Last Friday afternoon, Clifford,
the four-year-old son of Andrew Carr
ftll out of a hammock and sustained
a fracture of the left collar-bone. The
little fellow was just recoveriug from a
fall of a day or two previous, which
injured the same bene but did not
break it, thus making the latter hurt
doubly painful.
Oue of tbe pleasant events of tbe
season was the marriage on Wednes
day last, of Miss Nellie Hunter, to
Mr. Frank Amsler. Only the imme
diate relatives of the bride and groom
were present at the marriage, which
occurred at 6 p. m., at the conclusion
of which an elegant wedding dinner
was partaken of. The newly wedded
pair will make their future borne in
Pittsbuig, where the best wishes of
many friends here attend them.
The hay harvest Is pretty well
whipped throughout this section. Tbe
crop bas been a very fair one, gener
ally speaking, although nothing like
the big crop of last year, Tbe wheat
and rye crops are now receiving the
attention of farmers. These can
bardly be said to be up to the average,
Oats could not look better.
The men who take your advice
never give you a chance to forget that
it was your advice if it -turns out to
be bad for them. Atchison Globe.
And why should they? On tbe other
hand, if it should turn out good for
them, you will never give them a
chance to forget that it was your ad
vice which they acted upon.
Arrangements have been made
for a game of ball on the Tionesta
grounds, on Saturday, Aug. let, be
tween the Juniors of Marienville, and
the Juniors of this place. Tioneeta's
juniors put up a pretty good game,
and as we understand the Marienville
boys are right up to snuff, an enter
taining game may be expected.
The Clarion Jachonian says all
aspirants for appointment to the
Judgeship, iu place of Judge Wilson,
deceased, have given way to Capt. W.
W. Itarr, who seems to be the choice
of the Clarion Bar and the Democrat
ic party, and that be will be the next
Judgo. Capt. Barr has many friends
in this county who would hear with
pleasure of his appoiatmeot.
Unless be is pardoned, Samuel
Wayman, whose conviction as ono of
the murderers of Emory Thayer, of
Avon, N. Y., grew out of his arrest in
Oil City a couple of years ago, will be
executed at Geoneseo, N. Y., August
6th. As the murder referred to was
committed before the passage of the
electrocution law, Wayraao's death
will be by bangiug. Blizzard.
A man named Chris Kunfer met
with an accident on Collins & Co.'s
mill, Nebraska, on Monday, which
may yet prove serious. He was acting
as tail-sawyer on the circular mill,
and in some manner bad his right leg
caught between tbe carriage and roll
ers, crushing it very badly from below
the knee to the thigh, but breaking no
bones. His physician, Dr. Biggins,
considers the bruise a dangerous one,
the results of which cannot be foreseen
at present.
Tbe hall game between Titusville
and Tionesta, set for last Saturday on
the grounds of tbe latter, was post
poned on account of rain. A game
will doubtless be played between these
two clubs some day this week, but tbe
date has not yet been fixed. P. S.
Since this "was writ" word has come
from Titusville that their team will be
here next Saturday, and the game will
be called shortly after dinner. Don't
miss it. There's promise of an inter
esting game.
Mr. Eli Iloleman, while lathing
on one of J. M. Kepler's new buildings
Monday afternoon, fell backward,
striking bis right side against a sharp
corner of tbe woodwork, and sustain
ing a fracture of one of bis ribs. He
kept on working fur a while after bis
breatb returned, but the injury became
so painful that he was obliged to give
up and call in a physician, who soon
discovered, as above stated, that one
of bis ribs was broken, but believes
there was uo other internal injury.
Albert Lawrence got a severe clip
on the eye from a "foul," Monday,
while playing on the ball grounds, and
will likely be housed for a day or two.
And right here it might be well to
remind tbe boys and men, too, that an
ordinance prohibits the throwing or
tossing of ball on the streets, a practice
which bas been considerably indulged
in of late, and which is dangerous in
many ways. Tbe penalty is $5.00
fine. It is hoped those who have been
practicing the dangerous pastime, if
they can read, will take tbe bint.
Some quail liberated iu the woods
near Busti, N. ., are said to be in
creasing rapidly. Why wouldn't it be
a good plan to introduce these delight'
ful little game birds iuto this country
again? At one time many years ago,
to be sure the pleasant note of tbe
Bob While, was a common thing to
hear as one passed through the farming
communities, and there is no good
reasou why they should not egain
become plentiful if given a fair chance,
They flourish best as tbe country
becomes more settled, and tbe foxes
become scarcer.
Of the camp-meeting, mention of
which was made in tbe Republican
of last week, and which opens to-mor
row. Thursday, the Franklin New
says : Tbe success of the Wesleyan
camp-meeting is already assured, so
far as attendance and patronage can
make it so. Tbe 47 tents which will
compose tbe camp have all been rent'
ed. In addition to these, there will be
a tabernacle tent, 30 by 50 feet, for
meetings. Tbe situation of tbe camp
in Bleakley Park dry ground, finely
shaded, well lighted at night, and
commanding a full view of the city
and valley of Franklin is so attract
ive and cooveuieut that it is certain to
draw a large attendance. There is
not in this part of the country a more
comfortable, healthy and beautiful
spot for a camp. Able and exper
ienced camp meeting conductors and
revivalists will be in charge. Many
Franklin families will camp on the
grounds and make their summerouting
within sight of the home nest.
No little excitement, as well as
considerable amusement was occasion
ed last Saturday in an effort to re
capture Mr. Brennan's valuable parrot,
which bad escaped a day or two pre
vious. All the boys, and a goodly
share of the men of the town joined in
tbe chase, which extended nearly the
entire length of the town, the bird
being able to fly quite a stretch, and
generally managed to find tbe highest
tree and tbe highest limb on the tree.
The heavy and steady rain finally told
on Polly and she was at last obliged
to take to tbe tall grass where tbe
capture was made. It cost the 'Squire
ten or twelve dollars to settle with the
boys, but the satisfaction of getting
bis pet back was ample compensation
for the outlay.
Argument Court.
Yesterday Judge Noyes, with Asso
ciates White and Clark held argument
court here, when a number of matters
were disposed of.
A petition was presented asking tbe
appointment of viewers for the purpose
of vacating and supplying the road
leading from the Hunter grist mill to
a short distance below Jamieson sta
tion, running along the railroad track.
The court appointed Messrs. Henry
Riser and Wm. B. Heath as such
viewers.
Mr. Ritchey presented a petition
asking for the appointment of a com
mission to inquire into aod report
upon the avisability of re-uniting the
Borough of Tionesta as a whole, and
doing away with the ward line. Tbe
petitioners' prayer was granted, and
as such commission the court appointed
Messrs. John Thomson, and R. O.
Carson, Harmony township; W. B.
Heath, Kingsley twp. They will
make a report at next term of court
Ever since the ruling of the court
on the license question at May term,
in which the question of the division
of the Borough into wards was raised
as an objection to the granting of the
same, there has been some little doubt
as to the legality of the election of the
present officials of the Borough. To
set matters right the Burgess aod
Councilmen offered, through their
Clerk, P. M. Clark, Esq., their resig
nations to the court, in order that the
court might fill the vacancies by ap
pointment, thereby removing all
doubt. The court was of the opinion
that such a course was unnecessary,
and tbat the present officials were offi
cers de facto, and therefore their acts
were valid so long as tbey were not
legally meted. Aod so the matter
was pressed no farther, and the officers
will go on about tbeir business as
usual.
Mr. J. C. Confer, of Maiienville
was appointed Jury Commissioner,
vice John Muenzenberger, resigned.
The New Oil Field.
There is no abatement in the ripple
of excitement caused by tbe recent
developments in the new field south of
Little Hickory creek, and the hunt
for leases is getting quite brisk all
along the line, extending some dis
tance in advance of any developments.
Patterson has two good wells, one on
tbe Furuace and one on the Smith
tract. The latter started to pumping
at 75 barrels, and will not drop below
25 or 30 barrels very soon, say the
experts.
Wolcott & Son's strikes are still
showing up well, aod they have made
several runs of oil through the pipe
line, which has already been counected
up to the new field. Their beet well
is on the Pownell farm and is a nice
25 barrel pumper. Tbey are putting
more rigs up ou the latter place, aod
also on the Vockroth farm which lays
well to catch future developments. In
fact Messrs. Wolcott have a full mile
of territory that seems to bo right "in
it."
l'alterson is putting up more rigs
on the Furnace and Smith tracts.
JNicdoIsod, ol Uil Uity, Is rigging
up on tbe Charles Albaugh farm aod
will soon have tbe drill started.
Tbe Grove & Shields well on tb
Cbris Cropp farm will be drilkd to
the third saod. It had ooly gone to
the second sand heretofore.
J. II. Hardisou has secured a lease
of the Diekrager aud Wiuker farms,
and will cummeuce a rig on the latter
forthwith.
There seems no question but that
the field will be a prolific- one, with
perhaps uo great gushers, but nice
paying pumpers, afl'ordiog a handsome
revenue to both owners and operators.
Tbe distance from Tionesta to tbe new
field by road is between three and four
miles, on an air liue perhaps two and
one-ball miles.

