Bin rock, of Green township, talks of pulling up stakes hero and locating either in Oregon or Washington, we understand. James Elliot, of Stewarts Run, reioices over the arrival at his Uoroi c ile, of a Thanksgiving boy, of regu lation weight aud good lungs. Turkeys have come down a perch or two since the 26th, but are agtin looking out a place well up on the roost as Christmas approaches. L. J. Hopkins skipped off to Buffalo the first of the week, and be fore bis return will order a rousing stock of holiday goods Liok out fir the:n.

' ' Marienville narrowly esoaped an other severe scorching the other uight, when an old building near the Hotel Marien wss partially consumed, and only by the hardest kind of fighting was the tire counued to this builui and kept from spreading. "The tree of deepest root is found least willing still tu leave the ground' and this could once have bteu most truly said of chronic pain of any sort But after the lapse of so many ages, a sovereign remedy has been found in Salvation Oil, every provident bouse holder should keep it. . While there has been considerable deer huuting iodulged in by our town sports on the last snow, very little success has attended their efforts. T, F. Ritchey aod Will Hunter succeeded in bagging a fair sized doe one day last week so we are told, not being able to speak from personal knowledge or taste, Hon. J. B. Agnew, who accompa nied the remains of bis life long friend the late Judge Conk, from Wabhingtou to their last resting placo in the ceme tery io Couksburg, has been among Tionesta friends lor a few divs of the past week.

Small, of Nebraska, is confined to his house with an injury which came near causing him the loss of a leg. A few days ago, while earring logs on the little railroad of Collins t Co , his left leg was caught in a jam and quite badly crushed below the knee. He is improving slowly, and it will be several weeks before he is able to follow his usual avocation. The ladies of Tionesta will give a Bazaar, Friday evening, of this week, for the benefit of a public reading room. Fancy and domestic articles will be sold. All who have promised to contribute are requested to send in the articles by Friday at 1 o'clock. Tbe Bazaar will be held at the Read ing R om building, next door to Hop kins & Co.'s store. All are cordially invited to attend. Mr M. F. Catlin bad a floe team horse killed in the woods near Kllett ville, during the heavy storm of Mon day of last week, having been struck by a falling tree. He had, only a few days previous, paid upward of $400 for the horse and its mate. A team belonging to Win. Tobey was also somewhat injured during the storm. but escaped death, although Ins bark wagon was demolished. . A man named Thompson, eap- tured in a trap, which he had set for rouskrats near Hunter Station, perhaps the largest American eagle ever taken in this section or country. Its wings measured lust seven feet from tip to p, and altogether is a monster bird. The screamer is now in the possession f Chas Russell, at his bather shop, ud he will have it "set up" bv a first class taxidermist. It will be a rare necimeo of America's emblematical fowl. Mrs. Elizabeth McCalmont, who has been a resident near tho mouth Stewarts Run, in President towntdiip, Venango county, for upward of bO ear.', died on Saturday morning last, ued about 80 years. She was the widow of tho late Jas. F. McCalmont, whose decease occurred several years ago. Mrs. nicuaimont was a Kiouiy Id lady, very much beloved by all who knew ber, and will be greatly mused by friends aud neighbors generally. Sunt. Kerr will have Iwo good drawing cards for his iustilute this year, in the persons of Col. Copcland, and l'rot. lleadly. the former made himself solid with Forest county au diences on the occasion of his former visit here, while the latter is said to be ust as good, aud brings a national reputation as a platform orator with him. the other attractions promise to be on a par with these, aud there is every reason to anticipate a most sue cessful inslitule this year. Congratulations and best wishes to our frieud Jesse Carson, who relo bratcd Thanksgiving duy in a most sensible way by taking unto himself a wife, iu tbe porsou ot Miss Hoy, daughter of Mr. II. E. Smith. Mr. Carson owns a fine farm ou the Tylers burg road, two miles from town, anr has lately erected very substantial aud commodious buildings thereon, and bemg so nicely fixed to enjoy t lie com panioiiship ol a loving and lovable helpmate, the wonder has been that he put oil the blissful nccasiou as long as be did. The Refi'm.ican joins the happy couple's many friends in best wishes for a long and prosperous life. Speaking of the two uegroes uow about to be tried in Ivittauning fur thefts committed there on tbe 5th of November, mentioned io our lust issue, the Derrick says a description of the articles stolen from the residence of E T. Howes was sent to the sheriff with a request to forward them to the police here. Yesterday chief of poMca Fry reeeieved a letter from Sheriff Fiscus, of Kittanuing, stating that the arti cles answered the description perfectly, but that he would have to retain them until court convenes next Mouday. He requested Mr. Howes to go down and identify the articles and moke an information against the men. Mr. Howes and the chief will go ti Kit tanning for this purpose to-day. Tbe circumstantial evidence so far obtained seems to point to the two negroes as the authors of the burglaries at Oleau, Salamanca, Tidioute, Hickory, Tiones ta, as well as in this city. The Third Medal Coutest. Tho third Domorost Medal contest which took p'aee In the Presbyterian Church, Friday evening, was ono of tho most suo- cossful yet given.. The class was composed of eight young girls, who displayed won derful declamatory powers, although the oldest did not exceed fifteen years of age. Great praiso is due Mrs. Seigel, who had the class in training and to whom these young girls owe much of their great suc cess. The Judges, Messrs. Teed, Allan and Stiles, of West Hickory, after hearing the speuking, and weighing all the points in each, final ly decided to award the prize to No. 0, Miss Mary Joyce. She spoko the piece entitled, "Prohibition, the hope of our Country." The exercises were in terspersed with songs and choruses ren derod by a band of children of the Loyal Legion, conducted by Mrs. "'. F. Ritchey, to whom too much praise cannot be given These songs were received with rapturous applause by tlie audience and the marching of the children was beyond praisd. The male quartette composed of Messrs, Ritchey, Clark, Nason and Biggins, was not the least attraction of the evening, These contests are given under tho au spices of the W. C. T.

