It's editor, a very "amoosiu cuss," thus bids adieu to his readers: "I struck this town in (ho early spring of 1890. Through tho English Syndicate which controlled certain breweries and newspapers, I became connected in official capacity wilh the Reporter. The object of the syndicate in obtaining control of this journal was to work up a healthy sen timent in favor of breweries. My mission has been a failure. I retire from the field after several months hard work with my labor for my pains. This town is fine enough to booze, but the express office has the call as tho medium of procuring it. My original package venture did not pan out ns I had hoped. I sold a great deal of tamarack, and gave four tin cups with each keg, free of charge, but Congress, with a perversity well known as a characteristic of that body, kicked the prop from under the Fuller soft snap, and left trie high and dry, and my colleague, Silverman, playing checkers wilh his Jewish nasal appendage be tween the bars of the county hostile. I leave the town. I don't believe that many tears will be shed at my depart ure.

Bovard received the very tad intelligence of the death by acci deut of Mr. James McElhaney, whose wife- is a sister of Mrs. Bovard, aud paid her a visit about six weeks ago. The accident occurred near Peters- ville, Butler county, on Saturday moruing, the particulars of which are given in a disputch from Butler, as I'uIIowb: "James McElhaney, a prom inent producer known all over tbe oil country, went out to his wells on Sat urday morning, reaching there about 10 o'clock. He was assisting to draw the rods, wheu by some mishap the tubing line became entangled around (be sucker rod board above, causing it to come crashing dowu through the derrick. Mr. McEIbancy heard tbe crash and exclaimed, "Look out boys," involuntary ducked h:s head forward, tho board coming end first struck him squarely on the hack of his head, crushing in the base of bis skull and breaking his neck. Death was in staotancniio, aud his hand, when pick ed up, held iu death grip the reverse lever. He was carried to the hotel and the sad intelligence conveyed to his family. The body was taken to his home in Butler last evening. Mr. McElhaney had operated tn the Mil leistnwn and Bradford fields and had accumulated quite a fortune. He moved his family from Millerstown to Butler little more than a year ago. Ho was 40 years of age and leaves a wife and two grown up children and a host of fripnds to mourn his untimely death.". Mr. and Mrs. Bovard left on Sunday for the scene of the distressing occurrence, and were present at the funeral. OBITUARY. CHARLES E. LAKDEUS.

Tho recent death of Jnines Wigton, of Cranberry township, Venango county, at the age of eighty yeais, has recalled tlio memorable tragedy w ith which his namo was connected. Ho was a man of power ful frame, a typical backwoodsman, and ho lived in Slipperyrock township, Butler county, near what is known as tho Stone liouso, until an event occurred which cast a gloomy shadow on ull his tut uro life, An account of llio tragedy that thrilled and horrified ail this part of tlio country is thus condensed by tlio Franklin .Veui: mi ino last saumlav or June, IslJ, an Indian known as Sam Mohawk, w ho iiad passed down tho road to Butler from the upper lumbering country somo days pre vious, came to tlio Stono House ou tho stago ou Friday, lato iu tlio evening. In Butler he had been acting suspiciously Ou his arrival at tho hotel, without knock or a warning, ho passed up stairs into the room where tho landlord, Mr hill, was slceinng. Sill ordered him out and picked up u club to hasten his dcpait lire. Tho Indian left, and it is (.opposed he passed tlio night among the ris ks near tlio Stone House, as ho was soen going up tho road early tho next morning. Ho went directly to tiie house of James Wig, tou, who was away from home, huving gono to the house of his father, a mile dis tant, to get a horse to use in his farm work. Mrs. Wigton and her Ave small children were alone in the liouso. .lust what pass ed there no one was loft to toll. Before the return of tho husband, Lemuel Davis, who with his wife and son, had como to help Wigton with his hoeing, entered the house and beheld a scone such as no pen can dopict. Mrs. Wigton was found lying in a pool of blood. Evidently sho hail not yielded hor own llfo and the lives of her children without a struggle. Ono of her hands was cut nearly off as though a knifo had been forcibly drawn through it. It is supposed that she tried to defend her self with a butcher knife which was found near by, stained with blood. Her babo in tho cradlo was found with its brains beaten out. Four children in tho sleeping room up stairs wero found similarly mangled and dead. A atone which had been used in tho fire-place of tho wash house, in place of an iron, was found covered with blood. Tliis had been tho Instrument of ileum in ino hands or tlio ncinlMi sava"o. Mr. Davis aroused tho neighbors, and soon nioro than a hundred excited peoplo were at tho sccno. It was soon learned tiiat tl.e Indian had been at Joseph Ken nedy's and had thrown a stouo at young Joseph. Mohawk was hotly pursued and ran to Philip Keistor's house. Thero wero no men about tho place, and the women, who were already informed of the murder, hastened to leave tlio house. Tlio Indian entered and ran up stairs. Tho pursuers rushed after him, and one of tho number, Mr. Blair, was knocked down by a stone thrown by tlio savage. Next an attempt was mado to got a dog up stairs, but to no purpose At last, soveral of tho men, carrying a board over their beads, to keep off the missiles of Mohawk, mado a rush up tlio stairway, seized tho Indian, overpowered him and tiod him with bedcord. Then they led him to tlio liouso whore tho man gled bodies of his victims lay. He ac knowledged his guilt but Bald nobody could prove it. It was with difficulty that tho Indian could be saved from lynching. He was taken to Butler, tried in duo course, and sentenced to death. He was hung In tho spring of 1841.
