Tho days ar growing perceptibly shorter, but not much cooler. Tho Lickingvillo campmeeting will commenco one week from to-morrow, Aug. 18th, and last one week. Mr. Eli lloleraan is entertaining her mother and sister, Mrs. Ulaisdell and Mrs. Brown, of Vineland, N. J. There was a slight frost out on the hills on Sunday night. No dam ago was done that wo bavo learned of. Mis9 Hannah Warrick, of Wash ington, Pa., has boon visiting with her niece, Mrs. llickliDg, for tho past two weeks. Mr. G. W. Bovard and family are visiting friends and relatives in Butler county, having been absent since Thursday. Col. John Peterson, Democratic candidate for Prothonotary, was shaking hands with Tiouesta friends yesterday. Misses Lillian Benedict and Ella Henderson, of Pleasantville, spont the Sabbath in town, tho guests of Miss Maud Davis. Dr. Harry E. Campbell and brother, Thos., of Allegheny City, cousins of R. L. and Jaa. Ilaslett, are rusticating in tow n. Mr. Will It. May, of Louisville, Ky., was here on a visit to his. parents a few days during the past week. He was looking quite well. Wils. Jamicson and a Mr. Trace, drove over from Plcasantvillo last Sunday, returning home in tho evening by the bright moonlight. Tho rain on Saturday afternoon refreshed the earth immensely, and Sunday was tho roost comfortable day we've had lor several weeks. Mr. Chas. Cott, of Columbus, O., accompanied by his sister, arrived in town on Thursday of last week; and is visiting with his wife at Mr. Roberts'. -Dr. Shamburg was in town yes terday. The Doctor produces more oil from his West Hickory property than our people are aware of, and makes bo fuss about it either. Henry Shoemaker being a mem ber of the Oil City Grays, N. G. P.. has gone to the grand encampment at , g00J shape immediately Tho bovs will doubtless Dr. Morrow viiiited his home in Armstrong county last week ; his wife accompanied him on his return, and will remain for a short visit, and look up a suitable placo of residence. The Dr, will bring on his family as soon as possible. Somo of the previous young men of our town were a little premature in serenading a highly respectable young couple down street on Monday eve ning. The bovs say Kepler of tho Democrat, is to blame for the dis turbance. F. A. Tozer, of the East Brady Times, has enlarged his paper by the addition of another column, making it an eight column sheet. Bully for Tozer 1 lie is making a splendid paper of the Times, it is well patronized, and he hrs our best wishes for abundant success. Holcman & Hopkins are building a largo addition to the north side of their new block, in which they will storo flour and feed. The building is now progressing quite rapidly, and grows handsomer every day. It will not be a great while before they can occupy it. Tho cow-catcher on the locomo tive of tho 1:40 down train on Thurs day last sustained its good name by dispatching one of Judge Proper's cows, just around the bend below town. The cow was unable to withstand the shock, and so the Judge'a pocket book will have to. Tho Clarion Presbytery will meet in this place on Tuesday, Aug. 23. Rev. T. D. Caruachan, of Oil City, will preach on Monday evening pre ceding, and there will also be services on Wednesday mornicg. A complete programme of the services cannot bo given at this writing. Bark-peeling is at au end for this season. Th& Salmon Creek Lumber Co. have several thousand cords piled up on their property, from which they will reap a handsome profit. There i? money in tho bark business now, but it's hard on hemlock timber, which is bound to be valuable before many years. In less than a month our borough schools will open. The directors have decided on having three schools, but as yet we have heard of no building beinrr secured in which to hold the o primary school, from which we judge the little children are to play "freeze out" iu the old church building another winter. Some repairs are needed on the floor of the creek bridge at this place. Several holes have been worn through, some of them large enough to admit a horse's leg. A E.itch in time saves nine. P. S. Our C ity Commission- ers, with characteristic promptness, will have the bridge repaired and put Bowaro of "snako-feeders ;" an rs chaDgo has tho following: "A snake feeder Blung Mrs. Liogafelt, of Blair county; on the wrist. The wound gave great pain and caused the arm to swell up, and in a short time the whole body became swollen and raisod up in fcpots like the welts left by a cowhide. Remedies were administered, and on the following morning the swelling had gone down considerably. The insect stung Mrs. L. on an artery, and the poisonous blood passed through the entire system. They are generally cowardly and are more apt to retreat than to attack individuals. The attention of our county sub scribers, and especially those at all in terested iu the education of the young, is directed to the Report of Superin tendent Ilillard in this issue. Mr. II. has visited all but one school in the county one or more times and has taken careful note of everything pertaining thereto, and gives 3uch hints as will prove highly beneficial to the progress of education if properly acted upon by tho proper persons. Ii is evident that he is doing his share toward the ad vancement of our schools, and it only remeins for the directors and patrons to d theirs, and we shall not be one whit behind our sister counties in tbis important matter. According to tho following from the Clarion Republican, squirrels must bo reasonably plentiful in that county. We ha?o heaid of but few being seen in this vicinity thss far : "It is against the law to shoot squirrels in this sea son, nevertheless, many are being killed. Our intelligent law makers fix the 1st of September as tho begin ning of the season, which is at least two months too late. But what they don't know about when game should be killed is not worth knowing, and the law-abiding sportsmen must sub mit. By the way, there is an impress ion that tho farmers who conclude that the squirrels are destroying their grain may shoot them or give others per mission to do so. This is a mistake. The law contains no such provision, and tho farmer who shoots squirrels to protect his grain is as liable to a fiue as the pot-hunter." Neilltown Nuggets. every The Oil News. BALLTOW2.

