While runuing out a truck load of lumber from the Collins mill at Nebraska, last Friday, Charles Henry was knocked off the track a dislnuce of several feet. When picked up be was found to be unconscious, and had sustained a severe fracture of the right leg below the kuee. He was getting along favorably at last accounts. The colored camp meeting people are here, headed by Rev. Jenkins, and will commence immediately to fix up the grounds for their meetings. Rob inson's grove, on the east side of Vioe St., and just back of Mr. Fredrikson's house, has been secured for the pur pose. It is expected to coutioue the meeting for tea days or two weeks, according to circumstances. Every body is invited to attend. James Gormley, agent for the High Explosive Company, of Brad ford, was drowned in Chautauqua Lake on Sunday of last week. Gorm ley was out boatridiog with a lady. Tho boat overturned. While the lady clung to the boat Gormley endeavored to swim ashore for assistance, but went down. His companion was rescued. -Tlie Patterson well, on the Hay tract, Cropp district, was finished last week and is reported a duster. liar dison, on the Winker farm, expects to finish to morrow or next day. This well is being watched with considera ble interest, as is also the one on the Ledebur farm, by Bovee & Duck, which is getting down rapidly, and will be finished in a few days. Jas. G. Bromley has purchased the interests of the National Oil Co. in the wells located on his farm, at Stewarts Run, and will operate tbem on his own hook. There are four wells, and the purchase includes boil ers, engines, tanks, &c, and Jamts will realize a nice little production from bis investment. He expects to drill one or two more wells this fall. The oil market took a severe tumble last Friday, dropping from 581 to 50 cents. It didn't create a panic, because there were no Iambs to be shorn. The next day it bobbed up to 70 cents again, and still thero was no panic, and for about the same rea son. The lopping ofT of all premiums on oil caused the reaction. A 20 cent jump in oil is a big one, and a wonder it is no one got squeezed. The storm which passed over this section Monday afternoon of this week was the severest of the season while it lasted. While no great amount rf damage was done in town, quite a number of fruit and shade trees were blowu down, among the number being the largo cherry tree iiack of the Presbyterian church. It fell to the northward, about the ooly direction possible without striking some build ing. Corn fields were more. or less damaged by the wiud, as were also uncut oats. Wm. W. Haslet died at tho resi deuce of his father in law, Boyd M. J. .ties, at Nebraska, Pa, Sulurday evening, Aug. 4, 1891. About three weeks ago he left his work at Beavei Valley, where he was engaged in bark peeling, on account of not feeling well and was on Lis way to his home near Guitonville. When he arrived at Mr. Jones' he could go no farther, having become so weakened. . Medical aid was summoned, wben it was discovered that be had an attack of typhoid fever. He grew worse rapidly until, as above noted, death ensued. He leaves a wife and four small children, two boys and two girls. His remains were buried at Guitonville on Monday nfternooo, Rev. Rumberger officiating at the funeral. He was aged about 35 years. Stewarts Run. Mr. aud Mrs. Anderson and daugh ter of Goodwill Hill, visited Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Hogg last Sabbath.

