Hunting Horse Thieves.

On Friday night mare, buggy and
harness were stolen from the stable OF j..
X. Dale, of Pitchpine, Clarion county.
Mr.. Dale is a member of the Anti-Horse
Thief Association and his home is equip
ped with farmers telephone. Inside of
an hour after the loss was discovered
there were 40 able. bodied farmeaS and
their sons securing the country in all di-
rections Tor the missing property and the
thieves. Two of the party, Austin Sig
worth and J. w. Kountz, arrived here on
Sunday afternoon, having been on the
search for two days, but secured no trace
of the property. The animal Is fat, IA
years old and has never been more than
20 miles 4way from the owners barn.
She is bay in color, with a white stripe
on her face. The buggy is black, with
ed wheels aud green cushions. AS the
animal was very slow in lOcomotion it is
believed that the thieves abandoned her
afIer short drive. The gentlemen who
were here Sunday explained the methods
of the association. They each and all
pledge themselves 10 respond to any
call made by a member and keep up the
chase for three days if necessary, paying
each his own expenses. These assOcia-
tions are becoming common, and with
the system of 90 operative telephone
liues maintained Ivy farmers, l. e occu-
patton of the horse thief is about gone in
this section. Derrick.

Big Fire liz Oil City.

The Smart & Silberberg store, in Oil
City, one of the finest in Northwestern
Pennsylvania, was completely gutted by
fire on Monday evening of this week, the
first discovery of the flames being about
10 o'clock. George J. Veach's art store
occupied portion of the ground floor of
the big block, and his stock was also
practically ruined. A tier of offices oc-
cupied part of the second floor, and
other offices were located on the third
floor. The losses are estimated at about
S275, 600, with probably not more than
one-third the amount covered by insur
ance. The proprietors of this fine empo-
rum, Me ssrs. Smart IL Silberberg, are
young business men, chOck full of ener-
gy and grit, and before the fire was com
pletely under control, they had issued a
bulletin in the Derrick announcing that,
while they could not tell just where or
when, but as soon as circumstances
would permit they would make their
opening known, and their business would
progress as usual.

A Surprise Party.

On Nov. Sd, the Kellettvile Hive, No.
2i9, gave their esteemed Lady Com
mander one of the happiest surprise
parties of her recollection. The ladies
gathered at the hall at l0:30 a. m, and
a ter considerable lung exercise started
out on foot over the rugged hills of Kings
ley tIwnship, to little village known as
the Branch, here they surprised the
hostess and epioyd one of the mot boun-
tiful luncheons in the history of the hive,
after which they gave their Lady Com
mander a fond adieu, and proceeded
homeward. But before we could lose
the last glimpse Of the little village the
la lies made motion that Lady Gillespie
make a stump speech which was im-
mediately carried out, and still feeling
that her speech had done justice to the
occasion she followed by parody "Did
your father peddle fish," followed in the
chorus by the remaining ladies of the
hive; and then proceeding homeward
experienced no more excitement, as all
the wild beasts within the radius of miles
after hearing our charming voices re-
treated into the junglts.

Found Dead in His Wagon.

Charles Detar was found dead in his
wagon while returning from a trip to
Hallton, Elk comfy, last Saturday. He
had been in the employ of N. f. Hoover,
of Marienville, who has been iobbing in
the bark woods at Wynkoop run, in the
edge of Elk county, and Mr.. Hoover had
sent him out with the last load of bark,
and to bring back load of feed. On his
way back he came up with another team
ster and had lain down on the bags con-
tanning the feed. The head teamster sup
rosing that ho had fallen asleep, kept
watch of the horses. Mr.. Hoover, know
ing the roads to be rough and that dark
ness would probably overtake him, had
started on the way to meet Detar, which
he did about half way between the two
places. Stopping the team he attempted
to rouse the supposed sleeper, when he
found to his utter astonishment that
he vas dead All efforts to find any
signs of life failed, though the body was
still warm, and Mr.. Hoover thinks the
man could not have been dead more than
fifteen or twenty minutes. Arrange
menls were at once instituted for the
holding ofan inquest. the jury returning
a verdict tLat the man had come to b. s
death by unknown causes. The deceased
was well known in the vicinity of Ty-
lersburg, where he was reared in the fam
lily OF Mrs. j. II. Smith, having been left
an orphan when but mere child. He
was aged about 30 years, and single. Mr..
Hoover had the body prepared for burial
aud conveyed to Iylersburg, where the
funeral was held yesterday.

OF Interest TO School Boards.

The Clarion Democrat gives the follow
ing facts concerning a case which has at
tracted considerable interest, not only in
that but other counties, and demonstrates
anew the importance of school boards
knowing they are right before going
ahead
"The case of A. j. Davis VS.. The
school District of East Brady Borough
was tried before arbtrators October 2Sth,
and resulted in AN award i'm favor oftbe
plaintiff in the sum of S36l.25. This
case was brought by the plaintiff, A. j.
Davis, to recover his salary as principal
Of the East Brady schools for the latter
part of the school term on the grounds
that he had been uniustly removed be-
fore the end Of the term without cause
and without hearing.
"The plaintiff alleges in his statement
of claim that on or about October l3, 1908,
he was elected principal of the East Brady
schools; that he entered upon mis- duties
as teacher and principal on the 18th day
of October, 1903, and continued to dis
charge the said duties until January 4th,
1901, when lie was dismissed aud ousted
from the said school by the defendant
without hearing and without reasonable
and legal cause.
"The defendant in its affidavit of de-
fense admitted the election of the plaintiff
a. principal of this schools, but alleged
that he was incompetent and negligent in
| discharging his duties for which cause he
was dismissed. Afterwards. the defend
ant filed an amended affidavit OF defence
denying that the plaintiff was legally
hired and therefore he could not re- over.
The act of Assembly of April IL, 1862,
Section 4, provides as follows:
That no tax for school or building
purposes shall be levied, no resolutions
shall he adopted for the purchase or sale
Of any school real estate, no school house
shall be- located or its location abandoned
or changed, no teacher shall be appointed
| or dismissed, no annual school term shall
be determined on, nor shall any general

series of text books be selected, in any
common school district, except by the af-
iirmative votes off majority OF the whole
number of he directors or controllers
thereof and in each of said cases the
names of tie members voting both in the
Affirmative and negative, shall be entered
on the minutes of the board by the sec.
retary.'
"1he defendant contended that as their
minutes did not record the names of the
members of The board voting for and
against the plaintiff at the time of his
election lie was not legally elected and
therefore could not recover. The arbi.
traitors, Geo. f. Whitner, S. X. Clarke
and w. j. Geary, held Il at as the defend
ant had admitted the election OF the
plaintiff 1t should not afterwards be al
lowed to amend its affidavit of defenSe e
denying his election and as no evidence
was offered To prove the incompetence
aud negligence ofthe plaintiff an award
was given in his favor. The plaintiff
was represented by W. A. Hindman and
Corbett II Rugh aud the defendant by f.
j. Mstlett aud T. l.. Wilson"
