tive place. He attended the school
then held in the Commissioners office,
no school house having then been built,
and in 1910, the academy having been
completed, he attended that institution
for two years. He then began teaching,
and for nearly thirty years was found
il the school room each winter, clear
ing and working during the summer
seasons farm that he took up in the
almost unbroken forest south of Coud-
ersport. In 1874 he married Sarah
youngest daughter of John Peet, one of
the earliest settlers of the county This
brave and devoted woman, early Injured
to the hardships of pioneer life, was
indeed a helpmeet, eking out, with a
frugal hand, the meager living yielded
by the scanty wages of the teacher, and
the sterile soil of the farm. She died
in 1877. Seven children were born to
them, four of whom died in the diph-
liberia scourge in 1862; one, Alice, died
in 1879, and two sons, Mahlon and
Amos, are still living. In 1864, Mr..
Colcord enlisted in the army, and
served to the close of the war In 1858
he moved to First Fork, Cameron
county, where he still resides, active
and energetic, though nearly seventy
years old. Since 1870, he has devoted
part of his time to the practice of med
icine, which he studied while a young
successful, being thoroughly in love
with his work, keeping abreast of i'm.
provement by professional reading and
attending educational meetings all over
the county, often at serious inconven-
ience and pecuniary loss to himself.
No sacrifice was too great for him to
make for his school, and the salary was
but a small part of his compensation.
Both as teacher and director, which
latter office he has held for many years,
Mr.. Colcord has been a champion of
the free school system, and an earnest
advocate of the education of the masses.
Generous to fault, thoroughly honest,
ready to divide his last dollar with the
needy, turning no one from his door
hungry, the acquisition of wealth has
never been his ambition; and though
poverty may have prevented the realiz-
alton of youthful hopes, and kept him
in the valley when he would have been
at the mountain top, yet the retrospect
of life devoted unselfishly to the good
of others must have its compensation"

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR CATARRH
Just Breath Hyomei Four Times Day
and be Cured

If few years ago, someone had said
you can cure catarrh by breathing air
charged with healing balsam, the idea
would have been ridculed and it remain
ed for the eminent investigator, r. r.
Booth, to discover in Ilyomei this method
of cure.
Hyomei has performed almost miracu-
lous cures of catarrh, and is to-day reco-
gnized by leading members ofthe medical
profession as the only advertised remedy
that can be relied upon to do just what it
claims. The complete outfit of Hyomei
costs Sl.00. and consists OF an inhaler, a
medicine dropper, and bottle of Hyonei
Breathe Hyomei through the inhaler
for a few minutes four times day, and it
will cure the worst case of catamh. 1t
soothes and heals the mucous membrane
of the air passages, prevents irritation
and effects a complete and lasting cure.
In Emporium there are scores of well
known people who have been cured of
catarrh by Hyomei. If it does not cure
you, j. Taggart will return the money
you pay for Hyomei. This is the strong
est evidence that can be offered as to his
faith in the remedy.

engine was lifted out and the thrust collars were
rebabbited. The piston rod of the port engine
which was bent half inch on the way here
was Strengthened and a crew under Bert
Wheeler, chief machnist repaired the steam
piping. There is rumor that the Bennington's
boilers were leaking before she left Honolulu
The machinists employed on the vessel say they
did not hear of any trouble with the boilers

personality and evidence of the continued
French devotion to the Russian alliance the
Russian peace plenipotentiary had a two hours
talk with PreU.ier Rouvier to-day. and was re-
ceived in audience by President Loubet at the
Elysee Palace. No authoritative statement was
given out concerning either meeting
One report Is that NJ Rouyier and NJ Witte
went over the prospective peace negotiations
dwelling particularly upon the influence France
could exert on Great Britain to induce the latter
to moderate the japanese demands 1t is also
the accepted view that NJ. Witte is favorable 10

ing peace in the Far East would be secured
The prospects of this understanding are re-

may be induced to abate the severity of her
conditions particularly upon the question of the
indemnity
The French officials speak favorably Of such
an understanding. the conclusion of which. be-

of Russia and Great Britain the ally of Japan
Among NJ Whites callers the hotel were
some of the leading financiers connected with
previous Russian loans. However. NJ Witte has
no need of sounding financial sentiment. as he
has been completely advised this subject
through the representatives OF the Russian
Finance Department here and by the Paris
branch Of the Russo Chinese Bank. of which he
was one of the chief organizers. 1t is recalled
that NJ. Rouvier's cautious attitude contributed
to limit further French investments In Russian
securities. When the last Russian loan was at
tempted. however NJ. Rouvier's caution not
due to any hostility toward Russia. but solely to
hostility TO a continuance of the war. He shares
in this respect the general view OF the financiers
here, one OF whom remarked
Russia is able to secure all the French money
she wants to make peace. but not a centime to
make war.
President Loubet received NJ. Witte this after
noon at the Elysee Palace. The meeting was
devoid of ceremony. and consisted Of half an
hours talk in the Presidents library. NJ. Loubet

10 the bureau TO show that the boilers were in
an unsafe condition. He said to-day:
After examining the plans Of the Benning-
ton in the light OF the dispatches giving an ac-
count or the disaster. cannot possibly conceive
how the collapsing OF a crown sheet could dam
age the ship TO the extent stated or have blown
persons overheard from the deck.

AS to the cause Of the explosion cannot say

Every one in the fire room AT the time

the collapsed crown sheet of boiler D and four
more by the burst bulkhead. These bodies we
are now trying to release. To do this it will be
necessary to cut the steel bulllhead in two
places. Or Of the bodies is wedged in such
shape that il may be necessary to dismember it
TO take it out. We are hindered. of course by
The water IN the boiler and the fire rooms and
are taking measures to pump this out rapid
ly as possible. | cannot express an opinion to
when We will reach the bodies.
There we're no high explosives in the part Of
The ship where the explosion occurred. and am
positive that it viii be found that all damage
was caused by the boilers.
As far ! know the boilers were in first class
condition. They had been recently tested to 225
pounds pressure. At the time OF the explosion
we carried only 40 pounds The boilers were
