Hallow e'en occurring on Sunday this year the usual frolis us sort of divided. Ou Saturday some of the smaller boys were busy, but on Monday night larger "boys" 8emto have tak en a hand in giving the town a turn ing over, as the evidences showed clearly that muscle was required for some of the work done. The pranks were all of a respectable character, and no serious damage was done'. Mr. August Weingard, who has spent the past six years in the far west, returned last week, and will again take up his residence amid his old friends. Mr. W. has 1m d quite a varied experience during his absence, and has traveled in nearly every state and territory west of the Mississippi, particularly in the mining regions.

On Saturday evening last our young friend Edward Dewoody took the train for Cincinnati, having re ceived tho saJ intelligence, a few hours previous, of the sudden death of his father, Mr. Andrew Dewoody, well k'iowu to all of our older class of peo ple, by whon he was very generally respected as a man and citizen. He was a plasterer by trade aud much of his work in early years still reaiains in some of the residences of this place. We are without particulars as to the cause of his death. His age was about 55 years. Io addition to the foregoing we clip the following from the Franklin Ntivs; "This forenoon Rev. J. M. Dewoody received a dis patch from Cincinnati announcing the death of his brother, Andrew De woody, iu that city. His death must have been quite sudden, as Andrew was In this city recently attending the funeral of bis mother, and looking as well as any cf the five brothers. De ceased was boru iu (his city June 80th, 1332, and was therefore fifty- four years of age. He has a son liv ing in Forest couuty. We are with out further particulars at this writing, except that the present intention of the family is to bring the remains to Fiauklin for interment." Oil Newt. In its monthly oil report for Oo tuber the Blitzard has this to say of developments iu this county aod vi ciuity: "Developments in Elk and Forest counties southwest of Kane have not been attended with any de cided measure of success. Dry holes were met with oo S6G3, S664 aud 3671, and while the Armstrong A B ggs well on 2032 is considered good for about 6 or 8 barrels of oil a day. Sill & Odell have an important venture near the sand on 3779, while Hughes & Co. have started two more tests, one oo 2033 and one on 2026. In the western part of Foren couuty, Als hou-e has completed a third gas well ou 2324. The supply comes from the Sperchly sand. The Kolli & Cornwall ' venture ou 5134 h pronouuued a fail ure. Berry it Co. are conducting a wild cat experiment on 5192 while Taylor & Torrey are starting a test in the same neighborhood. Barnum fc Co. are drilling near Newmanville." It is believed the Berry & Co. venture on 5192 has found a good rand, oud if not a good well it wiW at least satisfy the owners that they have oil id the immediate vicinity. An important wildcat venture is re ported shut down ou top of sand, on lot 5,192, near Tioupsla. Mr. Berry, the owuer, is at present suffering from a severe illoess. There will be noth ing more done at the well probably until his recovery. Derrick. Notes By the Way. In the company of a very good man who kindly gave us a seat in his carry-all, limited to two for comfort and frur for emergency, wo traveled over part of Kingsley township; not a bad township by-the way, and, do doubt, with a good future before it. At German Hill we were right roy ally entertained by Henry Zueudel E?q,than whom Kingsley has do more h'.ispitable citizen. Iu tho brightness of an autumn day German Hill puts on the aspect of a quiet, well ordered, peaceably dis posed, home like farming community, aud a ride over its ever recurring hills and through its constantly occurring ralleys along its winding roads is more than of common-place to him "who delights to commuoe with Nature when iu peaceful mood she sits her down in vale or on hill, glorious in holiday dress bright with the memory of a well dune life work just ended." We made a few notes at Whig Hill. Here they are: The new church on Whig Hill is going right up. It is of the Evangel ical persuasion, and stands up on the top of the high knoll just beyond Mr. Beck's farm from Whig Hill, on the left side of the Whig Hill and Hicko ry road. When completed this will make the third church built on Whig Hill within 7 or 8 years and all in cluded in a radius of less than a mile and a half. The sheds that stood at the Brac-e-vilte school house, put there by Henry Brace for the accommodation of church goers when Braceville was a regular uppoiotmetit, have been taken down, hauled over to Whig Hill, and set up on the M. E. Church grounds there. The shed is 48x20 with chiugle roof, aud divided into six stalls; one of these is boxed off, with door, lock, and key, and dedicated to the comfort of the preacher's horse ou preaching days when his time for staying is limittd. For let it be understood that no min ister's horse will be allowed to hang out to a bush or fenca post for want of shelter as long as Whig Hill retains its present population. A belfry will be built to the front of the M. E Church and a 1000 pound bell bung therein this fall. A water well wil be drilled in the church yard. A caiupmeetiug on the grounds is con templated uext summer; there will be every facility for such a meeting; grounds with a fine grove already fur uished with stand and sealx; a bell to call the people; water from a good well; a church convenient if needed; aod people willing to help such a work aloug. Both the stores on the Hill are do ing a good business. Mr. Gillespie is building a ware-room to his store. Mr. G. is also building a cosy little dwell ing house just below the school house. We do not know no, of course we dou't, but if it ever comes to pass we'll iuvuke the geniuses who presided at our birth and burn midnight oil until the dome of our office is grimy with the smoke but that we'll lender our "best wishes" iu fitting letters.

