column paper and very much im
proved. It is the largest paper pub
lished in Forest county and is certain
ly a credit to its proprietor. We
wish for it continued success. Emlen

The Forest Republican comes
to us in an enlarged form and is other
wise greatly improved. It is now the
largest, and decidedly the best news
paper published in Forest Co. We
hope the enterprising publisher may
be rewarded with a large increase of
subscribers Clarion County Observer.
We publish this week tbe mar
riage notice of Mr. Geo. L. Scott, of
Marienville. While it is a little late
getting here, owing to the fact that
George depended on the clergyman to
send it in, it is not too late to offer our
young friend and his bride our choic
est good wibhes for a long and happy
life.
Rob. HoBkius, of the Bathgate,
Dakota, Sentinel, in an unguarded
moment, consented to umpire a match
game of base ball, and now the atmos

and Rob. promises never, never to be
guilty of such a rash undertaking
again.
The premium list of the Warren
county Fair, to be held at Warren,
Pa., August 30th and 31st, and Sept.
1st and 21, has been issued, and is
much more extensive than usual. Tbe
Warren county Fairs are becoming
quite noted as among tbe best in the
State, both in point of exhibits and
premiums.
A postoffiee named Byromtown,
has been established at Byrom's sta
tion, Forest county, to which mail for
that vicinity is now sent instead of to
Pigeon. Clarion Democrat. This is
slightly erroneous. The office at Pig
eon is still in '.existence, with W. II.
Frost as postmaster. But the new
office at Byromtown is correct.
The law forbids any pensioner
from bargaining, selling or promising
bis quarterly pension to any other
dealer or person before it baa become
due and been paid, and that on the
other hand all persons are forbidden
by law to accept the same for credit
or otherwise. The fine is fixed at $100
for any violation of the act, and is
equal upon the soldier or dealer.
Mr. Lockhart, of Shippenville,
Clarion county, bas been here during
the past week putting up a monument
for Judge J. G.Dale. Tbe monument
is of what is known aa White Bronze,
and something eatirely new to this vi
cinity. It is 11 feet high, and 4 feet
square at the base, and makes a very
fine appearance. We wouldn't won
der if it were the means of bringing
Mr. Lockhart many other orders from
this section.
Horace Greeley knew what he
was talking about when he made the
following observations: "There is
nothing easier than to edit a black
guard newspaper, and nothing more
difficult than to get up a newspaper
free from foulness and blackguardism.
Fishwomen and barroom loafers are
skilled in the art of bandying epithets
and bespattering each other with dirty
words. It requires no brains to do
(bis, but it does require both heart
and btaios to print a newspaper that
a decent man or woman can read
without a tluah."
The first renper and biudor set to
work iu Forest couuty, was in opera
tion in Judgo Troper's large wheat
field on bB German Hill farm last
week. The machine worked splendid
ly, wading through the heavy wheat
with apparent ease, and keeping two
men busy as nailers gathering sheaves.
We hope to see more of these ma
chines in the county in a few years,
and will if our farmers continue in
their present prosperity.
Forest fires are raging to an
alarming extent in Erie and Warren
couoties, owing It the protracted dry
weather. Mill Village, in Erie coun
ty, was surrounded by fire, and only
by tbe most strenuous efforts was the
town saved. Along the Pbila. & Erie
railroad, between Sheffield and Kane
the destruction is quite heavy. An
immense fire is reported near Garfield,
Warren county, which is ruining much
timber, and greatly endangeiiug the
oil wells in that locality.
A very interesting relic has come
into our possession in the shape of an
aged paper, called tbe Ulster County
Gazelle, printed in Ulster county, N.
Y., on tho 4th day of January, 1800.
It is dressed in mourning over the
death of George Washington, nearly
the entire paper being devoted to that
subject. Among other queer adver
tisements is one which offers for sale
"A Stout, Healthy, Active Negro
Wench," and directs "any person in
clined to purchase, to John Schoon.
maker, Jun., at Rochester."
The extreme dry weather is be
coming a matter of serious alarm
throughout the country, and crops
everywhere are suffering terribly, in
many cases being totally ruined. Corn
is wilting and shriveling up, while
oats are fast turning, although in
some instances scarcely half filled.
It will require a great deal of rain to
save tbe potatoes, which are fast dy
ing. Fruit has come to almost a stand
still and is falling from tbe trees by
the bushels. It is the severest drought
this country has experienced for many
years, not having had a soaking rain
for two mouths.
Pleasantville correspondence to
Titusvillo Citizen: II. J. Hopkins is
wearing a pleasant smile as he passes
the cigars around among his friends.
He is the happy father of an infant
daughter. Mother and child ate do
ing nicely. J. J. Haigbt, of tbe
Cooper tract is down looking after his
oil interests at Shamburg. Mr. Haight
is a practical oil operator of many
years experience, and in his judgment,
this is one of the cheapest aud most
profitable fields to operato in the oil
country at the present time. He
backs his favorable opinions by invest
ments at Shamburg.

