Oakland, so far as the illumination
OF her streets are concerned will eth
er be compelled to go back to the old
fashioned coal oil lamps or do without
light of any kind unless arrangements
different from those now in vogue are
made
On Oct. LIST the contract entered in
to between the town and the Oak
land Electric Company expired. As
no renewal was made the current was
turned off and last night the citizens
of Oakland fioundered around in the
mud and inky darkness as best they
could.
sometime ago committee compos-
ed OF three members of the Coucil was
appointed to wait upon the owner of
the electric plant and ascertain at
what price per lamp a new contract
could be made. Mr.. Offutt declined
to make contract similar to the one
then in force but proposed that the
town pay $50 per year for each light
TO run upon a moonlight schedule
subject to a deduction of 3 cents per
hour per light when the lamps failed
to burn. AT this rate the cost to the
town would have amounted to S2O55
per year being based upon the same
number of. lamps now in use. The
committee declined the proposition
stating that the rate was entirely too
high and as a result affairs are as
above stated with no relief in sight.
Yesterday a representative of THE
REPUBLICAN interviewed the secre-
tary of the Electric Company who
stated that his company would not
renew contract with the town feel
ing that owing to the short supply of
coal in sight it would be unable to
fulfill the contract and thus place the
company as well as the town in an
embarrassing position, giving as a fur
ther reason for the action of the com
pany the excessive cost of hauling
coal from the local mines and the in
conveniences incidental thereto.
The users of the incandescent sys-
TEN were taken by surprise yesterday
by the receipt of the following notice
which was served upon each individ-
ual using that circuit:
NoTIcE-I hereby notify you that
your contract with the Oakland Elec-
trio Company for lights will be can
celled October 31st, 1902. Hoping that
we may be able to renew the same,
am, Respectfully yours.
D. E. OFFUTT.
From representative of the COM
pany it was learned that this action
was also taken as a result of the coal
shortage the notice being but legal
form to prevent actions for damages
should the company be unable to Sc
cure supply of fuel at the expiration
of the time stated for cancelling the
contracts now in force

Letter to S. r. Jones.

Dear Sir: Mr.. H. H. Stephenson,
Cashier of Oil City (Pa,) Savings Bank
writes: Nine years ago painted my
house with your paint 1t wore so
well | want to use it again
That's nothing wonderful except
for the fact that the soft coal region
of Pennsylvania is pretty hard on
paint with its oil, smoke and CRIME.
All we see in it is that Devoe is good
for nine years sometimes. There are
thousands of people that know it and
millions that don't.
There's the rub! We print for the
millions; we want to make paint for
the millions.
Mr.. Cashier, do you know that De-
voc lead and zinc is worth twice as
much as old-fashion painters paint,
lead and oil, and costs no more? Is
100 per cent. a fair profit in your bus
mess?
Threequarters of the people paint
lead and oil mixed by hand; while the
U. S. Government use lead, zinc and
oil ground together by machinery
same proportions as Deyoe lead and
zinc. The majority never is right
about anything.
Yours truly,

Freight Wreck at FrankviIle.

a costly wreck occurred on the
third division of the B. & o. Saturday
night about seven o'clock, at Frank
vile, three miles east of Swanton, in
which a caboose and four empty stock
cars were badly smashed.
A train in going up the heavy grade
was stalled and the engine of the
train following was cut loose and was
helping up the grade. The engineer
OF the stalled train suddenly put on
the air brakes while the rear engine
was under heavy pressure of steam,
with the result that the four rear cars
were telescoped and the caboose dam
aged beyond repair.
The wrecking crew from Cumber-
land was sent to the scene and soon
had the tracks cleared. No one was
injured.

ANOTHER.

Another wreck occurred near the
east end of Everts tunnel Just west of
Bloomington, on the seventeen mile
grade, Monday morning in which
Conductor Bush Hardesty, of Terra
Alta, had his collar bone broken and
Brakeman Thomas Haslip, of Graf
ton, was seriously injured.
Five non-air cars on the rear end of
the train drawn by engine 1865 were
parted and the engineer installing
the 'broke loose" signal, stopped.
The five cars smashed into the train
and two loaded with beans and wheat.
were demolished. A mixture of beans
and wheat was scattered along the
track several feet deep. Conductor
Hardesty was taken to his home in
Terra Alta and Brakeman Haslip to
Grafton. Wrecking crews from Cum
berland and Piedmont soon cleared
the tracks.
