Twelve Free Scholarships.

Through the generosity of citizen of
Forest county, twelve free scholarships
in the Clorion Normal, for the spring
term of 1905, are offered to twelve pupils
of the county,
The scholarships will be issued from a
competitive examination to be held on
March IL, 1905. Not more than two will
be issued to the pupils of any one school.
The examination will be confined to
spelling, reading, writing, arithmetic,
geography, grammer, U. S. history, and
physiology. All pupils under Is years
of age are eligible, and the scholarships
cover all necessary expenses of the
school, viz; Tuition, room, board and
laundry.
This is an excellent opportunity for
the pupils of the county to attain to high
or educational advantages without the
expenditure ofmoney. 1t is hoped that
the opportunity will stimulate many pu
pills to do thorough work. Further in
formation may be obtained from any
teacher in the county.

Fire at West Hickory.

A dwelling house belonging to Wheeler
Il Dusenbury, at West Hickory, and oc-
cupied by George II. Hood and family,
was destroyed by fire last Saturday after
noon. The fire evidently had caught
from defective flue, and when discov-
cred, between two and three o'clock, had
gained such headwsy that but few of the
household goods could be saved. Mr..
and Mrs. Hood were absent from the
house at the time, and the discovery was
made by some one IRON the outside, the
the entire upper portion of the house be-
ing a mass of flames. The tannery COM
pany has hydrant near where the fire
occurred, and by prompt and heroic Ell
forts of the neighbors, and good force
behind the pump, which had been put in
proper repair only an hour or two before,
the fire was confined to the one building,
and kept from communicating with other
buildings and large stack of bark near
by, one house being located only ten feet
from the burned building.
In attempting to rescue some of the
household goods Mr.. NJ. N. Gilbert had
IA narrow escape from death. He was in
the house when the ceiling fell, and was
nearly overcome by smoke and heat, but
escaped with several severe burns about
the face and hands.
Mr.. Hoods loss on furniture was prac-
tically total one, and will reach near the
81, 900 mark which is partially covered by
an insurance of 500 in the Arner Agency
of Tionesta. The house was valued at
about 800, with no insurance.

Buckley, Washington.

From private letter from II. A. Lynch,
a former we'll known citizen of Endeav-
or, Forest county, we take the liberty to
give the following extract to our readers,
many of whom we are sure will be
pleased to hear from Harvey:
Didn't Pennsylvania, New York and
all of the other little fellows "divy up"
in good shape for "Teddy?" l don't
think we will have any opposition from
the Democrats at the next presidential
election, for the reason that they will not
be able to dig themselves out and get
ready for action for at least ten years
any how.
All of the Forest county people who
are located near here are well and getting
along nicely, and myself and family are
having our usual health. The weather is
nice and warm here; in fact we always
have mild weather in this part of Wash
ington. 1 have only heard it thunder
once this summer. Hard storms we
never have here.
The lumber business is pretty dull on
the Sound at present, and has been all
summer, but the outlook is much better
for the lumbermen and think there will
be much greater activity in the lumber
business this coming year.
/ like it out here and expect to stay. 1t
is my opinion that any one who will
co lie to this part of Washington and
stay for one year or more will not be
very likely to return to the Atlantic
coast again and stay.
How would you like to see trout; yes
trout! from II to Is inches long jump
ing up out of the water, . to 10 feet trying
to get up over the mill pond? Well, you
can see this here any day now if you
were here. Better come out! / think l
hear you say rats" so | will just stop.
with kindest regards 90 all the boys and
yourself, II. A. LYNCH.

The freeze up in tie creek is causing
no little trouble to the Nebraska timber
firm, which has a number of boats and
barges frozen solidly in the ice. These
craft have been ready for the run to the
lower market for some time, and were
awaiting the usual fall rise in the creek
and river, which up to this time has
failed to materialize, in consequence of
which there is danger that considerable
damage and loss will be sustained by the
owners when the breakup comes. Prep
arations are max ing TO take care of the
stuff as well as possible under the cir
cumstances by taking out the "lOading,"
thus making it easier to hold the boats
when the ice moves out.
For some time past the scientific cul-
tivation of the potato, /. O., the selection
of the best and most fecund varieties for
seed, has been in progress in Great Brit
ain, and this year the experiment has
been attended with Lighly successful re-
suits. One farmer who has been engaged
in several trials with new species has this
year lifted tuber weighing 4l pounds,
while another variety weighing 4 4pounds,
ounces. One farmer who planted II
pounds of seed OF a special variety has
gathered in a crop of over $50 pounds.
Investigations are now being carried out
to obtain a disease proof" potato, as the
predominance of disease wreaks consid-
erable havoc among the crops, and is re-
sponsible for heavy percentage Of
waste.

farmers of the country districts, annoyed
by the fast-hying autos, had resurrected
an old Slate law of years ago, in which it
is plainly stated that the occupants OF ve-
hicles not drawn by horses, mules or OK
en-, sha /, in trayersing country roads,
least 200 yards to give warning to all
travellers, and that any vehicle not drawn
by horses, mules or oxen shall stop dead
within 300 yards of any other vehicle and
allow 1t to pass. The law, long since for
gotten, was passed years ago by farmers
to guard against accidents by horses TAX
ing fright at steam threshers, etc."
Joshua Anthony, for the past four
years an inmate of tue County Home,
died on Saturday, aged IS years. Funer-
al services were held at the Home in the
aftel noon, conducted by Rev. w. o. Cal
houn, and the intermeht was made in
Riverside cemetery. Mr.. Anthony was
one of the pleasantest and most agreeable
of the inmates at the Home. He was
once prosperous anu WeIl-to-uO cltlHeh,
and in his younger days conducted large
and fiourishing hotels at Silver Creek
aud Dunkirk, N. Y, Erie, Pa, Cleveland,
Ohio, and in the palmy days of Rouse
vile, he built and conducted large hotel
there. Investments. in oil properties
which did not pan out as expected relieved
him of his fortune, but not of his genial
ity and goodness of heart and mind. His
death came without warning or pain. In
the morning he ate hearty breakfast and
soon after remarked that he didn't ieel
just right and thought he would lie down
awhile. III less than half an hour the
spirit of the kind old man had taken its
| flight
