Edward Rogers Meets Tragic Death.

Edward Rogers, well kown In this CON-
munity where much OF his time has been
spent during the past ten or twelve years,
met harrible death on the p. r. h.
track below Eagle Rock station Wednes-
day night. His body was found about
$50 o'clock Thursday morning by three
young men who were returning from a
dance at Henry's Bend. Rogers had
been employed at w. J. James lumber
ing camp near Eagle Rock, and on
Wednesday morning secured permission
from the boss, Andrew Eckroth, to visit
Oil City, and had gone down on the
morning train and made some purchases
which included suit case. pair of shoes
aud some clothing. He also had invested
in some whisky. Returning from the
city in the afternoon he did not get off the
train at Eagle Rock, but came on to Tio-
nssta, remaining here till sos in the
evening when he boarded the train again,
getting of at Eagle Rock and walking
down the railroad track for some distance
in the direction of the numbering camp.
This seems to have been the last seen of
him alive. 1t is thought he intended GO
ing to the dance at Henry's Bend, but
finding he could not get across the river
had started book for his boarding place,
and was overtsken by northbound
freight train. The body was picked up
at point about midway between the
stations and had been dragged distance
of more than 500 feet. But two blood
drenched pieces of clothing remained up
on the mutilated emblsnce of human
form when 1t was removed by Section
Foreman Thurnquist and his men to the
freight depot to await the arrival Of the
coroner. The train had passed over him
cutting off his right arm and leg, and
disemboweling him and crushing his
head. A quart bottle of whiskey was
found unbroken between the lies near
where the train had first struck him.
While in Tionests he tried to get whisky
but was refused at the bars. Rogers
body was taken to 0senider's uudertsk-
ing rooms at Oil City and prepared for
burial, and sent to his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. James Rogers, residing near Gill
foyle, Forest county, was notified. His
brother, Joseph Rogers went to Oil City
Friday and brought the remains to this
station whence they were taken overland
to the home OF his parents for burial.
The deceased was aged "a years. He was
married several years ago but had seps-
rated from his wife some time ago. His
two children, a daughter aged lS, and q
son aged IL years, make their home with
their grand parents at Gilfoyle. Five
brothers and three sisters also survive.
Friends of the dead man state he often
spoke of his children, and but recently
said he intended TO "cut out the booze"
on their account. He had promised to go
to Gilfoyle, later in the month, and spend
the Fourth with them.
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1911-06-14

The United States Senate has adopted
the resolution providing for an amend
ment to the Federal constitution for the
election of Senators by direct vote of the
people, but with an amendment provid-
ing for Federal supervision of elections.
When the resolution passed the House
this amendment was not in it, so that it is
likely there is yet some question as to its
final adoption. However, it is believed
the resolution will ultimately prevail, az
public sentiment in its favor is too strong
to be longer ignored.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored 10 its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inlamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
