absent some
weeks, participating in the State can
vass, butthese efforts were not success
full as that gentleman was unable to
reach home until after the death of
his wife on Tuesday.-PortGgc Co.
Dem.
Mrs. HART, formerly Miss PECK
previous to her marriage, a resi-
dent of Warren, and here she had
many acquaintance and friends in
her girlhood days, to whom no doubt
her memory is still dear, and by whom
her death will be sincerely lamented.

Golden wedding in Meathersaeld.

EDITOR CHRONICLE On he 18th
ultimo, one of these rare and pleasing
incidents took place at the residence
of Mr.. WIN. NORRIS, and was a source
of much satisfaction TO the extensive
family connections and their numer-
GUS friends, who participated in the
reunion. The occasion is n that
seldom comes in our day and genera
ton there being few instances where
two people live together in the
marriage relation for the period of
fifty a and to something of this
nature the poet probably referred,
when he penned the words length
ened sweetness long drawn OUT"
certainly, the muse referred to no
bachelors joys, as they are probably
of short duration. The venerable
bride and groom, hale and hearty,
entered into the spirit of the occasion
and contributed largely to the fund OF
enjoyment and good feeling that pre-
vaded the large company that assem-
bled to celebrate the 50th Anniversary
of their wedding day. The most
important events of their long and
active life were discussed, from which
discussion it appears that their lives
have not been prOtracted by luxury or
ease, on the contrary they have always
labOred incessantly, and contented
themselves with such comforts as their
industry and frugality could provide.
VIM. NORRIS was born in Mon
mouthshire, England, Oct. 10th, 1896.
MARY JONES NOW his wife, was born
in Glamorganshire, Wales, Aug. 18th,
1897. They were married August
18th, 1918, and have given birth to IA
children, eight of whom they survive.
They have twenty grand children and
one great-grand child. Nearly all
of the surviving offspring, with the
members of their different families,
were present upon this occasion,
manifesting their affectionate graft
tude to the happyObride and groom, by
shOwering upon them rich and valua-
BILE presents. Mr.. NORRIS was a
practical miner, from his earliest boy
hood, and did much towards develop
ing the Anthracite Coal regions of
Pennsylvania, and it is a familiar
boast of his that he can cut his ton
of coal as quick as the best of the
young men to-day. Those who know
him best do not are to pick up his
gauntlet.
Ineed not remind your readers how
much the sons of these people have
done towards developing the mineral
resources of the Mahoning Valley.
They were among the coal pioneers
here, and are second to none now

Miraculous Escape from being ''GOb-


NILES, Sept. %, 1858.
Mr.. EDTTOR:-PeThaps you don't
believe in ghosts, spOOks COLLINS, etc?
Perhaps your hair was never put on
end, like the quilts of the fretted por-
cupine, by some awful supernatural
spectacle? Well there are some people
who have seen; as a remarkable case
In this place will prove. Last Satur-
day evening, a young man connected
with the American House, went TO
milk the cows. While engaged in
drawing the tactical fluid, and all
around was still, a hoTrid sound from
the barn broke upon his ear. He
pricked his ears and listened, and 10,
the awful sound was repeated. The
terrified youth leapedthe garden fence,
and made fOr.the bar room for help,
where in a state of intense excitement
he succeeded in making known the
dreadful circumstance, and secured
the assistance of another young man,
of lightning rod fame, to go with him
to the scene of terror. With a light
ed lamp, and bated breath, and eau
tiOus step, they went TO the barn,
when a most demon like sound car
ried terror to their very souls and
flight to their legs. The lamp was
dropped, and a vigorous stampede
made, n of the parties colliding
with the pump, was discovered prac-
Using the "Grecian Bend in its most
agonized form. AfterrecOvering their
sudden decentralization, they rallied
again, and arming themselves with a
pitchfork and a whip, renewed the as
sault, proceeding with slow and
stealthy tread. Here he is" cries
the more reckless adventurer of the
two. This was the signal for a retreat
to the house. Another charge and a
discovery. 1t was not a ghost, or COB
lin, but it was a turkey go6ler, which
the host of the American had provi-
ded for his table, and left tied in the
barn, and the tapping of its wings had
terror to the souls of the heroic
youths, whose slumbers were that
filled with visions of great focks
of big red gilled turkey gobblers, cha
sing them through the barn yard, and
to gobble them up. Y.

Newton Affairs.

NEWTON FALLS, Sept. %, 1865.
EDITOR CHRoNIcLE:-Our Grant
Club was addressed on Saturday even
ing last by Hon. L. d. Woodwork of
Mahoning county. There was alarge
audience present and an excellent
speech delivered. The meeting closed
with rousing cheers. Our excellent
brass band furnishedgood music.
Yesterday, Dist inst, we attempted
to raise a splendid pole, near the Town
Hall. When up some distance, the
ropes broke, and the pole fell, n of
the tackle blocks striking Mr.. VIM.
Bell on the head, telling him to the
ground, insensibIe. Some secession
and rebel sympathizers of the Sey-
mour tribe, INDUCED in such remarks
as-"Good enough for him." mo
need to have been in such business ;
zone less id Republican vote" &c.
The rebels reported him dead the
next day; but we are happy to state
that he is recovering, and will be on
hand to vote on election day.
Owing to the lateness of the hour it
was deemed best to postpone the rails
ing of the pole till after the meeting,
as the people were pouring into town
from every direction. The neighbOr-
ing towns were largely represented,
the people coming with four horse
teams, banners, flags and music. The
meeting was held in a grove, and a
very able and interesting speech wa
made by Prof J. H. RHODES. AT the
close of the meeting the boys went at
the pole with renewed energy, and set
it up all right.
Our Young America Republicans,
a few days since went to the woods,
selected a fine pole, nearly as large as
the other, and put it up.
Our citizens have decided to have
an Agricultural, Horse and general
Stock exhibition-such a fair as New
ton Falls is noted forgetingup-which
will be held Oct. 18th and 10th. We
expect a good fair and lots of fun.

tone in the market here, and with a full at

ed sharp at full prices. The supply was mod
crate, and consisted of a better class of stock
than has graced the sale pens for some time
past There was a visible diminutiOn in the
number OF poor Cows and half-fattened
Steers, and a corresponding increase in the
latter grades. There was a high demand for
choice shipping Steers for the New York,
Boston and Albany market, and fat, smooth
lots, OF from l,AO to LOO Ms average, found
eager purchasers at S6,5OG7,25. "The Jews"
were out in full force, and succeeded in pos
seSsing themselves Of the bulk Of the choice
stock offering. There was also a reasonably
active inquiry for choice fat Cows, and medf-
UNI to fair feshy Steers for such points as
Detroit, Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Cleveland,
and suitable lOGs were readily disposed Of at
remunerative prices; sales making at $3.50
500 for averages of from 800 to l,lO0hs About
the usual lumber was taken for home con-
sumption, at a range of $4,000 for common
mixed lots to choice fat Cows and Medium
Steers and Oxen. Stock Cattle met with a
better inquiry than on any previous day for
the past fortnight, but the light supply of
suitable grades in the market, and the differ
ence between the views of buyers and sellers
prevented anything like an active move
ment- sales were reported at S,OO84,75 for
