Death of Mrs. Hepier.

Mrs. Moses Heplef, nee Mary Byers,
was born in Armstrong county, Pa, April
3, 1915, and died at the home of her son,
Moses Hepler, in Tionesta, Monday
morning, Jan. l6, 1899, Of intirmities of
old age, which possibly were fastened
in elimination by her being an invalid
for over eight years.
Being helpless inyalid so many years,
shut i'm from the world, and suffering as
only an aged invilid can suffer, death to
her must have been welcome release.
Our deepest sympathies are aroused at
the thought of such an one and how
must the great loving heart of our Master
and Saviour, who suffered 'many things"
for us, and who is touched with the
feeling of our infirmities," be touched in
sympathy and pity for such; and that
being true of the mortal, how much more
is it true of the immortal.
Deceased was the mother of nine child
rem, seven of whom survive her, and
who have the sympathy of large circle
of friends. The survivors are Mrs. f.
Stitzinger of Tionesta twp, Mrs. j.
Swartzlager of Elk Co., Mrs. A. Kinch,
Mrs. Geo. Sligo OF Lickingville, Pa, Sol
omon of Washington, Moses of this place,
and Isaac of Newmansville, Pa. Her
husband died in 1882. Funeral services
will be held at Newmansville this after
noon in the Washington church.

East Hickory.

The Local Institute at East Hickory
the programs for which were printed at
this office. held there on last Saturday
WAS quite successful. Owing to the very
bad weather prevailing the attendance
was not so good as it would otherwise
have been. Some good papers were read
and some of the discussions were quite
spirited. The next one will be held in
four weeks.
Halle Baugher, grand d-daughter of Mrs
Bloomfield, re-iding at Trunkeyville
narrowly escaped drowning there one
day last week. She fell from a skiff while
crossing the river. She was sitting on q
board when a cake of ice struck the boat
and caused the accident. When take
from the water and carried to the hous,
she was unconscious, but soon recovered
and in little while seemed none IT,;
worse for her adventure.
Considerable ice ofquite good quality
and thickness has been harvested in the
past week and previously from Bow
mans pond. Some of it was hauled
across to West Hickory.
There has been considerable sickness
in and about this community recently
bad colds and on up by easy stages t.
real grippe Everybody, however, seems
to be getting better.
BY the way, il a better school of the
same grade can be found anywhere about
than the one at East Hickory we'd like
to know aud extend congratulations.
We're proud. So there.

Boy Accidentally Shoots Himsllf.

Harley Lease, the l3-year-old son OF
Vim. Lease, of Golinza, Pa, met with a
very serious cunning accident, while out
hunting with number of other boys
last Saturday afternoon. The lad had a
double barrel, breech-lOading shot gun,
and at the time ofthe accident w0s stand
ing on log. In some manner lie slipped
and in falling the hammers of the gun
caught and one of the barrels was dis
charged, the contents taking effect in the
boys left arm and side. His compan-
ions succeeded in getting the injured boy
home, distance of mile or so, and DR..
Bowman was summoned. He found the
muscles of the forearm entirely blown
away, and a large number oil pellets
of the BIB size had embedded themselves
in the boys side, a number having gone
almost through and were cut out of the
top of his shoulder. The lad seems 10 be
doing very well under the circumstances
and will get well, though his escape from
death borders almost on the miraculous.

the voters at the election in November
last. aud in doing so have made what near
ly everyone who has expressed an opin-
ion on it calls wise selection The site
will be on the hanks overlooking the
beautiful Allegheny river, four miles
north of the county seat, the S j. Wolcott
and John Walters farms having been Sc
cured. This plot of ground covers one
hundred and fifty acres, about eighty of
which are under good state of cultiva-
tiOn. aud nearly half of the balance of the
land is of such character as can he
easily made tillable. Each of the proper
ties contains large and substantial barn
and fairly good dwellings. The ground
lies high and dry, with an abundance Of
fine running water for all domestic pur-
poses, and an excellent opportunity to
secure an ample supply for fire protec-
ton from neighboring springs. The nat
ural drainage advantages are perfect, and
all told it is an ideal location for an insti-
tuition of this character We doubt
whether its equal could be found in the
State, all things considered
The cost of the property is s.. 900, which
good judges claim is a very fair and rea-
sonable figure. The Commissioners are
now considering plans and specifications
for the building, having had submitted
to them perspective views by Architect
Robinson, of Altoona, Pa. These are
very handsome in design and Of modern
style in point of heating ventilating, fire.
proof qualities, etc. AS to the adoption
of these plans, the Board, we believe, has
not decided, but will look farther before
making choice. 1t is the intention to
have all matters in readiness to begin
active work on the bundings as soon as
settled weather comes.
