Jos. A. Starner Accidentally Killed.

A dispatch from Kane, Pa, under date
Oct. %. says:
"Joseph A. Starner, survivor of the
Civil war. was accidentally shot and in
stantly killed while hunting near this
place on Saturday. He placed double
barrel shotgun against pile of cord
wood, and one of the sticks fell against
the gunlocks, discharging the weapon,
both loads entering Starner's side. He
was 20 years of age. His wife and several
children survive him."
The foregoing undoubtedly refers to a
former citizen of this vicinity who re-
sided on the old Casper Isert farm, Ger
man Hill, for several years, and who re-
moved to place near Kane about a year
ago. Mr.. Starner is we'll remembered
by many of our citizens, who will be
greatly shocked and grieved to learn of
this tragic affair. Nj. StarDer was man
who was well liked by the people in his
community, good neignbor and moral
upright citizen.

faithful, devoted husband, and kind

MAMMOTH SEA ELEPHANT.

A new and interesting attraction at

Some idea OF the size OF the monster
may be gagged from the fact that from

urement of nearly 2l feet. Such an
animal, when alive, would weigh 10000
pounds, or nearly four and one-half

at its widest part is some rs feet. The
skull alone measures two feet three
inches long and one foot two inches
high.

The year 1905 stands out as a record
breaker-"a year of superlatives in
the business world" as Dun puts It.
Prices of the so most active railway
securities have reached the highest
point on record; the output OF pig iron
In the first half Of 1905 not only far
surpassed any preceding six months
production, but exceeded every full
year prior to 1898: prices OF hides are
at the highest position since the civil
war; wool quotations have not been
as strong since the early sos; ship
ments OF footwear from Boston are
close to the maximum, and including
all shoe centers the movement this
year is beyond precedent. Foreign
commerce in July surpassed the cor.
responding month In any previous

THE TRADEMARK ARTIST.
Inventor of Words and Signs as Trade
Attractions Does Flourish
ing Business.

Art is a fanciful mistress and has
many wooers. One of the latest is the
trademark maker. There are a half
dozen prosperous members OF this trade
in the city, says the New York Post.
The best-known Is an Irish-American
with more wit than talent for line or
color. lie was a mediocre lawyer before
he took to inventing trademarks for
merchants. His legal knowledge makes
his services doubly valuable.
There are lots Of tricks IN this trade,
said he, ''and one has to keep his eyes
open. Did you know one couldn't regis
ter a trademark unless he was a mer-
chant or engaged in a business of some
kind? An insurrectionist or an exile
cannot register either, but Indians and
married women can, although some
states with antique laws won't allow
them to own property in their own
names. Women get us into lot Of
trouble. A complexion maker ordered

mark, American Caviar. That was
void, too. Then the feminine mind de-
lights in actresses names for goods, and
If there is any possibility of the his
trions ever going into the business
the marks suggest, the government
refuses to register. With historic
names such as Dolly Madison. Martha
Washington, etc. it's all right.
Animals make splendid marks and
give the artist a chance. l think the
most successful idea, however. is the
signature and a newly-coined word.
In the former patent-medicine maxi
ers turn out the most novelties, and
in the latter the cereal food manufac-
turers. Some OF these merchants
think nothing of turning out a new
food and a new mark each month.
Sometimes prizes are offered for
newly-coined words, and sometimes
the artist supplies the word. the legal
knowledge OF registry and the sketch
OF the mark. In this case there Is
bound to be a splendid financial re-
turn. The latest thing is the collec-
tor of trade marks and labels. He
haunts the studios and makes life q
