Oil market closed yesterday 731. OpeniDg this morning at 731c. Geo. Dougherty is at his former place in Mr. Fulton's harness shop. Hon. Peter Berry of Balltown, was iu the burg a few hours yesterday. Dr. Stillnon of Tidioute, who has been in Florida for some months, has returned home. Mr. David Ramaley's cheerful countenance again smiles on the cus tomers at Robinson's store. Mr. Ham. Foreman, who has been stopping in the Washington county oil field for some time past, came home fur a few days' visit last week. , Mr. II. H. Stow of Bradford was in town Saturday and took occasion to shake hands with many of his old friends here, by whom he is always cordially received. Born. At Herman, Minn., on May 3d, 1886, to Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Vought, a daughter Herman Herald. Many congratulations from yonr Tio nesta friends, Luther. The Einlentou ssnii-weekly Critic, one of our welcome exchanges has been materially enlarged and im proved, and shows unmistakable signs of prosperity, all of which we rejoice to know. Court nest woek, and it gives promise of being an unusually busy one. Seventy-two jurymen, and a correspondingly large number of ex tra witnesses, clients and lawyers will just about fill up the town. Hon. II. S. Bates and wife of Ti tusville, spent last Sabbath with Tio nesta friends. We observe Mr. Bates is a candidate for re election to the Legislature, aud should be elected, for he made a good member of the last scsion. The Franklin News hears that "important developments have recent ly been made which may lead to the arrest of the Lickingville murderers." While nothing new has been learned hereabouts, we hope tho News' infor mation is reliable. We understand a well has been located about one-half mile farther down the creek from the Alshouse well on Hemlock, Tionesta township. The owners will be satisfied with eith er oil or gas. The well on the Botzer farm is an unmistakable duster. There will be a meeting of the school directors of the county in the Superintendent's office on Tuesday afternoon and evening text, court week, for the purpose of a general consultation on school affairs. And it is desired that every director who can poesibly will be present. The height in feet above the level of the sea of a number of oil country points ia given as follows: Bradford, 1,464; Butler, 1,010; Emlenton, 905; Franklin, 988; Kane, 2,015; Karns City, 1,204; Oil City, 1,009; Olean, 1,438 ; Parker, 899 ; Hmethport, 1,493 ; Tidioute, 1,112; Titusville, 1,181; Warren, 1,183. Last week Mrs. G. W. Sawyer departed for Boston, Mass., being summoned there by the serious illness or her aged tatber. bne arrived a few hours too late, however, to see him alive. His name was Henry Robinson, and he had attained the ripe old age of 87 years. His wife, aged 84, and several daughters, sur vive him. Mr. W. W. Kellett of Boston is paying a visit this week to the busy little village that hears his name, to make some observations as to the progrefs of the new tannery that is building there. We dare say he found the work progressing finely undr the management of bis wide-awake super intendent, Mr. Howe, who is well Bpoken of by people of Kellettville. The death of G. S. Crosby Esq , late editor of the Kittanning Free Press, occurred on Thursday last, 6th inst. Mr. Crosby had Buffered with consumption for some months past and was obliged to relinquish his con nection with his paper, os well as an intention to try for congressional hon ors in this district. He was aged 43 years and was rapidly rising as one of the prominent men of his section. Hon. Marriott Brosius, the Re publican Candidate for Congressman at large on the Beaver ticket in 1882, contributes to the Philadelphia Week ly Press of May 5, a most vivid and stirring account of the siege and cap ture of Fort Wagner aud the part taken therein by the 97th Regiment P. V. Mr. Brosius' reputation as a master of the English language is sustained by one of the roost impor tant approaches to Charleston. Arthur Kirk, president of the Western Pennsylvania River Improve ment association, is satisfied with the appropriations given Western Penn sylvania in the river and harbor bill, and says most of the appropriation for the Allegheny will be spent between EaBt Brady and Pittsburgh, and when this is done boats drawing twenty inches of water may go up and down at any low stage of the river Bliz zard. V The dogwood is now in 'blossom, being fully three weeks earlier than its usual time for coming out. The clear white blossom, tipped with a purplish hue, h very pretty, and many of our ladies with an eye for the beautiful bring bouquets of them on returning from a ride in the coun