The skatincr on the river at this writing is "just too lovely for uny thing," so the gins say, and the lovers ol the graceful art are taking due ad vantage of it. newspaper may print a hunure' pulls, and clever notices of people, aud get noibanks, but let it reflect in the least v any persou in the community andA is abused roundly. The merry jingle of sleigh bells occasionally breaks upon ones ears, but when you look nut and tee the rough bubs and stones protuding the longing to handle the reiusatenca takes flight A anther time table nn the P.

A condensed table wil be fouud at the head of this colurau "Dad" lluliogs killed a nice doe on Little Tiunesta creek last Thursdaf, Ww. Weutworth killed a fine buck near the same place, and Geo. Arm strong killed bis Erst deer, a good sired fawn, on Tubbs Run, the same day. Since then the bunting has been poor and no deer have been killed that we know of. Rev. J. Barnhart, formerly pastor of the F. M. Church of this place, has been assigned to New Wilmington, Lawrence county, Ta. The church will have an earnest worker in Rev. Barubart. Mr. J. II. Derickson has been with bis father, in Meadville for the past week, who is lying very low with a protracted illness. Mrs. Derickson, who has been on a visit to relatuea in East Brady, has returned. Some of our citizens who have profited by experience are already laying in their eupply of ice for next summer's consumption. Mr. Jackson is putting up a very nice article, clear, blue and eight or niuo inches thick. Morris Eitsteii has started n branch store iu Sheffield, Warren Co. lis brother, Samuel has moved to that place aud will take charge of the new store. Their many fiitnds will be sorry to lose them as citizens and ffghbors, but will wish them a pleasant future. The prospects are good for a rail road connnctiug Bradford with Warren in a few month, even if Warreu cap italists don't invest. Last week a parly f surveyors left Bradford, intending to survey a route to Warreu, "taking in (he new oil fields,'" according to the Bradford Star.. Warren Mail. - Mr. Geo. F. Kribbs, editor of the Clarion Democrat haa taken unto him self a wifa iu the person of Miss Martha Rodgers, of Brookville. It requires a good deal of nerve to bring an editor up to that pitch where he feels justified in starving a wife, aud we congratulate Editor Kribbe upon the "sand" he displays in taking the step. Sim. Cegan met with an accident while taking out'tiinber ou Fork Run, ast Wednesday, which, if his upper story nauo't been pretty sound, might have caused him to shuffle of this mortal coil. A limb fell about SO feet striking bins a glancing blow nn top of the head cutting a gash about three inches in length, and laying the skull bare. He ia recovering all right and will smoii be able to try it over again, but we guess he wont. One of Forest county's native citizens, Mr. Homer Towner, who took u bis home iu Kansas nome five years ago, is back on a visit. He islookiug very natural and. that means the picture of health and happiness, and is being welcomed by bis numerous old friends in Forest. Homer is well pleused with bis Kansas home, and we believe is doing well there. We hope be will have a pleasaut visit among the scenes of his boyhood, and returu much benefited. Our old friend F. E. Mabie, of Eric, arrived in town yesterday morn ing and will remain sevtral days. He is looking unusually well and reports his folks iu good health. Frank is here in the interest of the Western Accident and Relief Association, a glance ai the workings of which will convince almost any one th&t it is a good thing for persons of modeiate means to iuvest in. We hope Frank will make his visit both profitable and pleasaut. An exchange gives the following wholesome advice: "Now mark nut a course of instructive reading for the winter months and Instead of wasting your time lounging around the corners or blocking up the way in store-rooms, stay at home in the evening and get your head full of useful knowledge. Two hours reading each evening during the wiuter would give a young man or woman an astonishing amount of information. Even a half hour a day would foot up wonderful by the time spring comes around again." Take Notice 1 . Don't forget it 1 ! Paste this in your hat 1 1 1 The boss of this shanty, did, on the morning of Thauksgiviug, between the hours of 9 and 10, about two miles from this place, with malice aforethought, and against the peace and diguity of the other fellows standing around to get a shot, kill a buck, the like of which has not been see'i around here for some tiaie, weighing 172 pounds, dressed. And still we live. But have been eoraewhat unsettled since. To Jairus Reck, who, with a bell hung to his neck, dogged the antlered stag to us, belongs a good shar of the ciedit; and to the rest of the party who allowed us to stand "just in the right spot,' we tender many thanks ; also to the committee of gentlemen who vol unteered thtir services to set up with us during the ensuing night. A double weddrog took place up at Nebraska, on Saturday last. The high contracting patties were Mr. Aaron B. Root,. Jr., to Miss Lvdia Haslet of Green township; and Mr. Chas Dunham of Brookville, to Miss Tennie Root of Green township. The ceremnoy was performed by II. W. Ledebur, Esq. The young couples, after a few days' absence, laid in stores and will immediately go to house keeping like sensible folks. May they enjoy the full blessings of trotting duwn life' rugged pathway in double harness. Dr. W. II. Grimm, and Mr. D. R. Wilkinson, of Beaver Falls, Pa , have been here for a week past, on a deer hunting expedition. They have had poor success thus far but have the grit to stick to it until they get a deer, The Doctor, on Monday, slayed a peculiar specimen of red fox, making a most brilliant shot. It is we believe, known as the "short haired" species, at least the hair are quite short, and the tail instead of being long and bushy, more closely resembles that of a rat. It is, to ear the least, a queer specimen, and we hope the Doctor will have it seut to some emi uent taxidermist aud have it "set up,' or, if he don't feel inclined to do that we'll let him off if he will "set 'em up to the boys before leaving. P. S. Upon closer examination the animal is thought, by experts to be closely allied to the canine race. Later. Since the above was put in type these gentlemen have returned home, having killed a fiue buck