SAD DEATH OF BROTHER VINCENT.-We
deeply regret to announce the death OF
Brother Vincent, o. S F, which sad event
occurred at the monastery of St Francis
College, Lorotto, on last Saturday evening
We do not know his age, but suppose 1t TO
have been between SIXTY five and severity
years. He was born in Ireland and came to
this country fourteen years ago, proceeding
at once to LoIetto, where after spending ten
years at the College as one of its professors,
ne was sent to Altoona for the purpose of
teaching in the Catholic schools in that city.
Only few months ago he returned TO st.
Francis. The cause of the accident which
resulted in his death is difficult to explain
1t appears that on Wednesday of last weak
he was engaged in whitewashinp the ceiling
of the old chapel at the College, and did his
work on a platform or scaffolding R6t more
than six or seven feet high. which he had
erected for that purpose. While ne was at
his work Rev. Father John Ward visited the
chapel, had brief conversation with Brother
Vincent in reference to the improvement he
was making in its appearance, and Just as'he
(Father Ward) was about to pass out of the
door ne heard noise as of some one falling,
and turning around saw Brother Vincent
lying on the floor. Whether he made a mis-
step on the platform, or was stricken by
paralysis or apopexy, must ever re main a
mystery. He was Immediately removed to
his room and the College physician summon
ed to his bedside, but all efforts failed to re-
SuScitate him or even restore the Gift of
speech. lie renamed in c0matOSe state
until Saturday evening, when his gentle spirit
returned 70 the God who gave it, and whom
he served so long and faithfully. Brother
Vincent possessed high order of intellect
and had stored his mind with vast amount
of profound and varied knowledge. No man
was ever more sincerely beloved and respect
ed for his gentle and kindly nature and for
the intense zeal he always manifested for the
welfare, happiness and instruction OF chill

head and heart that 90 to make up Il true
man and a devOut Christian. His memory
will ever be cherished by those who knew
him at st. Francis, as well as in Altoona
where the expressions of regret and sorrow
over his death is confined to no class or circle
In society. His remains we're laid to rest
with fitting ceremonies on Monday forenoon

The Chatauqua Scientific Literary
Circle graduated their first class num-
bering over 1,4oo last month. This is
the time to begin the course of study
for the new year. Thirty minutes a
day for nine months of the year will ac-
complish what is required. The sole
expense is so cents, to meet cost :sof
correspondence and about S.. for the
books ofthe year. The studies are
followed at home as directed by cor
respondence. Many persons will find
an advantage in the stimulus such a
course of reading gives, as also in the
direction received in the selection of
books. Some forty thousand are
members of this circle, living in all
parts of the country and representing
every age. class and condition. A
wish has been expressed by some to
begin these studies and form a circle
in Brookfeld. We commend the idea,
believing that no more profitable use
can be made of a portion of each day
than in the careful reading ofthe books
laid down in this four years Chautau-
qua Scientific and Literary Circle
Br00kfeld Gazette.
1t has been suggested that a class
be organized here, and We hope it will
be done. Particulars and information
In regard to the matter can be had by
applying to the GRAPHIC librarian.

OUR CHOICE FOR CONGRESS.

1t having been definitely settled
that the committee will not fill the va
cancy occasloned by the declination OF
Col. Anderson, the greenback nomi-
nee for congress, leaving, therefore,
Coils Hatch and Glover as the sole
contestants in the congressional race,
1t will now be in order for the green.
hackers to make choice between the
two candidates.
Let us consider the relative merits
and dement's of the gentlemen named
and Judge their fitness or unftness
from the record they have made for
themselves within the halls of congress.
Glover has proved himself to be an
unyielding foe of public plunderers !;
Hatch voted for the river and harbor
steal.
Glover endeavored to rid the public
service of its thieves: Hatch stands in
with them and receives lucrative posi-
tons for his favorite strikers.
Glover was retired before his report
Of the enormous frauds perpetrated by
republican and democratic officials
could be acted upon by the house !;
Hatch solemnlYpledged himselfin every
court house in the district to carry on
the good work begun by Col. Glover,
but during his four years of Office he
has made no effort to fulfil his solemn
promise to his constituents
Glover has the moral courage and
inclination to fight corruption. Hatch
is lacking in both these necessary
qualifications.
Glover is the bitter foe of monopo-
lies (; Hatch has voted for a monopo-
list for speaker every time an opportu-
nifty has been presented (and Hatch
himself admits that Sam Randall is a
friend of the monopolist.)
Glover was never directly or indi-
rectly concerned in any congressional
SALARY "grabber" for speaker, thereby
endorsing the grab
The above are few of the reasons
which have prompted US to nail to our
masthead the name of John M. Glover
and although every greenbacker Is at
liberty to vote as he pleases, yet We
sincerely bope that not a solitary green
back vote in this county will be given

A Good Editor.

Annie Wakeman Perhaps you think
don't know what constitutes an excel.
lent editor. But l can give you an
idea. He has as unerring a scent for
good news as honey-bee has for
sweet clover, and, like the bee, can
discriminate between new and old
blossoms, and knows where the real
news is extracted. He must have
served in all departments otnewspaper-
ing. as reporter, correspondent, leader
writer, paragraphist, critic and ex-
change reader. The right lobe of his
brain must be conciliatory and full of
tact, and his left lobe aggressive. He
must get instantly to the core Of the
subject like an apple-corer. His style
must be terse and versatile, and ought
to be unique. He must not only be
industrious, bu, know how to incite la
DOR. He must be condenser and a
generalizer. He must be plausible as
well as logical, and he must be an en-
cyclopedia, and always with "Mr. To-
Morrow's" horse and buggy in the
stable ready harnessed.

TRULY WONDERFUL.

According to Governor Crittenden,
the democracy IN addition to being
the cause Of good crops, seasonable
weather and general prosperity, it has
also through and by his wise manage
menr, captured or annihilated the ban
dltti, Gagged the Brookfeld bank rob-
bers, and restored the credit of the
state. All this, and more, too, in ad-
dition to having put down the rebellion
restored the government, and abolish
ed slavery. On the other hand repub-
licanism is the 6ete noir of all that is
good and great 1t caused the REBEL
ion, got the government in debt, it
produced the Jesse Jameses, it IS re-
sponslble for drouths, frosts, panlcs,
cyclones, murrain plague, yellow fever
and small pox. While the governor
did not accuse it of rendering recep-
tions to bloody handed thieves and
cut throats, we do not see why he
should not have done SO. Altogether.
such logic and such argument is
gether wonderful. In fact it is over
powering and conclusive. So we are
informed by those unfortunate republic
cans who were wedged liz the front
part of the house on Tuesday and
couldn't get out till the governor con-
cluded his surprising statements

Value Of tho Supnower.

The sunAower is worshiped by the
Chinese. and deserves the devotion ol
that materialistic people from the fac,
that it is the most useful of all vegeta.
bles. From Its seed is made oil unsur.
passed as a lubricant, and soap un.
equaled for sottening the skin. Sun.
flower oil is greatly used for adulterating
salad oil, and it burns longer than any
other vegetable oil.
SunfloSer cake is more fattening
than linseed cake, its flowers supply
the best bee food. and its leaves are
much used for adulterating tobacco.
Its stalk yields a fine fiber used IN
Chinese silk, and the best yellow dyes
ofthe Chinese are produced from its
flowers. Several acres are to be laid
down with sunAowers in the Thames
Valley next year.-Lioe Stock Journal
