Death of John F. Brown.

John f. Brown died at mis- home in
Mifflinvllle last Saturday evening of
heart failure. He has been an in
valid for about two years. Mr.. Brown
was born in Mifflin township in 1896,
making him at the time of his death
63 years of age. During his life he
was engaged at farming and milling.
In 1862 he entered the United States
army, was sergeant in Company A
of the I73d regiment, and served for
ten months. After returning home he
rented the Brown mill, near his nome,
and conducted the business for several
years. Later he was engaged at
farming, following it until compelled
to retire by reason of failing health.
Early in life he connected himself
with the Methodist faith and was a
devout member of that church. The
deceased was brother of James &.
and S. c. Brown, of this town.

Ditto in Pennsylvania.

The following is from the st. Louis
GIo6e Democrat. 1t is the exact sit
uation here IN our own state.
Missouri, once so rich in game and
fish, is losing ground steadily in these
important resources. This would not
happen if proper attention were given
to the subject. 1t is not the intelli-
gent use OF the gifts of nature that
leads to their decay and extinction.
Nothing but sheer waste and neglect
could ever deprive the people of their
bounty. Even quail and common
kinds of fish are becoming scarce in
many sections of Missouri. The sub
ject is one demanding vigorous and
liberal legislation. Fish and game
supervision ought to be looked after
Immediately and allowed something
more than pittance to starve to
death upon. 1t is in truth a pitfu
sight when a legislature devotes its
time to trivial politics and does moth
ing to preserve natural blessings that
with suitable care can be made per
petual.

A Very Pleasant Gathering of Friends.

Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Brobst Of
Frosty Valley near Danvllle gave an
evening party to a number OF their
friends on the 20 inst. Those present
were Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob Mari, Mr..
and Mrs. John Johnson, Mr.. and Mrs.
VIM. Moore, Mr. and Mrs Link White,
Mr.. and Mrs. Art Pursel, Mr.. and
Mrs. Elmer Sidler, Mr.. Samuel Pursel,
Mr.. VIM. Hartman, Mrs. Sarah Moore,
Miss Maud Pursel, Mrs. Sophia Shan
on, Miss Mary Beagle and Mr. Bret
Harris. In their most comfortable and
commodlous home there was room for
all and to spare, the refreshments were
fine and all enjoyed the music through
out the evening, especially the play
ing and songs by Miss Sophia Shan
non, the successful teacher of the
Stroup school who did justice to her
self and the beautiful instrument pur-
chased recently Of Messrs Bloom and
Fry of Danvllle by Mr.. Brobst as a
gift to his wife. All spent delightful
evening. ANON.

1t Is Different Now.

No one is better able to note the
great difference in the change of Gus
toms and practice than the country
editor, especially on the subject fol-
lowing. UP until within few years
ago it was quite popular custom on
the occasion of weddings to remem-
Der the editor and his retinue of as
sistants with reminders Of the lunch
con or feast. No matter how gay
and festive the occasion, or how hum
bic the contracting parties, the printer
was never overlooked or forgotten,
and in return he invariably threw at
the happy couple his richest blessings
and best wishes, often couched in the
choicest saxon. At that time young
couple, about to embark on the mat
rimonial sea, would no more think of
overlooking the editor than the miu-
lister. Often at holiday time, we can
remember, when presiding over a
rusty old type case, the printing Office
would be swamped with fine culinary
souvenirs of the nuptial feast, and
would resemble more bakery than a
place devoted exclusively to enlight-
ening small portion of the world.
But now the editor eats his cake al
holiday time, if his means will allow
him to eat cake at all, in the seclu-
| sion of hic humble home while the
merry wedding bells ring in his ear
something of hollow mockery, too
as he reverts to the past, reminding
him of days past, never to return
when wedding bells had more pro
phetic sound, and frosted cake wa'
served with lavish hand to all in the
office, even the DEVIL" from the bee
of the old Campbell press.

Clean Your Premises.

The time of the year is about here
when everyone should commence
cleaning their premises ofthe accumu-
lation of the winters ashes, rubbish,
etc, so as TO give them neat appear
ance and put them in healthy con-
dition. Lime should be freely used, SO
as to make thorough disinfectlon OF
the entire premises. The backyard
and lot should not only receive special
attention but, the street in front OF
the dwelling should be given attention.
If every housekeeper would keep the
street clean in front of their residence
our town would present a more tidy
appearance than it generally does. 1t
would require very little effort on the
part of each one to accomplish this
much desired result.

No Travelling Speak Easies.

1t has been generally understood
that it is illegal for liquor dealer hav-
ing a wholesale license to peddle or
deliver liquor to customers out side his
own county only by common carrier,
but there is no positive prohibition by
law. To overcome this defect bill
has been introduced in the Legislature,
as an amendment to the general liquor
law, by Assemblyman Thomas B.
Craig, of Carbon, and the same is like
ly to be adopted. Wholesale liquor
dealers who ship their goods by freight
for instance, are not to be interfered
with, but travelling grog shops are to
be abolished.

been given IN our town for many
