Ground to Pieces Under Cars.

Oil City papers note very distressing
fatality which occurred Thursday night
last at the p. r. X. station at Frank lin,
the victim being Wayne Kahle, the 10.
year-old son Of John Wesley Kahle, OF
Oil City, Who is we'll known to many
Forest county people, and is brother
in-law of our townsman, S. NJ. Henry.
Very few facts regarding the acciden-
tai death of the young man have devel-
oped since the first news of the fatality
WAS known. The body was so badly dis
figured that it appeared to be that of a
man at least 30 years of age and the pub
lication of that as his age misled his rela-
tives. On Saturday morning, Mrs. Kahle,
the step-mother of the deceased, read in
the Derrick that cigar case marked with
the monogram "W. X" had been found
in the clothing and the fast that the youth
had not been home since Thursday
aroused her fears. Mr.. Kahle was i'll and
could not 60 to Franklin and sent w. X.
Dickey and James Shaw TO make inquir-
les. They viewed the body and at once
identified it and notified Oil City relatives.
Mr.. Kahle has learned that Wayne de-
sired to go to Franklin to see the opera
tion of horseclipping machine by means
ofa gas engine, as he was interested in a
similar invention. He requested Roland
Bailey to go with him on Thursday after
noon, but Roland refused. Wayne
worked about the yard pruning vines and
cleaning up the lawn until supper time
and in the evening met Bailey, but did
not say anything about going to Frank
lin. This was about o'clock in the eve-
ming and the last any Oil City friend saw
him alive. On Friday morning when he
did not come to break fast his father sup
posed that he had gone fishing and did
not become alarmed until late that night.
He then telephoned to friends and neigh
abouts OF his son. When Wayne left Oil
City he had about $40 in his pockets, but
when the body was found no money was
found in his possession.
The deceased was born at Fern, Pa,
July 28, 1886, and besides his father is
survived by two sisters, Claribel and |
Carmen, and two brothers, Jetty and
Loren. Mr.. Henry. of this place, uncle
ofthe unfortunate boy, accompanied by
Mrs. Henry and daughter Clare, attended |
the funeral. which was held Monday after
noon. The services were conducted by |
Rev. W. B. Roupe, pastor of the Oil City
F. NJ. church, assisted by Rev. b. f.
Felt, of Tionesta.

Letter TO C. A. LansOn,
YiOneSta, Pa.

DEAR SIR:-You understand grinding
wheat, buckwheat, rye, oats and corn.
We understanding grinding white lead
and white-zinc. The two sorts of grind
ing are not much alike. Very likely oats
and wheat behave very differently in the
mill, and you manage them differently
we know very little about your work;
don't need to; we'd rather depend on you.
But we paint your house and mill, and
out-buildings; perhaps you'd be glad 10
know about grinding paint; for some
people mix their paint with stick in a
tub.
We use lead Notwithstanding else.
And our zinc is as tough as your oats.
Tub mixers imagine they mix it. They
don't; they can't. Takes grinding to mix
lead-and-zinc.
They are both white; when are they
thoroughly mixed? Tub mixers don't
know it; but tub-mixed lead -and.zinc is
a streak of one alongside of streak of
the other.
We grind as you grind; and our paint
is lead-and-zinc ground together, mixed
intimately: it is neither lead nor zinc, but
leadand-zinc: the lead is lost, and the
zinc is lost: each lost in the other: both
lost in the mixture. Lead chalks aud
zinc peels; lead -and-zinc ground together
hang on and protect each other.
We take care of your mill outside; you
take care of it inside.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvoE & Co.

The Late L. L. VOckrOth.

