Second AfIlIctIon Within a Week.

Again the Death Angel has invaded the
home of Mr.. e. A. Yetter, of Marienville,
and taken one of the bright at and most
interesting of the family. Mary Lenore
Yetter was born July Goth, 1900, rn6
passed away Jan. 18th, 1905, at midnight,
following her sister, Effie, just one week,
almost within an hour. She had fioas een
seriously i'll very long, the disease, cere-
bro o.spinal menengitis, taking a fatal turn
less than two weeks prior. A bright,
winsome little creature, full of life and
childish joy and mirth, the pet of the
household, is thus suddenly taken. And
what an aching void is left! Words are
inadequate to portray the sadness of such
a change. Only those who hsve passed
through like affiiction are able to conf
prehend the sitting sorrow. To lose one
is heartrending; to have.two taken with
in week seems a shock too great for the
stoutest heart. Upon the father and
children left who have been called upon
to pass Through dee "a waters of aslic-
tlVi, luls DeIehNeulouti iidllS iDOst HthN-
lily, but to the faithful, loving aunt Miss
Effie Yetter, into whose care the babe
was given when the mother was taken,
three years ago, and to whom she clung
with childish affection, the grief and
heartache is that which only mother can
know. Time, and a resignation to the
will of Him who orders all things well,
alone can heal the pain of such sorrow,
while the knowledge that the sweet little
soul has gone to be with mama and sister
affords consolation to all who witnessed
her suffering in the short span of life al
lotted to her here.
Funeral services were held at the house
Saturday afternoon, conducted by Rev.
Mr.. Adams Of the NJ. L. Church, who
took for his text the words of the Master,
"Suffer little children to come unto me-"
and his talk was full of consolation to the
bereaved family,

Ended Her Life.

Recently Mrs. r. c. Heath, of Starr,
Pa, received the sad news that her sister
in-lsw, Mrs. j. G.. Mates, of Marion.
Kansas, had committed suicide by shoot
ing herself in the head with a revolver,
the unfortunate affair taking place on the
10Th of December last. Mrs. Mates bad
been sick for about three weeks, suffering
with severe pain in the head, causing
delerum at times, but on the morning in
question she had requested her husband
to get some milk tor the baby. This he
did. little realizing what was in her mind
When he returned he found her lying on
the floor in pool of blood. Physicians
were summoned but she lived only about
an hour. The doctor said the great pains
had unbalanced her mind
Mrs. Mates was about "A years of age,
of cheerful disposition, and had been
married about four years. Besides the
husband, baby boy aged one year sur
viyes. The deceased was a step-daugh-
ter of Thomas Purday, formerly resi-
dent of this county, now of Elk, Kansas,
and who will be remem bered by many Of
our citizens, especially the survivors of

member during the Ciyil War.

Almost every woman has met the
ubiquitous newspaper man, who comes
to the house to secure the facts of the
marriage of daughter, or an account OF
a reception or tea or other social event.
And it has doubtless been her experience
to read in the next mornings paper that
Mrs. Blank was a guest at the feast,
when, in fact, she has held 10 converse
with that lady for term of years; or
that the bride was simply attired, wear
ing pearl necklace belonging to her
grandmother. These and many other
like errors might be avoided. says Good
Housekeeping, if the hostess would, at
the earliest possible moment when she
can give the facts, write concise account
OF the coming function. 1t should be a
brief program, with list OF guests and
such other details as the event calls for,

The horse editor of the Franklin
News gives this disquisition on the habits
of the squirrel and grounding, which is
new to many OF us: "Most people think
of the squirrels and woodchucks as com

the members OF both families get out for
drink and luncheon occasionally.
Grounding day is not their only time to
see the sun. When the frost is on 'the
pane, they curl up little closer and rest
week or two at time, but at intervals
they make little runs to the nearest brook
or pond and get a breath of fresh air.
Especially are they active as winter be-

they trip through the treetops. Field

New Railroad Through TeOnesta.

The following exceedingly interesting
item of news is from the Warren Mirror (:
considerable speculation has been
caused to-day by the arrival in Warren
of a gang OF men, whose purpose it is to
make a survey in this vicinity. They
arrived Tuesday evening and engaged
quarters for two weeks at the Carver
House. An Office has been opened in the
II ertzel block, Pennsylvania avenue,
West. When Mirror reporter called
this afternoon he found young man in
charge of the office, who was engaged in
unpacking d afting tables and other sup
plies. When queried as to what is the
purpose of the surveying crew here he
simply smiled end all efforts to obtain
from him any tangible information
proved failC Q, He recommended that
the reporter interview w, w. Hepshey,
fwho is ASSISTANT engineer, and has charge
otthe men, who number 10. Other men,
-bers of the crew were interviewed during
the day, but they would not give out the
least iniorma' ion, evidently acting under
instructions. The Mirror is informed
that the Sfe in the employ of the
Brie RatsTad Company and they have
been sent to- Warren to make a topo-
gfaph3ealtslrvey of the route of pro.
;posed faiIrpaasta connect with the main

and the branch Vi the Erie at Oil City.
The proposed route is on the south side
of the Allegheny river from Oil City to
Warren, and crossing of the Allegheny
will be effected in the Seventh ward,
probably on the west side of the upper
railroad bridge"
If the above is correct it is highly i'm
portant to our town, surely, and the pro-
iect looks at once feasible. The Erie
road would undoubtedly find the new
connection a profitable one. And would
MT this set our town out in great shape ?

