Kerr gives some pointers on the coming Institute in this week's .issue. From the array of talent ad vertised to be here, the Institute can not be other than decided success. No teacher in the county should think of absenting himself from this meet ing. The law is now such that their pay goes on, and the intention is that all teachers shall be present. Superintendent Baird, of the Dead-Letter office, has issued a circu lar to Postmaster telling them "in all cases to collect one cent for an adver tised letter on delivery, whether the same has been published in a newspa per or in a posted list, and to affix and cancel a corresponding postage due stamp, as evideoce of its payment, in compliance with regulations," Michael Brecht, an old aud high ly respected citizen of Beaver Valley, Hickory township, died at the home of bis son Daniel, on the 21st iost. Mr. Brecht was aged 71 years on the day of his death. Ho was the father of a large family, all of whom are now grown to manhood, and some of whom are still among our most useful and honored citizens. He voted for Gen eral Harrison in 1840, and again for his illustrious grandson at the recent election. Teachers and others attending Institute are respectfully invited to call at the Photograph Rooms opposite Lawrence House, Tionesta, Pa., and see specimens ot work, should you witih cabinets ot yourself you should call early in the week and avoid the ruh. Best work guaranteed. Will remain ouly a short time after tbe hol idays. Cabinets S3. 00 per doz. Will be open on Christmas and New Years to accommodate those who cannot come at any other time. 3t There shall be no more coasting on tbe sidewalks, Bays the town council And they mean business. It is not only dangerous to the unsuspecting pedestrian, hut to tbe small boy who indulges in tbe sport as well, and the edict is therefore sent forth and must be heeded. Ihe Kepublican bad a reporter at tho meeting of the irate borough dads on Monday evening, aud they bad blood in their eyes when tbey voted the resolution through with a rush that meant much. A fair warning to the boys and girls. The monlhly oil report fur No vember shows 309 wells completed ; new production, 3MG0 barrels; six dry holes. This is an increase of 83 new wells over October and shows 518 more barrels of new production, with six more dusters. .In tho work under way there are 324 wells drilling, 205 rigs up and building. Compared with last month Ibis shows 12 more rigs and decreaso of 5 drilling wells. The bulk of the new production comes from tbe Southwest and Butler and Armstrong districts. Venango and Clarion show the mopf new w.rk. Venango appears to be the strongest territory. Clarion showing a falling off in production On the whole, the repoit is considered favorable under the circumstance, as all possible efforts are made to rush work before suow lies. Operations in the new oil field of Harmony township will be active for the next three or four weeks.

He said, "that is my son Dan;'-' I said why don't you arrest himT He Is the man that done the kill' ing, and you are the man that directed it; John Evereart turned pale, shook likeone palsied, staggered back and dropped to tho ground. ." Soveral witnesses testified to quarreling and jangling in the family.

I said t would stay in jail 60 years '.before I would swear that. Cross-examined: T could not see who it was. I did not see him plain enough to tell who it was. ' " ' Tins KNIFE. The defense wished the Court Steno grapher to be sent to Mary Everhart's room, she being ill, for the purpose of re ceiving her evidence to the fact that the missing butcher knife had been In her pos session; that she had taken it to Edinhoro with ber. The Commonwealth admit this fact. A. W. Klnch recalled : I did not tell Haslett that I found the stick Wednesday, and that tbe prosecution offered me $"0 for it. Hid MONET FOR A STICK. S. II. Haslett testified: Kinch told mo the Commonwealth wanted the cane or stick be found at Everhart's and they of fered f"0 for tho cane, that they had the stump to fit It.

