Davis' Mnchine Shop, wa take from
. t T ....... 1
me vennnpo iife-n :
We are glad to announce tliat the
Dew machine shop for manufacturing
engines, owned by E. L. Davis, is in
running order, and is row ready to
mi ail orders lor engines and boilers
of every desired style and size, from
ten to sixty horse power. Mr. Davis
lias been to ft heavy expense in fitting
up me nne enop erected by Mr.
Brough, a year or two since, ou Buf
falo street, and has in operation some
of the finest and heaviest machinery
in the city, and is turning out engines
oi superior pattern and finish, known
as tha Brett Engine, said to be the
bast finished and most substantial en
gine inside or outside the oil region,
giving unqualified satisfaction to all
those who have used them. In con
nection with the machine shop he has
a large and commodious foundry, fit
ted up in first-clnsa stylo, in every
particular, and with commendable en
ergy and business tact, is building up
for himself and the city of his adop
tion an establishment that will be a
credit to the place and a source of
profit and pride to the owner. We
must say that it requires great nerve
and business capacity to organize and
carry out a scheme of this kind suc
cessfully, in times of financial depres
sion, but we confidently predict a
grand success to tho establishment,
and a permanent and profitable busi
ness, so long as the country pours out
its oleaginous fluid. Wo would uige
npon our oil men the advantage to
them of pu rchasing their engines and
boilers in Franklin, it being the most
central location in the oil region, and
having the best of shippiug facilities,
as well as the convenience of having
on hand all the machinery and parts
of machinery, without sending off to
Buffalo, Erie or' some other distant
city for them, thereby saving valuable
time as well as extra expense.
Mr. Davis intends to spare no time
or expense to make bis engines and
boilers the first in tho market, and
will gurantee all work sent from his
shop.
Mr. K. Brett, the gontleinauly super
intendent, has had several years ex
perience in tho engine business. His
extensive acquaiutanco among the oil
men and his acknowledged ability as
a salesman, will add largely to the
popularity of the establishment.
Making engines and boilers is the
ole business of tho concern, and if
our oil men will consult their own in
terests and liberally patronize this
new enterprise, they "will see it devel
ope into business equal to any in the
country.
Svicide A young man named I.
P. Canficld, age twenty-two years,
committed suicide on the McQuad
farm, noil a portion of the county
poor farm, in Sugarcreek township,
on Thursday morning last about 10
o'clook, by shooting himself through
tho head with a revolver.
From the evidence giveu before t!io
Coroner's jury, wo learn that young
Cantield had resided with his parents
about two miles below Meadville,
near tho railroad juenlion, until June
2dd, whon he came to 8ugrcreek
township to visit his brother-in-law?
Mr. Hoot, who resides on tho McCal-
roont farm, and also to visit lug broth
er, D. 11. Canfield, who is putting
down a well on the McQuaid farm,
and who, together with the other
hands at work on the well, board
themselves in a shanty near their
work.
Last Fall Canfield was very ill
with the typhpoid fever, sineo which
time he has been in a melaucholly
state of mind, aud at times has given
evidence of insanity. At cno time
while at home, near Meadville, he
became so bad that his father sent
for his brother mid brother-in-law to
come home and take caro of him.
II became better after n few days,
but never teemed entirely right iu his
iniftrl.
Ou Tuesday morning he left the
hanty before breakfast, and went to
the welt, where ho stayed until his
brother and hands came to work.
They urged him to go and get his
breakfast, but he made tonic excuse
ftr not going. About half past nine
o'clock Tie lull the well and went to
tha shanty, and was noticed sitting
in front of the door by (lersons pass
ing. About ten o'clock Mr. M.
Jiouia aud auothor friuud of the do
ceal went from t'jis city to see him,
and after calling at the well and not
finding Liu, they proceeded towards
(he shanty, and when within a short
Astatic of it they heard a pistol shot.
They ruahed into the houb and to
lie rear room, which is occupied as a
bedroom, reaching it just in time to
aea Canfinld fall to the door. His
face was covered with blood, and au
lamination showiug that ha had shot
himself in the forehead. The bull
penetrated the frontal bane near the
rent re, entering the brain about one
IxUfutt) of an huh to tha left of the
medium line, )! ng backward and
atti.'t tin occipital bona.

the shooting.
It appears that the brother of the
deceased was in tie habit of sleeping
with a revolver under his pillow, and
had neglected to remove it on the
morning of the faint day; With this
weapon the terrible need was com
mitted. It was found, covered with
blood, upen one of the beds in the
room.
The Coroner, Isaiah Corbctt, was
notified, and proceeded to the ground,
impannelcd a jury, who returned the
following vsrdiet :

Venango Citizen.