Ernest Edward Vockroth was born in
Rahrda, Province of Hesse Cassel, Ger
many, April %, 1884, and died in the hos
pital at Oil City, April q, 1906 Four
weeks ago he was taken sick and his con-
dition rapidly became serious. In the
hope Of ultimate recovery he was taken
to the Oil City hospital and underwent an
operation, which at first promised to be
successful, but on last Wednesday after
noon he suffered a relapse and continued
to grow weaker until death brought re-
lease from his sufferings. In September,
1854, he left the home of his boyhood and
came to America, locating in Tionesta.
A year later he removed to Kansas, but
only remained there for about year,
when he returned to this place and pur-
chased the farm on German Hill where
he resided through the remainder of his
life. He was carpenter by trade and
many of the edifices in this vicinity are
substantial monuments to his skill as
master workman. In April 1859, he was
united in marriage to Martha Elizabeth
Bavendorf, who was a schoolmate of his
in their home village. For almost half
century they journeyed together, sharing
the priyation and toll of their early mar
ried life, and enjoying together the pros
perity oflater years. Besides his widow,
Mr.. Vockroth is survived by seven chill
dren: Christine and Albert, who reside at
home, Mrs. A. f. Ledebur, of Tionests,
Edward, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Mrs.
e. f. Youngk, of Williamsburg, Pa, Mrs.
Il. S. Blum. of German Fl ill, and George,
of Erie, Pc. Two sons, Martin and John,
died few years ago.
Mr.. Vockroth was one of the successful
and substantial citizens of this communi-
ty. He filled number of public Offices
in the township with great acceptability,
and was recognized by all who knew him
as man of honor and honesty. At the
organization of the Citizens National
Bank, of Tionesta, he was elected one of
the directors and held the position at his
death. In his youth he united with the
German Reformed church, but after COM
ing to this vicinity he united with the
Evangelical church, and remained faith
full Christian until he heard the voice of
the Master calling him home. In his
death the community, as well as the
family, have suffered loss which will be
keenly felt, but our loss is his gain. A
large concourse of friends and neighbors
gathered at his late home Monday at a.
m. and accompanied the remains TO the
Zuendel church, where appropriate SER
vices were conducted by Revs. w. o.
Calhoun and e. d. Mowrey. A quartet |
composed of Mrs. u. T. Shriver, Mrs. e.
w. Bowman and Linus Shriver and Har-
ry Bankhead furnished the music.

Sciatica Cured After Twenty Years of Tor
turc.
For more than twenty years Mr.. j. b.
Massey, of 1922 Clinton street, Minneap-
oils, Mimi, was tortured with sciatica.
The pain and suffering which he endured
during this time is beyond comprehen-
sion. Nothing gave him any permanent
relief until he used hamberlain's Pain
Balm. One application of that liniment
relieved the pain and made sleep and rest
possible, and less than one bottle has ef-
fected permanent cure. If troubled
with sciatica or rheumatism, why not try
a 25-cent bottle of Pain Balm and see for
yourself how quickly it relieves the pain?

Great Damage Caused to the Cuban
Tobacco Crop.

Great Damage Caused to the Cuban
Tobacco Crop.
The American charge de affairs at
Havana has reported to the State De
partment that the tobacco crop Of the
finest regions in Cuba is almost a total
loss, says the Washington Star. The
destruction is the result of torrential
rains, which will reduce the yield from
469,32S bales, the figures of 1905, to
less than 100000 bales for 1906. This
amount will in all probability be still
further reduced, as the acreage this
year is smaller than that Of the pre-
yious crop.
The effect of the torrential rains has
been to blight the seedlings, and the
next crop will be almost a fat fail
ure. AS it takes at least ITO days from
the planting Of the seed to the cutting
of the mature leaf, there will be a
long interval of distress and short
age.
The government has received appeals
for aid from many quarters, and pro-
poses series Of public works which
will give some relief to the workmen
thrown out Of employment and will
tend to control the rivers in case of
future floods and heavy rains.
The shortage in the supply Of the
tobacco leaf which is now assured will
affect prices to a considerable degree.
The market already has been strongly
Influenced, and a corresponding rise in
the price Of cigars must inevitably fol-
low. The American smoking public
will feel the increase in price before
the foreigner, owing to the fact that
the American consumer prefers the
green" cigar, while the Englishman,
German and Frenchman place a higher
value ON the seasoned" cigar In Eng
land and Germany it is possible, con-
sequently, to keep on hand large stocks
of cigars. The American importer pre-
fers a much smaller stock because of
the fact that he has superior and more
numerous advantages for obtaining new
supplies of the weed in a short time.
Furthermore, the enormous import duty
on cigars undoubtedly operates strong
ly in discouraging the American i'm
porter Of limited capital from laying
in a large stock Of cigars.

Alfred Bunker of Boston has become
famous, not because he has been a
schoolmaster forty-seven years, but be-
cause he has whipped 524 pupils of the
Quincy school during the last half year
of 1905. The school board has declared
that 1t was not necessary to whip a
single child, and Bunker is facing a
crisis. His pupils are hard set, being
largely Poles, Italians, Syrians, Arme-
mans and Jews, and the district is
of course, illiterate. Consequently, the
pupils of the Quincy school were with
out home influence for betterment
Their educating influences began when
they came into the school and ended
when they left it. Moreover, 1t was
peculiarly difficult to understand their
natures. The duty devolved upon the
principal and staff of the Quincy
school, first, to get close to these chill
dren of foreign birth or foreign parent
age; next, to keep them In order; next
to teach them the rudiments of knowl

Jack Mannix was coxswain of her. He
would give Jack drink. Leaving the
gate, he advanced to the edge of the
embankment, and, putting his head over,
called out to his friend. The breeze,
however, which was momentarily fresh

Mannix, hearing nothing, continued his
conversation. Gimblett was just drunk
enough to be virtuously indignant at this
incivility, and seating himself on the