Ms). D. V. Horlckson, one of Meadville's
most prominent citizens, is hopelessly ill.

Talmage never said a truer thing than
that one of the noblest things in our hu
man tiaturo Is tho feeling that prompts us
to say nothing but good of the dead, and
the meanest thing in our nature is to wait
until they are dead before saying it.
The condition of John Lynd, of Slver-
lyvillo, who bad bis back brokon, remains
about the same. Though he lias passed
the dangerous period, bis body Is dead
from the waist down, aside from the life
given by the circulation of the blood, and
must so remain as long as he lives.

he never knew what it was to stand on bis
feet. The bones of Mr. Abbott's legs con

and the injury was as painful as a similar
mishap to any man.

Don't forgot that there's no economy in
turning down the wick of an oil lamp, A
fair experiment will show that in cither
case about the same amount of oil is con
sumed; only, In case the wick is low, the
oil is not fully consumed, but turns into a
gas that poisons the air. It is a deadly gas
and is the unsuspected cause of much ill
health. Always keep youi lamps burning
In the ordinary way, or else blow the
fiame out.
Crows are not so black as they look and
deserve our commiseration. We have it
on the authority of Ira Munsoe and M. V.
Blore, who have watched their habits this
summer. Each of tbe gentlemen named
have a field of potatoes near tho woods.
Munseo went out to paris green his field
when ho saw a very largo flock of crows
who seemed to be wonderfully busy, while
a few stood on the fence aud trees as senti
nels. The army were among the potato
rows picking off the bugs. Upon exami
nation no bugs were found iu the field.
Mr. Blore found a similar state of affairs

In these warm days when one feels in
clined to spend a good deal of time in
keeping cool and quiet, it is rostful to sit
down with a good periodical to read ; and
no better one can be found than tho mid
summer numbor of Peterson's Magazine
Unlike tho Petorson of old days, which
consisted entirely of stories, the new Pet
erson offers numerous bright attractive
features, which appeal to the entire family
circle. It is profusely and handsomely
illustrated, and got up in a manner that
makes it rank with the four dollar maga
zines in appearance, as it has long done in
merit. Its stories and pooms are from the
pens of many of our leading authors and
its illustrated articles and miscellaneous
papers are always as interesting as they
are varied. The August number is a
capital specimon of this lino magazine.
