Foust of Altoona. Over five hundred
samples of oysters have been lifted IL
Allegheny, Washington, Westmoreland
Cambria, Blair, Beaver, Lawrence, Mer
GER, Venango and Erie counties. TIL,
hundred or more samples lifted in Pitts
burg and Allegheny markets were sale
to be pure, in Erie and Lawrence coun'
ties the oysters were preserved with boz
racic acid.
The postoflice will introduce new
style of domestic money orders and ad.
vises, beginning Nov. l5. Circulars
showing models of the new form are now
going out from the Office of the first AZ.
sistant postmaster general. One distinc-
tive feature of the new form is coupon
with marginal check. The money order
also gives the name of the remitter as
well as the payee. There has been COM
plant of late from different parts of the
country of raised money orders, and
some large losses on this account have
new form will prove an eiTectusl check to
swindling operations of this character.
From local appearances the state leg
islature has been too slow in devising
and enforcing adequate game protection.
Last year hunters from Pittsburg and
New Castle spent weeks between this
city and Grand Valley, slaughtering
grouse. They were carried away by
hundreds. A cold wet spring followed
and few young birds were hatched. The
result is scarcity unparalleled in the
experience of Titusville sportsmen. 1t
is impossible to kill grouse at such a rate
and still leave good shooting. The pres
ent law may avenge some of the crimes
but years will be required to do TIT
tusville Herald. Same story everywhere.
"A new corn husker, perhaps the first
one in this section, was set up by Ma
chine Agent Bromley, and did consider
able work last Saturday on batch of
corn for Squire Canield. The husker is
fed like threshing machine, the corn,
fodder and all, going through and COM
ing out husked in good shape, while the
fodder is completely shredded and blown
into bin or NOW. Mr.. Bromley has
sold the machine to John Hinderer, of
Green township, who has already large
number of farmers on his list, enough to
keep him busy for several weeks. The
speed of the machine is about so bushels
per hour, and under the most favorable
conditions will turn out more than that.
The Crary Construction Company, of
Binghamton. N. Y, are the contractors
for the construction of the big tunnel in
Piney township, this county, for the
Franklin Il Clearfeld Railroad Company
and are pushing the work on the tunnel
as rapidly as possible. 1t is said that it
will require about year and half 10
complete the tunnel referred to. Waltz
IL Reece, railroad contractors, OF Shippen-
vile, Clarion county, have contract with
the Franklin and Clearfield Railroad
Company for building considerable por-
tion of the road in this county. Great
activity is exhibited by officials, con-
tractors and employees of the company in
getting everything in readiness for rush
ing the work. - Clarion Democrat.
distributing stations for AntiToxin,
the recognized diphtheria cure and pre-
ventative, have been established at Bo-
wards Pharmacy, and at Dunn IL Full
toms drug store, Tionesta. We under
stand the following places throughout
the county have also been named by DR..
Dixon of the State Board of Health: West

toxin is intended only for those who are
unable to buy it themselves, and orders
for it must be accompanied by physi-
clans certificate setting forth the fact that
parties procuring it are not able to pur-
chase it.
-One of Tionesta's best institutions for
all concerned is the planning mill of j. j.
Landers, which has been kept buzzing
since it first started up. 1t
is no longer necessary now, when in need
of a batch of flooring, siding or dressed
lumber of any kind to send away from
home for it, causing days of delay,
freight bills and other vexations too nu-
merous to mention. Mr.. Landers also
furnishes much other building material,
such as lime, cement, brick, etc., making
it convenient for all who have need of
such to procure it right at home, saving
the annoyance of freight charges, dray
age, and the like, The planning mill is
all right, and it is gratifying to know that
the enterprise is having large run of
patronage not only from our townspeople
but the surrounding country as we'll.
Thomas Lambert, of Pittsburg, and
John Foster, of Ttusville, were hunting
near Enterprise last Thursday when both
were shot in peculiar manner, and as
result the former will lose the sight of his
right eye. Early in the morning their
dog started pheasant, and both men took
a shot at the bird. They were facing each
other and the pheasant was between them.
A single pellet from Fosters gun pene-
trated Lambert's eyelid and passed
through his eyeball, Foster received
part of the charge of Lambert's gun in
his hand and one pellet of No. 6 shot is
imbedded firmly beneath his scalp, but
he was not seriously injured. Mr.. Lam
bert was taken to Titusville at l o'clock
and DR.. w. G. Johnston, who attended
his injury, said that he would lose the