This must have been something on
tho principle of the notorious case of
the forged naturalization papers some
of which were colored with coffee, to
give them the appearance of age, in
that "wretched apology for a hotel at
Phillipsburg," kept by Kepler. How
one thing will bring up another, as
the fellow said when he took tbe emetic.
The register and recorder has
supplied the city recorder, aldermen
and justices of the peace with blanks
for taking out marriage licenses. This
will obviate the necessity of making a
trip to tbe county seat. It is only
necessary to repair to the nearest jus
tice office and make tbe necessary
statements in order to obtain full 'per
mission to wed. This should check
the matrimonial rush over our neigh
boring border and increase the pin
money that falls to Pennsylvania cler
gymen's wives. Blizzard. Register
Shawkey has similar blanks ready for
distribution to the Justices of this
county, who should make application
at once, as there's no tellin' how soon
a matrimonial cycloue will strike the
community.
The Derrick sent a man to the
spot who makes the following report
relative to the Caruahan well : "The
well of Carnahau Bros., of Tidioute,
in Harmony Twp., Forest county,
that created something of a breeze
last week, has settled to a 20 to 25
bbl. pumper. The oil is blaok and
apparently about 40 gravity; is sur
rounded by dry holes, and there is no
doubt that tho felicitous strike is only
a happy pocket. Last year Mr. Kep
ler drilled a well very close to the
Carnahan well, without fiudiiig oil.
Mr. Cornen, who visited the well on
Saturday, satisfied himself from the
number and location of trial borings
around it that the well had no outlet.
It was tubed on the 8th inst., aud on
tbe 15th it had 450 barrels of oil to
its credit. Tbe well created consider
able excitement which bas entirely
subsided. While it is a nice thing to
have in a family, color and gravity
are against it."
A Gettysburg correspondent of
the Philadelphia let, under date of
July 13, gives the following item,
which will be of interest to the Old
Boys in this section : "Tho 83d Penn
sylvania Regiment, which was sta
tioned in the bloody wheat fiold dur
ing the 2d and 3d of July, J8G3, held
its reunion ou the same spot and olect
ed as president Lieutenant Colonel G.
C. Anderson; first vice-president,
John Caldwell; secutid vice-president,
J. U. Shroyer ; secretary, A. B. Mann ;
treasurer, Eli Chambers. They de
cided to erect a monument on tho po
sition and will dedicate it on July 2,
1888. Those present at the reunion
subscribed $1700 towards tho monu
ment fund. This amount, together
with tbe $1100 State appropriation,
will make $3000, and all the surviv
ors ore not yet heard from."
Murder in Oil City.
Oil City was the sceue of a horrible
murder last night. John McNerney,
who resides ou Palace Hill came home
io the eveuiog iu a sulky frame of
miud. His son John, of Ashtabula,
O , who bad arrived that day on a
visit, was preparing to retire at 11
o'clock, for the night. He had just
ontered the bed room, when the old
man seized a musket and pointed it at
the head of his wife, aud pulled the
tracer. Tbe gun was not more than
a loot from his wife's head. The en
tire top of her head was blown off,
killing her instantly. The son rushed
out of the room and wrenched the
still smoking gun from bis father, and
ran out with it. The old man secured
a 38-cal. revolver and followed. He
shot at the son the ball entering his
head and causing what is thought a
mortal wound. Officers were soon
summoned and in attempting to arrest
McNerney, Officer James received
quite a serious wound from his (Mo
Nerney's) revolver. McNerney was
thot iu the back by Officer Wordeo,
liut it is not believed to be a fatal
wound. The murderer is 60 years of
age, aud had been drinking excessive
ly, it is said.
Band Entertainment.
On account of being unable to se
cure tho Court House in limo for the
4th, the baud boys changed the date
for their entertainment to Thursday
evening, July 21st, which will be to
morrow evening. An entirely new
program bas been arranged and the
boys expect to eclipse their former
effort in that line, and will give a de
lightful fcbow, free from vulgarity of
any kind, and teeming with fun and
merriment. The boys have ordered
new uniforms, and will have some dif
ficulty in raising sufficient funds to
life them, and the object of these en
tertainments is to assist them in doing
so. The band is a credit and pride lo
our town, and the citizens should be
liberal in their patronage, especially
when they always get full value for
their money. Dou't forget the date,
at the Court House, to morrow eve
ning, and turn out. Admission 25
cents, children 10 cents.
Niagara Falls Excursion.
On Thursday, July 28tb, tbe Buffa
lo, New York & Philadelphia Rail
road Company will run one of its pop
ular excursions to Niagara Falls. The
train will leave Tionesta at 6:30 a. m.,
Hickory 6:45, Truukeyville 6:55, Tid
ioute, 7:10, &c, arriving at the Falls
at 1:00 p. m. Returning, will leave
the Falls at 8:00 p. m.. giving excur
sionists seven hours in which to view
the many interesting eights of the
world's greatest natural wonder. The
fare for the round trip is but $2 50.
Those who have never been there
should not miss it by any means. The
train will be in charge of that popular
excursion agent, Mr. S. B. Newton,
which is an assurance that everybody
will be made comfortable and happy.
Remember the date. Always take a
lunch.

Miss Rose E. Cloveland, tho President's

"Stand up for America, w herever you are.
Don't Imitato any foreign stylos or nian

anything else; even 'very English.'"
The London Court Journal gives tho
following graphic history of the life and
career of Buffalo Bill, who is doing Iin
don town In company with his howling
band of savages: "Hon. W. F. Cody
(Buffalo Bill) was a closo companion of a
man named Boono, who discovered Ken
