Mr. II. O. Davis family are in

the death of their daughter, Emma,
Mrs. Davis has been very severely
nl!lictfd with fever, and al
though sho is uo.y in a fair way of re
covery, two of her daughters, Carrie
and Loon a have been taken down, and
are threatened with a serious attack.
Tho worst feature of tho caso is their
inability to procure proper nursing,
the people being afraid of contracting
tho disease. Many would gladly vol
unteer their ttivicL-ii but fur this
reason.

tho general excellence, of the paper.

The Salmon Creek Lumber Co.,

This company expect to build in the
neighborhood of 100 tenement houses

have nlready expended $20,000 at
that place, and expect to spend 835,000
more in puttiug up tho Extract
works, which are expected to be fin

these works were taken up from this

As A'ill bo seen by relerence'lo a
communication in this issue some of
the citizens are determined to protect
the pigeons, now coming into this sec
tion, from indiscriminate slaughter
while iu the roosting grounds. This
is as it Bhould be. We don't know
whether any shooting has as yet been
done, but it would seem that there has
been, vhich is wrong and ought to be
stopped. If parties want the birds to
roost or stay in this section, so that
they can enjoy the sport of getting a
few hereafter, tbey should not drive
them out by goiDg ioto the roosting
grounds and shooting. We have been
requested to state that the law on the
subject will be enforced 10 the letter.
When you wish to know what the
weather is te be, says an exchange, go
out and select the smallest cloud you
see. Keep your eye upon it, and if it
decreases and disappears it shows a
state of the air which is sure to be fol
lowed by dry weather; but, if it in
creases in size, take your great coat
with you if you are going far from
home, for falling weather is not far
off. The reason is this: when the air
is becoming charged with electricity
you will see every cloud attracting all
lesser ones towards it, until it gathers
into a shower ; and, ou tho contrary,
when the Huid is passing off, or diffus
ing itself, then a large cloud will bo
seen breaking into pieces aud dissolv
ing. Last Friday morning, Mr. J. J.
Fisher, of South Oil City, lost his
pocket book containing 300 in
money, besides several valuable pa
pers, lie did not discover his loss
uutil he started for, home in the evening,-when
he returned to his hotel
and communicated his loss to ouo or
two of our citizens. Ha stayed until
Saturday morning, when Mr. II. O.
Davis carno up uud asked him if ho
didn't feel disposed to "set up tho
cigars." Mr. Fisher immediately
"tumbled to the racket," and set 'em
up, when Mr. D. hauled out the wallet
with the valuables, ho having found it
the evening beforo near the sidewalk
fronting on Mr. Fisher's property,
where that gentleman remembered
having climbed the fence some time
during the day, wheu the valuables
must have dropped out of his pocket.
11a compelled Mr. Davis to accept
$20 for his trouble and kindness, and
left an order with Mr. Jackson to fur
nish all the cigars Mr. D. wished to
smoke for a month, aud then went on
his way rejoicing a happier, if not u
more cautious man.
An Did Lady Lai.
A week Ago lint Saturday Mrs.
Klitiestiver, a lady Bge.d 74 years, and
tho mother cf Geo. Klinestivcr, of
Whig Hill, this county, with whom
she has been living, left the house
about three o'clock in the morning,
since which time she has not been seen
or heard of. For some years her
mind has been somew hat impaired, and
on a former occasion she went away,
but was found six or eight tnil;o away
in tho woods. Although sho was
closely watched she managed to get
away the secoud time and elude all
pursuit. Sho was trackod in the road
as far as Roes Run, about two miles
from home, where all trace of her was
lost and up to tne present time rot the
first iota has been discovered that
would indicate whither she ha3 won
dered. The woods have been scoured
in every direction for miles around,
and from fifty to three hundred men
ha ve been out almost constantly. It
is feared that unless she has gone to
some house and been cared for, he
has by this time perished, It is in
deed u sad affair, and it is hoped that
she may yet turn up ulive, yet that
is hoping almost against hope, as by
this time nearly every one has been
apprised of the matter, and would not
be slow to mako the fact known did
they know anything concerning her
whereabouts. Should this item reach
the eye of any one who has seen or
heard of such a personage, they will
confer a lasting fa.vor by making the
fact known immediitely.
Braceville.
Braceville, in Hickory township,
which ha? had a post office established
lately, is no one-horse place as may be
supposed, but is a place iu our county
which deserves attention. It is one of
the liveliest places in the county. Mr.
Brace, the manager, is a wide awake
business man, and every branch of the
busiuess is carried on iu the most ap
proved way. The firm has a large
number of men employed and it seems
that every man working at Braceville
knows his business, aud more than
that attends to it. Mr. Hugh llanna
stocks the mill, aud being airenergetic
worker keeps the mill well stocked.
Their mill is run iu good shape aud
the lumber they cut out daily is sur
prising. Mr. Brace is having taken
out quite n large amount of square
timber, which is being made by Mr.
S. C. Whitmer, who is without a doubt
oue of the best men in that linp of bus
iness in the county ; In fact this tim
ber 13 being taken out with extra
pains and reflects considerable credit
upon the man who takes it out. This
is oue of the best regulated establish
ments in the county and we are glad
to mako especial mention of the fact.
P. S. Their political matters are iu
all respects equal to their business.
Literary Society.
Pursuant to the persuasive plead
ing of a few of Tionesta's fair damsels,
about 20 ot her young ladies aud gen
tlemen congregated at the Central
House parlors last Saturday evening,
for the purpose of crystalizing their
intellectual energies into the form ofa
Literary Society. The audience hav
ing been called to order, a temporary
organization was formed by the elec
tion of the following officers: Pres.,
P. M. Clark ; Vice Pres., Miss Minuie
Freeman ; Sec'y, W. L. Klinestiver ;
Treas., F. R. Lanson. Tho chair ap
pointed MUses Kate Cobb, Sue Evans
and Minnie Freeman, and Messrs.
Chas. Bonner and R. L. Haslet, a
committee of arrangements to prepare
a Constitution, &i. The Society de
cided to meet every Saturday evening
at 7:30. Its next meeting will be at
Mr. Adams'. Tionesta has need of a
Literary Society, and has plenty of
good material for one. It is to be
hoped that the new organization may
have a lasting and successful career.
State Superintendent Higbee has
issued a call for a meeting of all the
County Superintendents, of the west
ern half of the State, in convention at
Pittsburgh, on Tuesday, January 10th,
1882, and of the eastern half at Read
ing, on Tuesday, January 17th, 1882.
Supt. Higbee hopes to gather such in
formation from papers read at these
conventions as will enable him to
make a proper codification of the
school laws of the Stato. The best in
structors from this and other States
will bo present aud assist in makiug
these meetings profitable and pleusunt
to the county superintendents.
About Pifjeons
Ed. Ri.rur.ucAN :
I understand that
quite a uuruber of wild pigeons have
lately arrived in this section and are
now roosting nightly in this vicinity.
I also understand that a few parties
living near their roosting grounds
havo been disturbing them by firing
guns in the roost. This matter should
be looked after at once, and t'lis dis
urbance of the roosting grounds and
slaughter of the birds quickly stopped.
The game law provides that no person
shall discharge a gun within one mile
of the roosting ground under a peualty
of fifty dollars. As nuts of all kinds
are very plenty this fall, and uli signs
indicate a mild winter, if the
birds are not disturbed in their roost
ing grounds wo will undoubtedly have
a large body of them, lrom now until
next spring, and possibly they may
nest hero for some time next summer.
But if they are nightly visited by
shooters they will be driven out of
their roosting grounds, and very likely
entirely away from this section.
Hence it is due to the interest of all
our sportsmen that they be at once
protscted in their roost. Wo have
taken pains to get the opinion of many
of ou reporting friends on this, to them,
importaut subject aud find that this
view is general among them. We ask
you and your contemporary of the
Commonwealth and Democrat ta caution
all your readers against the violation
of tho law in this respect, and should
this public warning be unheeded the
penalty of tho law will be rigidly en
forced. Nimrod.

