G. & W. CAMPBELL —Drilling was discontinued at the Crowe well last Tuesday evening. The fourth sand found in it was not very thick, not more than five or six feet and contained but little oil, not enough to make it worth pumping. The fact that the fourth sand is so very light speaks well for the territory. A third sand oil field always holds out best. This well was located forty rods east of a 22i degree line passing through No. 1 well, and is 108 rods west of a 22£ degree line passing through the Simcox & Myers well. This makes rather a bad showing lor the degree line business, and as none of the new wells that have been started will be down for at least three months, people who are anxious to know in which direction the belt or pool extends will have to possess their souls in patience. —Carpets, a fine stock, at low prices, at Heck & Paterson's. —The question of the duty of the authorities of a borough in removing ice from pavements and crossings has just been considered by the Supreme Court in the case of Kline against the borough of Mauch Chunk. Kline stepped on snow made slippery by trav el while crossing a public throughfare, and falling sustained injuries for which a jury awarded him SSOO damages. The borough took the case to the Supreme Court, which holds that bor oughs cannot prevent general slippery ness of the streets and crossings by snow and ice, but that it can prevent accumulations of the same which ren der pedestrianism dangerous. As it did not appear that Kline bad fallen on a ridge of snow, the Court held that the verdict should have been in favor of the borough. —Hats, Caps and Gents' furnishing goods, cheap, at J. F. T. Stehle's. Terrible Accident. Mr. Martin Eieler, gardener, of this place met with a terrible accident last Thursday morning, which may yet prove fatul. That morning Mr. Wil liam Rbilander Sr., with the aid of his son Henry, and Mr. Isaih Balpb, un dertook to remove an old fashioned log pump from the well just back of his blacksmith shop. This well is twenty-seven feet deep, and was dug and the pump put in in 1854. The pump stock is in three pieces and is very heavy, particularly the lower piece which is about eighteen feet in length and which has stood in from 13 to 15 feet of water for nearly twenty eight years To take it out they used a windlass, which bad one wooden and one iron handle and placed two iron bars across the hole, to which to fasten the logs while slipping the rope down for a fresh hold. They had taken the upper and middle pieces of the pump stock out and were about taking out the lower piece, when Mr. Eisler happened to notice them at work aad came up from his residence to lend a helping hand. The rope was fastened to the lower piece and it had been raised so that the end of it was some feet above ground—Mr. Eisler being on one side of the windlass and Mr. Balpb on the other—when the wooden handle in Mr. Eisler's hand broke. This jarred the other handle from Mr. Balph's hand and the heavy log commenced descending and the windlass revolving very rapidly. One of the handles of the windlass struck Mr. Eisler's left arm, breaking it in two places and throwing him in a stooping posture under the revolving windlass where he received several terrible blows on the back of the head from the bandies of the windlass, before falliug across the iron bars. Had it not been for the bars be wonld have fallen headlong into the well. He was carried home and medical aid summoned, when it was found that his skull is fractured in several places, and that his life was in danger. Up to yesterday he was still alive, but if he survives, bo will be a cripple for many months, perhaps for life. Mr. Eisler's family consists of himself, wife and six small children. He is in very . bad shape financially, and tbi3 calami ty has come to him at the only season ol the year, during wbich he makes any money. A subscription is being taken up in aid of this distressed family. The members of the church to which they belong, the German Lutheran, are subscribing liberally, and it is hoped thatevervbody who can, will give them something, as they will likely need much more than they will get, for the necessaries of life, long before Mr. Eisler becomes able to do any thing toward their support.

