OF the old gentleman, Henry Brockel-
hurst, whom he had detained some days
ago pending an investigation as to where
he belonged. He communicated with
his son, f. IL. Brockelhurst, who lives in
keating Summit, Potter county, and who
came on and took his father away last
Friday. The man had been missed from
homo about three weeks, having sue
ceeded in eluding the search of his rela-
tives completely until they heard from
the Sheriff, who had found some letters
among the old mans effects that lead TO
the discovery of his proper home.
The very sad word has been received
hero by relatives of the family, of the
sudden death of Mr.. Will Stow, eldest
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Hobart Stow, of To-
ledo, Ohio, on Tuesday morning, May 0.
The death of Mr.. Stow was a peculiarly
sad one, he being struck by car and in
stantly killed This bereavement is
doubly great to the parents, as they have
been called upon to part with both of
their sons within short period of time.
Mr.. Slows many friends in this section
will also be panied to learn that he has
been in quite precarious health of late,
and when the letter was written convey
ing this sad news to the friends here, he
had not been apprised of the death of his
son.
According to well authenti Gated re-
ports some important changes in the
train service of the p. II. h. take place
on May 2S. The new time card is not
yet out, but as nearly as can be figured
now the morning train north, No. 81,
will reach Tionesta nearly an hour ear
lier, or about 1855. The first train south,
No. 30, will pass here about 1000 o'clock
in the morning. Train 33, going north
in the afternoon will pass here about 6:l5,
and the evening train south, No. 32, will
pass Tionesta about $3.50 instead of 7:1S as
now. An additional Sunday train will
be run, leaving Oil City at 2 p. m. and
going as far as Warren, returning about
5:25. These are the most radical changes
that have been made in many years on
this division of the road, and should be
carefully noted by travellers.
Have you planted any garden seeds
this spring? There is pleasure and profit
in garden, whether the plat is back
yard or soap-box affair, and IL care, of
whatever dimension, is not necessarily
a blueoverall drudgery. There are fer
tile spots, rich in humus and decomposed
barn-yard manure, in many back yards,
where all kinds ofvegetables of luxuriant
growth and prolific fruitage could be
grown with little effort, and which would
mature in less time than if grown on less
fertile ground, by reason of more rapid
growth. A few minutes each day spent
in caring for a garden in well-adapted
spot would amply supply the family table
with produce during the season. There
is peculiar quality in vegetables fright
from the garden" that compensates for
little effort in their production in ones
own garden.
Andrew Mcdonald. a young man
living near McDonald's corners, Clarion
was the cause of little excite
ment on our streets Friday forenoon. 1t
seems that the young man got into fight
On Thursday with Joseph Habnger, the
proprietor of hotel at Vowinckel, in
which the hotel man got decidedly the
worst of it, having an ear and thumb
badly chewed. A warrant was sworn out
for Mcdonald, who came to Tionesta in
The Tylersburg stage, closely followed by
Constable David Greenewalt. When
Mcdonald saw the officer he started to
run and after lively sprint through the
back lots was captured by George Brady
IN the river bridge. He was taken back
% Tylersburg the same day and at hear
ng before Squire F. e. King was bound
over to court, giving bail for his appear
,nce. AS an aftermath to this case we
ire informed that McDonald's father has
,aused the arrest of the hotel man on the
,hsrge of selling liquor to minors.
On Sunday, the 7th inst, the dead
body of Miss Mary Ditz, daughter of Jo-
'eph Ditz, of Washington township.

mill pond on Paint creek at Heufner
rhe victim was % years of age and was
