A killing frost, tbe first damaging one
of the season, fell Wednesday night last,
when much or the corn and buckwheat
crop throughout this section was serious
ly atfected, especially was this the case
with the late crops. In some iuatances
both crops were sufficiently advanced as
not to be seriously injured. Tbe corn
crop never looked more promising than
this ypar, but Ibe yield will be greatly
curtailed on account of the frerze. Cold
nights bsve prevailed all week,- In fact
there has been real freezing back from
tbe streams where fogs do not protect but
all the freezible crops were taken with
the firt, and subsequent frosts could do
little more da nage.

Edward Dunkle received a letter yes
terday from Mrs. Dunkle, who Is visiting
her father in Nogbo, Sweden. Mrs.
Dunkle stated tbat she bad no idea as to
when she csn sail for America, for owing
to the mines in the North Sea it Is so un
safe that King Gustsv baa given out the
word that anyone leaving tbe country
does so at bis own risk. She said tbat
just before writing tbe letter tbat she bad'
beard that a ship carrying 300 passengers
bad struck a miue and been blown up.
At the beginning of be war she stated
that an average of 4,500 Russian refugees
from Germany passed through Ivogho
dally for several days. They were with
out shoes, coats, or hats and were half
starved. Tbe Swedish people en
deavored to feed tbetn at first but realized
shortly that this must be stopped in or
der to protect themselves as the crops in
that country have been an entire failure
this year. Flour is selling at 40 cents a
pound which would mean about 11 cents
In American money, Mrs. Dunkle ex
pected to return to Oil City about tbe last
of August but ber return now is very In
definite. Mail Is being carried at about
the normrl schedule at the present time,

Forest Lusher Crippled For Life.
A most distressing accident happened
st Titusville last Thursday afternoon, by
which a Tionesta young man was ren
dered a cripple for life. Forest Lusher,
son of Mr. snd Mrs. Howard Lusher, had
bis left leg orushed under s trolley car in
that city at about 3:30 in the afternoon of
the Day stated. He bad gone with many
oibera from this vicinity to take in the
Fair, snd was on bis way to tbe fair
grounds and had reached a point Just west
or the city limits, when car No. 4 or the
Titusville street car line running west
came along. Tbe car was in charge or
William West, motorman, and Conductor
Frank Witberop, while a trailer tbat was
attached ahead ol the car was In charge of
Conductor George N. Hess, Just as tbe
cars bad reached a point along tbe
macadam road, above Schwartz's lane,
where tbe sidewalk Is located on a slight
elevation, Forest ran out onto tbe road
way with the Intention tifjumoing aboard
tbe trailer, which was au open car. He
failed in bis effort and being struck by
tho car, waa knocked down. According
to spectators, tbe young man fell in such
a manner as to leave bis left leg project
ing scross the right band rail and the
wheels ran over him before the car could
be stopped, though tbe power was shut
off and tbe brakes atrongly applied.
Dootors were summoned from tbe fair
grounds, Drs, J. C. Logan of Titusville
and A. W. Goodwin or Oil City respond
ing to a call. Tbey were promptly on
tbe scene and directed that the injured
man be taken to tbe city hospital. At the
Institution it waa discovered that tbe left

putation was imperative, and it was
taken off between tbe knee aud ankle.

and pain, butbassinoe been doing well un
der the trying oircu instances. He la aged
22 yeais and is a young man of strong
constitution, bsvlng followed drilling
with bis father since he was 10 years ol
sge. His parents were promptly noti
fied or tbeir son's misfortune and started
at once to bis bedside, and remained with

severalweeks before the young man is
able leave the hospital.
