Fire Insurance companies have to be
of multi-million proportions in these
days in order to have surplus large
enough to bridge the chasms of great con-
nagrations and heavy losses.

proud one-never having represented any
other than the best most conservative,
honestly managed fire insurance com
pauies doing business. Behold the rec
ord: never had company fail never
lost dollar for customer; so that today
our customers may know absolutely that
their policies are good. We have been no.
titled that our companies will pay every
dollar of their loss in San Francisco.
Depend upon it that we represent the
largest, the oldest, the best and most hon
orable fire insurance companies in the
world, accompanies whose contracts al
as good as government bonds. BE GER

Two Houses Burned at Mayburg.

On Thursday last the quiet of our little
town was abruptly broken by the alarm
of fire. The fire was discovered to be in
the house occupied by Geo. VanValln.
Although heroic efforts were made 20
stay the flames they proved futile and
the fire progressed with astonishing ra-
pidity, reaching the house occupied by
Frank Rayhorn, and in a very few min
utes both houses were enwrapped in
flames. The heat from the burning
buildings was almost uncomfortable and
for time it looked as though the entire
town might be wiped out. Had the wind
not been favorable no power could have
saved the town from destruction. The
town is well supplied with water plugs
and other facilities for fighting fire, but
unfortunately tho mill was shut down
for repairs and there was not sufficient
steam to work the large pump properly.
This is rather unfortunate for Mr.. Ray
horn. Just two years ago he was burned
out, saving little or nothing of his house
hold goods. James Mack and wife, who
were staying with his brother-in-law, Mr..
VanValin, were also considerable losers,
saving only the clothing they had on.
Mr.. VsnValin lost most all of his house,
hold goods also. The buildings were the
property Of the Company, and no doubt
will be quickly replaced. The loss will
probably exceed $1,000, with no insur-
ance. Snow BALL.

Pretty Social Event for Mrs. Helena
Aspin.

A pleasant event was given last evening
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. E. Fl. Will
liams, of North Drake street, by the
members of the Camping Club in honor
of one of their number, Mrs. Helena AS
pin, whose marriage TO James j. Landers,
of Tionesta, will take place shortly. Mr..
Landers was also guest of honor at last
nights affair. The party was in the ma
ture of a shower to Mrs. Aspin and many
gifts Of a miscellaneous character were
bestowed upon her. About thirty-five
were present and the evening was So
cially spent.
Music was one of the attractive features,
the orchestra giving several selections.
A clever number which had been ar
ranged by Mrs. Williams was sung by a
quartet comprising Miss Allen, Mrs.
Coleman, Mr.. Williams and Mr.. Jepson.
The selection was a play upon many of
the popular songs of the day particularly
appropriate to the occasion. Fine re-
freshments were served.
Mr.. Landers is prominent lumberman
of Tionesta and is also extensively en-
gagged in oil producing, being associated
with Price IL Landas of this city in the
latter business. ss.-Titusville Herald, 10Th.

For San Francisco Relief.

The Forest County National Bank has
been asked to receive subscriptions for
the relief OF sufferers by the San Francis
co horror on behalf of the Pennsylvania
Branch of the American National Red
Cross, and has expressed its willingness
to act in such capacity, and 10 transmit
all moneys to Mrs. A. j. Cassatt, treasurer
OF the society, 5th and Chestnut street,
Philadelphia. The bank will receipt for
all sums contributed and forward same
promptly to the Red Cross society. 1t
would seem unnecessary to make more
than mere mention of this fact in order
to start the subscriptions. The appalling
condition of the people of San Francisco
surely appeals to benevolent humanity.
All classes are suffering for the necessi-
ties Of life and doubtless will continue to
for some time to come. The American
heart has responded nobly to the call of
distress that has come out of this lament
able disaster, and yet the need is very
great. Let the response continue to be
prompt and generous.

Death of Mrs. KrOtZer.

Thursday evening last Mrs. VIM. f.
Blum was summoned by telegram to the
bedside of her only sister, Mrs. Elizabeth
Krotzer, near Kittanning, Pa, whose
serious illness resulted in her death on
the following evening, April 20, 1906.
Deceased was the wife of David Krotzer,
aud was we'll known to many of our
people, the family having resided at
Neilltown, this county, number OF
years, and had frequently visited in Tio-
nesta. Mrs. Krotzer was born in Clarion
county, July 80, 1874, and was united in
marriage with David Krotzer, at Frank
lin, in 1866, and six children resulted
from this union, three of whom with the
husband survive as follows: Mrs. M.
l.. Bowser, of Applewold; Albert, OF
Sharpsburg, and Robert, of Kittanning.
Death resulted from a second paralytic
stroke which occurred on Sunday, April
10Th, the first one having occurred on
Memorial Day, 1905. There was great
hope for her recovery but as the week
wore on she gradually grew weaker and
death ensued at the time noted. Early in
infancy Mrs. Krotzer was baptized and
from then has been a highly honored
member of the Lutheran church, and st.
Johns congregation Of Kittanning in her
death loses devoted and earnest worker.
Besides her husband and children, one
brother, Rev. Christ Oehischlaeger, OF
Richmond, Virginia, and one sister, Mrs.
Blum, of Tionests, survive.
The funeral services were held at the
Krotzer home on Monday afternoon AT
half past two o'clock. Interment at the
Kittanning cemetery.

Letter TO L. j. Hopkins,
7IoneStd, Pa.