The party of six, which left here last week for Oregon, has been beard from frequently. At last accounts Kansas city had been reached. At that point they report that all the members of the company were in good health. BILLY WILLIAMS. —Ladies' and Gents' Gossamer Gum Coats, cheap, at Heck & Patterson's. A Stroke at llie Standard. TITUSYILLE, PA., April 14. A I number of so-called special telegrams j from this city, purporting to give ac counts of the reorganization of the [ Union Oil Company, were more re markable for latk of correctness than anything else. That the company has reorganized is true. Among those who have embarked in the new scheme are H. L. Taylor, John Satterfield and Thos. S McFarland, all of the firm of 11. L. Taylor & Co., Managers of the Tidewater Pipe Line; F. B. Gowen, President of the Reading Railroad Company; Charles Parish, Johu Scott, S. Burke and Amasa Stone, all heavy capitalists and largely interested in railroads. The prime object of the cor poration is to compete with the Stand ard Oil Company, and if possible break the death-grip it has for several years held on the oil interest not only of Western Pennsylvania but of the en tire country. While its operations may not, perhaps, be conducted on the same extensive scale as the Standard's it will be no mean opponent and will speedily make itself felt—with the Union refineries, the Tidewater Pipe Lines and the railroad backing which is represented by the four gentlemen last named in the list of incorporators, there is no reason why successful com petition cannot be entered into. In case the old plan of lowering the price of oil is adopted by the. Standard, it is probable the enlarged and strengthen ed Union will be able to stand it as long as tbe older company. As is known the Union Oil Com pany hitherto done business in Phila delphia and in this city. Under the new management it is understood that the principal scenes of operation will be in Western Pennsylvania, with Titusville as a center. Sew refineries will be built, and smaller ones bought. Even now agents are at work negotiat ing for several of the numerous pipe lines with which the oil regions are crossed and recrossed, and it is said they have every prospect of success. Mr. Thomas S. McFarland sails from New York to Liverpool to-morrow, in order to secure loans for the new enter prise. and also to sell some of the stock which as yet remains unsubscribed. In the reorganization the original $4,000,000 stock of the Union Oil Co., was raised to something like $7,500,- 000, of which not quite all was taken. The assistance of English capitalists will be secured, and the establishment of a foreign agency effected before the return of the representative. Cfipinre of a Thief In Zelie« nople. In the Allegheny Mail, of last Thursday, we find the following : Anton Molitor, a carpenter, who resides at No. 119 Juniata street, was robbed of $220 last week. Mrs. Ball is the housekeeper of Molitor. Her grand-3on, Andrew Ball, has been boarding at the house for some time. He occupied the same room with Molitor. The latter kept his money in a bureau drawer in his sleeping apart ment. On last Thursday morning young Ball informed him that he was going to the country for a short time and left the house. Molitor having occasion to use some money, went to the drawer where he kept his savings and discovered that it was gone. He immediately suspected Bali of being the thief, and Chief of Police Long was notified, The matter was placed in the hands of Detective Wills, who traced the young thief to Zelienople. A warrant was sent to Constable Weigel, of that place, who arrested Ball and brought him to this city last evening. He was given a hearing be fore Mayor Peterson this morning aud pleaded guilty to the charge of larceny. He was held in the sum of S3OO bail for trial at court. Burning of Wise's Dance Hall. The dance hall, erected by Mr. Leonard Wise, on his lot, back of the county jail, seven years ago, was burn ed to the ground last Monday night, or rather early Tuesday morning. The hose companies were promptly on hand shortly after the alarm was given, but owing to the bursting of the hose, were prevented from saving the build ing. They saved Mr. Wise's residence, however. The fire originated from an egg hatching arrangement that Mr. Wise's son and Harry Donaghy had started in the basement of the building that day. One of the lamps connected with the incubator is supposed to have exploded, and the flames must have reached a ten gallon can, filled with oil, and have exploded it, previous to tbe fire being noticed, for when Mr. Wise attempted to put it out by throw ing water from bis pump on it; the more water he threw on it the more it seemed to spread. His son had been out to see that the incubator was working all right, about an hour before The building was 35x85 feet, entirely of frame and cost Mr. Wise over $1,600. His insurance policy expired ten days ago, and as bis policy on his house will expire shortly he thought he would wait till then and have the two buildings insured together. He places his loss at, at least $1,500. Big Blaze at Titusville. TITUSVILLE, April 14.—Afire occur red in this city this morning which for extent of damage surpasses any mis fortune that has ever befallen the place. The blaze started in the Parchall House and from thence spread to the Parchall Opera House, which was connected with it. The firemen labor ed hard to put out the blaze, or at best to confine it to the hotel and opera house, but were unsuccessful, the flames enveloping the magnificent Brunswick Hotel and completely de stroying it. The fire is still raging, but there are indications that it has course. The Parchall House was oue of tho best hotel properties in the oil regions, and was run in con nection with the large opera house. The Brunswick Hotel was built by the torpedo millionaire, Roberts who died about two years ago. He had fitted it up in the most gorgeous style after the manner of the pa'atial hotels of New York. It was not a suocess, and some time ago was clqsed for lack of patron age. Cashier Ruth Arrested tor Em bezzlement. WASHINGTON, Pa., April 14. Cashier Ruth's cefulcation will proba bly amount to $75,000 or $30,000, but the investigation has not l een com pleted. In onj instance the bank had a check o' $14,000 with the Pennsyl vania Bank of Pittubuigh, but Ruth had checked out $12,0 )0. He has been placed under arrett for embezzle ment on the oath of one of his bonds men. Court House Notes. SLITS BROUGHT. James Edgar Moore vs. M. A. Wil ' son, summons in trespass.

