Next Monday the Forest County
Teachers Institute will .couveue at
Tiouesta for the sixteenth time. If is
earnestly desired that ail the teachers
iu tho county, especially, as well as
any others who may feel in tbe least
interested in the educational cause, be
present and help to makw the institute
a crand success. Supt. Ilillard lias
labored hard 'for several weck3 per
leering arrangements . for tho coming
session, aud has gono to consideiable
expense in securing first class instruc
tors from abroad, and he Ebould been
couraged by a good turnout on the
part of our citizans. Leputy State
Supt. Henry Houck, wiil be present
on this occason, as will also Prof. Lee
L. Grumbiiie, one of the best eloeu
liouists of the State. Such celebrities
ought to draw a large crowd, and we
verily believe they will. Then there
will bo Prof. E. O. Excell, of Oil City
a musical director of renown ; bo will
be here during the week and give in
siructions iu music, which department
has been placed in bis bauds. Prof.
Hoge of Tidiouto Union and High
School has consented to coins and as
sist in making the institute a success.
Altogether, this se.-sion pramises to be
the most interesting and benefiting of
any ever held in the county, nnd the
array of talent presented by the Su
perintendent is bound to attract a
lare attendance. Let all conio out
who can, , possibly, and indulge in n

A Dig Deer by a Loig Shot.
An East Hickory correspondent,
under date of Dec. 11, writes us as
folbws of a couple of famous hunters,
aud some of their famous marksman
ship : "Messrs. Robt. Anderson and
Archie Davies, of Lawrence county,
Pa , are now visiting Forest county
for the twfcllth time, for the purpose of
hunting and slaying tbe wild beasts of
the forest, and we want to note it
right here that Mr. Davies is the
happy possessor of one of the finest
Winchester rifles, '7G model improved,
tliat we huv ever-seen anif that bo is
capable of using it as will bo seen by
t
he following : On Thursday of last
week, when thesi gentlemen were re
turning from their usual day's hunt,
they came to tho top of Camp Run
hill. Looking across the deep ravine
they spied a very large deer standing
on the oppisite hill. Archie takes
down his famous gun aud gives tbe
deer three volleys; "He don't move,"
says Bob ; "raise your sight." Archie
raises bis sight to GOO yards and fahoots
again. "Still be don't move; raise
your sights ajjaio." Ho raises the
sight aud sends another ball at the
deer: this tune he moves and Archie
shoots again. The buck walks a few-
yards aud fays down. 1 he men go
over and find tbe monster buck under
their control, with one ball through
his liver and both biud feet shot off
The distance ou investigation was
found to be seven hundred yards air
line. R. E. B."
Mrs. llanuah E. llaupt, Sunbury,
Pa., says: "I have takeu Brown's Iron
Bitters to purily my blood and it has
done all that 1 could wish."

MANUFACTURING SILK.
Hawley, Wayne Co., Pa.
Ed. Republican :
Still or. tbe wing. Have reached
this pliTfce about five days bchiqd
schedule. Have visited the following
places in Orange county, N. Y. : Mid
dleton, Otisvilie aud Port Jervi3. At
Otisville we saw the familiar oil tank-!.
Hawley is a place of about 3500 pop
ulation lying iu the valley of the Lack
awaxen, ou a branch of the New York,
Lake Erie & Western R. R., 16 miles
from Lackawaxeo', where it interscets
with the main line.
After our arrival here wo visited,
through courtesy of Mr. G. M.Wilson,
a merchant of this place, who intro
duced us to Mr. Suydam, the SuperirT
tendent of the "Bellenionte Silk Mill,"
who very kindly gave us tbe freedom
of the mill, which is located on a
stream of water called by the Indian
name 'of " Wallenpaupack." The
structure is of solid "blue stone,"
built on a rockey precipice sixty feet
above tho bed of the efTeam ; tho
building is GGO feet long by 45 feet
wide, four stories high aU.ouo end anil
thres at tha other, with a wing expend
ing from th centre 80x23 feet, con
taining tbe offices and packing depart
ment.- There is a shaft sunk tluough'
solid rock under the centre of th
mill sixty feet in depth, and a tunnel
from the bottom leading out into the
stream. The wheel furnishing the
power for running the vast machinery
iu the manufacture of silk is at the
bottom of the shaft. We Jfirst visited
the basement where the machine shop
is located, it being lessary to keejiaJ
machinist and two asJtants, besides
two mechanics called "loom fixers" to
keep things in order. We next visited
the boiler room aod wa?h room, the
building being heated byeteam, and
tbe silk as soon ns received here hav
ing to be washed in order, to remove
the gum. The silk is Received In
skeins as it is reeled from the cocoon,
coming in its original packages from
Milan, Italy. After being washed it
is placed in a perforated cylinder,
which revolves at a high rate of speed,
throwing the water out through the
perforations aud in that way drying
the silk. It is then taken to the wiud
int; room aud placed ou "swifts" and
wound on "bobbins." The bobbins
are then taken to the doubling room
where it is doubled two, three or four
times, according to tbe size of thread
required, and wouud on other bobbins;
thence to the spinniug machines where
it is twisted or spun. From there it is
taken to the reel room where it is
reeled from the bobbins into skeins.
It is then packed in boxes and shipped
to PatterHou, N. J., to be dyed, their
facilities for dyeing hero uot being per
ptrfuctej; after being dyed it is re
turned to this mill, to be woven into
broad silk, such as dress goods; also
ribbous. Tho grade will compare fa
vorably with auy manufactured. They
efnploy from 375 to 400 operatives,
consisting of young men, ladies und
children, from 10 years up to 25; tbe
ft It i 1 .1 rn t n if orii)1nvnr) in w I it 1 1 n r
spinning and reeling rooms; the
young ineu aod ladies us weaver aud
warp pickers. The mill is lighted by
gas, using 500 burners. I would say
here that, iu addition . the stone
building, there is a frame building
60x100 feet, three stories high, two on
ly of which aro used iu this burntus,
this building being devoted entirely to
the weavin'' of ribbon and winding of
lin;
owning to our uin:i so rntioli tini" :

piece of chain fivo or six leet long
with a hook a. each end called a sling,
one end being booked in a coupling
on tbe bead car'aud the other hooked
in a swivel iu tho rope. The train ar
riving at the top of the plane, the
sling is then unbooked from tbe car
and also detached from the rope by
the brakeman, (or, as they are called,
"the runner") who gives the sling a
peculiar jerk, which requires nuch
ekill. Tbe train is then left to run by
its own momentum down ou the other
side of the hill at a speed often times
of 25 Diiles per hour. This rate nev
er being reached by coal trains, but is
frequently made by tbe passenger
trains of which there are two running
daily exceDt Sundays. These trains
are called Pioneers." It has of late
years become a great resort for tourists
aud others, the scenery and ride being
magnificent, there - being no dust or
cinders, and running over deep ravines
aud around rugged cJifTs over-hang
ing deep gorges that almost make oue
dizzy to lok down into the brook .or
stream, which tbey cross and wind rtlong
in numerous places. The coal afier
reaching Hawley is dumped from their
cars(which hold about 5 tons)jnto enor
mous pockets, with a capacity of 1200
to 1800 tons; from these pockets tlio
coal is loaded by chutes into the cars
of the N. Y., L. E. & W. R. R , by
which it is transported to tide water
and other points. ThisfPenn'a Cofl)
