Her physician and friends are much con cerned about her condition. May the little sufftiror soon take a turn for the better. Kttbinson & Banner are digging up and relaying the drain from the Central House cellar. This is the third or fourth time the same drain has been overhauled, and we suppose they'll make an everlasting job out of it this time. Messrs. Raisig & Blume have lately turned out a couple of wagons and a hack, which are models of beauty and finish. We don't see why people should send away for these articles when they can be built here as cheaply, and in many respects far better than the foreign makes. Pat ronize home industries. Mr. Henry Shoemaker returned to Tionesta with his family, on Thurs day last, from Atchison, Kansas, where they have lived for the past two years, lie don't like that section worth a cent. Duriug the cold weather last winter he had the misfortune to freeze his feet budly, from the ef!ects of which ho was laid up several weeks. A Moat appauling steamboat dis aster took place near New London. Ontario, on' Thursday of last week. An excursion steamer, greatly over loaded with passengers was returning to that place, whsn it suddenly cap cised, throwing all the passengers into the water. Over 200 dead bodies have Already been recovered, and many more are still missing. A grand Fourth of July celebra tion will take place at the Centennial grounds in Philadelphia this year under the auspices of the Bi-Ceatennial Association of Penn'a. This Associa tion is laboring dilligently to provide an imposing celebration for the two hundrcth Anniversary of the founding of Pennsylvania by William Tenn, iu 1882, to which the ensuing celebration is the preparatory move. At Chautauqua there are a large number of buildings going up and old visitors will notice that the trees have been thinned out to a great extent, thus giving a better view of the lake. Property commands a high price, but there has been a number of sales made this spring and most of the buildings now erecting are being built for resi-. deuces of tho owners, so that an ele gant class of cottages will be con structed. Religious services are now held every Sunday. Venango Citizen. We publish to-day the epeech of Hou.'E. L. Davis, en the Railroad fence bill, before tho House of Repre sentatives, of which we ask a perusal by our readers. Mr.' Davi3 labored hard for this bill, and had gotten it well along in the House, but the "wise men of the East," aided by the biased Speaker of the House, seem to have been to much for the friends of the bill, and it was lost. It was a good meas ure, and would have been an excellent thing for the maoy citizens of this county. There is nothing new to report about oil matters in this county since our last issue. Berry & Co., have started the drill in their Balltown well and with good luck will finish it in abeut two weeks. Mr. Keeler says the rig of the new venture of Mr. Cornwell will be up in a week or ten days and drilling commence immedi ately. In the Blue Jay district there are some wells which will be due in a short time, which will further demon strate the existence of oil there, and define the course of the belt. An exchange remarks that "When a hen lays an egg she cockles. When a man gets iu a new stock of goods it is human for him to crow over it. When he cackles, people know that he has laid in some fresh stock and feels rather proud over it. When the mer chant opens his new styles aad blows his trumpet in the newspapers the peo ple know that he has something on haud worth advertising and patronize him accordingly.' When he lies still and says nothing about it they knvw it is the same old stock which they have so often seeu." Mr. Wm. W. Thomas, one of our widest subscribers, called upon us Monday, and conveyed the bad news of the burning ou Tuesday of last week, of his ihiugle mill, situate cn Littie Coon, about a mile uud a half from Tylersburg, Clarion county, and about a mile from the Forest county line. The fire otigiuated from sparks from the arch blown among the dry shav ings, and so rapidly did it spread that nothing in the mill could be saved. His loss will be between $400 and $500 dollars; no insuauce. We are very sorry for Mr. Thotaas, as be had just get in a fair way to make and lay by some money, and the loss just at this time falls rather heavily. But he is not a man to sit down and whine about such matters, but proposes to go to work and rebuild the mill forth with, and we hope he'll have better luck next time, and rapidly recover his loss. Don't Forget it ! We resurt to ao advertising dodges, uor put out any baits, but give our patrons goods they want at as low prices as can be done. It. ROBINHOX & BoiiK.

Last Saturday afternoon Prothono tary Shawkey met with a rery severe accident, and one that will probably lay him up for several weeks, and may cripplo him for life. He was assisting at the raising of Holem&n & Hopkins' store building, and while holding a crowbar in one of the mortices to keep a bent which was being raised from slipping, the mortice on the other side gave away, allowing the bent to shoot out and come down with a crash. One of the heavy timbers fell ou Mr. Shaw key's foot, while ho fell backward, his foot still held by the timber and his body hanging over the edge ; he hung for au instant only and then fell to the ground, a distance of nearly sixteen feet, striking on the rocks with his head and shoulder. Ho was picked up and carried into Dr. Blaine' office, who dressed his wounds, and soon had him feeling raith easier. A frightful gash was cut iu his head, but his skull was not fractured; his shoulder and left side were badly bruised, and for a time it was feared ho might be hurt internally, but the doctor has now no fears of this. His left foot received a terrible strain, having been held fast while he tipped backward, and it is doubtful if it will ever assume its natural shape again. His right foot and left shoulder were also badly bruised but not seriously. Altogether it was a terrible shock and Mr. Sh&wkey will be a long time re covering fully. Robert Huddleson, who was holding the side of the bent which gave way, received a blow on the shin, and Jaired Ilulings got a slight stroke about the face. They saved themselves from greater injury by jumping off the building. Several other men were ou the building at the tiuia but luckily escaped injury. ANOTHER ACCIDENT. It is with regret we learn that Mr. James Myers, who lives a short dis tance below the mouth of Stewarts Run. received a severe cut with an ax with which he was cutting