Citizen. The 8. S. Excursion to Chautauqua. The excursion of the Sabbath Schools of Tidioute, Hickory and Tionesta, to Chautauqua Lake, takes place, as noted last week, on Friday Dext, 14th iost. The train leaves Hickory 7:15 a. in., Tionesta, 7:30. Arrives at Chautauqua at 11:00 a. m.,; returning, leaves Assembly grounds at 4:25 p. m., giving six hours at the lake. It is unnecessary to dwell on the beauties and attractions of Chau tauqua at this season of the year. Everybody goes there who can well get there, without coaxing. The at tendance at this excursion will doubt less be larger than at any preceding one. Fare for the round trip, includ ing a ride of 44 miles over the lake on one of the elegant steamers, bas beeu placed at tl.40 from Hickory; f 1.25 from Tionesta. Two child reu between the ages of eight and twelve cau ride ou one ticket. Watson Farm. Here we are again, and suited none too well with such extremely warm weather, yet too courteous, tramp and all as we are, to ask you if it is hot enough for you ; and a great deal too wise, even if our educational ad vantages have been limited, to think we could improve thiogs by being al lowed to exchange places with the weather clerk. 'Most any place is a good place to rest if you're tired, so we'll utter our "Alabama," and sitting here in the shade of an oil tank will pay our com pliments to the rest of mankind, some of whom may be better boused than we, but having not an iota more of God's good free air to breathe. This "didn't used to be" much of a place. Less than 15 years ago a farm or two was cleared here. Still later the Johnson Bros, put a mill in here to cut out hemlock lumber. A num ber of families moved in and a school bouse was built. To day it is quite an oil field. The produciog wells are of the second sand variety so far, and very fair wells, too. The Johnson Bros, are here yet, and have 3 wells on the lease they occupy with their mill, aud good ones. Mrs. S. F. Rohrer, wife of the late ex Supt. Rohrer, owns 63 acres of land here, and it bas proved good territory. Wben the school bouse was built here a member of the board, Mr. Klabbatz, of Byrom, went to see Mr. Robrer to get a piece of land from what he owned on which to build the school house. Of course the ground was easily enough secured, and at the time Mr. Rohrer urged Mr. Klabbatz to buy tbe whole of the lot remaining, fur a farm, offering it for a very small sum compared with what it is now worth. Mr. K. didn't buy. So it is. One never knows how near he has been to fortune (or misfortune) until it is too lata. Most opportunities are tick eted on the back. About a mile from here, down in the hollow, is a saw mill owned and operated by Patterson & Gilfillan. It is running. Tbe lumber is shipped over the P. & W. R R. from here. The Johnson Bros, bave a shingle mill about a mile and a half from here over across on the next hill. Frank Nash is running the mill. One of the fiuest springs of water comes out of the ground, over by this mill, this county can boast of. Mr. Editor, we mean no insinuations when we say that we believe you yourself would enjoy a drink from ibis fountain. Geo. Richards, Robert Ferry, and Jacob Kuhns, all formerly of Barnett twp., live here. Mr. Lewis, a Baruett twp. teacher, is working here also. A mile from here is Iron City Sid ing. Two miles from the siding, over au iron road owned aud operated by the Iron City Lumber Company, is the Iron City mill, tbe plant belonging to the company aforesaid. Togo across tbe bill from here one can reach the camp in a mile and a half. About 75 or 100 men, altogether, are employed in and about the busi ness done there. Tbe compauy has had peeled this year probably 4200 cords of bark. This, with the lying down timber on the tract, will make 6,000,000 feet of lumber which will be cut between this and next peeling season, together with quite an amount remaining over from last season and not yet cut. The members of tbe firm, Messrs. Dunbar, MuCloskey, and Brown, all reside here duriog the summer months with their families. Mr. Dunbar resides permanently in Clarion; Mr. McCloskey at Kane; and Mr. Brown at Mansfield, just be low Pittsburg. Quite a number of persons from Pittsburg have been visitors at Iron City this summer. Not a few of them are teachers in tbe schools there. One of these latter showed considerable skill in handling a Winchester rifle. She could put a ball through a can thrown iuto the air for a mark every time. A good Sunday school is iu operation at the cump. Below Iron City is the Blue Jay Lumber Company's plaut, recently built. A railroad runs down to this place from Iron City. A locomotive brings bark aud lumber from this place up to Iron City. The Iron City road takes charge of it and carries it ou up to the siding aud turns it over to the P. & W. The Iron City sends up a train every day to meet tho after noou train on the P. & W. G. W. Boyd, formerly of Cooks burg, iu Barnett towoship, keeps one of the boarding houses at Iron Cityi and is stocking tbe mill. Mr. Breoneman, one of Jeoks town ship's teachers, is working at Iron City. Thus do these "knights of the forlorn hope" gather conservation of force for the winter campaign. Nash is tbe name of tbe post office here at the Watson Farm, and for much of the country rouod Aere. "Davy" Steele, well known to many in the cuunty, preached at Patterson's mill, in the boarding house, last.eve uiog. There is a Suudav school at Sheffield Junction under the superintendence of Mr. Loomis. In John Burton, clerk in Green's store at Sheffield Junction, we met an old friend. He is a son of William Burton, well known ovr-r in Barnett. The Lamona Bros, have a mill 2 miles from Sheffield Junction, on Warner Run. They manufacture lumber for Hammond & Co., of Corry, Pa., taking it from the woods and put ting it on board of cars at the siding at the Junction. They use a wooden railroad stripped with iron, and a lo comotive to haul lumber and logs. Near the siding and lumber yard is a small cluster of houses and in one of these lives Mr. Soutbworth, not long since of Newtown. We enjoyed a visit with him and bis family very much, but were sorry to find Mr. Soutbworth laid up with a mutilated haud, the result of too close contact with a buzz saw. Elulalia is the name of the post office at the Junction, It should bave beeu, was meant to be, and would be much prettier if it was called Eulalia. It was intended to be named after a daughter of Mrs. Hernnn, the land lady of the Junction hotel and res taurant. But dear me, we only eat down here to rest, and it's time to be goin' again Aug. 8.

