This latter clause may not be so poetical
as tho first, but it's a mighty sight tho
truer of the two.
Kex Wheeler, one oi toe twiu ous of
Hon. N. P. Wheeler of Endeavor, met
with a painful accident last Fridry by
stepping on a rusty nail which passed en
tireiy through his foot. With genuine
pluck he pulled the nail out and walked
to the house. Dr. W. G. Morrow was
called and dressed the wound and no 111
effects are apparent.
With the price ot oil climbing higher
and higher the face of the producer be
comes pleasanter and ploasautor, whilo
the greatest activity in the oil region i s
noticeable on all sides. There is a be-
liofthat the inarKot will reach the 'l
mark before it stops,. but even at the
present price there's nice money in the
business to the man with a little produc
tion. -There's a little pointer in this item
that can be discovered without much
floundering about: An action to recov
er $10,000 damages has been instituted
against Clearfield township, Butler coun
ty, by Margaret C. Brownfield. The
plaintiff was driving along one of the
township roads last February, when the
horse and sleigh fell over a ten-foot en
barkmont, which was not protected by a
guard rail, as the law requires.

creditably fill this important position.
Curtis Bean met with an accident
early Monday morning last which de
prived him of a part of the two middle
fingers of his right hand. Ho was feed
ing the "bog" at the Wheeler A Dusen
bury mill, at Endeavor, wbon his band
was caught In the machinery and so bad
ly Injured that the fiugers bad to be am
putated just below the middle joint. The
"hog" is a sort of grinder that chews up
edgings, etc., so as to make 'thom fit for
fuol in the mill. He came here shortly
after the accident and Dr. Bowman made
tho necessary surgical repairs.
An epldomio of typhoid fover has
broken out at Hall town, Howe township,
and 1c is said no less than ten cases, In
a more or loss serious stage, are undor
the doctor's care. The cause has not
yet been located, and the neighborhood is
considerably excited as a natural conse-
fluoneo. Claringtou, which was threat
ened with another outbreak of this much
dreaded disease, is comparatively free
from it now, and the citizens believe
the worst is over. Mrs. Calvin Work,
living at the mouth of Maple Cieek, is
seriously ill with the fever, her's being
the only case now In the vicinity of Clar-
ington.
-Charlie, the little son of Mr. and Mrs.
Chas. S. Kirchartz, who are residing at
Reynoldsville, Jefferson comity, mot
with a severe accldont on the 2d in'l.
While playing with a boy aged about 12
years they found a torpedo such as are
used on railroad tracks. The older boy
told Charlie to hit it with a hatchet.whicli
ho promptly did. It seems the explo
sive was filled with gloss, and when it
"went off' the little fellows entire body,
so to sneak, was filled with the glass par
ticles, the most serious effects being in
the face. It is safd the boy had fully
three hundred distinct cuts or wounds on
him. A gash two and a half inches in
depth was cnt in his loft side above the
heart. Three physicians worked with
the injured lad several hours before they
felt safe in pronouncing him out of dan-
ger,but t is thought he will recover with
out leaving any serious effects. His
escape from death seems liko a miraclo.
-Daniei C. Huddleson, of Jeannette,
Pa., enlisted as a private in Co. I, Tenth
regiment, and with that now famous or
ganization went through the Philippine
campaign, "Dannie" is well remembor
ed by many of our people, having lived
here when a mere child, and is the son
of tho late James Huddleson, a veteran
of tho civil war. He recently returned
with his regiment and for a few days past
has been visiting bis friends and relatives
in this section. Ho is in good health and
splendid spirits, and views his experi
ence as a soldier in a choorful mood,
complained none of the suffering which
has been so much talked about In that
far-off country. He says they had plenty
to eat except when the commissionary
wagons wore unable to keep up with the
march, wlion thoy Hyed well on the for
age of that fertile country. Dannie is
now 21 years of ago, and would not take
a fortune for his experience as a soldier
in the Philippines. He brought with him
many relics and mementoes of his trav
ols. Last Wednesday evening about sup
per time two strangers drove into town
in a single rig at breakneck speed, the
one holding the other in the buggy, who
had more the appearance of a corpse than
au animate being. They stopped in front
Of Heath A Killmer "a drug store, when it
was noticed that one of the men was
bleeding from the band terribly. He was
taken up stairs to Dr. Dunn's office, who
proceeded to dress him up, first getting
tho flow of blood Btaunched. It appears
thoy had been out "having a time," and
in somo manner ono of the men had
'struck" a bottlo well but tiot wisely, in
ceusoqueuce of which ho had cut a deep
gash iu the fleshy part of the right hand
near the thumb, severing an artery. Iu
this condition they drove down from
West Hickory, having been unable to
find a physician at home there, and by
the time they got hore the fellow was
about as bloodless as ho could woll got
and remain with his friends hero on earth.
After a night and a day spent here in re
cuperating ho was able to be taken to bis
home in Tidioute, where both were from.
They gave their names as Uarry Hewitt
and Wm. Rosechrist, the latter being the
one injnred.

