being the anniversary of her birth. Of

Mrs. George Metzger, Sr., and properly
celebrated Mr.. Julian's 54th anniver-
sary. OF course they and their friends

A Queer Experience.

Josiah Fink, father of ]. HI. Fink, of
this place, had very queer accident
happen him Monday afternoon. He
was driving across the P. & N w.
tracks with some freight when, in some
unexplainable manner, he fell off the
seat, striking his head and side on one
of the rails which rendered him uncon-
scious for fully fifteen minutes. When
he recovered he was unable to explain
the matter at all. He doesn't under
stand how he fell, or after he had appar-
emily gained consciousness did not
remember driving to the depot and un-
loading his wagon. Mr.. Fink is II
years old and is as hale and hearty as
most men at fifty. He is very much
mystified as to how it all happened
Punxsutawney Spirit. The gentleman
referred to above is Josiah Fink, an
old-time resident of Sinnamahoning,
and in his day the wheel horse of Cam
eron county democracy. We know
many of our readers will be pleased to
hear from the gentleman, yet all will
be sorry to hear of his accident.

Marc, the rIagician.

There is nothing more delightful to
the little ones, or the older ones either,
than an entertainment in magic. They
have all read about Aladdin and his
wonderful lamp. They have all read
the facinating books of Hans Andersen
and the marvellous "Grimm's Fairy
Tales" and know the different wizards
in these stories so we'll that if they met
them on the street they wouldn't be
the least afraid. But it is one thing to
read about these wizards of Eye olden
times'' and quite another thing to see
one in this enlightened day of the
world. To be sure there are only a
few, a very few real meritorious and
recognized conjurors in our country
to-day, and "the youngest of the great
and the greatest of the young" of these
wonder-workers is Marc. His easy,
graceful manner and pleasant CONVEX
sational way of presenting things to
his audience at once wins their conf
dence and esteem. For by his peculiar
method of working he gives out the
impression that he is not trying to de-
ceive his audience, and to this fact
alone may be contributed a great pro-
portion of Maro's success, for his au-
ditors at once become on friendly terms
with him, and enter into the various
illusions almost as ardently as the ma
gician himself. Marc is always look
ing about him for something new, and
is constantly presenting program OF
late novelties. He may be termed a
popular conjuror,' for he is just wise
enough for the sedate; humorous en-
ough for the jovial; refined enough for
the fashionable, and just mysterious
enough to please the old and young
alike.
