An Accident.

To-day as Messrs. Braunstein q
Headmsn were passing through the
wilds of Forest Co., they met with
serious accident on their journey from
Wing Hill, Pa, to Ridgway, Pa.
While passing down Brush Camp Hill
their horse, man and wagon were
thrown over the read and landed in
the valley below, distance of about
150 feet; the hill has an angle of
about 80 degrees, luckily the man es'
capped uninjured the horse was bruised
considerably, and the goods were
scattered from the place where the
wagon ran over the road to the valley
below; the wagon is all broken up.
This road is in Howe tOwnthipi it is
not passabls for teams ; a man can get
along by some exertiOn. 1t is a dis
grace to the township, and has been
returned repeatedly in our courts.
Respectfully, j. d. G.

The question of a new school
building in this borough will be voted
on next Saturday. 1t is question of
grave Importance to every man, woman
and child in the borough, and as such
should be acted upon with cool and
careful deliberation. The question has
agitated our citizens considerably dur.
ing the past few weeks, and the discus.
sions have been rather warming at
times. The only objection to the meas
ure has been the probability of higher
taxes, the opposers coHtending that the
people could not stand the raise. To
be sure, it would be unwise to vote up
on ourselves a burdensome and un-
reasonable tax, but such need not be
the case. 1t is proposed to build
five thousand dollar school house.
That seems like pretty big figure for
Tionesta, but we believe she could
stand it without bankruptlng single
citizen or property holder. But we
say let that be the maximum figure !;
don't go above it. IF 6 first class brick
building cannOt be completed for that
amount, then build frame structure.
But by all means let US have decent,
comfortable and slightly edifce. The
old house ia, as all know, entirely in
adequate for the purpose, and to build
an addition to it, as has been suggest.
ed, would simply be throwing money
away, yet this will have to be done
unless new building iS erected, as
the old Universalist church is no long
er fit to educate little children in.
Good schools are the best recommen-
dation for town that can be had, aud
will go farther toward building up a
place than anything slse. This no one
will deny. When stranger contem.
plates making his residence In town
his first question invariably is: "What
kind of schools have you :" The
schools are always first in his mind
and taxes afterward. We doH't wish
to dictate in this matter, and if we
thought it was going to be in the least
q detriment to the place we should be
the last one to advocate the measure
Let every voter cast bis ballot as he
honestly believes is right, but let hin
first cast off all selfish or penuriOu'
motives. Should the project fall
through now it may be ten years be
fore We will have another chance tC
vote on the question.

LineVilIe Locals.

Thinking that few items from our
pleasant town and vicinity would be
acceptable, we send the following:
Mr.. David Ebinger, our produce
man, is still driving ode mools," but
he says Oil City is bad place.
Miss Lutisha Kahl, who has been
seriously i'll for nearly four months is
no better, and her recovery is still
doubtful.
Mrs. Fannie Seigworth, who has
been on the sick list for 8 while, is fast
recovering, and is again able to be up
and around.
The farmers here are all we'll pleased
with the present state and appearan-
ces of their crops, and are looking forth
for a season of luxuries, no preventing
Providence.
w. F. Bower and A. F. Korb have
been running a threshing.machine for
two past seasons ; this winter they have
been running a schoolmarm in Co.
The former works very we'll, but as to
the latter we are not as yet able to
state.
Mr.. A. Markley and A. Ditz, Of
Fryburg, have bought and set up a
limestone crusher at that place, and
are at present bLsily engaged manu-
featuring lims.dust, which it is claimed
is more beneficial to the soil then burnt
lime. The price of crushed lime is
from three to four dollars and one ton,
it is said, is equal to about ten OF
burnt lime.

DIED.

NYBURG.-In Neilltown, Forest Co.,
Pa, at her home in her mothers house.
March II, 1881, Mrs. Lucy NJ, wife Of
G. o. Nyburg, and daughter of Peter
Landers, deceased, and Mrs. Caroline
Landers, of puerperal fever, aged 20
years, l month and Il days.
This sad event, so sudden and un-
looked for, falls with double sorrow
upon hearts already filed to the full.
Mrs. Nyburg had been sick for short
time-about four days-preceding her
death, and it seems more dream, ter
rble phaDtasm, than the sad reality
it is. The funeral services took place
on Saturday following her decease, her
body being laid away in its last sleep
in the churchyard at Neiltown. Rev.
Mclaughlin conducted the services.
The number in attendance attested
well as to the high estimation and re-
spect in which she had been held
while living, and also to the sincere
sorrow awakened by her death. Mrs.
Nyburg was a member Of the Pfesby-
terian church and christian; aud
while her calling away brings a cup
of bitterness, overlooking, to the lips
of her husband and family there is
sweetness in the thought, there is light
in darkness from the assurance, that
she has gone ito be with Christ which
is far better" Mrs Nyburg leaves
two children, aged year and 5 months
and month and , days respectively

The excitement in the vicinity Of

that locality in spite Of themselves.
New rigs are going up aud everything
is indicative of lively times in the near
future. Shultz & Morck, who have
the most extensive leases around the

mence drilling forthyith.
The new strike holds out good and
is now a % barrel we'll, good and
strong. 1t has never been shot but
flows naturally, and has since it
was struck, which is conclusive evi.
dence that the source from which it
draws it supply is unlimited for time
at least. Doubtless if the well was
torpedosd it wonld 60 one or two hun
dred barrels competent judges think
this to be the case.

''The Bible, Webster's Dictionary,
and a good newspaper fit man for

next" The newspaper that printed
the best and most beautiful side of

Mr.. Talmage urged that imperson-
ality should be dropped, and spoke
of the time when leading editorial
writers used to affix their initials to
their articles. If such an idea were
in vogue at this time. the writers
would get credit for all the things
they wrote, and would be response
BILE for all the bad things. The uni
versities, Mr.. Talmage believed,
should have departments for the
training of editors and reporters.

GEORGIAN BEAUTY.-Georgia, /
need scarcely mention, Is the famed
land of beauty, and the men we had
with us in the train, or saw here
and there in town or country, do not
certainly belle their reputation, for
they are mostly tall and well made,
and have the chiseled nigh brow,
the thin aquiline nose, the good
mouth, peculiar to the Caucasian
type. They all, high and low, affect
the Oriental garb-wearing long,
dark, almost trailing garments,
round fur caps, or white cloths,
urban fashioned, but cumbrously
and Enthusiastically, if not pic
turesquely falling in folds and flaps
to their shoulders; and all are grit
with a silver belt ON which hang a
ponderous cimeter and long yata-
phan. The practice of bearing
arms is as universal among these
Christians as among their most saw
age Mussulman fellow-subiects,
though there Is nothing warlike or
even very manly in the look and
bearing of these backbonelessG eor-
gians, who cannot forget how little
their weapons avail them against
Persians and Turks, from whose in
roads they could find no other escape
than in an ignoble surrender of their
national existence; no refuge from
the Turk except in the arms of the
Russ. Of the beauty of the Geor-
gian women no very striking speci-
mems came anywhere in our way.

females of all ranks have their
cigarette cases in their pockets /; but