try. Franklin News. As a matter of piscatorial information we will add that the blooming of the dogwood is a never-failing sign that "Buffalo suck ers" are on the liffles. The Grove Brothers of this place, who have boen operating quite exten sively in the Grand Valley field, have come in possession of one of the best piecas of territory in that section, and which is bound to yield them a band some thing. It is pleasant to record the good fortune of these our towns men, and we hope they will get all out there is in it. They have stuck to the drill with a pluck that is com mendable and tbeir prosperity will be a matter of pleasure to all our towns people. Mr. Samuel Clark met with a painful accident at Tidioute Tuesday of last week. While attempting to climb over a freight car he, in some unaccountable manner fell giving bis left hip joint a terrible wrench, and otherwise bruising himtelf. He was1 unable to be moved for several days, but is now at home and improving slowly. It is the second time within the past two months that he has been brought borne from Tidioute on a cot, and it would seem that fate is against him in that latitude. The borough schools have come to a close for the season. The term has proven a very satisfactory one to the patrons, a profitable one to the pupils, and we trust a pleasant one to the teachers. The school at Gilfoyle, thia county has been waiting several weeks for Miss Kerr to finish here; she commences the term there in a ftiw days. Mr. Ketr, we believe, has no objective point ia view at present, and will take a few weeks of recrea tion. Miss Keller goes as one of the faculty in a new college just started in Ohio. All depart from amoDg us bearing with them the best wishes of our citizens for their future welfare. Maj. Hilton's lectures at the Court House during last week were a source of much enjoyment to the au diences that greeted him on each eve ning. Ha is an eloquent and polished speaker, entertains bis listeners from the start, and impresses them that be is terribly in earnest in his work. A eounty convention of the W. C. T. U. is in session at the Presbyterian Church to-day, and this evening will hold a mass meeting in the Court House, which promises to be well at tended. This meeting will be address ed by Major Hilton and will finish bis series of lectures here for the present. Everybody is invited to come out this evening. Next Monday evening, 17th lust., at the Court House, Chaplain Wood ruff will exhibit his Stereopticon views of the life of General Grant, which will embrace over 100 views il lustrative of the life of the World's Greatest Soldier, from the ciadle to the grave. The Chaplain is a fine speaker and will give a good descrip tion of every scene that is presented. He comes under the auspices of Capt. Stow Tost, G. A. R., to whose beuefit a percentage of the proceeds will go, and the entertainment should there fore be liberally patronized, lhe ad mission will be very reasonable 25 and 15 cents so that all can enjoy it who wish. There ib a rare treat in Btore for those who atteod. COUNTY CORRESPONDENCE. CLARINGTON. James Ward is lying dangerously ill with Bright's disease ; he is not ex pected to recover, Mrs. Jos. Landers is quite sick. Mrs. Johnson, daughter of John Henderson of Sigel, died of consump tion at Sigel, on Friday, May 7. Mrs. Dunkle is having a house built on the Brookville road on the Jefferson side of the creek up from the bridge a short distance. J. B. Pearsall's health has so far recovered as to permit him to atteod to business agaij. Mac. Elder lost a valuable horse from pneumonia. Jackson Haight has bought 40 acres up on Cherry Creek, has built a small bouse and moved thereon. Braden & Elder's mill is running. Tbey have quite a Block in. NEILLTOWN. A new well was struck on the Lan ders farm last Monday week ago. It is probably good for 10 barrels at least. As far as indications are con cerned it is the best well yet found there, the sand being better and thick er. It is a short distance Dorth or nearly north of the old wells there. The well on the Foutz place will soon be down. Mr. Krautzer and family have moved away, Mr. K. having bought an oil production somewhere near Bradford. ELSEWHERE. Business seems good at Brookston and in the vicinity. The pigeon hunters report the pres ent season's experience as a quite un usual thing in the pigeon line. They say the pigeons were here, sure, but at the time they came the snow was too deep to allow feeding and they went elsewhere. A few have stayed but tbey are young ones that have not nested heretofore. The only hope now is that after nesting elsewhere they may come back here again. Duriog the very dry