bits on Hall Ridge, above Nebraska, last
Wednesday afternoon, routed out three
bears tn one bunch and for a time there
was considerable excitement, the average
hunter becoming excited at Bight of one,
to say nothing of seeing them In droves.
The hunters had with them a small dog
which ran into a clump of brush and in a
moment out came a full grown bear fol
lowed by two about two-thirds grown,
the larger one jumping clear over the
dog. The animals started at full speed
down an old log road, followed by the
men. Five charges of bird shot were sent
after the bears, the only result being to
bring growls from two of them. Tney
finally distanced the hunters and made
their escape in a dense thicket.

DA KIN (J ROBBERY NEAR CLARION.
Morris Snyder, of Fryburg, Shot and
Robbed In Broad Daylight.
A daring robbery was committed yes
terday morning on the publlo road be
tween Fryburg and Clarion, about 5
miles from the latter place. Morris Sny
der, proprietor of the Elseoman Hotel at
Fryburg, was driving to Clarion and
when be reached a lonely spot In tbe road
known as Hahn's bridge be was met by
two men, neither or whom was masked,
who with drawn revolvers demanded his
money. Not responding readily one or
tbe men fired at him, tbe ball entering
the forehead just above tbe eye, render
ing him unconscious. When he regained
consciousness be was lying in the road
and his horse and buggy were a short
distance from him. His pockets had
been rifled and $250 In cash and a check
amounting to about foO were gone. Mr.
Snyder made his way back some distance
to a farm house and the folks there
brought him back to Fryburg. He is In
a critical condition but it la thought be
will live. Tbe men were dressed In
working clothes and he thinks he could
Identify one of them, but tbe other was
an entire stranger to him.
The road on which Snyder was driving
was not Ibe main road, but is often used
as a short-cut. The highwaymen must
have known that be Intended going that
morning and tbe route be wonld likely
take. No clewa have been discovered.
Tlonesta Boy iu Bad Predicament.
Leroy Connor, aged 18 years, and for a
year or more past employed by Livery
man Urey, aud Slgworlh it Ilepler, has
gotten into a serious predicament by forg
ing and negotiating several checks at Oil
City. Connor arrived in the city Mon
day of last week and it seems proceeded
at once to negotiate the checks which be
bad forged. One was cashed by the Mon
arch Clothing Co,, for :0 when be made
a small purchase; another for flO was
cashed by Carton Bros., where tbe youth
bought a four-dollar pair of shoes, receiv
ing $30 in change, and a third was passed
upon M. Snyder f ir $13. The fourth was
drawn for $150 and was turned down by
tbe Oil City Trust Co., where the lad pre
sented it for payment. This check was
drawn in favor of M. C. . Witlings, en
dorsed by the same name, also by "Mr,
(J. Jamieson, from Tlonesta." All the
cashed checks bad been returned to tbe
Oil City banks by tbe Forest County Na
tional bank of Tlonesta upon wbich Insti
tution they were drawn. It was then that
Ibe authorities got after Connor, who was
placed under arrest when he returned
from a drive into the country, having
hired a rig from one of the city livery
men. In bis possession was found tbe.
$150 check wbich the bank bad turned
down, $-4 iu money, two new Buit cases
well filled with new garments, and wear
ing a new outfit of clothing.
The checks were all made out on blanks
of (he Pioneer Creamery Co., formerly
located near Newmansville and long since
gone out of business, two leaves contain
ing three blank checks each having been
abstracted from a book belonging to
Liveryman J. L. Ilepler, in whose em
ploy tbe lad had been for several months
past.
Young Connor is about six feet tall, is
not quite IS years of age, and has tbe ap
pearance and manner of an innocent and
Inoffensive stripling of a boy, and his es
capade comes as a surprise to many in
Tionesta who looked upon him as a boy
of good principles and no bad babits. The
Blizzard says be "talks In a rambling
manner and with the simplicity of a
school child. He does not appear to
realize the seriousness of the crime with
which he is charged, and when asked if
be did not know he would be caught and
punished for forging the checks, replied
he 'supposed be would.' "
At the hearing young Connor was held
for his appearance at court in Franklin
in the sum of $150. Being unable to fur
nish the same be was placed in Jail to
await trial.

and educated In Buffer county, and came
to Forest county in I860, settling at Red

Mr. Hall was an Industrious, energetic

Socially be was a pleasant, companion
able man with whom It was a pleasure to

ERII.
With many friends the Republican
regrets very greatly to learn of the death
of Joseph B. Erb, ofWest Hickory, which
occurred on Saturday evening last at 0:30
o'clock, at Kane, Pa., where he had gone
a short time ago to visit James Mont
gomery, a relative, and at whose borne be
died. Tbe cause was pneumonia, aud bis
illness was or but a few days' duration.
Mr. Erb was aged 85 years, being born,
we believe in Center county, this State,
where he resided meat of bis life. Thirty
years or more ago be came to tbe oil re
gions of this section, and bad been more
or loss connected with that Industry ever
since. Besides bis son, Grant, well
known to the people of tbis community,
and who is now at Bridgeport, 111., he is
survived by another son living in Kan
sas City, and a daughter residing in Salt
Lake City. For (he pnst 18 or 20 years
the deceased bad made bis home at West
Hickory, near which place be was inter
ested In an oil lease. His frequent visits
to Tionesta made him a well known fig
ure here whore he had many friends.
Possessed ot a remarkable memory, and
having been a great reader before bis
sight failed blm, be was a veritable store
house of information, making him a very
Interesting conversationalist, and bis
visits to the Republican office will be
greatly missed. We are without partic
ulars as to funeral arrangements, but
understand the remains will be buried lit
Pine Grove Mills, Center county, beside
those of his wife, who preceded him in
death many years.
