How many times does it happen tina

1t is said that an Ohio preacher ha:
invented new kind of collection box
for church use, into which dollar. hall
dollar or a quarter will fall without
making any noise, on padded cushion
a nickel, however, rings bell, while a
penny or trouser button fires off a gun,
arousing the attention of the entire con-
gregation to the embarrassment of the
economical giver.
1t is wonderful what large number
of fall and winter hats F. Walters & Co.
have turned out this season, and still the
orders are coming in as fast as they can
be filled. The reason is obvious-the
best goods at prices lower than elsewhere.
Don't fail TO call on them, ! ot alone to
see their elegant hats, but to inspect their
stock of ladies' furnishings, fancy goods
and infants wear. 1t

surance agency of J. II. Mitchell & Co.

member of the firm.-Another new
law firm in Warren is Shawkey & Mum,

BY a recent ruling of the Internal
Revenue Department, tobacco dealers
who were compelled TO pay for extra
| stamps on account of having had in their
possession goods bearing the fraudulent
Jacobs stamps, will be reimbursed the
several amounts paid by them. The rul-
ing seems to be just one as there was
no intentional fraud on the part of the
dealers and it hardly would be just to
make them pay twice for the stamps.
e. 7. Hall, the progressive house.
furnisher of Titusville, Pa, whose double
column ad. is familiar to the readers of
the REPUBLICAN, is making very exten-

ded, a new asphalt roof put on and the

in the field and twelve others very sick.
Duiing the night break occurred in the
Producers pipe line which crosses the
field in which the cattle were pastured,

There were more wells completed in
the Pennsylvania oil fields in October
than during any previous month in the
history of the oil industry. The record
for new production, however, is held by
October, 1891, when the Mcdonald field
was at the zenith of its phenominal ca
reer. The activity in field operations
likewise continues, and there is no nook
nor corner of the known oil territory
that is escaping tho producer in his
search after Sl.56 oil.-Derrick.
Jacob Wagner of the township. fell
down the cellar way at his home on
Thusday last and was quite seriously
hurt. He struck his head on the hard
cement floor rendering him insensible
for several hours. When he regained
consciousness it was found his left side
was badly bruised, his left wrist serious
ly sprained and his face badly cut up.
At last accounts he was able to be about
somewhat, but it will take him some
time to get entirely over the severe shak-
ing up.
The stock of goods for Jas. ID. Davis
new drug store, corner Elm and Bridge
streets, has arrived and is being put in
place as rapidly as possible and as the
work progresses the store assumes very
handsome appearance, and when COM
pletsd there will not be a more neat or
up-to-date pharmacy to be found with n
radius of many miles. One leading
feature is the fact that everything in the
store is bran new and fresh from the
wholesalers-not only the cases and bot
ties, but their contents.
"A Bradford hunter encountered a
pheasant flying directly toward him, and
forgot that he had a gun, which he drop
