Henry Sidble has gone to Mon roe, Ulaiion county, wnere be ex pects to make hia home this summer with his sister, Mrs. Henry Cropp. Franklin Xewa, Saturday: Bur gess Samuel D. Irwin, of Tionesta was in the .city over night. James B. Mqso was down from Tionesta yester day. The Odd Fellows of this place have under consideration the chang ing of the regular meetings to Tues day night. The chaoge will not take effect before the first of April. Brother Tozer, of the East Brady Times, bids good bye to his readers and discontinues the publication. The Timet was a good paper and we shall miss its welcome visits to our sanctum. -Earnest Sibble, of Dutch Hill, has a dog that looks out, for No. 1. He went out the other night and brought in a coon, which, when dis covered the next morning was still warm. . Mrs. E. Tate, mother of Miles W. Tate Esq., and who has been visiting at her daughter's in Illinois since the death of her husband, over a year ago, has come to make her home with her son. We welcome her to our miast, and trust that she will be pleased with Tionesta. Messrs. Brenuan it Shawkey have contracted with Harvey Fore man for the erecliou of a commodious office on their lot adjoining the Uni versalis! church, and the is to go on forthwith. Ex-Dii&Vt Attor ney Irwin is to occupy the'Tiew office, which we are assured will be a hand some one. Hon. J. B. Agnew, while up to Forest City the other day, had the misfortune to burn his hauda and face by the sudden ignition of gag at one of the big itells. He thought little of the hurts at first, and took no precau tion to keep from taking cold, hence he now has two very sore bands, which may be several weeks in healing. The Tionesta telegraph company hag its line in operation again, not withstanding Geo. Huuter'a refusal to allow the company the use of bis fer ry poles on which to string it wire across the river. When two such gi gantic institutions as the Tionesta Telegraph Co., and the TioneBta Bridge Co., get at logger heads . then look out for trouble ahead. Wiggins, the late Canadian weath er cock, is a fraud of the first magnitude. While there were same little gales along the sea cost on Sunday, nothing like the great, awful, never to-be-for gotten, rip roarin' time, as Wiggins said there would certainly be, was manifested anywhere on the globe. Wiggins Las gone to Halifax, and that's where i ought to stay. Mr. John Banner received a tele gram from Bradford Monday evening, conveying the intelligence that big son, Smith, was dangerously ill, sup posed to be fever. We learn from a Tidioute corres pondence to the Warren Mail that Dr. Coburn contemplates moving to Tid ioute and taking the place of she jate Dr. Freeman. We also learn that the Doctor has not fully decided on the matter. -K Mr Stockton, who has had charge of Wheeler A Dusenbury's null, and kept the boarding house for them for two or three years, at 8towtown, Pa., moved his family to Tylersburg on Thursday last. Mr Farnk Witheral wilj take his place on the mill. The scarcity of good (or even bad) tenement houses in Tionesta at present is, to say the least, distressing. Many families are ' obliged to move on the first of April, and as yet have no place to go. The man who will erect a number of comfortable dwellings the coming summer will reap a good harvest and confer a fa vor on the town in general. Who will be first to grasp tho puddiffg? Hickory capitalists, prominent among whom is lion. N. P. Wheeler, are talking very seriously of building a bridge over tha river at that place this summer. The talk is to buy the bridge at Fpxburg and move it to Hickory, there being no further use for it at the former place as tho Rail road company is putting up a three span bridge on the site of the old one. Our Hickory fiiends mean business. Th fence bill introduced by Rep resentative Davis, and which bad got so far along as to be ordered printed, was last week killed when up for final passage, we are very sory to say. This was Mr. Davis' pet measure, and he worked very hard to get it through the House, but the railroads proved too much for him. lie deserves cred it for his untiring efforts on behalf of his constituents, and we feel assured they will fully appreciate the persis tency with which he fought for their interests in this case. As will be seen by their card at the head of the first local column, Messrs. J. T. Bienuan and C. M. Shawkey have again entered into co partnership in the real estate busi ness. Ihesa gentlemen are too well knowi to need any recommendation from us, yet we cannot refrain from saying that no stranger team could be got anywhere. They both possess rare facilities for transacting the bus iness in which they have embarked, and are prompt and reliable in every particular, which any one knows who has had business relations with them. Our best wishes attend them. East Brady Times: Ex-Sheriff Brace of Forest county was iu town on Thursday evening the guest of Mr. J. B. Stephenson,. He paid the Times office a call and we found him as ever the same pleasaBt and agree able gentleman. Mrs. W. L. Riley, of Braceville, Forest county, spent Thursday evening in East Brady the guest of Mrs. W. K. Hamilton. Mrs. Riley waa enroute for Reynoldsville to visit her son whose little child is lying very sick with scarlet fever. Ex-Judge Cook, of Forest caunty, waa in town a portion of this weok the guest of bis partner Mr. Geo. Graham. The Supreme court bat decided that townehips are liable for the ex penses of holdiug the sprang or Feb ruary elections. It has been the custom heretofore, to present the bills to the county commissioners who ap proved them and they were paid out of the county treasury. The case in' question was that of the city of Mead ville vs. Crawford county. The city brought suit against the county com missioners and obtained a verdict in the lower court ; whereupon the com missioners carried the case up, and the Supreme court reversed the decis ion, declaring each township or dis trict liable for the expenses incurred in holding the February elections. This decission will doubtless control the action of county commmissiouerg in the future. NOTICE Having made arrangements to re move front this place, I hereby request all those knowing themselves to be in debted to me, to call and settle. After April 15th, all accounts unsettled will be left in ite hands of an Attorney for collection. W. C. Coburs, M. D. Tionesta, Pa. Mar. 14, 1883. 