She's graduate from college, a compsn.
dium of knowledge,
With the spirit of the hour and age she's
everywhere in touch;
But if without warning
The cook leaves in tho morning
In spite of all her learning she will wish
that she were dead,
Till Amsler supplies her with Brundages S
finest bread
The warm spell of weather which set
in Sunday morning after the soaking
rains Of the two previous days has given
vegetation of all kinds wonderful start,
and in the past three days grass, leaves,
etc., have nearly made up for all lost
time during the frosty weather, and the
fears of those who were predicting dire
havoc to all nature are thus dispelled. 1t
all comes out right after all.

Jury Commissioner Peter Youngk
OF Green township was quite severely in
jured by being thrown over the embank-
ment short distance below Nebraska
last Thursday. He was driving down
the road when his horse became fright
ened, backed the rig off the road and
horse and all were carried over the bank,
distance of ten or twelve feet. The rig
was badly smashed but the horse was not
much hurt. Mr.. Youngk was getting
along all right at last accounts.

well-known monumental works of ]. w.
Kerr 4 Son of Oil City, is doing q good

Andrew Small was quite severely
hurt last Monday morning on the Col
lins railroad on Little Coon creek. He
was bringing three car loads of logs down
the grade when the front car jumped the
track. This brought the other cars to-
gether with bang, and Mr.. Small being
in the middle of the train was so severely
as to sustain the fracture of a
couple of his ribs. At last accounts he
was resting quietly at his home in Ne
braska, and his physicians report that he
will get along all right, leaving no per-
injury.
The platform from which lumber is
loaded on the cars at the depot, fell down
last Thursday evening and with it sever
al thousand lath and lot of railroad ties
and lumber went over the river bank. 1t
IS peculiar circumstance that large
of hauling had been done on the
platform that day and there were times
when there were three teams with loaded
wagons and a half dozen men on the
platform at the same time, and still the
,ontraption refused to go down until eve
ming, when no one was near and consid-
'rably less than the usual amount of |
lumber was piled upon il.
The cantata presented at the court |
louse last Friday evening was surly one
If the finest ever given in Tionesta by |
either local or foreign talent. 1t would |
Do useless to attempt TO particularize |
where each individual member of the
shone like a star. The cast |
embraced upward of forty persons, and |
ZACH in Oriental costume, presented |
most striking, unique and handsome
appearance. The choruses, which occur
frequently in the drama, were beautifully |
and always elected a storm of |
Ipplause, whilo the solos and duets were
Exquisite. Mr.. Ritchey and Miss Maude
)enniston. in the title role, were the re-
iplents of many compliments on the re-
Ilistic manners in which they personated
he characters of "Jephthah and his
Daughter" The very inclement weather
proved the only disappointing feature of
he entire affair, but Notwithstanding this
Irawback the audiance was large one,
lot only on Friday evening, but on Sat-
Irday evening as well when the play
vas repeated by request. A handsome
um was netted to the fund bt ing raised
or repairing and refurnishing the Pres
,yterian Sabbath School room.
