One of tbe effeots of the remarkably
low water of the Allegheny river in tbe
vicinity of Irvioeton baa been to bring to
light a boiler and engine which for many
years baa been at the bottom of tbe river
at tbat point, and It Is puzsllngold timers
to give s theory for its presence. Accord
ing to copper pistes on tbe outfit It was
made at tbe Washington Iron worka, at
Newburgb. N. Y., In 1864. Tbe boiler Is
of 50 or 60 horse power snd tbe engine
about 12 horse power.
First frosts ol tbe season fell Tuesday
and Wednesday nights of Isst week, sod
In many places back from the river con
siderable damage waa done to corn snd
vegetable vines. Sunday night of this
week was perhaps tbe coldest yet, and tbe
frost practically finished wbat waa left
from tbe previous freezings. In most
esses the corn waa sufficiently sdvanoed
to withstand tbe Irosta and tbe ears may
not bave been seriously affected, but the
fodder 1 practically done for. Buck
wheat, In most cases wss about matured,
but the crop Is likely to be less than the
average.
When it Is known thst a killing frost
occurred on June 10 last, and tbat another
freeze that was blasting to crops fell Sept.
10, It will be realized tbat Ibis waa a. very
short summer, there only being ninety
growing days of tbe sesaon says tbe Ti
tuavllle Herald. The records on tbe Tl
tusville Light snd Power company's big
thermometer show tbst on June 10, st 4 s.
oi., It registered 29 degrees, and on Sept.
10 at tbe same hour 31 degrees was re
corded. Tbis wss tbe shortest season,
between killing frosts, known In a great
many years. For quite a long time there
bss not been a bad frost In September
and for two years there was not heavy
frost until late In October thus giving
orops a good chance to mature even
though there we're late springs.

Two Junkmen Arrested.
The following article from tbe Bradford
Star of Tuesday, Sept. 9th, Is of consid
erable local Interest, Contractor John
Reck being well known here as a former
operator, and Karl Kiser being a Forest
county boy:
"Bradford, for some time past bas been
tbe operating field for a gang of bold Junk
thieves and the theft of an 800-foot 24-lm-h
drilling cable, owned by Contractor John
Reck, of East Main street last Sunday
morning culm lusted lu tbe arrest tbis
morning of Theodore Goodmau snd Joe
Lovitz on a charge of laroeny and receiv
ing stolen goods. Tbe arrest was made
by County Detective Jones, assisted by
Officers Cline and Price, after the stolen
cable was found in their junk yard.
"Tbe return of the goods was due en
tirely to tbe cleverness of K, II. Kiser, a
driller In the employ of Mr. Reck. Re
cently the drilling rig was moved from
one location to another on the C. L
Douglass lease near the old mill dam and
tbe big cable was left at tbe first location.
One day last week while cutting brush,
Kiser noticed thst the cable had been cut
Into 100 foot lengths and bad been coiled
up ready for moving away. He imme
diately opened tbe bundles and inserted
slips of paper with his name written up
on them, realizing that If the cable was
carried off, it would be almost impossible
to Identify it unless It was marked, Mr,
Reck was notified of the discovery arid
Saturday nigbt be watched for the com
ing of thieves until 3 o'clock Sunday
morning. Owing to the heavy fog and
tbe latenesB of the hour, Mr. Reck gave It
up and went home to bod. Alter he left,
tbe thieves appeared snd not only made
sway with the mutilated cable but also
cut up a 600 foot cable, which they, no
doubt, intended to call for later.
"The police were notified and, yester
day afternoon, search warrants were got
ten out and every Junk yard in (own was
searched by the police aided by a mem
ber of tbe state constabulary, Tbe search
was fruitless and all of the dealers, in
cluding Goodman, denied all knowledge
of tbe lost cable. This morning County
Detective Jones arrived In the city and
with Mr. Kiser and Officers Cline and
Price made a return trip to Goodman's
place of business. The latter waxed very
Indignant over the fact that a second
search was being made. The searchers
moved several tons of cable which was
coiled up In big piles and, wben the bot
tom was reached, tbeir search was re
warded by the finding of the stolen goods.
"Goodman and hla employee, Lovitz,
were taken Into custody at once and
charged witb larceny and the receiving of
stolen goods. Tbe prisoners were taken
before Judge It ilklns and save bail io the
sum of $:i(K) for their appesrsnce next
Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock."
