The TiOneSta Mantel Manufacturing
Company, Iuc.

To one who knows what a vast estab-
lishment the above words bring to mind
the following lines will not be surprising.
But those are not the ones we wish to
reach-t is those who do not know. Few
of us ever stop to think, or when we
think at all of our home town, it is merely
as Tionesta, the county seat of Forest,
situated at the junction of Tionesta creek
with the Allegheny river, and that's
about all. We never seem TO realize that
we have in our little borough manufac-
turing plant that has been potent factor
in spreading the name of Tionesta over
the entere United States, Canada and
Mexico, but such is the fact.
The erection of the buildings for the
Tionesta mantcl factory was commenced
in the spring Of 1897, and actual opera
tiOns were commenced in October of that
year. 1t was an unknown quantity" at
that time, and there were those who pre-
dcted the success of the venture, and
there were those who predicted other
wise, for, like all towns, Tionesta has a
le v members of the "knockers' club"
and they are always in evidence. The
factory started out under very bright
prospects, but after a few months began
to weaken. Some laid the blame to mis-
management and others to the ineXperi-
ence and timidity of the stockholders, at
any rate the outlook was decidedly
gloomy for some time and the "knock-
ers' commenced to say, 81 told you So"
But it is different now, and since the sale
of stock and the reorganization of the
company, everything is moving along
swimmingly and prospects for the future
are assuredly successful.
The present officers ofthe company are
as follows: A. b. Kelly, G.. w. Robin
son, Il. d. Collins, j. c. Bowman, f. r..
Lansou, directors, and Chas. X. Bowman,
general manager. Under the efficient
management of these gentlemen the Tio-
nesta Mantel Manufacturing Company is
now doing an excellent business and the
output from its factory is helping to be u
| tiiy many of the modern homes building
IN the great cities of the United States to-
day.
Since c. II. Bowman has been superin-
tendent it has been his constant effort to
secure none but the finest of workmen,
and the class of work now turned out
and the favor with which it is being re-
ceived is an eminent testimonial of his
success, for there is not firm in the
country that handles builders supplies
that does not know Of the 1iOnesta Man
tel Co., and the high grade mantels, side
boards, book cases, china closets, office,
bank and store fixtures and show cases,
interior finish, veneered doors and high
grade builders mill work that is turned
out by this company. And yet, this is
not surprising when you iind sucl skilled

mechanics as Alex Swanson, designer
and draughtsman and foreman of the
cabinetmaking and machine departments,
w, Ii. Morgan, foreman of the carving
department, John Gold, foreman of
the finishing department, and last but
not least, our German friend, Joseph
Schudabaugh, the boss turner, who, when
asked if he would be willing to compete
with anyone for the championship in ar
tistic wood turning, with his character
istic shrug of the shoulders replied :
"Watl Yes. Coon aheadt. Aint it?"
Thus, through the officers and their
efforts, through their many and able as
sistants, through its workingmen, those
sinews of strength, the Tionesta Mantel
Manufacturing Company, Inc, is a per-
manent fixture.
The factory is this week making a
shipment of eighty high grade mautels to
the National Capital for use in some OF
the elegant new mansions under course OF
erection in that handsomest of the world 5

consideration contract for one hundred

William, the fourteen -year-old son Of
William Anthony of Nebraska, this
county was drowned in Tionesta creek at
that place on tho ID inst. In company
with some other boys ho was catching
logs a short distance below the dam. He
was using a pike pole to the end of
which he had fastened rope. lie threw
the pike into a passing log and was about
! to pu III it in when the rope became en-.
tangled about his foot and he was ierked
of the fiat boat on which he had been
standing into the swift current, the creek
being high from the heavy rains of the
night previous. The little fellow was a
good swimmer and made heroic efforts to
gain the shore, but the heavy current was
too much for him and he soon disap-
peared from view. There were several
men on the banks of the creek, but for
the instant there was no small boat handy,
and the men were powerless in their
anxiety to help him.
Searcaing pai ties were Immediately or
ganized aud constant watch for the
body was kept up for several days, some
of the parties going as far as Oil City,
where notice was published requesting
parties below to notify the authorities at
Tionesta if the body should be found. On
Wednesday evening last, six days after
the accident, the body way seen floating
under the bridge at oil City, the dscov-
cry and recovery of which is thus told by
the Derrick:
"About $3.50 o'clock in the evening a
number of persons crossing the Relief
bridge saw a body floating in the river
about 100 feet from the shore. Among
these was J. Il. Russell, a Young man
who knows what to do in an emergency.
While others were looking at the body,
excitedly commenting upon its presence
in tine river, he stopped a companion, w.
c. jolly, who was riding wheel, and di-
rected him to ride down to Moran's eddy
and get a boat from Mr.. Maple, He then
called up Chief of Police Nugent on the
telephone and notified him, and then di-
iected John Osnlder of the firm of Os-
nider n Fritz, to go to the lower end of
the town prepai ed to take charge of the
body. In the meantime. A. Z. Jones of
East Second street, had seen the body
floating and started ON a run down the
railroad tracks. At the foot of Innis
street he Joined J. +. Russell brother of
the lad who had given the first alarm,
and W. G. jolly and the three rowed out
into the river and interrupted the body,
which they towed to the shore"
Deputy Coroner Griffith Of franklin
was notified and selected jury and held
an inquest the same evening, rendering
a verdict that the boy had come to his
death by accidental drowning. Friends
here were notified, and two of the boys
brothers drove down in the night ZACH
ing there before the casket was scaled,
and fully identified the body as that of
their uniogtunae little brother.
The remains were brought TO Tionesta
Thursday morning and given Lurial in
Riverside cemetery. The parents Of the
boy are PROSTATE with grief over the
shocking affair, and have the sympathy
of the entire community in their great be-
reavement