The locomotives cost f ijO.OOO.OOO, tho cars (800,000,000, making tho approxi mate costof the rollingstc.ck $1, 500,000,000. Each year a freight ongine hauls 35,000 tons, and a passenger engine pulls 60,000 passengers. These railways employ 713, 000 persons, nearly all inon, who provide lit ing for nearly 8,000,0(10 peoplo, or about one-twentieth of the whole popula tion The jury in tho caso of Goorgo Robin son, iudictod for arson, brought in a ver dict Saturday night of guilty as indicted. The details In this case have heretofore been given. About 1 o'clock, on the morning of October 22d last, Henry 11. Winaus and family, of Cherrytree town ship, were awakened by a noise and fouud their house and barn on lire. Tho flames were extinguished at the house, but tho baru wss destroyed.

Blizzard. An exchaugo truly says that printing, either for glory or gratitude, may bo a time-honored custom, but it Is done in direct opposition to the financial element of the business. Not excepting the phy sician or druggist, there is no line of trade in which so much is asked and nothing but thanks is paid in return. Tho average citizen acts as if a newspaper and a print ing ollice cost but little money, and that running expenses are insignificant ; that proprietors should be willing to do free printing from their most expensive in a terial and stock for tho glory of having their Imprint attachod to the work. As a rule, the publisher and printer is the Hrst man in tho community selected to furnish without pay, tho necessary advertising mutter for every conceivable charity or enterprise, and if he hints at getting half price for the work ho is considered a vory mean citizen. Kueli eases are of daily oc currence. There seems to be no limit to the uumbi-r of people who ask for favors they would not grant if cases were re versed. The wealthiest ask more than the humblest citizen. While printers are generally charitable and enterprising, yet the custom of taxing thoir business to swell contributions which the individual should give is radically wrong. Rulph Hill tho Hermit. Tbe Hill Placo away up on Spring Creek, about H miles above Hallton is often re ferred to by tho hunters who chase the game In that fur off spot in the wilderness. It was a spot well known also many years ago, for there are men still living who in their youth paid many a visit to that local ity to call upon Ralph Hill, the white hair ed hermit, who lived in a hut on the prem ises far removed from the haunts of men, Tradition recites that away bock in the earlier part of the century this man, Ralph Hill, who has long since gone to his re. ward, cut his way through tho wilderness and located on Hie eastern slops of Spring Creek, many miles from neighbors, built liiin a home and cleared up a larin. No one knows when ho first went there but lie was found by hunters and tu them he said he came from Routlieru New York In the neighborhood of Elmiia, and it has been assortod that the great governor of tho Empire State, David B. Hill, Is a rela tive of the hermit, and It seems plausible, for both came from the same neighbor hood. Tho subject of this sketch cleared up a big farm, the land being In Highland, Spring ('reck and Millstone townships in Elk county and Jcnks township In Forest county. Ho lived all alone, with no com panions save his trusty dogs. His hut, too, was small and with tho outside world he never sought intercourse, and why he lod such a strnngc, wierd life ho never In timated to any one. It was somehow learned, however, that in his youth he lavished Ms affections upon a companion of tho fair sex and that slio finally broke faith with him, cast him off, and he losing conlldence in humanity sought the wilds of the forests In which to brood over his sorrows all alone. Many years ago some of bis relatives hearing of his whereabouts camo in to seo him and after much per suasion got lit tu to go back to his old home to spend the close of Ills life. The cause of his hermitage none may ever fully know, but tho broad auros now grown up to briars testify to the occupan cy of Ralph Hill, the Spring Creek her mit. Elk Democrat. School Keports.