fawn. They made many friends while here who will warmly wtlcome them back at any time. Last Friday two brothers named Shott went bunting for deer near their father's residence about two miles from Tylersburg. The older brother went to the "crossing," while the younger followed the trail to drive the deer in. Either the deer had crossed before the one brother arrived at the "crossing, or else be did not see it. tor when his brother came along on the trail he slipped aud fell, and the older brother mistaking him for the deer fired away, sending the ball nearlr through his right thigh. Dr, McCormick, of Tylersburg was sura raned ; also Dr. Blaine. The bal was found on the undtr side wf the leg and extracted by the doctors, who also fouud that the bone was uninjured as well as the blood vessels, bo the man's deliverance from such a close call was very lucky. As Dr. Blaine rode through towu on his way home nearly every one was asking "who was shot and who shot him ?" The Doctor's only reply was, "Shott shot Shott." Chambers' "Library of Uni versa Knowledge," now in course of puhli cation by the Americin Book Ex change, of New York, is fast ap proachiug completioo. Vol. XrI. including the articles whose alphabet ical place comes between the titles "Pyrenees" and "Scleiogenidse," been published, and Vol. XIII., will fullow in a few days. Of the merits and the methods of this standard work, hich, in its complete form, is now so near publication, we do not need to speak at length. Its publishers con tinue to make a special offer to pur chasers of the fiflteu volumes compris ing the complete text of Chambers' Encyclopaedia ; the price for October beiug only $7. Those who need a cheap hut thoroughly trustworthy li brary of reference, neatly printed and strongly boiiud, should not let this opportunity pass, as the price is to be somewhat advanced ou the completion of the work. How often do we hear the ex pression. "You can't get anything iu a country town." But this is, iu many instances, a great mistake ; yet it is a mistake for which the merchants them selves are greatly to blame. Even in great cities, like New York, St. Louis and Chicago, dealers do not hesitate to advertise, to call the attention of the purchasing public to the fact that they keep the latest styles and newest novelties of the season ; while in a country town, if a merchant dares to bring home anything out of the ordin ary rut of calho and standard sheet ing, it geuerally lies ou his shelves because he takes such particular pains to keep his customers in ignorance of the fact that be has it for sale. Oue bulf of one per cent, of the retail price of any late novelty, expended in ad vertising, will sell the article. There era a thousand aud oue article which citv dea'era carrv in stock, which I might just a well be handled, with a splendid profit, by country merchant, f they would only let the public know they keep them. By s doing a (treat leal of money would be kept in town instead of being sent away to Erich, Butterick, Ridley, Adolph and other. Ex. The Fox Well. The Derrick of Mouday has an ex tended report of the new well on Blue Jay, at Fox's, hut nothing definite has yet come ti light as. to the probable results of the new strike. It is thought this well has oo connection with the Stoneham district, on acrount of the difference in ihe color of the oil, but is said to resemble that of Balllown very closely. It has not been torpedoed yet, but preparations are being made and it will undoubtedly be "shot" this week. Considerable interest seems to be felt in the final results of the new venture, aud this interest is not merely local but extends to the more promi nent operators aud producers. The Derrick's article concludes as follows : ' Opinions concerning the productive ness of the well differ greatly among leading operators.' One geutleman who visited it on Wednesday, and has been in the oil business si nee the creek ex citement, said it never would be a five barrel producer. A well known Brad ford operator was very cautious in his opinion, but was not sanguine, while John Galloway, the Stump Creek de tec tive, has a strcog belief in the d is covery of a large producing field. "But whatever the well may be it is too far from civilization to have any effect ou the stocks at preseut. it is in the heart of a wilderness, eight miles fiooi the first point of transportation, with no roa'ls or inhabitant. The cost of operating iu this field would be so great as to baukrupt the owner of a fifty barrel well ou ninety cent oil. In time it may be developed, but vo long as more promising fields of five or ten barrel well await the pro ducer, he will not seek a fortune in the wilds of Forest county." Should the "Blue Jay" prove to be a good well we have no fear of a lack of operations. Where there is oil in payiu quaoities it is never allowed to languish iu the bowels of the earth because the territory happins to be t little out of'thrt way of transportation Operators soon fiud means of transit, What they want to know is whether the fluid is theie. Next week we wi'l probably be able to give a more defi nite report. Neilltown Rustlings. If you want a good freh breeze direct from the labratory of old Boreas, unalloyed, untempered and uncompro mising just come up here and pitch your tent for the winter season. Thanksgiving was observed in a proper manuer by our good folks Besides the masticating of the proverb ial turkey, we note the gathering at the house of Mr. Demun, aud the Major's sleighriding party. Mr. Brady, oue of our citizens, will remove with his family to Bradford in the near futuro. May good luck attend him in his new home. Rob't Black cut his foot badly with an ax the other day. Aud you will give room right here for W. P. Black's treatment for cuts : Pulverize rosiu tiuely, and put in the cut; tie up, aud a cure is only a mstier of time. Prof. Ingell proposes giving a con cert at the close of his present term of singing. Tom Machessuey will leave us ; he is going to Stoueham. To of Park Kelly's children are sick with diphtheria ; oue, we are glad to Bay, is now better. James Fugle has moved ;nto the old hotel. Simon Fogle has gone tp Bradford. The revival meetings at Piueville have been closed. 1 ht meetings were productive of much good aud were characterized by the observance of good order throughout. bquire llotchkiss has beeu numbered among the ailiug, but is now able to be around again.
