ROMANCE OF A HOSPITAL.
A New York Society Girl Who Served
ms Nurse Met Her Fate in the
Sick Room.

Prof. W. N. Daniels, of Princeton uni
versity, was taken to the Presbyterian
hospital in New York. For weeks he
battled with death, fighting for life as
only brave, strong man can fight.
Through it all he was cheered and
helped by the beautiful woman dressed
in the simple gown of blue and white
linen, with dainty white cap on her
dark hair.
Her patience never failed, her zeal
never tagged. At last the fight was
won. HE will soon get well now," the
doctors said as they looked at him. Il
owe it all to her. the professor said,
feebly, with grateful glance at his
nurse. She smiled at his words Of
praise. He was her patient-that was
all. Because she loved her work she
had watched over him with anxious
care and ministered to his every want.
Once to the outside world she had
been known as Miss Joan Robertson,
one of the prettiest girls in Monville,
Conn. There had been merry times
parties and fun and sweethearts a
plenty in those days. But she had will
lingly given them all up that she might
comfort the sick and suffering-ex-
changed the soft music of the ballroom
for hospital ward, where she listened
to notes of anguish. Now she was only
known as "Nurse,' even to Prof. DAN
iels. That she was beautiful even In
her prim garb of hospital nurse, was
undeniable. She was tall, slender,
graceful, with great dark eyes full Of
pity and tenderness; soft, waving
brown hair and completion as fair
e 3 lily. But Il was not the beauty Of
her face and form that Prof. Danicla
saw. In the hours when he stood upon
the dim borderland OF the unknown,
when human sight grows very clear,
be had looked deeper still.
RecenHy there was pretty home

Connecticut Miss Joan Robertson lssd

nurse and put on white satin gown,

PLATFORM.
Believing it to be to the interest
of the people that they should
have in advance the principles to
be followed in the government of
our city by the democratic ticket
to be voted on at the election to
be held on Tuesday, the 4th day
of April. 1899, we set forth the fol-
lowing platform as embodying the
leading feature of democratic prin-
ciples as adapted to local condi.
tions.
/. Believing economy to be the
necessary feature Of good govern
ment, we advocate scrupulous
prudence in all expenditures of the
city revenues; careful avoidance of
unnecessary Indebtedness; quart
erly publication of a statement of
receipts and disbursements OF city
finances.
2. We advocate securing perfect
titles to our town lots on the most
favorable terms possible.
8. We are in favor of the estab.
lishment, at the earliest possible
time, of uniform system of tax
alton on the personal property and
improvements within the incorpor-
ate limits, which will bear on rich
and poor alike; we recognize that
the present occupation taxes,
though the best possible under the
circumstances, are unequal, and |
bear heavily on the few and not at !
all on the many.
A. Recognizing the broad fact
that public schools and proper
education are the mainstay and
bulwark of our liberties and of our
government, the cause and source
of the unparalleled prosperity and
wonderful progress Of our nation,
We heartily indorse the free school
system, and pledge ourselves to
establish schools for the children
of our city, and to levy reason
able tax on the assessment valua-
tion of property within the incor-
porate limits to maintain them in
proper condition; previous to this
time other possible legislation was
in view, but now we are under the
Curtis law and shall endeavor to
carry out its intents and purposes,
as to schools the fullest extent.
5. We favor the enforcement of
existing laws, and the passage Of
such others as may be necessary
to secure a sanitary condition of
our town; make it clean and at
tractiver and to remove and pre-
vent as far as possible the causes
of epidemic diseases.
6. We pledge ourselves to all
needful improvements of our
streets and bridges, and to maintain
them in good condition; to use
with due discretion the labor which ,
The law requires to be done On
hem; and to keep any and all 9TH /,

