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

inson's grove, on the east side of Vioe
St., and just back of Mr. Fredrikson's

pose. It is expected to coutioue the

according to circumstances. Every

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.

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

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. Such a game deserves a de
tailed score, vihich is herewith given:

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

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
