One of the attractive features of
the late temperance campaign was the
excellent music furnished by Prof.
Henry Weaver, who for three nights
entertained the audience with his
charming music. Truly he carried
Tionesta captive TO his strains. He is
not "a fiddler" in the common accepta-
tion of the word, but a true violinist--
a genuine "knight of the bow" Come
again, Professor.
Think of one COW giving nine
and one-half tons of milk in a year.
That's the feat performed in the past
year by the imported Holstein cow
Violet, belonging to Edgar Huideko-
per, of MeadVille. From March "a,
1888, to March %, 1884, inclusive,
her total yield was 18,6772 pounds,
an average of 51.03 pounds a day
The record is sworn to by those who
did the milking and by others

Mr.. j. Y. Saul, whose serious ILL
ness we mentioned last week, died last
night at eleven o'clock. Some three
years ago he received n severe para.
lytic stroke, from which he only parti.
ally recovered. He was able only to
do light work occasionally in the
garden. Mr.. Saul came to Tionesta
from Philadelphia about the year
1865, and for some years followed his
trade of harness making at which he
had few equals. He was always jovi-
al in conversation and we'll thought of
by our citizens, and the family he
leaves, a wife and four children, have
the sympathy of all. He also leaves
a grown son by his first wife, who has
always lived in Philadelphia, and who
we learn is quite well.to-do. Mr.
Saul, We judge was about 55 years old.
