In a late number Of vour paper | read
Of the passing OF MIR. Benjamin May, ard
MIR. Zuendel, and my mind reverted

Mills-from 1857 to 1868. How few of the
men that were dong business then are
alive to-day. Henry Dusenbury, VIM.
i. Wheeler, Hamilton STOW, Hunting
don May, A. b. Root. VIM. White, An
drew Dewoody, Mr.. Harrington and Mr..
Purdy, are some of the older men whom
| knew, and remember with pleasure
death was one of my particular friends.
Among the younger persons who have
passed away are Munsel and George
Stow, and VIM. Dusenbury.
On the first day of last December oc-
Cured the Goth anniversary of our we'd

mitted to enter upon the new century in
pretty good health for persons ofour age.
We haye had very mild winter and
March came in with thaw, which con-
tInues. We have had over a month oI

Contrary to all expectations and some
fears. the ice in the river did no damage
last Sunday evening as it broke up and
passed out 1t was surprising to find the
ice no heavier than il was, the general
impression being that 1t was all the way
from Is inches to 2 feet in thickness,
whereas SIX 10 eight inches was the aver
age. 1t was very respectable breakup,
and it is not probable there will be any
further trouble from that source this
season.
Samuel Hawthorne, for upward of 20
years an inmate OF the State Hospital at
North Warren from Forest county, died
at that institution on Thursday last, 9TH
inst. He was for many years a resident
of this section, and when his mind be-
came affected he was placed in the asylum
by the county authorities. He was aged
nearly so years, and when he left here it
was known that his wife and a son and
daughter were living, but the authorities
have not been able to ascertain where any
OF them reside at the present time.
Frank r. Hindman, of the law firm
of Hindman * Hoy, Clarion, Pa, died
Of hemorrhage OF the'lungs on the 9th
inst. Mr.. Hirdman was a prominent
lawyer, having served as district attorney
of Clarion county for six years. lie was
a member Of the Clarion bar since 1876
and was influential in Democratic politics
as well as being a prominent business
man. Ten years.ago he was given the
Democratic endorsement of his county
sons. lie was partner of J. A. F. Hoy,
Assemblyman from that county.
The Grand Jury at Warren Wednes-
day failed to find an indictment against
Geo. c. Priestly, ON the old bribery
cha ges and the prosecutor, Jas. Devine,
mulcted in the costs, Sl5.s2. This matter
had got to be a persecution rather than a
prosecution and it is high time the mat
ter was dropped. iTdioute Noics. 1t is
the second vindication for Mr.. Priestly
from a malicious persecution by the
much ratified insurgent element of his
county. No man who knows George
PTiestly believes him capable of a dis
honorable act, and it is very likely the
voters Of Warren county will put their
condemnatory seal on such petty at
tempts 10 injure the character of good
men, when the primary election takes
place next Saturday in that county.

Dear sir: Lead aud oil is no longer the
paint to be prosperous with.
As everybody knows, lead and oil
chalks or powders off in about three
years-three years Is its limit.
Painters are putting little zinc in
their lead to make it tough-it lasts a
good three years with little zinc.
But painters don't like the job ofmix-
ing zinc. It's tedious job, and, both be-
ing white. nobody knows when the mix
ing is thorough. Itgets half-mixed and
the paint goes on, streak of lead and a
streak of zinc. That is not good work.

STOP COPPER PRODUCTION
FORCES REDUCED AND MINES
CLOSED.
Restriction to Continue Until Sup
ply on the Market Is Ex-
hausted.

St. Paul, Oct. ia special to the
Pioneer Press from Butte, Mont,
says: The Amalgamated Copper
company, F. Augustus Heinze, Sen
ator A. Clark and other big copper
producers have reached an agreement
to restrict copper production. This
fact has been disclosed by repeated
rumors that Heinze had reached a
settlement with his old enemies, the
~Amalgamated people, which he de-
MES. It is stated that the only agree
ment he has made is to curtail his
copper production. in accordance
with which he has reduced the work
ing force in his mines fully one-third.
Several of the best producing mines
of the Amalgamated company are
closed down temporarily and opera
lions in all of it's mines are suspend
ed on Sundays. Restriction is to con-
tinue until the copper supply on the
market is practically exhausted and
the price of the metal will thus be
maintained.

her services were not needed any
longer, and SO she went back to the
beer hall, and she and Angel occupi
ed adjoining rooms. After Black
died the authorities were informed of
the circumstances and Mrs. Black
and Angel were arrested and lodged
in Jail.
About three months ago Black and
belong were poisoned in the same
name on Camp Creek by eating
some ham. Mrs. Black was along at
the time. 1t is a strange fact that
on neither occasion did she become
sick. 1t is believed both times corro-
sive sublimate was used. +.
Angel is a young nan who has been
working for Black this summer and
was thought to be an honorable man.
Mrs. Black married John Black about
a year ago. Her name previous to the
marriage was Fitzpatrick.

two or three years ago she stirred up
quite a lot of trouble in Anaconda
over the alleged abduction Of her

AT MONTICELLO.
St. Louis Club Bea.ing His Name
Journey to Virginia for
the Purpose.

Richmond, Va, Oct. 12-Two hun
son club of st. Louis, Mo-, together
with a great throng of citizens from
Albemarle county and other nearby
points assembled today at Monticello,
the historic home of Thomas Jeffer-
son, a few miles from Charlottesville,
Va, to lay their tribute of devotion at
the shrine of the great statesman and
patriot. The occasion was primarily
due to the Missouri organization
which bears the name of the sage of
Monticello. They came to Old Domin-
ion to do honors to their great ex-
ampler and to unveil at the home of
Jefferson "a beautiful memorial shaft
or red Missouri granite which they
brought with them.
In years gone by Virginia had con
tributed a gray granite shaft which
formerly marked the grave of Jeffer-
son and now stands on the campus
of the Missouri state university at
Columbia, Mo. The new monument
now offered as a grateful token of
appreciation for this priceless gift
bears the following inscription:
THOMAS JEFFERSON,
Citizen, Statesman, Patriot.
The Greatest Advocate of HUI
man Liberty.

ATTEMPTED AT MURDER.
kalispeIl Man Seriously Wounded BY
Two Masked Men.

'~SNS~
A special to the Standard from
Kalispell says: A dastardly attempt
was made Friday evening about 1880
o'clock to murder and rob Malcolm
McCauley, the head bookkeeper of
the O'Brien sawmill. He was EN-
pcrarily in charge Of the plant. The
managers and superintendent we're in
the east. Thursday is usually pay
cay at the mill.
Two masked men entered the Office
while he was at his desk writing let
lers, and without speaking fired three
shots at their intended victim. One
shot penetrated the abdomen on the
left side. Another was a flesh wound
in the breast and another shot was
a glancing n over the eye. He yell
ed and gave the alarm, getting ont of
the office ahead of tie would be MIR
derers. Assistance arrived within
one minute, but the nil:gt being dark
no trace of the m%urderers was to be
had. They secured nothing.
It is thought the work was done by
amateurs at the business. The sher-
ifs force is working hard, but has
not yet accomplished anything.
McCauley's recovery is very doubt
full. He is a member of the Kaiispell
lodge of Elks.
