ford county, died at his home Sunday, at

The Derrick warns local merchants
silver dollars-that seem to be in circu
lstion in Oil City. The same warning
applies in other localities and it is always
we'll to be on the your guard for these
'shovers of the queer"
The cold check put upon the weather
the first of the week came in the nick of
time, for the buds on the fruit trees, and
all other vegetation was making tco
rapid strides, and nsture seems to have
become aware of the tact. There is such
thing as getting too "kertiip," even in
inanimate things.
There are number of cases of ty-
phoid fever at Youngsville, Warren
county, and all the patients were en-
ployed at the new furniture works. 1t is
the opinion that the epidemic is due to
water from contaminated well which
the employees drank. One patient has
died, and one or two others are in crit
ical state.

put the question of Mr.. Bailey's election
and a unanimous vote was given in his
favor. Mr.. A. b. Kelly was named as
the delegate to present the call to Presby-
terry which meets at Big Run, Pa, on the
10th of this month.
A consignment Of seven dozen quail
from Wichita, Kansas, was received
Thursday afternoon by Charles l.. Smith
and today the birds were distributed in
the woods within radius of Is miles OF
this city. Some time ago paper was
circulated among sportsmen who con-
tributed literally towards the purchase
of the quail and it is to be hoped they
will be given an opportunity to propagate.
Blizzard. 1t is to be hoped this expert
ment will be a success, and if so the ex-
ample will be followed in other commun-
tiles. But if it were not for the severity
of our winters the importation Of quail
would not be necessary. The gamy little
birds do we'll in this latitude ordinarily,
but the rigors of winter are too much for
them.