The unveiling of Bartholdi's statue of "Liberty Eulighteuing the World" took place in New York on Thursday of last week. There Wu8 a big crowd in attendance, aud the ceremonies were conducted on gigantic scale. A conflagration causing the loss of nearly a quarter of a million of dol lars and probably several lives, oc curred in the Knight it Leonard six story building, 109 and 111 East Mad isoii street, Chicago, between 4 and 5 o'clock Tuesday moruing. A Pittsburgh murder case has beco exploded. About ten days ago the remaius of a female was found on a dump ic the river. The coroner was making arrangements to hold the in quest and authorities were doing their best to discover the name of the vic tim, when it was discovered that the deceased was a mummy over three thousand years old. An ignorant janitor had. secretly removed it from the cellar of a female college. Anbaerv'mg eastern exchange re marks: Since it became fashionabls for young ladies to wear a collar and necktie, their superiority to men has been fully demonstrated. You never see a lady with her necktie over her eurs. A brief trial of six months has taught women more in the necktie wearing art thau men have learned in 6,000 years. A human being that can make a necktie stay in place should have the right to cast two ballots at every election. An important decisiou was render ed in McKean couuty court last week, bearing directly upon the validity of speculative transactions in oil. In 1882 Warren G. Gray of the Bi ad ford Exchange bought for account of Mil ler & Lewis 15,000 barrels of oil. When the panic came and the market broke suddenly, Gray was left without margins at 95 ceuts, and finally sold the oil at a loss of $1,616. For this he brought suit, and the only defense set up was the usual one of its being a gambling transaction, and therefore not legally collectable. The court held differently, however, and the jury returned a verdict for Gray for the debt aud interest which now amounts to $2,400. Warren Mail TO TEACHERS. We would like to gel a complete 1 ist of all the children and persons of legal school age not in attendance at school the coming winter term. In order to accomplish this we would suggeBt that each teacher get a com plete list of all the pupils belonging to his school as son i after school opens or, before school opeus as possible. This can be done with little trouble. Check off the list as fast as they come in all enrolled in the school. Thoso remaining will be the ones we wish to know of. Let these names be written io a col umn down along the left side of a sheet of paper; and opposite each name write the reason for not attend ing school. The teachei must be care ful iu getting this item of information that it shall be accurate; and the in quiries made in getting the informa tion should be conducted so as to give uo offense to any one. Where pupils are kept out to work please note wheth er necessarily or unnecessarily. Where ihe cause can Dot be ascertained write "uoknown." Two lists should be made: one ef thiiee between 6 aud 16; the other of those between 16 and 21. Please have these lists made out es early as possi ble, and at all events one week before the meeting of the Institute. A copy of the list should be seut to the coun ty superintendent so as to reach him two or three days before the Institute. The reasou is obvious. Let each teacher try to inako the acquaintance of every boy aud girl in his district. Of course it is cot ex pected that teachers will overstep the boundaries of a sensible propriety in waking the acquaintance of iluse boys and girls. Il will puy to make the effort to get acquainted with thetu. J E HlLLAUD, Co. Kupt. M'sh Maude Davis will take a limited number of pupils at her home, after Oct. 20ih. Term $1 00 a Ks lou. tf. WRITING. From the very 'first day of the term to the very last one attention should be paid to writing. Each day aod every day there should be a definite time both as to location and length for a writing exercise. Pre eminently, writing is one of the things that must he learned by the doing of it. From 15 to 20 minutes should be given dai ly to writing. It is advisable that the whole school take part iu the exercise. If pupils are not supplied with writing material let them use slate and pencil or blackboard ; have them all urite in tome way. Pupils may learn to write by writing "when they have time,'' or when they "have nothing else ti do," but they will learn and Jearo better by having a regular lime for writing. If in addition to this pupils wish to write when they have leisure from oth er work we see no reason to say any thing against it. A? to the time when, we would sug gest just before recets in the forenoon. All the pupils who will be present during the half day will be present against that time. If the ink has been frozeu it cau be thawed acainst that time. The pupils will be likely to be in proper physical as well as proper mental condition for the exercise. No other work should be done dur-'. ing the tirao lor writing, lbere ere now nine branches required by law to be taught in the common schools. .But . of ail these reading, writing, and. arithmetic are the three io which it is neeiraoie every pupil soouia De made quite proficient in the common school. We do not iutimite that the other branches are useless, not at all ; each has a valuable use io the economy of education. But we do insist that pu pils should be made as proficient as possible in these three. Arithmetio gets all the time it should have, gen erally. But there is a tendency to neglect reading aud writing, and es pecially writing. This should not .be. A teacher must use his judgment as to time for writing, both in length and plan. While it is true that time is an important factor in the study of any of the branches yet timo is not everything. The way in which the time is used, and the manner in which the work is done have much to do -,;.t. u. t ii.. . . TVIfcU ICBUIkB. U. 111. 111L1.1UU, Co. Supt. List of Patents.
