Grandin, Kelly & Co. lost, by lightning, two wooden tanks contain ing 1,000 barrels of oil dunug the storm at Buck Mills last Thursday, which is said to have been one of the heaviest that has visited that section for many years. People who leave their houses un occupied for thirty days cannot collect for loss by fire, unless they obtain the written consent of the insurance com panies with which tbey are insured. This is a fact not generally known, says the legal editor of the Franklin News. William B. Hoyt, aged 58 years, died at the residence of his son, Ezra S. Hoyt, in this place on Saturday, July 31, at about 9 o'clock. Mr. Hoyt had been in feeble health for upward of ten years, and for the past four months had not been able to leave his bed. He was the father of six children, three sons and three daughters, all of whom survive him. Mr. Hoyt was a highly respected citi zen of Sheffield, Pa., for more than 25 years, whither hU remains were taken and laid to rest by the side of a lov ing wife, who had precuded him in death eight years. T. F. Ititchey Esq., returned from his western trip last Thursday eve ning, having been absent nearly two months. He took in Washington Territory on his way, some parts of which impressed him quite favorably, A cruise on the Pacific ocean was also one of the pleasures of his journey. By reference to the Council pro ceedings in this issue it will be ob served that tho gas ordinance is re pealed, and the council invites the officers of the company to meet it next Monday and come to some ami cable terms for the passage of a new ordinance. We hope, with all others who expect to use gas, that a satisfac tory ordinance will be passed aod the admission of gas into the borough be speedily accomplished. Tbe Republican takes pleasure in extending heartiest congratulations to its young friend J. W. Pettigrew of President, upon the happy event of his marriage with Miss Abbie C.

Clark narrowly es caped serious injury while attempting to drive Mr. Clark's horse over the river bridgo last Thursday morning. The animal became frightened by a passing train as he was entering; the east end of tbe bridge, and commenced backing until the vehicle went over the abutment, a distance of about 10 feet among the rocks, and finally go ing over himself. Strange to say Mrs. Clark was only slightly bruised and was able to walk home. The bugy OBJ was quite badly damaged, and the horse received some bruises. We are in receipt of a large and very carefully executed engraving of the new Standard Oil Company Build ing, 2G Broadway, New York, which is noteworthy as the finest business structure on tbe greatest commercial thoroughfare of this continent. The enormous granite pile, 200 feet deep, aud almost two hundred feet iu height from foundation stone to pinnacle, is entirely given up to the executive of fices of the Company, which is enti tled to credit for having added so im posing and enduring an example to the great commercial monuments of the Metropolis. Tbe seventeenth annual reunion of the Eighty-third Regiment Associa tion will be held in this city Septem ber 9th, and the third annual reunion of the Northwestern G. A. R.

Excursion rates will be made over the railroads. The program is not yet comploted for pub- licatiou, but will soon be ready, and will be porfect in every detail. Mead- ville Tribune.

Tbe Tionesta Gas Co. has estab lished its rates, and issued a schedule for the inspection of its consumers. The rates are substantially as follows: For heating, per month, No. 7 burner $4.44; No. 5 burner, $3.33; No. 3 burner, $2.22, witb a discount of 10 per cent, if paid before the 10th of the month. These rates will be charged for the months of November, Decem ber, January, February and March. One-half rates for April and October, and $1.11 per month for May, June, July, August and September. For cooking purposes the rates from Octo ber first to May first will be, No. 7, $4 44, No. 5, $3.33, No. 3, $2.22. And from May first to October first, No. 7, $2.22, No. 5, $1,67, No. 3, $1.67, with 10 per cent, off for cash. We believe it ia calculated that the No. 3 burner will be sufficient for ordinary family use, and tbe No. '5 for stores, hotels, &c. This brings tbe fuel down to a very reasonable sum ; fully as low, in fact, as wood or coal, to say nothing of the great trouble and vexation saved by its use. The above rates are the same as those of Warren, Pa., where a compromise between the Peo ple's and the Penn'a Gas companies was effected, which rates have given entire satisfaction to the citizens of that place. The Company will have completed the laying of its main to the borough limits to-day or to-morrow, aod doubtless before two weeks have elapsed will commence making connections. It is our opinion that nine-tenths of the houses in town will take on gas. Hurry on the gas. Ho, for Niagara ! The B., N. Y. & P. R. R. will give one of its popular excursions to Niag ara Falls on Thursday, August 12. The special through train will leave Tionesta at C:00 a. m., arriving at the Falls at 1:00 p. m., returning will leave the Falls at 8:00 p. m., giving excursionists seven hours to view the sights of that greatest of natural wonders. The fare for the round trip is placed at the nominal sum of $2.50, which ia simply dirt cheap. Those who have never been there should take in this excursion as it will be the only one of the season. Don't forget the date and be on band early. Council Meeting. Tiosesta, Pa., Aug. 3, 1886. Council met at residence of Bur gess Reck. Present, Burgess Reck and all Councilmen. On motion it was ordered, That the Borough Ordinance passed July 27, 1886, relating to Natural, Gas Com panies, not having been accepted by any of said companies, be and the same is hereby repealed. On motion, the Secretary was re quested to notify the President aud Secretary of Tionesta Gas Co. of the repeal of ordinance relating to admis sion of Natural Gas Companies into this Borough, and that they be invited to appear, if tbey see fit to do bo, at a meeting of Council to be held Aug. 9th, 1886, to offer any suggestions in relation to new ordinance on that sub ject. P. M. Clark, Seo'y. Oil News. The Derrick Bays, in its monthly oil report for July, that Balltown proper is quiet. At Fool's creek N. F. Clark is drilling a small well. Grandin, Kelly & Co. besides keeping up their end of the skirmish line on 5215, have gone back to the mouth of Pbelp'i run to drill for an eastward extension of the old field opposite their first two wells on the Cook lands. The Anchor oil company finished a pair of small wells on 5214, and James C. Welch is believed to have a well on the Green farm a mile southwest of the Anchor wells on the same warrant. The Green well is said to be plugged. It is on a good line which ia all that may be 6aid about it at this writing. If tbe persouel of the prospector has anything to do with tbe success of the prospect, the well will be a producer. Iu the event that this is a well, either it is tbe beginning of a new pool or the narrow suckerrod belt narrowly extended. At tbe Anchor front the the belt is only 300 feet wide, and a mile further along it will be very nar row indeed. It is heading for the narrow space between the Dufur dust er aod the Hancock & Kennedy dry hole on Whig Hill. For Sale.

