Again we wish to remark that there are some wooden side walks in this place that need attention badly. The ADVANCE ARGUS leads in local and county news. Don't take our word for it, examine for yourself. The Independent Band wish to thank the Euterpean Society and Mandoline Club for their kind assistance at the concert. The juvenile band is doing some faithful practicing and is getting along nicely.

There are thirteen pieces in the band. Several of our marksmen had a glass ball shoot, Tuesday afternoon. The best score was made by T. F. Black, 18 out of 20.

The establishment of the new mail route between Sharon and Hartford, by way of the new post-office, Welclon, is said to be an assured fact. The third annual banquet of the Crawford county Young Men's Republican Club was held at Meadville, last Thursday, April 16, and was a lion. John Dalzell was present. Hamblm, Sons Co. are rebuilding their Fairbanks Hay Scale, and making it as good as when first built.

It has done duty, in front of their office on Canal street, for sixteen years. The open season for protected fish in this is as follows: Trout, April 15 to July 15; salmon, April 15 to July 15; bass, May 30 to January pike, June I to December carp, September I to May i. Our Sheakleyville correspondent is the authority for the statement that there are twelve men in that town who do not use tobacco in any form. Considering the size of the place this is a good record. A meeting of the resident members of the Alumni Association of Thiel College will be held Friday evening, 8 o'clock, at the residence of Prof.

Miller, for the transaction of special business. A full attendance is requested. The Meadville school board has decided to introduce sewing in the schools of that place, and it is a good idea Unless self-threading needles are used in the boy's department there'll be a "right smart" of time wasted. The Lake Shore fast mail collided with a passenger train at Kipton, Ohio, Saturday afternoon, instantly killing two engineers and six postal clerks and injuring others. The mail train was running at a highirate of speed.

The State Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has arrested a number of farmers in Chester county for dehorning cows. The agents of the society report some atrocious barbarities in the dehorning process. The smallest, of nil the States, Rhode Island, has the largest population per square mile, or persons. The figures of the last census show that if the whole Union was as densely populated it would contain 945,766,800 'inhabitants. April 15 was the last day for the unsecured creditors of Delamater Co, to accept the proposition to settle on a 50 per cent, basis, but tlie time lias been extended to Saturday, April 25th.

Seven- eighths of the creditors have accepted the terms and it is to be hoped the rest will, as it is undoubtedly the best thing under the circumstances. Butler has a club composed of atheists, infidels, free thinkers, unbelievers, or whatever they style themselves, and a woman lecturer was announced to speak before them two nights this week. The club, we are told, have experienced a great deal of trouble in securing a hali or rooms. As fast as the owners found out their objects they refused to negotiate. Mrs.

Carl Buck heard a mm walking on the back porch about midnight, Friday night and awakened Mr. Buck who captured the intruder, brought him down town, and gave him over to the police. He was not suspected of being a thief but was decidedly in liquor. He was put in the lockup on that charge. His name was Wade and hailed from Hartstown.

Three arrests for drunkenness were made last week. J. H. Matson was arrested, Saturday, for peddling without a license. Justice Loutzenhiser fined him $2 and costs.

Officer Hamor is engaged in the commendable work of suppressing the use of bad language on the streets and is meeting with success One arrest was made for this offence last week. A fine, black horse with a white face was found dead on the Mercer Joseph about three miles from Greenville, Monday morning. A saddle was found in a fence corner near by. The horse was still warm when found and had the appearance of being hard ridden. It is believed that the horse was stolen and its death caused by hard riding.

An odor, anything but pleasant, has been lately arising from a well in Third Ward. A few days ago a man was engaged to clean the well and this was all he found, to-wit: One dog, one cat, two chickens and one ham of meat The well was not well enclosed and it is surmised that the dog was making away with the ham, a fierre struggle ensued, and like the famous Brien O'Linn and wife, both fell in and met death together. There was a large attendance at the Demorest contest, Tuesday evening, and is reported as being a fine affair. Among all the contestants there was not a poor recitation. The judges, Hon.

E. Gillespie, Prof. J. E. Morris and Dr.

J.T. Shutt, gave the first prize to Miss Estelle the second to Frank Jackson and third to Arthur Jones. The class reflected great credit on their training, as it was apparent that they had been carefully drilled. The music of the evening was very much enjoyed. So far as we have examined the matter we are in favor of th movement to have Greenville divided into four wards, giving us another pulling place.

There are too many voters the Second Ward and at presidential or gubernatorial elections, the eTtction board are kept up nearly all night counting the votes and with no extra compensation. At the last gubernaton.il election, a total of 329 vote's was cast for Pattison and for Delamater In the ist and 2nd Wards, 223 and votes were cast, respectively. In Sharon the vote by wards range'd from 100 to 261. The Second Ward has 68 more votes than the largest ward in Sharon, 115 more than the average ward of Sharon, 105 more than the largest ward of Mercer, 134 mO re than the entire vote of Grove City and 26 more than that of West Middlesex and Fredonia combined. The average ward in Greenville is 261 Making the 2nd and 3rd, three precincts would give an average vote of 187, or dividing the whole town into four wards, the average would be 195 In either case the wards would still be larger than the average voting precinct of the county, including the Prohibition vote, which was not included in the above calculations, owing to insufficient data.

