Death Of Charley u key.

Charley Dickey died at the homo of
his grand parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel
Secrist, of Wishaw, on Sunday morning
at about five o'clock of consumption, at
the age OF 10 years, months and 3
days.
The dread disease did not take q SER
ious form until about two weeks ago.
AT that time he had been at Dubois
visiting friends and on his return
he had severe hemorrhage OF the
lungs, after which he sank rapidly until
death came to his relief. The deceased
was member OF the Methodist church
and an exemplary young man. He was
OF genial disposition, having a cheer
full word for everybody. This trait of
character followed him thro his last
illness as he bore his suffering with for
titude in his faith in God, which leads
us to believe that he died in the belief
that the Redeemer still liveth.
The funeral services were conducted
by the Rev. j. @. McEntire of the Meth
odist church at o'clock on Tuesday
afternoon in the Syphrit church. In
terment at the same place.

from destruction, and the last, 1.-THE
Chariot Race" by Miss Mary Campbell,
OF Punxsutawney, was the familiar but
ever thrilling description OF an ancient
racing event from the pages Of "Ben
Hur."
The last division of the program was
triangular debate on whether Greece,
Rome or Great Britain has exerted the
greatest influence on the worlds civili-
zation, and the arguments brought
forward reflected credit on the intelll-
gence, the research and ingenuity
OF the contestants. For Brookville
Blaine Schaffner extolled the glory Of
Greece-her political power, her con-
quests, the long duration OF her in
fluence, the unrivalled brilliancy OF her
poets and philosophers-of Homer, Of
Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, OF Aris-
tophanes and countless others and
finally laid stress upon the depend.
ence OF both Rome and Great Britain
upon her for their early guidance in
laws and letters. Rome and her centur-
les OF triumph were advocated by Ed
ward Hardman, of Reynoldsville, and
he demonstrated the vast superiority
OF Roman civilization in commerce, law
and religion, the wide extent OF her
dominion, and most of all, the fact that
modern Europe owes almost all her in
stitutions, laws and language to the
civilization OF Rome. In conclusion
Miss Margaret Green, of Punxsutaw-
ney, took up the defence of the greatest
modern nation, Great Britain, and
boldly claimed for 1t place independ-
ent OF and greater than either OF her
famous rivals in civilizing the world.
Her speech was perhaps the most dar-
ing and original of the three and to her
biting sarcasm. which moved to good
humor the audience, she owed much
of her success.
When II was over, and when the
three judges, County Superintendent
f.. G. Shields, OF Clear6eld, Rev. j. v.
Bell, OF Dubois, and Prof. III. E. Trout,
of Clearfield, had retired to deliberate,
the orchestra endeavored to soothe the
tension OF awful suspense by playing
several selections, but still it seemed
very long time until Supt. e. G.
Shields stepped upon the stage with
the fate OF three schools in his hands.
AS he commenced there was an intense
stiffness in the room, but when he pro-
nounced the victor, "Reyuoldsville,
there was wild burst OF deafening ap-
pause, and the enthusiasm of the
Reynoldsville High School delegation
in the left gallery, no longer to be re-
strained, broke forth IN the resounding
High School yell, repeated again and
again.
When quiet was restored Supt.
Shields announced the decision in each
division OF the contest as follows
Essay, Miss Ada Henneigh, Punxsu-
tawney orations, Thomas Nolan,
Reynoldsville recitations, Miss Mar
garet Stoke, Reynoldsville debate, O
tie between Blaine Schaffner, Brook
vile, and Miss Margaret Green, PUNK
sutawney. The decision seemed to
meet the approval U Cne audience and
was generously applauded.
