While tho rains of the past fow days
have been very annoying to the farmer
whe had his hay and grain crops only
partly harvested, the lumberman who
has bad his wares tied up on low water
lor several weeks Is not worrying to any
groat extent. It is estimated that $40,000
to $50,000 worth of stuff will be floated to
the Pittsburg market on the little lise in
the river. And so what is one man's mis
fortune Is another's good luck.
The flood of a few weeks ago created
no small amount of damage to the stone
culvert spanning Tubbs run at its mouth
and is requiring the attontion of the
street commissioner. The real damage
was not apparent at first, a hole having
washed out at the lower side by the
swirl of tho large body of wateras it was
forced through the arch. With each suc
ceeding freshet there has beon more or
less undermining of the masonry going
on, and it will require considerable work
to stop this sort ot thing.

A now potato pest, said to be worse
than the striped bug, Is reported from
some sections of the State. For wart of
a bettor name It ia called the "potato
louse." The insect is very small, so
small as to bo hardly visible to tho naked
eyo, and covers tho potato leaves so that
scarcely any of the leaf can be seen. They
oat the leaf and in a few days it will with

to get rid of them, but without success.

Joe Thomas are still watched by the Clar

vegetarians how Joe Thgnias, the colored

minds Tuosday afternoon as we passed.
Joe understands his buisness farming

Lanson Bros, bave given a contract
for placing In their mill a full-fledged,
up to date roller flour mill ; also a roller
buckwheat flour mill, and expect to have
it running by Sept. 1st. This will make
theirs one of tho finest mills in this sec
tion and will'undoubtedly bring much
of the busines to this place that has hith
erto gone elsewhere. It's a good thing
and we hope to see their business boom.
The new gas engine proves to be all that
it was represented and the leed mill is
running every day, aud your feed will
be ground while you wait. All the best
brands of flour are kept constantly on
hand for sale or exchange.

The Brookville Republican denies
with emphasis the report that there is a
crow hatchery within the borders of that
enterprising town. The item has gone
the rounds of the press in all parts of the

stock farm in the world could have done.

Thore has of late boen considerable pet
ty tbioving going on In our vicinity, or
what looks like the same, both on the
east and the west side ol the river. Eat
ables and chickens, with possibly an at
tempt at something larger, seem to be
the objects sought after. Clue night re
cently two brass pumps, one a liquor'
pump, the other a grindings pump, were
stolen from the West Hickory tannery.
A wagon and horses had beon driven in
where the pumps were kept when not in
use and tho pumps loaded on and hauled

It is rumored that the Weft Hickory
tannery may be absorbed by a trust. It
appears from Raid rumors that the afore
said trust had until August 1st to decide
whether it will absorborno. By the way,
the West Hickory tannery an upper
leather tannery Is one ot the finest plants
of Its class In tho country. The leather
it turns out is said to be of quite a super
ior character. This latter fact is due to
several reasons. Que is tne superior
water used, and among the others, and
not the least at all, is the skill and knowl
edge with which it is managed.

A subscriber, who is employed in the
construction of the new railroad bridge
spanning the Allegheny river at Mos
grovc, a short distance from Kittanuing,
writes that a man named Jesse Robinson
fell from the bridge, a distance of 50 feet,
killing himself instantly. He was work
ing aloft assisting in putting up a hoist
ing crane and was leaning over the bridge
driving a bolt with one band and with
the other hanging on, when he slipped
and fell, striking the false work bolow
and breaking his neck, and smashing
his face almost to a jolly. While the un
dertakers were preparing his body for
shipment to his home a message came
from there summoning him home and
stating that his brother had boen killed
in Ohio.
While working at the same place a
plank fell several feet striking J. B. Mil
ton on the forehead cutting him very bad
ly. He was sent to the hospital, and at
about tbe same hour John Miller stepped
through a hole in the bridge and fell to
the river 80 feet below, lighting in about
18 inches of water and dislocating his hip
and smashing his knee. He was also
sent to the West Penn hospital fortreat
ment. There seems to be a peculiar fatality
about the place.
