actly why the pesky thing didu't find

F. J. Henderson, Chairman of

charge of the Committee's work till

While the drillers were spud
ding" at the new well of Proper &
Co., on Siggins run last Friday,. L.
W. White of East Hickory was
thrown several feet into the air by

of his head struck an anvil, render
ing him unconscious for some time.
He was severely, though not seriously,
injured, our informant said.
At the graduating exercises of
of CI arinn Normal last week the fol
lowing Forest county students passed
in the classes indicated: Elmer E.
Stitzinger, Senior; Misses May
Himes, Marieuville; Kilty Joyce,

Tioocsta, Junior ; Sam T. Carson,
sub-Junior. Miss Mary Rumberger

A Sheffield correspondent of the
Kane Republican states that D. P.
Miller and son of Brookstou, were
severely shocked by a stroke of light
ning which killed tbe team behind
which they were riding home, during
tbe storm of last Wednesday after
noon. Mr. Miller and the boy were
rendered unconscious for some time,
but recovered and are all right now.
David's friends in this section will be
glad to bear that his injuries are not
serious and that he escaped so luck
ily. By a decision of the Supreme
Court, handed down recntly, when a
veteran, who is very poor, dies, bis
family may bury him and tbe county
shall stand tbe expenses up to (50.
The custom has beeu iu some coun
ties to bury such unfortunates by
contract, let to the lowest bidder, tbe
same as in cases of ordinary paupers.
The Supreme Court says that tbe law
intended that the old soldiers should
have a decent burial, and that the
county should pay a moderate ex
pense. Tiooesta invites the surrounding
country to come and help ber cele
brate the Fourth. Tbe program as
published last week will be carried
out to tbe letter, and all prizes will
be awarded and paid to tbe winners
without fail, so the committee in
charge declare to us. Rialto Park
will be ablaze with enthusiasm during
the day, and judging from the
amount of traiuiog and speeding
that has taken place in tbe past two
weeks, some interesting races may
be expected. Don't fail to come to
Tionesta on tbe Fourth. You will
have a good time.
We have frequently been asked
the question as to whether any change
had been made in the game laws by
the last legisalture. There was but
one change made, that relating to
dynamiting fish. For this offense a
fine of (50 is imposed, besides im
prisonment in the county jail. All
other game bills were defeated. Tbe
bili to prohibit the killing of deer for
five years passed the Honse but was
defeated in the Senate. One of the
most difficult things to gbt through the
average legislature is a sensible
game law, the trouble being that those
who know tbe least about game are
the ones who think they know the
most.
Death of Mrs. Llzsle RuUcrflcld.
Tbe death of Mrs. Butterfield oc
curred at the borne of her nephew,
William Klinestiver, at Sheffield,
Pa., on the evening of June 25, 181)5.
For several months she bad been
staying there and had improved so
much in health that she bad expected
to return to ber home in Tionesta in
a few weeks. Her last illness was
of very short duration. On Monday
afternoon she was in her usual health
and had taken quite a long walk with
Mrs. Klinestiver's small children, re
tiring in the evening feeling as well
as usual. Not arising at her usual
time the next morning they found her
apparently sleeping peacefully, but
later on when they tried to awake
ber she could not pe aroused. A
physician was soon called who pro
nounced it hemorrhage of the brain.
She remained in this condition till
the following evening wben she
passed away without a stiuggle.
Mrs. Butterfield was tbe daughter
of Jacob and Dorothea Wenk, aud
was born in Germany, Nov. 26, 1846,
baviog been brought to this country
by ber parents when she was about
six months of age. Excepting a few
years when her husband, the late G.
G. Butterfield, was engaged in busi
ness in Livermore, Pa., ber whole
lifd was spent in Tionesta, where she
had won many warm friends who
deeply sympathized with her in ber
severe affliction of a few years ago,
when the death of her husband
and mother, along with ill health,
made it necessary for ber to be taken
to tbe hospital for treatment.
She was very early in life con
firmed a member in the German Re
formed church, of which she remain
ed a most consistent devoted member
till death. During the later years of
her active life, not having regular
services in ber own church, she be
came an earnest worker in the Pres
byterian church of this place. Here
she was a roost faithful attendant at
all the services, and an aclive worker
in the various branches of christian
work, especially in the missionary so
ciety, being cloBely associated in this
Willi tbe late Mrs. Helen b. Thomas.
She was always a most diligent stu
dent of the Bible and a firm believer
la the plain teachings of the Word,
ber life bearing witness to ber pro
fession. The funeral look place from
the home of her brother, J. E. Wenk,
on last Friday, June 28, the services
being conducted by Rev. Mr. McAo
inch. And her remains were laid to
rest in Riverside Cemetery, bv the
side of those of her husband, father
and mother.
The Erie Conference of the M.
E. church, which will meet in Erie,
Thursday, September 11th, will be
an important session. Bishop Vin
cent will preside. The election of
ministerial and lay delegates to
the general conference at Cleveland
in May next year will take place.
Tbe question of dispensing with the
time limits in pastoral opointmeDts
will be considered.
An exchange tells of some boys
who were asked the other day to de
fine "editor." Here are some of tbe
definitions: "An editor is a man who
handles words;" "au editor makes
bis living out of the English lan
guage; "an editor is somebody who
does not do anything himself, but
wben somebody else does be goes and
tolls other people all about it ;" "an
editor is a man who has the industry
of a beaver, tbe instinct of a bee and
the patience of an ass."
Tbe borough school board met
on Wednesday evening last and
agreod upon Prof. Robert N. Spears,
of Oil City, as principal of the
schools. Mr. Spears comes highly
recommended and will undoubtedly
give good satisfaction to the patrons
of tbe school. The salary list re
maius the same as last year, with the
exception of the third room, Miss
I'aups salary having been raised
from (40 to (45. The tax levy for
tbe ensuing year is the same as last,
twenty mills, all told.
A law known as the Harvy act
was passed by tbe recent legislature
with tbe object of promoting ibe use
of broad tires ou the heavy wagons.
It provides that those owoiog and
using draft wagons with tires not less
than four inches in width for hauling
loads of not less thau 2,000 pounds
shall receive a rebate of one-fourth
of their assessed highway tax, tbe re
bate not to exceed hvo days labor on
tbe roads iu any one year. This is
only a modest step iu the mainte
nance of good roads, but nevertheless
one to be commended.
W. A. Hilands of the borough,
and F. J. Henderson of East Hick
ory, leave to-morrow evening for
Denver, Colorado. "Davey" goes to
joiu Sum Clark, who has secured an
interest in a number of promising
mining claims, and will help to de
velope them. While Frank thinks
that a litttle of the Colorado climate
will be of benefit to bis health.
Both gentlemen may conclude to
make that tbeir home for a term nf
years, just as happens to strike tbeir
fancy. Iu any case we joiu their
friends in best wishes for the future.
Tbe "family tree" at tbe Siggins
family reunion, an account of which
is given in this issue, was a beautiful
work of art, executed io water colors
by Miss Justioa Siggins, aud was
greatly admired by all. It repre
sents tbe descendants of the Siggius
family from 1793 down (o 18f5. In
this wonderful tree of art is embraced
the history of - the race. Tbe design
shows the tree to be planted in
French, Scotch, Irish and American
soil. The trunk represents Wm. aud
Mary Siggins, of Sligo county, Ire
land, and tbeir son John and his wife
Sarab, who came to America in 17113,
while the branches represent their
children down to the fifth generation.
In all there are 375 names inscribed
upon (be tree.
. Whlttekln's Map of Forest Comity.
Undoubtedly the fluent map, in all
respects, ever issued of Forest county,
aud about as complete an odb as could
well be put up, is the one just gotleo
out and now ready for delivery by
Engineer F. F. Whitisbin Xt
several times larger than anything
ever before attempted, and goes ioto
aeiaus witn greater care aud accu
racy than is usually devoted to such
publications. Every stream, every
road find Averv niana nf lan1 nf or
acres and upward is delineated with
greatest skill and care, giving tbe
pi torui or repuieu owners name in
all cases where such could be ob
tained. Mr. Whittpltin has iuril
over nearly every acre of ground in
ms l or more years work in this
county, and there are very few cor
ners which he cannot go to in the
dark. His thorough knowledge of
tho "lay of tho land" bas stood bim
well in hand iu the work of getting
up a map that lays over them all.

