WALTERS.

Daniel Walters, one of the Oldest and
most favorsbly known residents of Tio-
nesta, and veteran of the Civil War,
died at his home here on Tuesday, July
81, 1914, at l0:l5 p. m. Mr.. Walters had
been in failing health for some months,
but the immediate cause of death was
muscular heart disease. The deceased
had been confined to his home for some
weeks, gradually growing weaker until
the end at the above time, his last ap-
pearance being for the ceremonies on
last Memorial Day, when with others of
the old veterans he was conveyed by
auto to beautiful Riverside cemetery to
participate in the services 10 memory of
strife. Daniel Walters was son of David
and Mary (Nally) Walters, original set
tiers of Newmansville, Clarion county,
being born at that place August 26, 1886,
and thus was aged II years, 10 months
and 25 days. EARLY in life he followed
lum mbering on the Clarion river, and on
Coon creek, Green township, this county,
with his brothers, George and James
Walters. On October 9, 1862, answering
to the immortal Lincoln's call, he enlist
ed as member of Co. b, 10th Regi-
ment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, with
Henry Shots as captain. Going to the
front he served his country faithfully,
being promoted to a corporal for bravery.
On account of disabilities incurred in the
service he was honorably discharged at
Harrisburg on July 20, 1868. After re-
turning from the war he came to Tio-
nesta, where, when his health permitted.
he worked at his trade of stonemason
OF recent years he has been interested in
the production OF oil. On October |,
1867, he married Miss Rozlla Proper,
eldest daughter of the late Mr.. and Mrs.
John A. Proper, who with the following
children survives him; Miss Efiie Wal
ters, at home; Mrs. NJ. c. Myers, of Man
niDgton, W. Va, and Mrs. Joseph w.
Landers, of Tionesta. He is also sur
vived by one brother, James Walters,
abh Wy Ouo Jboophiho "
ters, both OF Newmansville; also by four
grandchildren. He was babtized and
confirmed in the Walters Lutheran
church at Newmsnsville, early in life,
and when the end came was fully recon-
ciled and ready for the great change.
Daniel Walters was the very soul of
honor, was of the best type of citizen, a
man who had many staunch friends and
no enemies. He lived at peace with all
men, being quiet and unsssuming, but
true as steel to his friends. He was pre-
eminently home man; his highest wish
and desire was for the comfort and hap
piness Of his family, and no sacrifice was
too great for him to make to contribute
to their welfare. Not many of his type
of men are left upon the scenes aud none
will be longer remembered than this
sterling friend and good neigh Dor. The
funeral services will be held at the family
! home Friday afternoon at two O'Clock.

The Venango License Question.

The State Superior Court on Wednes-
day handed down three decisions on ap-
peals from lower courts, relative to the
granting of liquor licenses. In each of
the cases the decision of the lower court
was upheld. Two of the cases. one from
Venango and the other from Indiana
county, related to the refusal by the
judges to grant licenses. The third case
was from Clarion county, and sought to
reverse the judges of that court On two
hotel licenses which he had granted. The
decisions would appear to be contradic-
tory, but they uphold in each case the
principle that the granting Of licenses
rests entirely with the discretion Of the
Judge; no alone shall decide to whom they
may or may not be granted, Whether
the Legislature in framing the law in
tended to place this power in the hands OF
the judges, or whether the principle has
been read into the Act, does not appear in
the report of the finding.
PUBLIC opinion and the manner in
which the law is construed by the lower
court will probably differ. To most peo-
pie it will appear as putting too much
power in the hands of single person.
1t is an unpleasant position in which to
place judge, as, If we have read the re-
port of the finding Alright, his sentiment

actions.-Oil City Derrick.
