Some men contribute according to
their means and Others according to their

File your order with Amsler for all
varieties of fruit, and do it quickly ifyou
wish the best. The seasons fast waning.
The building up of business by ad-
vertising depends just as much upon the
way new customers are treated as it does
upon inducing them to come for the first
time.-Er.

"A large number of barges from both
tho Lawrence & Smearbaugh yards at
Hickory, and the Collins Il Co. yards at
Nebraska, are anchored near the river
bridge awaiting sufficient rise in the
river to float them to Pittsburg.
--Amsler has the best in fruits like
wise in the canned goods, grocery, cigar
and tobacco line, and with stock of con-
fectionery always in to which no others
are to be compared. Prompt attention
to customers who call in person or by
phone. 1t.
The cunning season opens on the
18th inst. for a 60-day seige. Squirrels
are almost an unknown quantity in this
section. Pheasants are fairly plentiful,
while rabbits are, as usual, a pest, though
the season for their lawful slaughter does
not open till Nov. lst.

dreary;

health underwear, and all seasonable
goods at reasonable prices. 1t
AT the closing session of the Free
Methodist Conference held at New Castle
it was decided to hold the Oil City Con-
ference at Oil City next year and the
Pittsburg Conference at Apollo. The re-
port of the Committee on Reforms de-
nounces secret societies, intemperance,
Sunday desecration, gambling and pride,
particularly as the latter is manifest
ed in the wearing of mustaches.-Btz-

Another new industry for Tionesta.
Merchant f. r. Lanson has the founda-
ton we'll under way for the erection of a
grist mill, on Bridge street, just below
the Brennan building. The new struc-
ture will be 35x46 in size, and fitted out
with the latest appliances for turning out
all kinds of feed and meal. There is no
question about the new enterprise being
a success from the start as it should be.
Repairs to the river bridge are being
made, the work having been commenced
last week. Every span is being very ma
terially strengthened, and when conf
pleted the bridge will be practically as
good as new. The short span at the east
end is to be replaced by new super
structure entire, which will be sub
stantial one. This work has long been
needed as the bridge was actually in an
unsafe state.
Reports to the effect that wild pigeons
are gathering in this section are frequent
ly heard, and some of them from reliable
sources. The crop of beechnuts is said
to be immense this year-greater than fol

ance of pigeons in this county-and il
would not be surprising if this fall should
see large body of these fine game birds
back in this section, although they are
said to be, like the boffalo of the plains
practically extinct.
The town was full of music Saturday
evening as the result of treat from
Landlords Weaver of Hotel Agnew, anC
Horner of the Central House. Yves
Hickory's excellent junior cornet banc
discoursed some very fine pieces from
the balcony of Hotel Agnew, and had
fine audience. A Tidioute orchestri

strains from stringed instruments at tn
Central House parlors, and on the whol'