3t OIL NOTES. Within the past week four new guflhars have been completed on the Cooper tract. On Wednesday last the McCalmoot No. ' came in, and the first 24 hours it produced nearly two thousand barrels. , The Patterson No. 2 struck the sand ob Friday, and alter penetrating it some little distance began flowing at an eigbleen hundred barrel rate, which it has kept up pretty well ever since. The striking of tHese wells has caused another tumble in the market, and on Friday sent oil down bto the eighties. The other two wells are, the Reno No. 2, and the Murphy No. 2. Of these tho Derrick of Monday says : "Two more wells were added to the producing list in the Cooper tract dis trict on Saturday. The Reno No. 2 struck the sand about noon, and as with the McCalmoot No. 2, began flowing as soon as the shell was bro ken through. Its location is 525 feet east of the Reno No. 1 and 500 feet south of the McCalmont No. 2. The first gauge received on it at the Der rick office was that it averaged fifty four barrels an hour for the first six hours. This is considerably smaller than the other wells, and as its loca tion is first-class its failure to main tain a large production at the open ing must he attributed to drainage. Murphy's No. 2, located 900 feet north of No. 1, and 693 feet west of the Shannon No. 1, struck the sand in the furenoon. The first report re ceived ffas that it was showing better than No. 1. In the afternoon a sec ond dispatch said it had made no flow, and last evening a message was received that it would be a light pro ducer, and smaller than No. 1. The latter well started off at fifty-six bar rels. From its location its owners ex pected a light producer, but as some producers are looking for a belt run ning east and west this venture was an important test for that teritory. It being smaller than No. 1, and also smaller than the Shannon wells to the east of it, would seem to prove that the Reno belt runs "ery close to the west edge of the district, and that on the southwestern end there is no prolific teritory to the west of the present producing wells." P.S. Since the above was in type reliable reports come that the Mur phy No. 2. made 200 barrels the first 24 hours. The following gauge on the wells in the Cooper district, taken on Monday evening, and published in yesterday's Derrick will be of interest to our rea ders: "Wells. Frod'n. Reno, No. 1 Srt3 " 2 480 McCalmont, No. 1 160 2 192 Patterson .........!...!..! ......... ... 812 Murphy, No. 2 175 " 1 20 Shannon, 5 166 Shultz 166 Shannon, Nos. 1 and 2 70 Anchor 125 Forest Oil Co.'s 80 Clark A Foster, No. 1 38 ' 2 20 Fertig A Hennie, est 30 " 3 Stewart 30 Porter 10 Connelly nothing Total, twenty wells 2440 BALI.TOWN. The latest report from the Grandin No. 5 puts the production of that well at 40 barrels a day. The Porcupine well is not doing much at present. It is said the well has made about 125 barrels aince it wag completed ; that was oa the 16th of February, or nearly a month ago. Drilling on the Welsh & Co. well is progressing. 'They have encountered some difficulty with the salt water vein, and will have to ream down some seven hundred feet and case. Teachers' Examinations. Neilltown, Saturday, March 24.

Tbe school closed last Tuesday with the nicest picnic and social gathering it has ever been our lot to stray into. Tho Secretary of the school board, the Supt., and almost the entire femi nine population of tbe village assisted tbe school children in paying such a compliment to tbe makers of the feact as did the greatest good all around. Besides the dinner there were decla mations and recitations, and a "spell ing down match" by the scholars. Then there were speeches by the visit ors; thendistribulion of cards by the teacher; and then a candy treat by Mr. Byrora, who, being unable to be pres ent in person was represented by his daughter in this role. Job Cummings has been called away to attend tho funeral of his father, well known to many of the readers of your paper. MARIENVILLE. Tho town still grows apace.

Mrs. Susan Patton was born in Cen tre County, Pa., May 10, 1791, and died at the residence of her son, Hon. John Patton, of Curwensvillr, Pa., Jan. 29, 1883, aged 91 years, 8 moDtha and 19 days. She was one of tho early Methodist g of Center and Clearfield Counties, and a member of the Church for 75 years. She was married iu 1812 to John Patton, a Lieutenant in the United States Navy, in the command of Commodore Decatur, and after wards Associate Judge of Clearfield County, and to whom she bore 11 children, six of whom, three sons and three daughters, survive their mother, the youngest now being past 50 years of age. BeiDg born during Gen. Washing ton's first term as President sho had lived through the administration of every Presidint of the United States down to tbe present. She was well versed in National affairs, and loyal' to the government, giving one son, and four grandsons to tbe army, and hear tily rejoiced in tbe overthrow of sla very and the restoration of the Union. Grandma Patton is well known to many of our eitizens, She visited her grand-daughter Mrs. Miles W. Tate, of this town, a few years ago. Mrs. Hunter, mother of Hons. John A. and Joseph G. Dale, was then living, aod she and Mrs. Patton bad been school girls together. Tbey were both devout christians then wor shiping at the same Church, and both died in the triumphs of the Christian's faith, after giving long and nseful lives to tbe cause. An intimate friend of the family and a near neighbor had a singular dream just after the funeral. She di earned that Mrs. Patton came down from the cemetry into Mr. Patton's yard, and seemed to be searching ear nestly for something bat declined to enter the house when invited. She said she was only looking for a flower? and plucking one of tbe most beauti ful she could find, placed it in her bo som, aod went back to the Cemetry again. Within a week little. Kate, the idol of Mr. Alex E. Tatton's home, was taken suddenly ill and uied, and the fair flower found its rest ing place indeed, in the bosom of the ripe sheaf in God's harvest fields of Glory. - Thug has au affectionate home been doubly wounded by one stroke of the wing of the Angel of Death. Tho ruthless, marble hand has touched their two extremes of life and love, and tbe dear forms saak into the same grave, but tbe same Heaven now Jiel Js these treasures of the soul, and there our "hearty are also."