sylvester B. Morris, one of the bes.
known residents of President township,
Venango county, and well and most fa-
vorably known in this section of Forest
county, died suddenly at 4:30 o'clock on
Friday afternoon last. Up to he hour of
his death he seemed to be enjoying the
very best of health. He walked to Presi-
dent in the forenoon and after dinner
drove to Eagle Rock. When he returned
home he complained of feeling pain in
his side and laid down, dying in less
than half IAN hour, presumably of heart
disease
AS the Oil City Derrick says, Mr.. Nor
ris will be missed more than any one
man that President township has lost, by
death since the taking away Of the late f.
E.Clapp two years ago. The deceased took
great interest in all the affairs of the
township and after the death of Mr..
Clapp nearly all of the work, financially,
that had been performed by the latter
fell to the lot of Mr.. Morris. lie was a
diligent reader and man of advanced
thoughts, good citizen and one who was
respected for his worth and loved for his
gentle heart. He is survived by family
consisting of his wife, one son and four
daughters, who will greatly mourn their
loss in his death as the family life was an
exceptionally happy one.

Train Kills Two Persons.

The family of Mrs. ISABELLA Reck of this
place received intelligence yesterday
morning of a frightful accident by
which Isaac Reck, brother of the late
Judge Reck, and his daughter, Mrs. Jane
Culp of Alliance, Ohio, were instantly
killed at grade crossing of the Fort
Wayne railroad in that city on Monday
morning. Mr.. Reck and his daughter
were riding in buggy at the time and
had just seen train pass, when they had
evidently attempted to drive across the
double tracks not noticing that another
train was laundering along in the oppos-
ite direction on the other track. The
bodies of both persons were literally torn
to pieces, so that one could not be distin-
guished from the other. Mr.. Reck was
aged about 70 years.

JAMES A. SCOTT, ESQ.

James Andrew Scott, was born in the
city of Baltimore, Nd, July l5, 1915, and
died at his home, two and half miles
east of Marienvile, jerks township,
June l, 1899, being thus aged 50 years,
10 months and l6 days.
The subject of this sketch is so well
and favorably known to large portion
of the people of Forest county that this
simple announcement would seem al
most sufficient, but his long, upright and
honorable career as citizen of this sec
ton deserves more than passing notice.
Mr.. Scotts early bOyhood days were
passed in his native city, the family
moving to Philadelphia when he was yet
quite young. He grew to manhood in
that city, and in lS45 was Joined in mar
riage with Miss Anna Clarissa Boyle, but
within one year was left to mourn the
loss of loving wife, In lS49 he married
Miss Elizabeth Ann Hines. This union
was blessed with the birth OF two sons
and three daughters, all of whom survive,
as follows: Harry H., Mrs. G.. D. El
bridge, George L.. Mrs. J. E. Gaul, and
Mrs. W. A. VanGesen. In 1855 Mr..
Scott and family emigrated to Forest
county, and settled near Marienville as
above stated, where he continued to re-
side until his death. In middle life he
was baptised by immersion in Salmon
creek, by the Rev. S. P. Barr, and united
with the Baptist church. In early life
Mr.. Scott joined the order Sous OF Tenn
perance, and was a total abstainer all his
loug life, not only from strong drink, but
from tobacco as well.
Mr.. Scott was a great reader and kept
thoroughly posted on the current events
of the day. being II man of more than av-
erage intelligence. He was frequently
hOnored by bis fellow citizens in local af-
fairs affecting his township, having held
many of the offices, for many years being
justice of the peace. But we of this end
knew him best as the faithful Court Crier
of our courts for nearly 40 years, contin-
uously, with exception OF short time
when he was elected county auditor,
which position he held for three years,
when he was again appointed crier and
served till sickness compelled him to re-
lenquish the work. He was a man of
wonderful vitality and energy, and after
almost his last visit to Tionesta, when
nearly 81 years of age, he walked to his
home, "a miles in one day.
During his last illness he suffered great
ly from kidney trouble for six months,
but in it all he bore up with patience and
Christian fortitude, till last Thursday,
when he was released from pain and suf-
fering to enter into eternal rest. The flu
neral took place on Saturday afternoon
last, conducted by Rev. II. f. Earsman
in the Presbyterian church at Marien-
vile, and the remains were inferred by
the side of his wife, who preceded him in
death nearly seven years.
