Friends of Snowden Kerr, the Oil
City monument man who is well known
here, will be sorry TO learn that his
mother was perhaps fatally injured at her
home In Franklin few days ago. She
accidentally backed into a stairway and
fell to the bottom OF the stairs. In the
fall one OF her ribs was loosened from the
spinal column and penetrated the lungs.
AS Mrs. Kerr is nearly so years old
there is but slight hope, If any, that she
will survive.

The boys under the management of
| W. II. Brazee have organized ball team
and will endeavor to develop a good
home team. Their first game was played
here Saturday with Walnut Bend, the
home team winning IL to 5. The game
was a good one and we'll worth seeing.

battery work for Tionesta. This after

Lewis Guseman of Meadville, who
was arrested in that city last Thursday
on the charge of stealing horse from
Dauln Brothers, Oil City liverymen, a
week ago, confessed and implicated an
other man from Erie county, but who
has not been captured yet. The author
tiles believe Guiseman is not in his right
mind. He is a Russian jew and seems
to be perfectly crazy over horses. He
never abuses horse, but would feed one
and go hungry himself The Daum horse
had not been recovered at last accounts.
Residents of Fryburg Clarion county
not far from the borders of this county,
we're notified by visitor there Tuesday
that bear and two cubs had been seen a
a few miles away from town and between
II and the river Sunday. The three bears
were evidently on foraging expedition
and had visited the farm of the informant
and were "snooping" around his pig pen
when he discovered them. de went into
the house for his Winchester, but the
beasts had taken the alarm and returned
to the woods, going in the direction OF
Fryburg.
If anyone tells you this community
cannot "put it all over" California in the
propagation OF straw berries tell him "he's
another" Last week the REPUBLICAN
was favored with liberal sample of the
luscious fruit from two different friends,
Mrs. w. j, Mckee of river hill, Tionesta
township, and r. @. Heath of Starr.
Some of these specimens were so large
that they had to be halyed and quartered
in order to make them eatable, and in
flavor and juiciness they were equal to
the best of them. Many thanks, friends,
raise fine strawberries.
