Dr. Hartley was called and dressed the wound, and he informs us that Mr. Flynn is not out of dangor al though he thinks he will recover. Frightful Accident Four nun badly scalded. One man dies from the effect of hi injuries.-' We learn the particulars of an accident that occurred on the Kane hill, last Wednesday, which are as follows: The engine, on which D. Fanuon Is engineer, was pushing a train up Kane hill, when the whole front of the engine was blown out, demolishing the caboose and deluging the occupants with hot water and steam. ThomasMoyer, one of the oldest conductors on the road, and conductor of the freight train was scalded so badly that he died from the effects of his injuries on Friday night He leaves a wifo and one or two child ren. Ginter, flagman on the freight train, and Bailey, brakeman, were also seriously injured, as was the fireman on Fannon'a engii e. The Injured men are iu a critical condition and there are doubts of their recovery We understand the cause of the accident to be an insufficient amount of water in the boilers ' Wilcox Notes. Wilcox, Pa. Oct. 16th, 1876. Bert Bevicr fell head first through a hole In the mill floor, a few days ago, upon a large belt that was in motion which skinned his head, face, and ears in a shocking manner. His foot was caught between tho belt and a pully. The mill being Just on the point of stopping his life was savod. Tho fall was about twelvo feet and it Is the greatest wonder that he escaped with his life. The Tanning Co. have a large cylinder or hollow drum, with pins or hooks inside in which Buffalo hides are softened by the revolving motion of tho drum. A few days ago a man by the name of Enos Heller, while removing hides from the same, stepped inside. The machinery was started and around went Mr. Helle with the hides. The drum being open it by some reason caught in the belt throwing it from tho pully thereby saving the poor fellow from being ground to atoms. About two weeks ago the Tunning Co. had half a dozen fat cattle killed by the cars on the P. A E R. R. I suppose if from some cause a train should jump the track, the whole Tanning Co. would be arrested on suspicion of having taken up tho rails. The weather is cold and croquet is about played out. It is amusing to sec the old veterans take a sad, linger ing, look at the .grounds, shake their heads, and pass silently away, wonder ing what they will do next. The mind at once turns to billiards, but it takes money to play that game, and tho croquetist has nary a red. The Rev. Mr. Hoffman is away on a threo weeks, vocation and Madam Rumor says he will bring a wife back with him. By tho way he is very- popular with the people here, not only with the church members but with uon professors. A n umber of people started Inst evening for the Centennial. Among them wo noticed Ernest Aldrich and his sister Jessie. John Bowers; clerk in the T. A L Co's. store, smiles more blandly than ever, it's Uie nrst one ana is a boy. That store seems to bo doing a thriving business for this is the third one among the clerks this summer. And speaking ,of babies reminds me of a neighbor that has two bright little boys and now has a little girl of which the older boy is very proud but the younger feels that his nose is a little bent. He says Grant is telling everybody of it. Says he told Uncle Tho. and Undo The. told Steven Smith, aud Steven Smith told Tom Vangasbcek and now it will be all over town.

Wcwish to urge upon the citizens of Elk County tho iniortance of having a good man in this position, and also of having a mau located at tho county seat, where it is almost Imperatively necessary an Associate Judge should bo located Theoffice is one of no political signifi cance, and should be filled by a man rather because he is competent than that he belongs to a certain party, and in this case the question of convenience enters largely into the contest. Now, we do not wish to be understood as iu any manner costing imputations on any of the candidates, as vo consider incni an nonorattic ana renubiu men But, it seems, that in an office of this kind, some little regard should be paid to the pubUc good Wehave one gen tleman, than whom no better can be found to fin the position named, who is a resident of Ridgway, and in no sense a po Itical man, although a n minee of the Republican partv. whom it is to the interest of the citizens of Elk County t' vote for. This man is HORACE LITTLE. There is a stmng effort In Mr. Little's behalf, and many Democrats in Ridg way, and throughout the county, will give him their v tes. You have the right to vote for two gentlemen for this position, and we hope whatever you do you will consider your interest, and the interest of Elk county, generally, and give Mr. Littleoneof the places on your ticket. There bos been few offices to bo filled in this county when the exigency of the cose demanded that Democrats as well as Republcans should join hands and help elect therlghtman, for the right place. There was a littlo party at Rhine's Hall, last Wednesday evening, near the close of which Leopold Rhine's and Jerry Thompson hod some words, resultlng.after a few preliminaries, in a "fisticuffs." Thompson's jaws were broken in two places, and his teeth loosened, from which injuries he suffers a terrible amount of pain Dr. Hartley says,Thompson will not be able to speak for five weeks, at least, aud that he considers the patient as doing verv well otherwise.

Senatorial Conference. As mentioned in yesterday's Issue the Republican conferees of the Thirty eighth Senatorial district met at TionosU yesterday for the purpose of selecting a candidate. This district is composed of Clarion, Forest, Elk and Cameron counties, and within its boundaries lies a portion of the oil field, one of tho greatest industries of the State, and the one most needing legislative representation. Tho con ferees of the different counties were cognizant of this, and on the second ballot Major Wetter, ono of Clarion's prominent oil men, was nominated unauimously. A better selection cculd scarcely have been made. Maj. Wetter is an influential citizen, devo ted to the oil business, and as a pro ducer understands the needs of our in dustry. As a business man his record is excellent, he having mado for him self a good Income from the oil busi ness, while as a gentleman and man of honor he is without a stain. The oil men of Clarion will be delighted with the selections made, and if elected we may rest assured that Maj. Wetter will watch tho interests of his con stituents with a zealous eye Oil City Derrick, ISDIAXA. THE OFFICIAL VOTE. Indianapolis, October 18.
