Nineteen Years Ago.

The winter of 1890, nineteen years ago,
was very much such winter as the pres
ent one, only more so, according to those
who remember, backed up by the pub
lished records. In that year the little
peep frogs were doing stunts in the latter
part of February. A large amount of
lumber had been RATED ON Tionesta
creek, and on the Sd day ofMarch sever al
Allegheny fleets left here for the lower
markets, but were compelled to site up"
on account of snow-slush in the river,
yet all got safely to Pittsburg before the
month ended. 1t was in Ma ch that year
that the ice was harvested, there having
been none up to that time, and the crop
was taken out of the mill race at the
Lawrence q Smearbaugh mill across the
creek. To give one a better idea of
weather conditions at that time, we here
with reproduce All article which appeared
in the REPUBLICAN of March 5, 1890:
A tramp ambled into our Office one
sultry afternoon recently, and dropping
into doze had this dream: This thing
beats us; cant figure it out at all; it might
as well be a Chinese puzzle or sentence
in Volspuk. Here it is the last of Feb
ruary and winter not begun yet; the grass
Is actually growing and the ground 20
full of water that it is dangerous to turn
the cattle out to Craze for fear they will
disappear through the sod. Here's court
week cut right off before it had begun; a
thunder storm last night that ought TO
belong to the middle of next summer; the
peach crop In Delaware reported so far
along that new peaches will be in order
before new potatoes. Lnd watermelons
ahead of green peas. 1t takes the ambl-
tion all out of one so far as raising early
garden stuff is concerned. Itdoesn't seem
to leave much for ones ambition to grow
or feed upon. The first suckers of next
springs catch we're caught last January.
But after all it isn't so much the present
that troubles us as the hereafter. Now,
for instance, if the thing runs along as il
is the Summer will sit right down on
Spring and If Winter attempts to linger in
the lap of Spring, we'll have Wiuter
sprawling around over Summer, and
roses and snow, and ice-cream and uls-
ters, and even If winter retires decently,
or keeps retired, Fall will fall into
line somewhere along about the time po-
tatoes ought to be hoed; Winter, Spring,
Summer, Autumn disposed of, and about
five months of the year left to do some-
thing with, and nothing to use it for.
Time is money. $50 days worth no more
than Confederate script. The world seems
out of joint. If science is going to do
anything for us we are ready to have it
done right along. We know the thing as
we'll as anybody when it comes along,
but we want to know how the wind up
will be. If science can point with unerr-
ing finger to the end we'd like her to
show her hand.

The Gurus Hawgs.

Evening Post of January 30th published
the famous hog story of our Glib Morgan.
1t may be interesting to GIBBS friends to
know that he is yet one of many old
soldiers in the National Military Home
at johnson City, Tennessee. The story
follows:
"They's some parts of that Arkansaw
country where the hills is sleeper than

The Utopia minstrel clubs entertain

reception which the well-pleased au-

purely home-talent affair, being COM
posed exclusively of Oil City's best young

and outing than for any financial success
which they expected to reap. Their cho-
ruses were fine and evidenced a number
of very fine voices among the member

The jokes of the endmen were original,
well put aud all of them quite ludicrous
and mirth-provoking, yet with an entire
absence of cosrseness, such as is often
employed by minstrel troups. A very
respectable show throughout, in fact, and
deserving of encouragement by the peo-
pie of Oil City.
