F. b. Robbins, of Tidioute, was in
Tionesta Monday on his way to Kellett-
vile. Mr.. Robbins is the capable in.
structor of the Kelettville band, having
entered into three-year contract with
that organization, and under his careful
leadership the band has been making
marvellous advancement. He will short
ly remove his family 10 Kellettville, and
in connection with his other duties, will
probably engage in the mercantile busi-
ness.

"A Chicago man had wife who would
not live with him, so for ten years the
couple worried along instead of being
happy. Then the man went on journey
and body was found which was thought
to be his and the wife, having heard the
funeral Grafton, saw that he was a man
without peer on this bereaved earth.
At that moment in walked the man, not
having heard he was dead. Whereupon
the wife loved him and took him back.
The moral is that If we could only die
occasionally we would have more friends.

Squire S. S. Garfield is engaged in
an experiment this spring that will be
watched with interest by our farmers aud
stock raisers, the experiment being an
attempt to raise alfalfa, the western fod-
der. A piece of ground about an acre in
extent and located on the flats near his
livery barn, is being prepared for the ex-
pertinent. No pains will be spared to
make II success. 1t is said that to start
or grow alfalfa in this part of the country
some of tie native soil from a locality in
which alfalfa grows is needed, and Mr..
Garfield Will probably have some shipped
here. A peck of seed will be sowed to
the acre. We hope the experiment will
prove a success, for alfalfa is claimed TO
he the best fodder grown anywhere.
"A pleasant party took place at the
home of w. A. Burns, on Fourth street,
Youngsville, Pa, May Is. 1906, the occa-
sion being the sixty-second birthday of
Comrade Burns. About fifteen of the
old veterans were present and the eve-
ming was spent in music, singing, etc.,
one of the novel features being waltz by
Comiade Deichert, aged 81, and Marie
aged II. A delicious lunch
con was served and at late hour the
comrades departed, leaving behind as a
token of their esteem beautiful rocker.
Comrade Burns is former resident of
Forest county and is a charter member of
Eli Berlin Post, No. 500, of East Hickory,
Pa, to which Post he is still loyal. May
he live to enjoy many more birthdays.
"A "strike" is on at the Oil City hos
pital, all but three or four of the nurses
in that worthy institution having quit
their jobs until satisfactory adjustment
of their grievances can be had. They
are not asking for shorter hours nor
greater pay, but complain OF cruel and
conduct upon the part of
the superintendent or matron, and the
of the board of hospital di-
rectors to heed the complaints of the
nurses. The physicians, fourteen Of
them, are in sympathy with the nurses,
and have had under consideration the es
of an emergency hospital for
their patients, but the whole trouble will
probably be fixed up in a few days, the
State Board of Charities having been in
vited to lend its good offices in bringing
micability out of chaos. 1t is hoped
they will succeed, as any impairment of
the usefulness of this excellent institu-
ton would be little short of a calamity.
John Hinderer, worthy citizen of
Green township, was taken to the State
hospital at North Warren Thursday
last in the hope of restoring his
mind and health, which have been falling
for some months past. From melan-
choly state he had of late grown more or
less violent, and his wife, through her
attorney, S. d. Irwin, Esq, applied to
Judge Lindsey for the appointment of
commission in lunacy to investigate his
case, upon which the Judge appointed
DR.. F. J. Bovard, A. G. Brown, Esq, and
c. NJ. Arner. They found upon investi-
CATION Mr.. Hinderer's mind was affected
TO such an extent that he should have
expert attention, and the county commits
sioners removed him to the asylum as
noted. Mr.. Hnderer's farm is located
on the Tylersburg road about five miles
from Tionesta, where the most of his life
has been spent, and where he has always
been held in the highest esteem by his
neighbors, who hope for his speedy res
toration to health and happiness,
