Scarlet feyer is still raging in Smeth port. The soda water fountain season is fast approaching. The middle division pay car was here on Saturday, with Supt. Koberts aboard; The W. C.

T. U. will meet in the M. E. church on Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock.

The spring weather brings out the builders, and the carpenter's hammer is heard from all directions. The time when the spade, the rake and the shovel can be used to good advantage is coming on apace. The Catholic festival held in Griffiths' Hall on Saturday evening was a complete success, the net proceeds aggregating $104. The Presbyterian festival on Monday evening was largely attended, and the proceeds were not far from ninety dollars. The Prohibition county convention will be held in Orpheus Hall, Bradford, next Thursday.

There will be a mass meeting in the evening. Sunday night brought with it about three inches of snow by way of a change. It soon disappeared, however, before the grateful rays of the genial sun. We trust that Arbor Day will be fittingly observed in and about Kane by the planting of a liberal number of trees, both of the shade and fruit varieties. A meeting was recently held in Port Allegany, and the majority of thecitizens present expressed themselves in favor of having erected in that place a three story brick school house to cost about $12,000.

Port Allegany returned a majority in favor of having a supply of water for fire purposes, but their new water works seem to be among the uncertainties. The "kickers" are going to take the matter into the courts, and contest the question. Ground was on Thursday last broken for the Congregational church, at the corner of Greeves and Chase streets. The lot on which the church will stand is said to have cost $1,100. The church will be a wooden structure, with brick veneering, On Thursday afternoon last E.

Will Kane hate one? Since the passage of the marriage license law, 1,259 licenses to wed have been issned in Erie county ihe employes of the passenger car shop at Renovo are now working thirteen hours a day in order to keep up with the rush of work. Senator Walling, of Erie, having de cided not to be a candidate for re election, Gen. D. B. JiTCleary, of that city, is a candidate for the Republican nomination for that office.

The Arcade, Erie's new hotel, which is located on State street, between Tenth and Eleventh, accommodates between 150 and 200 guests a day. It must prove quite a thorn in the side of the Reed House. Geo. Smith, an inmate of the Erie Soldiers' Home from Philadelphia, mysteriously disappeared on Friday. When last seen he was fishing on the breakwater, and from the fact that his cap was found upon the pier, it is thought he was drowned, A company has been organized at Erie, composed of union printers who left the Herald and Dispatch offices on a strike against plate matter, to publish an evening paper to be called the Erie Even ing lmes.

It is to be independent politics, and devoted to local news. The following are the Republican nominations in Warren county: Assembly, C. C. Thompson sheriff, Henry Fuell hart prothonotary, D. V.

Arird. Capt. H. Cummings is delegate to the National Convention, and Henry Brace delegate to the State Convention. Mr.

Brace will vote for Judge Gordon for Supreme Judge. The meetings of the Northwestern Pennsylvania trotting circuit will beheld at the following times and places Mead yille, May 22, 23 and 24 purses, $2,000.

Joseph Metz, one of the Erie police force, was held in $3,000 bail on Monday, on the charge of murderous assault on David Malone, whom he arrested on Saturday night for drunkenness and malicious mischief. It is alleged that upon Malone's refusal to go with him, Metz beat him over the head so brutally that he died on Monday night. Metz insists that he did not strike Malone with anything but his fist. Mr.

W. L. Holman, who is at the head of the movement to sink the Drury's Run well 4,000 feet, tells us that the arrange' ments for starting the drill have been almost completed and work will be going on in a few days. Almost enough money has been subscribed to sink the well the full 4,000 feet, and there is no danger but that the full amount will be forthcoming as soon as the drillers are ready. Renovo News.

The chief burgess of Renovo comes out in the Record with a communication reminding the citizens of that borough of the return of spring and the necessity of cleaning up the rubbish accumulated on their properties during the winter. This should be done for the preservation of health as well as the improvement in the general appearance of the town, and should be required in every city, borough and village. T. Q. Lewis, chief magistrate of Olean and superintendent of the Eclipse refinery, electrified the social circles of that pros perous borough by eloping on Friday night with Miss Katherine Hodge, the adopted daughter of one of the leading citizens of the town.

Lewis has a wife and three children. Before leaving his wife on Friday evening, he kissed her, and remarked that he would be down town late. When last heard from, the guilty pair were in Boston. The Republicans of all four of the counties in this congressional district held their primaries on Saturday. In Venango E.

