The hanging of Mike Holka in Frank lin has aroused some talk of what would be done here should Thomas Divilbiss be convicted of murder in the first degree. This is a possibility, although his attorney will make a hard tight to prevent it. However, in event of a hanging taking place here it would doubtless be done out of doors, as the jail corridors are not large enough to allow a scaffold to be orected inside the jail. An enclosure would per haps be erected to keop out the curious. From the story of the murder brought out at the hearing a first-degree verdict will doubtless be more than a possibility. Divilbiss, who Is now in jail does not seem greatly worried over his plight, although be appears to chafe some at bis confinement, as he was used to an out-of-doors life. Warren Times.

In noting the tire at theGrandin lum bering plant at Eagle Rock the Rkpubli can gave a large share of the credit to the Oil City fire department for saving what property was rescued from the flames. A correspondent calls our attention to the fact that this was not wholly correct, aud says in regard to it: "Your account gives the firemen all the credit of putting the tire under control. Of course they did very good service after they got there and got their machine to working, but the fire was under control by the lime they got around. Xow, the credit belongs to the crew aud outside assistance from the im mediate neighborhood. The firemen did not arrive until the boarding house was out of danger aud the mill and store were reduced to a level with the ground. If you will make a correction in your next issue it will be very satisfactory to all concerned. The reason I know, I worked In the mill and was there from the start of the fire to the finish."

Kightlinger Held Fur Attempting: to Kill His Wile-Woman is Able to Appear Against Him. As a result of a family quarrel a mun named Friend Burvel Klghtlinger lan guishes In the county jail awaiting trial on the charge of shooting his wife. The accused man is aged about 30 years and about a year ago was married to Cora May Brown. The couple had come re cently to the borne of George W. Strain, who resides on what is known as the old Wiles farm, on the road leading from Fa- gundus to Neilltown, and not far from what is known as "Poverty Hill," the man being employed by Strain as a farm hand and woodsman, while bis wife as sisted with the household work. Klght linger, It seems, was unreasonably Jeal ous of bis wife, and quarreled almost con tinuously, which had become so annoy ing to Strain and his family that on Fri day eveuing be bad determined upou the discharge of both Klghtlinger and his wife the next day. That night Kightling- er disappeared, and itseoms had gone to Tidioute, near where he was reared and had made bis home almost continuously, aud procured a double-barreled shotgun. Returning some time in the night he had seort ted himself in a patch of woods in tne rear or the strain house, ana wuen bis wife appeared In the back yard, some time after 8 o'clock In the morning, she was twice fired upon from the woods with a shot gun, the contents of the first shot striking her In the face near the left eye, and the second striking her on the right shoulder while she turned to run away. Some of the pellets also struck her on the right baud and wrist as she Involuntarily threw up ber arm to ward otf the charge from the first shot. She says she saw her husband as he rose to lire at her, but he did not speak. She thought he must have been about 20 feet away, but the distance was evidently greater than that, judging from the way the shot scattered. Without stopping. to see the effect of the shooting Klghtlinger started in the direc tion of West Hickory, reaching there shortly after 10 o'clock, and leaving the gun with the statiou agent with directions to send it to Tidioute. By this time Georgo Strain and William Proctor ar rived, having pursued themau from their home, and told him they Intended to take him to Tionesta. Klghtlinger offered no resistence and before the train started Sheriff Stroup was advised by telephoue aud met the party at Ihe station here and took the prisoner in charge. Information charging Klghtlinger with aggravated assault aud assault with intent to kill, wits made by G. V. Strain and the prisoner was brought before Justice D, W, Clark, where he pleaded "not guilty," and was remanded to jail under flOuObail for further hearing, or until his wife should be able to appear against him. This she was able to do on Monday at one o'clock, when she told her story of the all's ir, which was substantially as above related, and the man was bound over to court, bail being fixed at $1000. At the hearing when asked tf he had committed the deed Klghtliuger made no denial, but stated that his wifo had been a traitor to him. Mrs. Klghtlinger is aged 27 years, of slight stature aud tather delicate in ap pearance. She states that her husband has been very abusive to her since their marriage, often beating and ill treating her. The womau'a woundsare not likely to prove serious, though it was a very close call for her, one pellet striklngclose to her left eye, grazing the temple aud nipping the top of the eir. Klghtlinger is short of stature but stout and rugged. He does not seem much disturbed over the alfair, his greatest o n cern being his aversion to being locked "P. Tho Local Oil Field.
