decide. The Central District and Print
ing Telegraph company, aa tbe Bell is
known in this section, owns and operates
a system In Tidloute. It baa a franchise,
granted free by the borough quite a good
many yeara ago. Lately promoters of an
independent company, composed of Oil
City men and others, bave been in Ti
dloute and asked for a fraucbise in tbe
streets for the purpose of establishing an
exchange, later to be connected wi'b ibe
lines of the Forest Telephone company
doing business in Tionesta, Hickory and
other places in tbat territory. The town
council has been considering the subject
and at a recent meeting received an ap
plication for tbe franchise. At tbe same
time there came a communication from
the Bell company, advising council to re
quire a goodly sum for permission to use
the streets. It is understood tbat at tbe
next meeting which will be held in De
cember, tbe franchise will be granted
upon the same terms under which tbe
Bell Is operating. Titusville Herald.

Fatal (jiiiiinlng Accident.
I. H. Borland, one of Franklin's prom
inent and well known citizens, met death
In a very pathetic manner on Friday last,
while out bunting a short distance from
the city limits. He left bis home in the
afternoon with bis bunting outfit, telling
bis wife be would go up over the hill for
a little trip, more as a matter of exercise
tban for tbe game he might bring in.
That was tbe last beard or seen of bim

things." One barrel of tbe shot gun bad
been discharged the charge having en
tered tbe leg just below the knee, sever
ing two small arteries and carrying away
the calf of tbe leg. Tbe nature of tbe
wound was such that death from loss of
blood must bave ensued in 30 minutes.

dental death. Isaac Huston Borland, the