W. Smiley received 1,112 votes for Congress to 898 for Col. W. J. Hulings.

In Warren Col. Watson had a walk over, as had Hon. Lewis Emery, in this county. As Cameron has no candidate, the fonr counties will go into the conference with three candidates, but when the real struggle comes it is thought the fight will be between Watson and Emery. A gentleman named Mankin, of Wil liamsport, is thinking of locating a furniture factory in Ridgway that will give employment to from seventy five to one hundred men.

He asks for a suitable site of five acres and gas at a reduced rate. Whether the people of Ridgway will be equal to the emergency, remains to be seen, They have had a number of good opportunities in the past to add to their manufacturing interests, but have almost un iformly failed to grasp them. It would seem that by this time they should have acquired sufficient wisdom from experience to fasten on to good thing when it comes along. But will hey The Chautauqua management an nounce a new feature for the summer of 1888, an intercollegiate oratorical contest. Several colleges in the vicinity of Chautauqua, such as Rochester University, Adelbert College, of Cleveland, and Washington and Jefferson College, of Washington, have been invited, we understand, to send representatives to compete in the Chautauqua amphitheatre for prize of $100.

Most of the colleges have signified an intention to enter their embryo orators in this contest. We advise our readers to go to Chautauqua and hear the future Websters, Clays, Dcpews and Evartses of our country, A wood chopper named Geo. Starkweather, living near Grand Valley, Warren county, was lodged in jail on Friday, on the charge of incest, the victim of his hellish brutality being his fifteen year old daughter. It is alleged by the unfortunate child that three years ago her father first committed the heinous offence, and terrified her into silence by threatening to kill her if she revealed the horrid truth. She finally made the sickening confession to her mother, upon the assurance that she would protect her from violence at the hands of her brutal father.

The information that led to Starkweather's arrest was made by his wife, who has borne the villain eleven children, ten of whom are younger than the girl whose young life has been blasted by this horrible crime. The greatest indignation prevailed throughout the community a rope was procured, and an attempt mado to take the brute from the officers and bang him. Failingin this, the enraged citi tens Treasurer Foster, of SL Mary's, was in town on Tuesday. Young Doctor Earley contemplates baying a new Victor bicycle. T.

Measles, followed by fever, was the cause. All but three in the senior class of the high school graduated at the exam ination held at the school house on Sat urday. Owen M'Carthy, assistant train de spatcher of the Philadelphia and Erie road, was registered at the Hyde House on Monday. W. M.

Schram and wife left for their home in Lebanon on Tuesday morning. They took with them the best wishes of a large circle of friends. Capt, Horton, while duck hunting last week, tipped the boat and fell into wnat ne calls tne coldest water ever known in the Clarion river, Misses Addie and Bonnie M'Knight, of Brookville, who came over to attend the reception at the Hyde House on Friday evening, returned on Monday.

Makius, The American Agriculturist For May, 1888, is one of the brightest, most varied and valuable numbers issued during the successful career of this time honored periodical.

Carpentering, Joining anTnk Build The undersigned begs to announce to the citizens of Kane that he is prepared to do carpenter and joiner work on short notice. Tank building specialty. jiEF.n uuac. 7 anl 2d dent judge of the Twenty fith judicial district, composed of the counties of Cam eron, Clinton and Elk, expiring this year, the friends of ex Senator 8. R.

Peale, of Lock Haven, urged him to be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for that office. After careful consideration, Mr. Peale last week wrote a letter declining to institute a contest for the office, which is so admirable in tone, so correct in principle, and so fraught with truth that we are glad to give it place in the Leader. Mr. Peale says The time has come within which I promised my friends to decide whether I would be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for president judge of this district at the ensuing election.

My reply is that I shall not. In reaching this conclusion I have not failed to give consideration to the arguments which have been advanced neither have I lacked appreciation of the kindness of friends. But to be a candidate would involve a partisan contest, which, in method and in matter, I am unwilling to associate with this exalted office. The bench should not be made the foot ball of any political Then, to accept this office would to me involve too many business sacrifices. If elected, I should feel it my duty to cutoff every business connection and devote my whole time and strength to the discharge of official duties.