brush near home, on Monday afternoon last. In some manner unknown to him the ax a large double bit glanced and struck him on the inside of the right ankle, cutting through the boot and entering the flesh making a frightful cut several inches ia length, and sev ering the internal malleolus, or pro jecting bone of the ankle. He was taken to the house of his brother-in-law Mr. Ira Van Giesen, and a doctor summoned. Dr. Cobum, the attend ing physician, visited him at midnight on the evening of the accident and found him in great pain. The wound was stitched and bandaged, and by Tuesday morning he was able to be moved to his home. The Dr. thinks it a serious afTair, likely to permanently disable the ankle joint, although with good care and no bad luck it is possi bla the result will not prove so seri ous. Killed by Lightning. The heavy thunder storm which passed over the northern part of Clarion county Monday evening was not without its fatal results. A boy named Alexander Harkenrider, aged about 13 years, and living with his widowed mother on a farm in Wash ington township, two miles this side of Fryburg, Cloriou Co., was instantly killed by a stroke of lightning. He was in the barnyard at the time, and his mother stood within twenty feet of him when the bolt came, but was not injured. No marks could be found on his person; the back of his hat rim was slightly torn and his shirt caught fire in the back. The boy was the only real help the bereaved lady had left, her husband, two daughters and an elder eon having all been taken off very suddenly by diphtheria four or five years ago. Sho has tho sincere sympathy of the entire neighborhood, over which the sad affair has cast a gloom. The boy was a cousin of Mrs. Thomas Hassey of this place. A Losing Joke A prominent phy sician of Pittsburgh said jokingly to a lady patient who was complainiug of her continued ill health, and of his in ability to cure her, "try Hop Bitters!" The lady took it iu earnest and used the Bitters, from which she obtained permanent health. She now laughs at the doctor for his joke, but he i not so well pleased with it, as it cost him a good patient. JIarrieburg Patriot. v Goods cheap ut iug. 11,S0. Haslkt & Sons. Hnllrond RumLlirifjs. The eogineors are now at work cross sectioning the raijway from Irvincton to Salamanca. The Construction Company have taken charge of ihe work and expect to complete the en tire line in ninety days. Somo changes are being made from tho location as laid down by the company's engineer! last winter. A change will be made from State Line to Salamanca. The' former location, crossed the river from the cast side to the west side ot Ono ville, and continued up the River to Red House, and crossed to the east side, thence up the cast ide to Sala manca, where it recroases to the west side. The B. P. & W. Co., having bought the survey, lease, right-of-way, Ac, of the Rochester and State Line R. R., will occupy their line on the east side of the river from Wolf Run to Salamanca. County Surveyor Whittekin will have charge of making the change of location and is at work doing so now. It will require about three weeks to complete the job, when it is expected he will commence work on our much talked of Tionesta R. R., and stick to it until we shall hear con ductors call out the names ef the va rious stations along the line, and hear the shrill whistle echoing among the hilis along the Tionesta creek. We also learn that the greater part of cross sectioning of the Brocton & Buffalo branch of tho B. P. & W. R'y, has been finished and work commerced last Monday. Barnett Bubbles. Phil o Williams is able to be at work again. Our Sunday Schools are in progress again with a good attendance. Oran Butterfield Jr is a student of the Corsica Academy this summer. Mr. Van Sreinburg had the misfor tune to have his hand drawn into the shingle saw on the Coleman Mill, thereby losing one finger and cuttiDg another quite badly. Fish, fish suckers of course maybe. -Cartwright shot 90 in one day last week. Mike Dankel killed a big one the daddy of 'era all. The water is assumiug a dirty blue black appearance a consequence ot "those tanneries" aud spearing isn't real good. Some of our boys over in Jefferson have done, gone, and left the rauks of the single file ; Greel Kolz and Nan nie McNeal are now one by virtue of the "civil contract." and Wm. Gollan and Aquilla Wallace aie also a unit in the eyes of the law. The good wishes of all go with them. Ten sheep six belonging to Peter Gadley and four to bteve Maze strayed awav early last fall : their whereabouts were unknown, it being supposed they had been destroyed in some way perishing through the weathsr or being killed by do or wild beasts ; some sheep were seen in the vicinity of McCloskey's shanties during the winter, but excited no com ment as they were supposed to have found their way out along tho road from Mr. Gadley's farm ; as was sub sequently ascertained these were the missing animals. Early iu the spring Mr. Gadley heard that some sheep had been 6een iu the vicinity of Sheriff's Mill, and became ratisfied that they were his sheep; accordingly not long ago, in company with Mr. Love, he went out and caught aad brought home his recreant flock. Strange to say the sheep seem to have suffered ia no way from their self improvised pri vations. w A daring attempt at robbery was made on Friday evening. Andy Sloughenhoupt had turned his horecs to pasture in the field just below the church; on goiDg to the field Saturday morning he found his horses gooe. Wm. Williams also found that his bridles had goae ; tho facts in the case pointing conclusively to the conclusion that the horses bad been stolen a party was quickly organized to rearch for the horses and their self-improvised possessors. It was found that the thieves had started up the creek with their booty ; they appear to have been at fault for they had taken the Ship pen road, but after going along it for some distance had returned and taken the Millstone road. Mr. Wiugard, who lives at Butteuwoad Eddy, heard horses passing his house about ten o'clock; the searchers, following the trail up the creek, found tho horses ou tho road just below Millstone, return ing alone. It is supposed the thieves fouad the hordes too tired to travel fast enough to escape with them, us Mr, ijlouhcjnhaijpt had been working them hard on Friday.',, It i.i evident it was lo green hand who did the bus iness, as the bridles were "put tip in good shape when -the horses were found'; the hilching strap was missing from one of the bridles. , Qlilus.