Ono of the pleasant fraternal society
ovents of the season occurred last Friday
evening, when five new members were
initiated into Forest Lodge, No. 184, An
cient Order or United Workmen, of Tio
nesta. Some time ago a few of the mem
bers of the Oil City lodge paid a visit to
tin brethren of this rilace, and at that
time proinisod to bring a degree team up
whenever tho lodge hero could muster
two or three candidates for initiation.
Accordingly word was sent them, and on
Friday evening last a i-arty consisting ot
W. II. First, W. H. Ferguson, A. H.
Crum, W. J. Lewis, John Boyer, John
Russel, James Blausser, John A. Crum
and A. W. Sipps drove overland, bring
ing their paraphernalia wit tbem, and
in splendid style put tho new members
through the initatory perfo; mance.
There was a splendid turnout of the
membership, the largest for a number of
years, and tne visiting brethren were
greeted in royal style. The exemplifica
tion of the secret work by the visiting
team was a revelation not only to the
candidates but to the old members as
well, and will undoubtedly prove a ben
efit and stimulous in the acquisition of
new blood in the order here. A rising
vote of thanks was given to the,teatn for
their kindness iu coming so far, and the
splendid manner iu which the Initiations
were conducted. The work occupied the
greater poriiou of two hours in its com
pletion, and after a few speeches by the
visitors, who were profuse in thoir con,
l ratulations on the growth of the lodge,
and fraternal greetings all around, the
entire body repaired to Hotol Agnew,
where the genial landlord, Charlie Weav
er, had prepared a most elegant spread,
to which full justice was done by the
now hungry Workmen.
Supper ended, cigars and short social
sessions completed a meeting full t f in
terest, pleasure and lasting benefit to tho
order in general and Forest Lodge in
particular. A little after midnight the
Oil City "boys" again boarded their spa
cious carryall, and the four-in-hand
pranced off at a lively pace for the return
trip to the Hub.

That Oil City FI-.H Wardeu Case.
The Derrick gives the sequel to the ar
rest last week of Fish Warden Nellis, for
dynamiting fish at Henry's Bend, as fol
lows:
At a hearing before Alderman J. A. F.
Bovard last night William Nellis, of this
city, charged with dynamiting fish in the
Allegheny riverat Henry's Bend on the
night of August 20, was bound over in
tho sum of $200 for bis appearance at
court and three of bis witnesses wore
bound in the sum of $100 for their appeal -
anceatthat time. Harry McVeigh, or
the soutli side, was the principal witness
for the prosecution. His testimony was
to the effect that he had seen the defend
ant and the tlm e witnesses come past tho
boal house in a flat .oat, fill some cans
and then pass on up the riyer. Ho fol
lowed, heard remarks that indicated
that some member of the party had
dropped a dynamite or some other ex
plosive cartridge overboard and be had
heard an explosion lollowed by remarks
from tho party indicating their disap
pointment that the shot had killed no
fish. Nellis himself and the three wit
nesses swore positively that no explosives
had boon used by aoy member of the
boat party but It was brought out in the
evidence that they had fish spears on
boaid. This Is taken as an explanation
as to why two of the witnesses decided to
absent themselves from the trial last
Friday. They were afraid of being im
plicated iu the fish spearing. Alter the
pleas of the attorneys, MuMill for the de
fense, and Parker for the prosecution, the
alderma" decided to held the defendant
jmd his witnesses in bonds for their ap
pearance at court.
