Abont9 o'clik this forenoon, at Mr.

plaee, wen detcendlng lb hill from tbe
Niagara farm, by an anlrvqnented path
baek of Wild Cat Hollow, and about 160
yardt frnra the beateo path, they discover
d the body of a mao entirely naked and In
an advanced aiata of drcompoaltloo. Tbe
youog men Itnmeniately upon arriving In
town tvp.irted Ike discovery ef tbe remaina
to Justice Reynold, who Immediately rm.
pannelleJ a coroner's jury, vuited tbe spot
and took a view of tbe body. Our reporter
was early on tbe ground and ascertained the
following facta:
Tbe remains wera past recognition and
bad rvideotly lain where found for evral
month past, f mm ita position It was ap
parent tbat tbe poor man had arote to work
witb tbe deliberate Intention of Cotnniitting
the rash act of elf-destruction. Jle had
evidently first removed All bisclothlog, fold'
ed And laid tbetn together neatly tn a pile1
including boot and bat, retaining bit un
dershirt, which he used to hang' himself
with, lie bad then evidently proceeded to
email aapllog, about ftljy feet from where
he had left tbe olotbloe, climbed it about
t -n fret, tied one end of tb timlnrahlrt to
limb of tbe tree, and the other end round
bit neck, and tn tbat nude condition jumped
off to bis death. Wben diMMverrd tbe body
wa laying At the loot of the tree, having
evidently fallen head downward; tbo bead
waa almost completely bidden trom view be
ing under the body; one leg waa extended
down hill and tbe other in tbe opposite til
rectioo. The neok bad been broken by tbe
fall, but whether that destroyed bis fife or
be wat'.dead before tbe fall can only be con
jpctured. A portion of tbe flannel under
shirt a till remains attached lo tbe limb of
tbe tree.
An examination of the cloiMng was made
and In tbe packer 5,30 tn currency, ' a
package of medicine eucl ed in an envel
ope from the drug ttoro of M. S. Simmons
having no name on It, spool or thread,
several needles, and an aeoutit bonk, were
found. The name ir deceased di J a. it Ap
pear in tbe book, but from It the lac was
learned that be bad been- employed by tbe
Urn of Porter Siasion & Co., Lockpnrt, N.
Y , making bos bandies, in 1868-69; and
fur Homer McLean,' at Albion.. N. Y.,Mn
1898.. He bad also worked nt Geueseo, N.
Y., and had boatded with Mr. Siwlon while
at work lor him nt Lockport. There wa
other memoranda in the book but it could
not be made out having beeu obliterated, fcy
the aeliun of tbe elements.
Bit IIIIKTITT.
During tbe fcrenooc the remain were vl.
tied by several of tbe workmen in tea em
ploy of tbe Central Petroleum Company,
who Identified tb clothing a having be
longed to Patrick 1'ryor, a Tonner employee
of tbe Company, and who disappeared
about six month stace. '1 he book of the
Central lVtro'eum C. show that Patrick
1'ryor left their employ the 2d day of. Octo
ber, 1870, ltiAviug a bAleoOA duo hits from
the Central Company ol $19.25. Re
stayed about town two or tbree days, and
waa aeen about that time by Mr. John Hen
ley going In tbe direction where tbe remains
were lound, who Inquired where ba wat go
ing and bow ba felt. Deceased 'replied "I
am gone up, and am going 00 the hill lo
Oriffeo'!" or words to that effect. This
was tbe laat teen of him alive.
At tbe tlma ba left the employ of tbo
Central Co. ba remarked tbat "ba waa tick
and thought be would go to tbe hospital At
Buffalo," and wa promised employment on
bl return.
Those who were intimate with blm think
that be was not in bis right mind at tbe
time ol committing the rash ect, and tbe
surrounding ol tbe body would Indicate
such to ba the cate. The remains have
been taken In charge by Mr. Griffon, whn
retldet on tbe Woad form, and la a cousin of
the unfortunate mao. He ba a brother re
siding at Dunkirk, who baa been telegraph
ed to and returned an aoawer stating tbat
be would arrive on tbo evening trao.
From other aourcea wa learn tbat Pryor
had only been In Ibis country about f iur
years;, wo about 3,2 years of aod un
married; bad lived at Lockport fr about
two years.. The jury are now tn tension and
will probably reodtir a vurdict tbi. even

Kenyon's New Double Acting Oil Pump
is acknowledged to be tbe best pump now
in use. One ot its leading lentnreM is that
it pot only proiucs a continuous Mow ol
oil or ol her Quiil, but that it create and
mistain a conetnht aed powerful suction,
by mean ol wbicn the seams or veins of the
well m e lu a great oieasiire cleared of pat A
fine and other obstruct, ons, and tbe oil in
the veins is drawn toward .the welt, li
bas been ascertained by actnal teat that tbe
use of tbia pump causes a gradually Increas
ing Sow nl oil. It i well known by oil
operntore tbat Ibis improvement la of great
viliie, and one tbat htw been long sough I
for. Tueabl'Bt mechanics of our country

out some new and untried plan lo prolong
the life time of an oil well; and iiotbing yet
lo onr knowledge haa been brought before

ttmiibt that it is the long continued suc
