Thrifty TiOnesta.

The editor Of the Warren Mail,
was here recently and this is how he
was impressed with appearances here.
abouis. 1t should be remarked right
here that Editor Cowan is wide awake
and knows a good thing on sight;
Our neighboriDg county.seat, Tio-
nesta, seems to be on the highway Of
prosperity. A Mail man saw many
evidences of comfort, thrift and pros.
perity in a short visit there recently.
New water works have lately been
put in, furnishing large supply of
cold spring water, and connections
with the street mains are now being
added by AmaDn & Schellhammer,
through that experienced plumber,
Ferd M. Lesser, of Warren. Many
Of the residents are fitting their
houses and places Of business with
water pipes, and private sewers are
being laid, but public sewer will be
put in the main street next spring,
thus adding much to the health of the
town. With an abundance Of cheap
gas, pure water, and pleasant, health.

es, Tionesta is a superior place, to
live in and seems to be prosperous in
a business way.
Tionesta is fortunate in having two
good weekly newspapers in the RE.
PUBLICAN, and Vindicator which pub
lish the local and general news in a
very creditable manner. And is also
fortunate in possessing two wide
awake and progressive hotel men who
take pleasure in caring for the travel
er, and are we'll known to Warren
people. We allude to Mr.. L. Agnew
of the Lawrence House, who is refit
ting and refurnishing this old and
popular hotel and will soon change
its name to Hotel Agnew, which il
more appropriate. Last, but not
least in size, is Landlord o. c. Brow.

Burglars in MarienVille.

The Express gives the following ac-
count of bold robbery which occurred
in Marienville last week:
Wednesday morning between one and
two o'clock five masked burglars broke
into Paltrovitch's jewelry store and were
preparing to make clean sweep when
frightened away. J. p. Guth sleeps in
the store, but on this occasion, in compa-
ny with Peter Kiser was out "among
Them" The boys were returning home
when a masked man met them at Am
sler's store and presenting revolver or
dered them to stop. Oh no. Peter took
down Cherry street like the wind, and
still insists that he was followed TO the
watering trough, where he distanced his
persuer. Guth made a break for the
store, but was intercepted by another
masked man who threw him down and
holding a revolver to his face threatened
to shoot if he made any noise. But the
fear of death did not prevent Guth from
using his lungs, and to quiet him one of
the robbers struck him on the head with
a revolver, cutting quite cash. By this
time the people near by began to stir,
and the robbers left by the Byromtown
road. An examination of the store
showed that the robbers had taken all
the jewelry left out of the safe, several
hundred dollars worth, and had drilled
through the top of the safe and had the
powder and fuse inserted all ready to
blow it open. Had they succeeded
they would have made good
haul. The members of the gang are ev-
identity professionals as they made good
job on the safe. A lady who lives above
the store says they had not been at work
more than fifteen minutes. She was
awake but too badly frightened to give
| an alarm,

Every department of the school
seems to be progressing nicely. The
attendance for the present month,
which ends Friday, shows that the
school is fuller than it has ever been
before the number tardy was never
less, and the interest manifested by
the pupils in their work is very graft
ing to the teachers. One new fea.
ture, which proves to be a very in.
teresting one, is our chapel exercises
held in the hall from 8 to 9:25 a. m.
After devotional exercises we have
our rhetorical exercises, thus dispen.
sing with the Friday afternoon per.
formances as of preceding years.
Patrons of the school are invited
to attend these opening exercises as
well as the other exercises of the
school.
Our monthly examinations will be
held this week.
We hope to report no failures in
our next letter.
Edgar Corah of Room No. 4, has
been suffering the past week with q
felon.
The Hall is nearly in readiness for
the entertainment to be given by the
Talent of the Town." Friday night,
Dec. l. The play, "Out in the
Streets" is one Of the standard pieces
of the day and if the success of the
rehearsels portend anything the
young people deserve to be greeted
with a full house.
Harry Sbawkey was down from
Warren last Monday and while in

Railway booking Clerks.

Railway clerks have to pass an exami-
nation and appear before the board of di.
rectors before they receive an appointment.
certificate of birth and testimonials as to
character are also required. They are then
registered, and WILL have to wait until a
vacancy occurs, which may be either in the
goods or passenger department, and at any
station along the line. The work of the
clerical staff in the goods department is
very similar to that in merchants office
There will be a chief clerk, perhaps a
cashier, and invoice, abstract and ledger
clerks. Their hours are regular, and they
are steadier lot of men than their con
freres in the passenger department, and as
a rule they get married sooner
The two branches are rather inclined to
hold aloof from one another They seldom
frequent the same haunts, and their tastes
seem to differ in the matter of endowment
The clerical staff in the passenger DEPART
ment consists of booking and parcel clerks,
but except at large stations, the latter
have to take their turn in booking. so can
be classed under the same head.-Cham.
