Henry A. Parsons, Jr., - Editor THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1879. Republican State Convention. The Republicans of Pennsylvnrtia, and all others In fnvor of nil Honest Currency and the faithful discharge of National Obligations, and opposed to Communism and the Restoration to Power In the National Government of the influences which produced the Re bellion of 1861, are requested to send delegates apportioned to their rcpre sentutiou"ln the Legislature, to a Con vention to meet at Harrisburg, at 12 M. on the 23d day of July next, to nominate a candidate for State Treas urer, and transact such other business as may be brought before It. M. 8. QUAY, Chairman Stae Committee. Philadelphia, June 9, 1879. Hot Springs has a counterpart of the Beecher-Tllton case. The Rev. Henry Butler, a negro, is the accused clergyman, and the woman, after making a written confession to her husband, denied Us truth. There is to be a church trial. An earthen bowl, filled with rice and fish, with four lighted candles stuck Into It, and the whole sur mounted by a calf's head, was found on the stoop of a New Orleans house. Somebody had undertaken to put the inmates under a voudoo spell. -James Murphy betrayed his pals In a Texas stage robbery three months ago. Apprehending revenge, he after ward voluntarily slept In jail, and went heavily armed by day; but his precautions were not sufficient, and he has been killed with poison. The safe In the Arlington mill at Lawrence, Mass., was opened In the night, three months ago, and $4,5000 stolen. Paymaster Walnwright was suspected, although he was President of a Young Men's Christian Associa tion, and he was compelled to resign his position. The real thieves have just been detected. A lady of Augusta, Ga.t died not long ago and bequeathed $05,000 to charitable Institutions. The natural heirs feel positive that they are more In need of money than the institutions named, so having been defeated in the lower courts will carry the case on until doubtless they will have spent more than the original amount In gaining the case. Fort Robinson, June 11. The daily passenger coach of the Sidney and Black Hills company, which left Sid ney on Monday morning for Dead wood, was spopped a few miles north of Cheyenne river on Tuesday at mid night by five masked robbers. The passengers, four in number, were robbed of their money and valuables and the mail sacks were cut open and their contents thrown on the road, the robbers taking the registered packuges. Having made a successful clean-up, the robbers allowed the coach to pro ceed on Its northern journey. Allen's barn was burned at Pono ra, O., and it was believed that Min nlch and Willis kindled the fire. Allen and some of his friends dug a grave, carried the suspected men to it, made them kneel at the side of the hole, held guns to their heads, and commanded them to confess. How ever, this treatment did not extort a confession, and Allen was srbsequeutly fined $100 for outrage. A few Dayton boys, having heard of the Sonora affair, took even more cruel measures to make a playfellow confess some trifling offence. They held his bare feet close to a flame until the soles were badly burned. There is a story that a wealthy Chicago mefchant lately prevented the breaking of his will by calling his rela tives about his death-bed and getting them to make affidavit before a notary that he was competent to make a will. After the funeral it was found that all the property was given to a lunatio asylum. Then the heirs tried to have the will set aside by showing that though sane at the last, in 1875 when the will was made he was raving mad. Thereupon the executor produced a will exactly like the first, except that it was signed and witnessed a few minutes before the affidavits as to the testator's sanity was taken. Norman Spencer stole $17,600 from the Pennsylvania Oil Company, that employed him as book-keeper, and fled to the Southwest. The robbery was carefully planned, and the thief's in tention was to take a new name, settle down as a planter, and marry the Ti tusville girl to whom he had long been engaged. She knew all about this scheme, and was to join him as soon as practicable. A detective was set to watch her, and when she started west ward, after receiving a mysterious let ter, he guessed she meant to join her lover. He shadowed her on the jour ney so closely that she became aware of his watching. At Quincy, 111., she hired a woman of about her own size and shape to put on her traveling suit, cover her face with a veil, and go to Chicago. The detective unsuspect ingly followed the wrong woman, while the real one went on to meet the fugitive thief. Meanwhile Spencer bad bought a plantation near Galves ton, Texas, an fallen in love with a neighbor's beautiful daughter. De siring to marry her, he wrote to the . TitUHville girl at a point on her jour ney that she need not come to him. The Tltusvilte girl was as quick a revenge as she bad been at deceiving the detective. She at one informed the police where Spencer was, and he b been arrested. The Oil ArrlTC. From the 'Wllllnmftport O. nnd ?. At last oil is flowing from the Brad ford district to WllllariiHport. As be fore stated ; in these .columns, the pumps of the Tidewater pump com pany begnn pumping oil Into their line on Wednesday of lost Week. Thursday evening, nt 7:10 and a few seconds, the first oil came out of the pipes at this end of the lino, and flowed Into tho receiving tnnk on Thomas hill. The time required for It to traverso the. hundred miles