The children are Mrs. Dora Labalt, and
George, residing at Fairview; Mrs. Geo.
Ryan, residing in Dakota; Mrs. Albert

great kindliness of heart and mind. The
funeral was held on Sabbath last, his re-
mains being laid to rest in the cemetery

The annual scarecrows are early on

of dire disasters when the breakup comes
this spring. Should the present great
hodv of snow be taken Off with sudden
rain, while the heavy ice is still solid on
the river and creeks, ETC., and so on, then
look out! Well, why not look on the
other side? Should the breakup come
gradually, the snow melt from the
warmth of sun and atmosphere, and the
ice rot. as it generally does, before NOV
inc ont. then all things will be serene,
and the damage done will be OF the MIN
mum size. In short, "don't hOller till
you're hurt"
old rivermen and ra;lroaders are
prophesying a duplication of the great
! St Patrick's day flood of 1860 AT Brad
ford and i'm the surrounding country the
snow is from four to five feet in depth.
From Warren southwark along the Al
leeheny river, the average depth is thirty
inches. This is solid snow, packed by
the occasional rains Of the winter. IN
the Allegheny river there are many
nlaces where the water is frozen solidly
to the bottom of the stream. Between
this city and Pit,sburg there are gorges
,hiriv-fiye feet in height. In many
nlaces the ice has been forced out Of the
river and extends to the railroad grade

An embarrassment Of riches, It
might be said, is a condition which the
isthmian canal commission faces in the
shape of numerous plans for the build
ing Of the Panama canal. At the pres
ent time there are six distinct plans
for the construction of the big water
way between the two oceans, and the
commission will certainly have a
wealth Of material from which TO de-
tCtminc the most feasible course. 1t
may come as something of a surprise
to the general public to be told that
tie plan for digging the canal has still
to be decided upon, but such is the
case The ten million dollars which
have been spent since congress as

feasible and quickest type of canal to

The ethnologist tells us that the

Those early Russians lived under the

the government of a city, whose or

ninth century a Scandinavian band.
under a chief named Rurik, invaded
Russia and founded the first monarchy
in that country. Princes of the house
of Rurik received inheritance of the
fourishing cities, and each created for
himself a kingdom; the country, in a
sense, divided. yet not yielding entire
