Superintendent Rtitzinger in an ar ticle in to-day's paper announces the principal attractions, In the way of lect ures and instructors, that have been en gaged for the forthcoming teachers' in stitute beginning at the court house one week from next Monday, 21th inst. Tho array of talent is evidently a good one, and the sessions will doubtles be highly ontortaining. There should be no lack of effort on the part of all to make tho in stitute a succoss. Ed. Sannor met with a painful acci dent at the mantel factory last Thursday morning while working at one of the planers. His left hand was drawn into the machine and so badiy lacerated that it was necessary to amputate about one half of the third tingor. The second lin ger was also cansidorably torn and cut but will be saved. Dr. Bovard perlonned the necessary surger', and the injured hand is doing woll.

The ordinauce goes into effect at once, or as soon as a proper officer can be secured to enforco the provisions. Diphthoria's ravages has mado sad havoc in tho family of Goorgo M. Taylor of Titusville, having taken off three of the children within the past two weeks, and tho remaining two children are in great danger from the terrible infection. Mr. Taylor was for a numbor of years a resident of this county, boing employed with Wheeler Dusenbury at 'Endeavor until last spring. Sympathy with the parents is very general and heartfelt among thoir former neighbors at that platco. A crew ol eight men besides the pi lot, Conrad Sibble, on one of the flat boat fleets that recently went down tho river, came near being cremated one morning while they were asleep in their bunks. The shanty took fire and was well undor way when they awoke about half past four iu the morning, and they had to scramble to get out, leaving their cloth ing, except such as they had on, to the liery eloiuont. Every member of the crew lost more or less, one man having nbout thirty dollars worth of clothing burned. An exchango says in a Western town the Odd Fellows 1ml I is located on a floor above the opera house. On a recent lodge night when the initiatory degree was be ing conferred, a gas explosion took place iu the opera house beneath. The floor of the lodge room was raised six feet and the ceiling came down to meet it. The members, of cour.su. fled panic-stricken. Eventually one of the braver ones re turned and found tho candidato standing in tho debris "waiting for the rest of it." It took several minules to convinco tho candidate that the explosion was not a part of the regular performance. A correspondent of the Ridgway Ad vocate, writing from Loleta, the new town in Elk county established about two years ago by Messrs. Amsler A Am sler, of Marienvillo, says: Our town seems to bo improving some. It con sists of twenty-nine dwelling bouses, two boarding houses, two liyery stables, one blacksmith shop, one largo store and postoflice, lath mill, board mill, shingle mill, broom handlo factory, large school bouse, two grades, and company Ice house. This is quite a placo for business. The same correspondent stales that Jos eph Campbell has gone to West Virginia to invest in some timber down there. "The absorption of the Western New York A Pennsylvanio railroad by the Pennsylvania was the best thing that ever happened lo it," said an old V. N. Y. C P. employeo in Buffalo. "I was fi aid that ilio concentration of forces would result in many men boing dis charted, but instead we find that more men aro given employment. Freight and passenger business on the Buffalo di vision is tremelidous, and it will roinain so with the P. R. R.'s big influence back of it. I understand that twenty-five more men are employed in the operating department to-day and tho station forces at many poinls have been increased." Bradford Star. Prof. W. V. McWilliams, principal of tho Warren Business University, was a visitor to Tionesta Saturday, arid made the acquaintance of a large number of our peopio ana prospective patrons oi that excellent institution of learning. Mr, McWilliams was particularly elated over the good outlook for his collego for the coming season, the university having al ready almost reached the limit of its crpacity. Young men and young ladios are being graduated rapidly, and in al most everv instance a good position is awaiting them. It will pay you to cor respond with this institution if you have any notion of taking a course in business instruction. A most religious sect which is.gain ing ground in Pennsylvania, whero so many strange sects have spruug up, is known as the Abilennial Dawn Circle, The disciples of this faith believe that the millennium is at band, that, in fact it is not more than fifteen years away, The intervening time will be filled with wars, disasters, fearful convulsions and what not, though why. none of the teach ers of the Circle seem to know. Then peace will hover over all and the people will receive tho bloslngs promised in Holy Writ. The time of the millennium is not set so far ahead but what the pres ent members of tho Dawn Circle can par ticipate iu its beuefits. YOU AND TOl'K FRIENDS. .