I could not, and I doubt whether any judge can, be free from bias on the bench, if in any matter interested in or connected with business affairs which would even remotely be affected by like cases before court. The same may be said in politics. A judge should have nothing to do with politics except to exercise his personal right to yote. What the people want is fair play between man and man, and no judge will be trusted who does not secure this for them. Can a judge who trades for votes hold a just balance? A great jurist has said in substance that 'every man who comes before court is entitled not only to a fair trial, but is entitled to feel that he has had a fair The character of the judge and the proceedings of the court must be such as to inspire confidence and respect in every suitor.

While I concede it to be the duty of a citizen to accept a public trust high or low which is tendered by his fellow citizens, I do not feel called upon to solicit this office. It is a solemn task to sit in judgment on one's fellow man, a task not to be lightly sought or to be accepted without grave concern. How can a judge who has resorted to slum methods to obtain his office, be or become a just judge? Does he inspire confidence and respect Do partisan aims and courtesan arts become the bench How dare one who has coupled these graces in his campaign, attempt to take his seat as judge, unless it be to immediately present himself to the grand jury for indictment A court is defined to be a place where justice is judicially admin istered, not comnierciallj', nor politically, but judicially administered. When our courts of justice are no longer to be relied upon, then will we be lost indeed. There is no creature on this earth so despicable and damned as he, who, sitting in the seat of judgment, substitutes in any form iniquity for equity.

A judge must be not only capable and learned in his profession, but he must love truth because it is true, and must maintain right because it is right. Being by this letter voluntarily put out of the list of candidates for nomination, I have indulged in tho above re marks without personal reference, with the hope thereby to assist my fellow citizens in making a wise selection of one to judge the people for the next ten years. The importance of such selection cannot be over rated, for the safety of human rights depends upon the purity of our courts. Very respectfully youn R. Notice.

The convention was one of the largest ever held in the county, sixty' eieht delegates being present.

Hon. Emery, Jr, was unanimously nominated for Congress, with power to choose his own conferrees. W. E. Burdick, of Duke Centre, and E.

T. Mapes, of Kendall, were chosen delegates to the State Con vention. A motion to adopt the Crawford county system of nominating county officers was, after considerable debate, in definitely postponed by the rather onesided vote of 44 to 19. A resolution in structing the delegates to the State Con Aention to support Hon. Isaas G.

Gordon forjudge of the Supreme Court, and Hon. C. W. Stone for delegate at large to the Natioual Convention provoked a heated discussion, and was finally defeated. A resolution requesting the delegates to the State Convention to vote for a change in the chairmanship of the State Committee, was defeated by a vote of 35 to 17.

A resolution instructing the conferrees to cast their votes for J. W. Cochran, of Cameron county, and H. H. Cummings, of Warren county, for delegates to the National Convention, was defeated, after which the convention adjourned sine die.

Another Oil Strike. Another well was added to the Kane oil field by the completion of the Van Scoey well, on the Bliss lot, in Hamilton township, on Tuesday evening. This new producer is situated abought eight or nine miles'from Kane, and is pronounced by some of the oil men to be a very good well, and by others it is put at from five to ten barrels. The secrecy with which these new ventures are guarded makes it impossible to obtain any definite information in regard to the extent of this new well, or to speculate on the effect it may have on the market but this much we know the Kane oil field is not yet thoroughly developed, as is proven by the success of this venture, and the future of this section as an oil producing territory looks exceedingly bright.

There was a terrible wreck on the Bradford branch of the Erie railroad early on Thursday morning last, caused by the collision of a passenger train with a freight train, about six miles below Bradford. Both engines and the one hundred and twenty cars of which the freight train was composed were almost completely demolished. No one was killed, but the engineer of the passenger train was seriously injured. The latest thiug in the way of amuse mcot at social gatherings is known as "pig party." The way the thing isdone Is this Everybody at a party is required to draw, with a pencil on white paper, two pigs. The drawing must be made without taking the pencil off the paper.

The second drawing must be made with the eyes blindfolded, after which the paper must be signed. Finally a comparison of drawings takes place, and the prize in competition is given to the draughtsman the best pig. The person who makes the worst drawing is called the pig. As trout fishing is now lawful, we quote the law upon the subject, which is as follows "No person shall kill, sell or have in possession after being killed, any salmon or speckled trout save only from the 15th of April to the 15th of July, under penalty of $10 for each fish. No person shall take, for sale, any trout less than five inches long, or fish in any water, for three in which brook trout havo been planted by the Fish Commissioners, when public notice of said planting hat been given, under $20 penalty.
