A COMPANY has been chartered to build
a railroad from Port Nelson, Hudson Bay,
in a soulherly direction, crossing the line
of the Canadian Pacific near Winnipeg,
Manitoba, through North Dakota, South
Dakota. Kansas, Oklahoma, and Indian
Territory to Galveston, Texas; from Gal
weston through the Tropic of Mexico to
the boundary line of Central America,
through the isthmus of Panama, thence
through the United States of Columbia to
Ecuador, and finally through the Repub-
lie of Peru to Bnenos Ayres, on the At
lan,ic ocean. Two branch lines, one be-
ginning in the Republic of Peru and ex-
tending in a southeasterly direction
through Brazil to Rio de Janeiro, and the
other beginning in the Republic of Peru
and extending in a southerly direction
through Chill to Valparaiso, on the south
Pacific ocean, are also projected. The
estimated cost of the road is $3.50, 900, 900,
and the estimated length 10000 miles.

0sgOOd Family Reunion.

The sixth annual reunion of the Os-
good Family was held at the old home
stead, near Starr postofice, on Saturday
last, Sept. 9Th, 1908, and was M of the
most successful and best attended that
this estimable family has yet held. There
were ~thirty-tive of the family connection
present, and almost as many invited
guests, mainly old friends of the family.
At the business meeting, which was held
in the forenoon, it developed that there
had been no deaths in the family connec-
ton during the year, but there were two
births. Officers for the ensuing year
were elected as follows: President, l.. e.
Osgood Vice Pres, w. f. Jones; Sec'y,
Mrs. W. f, Jones Cor. Sec'y, Geo. w.
Osgood Treasurer, Mrs. T.. Behrens. 1t
was unanimously agreed that the next
reunion be held at the same place, on the
first Saturday OF September, 1904.
Shortly after noon the family and their
invited guests gathered about the bounte-
ously spread tables and partook of the
fine luncheon that had peer prepared by
the ladies of the household, and when
the wants Of the inner man had been
abundantly satisfied a number of nice
speeches were listened to. mainly of an
historical and retrospective nature, and
all of which proved highly interesting
and entertaining to those present. Among
the papers read was an interesting sketch
on the life of the surviving head of the
family, Mrs. Christine Osgood, by Prof.
Hetrick, of which the salient points are
as follows:
Christine Schoelas was born Sept. 18th,
1882, in Roherda, Hesse Cassel, Germany,
Came to America. with her uncle. Bern.
hart Bush, in q sailing vessel when eight
years of age. The ocean voyage was
made in seven weeks, which was great
speed for those early days, but which
now requires often less than seven days.
In July they landed in Baltimore, and
from there they came to Pittsburg by ca
nal boat, and from there overland to Ne
braska, this county, in a lumber wagon
having on it a hay rack similar to the
bark racks Of the present day. Soon af-
ter arriving here she became a member
of the family of the late A. B.. Root, re-

naming about a year and then moved
with the family of the late Amaza Purdy
to Ross Run, where she remained six
years, and then lived with Mrs. Nc
Brides family in Tionesta, where she
mel aud married Hiram OSgood, Oct. 9th,
1851, the wedding ceremony taking place
at what is now known as West Hickory,

aud in April moved TO Buck Mills, where
their first son, George wa born, July
18th, 1852. Their nex place OF residence
was at Newtown, where their second son,
John r., was born, July 18th, 1854. Re-
turning to Minister, then 10 Bear creek,
they finally moved TO the old USg cd farm,
on what was known as "Nigger Hill"
Here -four children were born, namely {:
Jane H., Jan. 25, 1857 ; William H., Aug.
-, 1859; Warren b., June IL, 1862; Vim
ME, Sept. s, 1865. In 1867 they moved
to what is now the Gust Rhodes farm, on
German Hill, and from this place TO the
Andrew Weller farm, where their daugh-
ter, Annie, was born. In 1865 they
moved to the old homestead, where their
youngest son, James Edward, was born,
and where these annual reunions have
been held during the past six years. Hi
ram Osgood died on the old homestead

Story of Old PithOle City.

A special from Titusyille to the Pitts
burg Dispatch under date of the 9th inst,
says:
Recent developments along historical
Pithole creek, where, in the early '6O's,
budded and blossomed the famous Pit
hole City, with a population of some Is =
600 souls, indicate that at least one man
who did not sell his holdings there
when prices were soaring skyward will
still make good" IN his investment.
In 1865, at the Moore House, in this
city, where were assembled moneyed
men from all parts of the country, Nelson
Farel, a w%ell-known oil producer,
bought a piece of land for $l7, 900. On the
same evening he was offered 500 900 in
cash for the property and was about to &C.
cept when a second party raised the fig
ure to 500, 900 by way ofa cash payment
of Sl5, 900 for an option on the property at
the figured named. During the next
three days a heavy storm prevented act
ivity in the field. Enthusiasm began to
wanea and the purchaser was unable TO
raise the remaining SS5, 900.
The memorable crash came soon and
those who had sufficient means left TO
continue in the game dritted to other
fields. Long after the drill had ceased to
pound on the sand rocks and when the
price oflumber had doubled in a couple
of years Farel sold the timber from the
land, realizing a handsome sum. In the
absence of virgin territory and with the
price of oil well up the activity OF wild
cat operators has brought out many sur
prises.
Not the least of these is the new well
on the Farel farm, half a mile from the
famous Uniten States well, which at
tracted fortune hunters from all parts of
the country. After being pumped for
several weeks the Farel No. l is still
placing 40 barrels to its daily credit, and
No. 2, drilled in this week, is good for
10 barrels. Without further develop
ment the property already has a sufficient
production to place its market value at a
figure approaching the $50, 900 mark.
In the meantime Pithole City has long
ceased to exist, and many an individual
who lost a fortune in that famous rush
for wealth will read of Farel's strike
with envy.

ADMIRAL DEwEY's emphatic declara-
ton in favor of a large navy is warranted.
He intimated that many vessels now on
the naval list are of small account, and
that is well known to the experts. There
is 40 reason, as he says, why the people
in general should be deceived in regard
to this matter. A navy able to defend
the country is necessary to the security
of our coast line and our foreign trade.
1t takes years to build even one vessel,
and when wal breaks out, if it ever does,
there will he no time to add to the navy,
The way to prevent war is to be prepared
for it. The expense Of preparation is a
mere item as compared with the expense
of war, to say nothing of the loss of lie.

they might be able to accomplish some
