At last accounts there were some doubts as to his abili ty to recover. Mrs. Graham, aged about 'it years, died at her Lome, neat Sal mem creek, this county, last Sunday tven ing. Her husband preceded her in Lleth about one year. .' It looks now as though we'd have a nice tracking snow fur to-morrow, Thanksgiving. Should k tuiii out eo why that's the time we generally slip out and kill one. Supt. llilliard has set. December 15th as the day for convening the Forest comity Teachers' Institute. Let us hope the weather will be pro pitious aud the attemlanc-o of teachers good. There will be Thauksgiviu,; Ser vices held in the Presbyterian Church to-morrow, f ihauksei viug) at half past ten o'clock, a. m. A general aud cordial invitation is extended. Rev. F. M., Small will preach. The funeral of Mr. label's child was attended by tt large num ber of friends on Friday afternoon last. The bereaved parents have the tender sympathy of all our citizens in the loss of their bright little boy. E. Decker, of Whig Hill lost a valuable two-year-old steer recently. It was red and white and had a small slit in right tar. Mr. D. offers an ample reward to the person furnishing information leading to the recovery of the animal. Mr. and Mrs. Heibel wish through our columns to return their heartfelt thsuks to their kind neigh bors and friends for the many acts of kindness shown them during the afflic tion through which they have just passed, in the death of their littlo boy, Charlie. DeVoe, the weather prophet, says : "I will venture to predict that there will be more brilliant sunsets, and the sky will be even redder than last year, every cold fpell this fall aod winter. When we have a bril liant sunset the wind will shift to the south, aud it will grow warmer, and three days after it will rain." Another plan for raisiog money at church sociables bas been discover in Erie county. It is as follows : The ladies are placed on a scale and the names and weight put in eealed en velopes. Each gentleman draws an envelope, aud on opening it he finds the name of the person he is expeeted to take to supper. Oysters are served. He pays for the same at the rate of half a cent a pound for as many pounds as his partner weighs. These sociables will furnish a great deal of amusement, The Clarion Jacksonian cuts a slice out of our Jenks township letter, published two weeks ago, and credits it to the Forest National. Of course this is not the correct thing to do, but we'll forgive Bro. Carlisle on condi tion that be never takes anything from the National and credits it to us. "(o away from home to get the news." Monday's Franklin Evening Newt contains the following : "Orion Siggins, Esq., of West Hickory, For est county, is to bo married at Steu benville, O., on Wednesday next, to Miss Allie Hall, daughter of Joseph Hall, Esq. Mr. Siggius m a brother of Mrs. W. C. Howe, of this city, and is a young man of character and abil ity." The Oil City filizzardf on Janua ry 1st, will issue a weekly edition in connection with the daily. The price will be one dollar per year, which will place it in reach of all, and when the excellence of the paper is consid ered, we haven't the slightest doubt but that several thousand will quickly hand in the dollor and reach for the paper eagerly every week. The pros pectus will appear in our next. We have received from the Mar- liu Fire Arms Co., New Haven, Coon., one of their 40 cal. repealing lifles which we think lays over anything yet brought bere for sporling'purposes In general appearance it resembles the "Winchester," but iu many points far excells that rifle for this country. Mr. E. S. Iloyt expects soon to have the agency for this gun, and will doubtless supp ly a good many before the winter is over. A few weeks ago Charles Leeper purchased of R. L. Buzard a sixth in terest in the Blake timber' tract and the lumber manufacturing establish ments thereon, for $40,000. On Mon day he bought of Eli Ritts the third interest in the su me property, includ ing the company store, for the sum of $85,000. This latter interest of one- third has been taken by O. W. and F. M. Arnold. The firm is now changed from Buzard, Ritts & Co. to C. Lee per & Co,. Judge Campbell and the Graham estate retain their former in- Jerests. The origiual firm first paid $150,000 fit the tract and put up the mill and other improvements. The profits have" been sufficient to pay back the interest, and under Leeper's management we predict a good round profit on the present iuvestraeut. Clarion Democrat. Paul Blute, whose serious illness we mentioned recently, died at his home in Hickory township, this coun ty, Monday evening last at five o'clock. He had been in failing health for upwards a year past, his disease being consumption, aud alter a severe attack last summer had recovered sufficiently to re-visit his old home in Canada, returning about three months ago considerably improved, but was taken down again about six weeks ago, from which time he failed rapid ly. Mr. Blute came to this section about twelve years ago, engaged in lumbering and was noted for his ener gy and industry. Socially he was one of the pleasantest ef men, and in bus iness be was the soul of honor and in tegrity. He was aged about 35 years, and besides an excellent name be leaves a wife, two small children and a host of friends to mourn his departure.

