The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1880-05-26

The Hanlan. Courtney boat race
at Washington, d. G., on wednesday
last was another grand fzzle, so to
speak. Both oarsmen started, but
Courtney weakened on the first quar-
ter got sick as he claims-and gave
up the race. Hanlan rowed leisurly |
over the course and took the prize.
This winds up Courtney's rowing
career effectuRlly.
The census enumerators for this
tenth district have all been appointed.

-Edenburg, Clarion Co., was Gre
mated for the fourth time on Saturday
NIGHT last. The fire was the work Of
an incendiary as usual. The entire
business portion of the town was de
r stroyed, entailing a loss of nearly
ninety thousand dollars. Very few
: dwellings we're burned, consequently
/. the distress among the inhabitants has
t not been so great as at previous fires.