One can see a great deal that is news to himself as he travels along through this district and that, but when he attempts to reduce the same to news for the columns of a newspa per it ia like trying to reduce the froth and flutter that fills ll-10ths of a glass of soda water to something that's tangible. It smells good and tickles your nose and face and mus tache kindly and pleases your palate while you drink it, or while you think you're drinking it, but try te reduce it to something real and you find it to be simply and solely the product of a previoua "fizz" a "fizzle." Almost everybody out bere ia wait ing and wishing for a flood in tbe Clarion. A colored minister occupied the pulpit in tbe M. E. Church on tbe evening of July 27th. The Rev. brother is working through the adja cent neighborhoods in search of funds for the completion of a church for colored people somewhere, we think near or in Mercer. He had a large audience, and preached them a straight sermon. He is meeting with some success in gathering money. A. J. Wallace will leave the House in October. His future for awhile at least will be near Reid home Ball- town where he has oil interests. Lester Warner of Redclyfle long an esteemed citizen of "Old Forest" is lying quite ill at his home there. We trust he may recover. The Coleman Mill is shut down on account of scarcity of water to "bracket" logs down the run. A stave mill is to be put iu at the school- spring near the Fitzgerald house before Ion?. Some time ago a piece of vandalism was perpetrated bere that deserves se verest censure and punishment. A flatboat belonging to Braden & Elder is lying at Maple creek under the pier there. At the time referred to it was partly loaded with largo hem lock plank of three inches thickness, laid lengthwise along tho boat, there being a short spaco where the ends of the plank meet. R. J. Ilillard lives in the old boarding house standing back from the bank not far from the place where the boat lay. About 3 o clock in the morning some one of the family was awakened by an un usual light streaming through the window. Inquiry led to the discov ery that the boat was on fire. Anson and Philip Hillard were aroused and hurried down to the boat. The fire was burning among the plank near the ends of the piles. At first water thiown on seemed to do no good. Other help was summoned, the plank pulled up, and the fire put out. It It had undoubtedly been fired pur posely and maliciously. The school at Oak Woods closed on last Thursday with a picnic. The Shriver school closed on Friday with a similar good time. Some of the patrons of the school and a num ber of visitors were present. A table was spread out under "the greenewoode tree," scats were arranged, and the feast eaten. There was chicken and pickle and cake 14 kinds and each belter than the other and pie, just one kind, good pie, and ail the other etceteras that help make up a picnic and a good time. Tramp. The Wrong Man Caged. Recently we published a letter from II. II. Wilson, of Towoville, now languishing in the jail of Clarion County, charged with complicity in the murder aud robbery of the Ever hart family. It will be remembered that Wilson asserted his innocence and stated that he could substantiate his claim when tbe opportunity was given him. We were favorably impressed with bis letter; in fact, we could not believe that it was written by oue guilty of a revolting crime, and we took occasion to Buggest that the pub lic suspend judgment until the prison er was given an opportunity to be heard in defense. At tbe time we published the letter referred to, we had no knowledge of Wilson ; but up on subsequent inquiry we learned that he has always borne an excellent rep utation witb his neighbors and friends, and those who know him best do not hesitate to assert that bo has been most foully wronged. Wilson's case will doubtless have to take the usual legal course, but if it can be hurried up it would teem but an net of simple jus tice that the machinery be set iu mo tion at the earliest possible moment. Meadville Tribune. Iu connection with the above it might be stated that the Clarion Dem ocrat publishes a lengthy article giving details furnished by Detective Jack Kribbs from which it would seem the man Wilson is innocent of the charge. In a few weeks the trial will come up when ho will have an opportunity to show his iunocence. THE CAMP-MEETIXH. The Oil City District camp-meotlng this year, commences at Tionesta on.
