200 acre piece formerly owned by
Clark & Foster. A rig is building
on the property of the Fox estate, at
Foxburg. Altogether there is con
siderable activity in that field, al
though tbe extreme dryness has a ten
dency to make operators cautions.
J. II. Shoemaker who is assist
ing Artist Doutt in painting the walls
and ceilings of the Court House, fell
from a ladder to the floor, a distance
of about twelve feet last Friday, and
was considerably bruised about the
bead and shoulders. In falling his
head struck the corner of a dry-goods
box, cutting the lobe of the left ear
completely through, necessitating the
putting in of five stitches to bold it
in place. Aside from a little of "that
tired feeling" Jim is as good as new
again.

The Tidioute News has this item
of the burning of a building that was
famous in the palmy days of the oil
region, along in the early 70ties :
Last Monday afternoon the old Ven
ture House at Fagundus occupied by
Milt Carnaban as a residence, caught
fire and was totally destroyed. Mr.
Carnaban got out moat of his goods,
but in a damaged condition. Tbe
Venture House was one of the re
maining land-marks of tbe palmy
days of Fagundus, being built by
Capt. Flanagan and run by bim for
years as an hotel.
Last Thursday evening while
Thomas Mays' children were at play
in their door yard below the depot,
west side, bis little five-year-old
daughter was struck just below tbe
left eye by a bullet. The stroke was
glancing one, otherwise it might
have proved more serious. As it
was tbe ball only penetrated to the
bone. Dr. Morrow dressed tbe
wound, and the child is now nearly
well again. Where tbe shot came
from is not known, but it should be a
warning to people to be more careful
of the use of fire arms in the borough.
One of the latest things in medi
cal practice is tbe cure of hernia
without the U6e of the knife. It con
sists of bypodermio injections twice a
week of tbe "hernia fluid" around
tbe inner ring of the rupture, which
stimulates the tissues. This is kept
up until the growth of new tissue
completely fills the break in the ab
dominal wall, and requires from four
to seven weeks' time. Tbe operation
is comparatively painless and is
claimed to be obsolutely sure. Dr.
J. B. Biggins, who has charge of the
Hernia Institute here has four or five
patients undergoing treatment at this
time.
M. N. Zellers, of Marienville
was in Clarion Monday arranging for
a rare exhibition at the coming
Fair in the shape of a collec
tion of denizens of the forests and
wild and rooky glens of this and
neighboring counties. Tbe museum
will be exhibited under tent aud a
small admission fee will be charged.
Among the collection will be found
two black bears, one prairie wolf, one
wild cat, one monkey, two alligators,
each seven feet in length ; one snake
14 feet long, ten foxes, one round tail
beaver, from a northern clime, which
has to be kept constantly on ice,
eagles, hawks, cat owls, with ears two
inches long, rattlesnakes, etc., etc.
Visitors to tbe fair will find this one
of the most interesting exhibitions
upon the ground and all should come
prepared to sea it. Democrat.
MoCullougb A., son of Edward
L. and Mollie Dewoody, of Fox
creek, Green twp., died on Sabbath
afternoon last, after an illness of 18
hours, of cholera infantum. Tbe
child was aged but six months, yet
was a bright, cheery little fellow, to
whom the entire household bad be
come wonderfully attached. . The fu
neral was held yesterday, the inter
ment taking place at Riverside cem
etery, and was very largely attended
by sympathizing friends of the fami
ly, upward of twenty rigs from Ne
braska being in the processioo. Tbe
strickeu parents have the sincere
sympathy of all their many friends in
this affliction.
Dr. J. W. Morrow on last Friday
performed successfully tbe very deli
cate operation of removing a large
tumor from the nose of J. B. Wyant.
Mr. W. first noticed it when about 12
years of age after receiving an injury
to the nose. Using bis own language,
"at first it appeared like a little ker
nel." It was always worse after a
cold, though it did not increase much
in size till the last two years. It was
so large the last five or six months
that when be took cold it would fill
the nose so be could not breathe, and
caused a disagreeable feeling in bis
head. He is very much gratified at
it's removal and says there is quite
an improvement in bis head.
A. W. Grove bas applied for a
patent upon a new product of his
fertile brain, which will undoubtedly
have a large sale wherever any drill
ing is done. Ab. calls it a "Bit-jack
and holder," and it is to be used, as
its name indicates, in holding and
turning a bit while being dressed, do
ing away with the heavy lifting ne
cessary under tbe old way. A sam
ple machine has been made by
Messrs. Scowden & Clark and is now
at their shop. The sample has been
shown to a number of tool-dressers
and drillers and all pronounce it one
of the best things ever invented for
use on a drilling well. It is Ab's
purpose to manufacture them in Tio
nesta, which will certainly be a ben
efit to tbe town.

The Cattle Suffer.
The Derrick says : "Spliutio fever,
known some time ago as Texas fever,
has made its appearaoce among the
cattle in this vicinity and threatens
to become emidemio. The afflicted
animals become weak, refuse to eat,
tbe horns become cold at the roots
and mucus drops from the nostrils.
Unless the cow receives prompt treat
I ment death follows within three or
five days. Several cases are reported
from tbe vicinity of Elk City and
Franklin, while Veterinary Surgeon
Snyder, of this city, has 15 cases of
tbe disease under treatment. Au
thorities are divided as to whether
tbe milk from the afflicted cow is in
jurious to the health of tbe human
being, but as tbe milk becomes tbick
and ropy it is just as well for buyers
of milk to know that the milk tbat
they are using comes from healthy
animals. It is said that tbe present
drouth has caused tbe outbreak of tbe
disease. Tbe scanty herbage in the
pasture field causes tbe cattle to eat
leaves and weeds as well as grass,
and this, coupled with tbe insufficient
supply of water, in tbe majority of
the pastuse fields, has been too much
for the constitution of the average
cow." We have beard of no com
plaints of this nature from any of
our people, but it might be well to
keep a lookout for the disease amoog
the cattle.

TWO MORE BIU FIRES.
The Mills of Hammond, Crosby A
Co., at McCray's, and Camp
bell, Rltz Co., on Sal
mon Creek, De
strojed.
On Wednesday eveniug of last
week, about six o'clock, tbe large
saw mill of Hammond, Crosby & Co.,
located about a mile from McCray's
station, tbree miles from Marienville,
was destroyed by fire, together with
the valuable machinery and over
3,000,000 feet of sawed lumber. The
fire is supposed to have caught from
a spark from tbe slab pit, and every
thing about tbe premises being as dry
as tinder the flames were soon beyond
control, although tbe men worked
with a will to save the property. We
are without particulars as to amount
of lose, or as to whether or not tbere
was any insurance on the property,
but suppose the loss will reach far up
into tbe thousands of dollars. Tbe
Company still has large business in
terests in that locality, aud will like
ly resume operations soon as tbe
plant can be replaced.
CAMPBELL, RITZ fc COMPANY.
The elegant lumbering plant of
this firm, located about five miles
from Marienville, on Salmon creek,
was entirely consumed by fire on Fri
day ranroing last. They had a very
complete saw mill in all particulars,
and their daily output of lumber
averaged about 40,000 feet per day.
Under the same roof was a finely
equipped planning mill. About the
mill were piled between 3,000,000
and 4,000,000 feet of lumber; only a
small portion of this was saved.
Several thousand shingles were also
consumed. We understand tbere
was not a dollar of insurance on tbe
property, thus making the loss, which
must reach close to $40,000, a total
one. We learn that the firm is al
ready engaged iu preparations to re
build tbeir plant.
Mr. E. F. Eddy, who owns a shin
gle mill two miles below the above
plant, is also a very heavy looser by
tbe fire. He ships his output over the
Campbell, Ritz & Co. switch, and
had 1,200,000 sbiogles hauled aud
piled there ready for shipment. These
were all consumed by tbe fire. This
loss is also total, Mr. Eddy having
no insurance on tbe property.
Copelaud-Copeland Wedding.
A wedding of two Stewart Run
young people took place at Salaman
ca, N. Y., on Thursday, Aug. 2, the
contracting parties being Miss Cora,
daughter of Ruben Copeland, and
Wm. Copeland, son of Azro Cople-
land, all of Stewarts Run. The
young people ret u rood home after
the ceremony and are housekeeping
in their owu home on one of the
leases where the groom is employed.
The groom is one of the most re
markable persons we have ever met.
He is blicd iu fact was boru blind
yet has sole charge of three leases,
bis employes boiog Bovee & Co,
Duncan A Irwin and Siggins &
Helm. Tbere are 20 ells and 4
boilers to look after, yet bis employ
ers say they never had a lease kept
in such perfect order as under his
eare. He works up a derrick, hand
ling the elevators with the rapidity
of one able to see, or will take an
engine apart, repair it and put it to
gether as well as a skilled mechanic
in fact does any and all work about
tbe lease, and an amount of work in
the running of tbe three leases that
but few men accomplish, who have
the use of eye-sight. If there is a more
remarkable case of work accomplish
ed by the sense of touch we have
never seeu it. Pleasantville Record.
