Oi.Eoroi.tft Items Thinking the follow log items would be of interest te your read era we forward them for your coosiderstlon: THia place, like all other oil towns, lias bad its day, though not by any means dead yet. During tbe exoltement It boasted a bank, several stores, hotels, saloons, Ac. Now one hotel, tbe Allegheny House, pro vides for tba wants of residents and obanoa strangers. Tb railroad facilities are good, being tbe junction of tbe O. C. A A. R. and PI thole Valley railroads. Tbe latter road is graded through to rieassotville but the Iron It not laid as yet. Ws are retlably informed tbal It will be completed to this polot soon. Ths Solar Oil Works, formerly owned by PratberBros., are in full blast, capacity 600 barrels per day, Hlltou A Lang worthy, of Oil City, are tba ownevs. The old Horton well still produce oil In paying quantities. This Is an exceptional case at tbe Hodge A Ewlng well struck at 'be lame time failed years ago. Bradley A Jaokson are pumping three wells on the Walnut Island just below here wblob are produoing about 80(1 barrels per mouth. Our old friend and Instructor J. I. Mollr, still does tbe busioss of the Oil Creek road here. Johol" Is a first class agent and slicks to bis place well having been bare about seven years. The Tltusville Courier is engaged In wri ting up the history of tbe deserted oil towns of toe region. Ilere it what It lays of Tip Top : This is a name tbst old operators will dis Hoot If remember. Tbe place lies about two miles east of Plsostntville, and short distance west ol Pilhole. It was christened at time when operators were lively lo the vicinity, by an energetio young man wbo started a grocery. He took tbe beading of a barrel and carried it In tbe top of a tele graph pole, nailing it there and proclaimed tbe name of the pluoe "Tip Top." There were a hotel several boarding houses.n mil inary establishment, mictilue shop grocery stores, a bakery aid fruit aland. Business was lively. Tbe pines sprang up aft9r tbe PlensantviUe exo Moment began to cool i'owo. In its palmy days Tip Top could boast of quite a large population. But Its days or misr.irtuno came, dry holes were struck, produottno Ml off, and before tbe little town bad got a fair start in tbe world, the sheriff was on the ground doing a larger business than any o else. Tbe people scattered. Tbe bis-' Mng's fist disappeared. and now Tip T p a deserted village de serted by inhabitants and dwellings. There are la tbe vicinity a v small produoing wells, but tbe low price of oil will compel tbe shutting down ot most of these before snow flief,aod then ths owl can boot undis turbed from tbe derricks, and tbe wild fox may search In vain Mr chick en with which to tickle bis palate. Thus psssetb away the glory of our oil towns. Tbe people wbo once lot b. ted them are soattered and gone most i f them to the great Butler oil field, lo build 'up other wooden towns, which in tbeir turn will dis appear and become Ibings of tba past. In 1870 Tip Top wat lu us g ory, everybody bad confidence in lbs growth tnd prosperity of the laos, and tbe richness of the oil ter ritory atouod It. Now alt M changed. Scarcely a person who was here then tin be seen,now. But wblU it lasted there was fun and enjoyment and those wbo spent a lew moatbe at Tip Top will not be apt to soon forget it. A man about lorly years old aod womaa seemingly seventy years ofsge were at the Detroit and Milwaukee depot a few day ago waiting ror a train, when tbe man strolled tit oa ths dook and oaugbt sight of one o f the city life preservers banging to itt book. He ariced what It was and a laborer told him, and then be asked: "How long will it preserve teller's llfet" Tbe man told him hundred years, aod tba Information slaggsred tbe stranger. Walking rouod few minutes as If meditatlog, be stepped to bis Informaot and said: "See here, strang er, I'll lake ooe o'tbem preservers, and If It wouldn't be asking too much ol you I'd like to have you tell tbe .old woman In there that you haven't another one tor ale, aod that tbe machine wblob mid 'em has bust, ed.'

Tbe la. dlans outnumbered our troops five to one. Every available officer and man was In skirmiso line, which was in reality our bat tle tine.
