Kingsley township furnishes an other case of mysterious disappear ance. Last Sunday evening a week ago Tobias Reese, who has been in the employ of tho Salmon Creek Lumber Co. fir some weeks, crossed the Tio nesta creek, in company with another employe, to get some apples. The breast of a dam has been used for crossing ou all summer, it having been nearly dry owing to the low water; on the evening in question a slash broke on one of the dams above which allowed the water to raise suf ficiently to cover the foot passage with twelve to sixteen inches of water. The two men started back when they were overtaken by a man with a rig and Reese's companion got iu the buggy and rode across, ho (Reese) saying he would walk. This is the last that has been seen or heard of him, and it is supposed that he, having undertaken to cross ou the dam and not knowing that the water bad risen, was washed off and drowned. The creek has since been dragged for a considerable d'i3 tance, and a thorough search made, but all in vain. The missing man was unmarried and his parents live at Summit City, Venango Co. He had not drawn all of hu wages from the company, and all his extra clothes are still in their hands. THE BODY FOUND. On Monday the brotber-iu-law of tho unfortunate man arrived, and after a thorough search succeeded in finding the body and bring it to the surface ; It was lodged iu some logs and drift about ten feet below the dam. The remains were brought to Tionesta on Tuesday, and on this (Wednesday) afternoon buried ia our cemetery. The man was aged about 20 years. New invoice Ladies Coats and Djliuaus at Robiusou & Bonner.

Their flour and feed department is also crowded. We would like to give a raoro extended notice of this mammoth establishment, but our time is too limited this week ; but we will say more shortly, iu tho meantime give them a call and seo for yourselves. Owing to being a day late with ihis issue and tha pressure of other matter ou our columns, we are unable to give the brilliant affair of last eve ning tho notice it deserves. The festal occasion was the eighteenth birthday of Miss Maude Anna Davis, daughter of the Hon. E. L. Davis, and proved one of the most enjoyable parties of the season. Representatives from Warren, Titusville, Millerstowu, Pleasuntville, Hickory, and the sur rounding towns were present and con tributed much to the pleasure of the evening. If ffe wore equal to the emergency we would say in what manner the ladies were dressed, but, oh 1 we can not. Suffice to say that the most brilliant toilots were the rule. The large parlors of the house were brightly illumined and cleared for dancing, which was carried on as long as desired. Numerous presents were displayed and the doners showed a proper appreciation of the event. In the early morning "farewell" was said, and the guests departed, feeling, one and all, that the natal anniversary had been enjoyed in a manner seldom equaled. vThoBe who wero present from a distance were Misses Fanny, Jennie and June Siggins, and Messrs.