Cross-examined: I had known at the time that Mary had.taken the knife to Edlnboro, but I forgot It tho day of the homicide. Christ Mahle testified: I was at Ever harts the morning 'of the homicide; they were sitting at breakfast; Mr., and Mrs, Evorhart and myself were having fun; they were joking me. Abe Heplor testified: Kinch told me he found a stick the day before the funeral; that he put It in the old house, that after ward he (Kinch) took it to the coon hunt and could not find a stump to fit the cane and he threw it away and picked up one laying there. Kinch also said that he wished I would get him on to work up tbe case for the Evci harts; that there was no money on the Commonwealth side, and he was tired of working for nothing and that Everharts wore not guilty. Michael Moran testified : Fulmer was at my Btore before the homicide; ha said he had been at Everhart'sjnnd got part of his clothes, and John Everhart said If his wife had the clothes'washed In time he would bring them to my store on his way to Fryburg, the next Monday. S. II. Rayen, Ralph Alt, Jacob Miller, and S. II. Reynor were called, had ques tioned Joe Brewster after the homicide. A 11 he ever answered was that when be came home be found grandmother lying with her throat cut. Mrs. Rayen and Mrs. Whltmore found plenty of sugar and coffee in the house. Rev. C. II. Frainpton testified : I am a Methodist Episcopal miulster; I knew John Everhart and his wife; was there quite frequently; I was at bis house for throe or four weeks in the winter of 1884 and 188.1, when I was holding protracted meetings; I never saw any quarrels be tween John Everhart and his wife. The same deeds offered in evidence as were oflered in the Horner trial, offered to prove negative motive showing the title of one-third of 126 acres of land farmed by Dan Everhart, was in Dan Everhart prior to the homicide. Counsel for defense offer in evidence a Judgment, May term, 1868, against John S. Everhart. The same judgment assigned to Dan Everhart in 18CU. This, on subjoct of motivo, to show that Dan could by a sci. fa. to revive and continue judgment, could have obtained a writ of execution against bis father and obtained a deed to the remaining two-thirds, despite the re fusal of Jemima to sign a deed for it. Defense rests. IN REUUTTAL. The Commonwealth offored some evi dence In rebuttal, but little except what we have given already. The following was adduced : Mrs. J. C. Bowman testified : Maria Everhart, Dan's wife, told me the day of the homicide she saw Mrs. Jemima Ever hart go to the barn and let the cows cut; she said she thought if Dan did not soon come home she would have to go and let their cows out, for it was then 15 minutes of 12 o'clock; she also said that when she, Maria, was at their barn she was sorry she had not looked down towards Ever harts, as she might have seen something. WHAT J OK TOLD 1118 MOTHER. Mrs. Nannie Brewster, little Joe's in valid mother, testified: The first time Joe came to see mo after the homicide, which was along the 1st of April, he said : "Ma, I was awlully frightened when I found Mrs. (iillillau with bur throat cut." He said he saw Dan at tho barn sharpening his knife. MARY KVERU ART'S STORY. Miss Mary Everhart testified : I had a horse at my lather's furm; I hud sold it and gone for the horse; my father was out of patience anil said he needed the horse; he saiil he would bring it to Newmunville next morning; he did not bring ll: I got the money for the horse last May; he sold the horse last spring; I was insisting that my father should raise money for the re ward; 1 said repeatedly thitt the deed had not been done lor money, but that the money had been taken tocovertheuiiirder. Cross-examined: My father gave me the horse when it was a colt. W. II. Frazier recalled : 1 took Ann Harnett to Mr. Weiduer's ortice; I heard the conversation about the man she saw hioking out of the window; there was nothing said to her in my presence by Mr. Weidner that she should go to Juil if she did not sav tho man with the black mustache was Dan Everhart. Commonwealth rests. The defense oiler no rebuttal. DAN ON THIAL. Immediately upon tbe retiring of the jury in the case John S. Kverhart, the work of empaneling a jury fur the trial of Dauiel Everhart was begun, which con. turned the balance of the day. Mr Rich mond, counsel for tho defense, raised the Iint that if f tit on trial for this murder the prisoner's life would be twice placed In Jeopardy for the same offence. Tho ob jection was overruled by the court and the trial was proceeded with. Following Is the jury: Isaac Mortimer, East Brady, minor. Joseph Heplinger. Paint township, far mer.

A portion of Tuesday's testimony for tho Common wealth Is taken from this (Wednesday) morning's Derrick: Mrs. Mah'o testified she saw Dan and Jim going toward Lickingville about I o'clock. E. Sawyers thought it was between 1 and 2 o'clock, fast time, when he Baw Dan and Jim enter Alexander's store. Jim had a rubber coat on. A. W. Kinch saw them at his hotel In Lickingville about 15 minutes past 1. Mrs. C. F. Whitmoro saw them at Alex ander's store about 15 minutes past 1; might have been more; Horner was on the porch fixing an axe handle; ho had taken his rubber coat off. Robert Young saw them In Klncho's hotel at 1 o'clock. W. C. Bowman: Mrs. Gilfillan was my aunt, Mrs. Everhrrt my cousin; I heard Dan's evidence at the coroner's inquest; he said he saw John Everhart's cows out at 11 o'clock; also that he passed his father's house going toward Llcklngvlhe about 1 o'clock. A. W. Kinch hoard Dan swear at the in quest that be saw his father's cows going to drink at 15 minutes past 11 o'clock. James Gilfillan was with Dan nearly all day Wednesday. In conversation with him Dan said he had been cutting wood at Horner's until one-quarter before 11 o'clock; it was so stormy they quit then and went into Horner's shanty and play od a game of euchor; then ho went home at ono-quarlcr past 11 o'clock and saw tho cows going to water. He said he passed his father's house going toward Licking' about 1 o'clock. S. F. Barnett heard Dan's evidence at the Coroner's inquest aud corroborated Bowman and others as to Dan's testimony John Gilfillan, brother of Mrs. Ever hart and son of Mrs. Gilfillan, talked with Dan Tuesday evening. Dan told him Horner and himself quit chopping wood after 10 o'clock on account of tho snow storm. I got home about half-past 11 oclock. Mrs. W. J. Roberts was at Evorhart's house Wednesday, alter the murder. said: "Daniel, how could all this happen and you so near and know nothing of it?" Dan replied: "I was in the woods chop ping all morning and did not get homo until 1 o'clock for my dinner. After din ner I chopped wood, then went to LlcKing- ville." Mrs. Muhle recalled: Saw N. B. Host going toward Lickingville the day of the murder, before 1 o'clock; sometime after ward saw Dan Everhart and' Jim Horuer going toward Lickingville. E.