One of the slickest games of ball yet played on the Tionesta grounds was witnessed by a fair-sized crowd on Saturday afternoon last. Tbe game was between the West Hickory Jrs. and tbe Tionesta Jrs., and was inter esting throughout, as the score, 2 to 3, will show. There were a number of excellent plays on both sides, and the keeping of the score down to five runs, all told, shows tbat tbe boys were wide awake, aud "played ball." Tbe battery work of the Warbam brothers for Hickory, aod the Shoemaker brothers for Tionesta, was very evenly balanced and won a good deal of ap plause. It was a league game in min iature.

Scott was last week con fincd to his bed by a re-currence of the Berlnus stomach troublo with which ho was aitlicted last year. Ho Is better again however. An exchange warns farmei-s to bo on their guard against the Canada thistle ex lonninaior wnon lie oners to sell you a bushel of "exterminator" for He's a fraud of the first water. From ; lie Crawford Journal: "It is est! matod that the wool product of Erie coun ty this year is about 50,000 pounds; Mercer county has about 800,000 pounds; Craw ford, 200,000 pounds, and Venango, on the west side of tho river, 150,000 pounds." An unusual amount of counterfeit na tional bank notes and silver coin of all denominations is in circulation iu Phlla dolphin, and will find its way into tho in terior of tho Staio. Detectives say that tho makers of this money" are flooding tho city with circulars indicating how it can be bought. The following clipping has a univorsa! application: "The following gentlemen will bo found In almost every organiza tion: Brother Swellhead, Brother Little- faith, Brother Doolittle, Brother Alltalk, and the brother who paid no dues for the last five months, and who wants to know where all tho money goos to," Clyde Richey, of Wallacevlllc, Venango county, a member of Co, E, Conpertown Guard, was drowned while bathing in the Allegheny river, on Saturday last, at Camp Kensington, where the N. O. P. are in camp. He was 24 years of age, and a single man. Two or three years ago a member of tbe same company was killed by the cars noar Clarendon while return ing from camp. How ninny of you can sing any ot e patriotic song clear through ? How many of you know tho entire words of any sin gle patriotic songT Don't ail speak up and say "Every one of us," for the chances are that there isn't one of you that docs. Just think it over, (lossip was in the company of a party of a dozen or inoro people re cently, and somebody started to sing "The Star Spangled Han nor," tho company joining in. They got through the tirst verse all right, but when they tackled tho second verso thoro was a hult, a good bit of humming of tho tune, and then a bicak down ; a rank break. Thou somoltody else started "Hail Columbia," and that met with the saino fate, and even dear old "America,'' had a bad fall. The (jiicmIIou whs asked " Who sings all of tho words of a patriotic song?" and there was not one of the party w ho could. Gossip has since made It a point to ask people he meets if they know tho cntiro words of such a song, and while many profess such a kuowlcdgc, they invariably fail. This is uot right. Let patriotic songs bo taught in the schools, and tho retentive ynuthlul mind will never forget them. There is not a patriotic Frcnchiuun who can't Mug "The Marsclhiiso" from beginning to end, whilM every English boy knows "God Save the Queen," and it is a part of u tier man's cdunition to learn "Die Wacht am Rhino." We should pay more uU.-ntiou to this subject. (.Gossip, iu Hurrisburg TeUiJiaih.