of pipe was a little longer than had been counted upon, but biking everything into consideration, there Was no cause for dissatisfaction over the result. The number present to see the first oil arrive was not as great as would nat uraily have been expected, although the uncertainty as to the precise lime when it would appear may partly ac count for this. Those present Includ ing officers and employes of tho com pany at this end of the line, producers and others. Intense excitement ex isted among those near the tank, when the first oil gushed out of the six inch pipe and Into the tank. Many bottles were filled from the first oil secured. One of these bottles were left ut the Gazette and Bulletin office yester day evening by Mr. H. F. Northrup. Numerous dispatches were sent away lust night, to the oil region and else where, announcing that the oil had reached Williamsport. Theoilcameout of the pipe in strong volume, and has been coming right along at the rate of two hundred and fifty barrels per hour. Those who would not put any faith in the pipe line until oil should begin flowing into Williamsport, are now converted, and are ready to rejoice with the rest. The tanks will fill up, of course, at the rate of 6,000 barrels per day, but as ship ping to the seaboard will commence by Saturday a large number of cars being now in the city ready to load the stock lu the tuuks will be thus kept down. The tankage capacity as is already known, is about 60,000 barrels. At pump station No. '2 there is tankage-for 2,400 barrels, while Cory vllle, the starting point of the line, the tankage is sufficient for 51,100 hnrrels. The line is working admirable It is a matter of surprise to everyone, when the size of the pipe and the dis tance are considered, that so little in the way of defects has been found. The work of putting down the pipe has been very thoroughly done, the great pressure to which the line is subjected not appearing to afTect it in the least. The pressure varies nt dif ferent points along the line. The greatest, when pumping is in progress, is at Pine creek near Waterville. At this point the oil falls a distance of 1, 520 feet, and then rises a distance of 1,100 feet. When tho pumps are still the greatest pressure is ut tho Wil liamsport end of the line. The lowest point on the route is at Lycoming creek, less than three miles from the terminus. It is now announced upon pretty good authority, thut the total expense of the enterprise has been at least $750,000. There are other miscellan eous amounts not included in this sum. The expenses, at the seaboard end of the line, in fitting up the re ceiving and shipping grounds, were at least $18,000. Mr. Charles Foster, Republican candidate for Governor of Ohio, in a Speech at Columbus, O., recently, thus defined his position on the currency: " On the question of finance the Re publican party occupies high ground. It lias stood from the beginningfor na tional honor, for national faith, and for national credit. Itstands there to day. During the dark days of our bloody Rebellion, when the life of the nation was imperilled, we had to use the credit of this notion to save its life. We pledged ourselves then that when the war was over we would redeem the greenbacks. For fifteen long years we have been struggling to re deem that pledge. We have had to fight for the fulfillment of this pledge against the force of the Democratic party North anil South. A nd than k God to-day through the courage of an Ohio man and the faithfulness of the Re publican party that pledge is redeemed, and the greenback dollar is worth a hundred cents in every pocket of the country. The ploughholder and the bondholder have a currency of equal value. Now, fellow citizens, we Re publicans propose to stand there; we propose to maintain this national credit against all opposers, whether they be Ewing men or Greenbackers, or what not. We propose to stand by the national faith and the national honor." Collector Beard of Boston, in an address at the dinner of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company in that city, said: "There is no danger of the one man power in our national government, limited as it is by the Constitution. The prophecy of the man on horse back, foretoldnot long ago and recently rehearsed in an oration in honor of the prophet, will not be fulfilled in our day nor in our children's day. The tendency is for the legislative to en croach on the executive in all govern ments, and it takes firmness for a state or national executive to muintuin the just rights of his office. The people like the man who, like Jackson, 'takes the responsibility,' and a conscientious Judicious and firm exercise of the veto power In the interest of the people will le sustained by the people. Nor have we any danger from the centralization of power in the national government. The limits of the Constitution, the compact organization of the state gov ernments, component elements of Congress itself, the vast extent of ter ritory, all preclude the dtingtr of an undue exercise of power by thejia tioual government as against the states. The danger Is far greater that Individual rights will sutler within the states because of the weakness of the national trovernment than that the rights of states will be encroached upon." A boy in Crawford county, Ind., married when be was 17, and was a father at 18. He lately married a second wife, and now, at the age of 80, is bappy with a second child. There is sixty-two years difference in the ages of the two children. EXECUTOR'S SALE.
