A New Oil Strike.
A FIFTKEN HUKDBKD BAIIREL WElIi
IN KOKE6T COUNTY.
Titusville. Aug. 25. Considerable
excitement exists to-dny over a new
strike, nine miles from Cherry Grove,
In Forest County, near Balltown.
This well was a wild-cat adventure,
and was owned by the Grandln Bros.
She is reported to be a gusher, and
parties who know claim she will not
fall short of a fifteen hundred barrel
producer. All that is known of tho
vell is that she struck the saud lust
evening, and one of the Grandiu
brothers, with driller, bought an oil
saver at Garfield and sent It immedi
ately to the Well. This caused a great
deal of excitement, and different
parties started for the well. They
Were permitted to view the well only
from a distance, as a guard was In
charge of it. It Is reported that the
well made several flows lantlng fifteen
hiinutes every hour during the night.
As this opens new territory it proves
to be a matter of great importance to
the trade. In consequence of the new
strike the market fell oil', closing at
C5c.
After a bitter fight, Mr. J. B
Newton of Cameron secured the en
dorsement of his county for the State
Senutor.hip,and the privilege of choos
ing his own conferees to gain this'
much, he found it necessary to resort
to the unprecedented cheek of entering
. tlie convention as a delegate in, his
own interest'. The convention was
disposed to select the conferees for
bim, on the ground that Mr. Newton
had once violated the known wishes
of the people of Cameron County in
this same business. But when the
gentleman beirged piteously for the
trust. Cameron county relented. He
Is mighty small timber for the Senate,
but then he U not likely to get there.