J Mr. Editor: I will now endeavor to redeem ray promise to you. by dropping you a few lines from ihh far-off land of God's creation, and give you an account of our journey from Tionesta to this place. We left Tionesta Friday, the 20th, and arrived at Pittsburgh about 8 o'clock the same evening, and found friends awaiting our arrival. We visited Dear friends iu the city during our short stay, and on" Monday eve ning, the 24th, at 7:43, we took fast through train for Chicago. Of course we could not see anything of special interest during tho nights travol, but wo had about seventy-five miles of daylight travel before we reached Chicago ; the morning was a delightful ono ; we enjoyed this run grandly; everything along the way denoted thrift and prosperity. Fine farms and fine farm buildings greeted us all along the way. We arrived at Chicago about 0:30, and found the city a "city of mud," from the fact of recent rains. We dined here and at 12:35 we took our place in the "Chair Car," an ar rangement made by the gentlemanly kindness of Mr. R. R. Ingrahm, of Pittsburgh, from whom we procured our tickets through from Pittsburgh to Kansas Ciy, at greatly reduced rates ; and by the way, if any of our Tionesta friends, who may contemplate coming west, by going to Mr. R. R. Ingrahm, No. 78 5th Avenue, Pittsburgh, they can get a through passage to the west at less rates than anywhere else in the city. This "Chair Car," is a bplendid arrangement; the chairs are so ar ranged that you can let the back down so as to have a very good bed upon which to rest and sleep ; this you have without additional cost. We had a pplendid rido during tho afternoon ; the part of Illinois we passed through ia certainly a very fine part of the State, but the past dry season effected this part of the State graatly ; the pas tures were dried up, the forests denoted great drouth ; but grain looks splen did, recent rains brought it on so that the outlook is very promising. I am informed that the amount of grain sown this fall exceeds last year twenty five per cent. There is also a good deal of fruit ; apples appear to be an average crop. During this night's travel we crossed the Mississippi. "Old Miss issip" is just "booming" high ; we crossed it at Louisiana ; the water was over the river bauks for several miles on the eastern shore, over which we had to pass ; when we came to the great iron bridge, we found tte water within four feet of the bridge ' and rising; it looked a litilo frightful, but a kind providence carried us over safely ; we folt thankful, and breathed easier. We passed on through Miss ouri and behold many fields of splen did looking grain. This State prom ises a -grand crop to the furmer ; fruit appears to -be an average crop. We arrived in Kansas City at 9:30, in the morning, aud breakfasted, being ex ceedingly tired and hungry, and at 10:35 we started on our Inst day's and night's travel. Eastern Kansas is cer tainly a very fino part of the State; this is the grain growing part of the State ; the present sowing is looking fine indeed, and is extensive; fruit is a medium crop here. We came to Florence about 7:30 in the evening ; here we had "a few words" with Mrs. H. aud daughter, and then we parted, they going to McPherson, aud we to. this place, where we arrived next morning, tired, weary and greatly demoralized ; found our son on the luok-out for us, and glad to see us. Now, "ono word more," as tho preacher said, as to rail roads and the men who operate them : I would feay that we wero treated kindly and gentlemanly by all, and iu con clusion would say that if auy of our Tionesta friends contemplate a visit to the far west, that they can get through by way of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne, & Chicago ; Chicago & Alton, and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, lines, as cheaply, pleasantly, and as safely as any other roads goiug west ; all these roads are operated by gen tleman of the first grade. Now, Mr. Editor, if you can't read this, you must bring it out here and I will read it for you. With kind re gards to you, and all friends iu Tio nesta, I bid you good eveniug, hoping to have a good morning, with you on "the other shore." J. F. Hill.

In Tionewta, Pa., Nov. 5, 1881, by D. S. Knox J. P., Mr. Wm. Ouiton. of Tiouesta, and Miss liello Smith, of Tylcrsburg, Pa. DIED. HENRY. Ia Tionesta, Pa., Sunday ; morning, Nov. 6, 1881, Mrs. M. Henry, '. widow of the lato Michael Henry, aged S CO years, 6 months and 9 days. In this bereavement, sad as it is to' tho immediate relatives, the community has a large share of sorrow. Mrs. Henry was known to all, and by all affectionately esteemed. She was pos sessed of a nobility of air and mein, which with her great modesty and re tiring manners, at once impressed upou all her qualities of worth and refinement, and distinguished her as a Boble and christian lady in society,1 She was gentle and kind, and charita ble in her station, and with evenness and quiet reserve of spirit and action, did her lifd-work thoroughly and well, She became a member of the Pres byterian Church when about eighteen years of age, and died one of its most faithful communicants. She was i practical member. , Her religion wai like a sea of wonderous depth aud clear, on whose eurfaco indeed thi light of heaven falls, but where tot the rays of the sun are deeply inter epersed until the water live and glovi with celestial radiance. And &hi died in great peace, and her deal! was as her liie had been, in her se verest sufferings she told us ofthelov . of Jesus, and rejoiced iu the lift of th world to come, which she would 8 soon begin to live. The day befor her death, she spoke of where the should lay her body, aod that should be here ia our beautiful ceraf tery, where the tender hands thj soothed her in her illness, could la tho flower-wreaths of affection aud tea her grave. In the very latest m ments, with her faculties all clear an collected, and when uucontrollab distress took hold of her nearest ut best beloved, so calm was she that a soothed her sorrow with words of cha, and hope. And then hor heart wj up to God, in praise lor tho great K :at lot of Christ, through whom t bLou to vnU'i iiito iiicurruptibU 1