Rev. Buzza'S Daughter Nearly Per-
ished in a Swamp,

The people of Jamestown, Pa, were
greatly excited last Friday over the mar
row escape ofa little daughter Of Rev.
Buzza, formerly of Tionesta. The stu-
alton was aggravated by rumors ofan es-
capped panther that is said to be re aiming
in the woods near that place, says the
Derrick.
The little girl was visiting her grand
parents, few miles from the village,
near whose farm is a dense woods where
the panther, said to have escaped from
Buffalo Bills show which recently visit
ed that section, is thought to be. The
child, OILY six or seven years old, went
with her grandfather to the barn and
darkness coming on was told to return to
the house. The grandfather then won't
about his chores, and all unnoticed the
little girl, instead of returning to the
house, started OIL across large corn field.
When the old gentleman returned to the
house her absence was discovered and no
tra,e Of her could be found.
Almost distracted the grandparents be-
gan search for her but without success.
Several hours later a party of about 30
men who had been hunting in the woods
for the escaped panther found the child
in swamp some distance from the house.
She had sunk up TO her arm pits in the
mire and was rescued with great dihi-
Guilty, halrde from exposure and al
most delirious from fright, but recovered
within short time. She was finally,
late at night, returned to her grandparents
who, from stories told Of the wild beast
in the woods, had begun to fear tie little

WILL MAKE JUNE
NOTABLE MONTH
Methodists Of Virginia Will Then
Make the Canvass Of Their
History for 0rphanage Here

The Methodists intend to make the
coming June remarkable. They expect
! to make the greatest canvass OF the
State that probably ever has been made
by that denomination for any cause. Inc
beneficiary is~the orphanaSe.
June has been set apart, ana III ortho-
dox Methodist circles will be known the
State over as "Orphanase Month.
A distinct campaign has been mapped
out. OF course, the leader will be that
tireless worker, Rev. J. Il. Mastin, the
financial agent Of the orphanage. He has
already been over much Of the STATE
and has abundant success and so much
encoura cement he can never doubt for
moment that the care of the orphans OIL i,
Methodist parentage is a dear subject to
the people of that denomination in every
section Of the old Commonwealth. But
he will be aided this time by every
Methodist minister in the State.
In this canvass the able ministry OF
this city will take & prominent part.
Every one Of them has agreed to speak
that month for the orphanage not only
to their own people, but will go OUTSIDE
of the city and use their persuasive elo-
ouence to present the noble mission OF
such an institution as an orphanage in
a manner convincing of it's merit and
deserving liberal support. Another ce-
parture from the recent canvasses Tor
the orphanage will be that this time
every denomination in the State will be
asked to help. That does not mean that
the Methodists are going to ask other
denominations to let their own work, suf-
fer, but heretofore only Methodists have
been asked to give to this cause. Now
every one will be given an opportunity
The institution is for homeless children,
and every one who loves children and
wants to help those whose natural sup
port has been removed by death, must
feel an interest In 1T.
Another general effort Is also soon to
be made, this time by the Methodlsts OF
the CITY. This will be in the interest OF
missions The Christian Advocate will
soon get out a special edition on the
mission work here.

Teachers Not to Blame.

Editor Of The Times:
sir,-I should like to say a few words
Ii. regard to schools. / think the
teachers of Virginia are as competent
and discharge their duties as 1ully, as
who could be procured. It is useless
to censnre a teacher for q pupils non
progression. when the pupils do not at
tend regularly enough to be advanced in
their studies.
i think parents should be earnestly APP
pealed to through The Times and other
spidely-read papers pertaining to the very
i'm portant duty involved upon them Of
sending their children to school daily
Surely children cannot be advanced when
sIcpt from school. Many patrons5sin my
community complain seriously of the fire..
zcuent change in books. and say they are
5n.,t financially able to make changes IN
backs as required. 4 should especially
clad Il our finance was sudicient TO- ad-.
