Woman Beat Two Men.

We suspect you'd like the tale, how a
woman beat two hardware dealers in Cir
ard, Pa.
Devoe salesman tried his best to get
those men to sell Devoe lead-and zinc in
that bright town; and failed. Reluctantly
took Mrs. e. r. Bowman, druggist.
They said they couldn't sell paint for
more than $l.25 gallon, MIS-, Bowman
can. She has sold about all the paint,
that has been sold there since.
She knew Devoe; had sold his artists
materials. Had some sense and force,
besides; she easily learned that cheap is
dear in paint, and told the people.
Mr.. Burt Young bought a gallon Devoe
for rooms that had always taken a gallon
of other paint; had half left.
Mr.. John Hanna, grocer, thought it ex-
pensive before he bought it; brought back
nearly half of his paint, and said it was
the cheapest job he ever had.
Mrs. Bowman reports universal salts
faction. So much for a'cheap- paint town
with bright woman in 1t.

The well of the Tionesta Gas Co. on the

the contractor, will now clean out a gas
well on the Adam Wagner farm and will
then drill well on the Bailey farm.
Sutley Bros. will drill two wells on the
McNutt farm, Harmony township, for

FISH AT CONEY HAVE
AN OLD HOME WEEK,
They Swarm UP to the Beach,
Begging to Be Caught and
Are Killed With Canes.

Coney Island is suffering from a rush
Of fist. to the beach. The remarkable
increase was noticed about a week ago
and since that time rod artists have
been focking to the shore. Catching them
with lines and nets grew too tame. and
last night they were killing them with
walking sticks,
You never saw anything like the
strings Of fish they have been bringing
home nights" said motorman on the
B. r. T. Most of the fish are of the
ling variety, but every class, with the
exception OF whales. is represented. I,
makes an awful mess for Us fellows
Some of those tough guys dress the
fish on the way home and leave heads
and tails on the car seats"
one hours catch last night consisted
of fourteen founders, twelve suckers
seven bluefish, dozen straightfron
cells, four devilled crabs, nine codfsl
cakes and two cans Of salmon.

Surprised the Father.

Surprised the Father.
TO say that Capt Fleming was SUR
prised Is putting II too mildly. Mrs.
Fleming died when the boy who Is
now trying to spend $4,000 on we'd
ding trip was only six months old and
the father had tried to be both mother
and father to him. After all these
years OF care and devotion II seemed
mighty hard to capt. Fleming that his
son should run away and get married
without his consent.
But after few hours reflection It
dawned on Capt. Fleming that the boy,
after all, was "a chip of the old block"
with his wrath entirely cooled, he
sent this message to Mrs. Frances
O'Neill. at Yonkers. the brides mother:
THE news of the marriage of your
daughter Claire to my son John was a
pleasant surprise to me this evening.
II gave me great happiness to know
that the wedding took place.
ut La extremely satisfactory to me to
realize that John has taken as a life
partner the young woman whom he
loves. and am proud because he mar
ried the girl he loves"
Through the cousin who had acted as
best man a meeting was arranged yes
terday between the clippers and Capt.
Fleming. They were ready to fall on
their knees in the accepted STYLE but 1t
wasn't necessary.
Mr. and Mrs. Fleming started for Lake
wood and before they return to make
their horne in New York they will take
a long Southern trip.
