-Smith S. Neil!, one of Oil City's best
known citizens and for ten years chief of
it's poliece force, died suddenly at his
home on Monday morning last. The de
ceased was born at Neillsburg, (Perry),
this county, Dec. 27. 1845. In 1H75 Mr.
Nelll was made chief of polieco of Oil
City. During his services as such he was
engaged in many thrilling encounters
and repeatedly proved himself a man of
undaunted courage and integrity. It was
lie who arrested Charles St. Charles, who
was sent from this county to the peniten
tiary for being implicated In the robbing
oftheMav. Park Co. bank of this
place twenty years ago.
Tho iras company's main lino was
parted out in the township last Friday by
the falling of a tree, and a consequent
muffing out ofthe supply eusucd here
abouts in a iiflV. In a few minutes the
flow of gas was resumed. The only nam.
ago resulting from the inomontary shut
oir occurred at theM.E.church.where the
fire in tho beater had evidontly not all
been extinguished, and when the flow
resumed an explosion occurred which
left tho heater in a rather embarrassing
attitude, which bad not besn relioved on
Sunday and the services were held In the
Presbyterian church. Eight or ten Uoi.

According to the oil report ofthe Oil
Clly Derrick, Fohruary shows a heavy

except that of rig building. An Increase
in this line Is a pretty good Indication for
an active spring campaign. The market
is now three cents above the quotation
that was ruling when the Sand Fork pool
. opened up. In the Iirail fold and Ve
nango districts there is a general disposi
tion to check drilling operations and it
will require something better than the
present market to bring about any great
revival of activity. There Is nothing sen
sational during the pres. ut month In tho
Pennsylvania oil tileld, however SOU new
wells have been completed.

Editor Shick, of the Marienville Ex
press, came near losing his printing plant
by lire last Saturday night. Very short
ly alter midnight his sanctum was dis
covered to be enveloped in flames, and it
was only by the promptest efforts that
a conlla). ration, which would have taken a
la go portion of the business houses of
the town, was averted. As it was the Ex
tinguishers wero aliie, by good manage
ment, to confine the fire to the one room.
Mr. Shick's loss on statiouory, printing
material and personal effects will font up
In the neighborhood of JUKI, which Is cov
ered by Insurance. One of the most ser
ious ot bis losses was the destruction of
the files of his papvr which cannot be re
placed. It Is thought the fire originated
from a swinging gas Jet which had bo
come detached from the wall aud drop,
ped down on his desk on which was piled
a batch of exchanges and other papers.
The Express will not reach its subscrib
ers this week but Mr. Shick expects to be
out on time as usual next week.

An attempt was made to burglarize the
dwelling of S. J. Campbell Monday night
of this week. The maiauder was discov
ered by Joe Landers, who lives next door
to Mr. Campbell, and who happened to
be awake and plainly saw the fellow try
the door and windowa. He let drive In
the direction of the would-be thief with
bis revolver, but having had little prac
tice with firearms since the closing ofthe
hunting soadon, Joe's aim was a little of!
and the fellow escaped. Tracks were
plainly visible iu tho snow next morn
ing, but furnished no clue to the identity
of tho sneak.

Important Oil Suit Tried Last W eek.
A suit of more than oidinary import
ance was concluded in our courts i
week, the plaint ill's being G. G. an J J. H.
Snowden.ofOil City, and C. I. Hoydrick
of Franklin, who were represented by
Judge John J. Henderson and Judge
Christopher Hoydrick. The defendauts
were E. Pequignot and A. J. Camahan
of this county, and Samuel Y. ltamage of
Oil Citv. Under binding instructions
from the court the Jury reudored a ver
diet for the plaintiffs which carrios with
it two leases at Trunkty villo this county,
producing 8.1 barrels or oil per day and,
about $24,(00, damages for tho dotcution
ol tho property during the past year,
The contention of the plaintiffs was that
they had purchased a three-quarters
working Interest iu tho property from E
Penulirnot and A. J. Camahan for th
sum of $15,000, two-thirds to be paid lu
cash and tho remainder on a credit of six
months or ono year. Thoy paid Jl.OoO
down when the contract was made and
weie .iven ten days in which to examino
tl.e title to tho property. During the ten
davs the value of tho property was iu
creased by a well which had been drilled
into the sand and made a good showing,
and tho owners wero offored more money
than they had agreed to sell to the plain
tiffs for and tbey sought to mako a new
contract, which was refused by the plain
tiffs, who commenced suit to gain pos
session. Within a week the defendants
sold their interest to 8. Y. Kamagn, of
Oil City, at an advance of f.,000. Notice
of the writ of ejectment was given in the
presence or the new purchaser. Since
that time tho property has produced about
flo.OOO worth of oil, for which the plain
tills wero given a verdict, less about
$'.1,000 expenses incurred by the dofend
auts. The defendants wore granted a rule to
show cause why a new trial should not
bo granted.

