County Surveyor Wbittekia in
forms us that the Fuel Supply Co., of

Michael Henry farm, Pinegrove twp.,
which is believed to be good for 60
barrels. This well is located about
200 feet from the east line of the

prospects of which has the effect to
make Hank smile out loud, and we
don't blame bim.

The Meadville Semi-weekly Ga
zelle, Co). Reisinger's paper, came out
recently in a new form and very much
improved. The Gazette is rapidly
forging to the front under the Colonel's
able management, we are pleased to
note. The fact of tho matter is, brains
are bound to tell iu any enterprise,
and that's what's the matter in this
case.
The Tidioute New has this gentle
hint to those who have friends visiting
them and are a little lax about making
the fact known : "This is our visiting
season, going and coming. Those who
have friends come that they are glad
to see will of course use this column,
to which they are welcome. Perhaps
if visitors watch this column they may
be able to judge whether they are
welcome guests."
Mr. Rudolph Strucken, with his
family, took in the Thousand Island

one of the best mechanics in bis line,
that of plasterer, aud should he con
clude to settle there our best wishes
for success go with him.

A correspondent at Lima, Ohio,
sends us the following particulars of
an accident which happened to Wm.
Sibble, a former Forest county boy:
On the 9ih iust., while working on the
Maltby lease, shortly after dinner he
had bis left baud badly mashed. He
was turning off the band-wheel with
a chisel to make it run true, and in
some manner it caught oo a spike and
jerked his band in between the wheel
and rest. He was brought to town
and taken to Dr. Vailes' office where
the wounded member was given atteo
tioo. The baud was found to be in
bad shape, so that the second finger
was taken off, and part of the bones
removed from the first and third
fingers. The back of the hand was
badly cut and an artery severed, so
that considerable blood was lost be
fore the hand was dressed. He is do
ing very well under the circumstances,
and given good care by his wife, and
is in hopes of being around soon.
Yesterday, while a number of
little boys were watching the opera
lions of John Grubbs' new drilling
rig, above Jamieson Station, one of
the workmen turned on the steam to
start the engine while Claude, the 10-year-old
son of Samuel Campbell, was
standing near the exhaust. The es
caping steam struck the little fellow
as he was turning to leave, scalding
him very severely, though not serious
ly about the left arm and back. He
started for home, a distance of over
two miles, and was in a great deal of
agony when he arrived. Dr. Rum
berger administered the proper reme
dies, and soon had the boy feeling
quite comfortable.

We find this pleasant reference to
our former townsman, Mr. F. E. Mabie,
in the Erie Gazette of a recent date.
All of Frank's large circle of friends
in this section will be glad to hear of
his success and rapid promotion :
"Col. Cogswell, for several years in
charge of the city work of the Acme
Oil Co., of Erie, has gone to Boston
to take charge of the sales department
of the Tidewater Pipe Line Co., a
larger field. The Colonel leaves witb
the regret of numerous frieods. He
will be succeeded by F. E. Mabie, an
Erie boy, who has been with Rice,
Robinson & Witherop, of Titusville,
for four or five years. Mr. Mabie is
thoroughly up in the oil busiuees and
having a wide acquaintance in the
city will be a valuable acquisition to
the company."

"Everything is quiet on the Poto
mac." The Glorious Fourth passed
off in a harmless and deafeniug racket.
I fired off my two bunches of crackers
and calmly munched my ginger bread
while I watched the balloon which
did not go up (as usual). The streets
were crowded. The gay young fellow,
hand in hand with his girl, wandered
perspiring around trying to see the
sights. The weather was fine and the
merchants did a big business. Thus
another red letter day takes its place
among the things of the past.
The face of the farmer now wears a
complacent expression. The "fourth"
ushered in a change of weather, and
the bay mows are rapidly assuming
that overflowing look so comforting to
the beholder. The rye is being har
vested and wheat is about ready to
cut. It makes me sigh to see the
farmer riding around on his reaper
and biudcr which kicks off a bundle
every rod or so, as I think of the
many bard days work I have put in
with a cradle. Don't mistake my
meaning; we use a baby carriage.
One of our neighbors purchased a
drill this spring to put in corn for
fodder. It works complete. He put
in 18 acres in two days for himself and
uearly enough for the neighbors to
pay for the drill. He fs a bustler and
makes farming pay.
One might think that a town
lighted by electricity would not need
any illuminatiog oil, but we boast of
three refineries, besides one at North
Warren. They like to locate near
this Tiona or amber oil. It makes
good chewing gum. The Muir Refin
iug Co. have just completed their plant
with a capacity of 6000 bbls, a month.
They will employ about 15 men wheu
they are ruoning full capacity.
I'm a little like Oliver DiUon, when
unexpectedly called upon by some
ladies to return thanks at dinner. It
was a little out of his line aud rather
than refuse he made the attempt, but
when he was ready to close, he could
not think of the proper form, so he
finally said, "yours truly, O. Ditsoo."

