Geld at 1 p. m. 113), A gentleman from Pittsburgh Is at pres ent in town with a new Invention for burn. logon at walls In place of coal. From what wd have seen of this new invention, ana toe fact that our townsman, Mr- S. Reynolds, and Mr. Ed.- Nichols, or Tarr Farm, have taken bold of tbe enterprise, it will undoubtedly pi ore a success, In tbs vent of which tbe entire fuel trade lor oi wens win do revolutionised. The new Invention will be applied to one f the wells of (be Maple Shade Oil Co. this alternooo, for a lest. viw townsman, Mr. J. .W. Irwin, left town this foreooou for a trip to tbe gold re gieo of North Carolina. Mr. Irwin is quite largely laterested In gold mining at that point. His superintendents are Capt. Ed. f Codlogten, a well known resident o (nil place In former times, and Mr. Weed o Shamburg. We hope Mr. Irwin may have' pleasant time and a safe and speedy re turn home.

Mr. Dsrntusls Is supported by tbe young and live element of the town sgalntt the old fogies. There Is no doubt but he will win tbe contest. He will make a faithfeland competent official, and when the election comes off, which will be la few days, we hope to be able to record bis triumph by a rousing majority. Thomas Donaghy.'Eaq., formerly of Petroleum Cen tre, is a oandldate for Justice of tbe Peace at St. Petersburg. An employee at a London theatre has In vented a contrivance si thai by tbe simple turning of a lever every gas jet, Including a large sunlight In the bnildiag, can be made to throw water with oonsiderabla force In ease of fire. The theatre Is lighted by electricity, so that there Is no necessity lor separate cut-cos at each burner. We suppose regular rum suckers will seek out mor devices to compass a drink than other class of mortals. Washington City is enforcing a Sunday liquor selling law, and the Star says It was curious to watoh tbe gatherings around the rum holes an Sunday morning. But none could get admittance, save such as bad private keys to side doors. There were ethers who walking to the feed counter filled themselves with mince pies (made for Sunday, we suppose. At one beer garden the door keeper was armed with the fore leg of a goat. Tbe thirsty applied to bim but could get no entrance, until it occurred thai the goat's leg was emblematical aod they began to -bah But still no admittance until a knowing one came along who gave the password with peculiar emphasis on ene of bis three 'bah," when he was allowed to pass. Holly Tree coffe houses are to be estab lished In Brooklyn.

To-day The landscape wears a shroud of mow, The cold, winds sweep along tbe plain, And all above aod all below Show winter's melancholy reign.' And- 'How gracefully falls tbe snow!

I Y Buffalo Bill, Texas Jack and other bordeH men, gave an exhibition at Oil City, last evening, which the Derrick pronounces simply atrocious. The whole party passed through tihis place this forenoon en route to Tltuevllie. We may mention in tbls connection I hat . party ol Petroleam Centra men, not Rouseville, were in Oil City, yesterday,and ran across tbe Buffalo Bill party, In conse. qence of which tbe latter party got decid edly boocy, "which tbe same" may account for the poor playiug, No reflection intend' A d on tbe Centre men, V Last night's down train ran over and kill ed a man named Sbanahan, formerly of Miller Farm, near Tryonvllle.