Working By Arc Light.

The night work on the building of
the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone
Company's new quarters is attracting
much interest. The building is being
erected on Northwest street and must
be finished within a certain time, be-
sides there must be certain contract
made for wiring, etc, which is pro-
seribed in given time. In order to
push the work it is necessary to work
at night and an extra corps of work
men have been engaged for this pur-
pose. When the day force finishes
work, the night force goes ON, thus a
double force is employed continually
day and night. Four large arc lights
have been erected on the site to fur
nish proper light for those who work
at night. The street is illuminated
the entire block on either side, and
the postoffice opposite is ablaze with
light Crowds gather nightly TO
watch the progress of the work, which

SpcSiA Diep@tch 70 EFentSG (2OitAL
: Washington. ID. O., Oct. I6.-For
the purpose of making the men of the
Navy as proficient in the use of small
arms as they are in the use of the big
guns of their ships, the government
is establishing target range at Guam
anamo, Cuba. that will be one of the
most complete of its kind in the
world.
Guantanamo is regarded as an ideal
place. for rife practice. The range is
on the reservation over which this
government has control as naval sta
tion, and is removed from settlements
so that practice of this character can
be carried on with safety. A recent
report to the Department shows that
already two hundred targets have been
erected and when completed there will
be five hundred. These ranges will
be at 200, 300. 600 and 1000 yards in
length. The range will be utilized in
the winter naval manoeuvers.
Suitable tmedals and other awards
for excellence in craftsmanship have
been provided as incentives for the
men to attain high degree of eff
cheney. Divided according TO their
records, the men will be arranged in
classes, so that the Department will at
all times know who the best shots of
the Navy are and where they are sta
toned. The record of a ship. both
with small arms and the main and
secondary batteries will be taken into
consideration in assigning the ships
to special lines of duty.

PEGGY STEWART DAY.
1t Is To Be Generally Observed
In Annapolis.

Thursday next. October 10 is Peggy
Stewart Day and will be celebrated
this year with greater enthusiasm
than usual.
Marylanders, from tho Governor to
the youngest-rcf1ool children, will pay
again their tribute of praise to the
memory of those brave men who, on
October 10, l774, at Annapolis, showed
the world that Maryland would not
be imposed upon by Great Britain
Again will be repeated the story Of
low those determined men, defying
the threats of the British Colonial
officials, burned the good ship Peggy
Stewart and all her cargo of tea be-
cause Anthony Stewart, the owner
of the ship, was willing to permit a
tax to be paid to England on the tea.
1t will be recalled that the men who
burned the ship wore no masks and
were not disguised as Indians, as was
the case with the Boston tea party
Everyone in Annapolis knew them,
and their action was an outspoken
protest against the tax. What will
come in for most praise is their spirit
and their brave disregard of conse-
quences.
There will be special notice of the
day made in the city public schools
and the Peggy Stewart Tea Party
Chapter, ID A. II. will hold meeting
and have a quiet observance of the
day which honofs their sponsor.

AN UGLY CHARGE is MADE.
III Treatment of Aged Mother BY
Her Son.

The residents of the county in the
neighborhood of Hammonds, and
Brownsville. stations are said to be
much incensed over the alleged ill
treatment of his aged and paralytic
mother by young man living in that
section.
It is claimed that the mother has
some money from a recent sale of prop-
erty aud that the son has repeatedly
throttled her TO force her to sign
checks for him. In addition to this
one night recently the crowd about
the country store at Hammonds were
alarmed by cries of murder proceed
ing apparently from a vehicle which
dashed madly by. The men, some on
foot and others on horseback. gave
chase and overhauled the team which
had, however, by that time. turned
around and was proceeding back at a
more orderly pace.
To question, the man, whose moth
er was in the vehicle, said that he bad
passed a team with two people in il q
short distance up the road. The chase
was then resumed until a second team
was met and the gentleman in this
vehicle stated positively that no team
had gone that way. 1t is claimed that
the man has Systematically maltreated
his mother, who lives alone with him
for some time. Further than this il
is understood that the residents of the
neighborhood have taken the matter
up and will bring it TO the attention