Extract Works at Kellottvllle Burned Down Heavy Loss. Geo. S. Hunter Loses Two Build ings by Fire. KELLETTVILLE FIRE. The extensive Extract Works of Kellett & Co., located at the mouth of Salmon Creek, fifteen miles up Tio nesta creek, were burned to the ground on Friday night lost. When discovered the entire inside of the building was enveloped in flames, and all attempts to stay the fire were of no avail. It is supposed the fire origi nated at the arches, the timbers next thereto catching from live coals that had rolled out after the works bad been shut down and all fire supposed to have died out. Mr. Andrews, the Superintendent had left on Friday morning for Oil City with some part vof the machineiy that had given out, and had left instructions to shut down at noon, which had been done. Sup posing there would be no danger that night, the watchman did not go on, and so the lire got under full headway before discovered, which was about 10 o'clock. Everything ioside the building was destroyed, save perhaps the boilers, besides several cords of bark. These works cost originely about $35,000, and there was an insurance on them to the amount of $10,000 or $12,000. Whether they will be re built or not, cannot now be determin ed, but it is natural to presume they will be on account of the immense amount of bark which the Company still owns in that section. The de struction of this property is a serious blow to the community, as it 'jot only cuts oir the disbursment of $800 to $1,000 per week among our people but throws out of employment twenty-five or thirty men. It is hoped they will be speadily rebuilt. GEORGE 8. nUNTEIt's LOSS. Last Thursday night as many of our people were "turning in for the night," the cry of "fire!" broke upon their ears. Ed. Richards had dis coverd the fire, which proved to be the vacant house next to the depot, and instantly gave the alarm. Al though the response on the part of our people was prompt, it was imopssible to save the building, and as the house adjoining, occupied by Mr. J. L. Craig as a residence, was in danger, the work of removing his household goods was commenced. Everything it contained was removed in fair con dition. No sooi er had Mr. Craig's goods beeu removed thau the build ing took fire and also burned to the ground. A strong northward breeze carried the sparks to Mr. Hunter's barn and dwelliug house and placed them in great danger, and it was only through extraordinary efforts that they were saved. The depot was also caught aud was well under way, it being saved only by the most fran tic efforts. A spark from a north bound locomotive falliug on the roof of the first mentioned building was the cause of the fire. The building belonged to Mr. Hunter, whose loss is about $1,500. Mr. Craig's loss will not be less thau $100, while Joseph Keem loses about 200 bushels of corn, a trunk and all his clothiug except what he bad on at the time. We be lieve that none of these parties were insured. Make $20.00 for Christmas. The publishers of Iiutledge's Month ly offer twelve valuable rewards in their monthly for December, among which is the following : We will give $20.00 to the person telling us which is the middle versa of the New Testament Scriptures (not the Revised Edition) by December 10th, 1884. Should two or more cor rect answers be received, the reward will be divided. The monty will be forwarded to fhe winner December 15th., 1884. Persons trying for the reward must send 20 cents in silver (no postage stamps taken) with their answer, for which they will receive the Monthly for January, in which the name and address of tbe winner of the reward and the correct answer will be published, and in which sever al more valuable rewards will be offered.

The Ford-Lacy Case Scttledr" Tbe Ford-Lacy caso, which lias been in the courts for tbe past five years, and which came into promi nence in 183 in a dispute of juris diction between the Allegheny and Forest county courts, has been settled. About the middle of May,1883, when Judge Brown, of Forest county, who has nppoioted S. V. Davis receiver, made an order which virtually placed the management of the estate in a dispute in tlio hands of Samuel Lewis the receiver appointed by the Al legheny county court. On Jane 8, 1883, Judge Brown reversed that or der and thus brought tbe two county courts into conflict. The fact that both receivers had full sway over the vast amount of property involved re sulted in bringing them in contact with each other and complicating matters very much. " On June 15, 1883, Samuel Lewis filed a petition asking that an attach ment be issued against Davis for con tempt. The petitioner stated that his appointment had been sustained by the supreme court, but that by some Jegal proceedings in Forest county Davis and several defendants bad en tered into a collusion to keep him from performing bis duties as receiver. An answer was filed by the opposing counsel, but 00 June 22 Judge Stowe ordered the iseue of an attachment against Davii. The question then arose whether, since Forest county had endorsed and complied with tbe Allegheny county court iu appointing Davis, the sheriff or his deputies could not be prevented from serving the at tachment. A stragetic movement was then planned. The writ was placed in hands of Detectives Harrison and ... Snyder, who after lounging about Warren for a couple of weeks, seized Davis one evening at the depot aud rushed him off on a train. Davis' friends got a writ of habeas corpus from Judge Brown, and started in persuit on a special train. The news had been telegraphed ahead to Kane and when the two officers arrived there they were attacked by a mob, and-their prisoner taken from tbem. Davis was then taken back to War reu on the special and the detectives returned to Pittsburg. - A deputy sheriff from Forest coun ty afterward came to . Pittsburg to arrest the office! s for the attempted abduction, but only succeeded in ar resting Snyder, Harrison escaping by jumping out of the window of the mayor's office. Harrison made hid escape because his wife was lying at tbe point of death and Snyder was soon after released. A few months ago, the parties to the suit, seeing that the litigation would be endless, petitioned Comun n Pleas Court of Allegheny couuty to issue an order allowing a settlement by amicable agreement. The order was allowed about three weeks ago, the settlement was made, aod on Fri day last, as stated all was completed. The sum paid by the Lacy party, in consideration of the deeds and papers iuvolved was $75,000. Oil City Blizzard. DIED. tIEIBEL.