(IIAll(.tl) WITH KICK'S MURDER.
Henry Ilorihert aud Sic Mong Lodged
In Jail on a Charge of killing
William User.
Henry Borchert of Marienville and
Augustus (alias Sic.) Mong, of Iron City,
in Howe township, Forest co.jity, were
lodged iu jail at Clarion, Pa., on Thurs
day last charged with the murder of Wil
liam K iser, near Elk City, Clarion county.
The arrests were msde by Detective Jack
Crihbs and Sheriff Bird Thompson, the
inner making the infoimation charging
murder, but beyond the assurance that
ic evidence against the accused is very
strong, will not divulge any information
as to its natuie.
It is understood that a "squeeler" iu
the penitentiary gave up a story which
led to these arrests.
At the same time Charles Murphy fr.,
or Ryrointowo, this county, was also
lodged in jail by these officers, on a
barge of having furnished the dynamite
hich was used to blow up a wall in the
ail by which two prisoners Thomas and
Gordon wero onabled to make their es
cape. Charles Murphy Sr., father or the
risoner, was confined in the jail with
Thomas and Gordon, but failed to make
bis escape, it was thought on account or
uot being abl to crawl out through as
mall a hole as the others. He Is uow
serving a term in ti e penitentiary.
The murder or William Kiser was one
flhe most atrocious in the history of
Clarion county. The deceased wasa man
f about C9 years of age, and lived alone
near Elk City. He was reputed to keep
considerable money in the house and his
murder wss committed for the purpose
f robbery. On Sunday morning, July 30,
1HII0, Emanuel Kiser, a young man, and a
relative or the deceased, passing the bouse
early in the morning noticed the uoor was
open, and looked in and found the dead
body or William Kiser on the floor with
tho brains beaten out and about the room
were evidences of a struggle. Kiser was
bound hand aud foot, but one baud was
free. Flesh bad heeu gouged from vari
ous parts or his body with a knife, evi
dently Tor the purposes of torturing blm
t compel him to confess where his money
was hidden. The oue band being free led
to the theory that while the men were
torturing him he had torn the mask from
the race or one and that bis murder fol
lowed that he might not give evidence
gainst them.
The men, at least two In number, and
probably three, had taken a rail from the
fence, used it as a battering ram and
forced the door from its hinges and rushed
to the bed or Kiser slid overpowered him
bofore he could defend himself. The
murdered man expected to be visited by
burglars and all kinds nt weapons were
close at his hand, but be had nn chance to
use any of them. The bed was in a small
room, lu wuicu was also a saie. ine
murderers had bound him while in the
bed and carried him to the larger room,
where they proceeded with theireffortsto
compel him to tell them where his money
was secured.
After the murder 'he thieves were evi
dently panic stricken or alarmed by some
unusual noise, as they left the place with.
out securing any money, bo f'aras known
In au iii-ido pocket in Ihecoatof thedead
man, which was hanging near the side of
his bed, was found a roll ol bank notes
amounting to $73, and In the mattress ot
the bed was found sewed several hundred
dollars. In a nail keg and other recepta-
clos about his small house were found
several hundred dollars in gold. It was
rumored that ho had a large amount of
money concealed in a belt which he wore
around his waist, under his clothing,
which was stolen by the thieves, but it
is not believed that this was correct.
Relatives or the murdered man offered
a reward or $1,000 for the arrest and con
vlclion ofthe murderers, and two persons
who were able to prove an alibi, were ar
rested and released. Detective Cribbs
and his partner have been at work on tho
case since the murder, and the evidence
they will present at Ibe bearing will be
awaited with interest by the residents of
this and adjoining counties where the
facts in the case are so familiar.
