Herman Blum of Dutch Hill, hns lately built a large addition to his birr?. Oil Market closed last night at $1,029. Opened this morning at $1,025. Watermelons at 50 cents each puts the cholic out of reach of 'most everybody. Mr. Oil. Limbert of Akron, Ohio, has been spending the past week with Tionesta friends. Mrs. J. Ii. Chad wick has gone to visit friends and relatives at Tryon villc, Crawford county. lion. E. L. D.ivis came borne Saturday evening and remained over Sunday with his family. Since receiving the nomination for County Treasurer by the prohibi tionists Mr. S. J. Woicott has an nounced himself as a Greenback can didate, also. Mr. G. W. Dilhridge ami family are spending the season ut Chautau qua. The attractions at that favorite resort are said to be greater this year than ever. Our congiatulaiions anil best wishes are extended to Mr. Truman Hill and bridu uf Hickory township, who?e marriago announcement appears in this issue. Hon. J. B. Agnew, Surveyor F. F. W hittekin, and J. A. Long were in Harrisburg last week attend ing a suit for vacant lands before the board of properly. Mrs. W'm. Hebenthal, with her children, returned to Tionesta last week from her trip to Dakota. Mr. Hebenthal has taken up two claims out there and will remain to take care of them. While the farmers of this eection are hoping for sufficient dry weather to harvest their crops those of the Northwest ure praying for just a little moisture to save their crops from ruin by tbe drouth. Billy Hendsrson has gone to East Hickory to start a barber shop, and will occupy rooms in Mr. Ball's hotel. We can roe oni mend Billy as a good shaver and we believe will supply a long felt want in that town. Mr. Stnith at Carpenter's photo graph gallety does work in Oil, Iudia and Crayon, and guarauteas satisfac tion. He also makes good ice cream and has it for sale by the gallon, quart or dish at all hours. Our young friend Johnny Shunk, of Whig Ilill, who is just recovering from a severe attack of inflamatory rheumatism, was in town Monday looking somewhat reduced in flash but had given up the idea of passing in his checks yet awhile. For a week or two past our pee pie have wondered why Charley Hin- toa wat fixing up the dwelling oppo site Lawyer Tate'is office so comforta bly. Well, Charley and his bride, formerly Miss Sarah Host, have since commenced house-keeping there, and although the wedding took place some five or ix months ago, we're bound te extend congratulations, if we are a little late. James Kutter, who carries the mail between this place and Tylers burg, has provided himself with anew hack, and passengers will now be trnasported with ease and comfort. "All aboard for Tylersburg I" Although a little late the chest nut blossoms give promise of an abun dant crop. 'W also learn that beech nuts are going to be plenty this fall; likewise acorns, which will doubtless be the means of bringing in the pigoons. The crops generally over this county look well, and the indications point to a rich harvest. Many of the farmers are now cutting their wheat which is fast ripening, while the rye will be ready for the cradle in a week or ten days. Some fellow has just brought to light the information that the first snow of the past winter fell on the night of the 12th of November, 1882, and the last on the 21st of May, a winter period of six months an j nine days. Ex. And then rain set in and it has hardly let up a day since. In the marriage notice of Mr. II. W. Roberts, published two weeks ago, we gave the biide's name as Miss Viola Hunter, when it should have Hubbard. Your pardon, "Elder," for this error, and at the same time receive our best wishes for the future welfare of you and yours. Attention ia directed to the card of the Tidioute Union and Normal High Schools in this issue. To those intending to send their children away to school we would recommend a con sultation with the managers of this in stitution of learning, which is rapidly growing ia public favor. Read the advertisement. The last installment of lock drawers for the post office arrivei last week and have been placed in position ; they are 24 of them, and they finish up tbe office very handsomely, and are going off like hot cakes on a frosty morning, there being but one or two that have not been spoken fur, so call early if you want a big box. Our young people had "laid out" a picnic for last Saturday at the Tubbs Run platform, on Dutch Hill, but the rain put a damper on the affair. liar ing their minds set on a dance they were not willing to give it so, so they adjourned to I'urtridge Hall, where they whiled the evening away until 12 o'clock, in the mazy whirl. Miss Flora Kelly teacner of West Hickory School makes the fol lowing report for the month ending July 4th: Number of pupils enrolled 10, average attenbance 14. Pupils who have not been absent duriug the month, Merta Copeland, Pearl Cope land, Truman Siggins, Garvey Cope land, Frank Jones. j A good day's cradling, and one that is hard to beat, was performed by our young friend Jake Siggins, on Mr Kelly's Oldtown farm, now being superintended by Mr. Wm. Young. Last Friday Jake cut six and one fourth acres of wheat in 10 hours by the watch, drill measure. If this rec ord is beaten in the county during the present season we would like to hear from the man who docs it. All the Western Union and American Rapid telegraph operators went out en a strike at noon on Thurs day last, in consequence of which there is much stagnation in business, and very little news. The strike extends all over the United States and Cau ada, as well as to the cable operators. The strikers demand fifteeu per cent, increase in wages ; a reduction in the hours of work ; equal pay for equal work, man or woman, and extra pay for Sunday work. There is no telling when it will end. ' Tho School Directors of Tionesta borough mot on Monday evening, ac cording to previous announcement, for the purpose of selecting teachers for the ensuing term, with the following results: Advanced department, Geo. W.Kerr; intermediate, Miss Flora Kelly; primary, Mrs. Truman Hill. The selections give very general satis faction to our citizens, and tbe teachers come highly recommended. Mr. Kerr, for the advanced department, is con sidered a good selection, and it is be lieved he will not be troubled much witk unruly boys, but on the contrary will have good order in his room. The other teachers are'quite welt known in our county, and receive much praise from tho communities in which they have taught. The schools will open on the first Monday iu September. -Mr. C. D. W. Baker, who has.' for upward of a year occupied a clerkship 1 in Robinson & Bonner's store, severed his connection with the firm last week and has gone to ' his former home in Warren county. Mr. B. was very ! popular both as a clerk and with the young people of Tionesta all of whom are very sorry to lose him as a citizen. We hope he will find it convenient to visit Tionesta occasionally, and if pos sible again become a permanent citi zen. "Bijah," our Brookston scribe, sends us the following items : Brooks- ton has a traveling photographer vis iting them and making qui to a lively time, especially among the "sparking clacs." Mrs. MCrea, while out fish- iug a few days ago near James' mill, caught the fish hook in one of her fingers. Mr, F. W. Brooks was called to take it out. The lady saO'ered con siderable pain for about two hours. A word of warning to the T. V. R. R. brakeman is all it is necessary to say at present. At this timo when showers are making themselves numerous it might be well to understand "umbrella flirt ations." To leave your umbrella in the hall "I don't want it auy more." To purchase an umbrella indicates "I am not smart but honest." To trail your umbrella on tbe sidewalk means that "the man behind you thirsts for your blood." To lend an umbrella indicates "I am a fool." To put a cotton umbrella beside a silk one means "exchange is no robbery." To return ac umbrella never mind what that means. No one ever does that. Messers Watson & Root are build ing an exteusivo mill on what is known as the Davidson tract on Hickory creek about five miles from the river. They expect to move their families there and build up a small town, as it were. They will have a store, blacksmith shop, and in fact everything that goes to make up a first class lumbering town. The mil) will be built with a view to sawing extra long material, and will cover a good deal of ground. They have nearly fifteen millions of lumber to cut which will occupy sev eral years iu its completion. It is calculated to have the mill up, house built and everything in good running order in two months. The firm of Watson & Root has been a great benefit to the trade of Tionesta, amounting in some years to over 810, 000, and we are very sorry to think they are going to leave us, the worst ef it all being that they will be out of the county. They have always con ducted their business in a straight forward, honorable manner, and there by have built up a credit for them selves which is second to noue in this section. We wish them the same suc cess in their new field which they have always met with on Tionesta creek. Panther Rock Squibs. Our populace is at present very much rushed on account of the large hay crop that is beiog gathered in. The gentleman that owns the roan and sorrel horse team works night as well as day at haying. The Noble & Stroup bark job seems to be flourishing well considering the wet weather we are having. Tobey & Normile are rushing- the lumber through on the old mill. Mis. Streup has been very sick, but through the kind treatment of Dr. Smith is improving slowly. Miss Mame Murphy is visiting friends here. Mr. Tobey aud family have been visiting relatives in Mew York State. Miss Hattie Tobey just returned from visiting friends at Frewsburg, N. Y. Miss May Sloan, tho teacher of our school, is very prompt in bringing the directots to time in the way of repairs aud improvements about the school house. We find that the beech trees near tbe house are being trimmed. Mr. Criswell has been suffering for the past few days with sore eyes. W. B. Roupe has just returned home from an extended trip down the river with lumber. Mr. J. T. Brennan enlightens the people of Panther Rock every two weeks in religious matters. July 21, 1883. Buzzigiu.

