The monthly report of opcralioos
ni oil, for January, as published this
morning makes the following showing:
Wells completed, 57, which is 39 lees
tban in the previous month ; new pro
duction 879 barrels, or 212 bhs. less;
19 dry holes, 8 less than in December;
64 drilling wells, a loss of 24, with 29
rigs, or 19 less than tbe previous
month. Tnis slowing is quite
"bullish," and ought to stimulate the

will or not, no fellow can tell.
Mrs. Dinsmore, whose trial for
complicity with King in tbe murder
of J. C. Davis occupied four days of
the Venango couits, wal acquitted of
tbe charge by tbe jury, on Monday
afternoon of Ibis week. In the light
of the former trial, in which she was
convicted of murder io the first de
gree, it ii exceedingly difficult to see
how twenty-four men could get so
widely apart in their opinions one
set contending that she ought to bang,
while the otber find her guilty of no
offense.
The anaual report of tbe County
Auditors, together with the financial
statement of the County Commission
ers appears iu this issue. Tbe show
ing is one iu which every citizen of
the county may well feel a just pride ;
with tbe eounty still out of debt and
a balance of assets over liabilities of
$13,150.G6ao increane over last years
assets of S2.564.57 there is certainly
no reasonable cause for complaint at
the management of the couuty's affairs.
No county in the State can show up as
well by several points.
The Republican has added a
new Gordon job press to its jobbing
department, tbe very latest style,
which for beauty, durability, smooth
running, etc, is Dot excelled any
where. We are, as heretofore, "at
home" to all io need of clean, neat,
and stylish priotiug at reasonable
prices, and all such are very cordially
invited to inspect us. We do no ama
teur work, noitber will we allow any
"smeary, apple butter" jobs, which are
a disgrace to tbe art, to leave the
office. Call aud see us.
At a re union of "the boys" who
attended the Traiuing Field School of
Charlestowu District, Boston, Mass.,
previous to 1819, held io tbe latter
city, recently, many of "tbe boys,"
aforesaid were present, and many were
obliged to send letters of regret,
among the latter is our present effi
cient Sheriff. But it seems bia old
classmates haven't forgotten him, as
witness the following item among tbe
proceedings of tbe reunion published
io tbe Cbarlestowo Enterprise: "The
boys have a reasonable assurance tbat
if they ever visit Tionesta, Pa., and
get into a quarrel, tbe Sheriff of tbe
county, George W. Sawyer, will see to
it that the law ia not too harshly
interpreted."

Mr. B. II. Rice, who for the past
twelve yean hat so ably filled the po
sition of book-keeper for Wheeler &
Dusenbury at Newtown Mills, resigned
that place on tbe 21st ult., to accept a
similar position with a large rolling
stock compaoy in Alabama, whither
he will go in a few weeks. During
his residence io Forest county Mr.
Rice, by hia sterling honesty and gen
tlemanly bearing, has made a host of
warm friends who will be sorry to bear
of his departure, and will join the Rk
puhucax in wishing him unbounded
prosperity in the future.
Last Thursday morning Mrs.
We'i'ngard, wii'a of LoUi: Weiegerd of
Harmony township, met with an ac
cident that will disable her for several
weeks, if not permanently cripple her.
That morning Mr. and Mrs. W. had
prepared to go to Fleasantviile, and
just as they were leaving the house,
Mrs. Weingard removed her husband's
coat from a satchel and threw it on
the table. The next instant the report
of a 32 cat. revolver was beard to is
sue from one of the pockets of tbe
coat and the lady received the ball in
her left arm just above the wrist. They
immediately came to Tionesta and
called upon Dr. Morrow, who probed
for the ball but concluded it was in
expedient to attempt to extract it,
theie being no bones broken. While
the wound is a painful one, it was, to
say the least, a very lucky escape.
Mrs. Ella Dinsmore accompanied
by ber daughter Lilly and ber brother
Milton Phillips, was at the depot this
afternoon on her way to the home of
tbe latter in Pinegrove township, War
ren county. There was a general
craning of necks to catch a glimpse of
the woman wbo bad beeu twice tried
tried for murder and once found guil
ty, and numerous were tbe comments
made good, bad and indifferent. In
conversation with a Bliztard reporter
Mr. Phillips stated that they were, of
course, well pleased with the result of
tbe recent trial and the manner in
which it bad been conducted. He
further stated that had threats not been
ruled out ou both sides the defense
would have shown that Davis had
swore to blow up the Dinsmore house
with dynamite and bad made other
violent threats against the life of Mrs.
Dinsmore, 1 be property turned over
to Mrs. Dinsmore by Davie he said
was worth about $400, is now io tbe