Wonder If they have reformed? Ou, News. Work has been commeuced on tbe Trout Run oil well neaj Clarion bor ough. It yielded two or tbiee barrels a far sor some time, and was filled up 15 or 20 feet from tbe bottom. It Is now to be clean. ed out, drilled deeper and thoroughly tested, Whether it will prove a payiog well or not. t has established tbe fact that this is oil territory. Tbe well on tbe Young farm, en Baaver oreek, Beaver township, a short distance above Best's Mill, was tubed last Saturday, and Is reported as doing as doing 60 barrels a day. SurroKKD Elopemint. Castleton Vt, i oxolled over a supposed elopement oase About two weeks ago a mao, who has bon a resident of tbe town some five years, left home early la tbe morning with a horse and outter aod a few fleeces ef wool, under tbe pretence of going to Claredoo with ibe woo', to have it carded luio rolls, telling bis fam ily, consisting of bis wife and two children, that be should return at night, Tbe team and wool were returned two or three days after, but tbe man bas not been seen since. A young, unmarried woman took leave o the town Ibe same day. east, and it It sup posed tbey met al R inland or Bellows Falls, and lb bappy or uobappy pair are now lurking under she fair skies of Call lornia. Joqn Kelly, one ot the enooped prisoners from the jail at Meadville, bas been arresUd iu Cleveland. He was put In for robbery. Drinking- from the Bar-teiidere Standpoint, Col. F. Montgomery, of tbe Logan Re publican, bas bad a talk with a bar-tender, and It was something beyond tbe usual Give me a finger of Old Rye." Tbe Col onel put the bar tender through a regular processor Interviewing and brought out a oumber of interesting lacts, and we have always presented our views of the liquor business from Ibe stand peiot or the opposi tion, It is ou more tbsn fair that we give a statement representing a view from 'he bar tender's stand point. Tbls statement Is undoubtedly trustworthy, end the actual words ol tbe deale I are given. He says that fcr a clean profit tbere is nothing like it in the world. The beat whisky furnished cost $1.80 a gallon; a gallon averages one hundred drinks at ten cents each, or $10,00. We may be allowed hei to aaggest that If it Is watsred it will go still further, and as It Is all wonder if it was' as tborotigbly diluted as tbe "milk man's" product. Tbe business is good every day iu tbe week and every hour ol Ibe tweuty-lour. A sa loon opened early on Sunday morning w.ll take in $15 before tbe Sunday School bell rings. As a general rule a bar room open ing into a hotel is best, beeausu customers outer tbe hotel without notice from tbe strtet. Especially is tbls tbe case on Sun days. Such a bar will pick up maoy a dime from tbose going to church, while ball the congregation will come in when church Is out. Than this crowd being a little un certain as to where they will spend tbe al. ternoon will each take two drinks, for fear tbey may not get back. The bar tender then detailed to the Colonel bow liquors are "doctored" until very Utile ol tbe original goes Into tbe nieulb of tbe drinker. Tuis tnalcss.tbe business nearly all profit. And now here comes in an important adjuool to the liquor business. A billiard table or something of that kind retains the custom ers and brings the second drink; but then It encourages loafing aod that your .true bar lender despise. Tbe model customer is your well dressed man wbo walks rigbt in calls for what be wants, asks tbe bar lendei lo "join him," lays down the money, picks up a coffee grain and walks out. The "so cial glass," where three or lour men stand and talk, though profitable, as each will treat before leavlag, Is nevertheless a nuts aoee, because some ol them are lure to be come boisiarous and llablcjio injure Ibe ret utation ol tbe house. It Is not, however, the uaugbty men aloue who are concerned in this business, for the gentlemen who is at the "coolessiiinal" says that, where the bar is connected with a hotel, ladies can be ac eommodttled. Tbey walk up lo tbe parlor, ring tbe bell, and send tbe Servant. Ladies always want bot wbtsky, or whisky so aiithl. Drinks sent out are charged 15 cenis. The path of tbe bar lender is not always one oi roses. He regards drunken meu as u abomination. This bigb toned seuailive gentleman, who deals out dauiuatlou by the drink, despises tbe product of his work. A mao who gets drunk at one bar aud then reels Into another gets vary soahy treat. meat. Of course geallemau wauls logo n a blow out once lo a while. Tne geui teet way to do this Ib to take a room al a hotel with three beds and three companions aod order up fifteen cent drinks until all three are completely drunk and-tben go to lo bed and sleep It off. Tbe Colonel's friend was confideot that drtnkiag would be kept up as long as time endured, and had no patience with the talk about ragged obit dren, suffering wives, agonized children and dyiug drunkards. He thought when a man bad enough he should quit, and if be made a fool of himself It was none of the bar tender's business. Wss ever a more graphic sketch of a bar tender giveol Colonel Montgomery is entitled to tbe thanks of the public for so faithful a portrait of this heartless and conscienceless wretch. We were about to liy boast, but no beast bas ever yet voluntarily engaged in tbe liquor ousioess. Springfield Republican. Oil Is down to about $2-00 a barrel, and anullmaiket.