Dr. Morrow wishes us to say for the benefit of those living in and out of town, that ho can be found all hours of the night, when not professionly absent, at the Rural House. Rev. Herman Gilbert, of Corry, Pa., visited-with Mr. Ed. IleibelMon ilv nml Tuesdav of this week. Rev. Gilbert ia the gcntleraau who "tied tho knot" that'made Ed. happy. Braceville had quite a storm all to itself on Friday evening of last week ; timbers was tessed around pro miscuously. The storm had spent its force before reaching Collins' Mill. Robinson & Bonner have torn down tho shed in rear of the store, and will erect a commodious warehouse, the better to accommodate their large and increasing trade. Mason Joyce is doing the stone work. Tho blackberry season being al most at hand, tho question naturally arises, "where aro tho best cans to be Jim and Monk Davis, Mack Agnew and Sammy Clark, are en camped on Fleming Island, just above town. They have a nice tent erected, and cook, eat and sleep there ; they subsist mainly ou game, fish and wild meats, and are keeping a close watch ou the neighboring cornfields. Bar ring the pot-hunteri who occasionally encroach upon their grounds, the boys are having a good time. The saliitatorian at Yalo this year was a Dutchman, the valedictorian a TTehrew. and the prize declaimer a - - Chinaman. Aud tne Americans.! Well, when it comes to base ball and boat racing the Americans bavo tho educational bulge on the foreigners. The Dutchman, Hebrew and China man will mourn over "lost opportuni ties" before they are a year older when they see that tho newspapers devote more space to a boat race than to all the salutatories, valedictories and declamations ever written. Franklin Press. Messrs. Hall & Msv are having their Buck Mills overhauled and fixed up in a superior manner. Among other things the two old water wheels 1 are being torn out and replaced by a Harvesting goes on apace ; body is busy. Miss May Baugher is away on a visit to her mother. Mr. Fred.

Miss Lill Johnson of Titusville, is viaitinw with her friend, Mrs. Kate a Machcssney. R. O. Carson met with quite a severe hurt lately. He was standing by tho barn door holding a horse.when another horse which was being led out kicked the one he was holding, scaring it and causing it to rear and plunge about wildly. Mr. Carson being in front of tho horse and in such a position that he could not get out of the way, was forced by necessity to retain his hold upon the horse and by so doiog avert ed serious, if not fatal results to him self. As it was ooa of bis leet was badly bruised, the horse in his pran cings tramping upon it several times EDUCATIONAL NOTES, Tho Stewarts' Run school-has closed for the summer ; also the Flemming Hill school, aud likewise tho school at Berrytown.

BLUE JAY. Darling No. 2, which was finished last week has been flowiug fifteen bar rels daily, and is considered a good well. The run of oil for tho month of July through the United Pipe Line from the Blue Jay district, according to the Derrick's report, was 1,775.80 barrels. This came from four wells, the Magee & Horton, Blue Juy Nos. 1 and-, and Darling No. 1. This ia a daily averace to each well of 14 ... 32 100 barrels, and is by no means a bad showing, but on the contrary n bettar average than the generality of oil fields will show. Of the other operations iu the county we have nothing new to report. Real Estate Transfers. FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT Co. Supt. Hillard visited out school on Tuesday of last week. Neilltown will have a Sunday school picnic somo day during the week. Mr. Jame3 Fogle is home on a visit from Bradford, where he has been staying for some time.

The penalty for practicing without this registration is pretty severe. which will give them greater power with less water. Wm. Richards and Patrick Normile are running the mill, and since the first of April last have sawed and piled iu tho yard over li 100,000 fret of lumber which speaks for itself of the energy and push of these gentlemen.

Joy has several manufacturing estab lishments ; machine factories of various kinds, and other Industries. Here too is located the school for Soldiers' Or phans, one of the best in the Stale, where many of the little wards of the Nation are gathered. At Mt.

The famous bank barn3 ot Lancas ter county dot the landscape for miles in every direction, giving an appear ance of comfort aud prosperity. But it is sad to reflect they are wearing out their lands with that mostjdestructive of all crqrjs tobacco ; in some fields tho leaves not being larger than plantain leaves, while on other better lands large and flourishing. When we con sider that an acre of average tobacco brings about $300 to the farmer, wo do not wonder nt the temptation ; though this year tho crop in somo parts is cut into ribbous by the hail.
