F.aokllo whiskey, which by tbs way they
do ssy Is none of the best. Bat to tbs ro

Oil Cily, and it It fair to presume the mix

M tbey left shortly for Titnsville. At the
Hub the fun urew fo fast and tbelr spirit'
were so much elevated by the Tltusvilla
spirits on top of the Oil Cily and Franklin
pirll, that on the way home tbey conclu
ded to stop at Petroleum Centre, Saturday
morning. Unfortunately, In their ralimar
tlon, local option was In force here, and f
they journeyed up street under the Influence
o the aforesaid evil spirits, John Clark
concluded to get up a ruction with a fair
l.ut frail female. At this juncture a new
actor in the person of Constable Burns up
pcared npon the scene, and notifbxl John to
keep the peace. John allowed It would
lake a heavier weight than Burns to make
him quit, whereupon Burns collared blm
nd despite the efforts of himself and com.
panlons, conveyed the belligerent John tu

John-being compelled to ride in an oil wa.

eeste f court, with th exception of Clark)
wko in the row having torn' Mr. Burns cnai'
almost oft bit back, was justly compelled to
pay for new one. . And thus ended the
Frucklio boja celebration. Undoubtedly
they departed sadder, and let us bope wirer

Alex. Foster, no old effender residing at

owned by our well knowa townsmen Messrs
Wordeo end Tajl.r. and Frank Holden.
The well yielded from elht o'olock Satur-

Tne Fourth passed off quietly. 51 r.st o
citizens celebrated at Oil City. Tbe U. P.
Church bd a plo nlc lor the children ol the
Sabbath School. Tho Olympic club met at
tbeir room and performed the following
wonderful ft-tin very much to the wonder
and nmiiseuu-ot of spectators. Wm. Lamb,
a perfect O'eatus. perlormed the extraordin
ary feat ol jumping beside himself a most
dangerous pe'forujoce. C. O. Culbertson,
with as much gracs as any Athenian, jump
ed under bitu.elf. This requires many
years of constant practice to be done rightly.
'Prof." Cumpton, with the superior train
ing given at Yale Cbcrry tree excelled
even Dr. Dwlght in lifting. This ended the
first o1 series of exhibitions to be given at
regular intervals.
It Is rather doubtful whether a well will
bo put down at all owing to the boggisb
ness of company's owniog lands in this viz
cinity. One agent representing a N. Y
Co., only wants to give an acre lease one
half royalty. He ought to have said a
thousand dollars bonus as well. Such ra
pacity Is rarely met with in tbe oil region
Our Teutonic frlendsoelebrated the fourth'
by holding sort of tteogerfest. Plenty ol
lager aud vocal muoic 'and a good time all
to themselves.

A Grcut Horror Done Away
With.
Houee cleaning is a great horror to nine
men out of every too. When that time
ojmes the "mea folks," as a rule, give tbe
domestio beartb a "wide berth." Oceans
ol suds the product ot tons of soap tairly
flood every part ol the bouse. Tbe women,
from the mistress down, labor at Ibey never
worked before, and what with the discom
fort, tbe smell of suds und tbe dampness,
and nut uufrequently sickness, the product
of colds and overwork, matters are gener
ally disagreeable. Tbe simple use of
Sapolio instead of soap does away with all
this discomfort. It lightena tbe labor a
hundred per cent, because it removes dirt,
grease, stains and spots, with hardly any
labor, with but little water, and in one
tenth tbe usual time.
