—Trading in lands in Cherry Grove
bas"had no parallel since 1865. Lot
635, which was owned by Cadwalla-
II. Johuston and Vandergrift,
was divided into five aerc lots, and
sold at from SIOOO down to SSOO per
acre, according to location, and a fourth
rovalty. Murphy sold to McCalmont
Oil "Co., seventy acres on Gl9,atslooo
per acre fee, and this has all been sab
leaded at S3OO per acre, and half the
oil royalty. This gives some idea of
how speculation has run there. All
told, nearly a million dollars have
been squandered or deposited in Cher
ry Grove since the opening of the
Mystery, for lands and leases, to say
nothing of original purchases.
—The bnrning well on lot 657,
Cherry Grove district Warren county,
belonging to the Anenor Oil Company,
was extinguished list Friday-wefck.
Mr. Vick Gretlcr, of Bradford, did the
business. He is an ingenious man asd
the inventor of the oil saver. He in
vented a novel gun about six inches
long and placed it against the casing
cap. The heat burned out a wooden
plug and exploded the powder and the
projectile knocked off the casing head.
Then the burning oil went up in one
stream. An elbow to which was at
tached several lead pipes was then
swung into position and dropped into
the casing. The oil was tnus carried
off in different directions and the flames
were extinguished for want of fuel.
Gretler bad no contract for the job, but
wiH no doubt be well paid by the com
pany. The well burned ten days, and
the fire is said to have destroyed at
least $20,000 worth of oil,

On Friday the 30th ult. at about 11
o'clock A. M., Mr. Miller went up
stairs and got change for a bill, but
when he went again for change, about
I o'cTock, his money or the greater
part of !t was gone. He, at first,
claimed that he bad lost $3(500, but
discovering that some SSOO in gold
and some silver that was lying loose
in the drawer was not taken he
reduced his loss to $2300. -Mr. M.

—The Sewickly murder was cleared
up a few days ago by the confession of
Martin Weinberger, the man who
travelled with Guitfreund from Wex
ford to Sewickly. Soon after passing
through Sewickly Weinberger shot
Guitfreund and threw his body into
the bushes. Ho then drove over into
Ohio, where he disposed of Guitfreund's
team, wagon and other effects, and
came back to Pittsburgh. On being
told that he was accused of the murder,
he stoutly protested his innocence and
gave himself up, but was in jail but a
short time, when he coufessed the
murder to a friend and gave as a roason i
for doing it, that the devil was in him J
and he couldn't help it. A man named
Weißberger, a cousin of Guitfreund,
and who has often travelled with him
through this and other coantiea, was
at first suspected of being the murderer.
He was in this county at the time of
the murder, and leaving his pack at
the house of John Emrick, in Summit
township, he hastened to Pittsburgh to
clear himself. Weinberger and Guit
freund both came from Hungary,
where tbey lived within thirty miles
of each other. It was dark wheu the
murder was committed and had not

that his remains would have laiu un

Terrible Accident on the Ohio.
A terrible accident occurred on the
Ohio river on the night of the Fourth
opposite Mingo Junction, a collision
occurring between the steamer Sciota,
and a tow boat, the Lonias. The
Sciota bad on between four or five
hundred excursionists from East Liver
pool and Wellsville, 0., and was re
turning from Moundsville where they
had spout the day wheu the Lonias
was met. Both boats signaled but
there seem 3 to have been some con
fusion in the minds of the pilots and a
moment after they came together with
a crash, the Sciota sinking in übout
three minutes in sixteen feet of water.
Almost instantly the river was full of
persons who bad jumped off or been
knocked off by the collision. The
Lomas helped rescue many and many
others swam ashore *vbile much the
larger number were saved by getting
,on top of the cabin, which remained
out of water, and were afterward taken
off in boats. Up to Saturday last,
eighteen bodie3 had been recovered
from the river aud forty-eight were yet
missing. At Wellsville, business was
entirely suspended for several days, as
almost every family in the town was
mourning the loss of some friend or
relative.
If uilcr Oil New*.
The prospects begin to brighten in
the Renfrew Mills or Bald Kidge oil
territory. The failure of tho first
Phillips well threw a cloud over the
enterprises going on there, but we
learn the Shidemantle and other wells
about down are giving satisfactory
proofs for being a success. TheSchide
' mantle will be a good well, from re
ports just received. Others are ex
pected in soon.
The Phillips Pros. have located a
well on the farm of Judge McJunkin,
about a mile east of here, near the
railroad line, which they will push to
completion. If oil is foundthere it will
open up a new and extensive oil
field.

Prohibition Parly.
The Prohibition party of Butler
; county convened in the school building
' in Sunburyon Tuesday, June 20, 1882,
j in pursuance to call and was called to
J order at 1:2 3 I' M , by J. W. Orr,
I Chairman of the County Committee.
1 A chapter was then read and prayer
offered by llev. Bean, of Sunbury.
Mr. Robt J. Thompson was then elect
ed Chairman pro tern, and T. A Mc
i Elwain Secretary.
On motion a committee of five was
appointed to draft resolutions. The
Chair appointed J W. Orr, Rev.
Streamer, Rev. Bean, Mr. J. Steven
son and Mr. Wm Brandon, said Com
mittee
By motion the Secretary of the State
Executive Committee, Mr. D. Swoger,
made some remarks, showing that the
cause was progressing rapidly. [Ap
plause.] He was followed by some re
marks by Rev. Stratton. Then an
aged man, