Mr. Issoac Reck of Alliance, Ohio, brother of Judge Reck, but considerable better looking, is pay ing Tionesta a visit this week. No more deer-slayiug after next Saturday, unless you do it unlawfully, in which case you may have it to set tle for your fun, with costs, &o. Arrangements for the grand ball and supper to be given by tho A. O. U. W. of this place on the 28th, are being perfected and a grand time may be looked for, . Court convenes next week, and will no doubt last all week as a large number of big civil suits are on the calendar. There are seventy-four ju rors drawn, which with wituesses and suitors will make a lively town, no doubt. There will be a grand Bhooting match at Pritner Agnew's place, across the creek, on Saturday, Dec. 22, just before Christmas. Mr. Ad.

A new sidewalk is being laid down Dale St. by the borough author, ities at the expense of the pruperly ewners, in' accordance with the ordi nance recently passed by the council and more recently vetoed by Burgess Irwin. Vetoes seem to bo all the rage these days. Last Thursday evening while the ganger was going his rounds at Ball town be in some manner ignited the gas of Marphy & Galey's well No. 2, burning the fig and two tanks of oil containing about five hundred barrels. The ganger, whose name escapes our memory, was seriously burned, but will recover. Emma E. ' Johnson, teacher of Jamison school, makes lug following report ending Nov. 29, 1883: No. enrolled, males 7, females 8 ; per cent' of attendance, males 97, females 90. The following sro those who have been neither late nor absent during month : Willie Johnson, Charlie Monson, Adolph Lawson, Annie and Jenuie Eckberg, Florence Jamicsoo, Gussie and Hannah Johnson. The only wells of importance expected to be completed in the Ball town region within the next week are Grandin & Kelly No. 18 and Union Oil Co.'s wildcat on the Funk lands. The latter well is of a great deal of importance, as it will either open up a big scope of territory or condemn it, and is being watched by the trade with considerable anxiety. There are several other wells about leady to start the drill, but being located in old or defined territory they give the trade little uneasiness, Gus Dielz, of Fry burg, was re ported to have been lost last week, while playing the role of Niurod in the wilds of Forest county. Happily thie was not exactly the case al though Fryburg was lost, for a few hours, but Gus wasn't and he return ed ou Saturday. We have heard a vaguej rumor to the effect that Dietz and Nickllelfrick, of this place, treed Bevau bears the bears being at the foot of the tiee and Gus and Nick is the top, but we can trace it to no reliable source. Clarion Jacksonaian. Hickory is jnst now experienc ing quite a boom. Many new dwell ings are noticeable on all sides; the bridge, one of the most substantial and convenient structures along the Allegheny river from its source to Pittsburgh, is reaping a rich harvest, its average receipts being about $25 per day since it was opeued to the public. Teaming is very brisk, the plank road being strung with lumber wagons from morning till night, giv ing the valley a vet j business-like air. Altogether the citizens of that commu nity have reason to feel elated over the future outlook of the place. Our State Legislature has ad journed and gone home. This impor tant event took place last Thursday, and was bailed with joy by everybody except the Governor aud his few Democratic friends. The Governor vo toed the appropriation bill because the members of the legislature would not do as he wanted them, or it amounted to that in effect. The members afore said hurled the bill over bis head in less time than it takes to tell it, and tho boys all got their pay. The Dem ocrats are now in a sad plight. They dare not go back on the Representa tives for taking their pay, and yet they hate like sin to say Pattison was wrong in his veto. Consequently they haven't a great deal te say, like a cer tain other individual who maintained silence. Notice. All persons knowing themselves in debted to the undersigned, profession ally or otherwise, will please call and settle by note, if they have not the cash to pay. I have a great deal standing ou my books and must get them settled up at least once a year. Call between this and the first of Jan uary. J. M. BurucETT, M. D. Clarington, Pa., Nov. 14, 1883. All preparations for the Teach ers' Institute next week are about completed and the chances are the meeting will be one of unusual suc cess and interest. Teachers and otb ers who Intend coming need have no hesitancy on account of a lack of ac eommdatiens, as we never have seen that crowd in Tionesta yet that could not be comfortably taken care of and entertained, and we hope none will absent themselves on this tfecount. The Institute is going to be a com plete success, and those who fail to attend will cheat themselves ont of a good educational treat. Prof. Hill ard is making an effort, with fair prospects of success, to secure the ser vices of Miss Belle McClinlock, one of the leading singers of the State, for one evening at least. Don't stay away but come and have a good and profitable time. Donavin's Famous Teanesseeans, the popular company of Colored vo calists, who iu their earlier history with manager Donavin, assisted so materially in building Central Ten nessee College at Nashville, and Jwho sang to crowded houses for 118 con secutive evenings in New York City in 1876-7, making 179 concert in that city, will probably visit Tionesta early in January and present their new and varied program, which has earned for them their reputation as the best Colored Vocalists living. They desire, particularly, not to be Con founded with the many so-called "Ju bilee Singers," as they are really cultured vocalists, and present many features not attempted by auf other colored company. We have before us the most favorable press notices, which guarantee us in promising one of the best of entettainments Peterson's Magazine for January reaches us in advance, and is altogeth er the most superb number we have ever eeeu, eveu of this favorite lady's book. There are two beautiful steel engravings: "In the Orchard," and "Lost on the Alps." In addition there is a double-size fashion-plate, engraved and printed from steel, and colored by hand ; an exquisite affair. But the gem of the uumber is a col ored pattern for a border for a cur lain, or chair-stripe, etc., etc., perhaps the costliest single embellishment ever given in a magazine. The price of this popular ladyYbook is but two dollars a year. Address Cbas J. Pe terson, 306 Chestnut Street, Phila delphia, Pa. Ballou's Magazine for January is already to hand replete as usual with choice literature. The first in stallment of the new and thrilling story "On Land and Sea ; or, Califor nia in the years 1843, '44 and '45," by William A. Thomes, is contained in this number, and now is the best time to subscribn. Only $1.50 a year. Address Thomes & Talbot, 23 Haw ley St., Boston. INSTITUTE NOTES. The following explaius itself: Ft. Waine, Dec. 1st, 1883. Dear Sir: I will he at Tionesta Dec. 17th, without fail. Truly yours, Theron P. Keator. Don't forget that Keator lectures on Monday evening of lust. Don't stay away from tho lecture. Keator, like Sanford, is a great traveller, lie tells about "The Queer and Curious Things I Have Soen." His lecture is instruc tive, entertaining, humorous, and pure in tone. Miss Excell will bring her guitar with her, and will sing some very fine ballads during Inst. Miss Excell is a very fice reader. And don't forget that she is the btst instructor we have yet had at our Institutes in her par ticular line. Bro. Langley and Bro. Hoge are known to many of you. It is not necessary to say they are excellent men. You know it without being told. Our home talent merits and will re ceive a hearty recognition. The piano for use of lost, is from the music rooms of E. Harvey, Oil City. The organ has beea furnished u& by A. Carson, Tionesta. Both instruments are for sale. Teachers, don't be afraid you can not find boarding. There will be no trouble about that. HlLLAKD, Supt. At II. J.

A new schoo bouse has been built at Piueville, Warren county, and'" the other day the old school house was sold at auction, bringing the magnifi cent sum of $41! and it wasn't a bad school bouse either. It would seem as if school houses were a drug on the market. Eli Berlin has opened a grocery on Whig Hill. Keliettville has a bridge. It is in appearance more a thing of conven ience than beauty. Saturday after Thanksgiving Miss Hilda Berlin made a short visit home. Miss Minta Reid is visiticg with her uncle Eli Berlin on Whig Hill. The telegraph pole business has been booming on Whig Hill the last week or so. Johnny Wilson thinks hemself and the other good people of Crow Hill will put up a house for school purposes right away. Aback line has been established with Hickory as a starting point. It proposes to carry people wherever they may want to go. Dec. 11, '83. Teamp.. . East Hickory Etchings We can see many improvements as we look back aud contrast the past with the present, and at this Thanks giving season we have much to be thankful for. Every house wife knows the value of a good meat market and we now rejoice in one ; also an oyster man goes the weekly rounds, then the hack meeting trains is a great . con venience, as any one who has had to walk miles through mud aud rain after leaving the cars can' testify. The huge poles of the W. U. Tele graph sprang up-like magic the other day. They run up the j Hickory val ley aud then on to Whig Hill and Balltown. Should a stranger drop down in this road and see the numer ous wires of telegraphic and telephon ic communications he would undoubt edly look for the railroad and listen for a locomotive. He might see the latter if he went up Hickory creek a mile and a half from its mouth, but it is only a cute little engine running to and from Polen's Mill, which cuts by steam for Wheeler & Duesenbury ; a ride on this locomotive up about tour miles in the woods makes a Dice "exertion," as Josiah Alleu's wife would say. The engino draws the cars empty up grade most of the way, so wheu the cars are piled high with the dead bodies of huge pines coming ' down to the mill the busy locomotive holds a check reiu on them to keep them from going too fast. There may be another kind of a train some day through this vale, if eugineers with j all sorts of poles going about survey- iug and leveling are any sign of such a consummation. But Railroads are "unsartiu" commodities ; you can be sure of them only when the tracks are laid and trains running. While oa the subject of railroads, would say that the increasing business at Hickory station has warranted the R. R. Company '8 putting on a night man to relieve the day agent. There has been a German Club organized in our neighborhood. It consists at present of niue enthus iastic and devoted members; one young mau walking five miles to at- tend. Tho system taught is the nat ural method which encourage!" con versation from the Erst; thu books Studied are by Prof. J. II. Warman of Chautanqua fame. The Club mourns the loss of Miss Belle Smith, sisier of Mrs. N. P". Wheeler, who has been visiting the latter for several weeks. Her knowledgo of German was kindly used to aid tile aspiring students, two years' sojourn 'in Dres den having given her a practical edit-. cation in the language not to be found in books.
