Tbe statement of tbe Oil City Trust

requirements of tbe Ranking commis
sioner, under date of November 1, seta a
new blgb record for banks and trust com
panies In Northwestern Pennsylvsnia.
Deposits are over $4, 257,000. 00, while
assets exceed 15,280,000 00 These figures
do not Inolude $111)1,000,00 of trust de
posits. Tbe company enjoya the distinc
tion of being tbe only financial institution
in tbis vicinity having a capital and sur
plus exceeding $1,000,000.00. This
amount represents tbe actual cash In
vested by the stockholders, aud as it ap
propriates 25 per cent, of tbe deposit lia

One of tbe largest timber deals in
years in this section was consummated
recently when tbe Nusbaum Chemical
Company and the Custer City Chemical
company, of McKean county, took over
tbe ownership of all the saw timber and
chemical wood on Ibe Quintuple Oil
Company's land, comprising 3,700 acres
In all. The other contracting party was
George Reldy, who recently acquired the
rights. Reservations have been mads of
118 seres or tbe land on Little Q nuiuple
near tbe city limits, on wblcb lites leas
than six inches in diameter will be pro
tected. The sale meana much to tbe two
purchasing companies as it will give tbem
enough additional timber to insure many
more years of manufacture. They have
been given eight years to remove the
same. Bradford Era.
A young man wbo was employed far
one day on tbe Coleman railroad bridge
job, and who gave bis address as Oil City,
took a rather unceremonioua departure
from tbe Hotel Weaver Monday morning
and It is suspected that be may know
something or tbe disappearance or two
revolvers bciouirg to other members cf
tbe bridge crew and a coat owned by A.
J. Hoilinen, one or the clerks. Tbe man
pleaded illness and did not go to work
that morning, and some of bis actions
about the hotel appeared suspicious.
Later In the morning clerk John Cotter
found in one or the upper balls a suit
case packed with a choice collection or
clothing, as well as a pocket book and
money, owned by different members of
tbe bridge crew. While tbe clerks were
trying to locate how tbe suit case came to
be there the suspected young man took
fright and "beat it" up Elm street at a
hot pace, and be may be going yet. No
attempt waa made to follow bim at the
tioie, as the two revolvers and coat were
not missed until later.
Leonard Cropp, Horace Walters and
Ed. Collins, all of Cropp Hill, killed three
bear cubs, weighing over 100 pounds
each, Monday forenoon. They also put
several loads of coarre shot iuto tbe old
mother bear, but she got into a ledge of
rocks from which the hunters could not
dislodge ber. The tracks of tbe bears
were discovered In the snow by Cropp,
and the others Joined in the chase, which
resulted in the cupture after trailing the
game less than hair a mile, and only
about 80 rods from the Cropp Hill road,
This bear killing business right under
our noses, so to speak, Is getting ratber
monotonous, and unless tbe hunters are
a little more considerate In tbe slaughter
tbe next legislature may feel constrained
to place a limit on how many one man
shall kill -say not more than five or fix
In any one day. P. S. Since the above
was put in type we learn that the same
hunters went out Tuesday morning sud
killed the old bear. They bad barricaded
ber under the rocks on leaving the place
Monday and she could not escape. Alter
shooting ber they were obliged to dyna
mite tbe rocks away In order to get tbe
body out of tbe bole. She weighed about
300 pounds.
The P.R.R. track was blocked several
boura early Monday morning by an acci
dent that happened a short distance be
low the station at tbia place. Shortly af
ter i o'clock Extra southbound engines
Nos. 2704 and 3302, both attached to
fright, came together derailing tbe tank
ot tbe former and damaging the latter.
Both had been cut off from tbe train for
water and 2704 was returning when It ran
Into 3302. No one was Injured.
In renewing bla subscription our old
friend, Ed. Klabbalz, a former well re
membered oltizen of our county, writes:
Although a resident of Erie county for
few yeara I look, forward for tbe Forest
county papers and they seem Just like a
letter from home. There are a number
of Forest county boys here and all seem
to be doing well, lor Ibis is a bustling

Winter bit this latitude with a sud
denness last Sunday that almost knocked
the props from under us, causing tbe
shivers to dance up and down tbe aplnal
column of tbe average deulezon of these
parts to an extent seldom equaled by tbe
sternest January blizzard. Sunday night
was a bowler, and Monday morning tbe
landscape with Its two to three Inch
covering ol snow, bad a look of drear
that was sad to contemplate, com lug so
soon upon the heels or a week ol most
gorgeous fall weather. Much damage was
wrought in this section to telephone and
telegraph lines, many or which were put
ont or commission for tbe day, but on Ibe
whole tbe country is slandiug tbe sudden
transition quite well. Besides tbe snow
fall was so timed as to give the deer
hunters a fine opening on the first day of
the season. But In point or suffering
from the big storm we are not In it with
the slates bordering on the great Lakes,
where trains are snow-bound and drifts
ten feet deep, entirely covering passenger
coaches, are reported. Northern Ohio
seems to have gotten the worst dose.
