The coulractnr of the Shannon Kelly A Co. well, oua half mile south east of Nebraska, Green townshfp, has a fishing job on hand, having lost a bit in the hole. The well is down over 1,000 feet, and will be completed n about ten days after they get the drill started again. Should these par tiis make a strike, it will open up an immense new field. The baodJioys have inaugurated a series of ice leam festivals wfiic iaae piaca every Driday evening iu the band room. Wuodington's delic ious Oil City cream will be kept on tap, and considering that the boy's are struggling hard to keep up expenses, we hope they will be liberally patron ized. Who would want to be without the band again since we've had a taste of it? Mr. Lewis J. Kirk, accompanied by his son, A. C. Kirk, of Kirk's Mills, Laucaster county, Pa., were io town a few hours ou Tuesday of last week, and gave us a pleasant call Mr. K. is still largely interested iu rorest county lands and looks long ingly forward to the time when they shall blossom forth as .oil ttrritorv As one of our most valued frieuds we w ish his fondest hopes may be speedily realized. Ou July 9th, the B., N. Y. A P K.

It will be observed that no words are wasted, like they geueially are in the case of a foot-race or dog tight: "Jiditor Lee Vance, of the Clarksburg Xews shot Editor Rich ards, of the Telegram, last week. Hie first shot passed through Richards' arm and the second hit hira in the mouth, the ball being deflected by his teeth, lodged in his shoulder." Miles W. Tate Eiq., for nineteen years a practicing attorney at the For est County Bar, removed with his fam ily to Meadville, ou Tuesday of last wek. Mr. Tate was one of the first lawyers to locate in Tionesta upon the re organization of the county, and at once dropped into a successful and lu crative practice. His reasons for leaving at this time are mainly ts se cure the advantage of Meadville's plendid schools aud colleges for his children. We wish Mr. Tate and family abundant happiness in their new home. Mr. Isaac Long departed for Phillippburg, Kausss, the town near which Mr. J. Shawkey now resides, last week, intending to embark in the mercantile business there. Although for the past two or three years Mr. L. has lived just over the line in Clarion couuty, we nevertheless claimed him as a Forest county citizen, and ns such very much regret his departure from our midst. We need not wish hira success, for a man of his sterling integrity and never-failing judgment is bound to be successful wherever he goes. They don't make nny squarer I men than Isaac Long, and tho Re- pi'blican wishes him happiness in bin ) .newabndc. J On Sunday afternoon last Rich ard, the 15 year-old son of Samuel Winger, was drowned while balhin in the Allegheny river, about three miles above Oil City, in company with his brother-in-law, James Kennedy, lhe latter made a heroio attempt to save the boy, but was unable to do so, nearly losing his own life in the strue gle. The body of the unfortunate lad was shortly after recovered. John Ryan, aa employe on the mill of James Cole, just over the line in Elk county, east of Marienville, was killed on lhe 2d met , by being caught in a belt and thrown over the line shaft with such force as to crush his skull. Although he had work in that section for several yenrs, his most mtimato acquaintances knew nothing of his connections or antrce dents. He was given a enod buria by his comrades.

One of the most savage little run aways that we ever witnessed took place last Thursday evening. A son of Thomas Brace bad hitched Henry Brace's horse to the lamp post in front of the Republican office, and when he was about to unhitch the animal it took fright, broke the halter, rau down the lane, cut across and thundered against Brockway's ice houso, rushed down toward the barn, smasbinc an Id buggy thai stood iu the way, flew round the corner of the barn to the southwest corner of Jim Carson's lot, smashed down about two rods of bis fence, broke loose from the buggy to which he was hitched, tore throui Carson's garden, arouud the house, ipped a bran now hammock into hrods, and landed heL foremost into cave. This last act bTNoed to bring the horse to his senses aud was eas- ly caught, but was eutirely bare when be stopped.

I often look back to those old Alio gheny river hills with a good deal of pleasure, and do hope that in God's good provideuco I may have the pleas ure ef seeing thorn again. I havo not, by any means, forgotten the good peo ple of Tionesta, but we are iu one of the most delightful countries in the Union. Kansas is a wonderful State. Improvements simply know no bounds. Over the entire State everything is booming. Immigration to our State is wonderful. The entire State was never known to be so generally pros perous ; every department of business is running at full tide. Agriculture is constantly improving. Wo had a late Spring fjr Kansas, but the crops are good ; yes, graud. Corn will be the largest ever known in the State, jind is as high as the back of the team that cultivates it. The amount plant ed is tremeudous. The crop of wheat will uot be so large, because thoro was not a large crop put out, but what we have is headed very fine indeed. Har vest has already commenced. Oats could not be better. Potatoes are abundant; we have had new potatoes in market for sis or seven weeks past. We will have at the end of tho year an increase of Rail Roads of at least 4000 miles in the State. The Rock Island is just coming into the city of McPbersou with its track. I saw the process ot laying the track this morn ing as 1 came to my home; 250 bands are employed iu laying this track; they lay at the rate of CO feet of track every three minutes ; frequently they have laid two miles per day. Of course the bed of the road is ready to put the track down. The Rock Island will be the fourth road coming through our city; three in operation now. We have in the city of McPbersou the best central city in the State. There are in course of construction now, nine business houses, and ovr two hundred dwellings, besides many hat have been built since Spring, and over two hundred other dwelhui; bouses under contract. Three or four more Rail Roads will doubtless pass hrough our city insido of eighteen months. McPberson is destined to be a first class commercial center. Her business men are endeavoring to make it the finest business city iu the State. City property cau be bought at reason able rates, but in a lilllo while busi ness lots will command a premium, Mr. Editor when I tell you that we have in the city and county of Me- Pherson some tbirteeu newspapers, tid all of them have a reasonable subscription l et, aud aro living, I think you will say that wo are well upplied with newspapers, wo are. We are having very warm weather now, the mercury running as high as 101. I still receive your excellent paper aud read it with a great deal of pleasure; I am certainly very thank ful to you for your kio.lucss, nnd hope that tho Foiikist Ki.tcui.ica.v may live long to do mirl:iY work fur tho Republican party. Please remember us kindly to all our friends aud neigh- is. Yours lnilv, J. F. Hill. McPkerson, Kansas, July 1, 17. -A brau new Siuger Sowing Ma- hiuu at G. W.

It is indeed a rilcasuro to bo remem bered j and in as much as you havo ro nienibered us, we will return the compli ment by giving you a lettor from Grand Valley. Being an anti-licenso town the lth was olmorved quietly aud orderly. A grand display of fire-works in tho eve ning, was the leading feature, which at tracted a largo crowd. Tlio only casualty that occured was tho killing of Mrs. Jo soph Roed'a cow by lightning. But the peoplo don't allow any deserving citizen to bear their losses singly; in proof of which a stifnclcnt sum of money has boon put into Mis. Rood's hands to replace hor loss.