OBITUARY.
Died Io Tionesta, Pa., July 15;
1889, Laura G., wife of R. W. Mer
riara, aged 36 years, 4 months, and 2f
days.
Mrs. Merriam was the youngest
daughter of Kowletter and Margaret
Powef, and a grand-daughter of George
Power, who Is said to have been the
first permanent white settler in Vo
nango county. She was reared io
Franklin, where, In December, 1878,
she was united in marriage with the
husband who survives her. This
union has always been a most happy
and congenial one, and was blessed
with the birth of five children, all of
whom are living.
The death of this most estimable
woman is one of the saddest occur
rences that has happened Io our com
munity for many years. About six
years ago Mr. Merriam engaged him
self with an extensive firm in Ten
nessee in the manufacture of staves, a
business with which he was thoroughly
conversant, and in which he command
ed a good salary. By industry, fru
gality and close attention to business
he had won the confidence of his em
ployers, and was doing more than well,
when sickness overtook him, and after
a struggle of nearly two years he was
obliged to give up his situation and
seek a climate more adapted to his
constitution. He accordingly came
north again, and shortly after located
here about two years ago. The change
did not, as be had hoped, bring with
it an improvement, and his physical
constitution has ever since been broken
down. During all this time bis loving
wife devoted herself so faithfully to
bis care and comfort that she did not
realize the strain with which she was
taxing her nerves, until about five
months ago, she was suddenly over
taken by nervous prostration and had
to take ber bed, which she was never
again able to leave. Her phyeician,
nevertheless, had strong hopes of her
ultimate recovery, though necessarily
slow and tedious, until about ten days
ago, when she experienced a severe
back-set, which her weakened consti
tution was unable to withstand, and
after much suffering she passed peace
fully away Monday evening about 5
o clock.
The deceased was a most exemplary
woman, a consistent member of the
Presbyterian Church, a true and de
voted wife and loving mother. She
seemed anxious to live and get well
because she was so much needed io the
care of her afflicted husband and little
children, whose great grief seems un
bearable.
May He who doeth all things well,
comfort the stricken husband and
lather, and assiBt him to bear up
under his great trial.
Funeral services were held at 5
o'clock last evening at the residence,
Rev. J. V. McAninch officiating, after
which the interment took place in
Riverside Cemetery.
Queen City, Hickory Twp.
The late rain did a great deal of
damage here by tearing up the plauk
road between this and Stowtown, also
taking the bridge that crosses the

Master Willie Normile, while play
ing oo the bank of tho creek the other
day, fell in and came very near being
drowned. 1 he baok on which he was
standing gave way, and bad it not
beon for his Aunt Hattie, who was but
a sboit distance from him, he would
have been taken out iuto the stream,
it being just below a dam aud the
water of course was very swift.

The Clarion Jacksonian gives this bit of
warning: "A bbrewd game was played on
a few of our business men one day last
week by a couple of sharpers. Thoir mode
of proceed ore was this: One of the rogues
would enter a store where they would no
tice a lady attendant, and buy from hor a
small amount of goods. In pav mont they
would tender a five or ten dollar bill, re
ceive their chango, and immediately leave
the store. In the evening when the money
In the drawer was counted it was discov
ered tlmt the bills received from these
strangers had been raised from a one dol
lar bill to the amount for which they had
beou passed. The bills raised are of tho
Silver Certificate issue, and the raise was
made by pasting a dark green figure 5 or
10, as the case might bo, and which were
presumably cut from a rovenuo stamp,
over the faco ol the figure 1 on the right
hand side of the hill. Tho left hand side
wus torn directly through the vignette,
and was again put together by pasting a
dark piece of munilla paer on the lack
of the bill, and just big enough to cover
the large figure 1 on that corner. Tho
figure 1 on tho left hand corner of the back
was orascd with ink, ami tho entire bill
hail lieen rubbed and creased until it had
a very aged appearance An expert would
have easily detected the fraud, but it was
a good Job, aud calculated to doceive any
person iiiiucciiHUmiod to handling much
money. The rogues succeeded in getting
about $-0 from thoir victims, and got out
of town before the crime was discovered.
Our iieighlHiriug towns should bo on tho
lookout for the chaps."