A serious accident ocenrred at
Baxter's on last Thursday. A num
ber of men were engaged in rolling a
gunwale into the water, the gunwale
lying on the beach under the high
hank of the creek. Among the gen
tlemen were Mr. Sam'l Cook and Mr.
Abe Braden. On the bank behind
them lay a log twenty-six feet long
and about cighteeu inches iu diameter
at the larger eud. Uuperceived by
the men at work, the hunk, through
some uuknowu cause gave way and
the log rolled down toward them ;
when they heard it coming it was too
late to get out of is way. It struck
Mr. Cook and Mr. Braden, knockiug
them forward on their faces and rolling
right on over them. That both were
not completely crushed is a wonder.
Mr. Cook's right leg is broken above
the knee, and he sustains severe iu
juries in the right side and ubdomen.
Mr. Bradeu's hurts are not considered
serious ; he is hurt in the breast.

Tho Ii'ovomber number of JJ:il-
lou's Magazine is h'sucd, and has such
a table of contents that we do not won
der the publishers are proud of their ,
work, and that the people are eager to
read it. The first article is an illus
trated account of an American family's. s
lour through Switzerland, in which is
woven a th read of romance, love, and
then follows a Thanksgiving tory
that will meet with approval as it is
different from the general run of such
tale?. Published by Tomes A Talbot,

ment for tho little ones. It is ajournal
that pays to teke and read. Try it,
aud, our word for it, you will not he

Peterson's Magazine is on our
tabla for November ahead of all
othors, and better than ever. It leads
off with a charming steel engraving,
Meyer Von Bremen, "Half Afraid."
This is followed by one of those
double size, 6teel fashion-plates, su
perbly colored, only seen in this unri
valed lady's book. Then comes an
other engraving, "Lacy Hall," illus
trating an exquisitely told love-story ;
and then some fifty wood-cut3 of

slipper-pattern, for braiding, in crim
son and gold. Tho principle article

profusely illustrated, and is ofa char-
acter very much higher than is usually J
