commendsble one, and we'd like to
see more follow the Doctors example.
William Jones, who resided at
Beaver Valley, and was we'll known
to many of our readers, died at his
home on Tuesday evening 10th inst,
of diabetes. He was married and
leaves a wife and one small child.
His age was about % years, and he
was a son of Boyd M. Jones of Green
township.
Mr.. w. r. Dunn came back last
Saturday and took new start for the
west on Monday. When he got to
Meadville he was intercepted by a
telegram which somewhat changed his
plans and he Eow expects to locate in
Nebraska. We hope soon to receive
new and sparkling western paper
with his name at the head.
We find the following seasouable
advice going the rounds of our ex-
changes: "Never go where you are
not wanted. If man wants you to
go to his room be will invite you to
do so, and if a merchant wants you to
visit his place of business he will in
vite you through the columns Of your
local paper. 1t is wrong to intrude
upon privacy; don't do it."
"A receiver has been appointed
for the B. N. Y. & p. r. R., in the
person of G. Clinton Gardner, whose
Office is at Buffalo. This step has
been taken with view to placing
the obligations of the company within
its earning capacity. The road has
been making splendid progress, the
net earnings for the quarter ended
March 31st, having increased about

AS will be seen by reference to
the Court Proceedings elsewhere pub.
lished, the jury in the forgery case
against L. G. Conroe returned verdict
of guilty. The case elected great in.
terest on the part of our citizens, the
court room during its progress being
filled. The Court made Mr.. Couroe's
sentence as light as possible under the
law, one year and four months, which
fact is a qualification to a large per.
centage of the citizens Of the commu.
nifty whose sympathies are with him
in his misfortune.
"A careful reading of the new
law requiring the teaching of temper
ance in the public schools of This
State leads US to the conclusion that
If the law is to be enforced strictly, it
calls for something decidedly out of
the usual course. The law says that
the new study "shall be introduced
and studied as regular branch by
all pupils in all departments of the
public schools of the Common wealth."
thus necessitating a seriees Of text
books for each grade, the six.year.old
pupil being obliged TO take a regular
course of physiology as we'll as the
pupil Of the High School. The claim
of the opponents of the bill that it
was big textbook job would seem
to have some foundation in the light
of these facts. Good common sense,
however, will probably be allowed to
govern, and the new study will be
given its place in graded school cOurs-

The Clarion JacksOnian gives the
following account of most fendish

years, induced her, on some pretext,
to enter their fathers barn, where
they criminally assaulted her. After
both the big brutes had outraged her
they allowed the the little baby girl
to drag herself home, more dead than
alive. She told the horrid story of
the crime, and was taken to Brook.