The matter is worthy of consideration. A number of Greenville young men are trying to save money by the new pocket savings banks holding $5 in 10 cent pieces. The "bank," which is in the form of a short steel tube, cannot be opened after the first dime is put the bank contains $5 A New Castle financier objects to the plan for these reasons "It is really a losing scheme for the man who thus attempts to save his lo-cent pieces, for he has to pay 25 cents for the liitle toy, then put in another 75 cents worth of labor in insetting the dimes. Thus he is 50 cents in the hole, it costing him Is.50 to save $5, whereas if he would put a 5s bill in a savings bank where hooks are kept, in one year it would amount to This would be 75 cents difference in the two schemes." The Philadelphia dailies note the death of Hugh E. Mackin, at one time Assemblyman from that city Mackin, or "Hughey," as he was called at Harrisburg, was a witty Irishman and the wag of the House.

The writer recalls an in cident which happened in the session of '83. Sponsler, the flowery orator, of Perry, concluded a speech with the Latin sentence: "Vox Populi, Vox Dei." Mackin wagered "Al." Crawford that he could not translate it. Crawforil bet that he could and being asked to prove it, gave it this rendering "My God My God Why hast thou forsaken me With the remark by Mackin that he was not aware before that Crawford was a Latin scholar, the money was paid over. The interest in the Demorest contests seems unabated if the announcement of future contests is a criterion. A junior contest, in which contestants must be 10 to 13 years of age, is to be held soon, and another, a senior contest, is announced.

Several more contestants are wanted in each. Those who receive silver medals may enter the gold medal contests, one ol which will be held here in June, and two in other parts of this county. Those wishing particulars should address Miss Adda Burch, of this place, who is superintendent of this work in the county. Now that the season of live stock literature is at hand it may be well to note that it is an offence punishable by fine and imprisonment for any one to give, furnish or use a false pedigree for any live stock, or to issue a false certificate of sale of live stock. This will be safety and protection to honest slock dealers against many who have no character or reputation to lose, and their chief and only object being to dispose of animals, giving their word, which they call a pedigree.

The New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio base bull league for this year will be composed of eight chilis, representing the towns of Jamestown, N. Elmira, Olean, Bradford, Krie, Meadville, Oil City and Youngstown. It is believed that this will be a more successful season than last. It is to be hoped at least. I bought only a small bill of goods, last evening, at L.

L. Keek's and savec 25 cents. Father says that was just as good as though 25 cents had been added to his wages for that day's work. You would hardly thought of looking at iMhat way, would you but it is true. In the House last week Neeb's hill intended to permit druggists to sell soft drinks and cigars on Sunday was reported with an amendment that they dispense nothing on that day except that necessary for the preservation of life.

The Evansburg Savings Bank is the name of the reorganized bank at Evansburg. John S. McKean is president, R. A. Stratton, vice president and James F.

wart, cashier. A New Manufacture. As published in this paper some time ago, P. L. Kimberly and Co.

have been arranging for the manufacture of cotton ties. The writer was at the mill Monday when a trial was being made to test the machinery and capacity of the mill. The test proved satisfactory in every respect and in a few weens the manufacture will begin in earnest. Two new boilers, mounted on Mr. Runser's plan, will be put in very soon.

Association meeting at Youngs- last week. Drivers of the iron horse often find their steeds capricious and indisposed to perform their wonted labor, but the engine of the limited express, No. 5, deliberately "balked," last Friday, Salamanca. When a horse balks the last and usually effective resort is to build a lire under him. In this case there was a lire but it took one hour to have the desired effect.

Any amount of contrivances are invented that are never adopted or even tried. The invention of a new clock, spoken of by an exchange, will likely be one of this class. The dial-plate and hgures are large, and so are the hour and minute hands. As a train whirls by a station the hour and minute hands whirl around like a flash to mark the correct time, and a red bull's eye Hashes into the dial. Five minutes later the red light turns green and in five mi miles more the green light disappears.

The engineer on the next train following can tell how many minutes ahead is the train that preceeds him. The clock is a perfect timekeeper, and when the train passes drops the signal light. The picnic season will soon be on and the railroads will carry a large number excursionists the coining season. The Pennsylvania Company are getting the Rock Point grounds in shape.

This season at Conneaut promises to he the best yet and the S. E. will cary the majorily ol the pleasure seekers to that resort.

Through excursion trains will lie run over this road by way of the M. This will bean especial accommodation not only to this place, but other points on the line as well. This road will also furnish a new route to Lake Erie and Niagara Falls. Highest of all in Leavening U. S.

Gov't Report GOIHMO Her Host. Mrs. Hannah Carlon died at the resilience of bet daughter, Mrs. Morris, on Friday afternoon, April 17, in the year ol her age. Her inaidtn name was Daniels She was born in Bedford Sept.