Oil Voles.
Drilling on the Stewart well, Irwin
tract, Tiibbs run, has begun.
Mr. Wolcott expects to begin drilling
on his latest venture on the Vockroth
farm this week.
Si j gins St Co. struck a five-barrel pro
ducer on the Wilkins farm, Fleming
Hill, Harmony township, the latter part
of last week.
Hopkins fe Co. are starting a well on
the Thomas Wilson farm, same vicinltv,
and expect to finish within two weeks.
The U. S. Oil Co., composed mostly of
Tionesta people are putting down a well
on Patrick Dunovan's farm, Stewarts
Kun. A well sunk in that locality away
back in tho sixties, and known as the
United States No. 2, is said to have been
a good one, but the low price of oil at
that time did not justify the further de
velopment of the territory. Nothing
short of a 1,000 barrel spouter was recog
nized in those days.
The Derrick' monthly oil report says :
June proved a record breaker in the his
tory of petroleum developments. Never
was there witnessed suoh an array of new
wells completed, and never was the
strife to secure new territory more eager.
Fourteen hundred and twenty-live wells
were completed during the past thirty
days in the Pennsylvania and Buckeye
oil fields, and 2."7 of the entire number
were dry or non-producers of oil. At
the close of tho month the work under
way in all sections of Ohio, Indiana,
Pennsylvania, etc., summed np 2,401
rigs and drilling wells. Indiana is the
only field that records a decline in op
erations. During the month of June, 811
wells were completed in the oil fields of
New York, Peunsylvenia, West Virginia
and southeastern Ohio; 127 of them were
destitute of oil in paying quantities,
while the total daily output for the last
day of the month is placed at 0,877 bar
rels. Compared with May this is an in
crease of 163 completed wells, 2,030 bar
rels new production and 63 dry holes. At
the close of the month there were 564 rigs
and 011 drilling wells under way, as
compared with 67 rigs aud 829 drilling
wells at the close of May, a net gain of 79
in new operations.
