The REPUBLICAN sincerely sympa-
thzes with Mr.. and Mrs. Edward K!ab-
batz, of Byromtown, jerks township, in
the loss of their bright little five-yoar-old
boy, whose death occurred on the 18th
inst, after painful illness lasting nearly
lS months.
Mr. and Mrs. J. p. Huling of Pleasant
vile. visited Mr.. and Mrs. James Huling
during the week. Jared has had severe
tussle with the grip, and was still showing
the effects of the monster, but has about
got the upper hold of the critter and pro-
poses to keep It,
DIR. Morrow received supply of
fresh vaccine virus the other day for a
special purpose, and while there is no
smallpox about, nor suspicion of any, he
is willing TO use up his surplus stock on
any who would like to be vaccinated.
First come first served.
-Base ball again. A meeting was held
last evening and new organization
effected with Geo. Holeman as manager,
and j. w. Kepler, captain. The boys
intend to make this the best season yet,
and will begin active work soon as the
weather and grounds are fit.
The Odd Fellows Lodge of this place
will give banquet at the Hall next Tues
day evening. Grand Master Ed. Marsh
will be present, and as usual with this
Lodge nothing will he omitted that will
tend to make the occasion both pleasant
and profitable one to the fraternity.
Wonder if we have any such fellows
in this community 1.-THE fellow who loafs
around all the streets all day and goes
home to a wife, mother or sister who
works hard to support him, can tell you
exactly what this country needs to make
it prosperous, and what policy a newspa-
per ought to pursue to make it a glorious
success"
-Tionesta townships will build two
new school houses this summer, one on
Judge Proper and Ferd. Wenk, and one
near Hunter Station, the latter to replace
the old one which is about gone to decay.
Bills announcing that sealed proposals for
the erection of these will be out this week,
giving specifications.
Some of our down the-river exchanges
seem to be frightened at the possibility of
a big flood when the heavy snow now
lying in the hemlock woods meits. Have
no fear of the water, gentlemen. While
YOU may not be much accustomed to its
use, YOU have our assurance, after soven
or eight years experience, that the change
will not affect you seriously.
A company of enterprising men of
Tionesta have rented the Forest House of
that pace and will establish branch
Kelley Institute, the institution to be
opened March 2lst, with DR.. j. B. Siggins
as chief physician. The Doctor is at pres
ent at Dwight, Illinois, receiving the in
structions from the inventor of the BIZ
chloride of gold cure for drunkenness.
Tionesta is on the list of wide-awake G
towns. - Clarion Jdckson'dn.
| The following from the Meadvillc
Tribune applies to every town in the
country: occasionally IA load of furni-
ture is seen passing along the streets,
horalds of the approaching annual moving
day. How much more pleasant it would
be all around il moving day came month
later. About the only argument in favor
of April list, is that 1t gives people who
move an opportunity to make little
early garden, for which May is really
sufficiently early"
Attention is directed to the ad. in this
issue of Il. c. Heath, Starr, Pa, who is
again prepared TO interview all in need oI
anything in the line of agricultural ma
chinery. Mr.. Heath supplied large
number of machines TO the farmers in his
district last year, and in not single in
stance did he have a word of complaint
from his customers. lie is prepared to
give the same satisfaction this season, as
he handles only the best and most ap-
proved articles, and solicits the patronage
of all who are contemplating a purchase
A resident of Tionesta and an old
riverman was in Oil City Sunday, and
expressed the opinion TO the Derrick thai
there was u prospect of the river being
higher there this spring than it had beer
since the memorable flood of 1865. HI
based his opinion OH the fact that from
Tionesta to Kane the snow was from 20 tC
25 inches deep on the level and that {
sudden change to warm weather would
melt this vast bulk of snow and start the
creeks and rivers booming. He said i
was Il similar state of affairs that caused
the 1865 flood.
-Messrs. Scowden & Clark were neve
better prepared to meet the Spring trade
in all kinds OF wheeled vehicles than they
are now. A dozen or fifteen handsome
new wagons are all set up ready to b,
hitched to, n number of which have al
ready been sold and only await the break
} ing up of winter to be brought into use
They have nearly as many buggies anC
} buck boards in various stages of compile
tion, also, and can fit out customer oil
the shortest notice. OF the material
workmanship and general get up of thes
goods it is unnecessary to speak, as thi
firm has established a reputation for homes
work that speaks louder than words
They invite an inspection by all who con
template a purchase.