weather of two or three weeks ago the forest fires in the hemlock slashings from Pigeon down toward and beyond and below Bowman's Mill on the "extension" were fierce and quite destructive. Two houses with almost the entire contents were destroyed at Bowman's. Quite an amount of logs was more or less injured. The stumps are being blown out of the road leading from the station at Vowinckel to the Corners, and beyond toward Cookaburg. Dynamite is the persuasion employed. We pause long enough here to move to amend the original motion by inserting a small cartridge under the woret mud boles along tne above mentioned route. A son of Daniel McCanna'e, living near Greenwood, has had the misfor tune to lose to a great extent, his eye sight. Some time in February last his eyes began to fail, he having been troubled previously with the peculiar eye trouble known by the general name of "pink eye." Previous to that time his eyes were good and strong. HICKORY. Mr. Carlson's new house ia rapidly nearing completion. Giading on the Stowetown R. R. has not began yet. We presume the building so attract ive in architecture and paint standing near the road down below the depot is the new tannery office-building. Up along McArthur Run one sees notices nailed up to trees here and there warning the trespasser to be ware. Dr. Shamburg stocked the run last year with trout and is determined to enforce the fish laws in that "neck o' woods" if possible. ONION SETTS very cheap at Smtarbaugb & Go's. 2t. Kellettville Items. Capt, Kellett of Boston arrived Sunday. Lyman Conk of Nebraska is visit ing relatives here, and also taking in a litte fishing ; no doubt Lyme has in his time flipped more of the speckled beauties from these streams than falls to the lot of moiU anglers. We neglected to mention the pres ence of Mr. Charley Walters, in speaking of his brother John last week; we didn't mean to slight you, Chas., not by any means. Miss May Sloan began her third term of school here yesterday ; which speaks for itself as to M'ibs May's pop ularity ns a teacher. Robert Fryar has located a shoe shop here, where he will be found at "awl" times. A foot-bridge now spans the Tio nesta at this point; one man put it up in a day, to you may form some idea of its stability. A good, substantial bridge is what this place needs, but we fear it will be some time before we get that. Charley Whiteman now drives a haodsome new team which he pur chased in Clarion Co. A couple strangers came to town one day last week with about 400 fine trout. They gave them to Mrs. Arner who cooked them fit to set before a king. Mr. Levi Pierson has taken the con tract of peeling and delivering 2000 cords of bark from W. W. Kellett & Co. Ezejciel. Brookston Items. Barkpeeling has commenced in good earnest; the Forest Tanning Co. shipped three car loads of provisions into their camps during tho past week. Mrs. Will Sheeley of Highland is dangerously ill, and is not expected to live. The little daughter of John Billy dew mat with a severe accident by falling out of the door and cutting its face very badly. Dr. McNett dressed the wound and the child is doing well. Black eyes are fashionable at pres ent; the most of our young men wear them. Dr. C. C. Smith has just began to plant his potatoes. II. Tousley has painted his house and also planted quite a number of shade trees, which adds to the appear ance of his place. Mr. Frank Dickson has purchased a new speeder which will save some of his sole leather. Married At the residence of James Schwerd field, at Brookston, Pa., by W. S. Cole, J. P., Mr. James Brine to Miss Delia Haven, all of McKean Co., Pa. Observer. Our Western Rivers. The river and harbor bill has pass ed the house with the Monongahela river appropriation all right, and the clause providing for a government es timate of the value of the Navigation company's plant still standing. The Pittsburgh portions of the appropria tions are in much better shape than the course of the debate led people to expect, and the probabilities are the three rivers have received more in proportion to the estimates than any others in the bill. The Monongahela, which caused the principal fight, re ceives $121,000 which was the full amount called for by the engineers. The proposition for purchasing the Slackwater plant dwindled down to a provision to inform congress what it was worth, but it makes a start to wards a government purchase and is regarded as a very favorable com promise both by Col. Bayne and Mr. Boyle. The Allegheny gets $40,030, about the same reduction from the es timates that other rivers have bad to suffer, and the Ohio, though not men tioned near Pittsburgh, gets a reason able share also.