Dinsmore does not profess to have any
claim upou it. Bliztard

HERE AND THERE.
It ia said that the following remedy for
diphtheria, where it has beeu applied
promptly, has never been known to fail in
etrectlng a cure. It is a remody that was
discovered in Germany, and is said to be
the best known. The remedy is simply
as follows: At the flint indication of diph
theria In the throat of the child, make the
room cloan. Then take a tin cup and
pour Into it a quuntity of tar and turpen
tine, equal parts. Then hold tbe cup ovor
a tire ao as to fill the room with the fumes.
Tho little patient, on inhaling the fumes
will fall asleep, and, wbon it awakes, it
will cough up and spit out all the mem
braneous matter, and the diphtheria will
pass off. The fumes of tbe tar aud tur -pontine
loose the matter in the throat thus
affording the rcluf that has baffled the
skill ot physicians. The remedy is simple
and parents should cut this out and pre
serve it. Ex,
Judge Taylor yesterday rendered an
important docision on the lence law. The
old colonial law of 1700 requires fences in
this State to be constructed of a cortain
height and strength. In 1883 the LegUla
ture passed an act allowing cnuntios to
settle tho fence question by voting for or
against the repeal of the old law. Venan
go county voted for tho repeal. Some
months ago cattlo belonging to a Mr.
Cherry, near Rouseville, broko into the
premise of a neighbor named Frost. The
lattor sued Cherry for damages before
Justice Mustard, of Rouseville, and got
Judgment for $0. Dolendant appealed the
case to court, Hancock and Thorp, of Oil
City, appearing for hlui, aud W. J. Breone,
of this city, for Frost. They argued the
case before the court two months ago.
Judge Taylor's opinion BUHtaiuM the Jus
tice, on the gronnd that the first section of
the act of 1700 is still in force in Venango
county ; also, that tho act of 1885 is uncon
stitutional, as it ia special legislation, in
conflict with Art. 7 of the now Constitu
tion. This decision means that if a man
would eolloct damages for the depredations
of his neighbor's broachy cattle, he must
show tbat he maintains the old-fashioned
fence, popularly described as "horse-high,
bull-strong and pig-tight." Franklin
News.
A gentlcmon who pretends to know
says that the secret of Solicitor General
George A Jenks succoss at tho bar was
as much owing to his habit of studying
men as his knowledge of law. Ho made
it a point to learn the weaknesses of the
opposing counsel, and would Invariably
make practical use of his Information. If
bis opponent had a hobby he would force
him to get on and ride at a critical point.
As an instance of this he told the follow
ing story : George and bis brother, Judgti
W. P. Jenks, had opposite sides of an im
portant case. George realized th it he had
the weak side, and knew that hi brother
would knock his argument into a cocked
hat unless something desperate wa done.
Knowing his brother's great bildical
knowledge and his weakness for display
ing it, George contrived to make a couple
of bungling quotations from Scripture at
the close of his argument, in which he
tortured tho inspired word iu a horrible
manner, greatly to the exasperation ol hi
brother. When Judge William arose to
address the jury he immediately proceed
ed to thow them how littlo George knew
about the Scriptures. He gave the quota
tions In proper form, showed that they
were not uttered by the particular propht t
to which they were attributed, and lastly
that they had boeu improperly applied.
By the time the Judge had straightened
out the distorted Kciipture quotations he
had little time left to talk about the case.
And thus, by setting up a man ot straw
for his opponent to knock out, liiHtead of
bis argument, George won tho i-axe,

WHAT AMI TO DOP
The symptoms of Biliousness are un
happily but too well known. They differ
in diflorent individuals to some extent.
A Bilious man is seldom a breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellout
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. Ills tongue will hardly hear
Inspecliou at any time; if it I not white
and furred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive systom i wholly out of
order ana Diarrhea or Constipation may
be a symptom or tho two may alternate.
There are often Hemorrhoids or even loss
of blood. There may be giddiness and
often headacho and acidity or flatulence
and tenderness in the pit of tho stomach.
To correct all tills if not effect a cure try
Green's August Flower, it costs but a tri
fle and thousands attest its efllcacy.
How often we hear middle-aged
people say regarding that reliable old
cough remedy, N. II Downs' Elixir:
"Why, my mother gave it to me when
I was a child, aud I use it in my fami
ly ; it always cures." It is always
guaranteed to cure or money refunded.