NORWICH, Conn., April 12.—The noble gift of John F. Slater, of this town, of $1,000,000 for the education of the colored race, is characteristic of the man. His design in making offer to the New York Legislature, where a bill incorporating Rutherford B. Hayes, Chief Justice Waite, Governor Colquitt, Rev. Phillip Brooks and others as trustees of the John F. Slater fund, was to-day introduced, and was in his own words, "To uplift the lately emancipated population of the Southern States and their posterity by confer ring on them the blessing of a Chris tian education." He further adds: "I am encouraged to the execution of this charitable foundation of a long cherish ed purpose by the wisdom and success that have marked the conduct of the Peabody educational fund in a field of operation not remote from that con templated by this trust. The gener al object which I desire to have exclu sively pursued is the uplifting of the lately emancipated population of the Southern States and their posterity by conferring on them the blessings of a Christian education. The disabilities formerly suffered by this people and their singular patience and fidelity in the great crisis of the Nation, establish a just claim on the sympathy and good will of humane and patriotic men. I cannot but feel compassion due, in view of their prevailing ignorance, which exists because of no fault of their own.' Mr. Slater further suggests that the education of teachers for the colored race may be the wisest purpose to which the fund can be put. If, after 33 years, three-quarters of the trustees shall for any reason agree there Is no further use for the fund in the form of an institute, Slater authorizes them to apply the capital to the establishment of foundations subsidiary to those ex isting in institutions of higher educa tion, so as to make them more freely accessible to poor colored students. Under the present institution of the fund he especially wishes neither prin cipal nor income to be expended in land or buildings for any other purpose than that of a safe and productive in vestment for income. Tbe Petroleum Outlook. The outlook for better prices for crude petroleum in the near future is encouraging, notwithstanding tbe new developments in the Sheffield and But ler oil fields. It is conceded on all hands that the Richburgh field has reached the highest production which can be reasonably expected and that the extent of the territory in that sec tion is clearly defined. The Bradford field is gradually declining in produc tion and the new strikes in other ter ritory do not more than make up the decline in the yield of old wells. The total oil production is now placed at 78,000 barrels per day, and the indica tions are, from every standpoint, that by the first of August the yield will decline to 65,000 barrels per day. From tbe best iuformed sources we learn that the demand during the year 1882, will average 65,000 barrels of crude per day. For the eight months endiag with February 28th, 1882, the value of the petroleum exported is of ficially reported to be $34,453,551, an increase of over $9,000,000 compared the exports of the same period for 1881. This demonstrates, in a measure, the increase ot the foreign demand and consumption. The home consumption is rapidly increasing, especially in the Southern and Western States. It is reasonable to believe that with the declining production and increased consumption, it will not be long until the large stocks in the oil region wiil be drawn upon heavily, crude oil will theu command $2.00 per barrel. This is a rosy picture but we believe it is justified by the actual condition and tendency of the petroleum trade.— Venango Citizen. —WANTED —To buy 2,000 cords of chestnut oak bark Call and get prices <fec., at Itoessing's tannery. aprl 94t.

Mr. Longfellow's poem on "Mad River, in the White Mountains'' posses ses peculiar interest as being the last oue from his pen, and the final proof of it was revised by him only a day or two before his last brief illness. The opening chapters of Mr. Thuuas Hardv's new serial, ''Two on a Tower," are given", and promise a story of unusual interest. The Atlantic has secured the sole right of serial publication of this story, both in America and England. John Fiske contributes an ar ticle on ' The Arrival of Man in Europe, which supplements his popular scientific treaties on "Europe before the Arrival of Man," in the April number. H. H. writes a capital char acter sketch, entitled "Aunty Lane," and Ed ward G. Mason gives an entertaining history of "Old Fort Chartres," one of the earlv French forts in Illiuois, some traces of which vet remained, and in the vicinity of which many dcceudants of the old French settlers are still living. Miss Phelp's serial, "Doctor Zay," and Mr. Bishop's story, "The House of a Merchant Prince," are both continued, and Eugene \V. Hilgard concludes his paper on "Progress in Agriculture by Education and Government Aid," in which he makes some criticisms 011 the con-luct of the Department of Agriculture, and suggests needed improve ments in it. The third chapter in the valuable series of "Studies in the South" treats of meth ods of emigration, life in colonies, the fortunes of the negroes, fertilizers, cotton, the cypres swamps, and the Texas climate. Miss Eliza l>eth Robins contributes a curious article on the '•Evolution of Magic," and J. Laurence Laugh liu gives a clear and instructive account of the recwit "French Panic." Poems by Edith M. Thomas and Mary W. Plummer, a review of "Renan's Marcus Aurelius," the Contributor*' Club, and Rooks of the Month, are the other contents of (he number, A. brief obituary no tice of Mr. Longfellow refers to the fact that the very first number of the Atlantic contained his tribute to Florence Nightingale, and that the present number of the magazine is privil eged to present to its readers his last poein.