The following items are taken
from the Brookville Republican :
A stranger, evidently insane, was
arrested last evening and confined to
jail. During the night he set fire to
his bed, and narrowly escaped burn
ing himself up, as well as settiucr fire
to the building.
A number of our citizens have been
actively circulating a subscription pa-
ici, swiiiiiiig reuci lor uiose wno BUI
fered from the late fire in Corisca and
we nro pleased to know that their ef
forts have been very successful, our
people generally giving liberally, ag
gregating a large amount total, lu
our mext issno we expect to be able to
give the amount thus donated.
On Sunday last, a number of small
boys, while fishing in Sandy Lick
creek near Kitley's Mill caught a
ssck or bag upon their hook, and up
on drawing it tip out of the wattr,
discovered the foot and leg of an in
fant protruding. The discovery ofthe
child, which was in an advanced stagejof
decomposition, baling been in the wa
ter for some length of time, caused a
commotion iu the neighborhood, and
word was sent to Justice Henderson,
who on Monday morning summoned
Dr. W. J. Mcknight, and proceeded
t the place where the infant was
found to bold an inquest. A jurv
was impaneled, tho body examineJ.
and wituessjs called, and after a full
investigation the jury returned a ver
dict, that the body was that of an un-
Kuowu child, ot lull time, and the
cause of its death unknown. The
body had so far decomposed as to
pre vein an examination as to the cause
of it's death, but the supposition is
that it was put out of the wsy by its
parents, and suspicions are attached
to parties who some time sinco left
the couuty.
The following items ara taken
from the Clarion Democrat:
A man named Collett, who re
sides in Clarion township, was serious
ly injured in btraltauvillo, last batur
day, by his team running away and
throwing tiuu out ot tho wngen. the
team ran against Jas. Maflett's hack
and upset it, throw ing Mr. M., and
ins cniiuren out, uui tney were not
much hurt.
No furthor. deaths have occurred
from small pox at Cooksburg, and
there are only eight cases, and they
are conuncd to a lew lu mines and not
considered dangerous. The disease
has not spread, hut people up in that
section are gratly alarmed, and vac
cination is a popular practice.
Some scamps of boys of this town
did the most brutal trick ou Friday
evening of last week that wo have
ever been called on to note in our lo
cal chronicles. They caught a poor
miseruble hound dog that had been
running around town for a few days,
and after pouring turpentine all over
him, setjireto him. Tho dog was soon
in flames and every hair on his bojy
was burned. In his agony he ran un
der the grecery store of Mr. Levi
Slianer, and it was with difficulty he
was taken out before the building
took fire.' The dog died the next day.
Such brutal treatment to even a poor
cur is shameful, whilo it showed no
smartness, and the perpetrators sheuld
be punished severely.
ap
The Lamuurton Bank Securi
ties. Our readers will remember the
sad suicido of tho chashier of Lainber
ton's Bank, at Franklin, a few months
ago, and the attempt of the man; pre
vious to shooting himself, to destroy
the bank's securities. A Washington
correspondent, under dato of last
Thursday, saysef the attempt torestore
the securities : "Treasury experts have
finished the work of restoring the se
curities of the Lambcrton Savings
Bank, Franklin, Pennsylvania, whieli
were thrown into the fire by the insane
cashier. Of $140,000 government
bonds, all were identified. Of the
6(10,000 railroad and municipal boud,
all were restored. Of 8150,000 notes
and bill receivable, all were restored
or made good by the parties interested.
The only loss of the bank has been
two or three thousand dollars in cur
rency. When received ct tho Trcas-
ashes and charred
rer. The experts were Mrs. Davis,
Miss Tatterson and Miss Schrimer.
The time occupied was about five
weeks of clear days. The work was
ci sucn a aencate natura that it could
not be prosecuted m cloudy weather
i iiifiourgn uaieiie.
I he Aew Orleans Picayune, of
the 30th tilt., in noticing the depar
ture of Col. Hays, of Meadville, who
has been acting Postmaster of New
Orleans for some time, pays the Colo
nej the following merited compliment
Col. J. C. Hays, tho efficient agent
of tha Post Oliice Department, who
took charge of tho oflice here when
the frauds were first discovered and
who has siuce so perservinirlv worked
up tho case, left Inst evening for his
nomo.
During his brief soiourn amonr us
Col. Hay, by his courtesy and gentle
manly bearing, hns won" the respect
aim esteem oi an our citizens who
have met him, and his untiriuir ener
ties in tha diftchnrcA nf ili .Inn,,.
dunes devolving upon him entitle him
to l no thanks ot all those who wish to
see our government olliccs purged of
irami ana corruption.
The regulations introduced by Col.
Hays iu the otlice here have civeu
great satisfaction to our merchants,
wno aro aaucu facilitated in their
business bv tho additional aerninino
dalions aflorded.