DEAR SIR:-How easy it is to get things
mixed! This comes from our agents,
Messrs. b. X. and G. w. Sickle, Rocka-
way, N. j.
A Rockaway man was going to paint
two houses, year ago, lead-and-oil.
They induced him to paint one Devoe, by
agreeing to bear any loss it might bring
him.
One of his houses chalked-off, and be
called for a settlement.
The boot was on the wrong foot. Lead
and.oil is the chalker; not Devoe. 1t was
a mistake, not bunco.
If Devoe chalked-off as lead-and-oil
does, it wouldn't stand ghost of a chance
in the market.
Yours truly,

Contracts have been awarded by
the Northern Pacific for the construc-
tion of 65 miles of road between Pasco
and Riparia. Work has not been
started, but is expected to start short
ly.
The grading and construction was
SO let that it is practically continua-
tion of the north bank enterprise, the
firm of Simms & Shields getting the
contract and then sub-letting it.
The first 25 miles were given to
Wren & Greenough, and the balance
to Cochran, Winter & Smith. The
latter is virtually three firms, for
those represented are Cochran q

that line is to be moved jointly by the
o. r. g. N. and Northern Pacific.
The Hill road from Riparia will be
along the north bank Of the Snake riv-
er, and with the completion of it and
the original north bank Lline on the
Columbia water grade will be OBJ

TWO YEARS FOR TETON
Intention is to Advertise for Bids 70
Scheme Next Fall.

Intention is to Advertise for Bids for
Scheme Next Fall.
The following statement of the
status and expectations regarding the
Tieton reclamation project is from
the Yakima Republic:
T. A. Noble is down from the Tie
ton basin to confer with his superior
at the reclamation office here. Mr..
Noble has charge of the engin-
eering crew on the Tieton canal.
There are 20 men working under him
on the canal survey aud Ave men at
Dumping lake laying out reservoir
sites.
The crew under Mr.. Noble is max
ing final aud definite survey for the
route to the Tietou canal. They will
complete the work some time this
summer. At present they are running
the line of the canal through the Tie
ton canyon. Great deal of care is re-
quired in running this part of the line.
There will be one tunnel 5000 feet
long and several small ones, along this
part of the canal.
The government will spare no time
in making the Tieton canal one of the
best il the country. When it is fin
ished there will be little expense at
tached for its maintenance. There
will be no fumes, if it is possible to
avoid them. Tunneling will be re-
sorted to along the Tieton canyon
where fumes would be built and &C.
ment will te used wherever it is
found necessary.
1t is the plan of the department. to
have everything in shape so that the
bids can be called for in Septem ber
or October. Construction will begin
some time during the fall months. 1t
will require about two years to COM
plete the canal from the time work is
commenced. This will insure water
for the land iu the spring of 1908.
The reclamation service is now do
ing the preliminary work for the con-
struction of reservoirs at Gle Elum
and other lakes at the head of the
Yakima river. Considerable land has
been purchased around the lake from
the individual owners and other plans
are being carried out preparatory to
the great amount of reclamation work
that will eventually be done in the
Yakima Valley.

Northwest EncamE ment to BE Held at
That Place From May 8 to 27.
The annual encampment of the
Seventh Day Adventists of the North
west will be held at Milton this year

ligious services, lectures and literary
and musical programs.
This is one of the most enjoyable
occasions in the calender of the Ad-
ventists of the northwest. Members
OF the church from all parts of the
northwest will drive to Milton to at
tend the campmeeting and general
church reunion to be- held. Not only
delegates, but all members who can
leave home, attend these meetings.

yielded. His name was then proposed
to the committee which adopted it, as
a matter of course for it was waiting
for Jonathan to give the word. The
hand of Jack Matthews, ousted United
States Marshal aud deposed republican
boss, was seen in, the game. Early on
the morning of the second day the long
and well-fed form of Ike Patterson
hove on the scene. He came from the
direction of Matthews Office. He
went and came again and then again.
He looked disinterested, but he talked
in the ears of some of the troubled
brethren and they heard him. Steel is
an old Simon man, and the Mitchell
contingency didn't want him; so he
was shelved. Patterson is collector of
Customs and Westgate wants the job.
Patterson didn't want to see Westgate
made chairman, but Withycombe in
sisted and the boys thought that he
ought to have something to say "be-
cause, you know said they, "he's
got fight on his hands," And sure
he has.
Thus ends the first chapter in the
organization of the Republican party
along new and harmonious lines. The
Steel men are just little sore, al
though they smile. That's in the
game. The old Matthews crowd ism t
al together jubilant, for they didn't
get what they wanted. Simon was
turned down. Bourne wasn't the hap
piest man in the world, but he didn't
cry, for he will have his hand in the
game, big, because he has a sack and
money talks

MINDS SHATTERED

FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE.
People in Oakland Hospital who Can.
not Recall Names or Where
They Lived.

Many waits of the great San Fran
cisco holocaust have drifted into the
sheltering walls of the receiving hos
pitai at Oakland.
Every day several cases are treated,
and while numbers of these resolve
themselves into temporary cases of
hysteria, some show that the memory
of the catastrophe will never leave
their disordered minds.
One case which is marked with
pathetic heroism, is that of Miss Tina
Falk, % years Of age, who is an inn
beetle. Her mother, Mrs. Birdie
Falk, at the risk of her own life,
saved her from the burning home at
ti>st and Harrison streets, San Fran
cisco, aud led her gently through fall
ing ruins to the ferries aud thence to
Oakland.
The afflicted girl was lodged in the
receiving hospital for lack of better
asylum.

maitre young French woman

police last night, her mind apparent

her accidents had fled.
After nights rest she was able to
remem ber her name, and the fact that,
in the midst of the horrors of the
earthquake and fire, she has become
separated from her husband and three
children. She is still unable to re-
member her old address, and is being
detained until her intellect becomes
strong enough to aid her out of her
dilemma.