Very little, if anything, worth raen tioning has occured in the Forest county field' during the past wbek;. drilling continues at the lubbs Run venture and doubtless they are Very near the finishing point. In our next issue we think we will be able to re port a good well there or a dry hole. There is only one well expected in in the Balltown district this week. This is Dutch Oil Company's No. 2, and it is doubtful whether this will be completed. Balltown No. 5 still has the tools in the hole, and the chances are they will never he got out. They are now waiting for s steel socket from Brad ford. Lineville Locals. The farmers in this vicinity are buisy haying and harvesting, but ow ing to so much rain their progress i rather slow. Mr. C. P. Rickenbrode has erected a large barn on his farm near this place. The smiling countenance of II. C. Whittekin can be seen looming up in our town occasionally. Hank, you will have to "set 'era up" after Novem ber next. Prof. E. P. Williams, who has just finished a term of school at the Tubbs Run school house, in your county, is again among us. He reports having a spleudidtime among the people of of Dutch Hill. A party was gotten up on the platform in honor of bis arrival. Miss Luticha Kahl, who has been in Cleveland under the doctor's care for nearly two years, returned a few days since looking quite well. Hon. John W. Kahl, of Marienville, spent a few days with his family at this place the past week. Capt. A. W. Owens has been sorely amicted with rheumatism, lie is again able to be up around. Our young folks concluded to have a "fourth'' of their own ; they there fore went to work and built a platform and have hud several little fourths since. Mr. Henry Zink, one of the oldest citizens of this community, and a sol dier in the war of 1812, died a short time ago, aged 80 years and 9 months. The greater part of Lineville is built on his farm, upon which he has lived about sixty-five years. July 21, 1883. Mokae. FROM ANOTHOK CORRETFONDENT we receive the following additional items : The boys will give a dance on the platform at this place on the evening of the 20th. It promises to be an en joyable affair. The M. E. Quarterly Meeting will be held at this place by Rev. Framp ton at an early date. The Lineville brass band, under the leadership of H. Auge is progressing finely, and bids fair to become a band of no mean attainments. Lank. July 24, 1883. Atiempted Kidnapping. Of thj attempted kidnupping of Ex-SherilTS. V. Davis tbe receiver of the Ford & Lacy estate appointed by Judge Brown, the Warren Mail of last week gives the following par ticulars: About three weeks ago an injunc tion was served on Davis prohibiting him from receiving certain money and directing him to appear before the Al legheny county Court. He took coun sel aud did net go as be was not am enable to that Court. A warrant was accordingly issued by the Allegheny judge for his arrest for cootempt of Court. Last Satuaday evening just before the train for Kane arrived he was driving near the depot with his niece Miss Valentine, when he was sudden ly arrested by two men, hurried on board the train and taken to Katie. One of them pretended to be the sher iff of Allegheny county, which proves to be false. Tho news soon spread and a writ of habeas corjma was pro cured from judge Browu and a special train was Btarted for Kane witk S. 11. Davis, Policeman Utter, Geo. Davis and others on board. Telegrams had been sent to Dr. Preston, ' Kane, to prevent the kidnapper f'rJua procuring livery rigs to go beyoud Ifaue. Wheu the special arrived Uttel showed his authority and after fcoml parley got Mr. Davis and relurutdl to Warren. Probaly lie ought to have taken the Idctf ctive also." is It appears the detectives had been hanging around Warren for some tite weeks under assumed names, trying to, nab Davis and run him out of the county. Their little game was final ly blocked by the energy and prompt ness of Davis's friends. Probably the end is sot yet for Mr. Davis is not a man to be fooled with unlawfully. FOR SALE.