The following notice we copy from
the Democrat :
Attention, Republicans!
The Republican electors of Elk
countv are requested to meet at their
respective places for holdin
elections on Saturday, September I'tli,
at 0 o'clock P. M., lor the purpose of
choosing delegates to attend the
county convention, for the purpose of
nominating county olneers, to be Held
at the court bouse in Knljiwiiy, on
Tuesday, September 12;h, at 10 o'clock
A. M.
By order of J. II. Hagehtv,
Chairman Hep. Co. Com.
The Democrat is well known to b(
a Democratic paper. It will also Le
observed bv the most casual reader
that the notice purport in come from
the Chairman of the Republican
County committee, and is to notify the
Republican electors of the county that
there will bean election for delegates
to a county convention, and alio
giving notice of the time of holding said
convention The question naturally
arrises. Was not the notice alo pub
lished in The Advocate, tho Re
publican orgnii (no boss organ), and
was not. the chairman by inserting in
the Democrat, the ..notice simply see
ing to give it as wide publicity as
possible?
We will answer the question by
saying that the notice was not handed
in at this office at all, and the first in
timation Republicans will have of the
holding of their county convention,
will be found in a Democratic ors-'iin.
Why did the Chairman do this?
Because as he has often expressed
that there was no Republican paper
in the county. And in his blind con
ceit he thinks he will make others be
lieve what he has almost convinced
himself of. Then again he would,
with all the brass-button dignity of
a U. S. olllcial, seek to ignore the fact
that such paper as The Advocate
exists.
This thing will not work Mr. Chair
man. As chairman of the county com
mittee it is your duty to uive notice of
the time of holding delegate elections
etc., iu The Advocate, the Republi
can organ (no boes organ) of the
county. And in the performance of a
public duty you should choke down
your spleen just a little for the good of
the party.
But the good of the party is not
what he desires. The growth of the
party in the county he looks forward
to with dread. For a Republican
party in tho county of a few hundred
insures a delegate to the state conven
tion just as a party of thousands. And
while ou the one baud tbe party
could be controlled by an unscrupu
lous though small calibered man
through the apathy of the better ele
ment of the organization, on the other
hand the same man would count as
one and a small one at that, for the
best men of the party would come to
the front.
However, the Republican party of
the county is steadily increasing aud
will continue to increase, whether it
suits the personal ends of a certain
individual or not In conclusion we
advise all Republicans to take heed of
tho notice for the delegate election.
Let every true Republican be on guard
Attend tbe primaries even if it does
cause you a little Inconvenience,
Send men as delegates from the
various precincts who are alive and
awake. The primaries are important,
and are really the source of tho power
of the people.
Then do not forget the primaries, a
long pull, a strong pull, and a pull al-
togather, and we will redeem Elk
county from the servitude of the little
boss, and all the bosses.
Corner-stone Laying.
The corner-stone of the Congrega
tional church was laid on Monday
evening of this week with appropriate
services. The evening was delightful,
Inviting many from their homes to
participate In tho servi ces. Seats had
been thougtfully provided for, tlie con
gregation while the choir and speakers
occupied a platform in near proximity
to the beautiful and much admired corner-stone.
The services were opened
by an invocation by the Pastor, Rev.
A. VanCamp, fallowed by the hymn,
"I love thy Kingdom Lord". Rev.
Mr. Crittenden, of Bellfonte, Pa., who
was unexpectedly present, read a por
tion of scripture and led the congrega
tion in prayer. Mr. VanCamp then ex
hibited a tin box containing, among
other things, a bible, hymn book
history of the church since its foun
dation, a copy of the Ecclesiastical
Council for its recognition and recep
tion Into the fellowship of the churches,
acopy of the last issue of the Elk Demo
crat, and Elk Co Advocate, and
some other papers, among tham a list
of the clergymen "present, and the
names of the members of the choir,
who have thus secured immortality
by their services. Tho box having
been deposited in the prepared cavity
Mr. Van Camp proceeded with tlie
aid of his assistants to lay the corner
stone in tlie name of the Holy Trinity
upon which to build a church build
ing for the use of the people of the
Congregational faith and order in
Ridgway. Tlie choir then sang a very
beautiful anthem, alter which tbe
Rev. S. T. Thomson of St. Marys de
livered a stirring and appropriate ad
dress full of poetic beauty and pathos
whose only fault was its brevity. Tlie
people wanted to hear more this faithful
and experienced minister. Rev. Crit
tenden wished to bu excused from
making a formal address, but expressed
his great pleasure at being present on
such an interesting occasion. Rev. Mr.
VanCamp then made a href adddrss
upon the thoughts expressed by the
building of the church edifice, and the
work which tlie society contemplates
as it takes its place in the sisterhood
of churches, and worship under
its own vine and fig tree. It was
not to be rivalry but mutual help in lift
ing the souls of men up into the favor
and fellowship of theSon of God. The
services were concluded by the Doxo
logy and Benediction when all retired
feeling that a pleusent and profitable
hour had been spent with the Congre
giUionalists of Ridgway.
Railroad Progress.
WOHK HFGl'X AU ALONG THE LINE.
Sprliijfvllle Herald.
More than a week ago those incredu
lous people who believed that the
Bult'alo branch of the R. & P. Rail
road woutu never tie built were van
quished by tlie evidence of their eyes
and ears; now it would seem as though
those also who has not believed that it
could bo finished within the specified
time, must cease their incercdulity ; if
they have not, a trip over tlie route
inu-t, at least, show some very rapid
work. We can report the most en
couraging progress since our last issue.
All along the line additional forces of
men and teams have been put on, and
the contractors who were waiting for
men or tools, now have them and are
at work. The grading in Cattaraugus
county is being done especially fast,
and there would seem to be no doubt
about its being completed within the
required forty-five days. There are
about 100 more hands at work on that
part of the line, than there were a
week ago, making a total of between
four and five hundred meu on four
teen miles of the road.
Tench & Craigie are pushing things
on the four mile section which they
have iu this vicinity. A pedestrian
trip on Wednesday over the line of
the road showed the grading com
pleted from Waverly st- to the swamp
near Mr. Squires', nearly one and
one half miles from the village, with
the exception of a short distance
through the grove on West st. There
a gang of men are at work, and will
finish it up iu a few days. On Wed
nesday, Mr. Tencli was working five
gangs beyond the swamp. Since then
tracK nas tieen lam out as Inr as
graded, dump cars been put on and
dirt is being filled In as fast as one
would wish.
A gang began on Wednesday, also,
at the graded line at Waverly st.,
working south.
P. Shannon began work on his mile
section extending from the Cattarau
gus Creek this way, on Thursday.
A board-lng house has been erected
in the beautiful valley of the Cattarau
gus, near the bridge site. Through
not lathed aud plastered on the out
side, it is probably provided with
interior conveniences, and we dare
say it will afford more solid comfort,
to the square foot, than our most gilt
edged hotels.
The line of the road from Glen wood
to Colden looks like "business'' and
is finally sufficient to dispel the doubts
of the inhabitants of the latter village,
and convince them that the road Is a
certainty. Through Colden village
some very heavy work has been done,
and the people are Inclined to be
somewhat boastful of the progress
made In their town. BufTuni st. has
been cut through to a depth of about
20 feet and a long AH made of about
25 feet. Mr. Ed. Blakely who has
charge of the route we saw between
Colden and Glcnwood is working a
large force of men and a long stretch
of graded road Is the result.
The contracting company has gone
at the Work with system, giving con
tracts as soon as possible for the heavy
parts of tbe road and pushing on the
work as fast as possible, while the
ensler parts are left until there is more
ilesure, so that all will be finished at
nearly the same time. Beyond Colden,
at West Falls and in the vicinity of
East Hamburg on the Potter farm
gangs of men are at work, and pro
gress Is as rapid as could be expected.
Beyond East Hamburg there is a lit
tle portion where the line is not de
finitely settled, but will besoon. The
work, however, from BufTato to East
Hamburg is very easy, and can be
quickly done, the country being for
the most part very level.
Work Is being pushed Btill faster on
the most southern division. The L.
M. & D. C. Co,, which Superintend
ent J. E. Miller recently Joined, are
working 800 men besides sub-letting
small lots about 20 miles between
Ridgway and DuBois.
President Walston H. Brown, of
New York, General Manager Geo. A.
Merchant of Rochester, and Chief
Engineer C. A. Wilson passed over
the Buffalo Division Friday. They
were accompanied from Springville to
Buffalo by Division Engineer H. B.
Baylor.
The names of the stations of the R.
& P. R. R. below Bradford are very
odd. From Bradford south they will
be: Custer City, Big Shanty, Craw
fords, Alton Summit, Orinsby Mill,
Wilcox, Rolfe, Johnsoiiburg. Whistle
town, Ridgway, where the forces are
now working, Little Toby Creek,
Brockway ville, Rattlesnake Junction,
Beech Tree Mines, Bells Mines, Du
Bois and Punxsutawney, a distance of
HO n dies south of Bradford and 182
miles from Buffalo.

others. It Is as clear as water, and, as
its name indicates, is a perfect Vee

ately free tbe head from dandruff', re
store gray hair to its naturul eoloi
and produce a new growth where itr
has fallen off'. It does not in any
manner affect the health, which Sul
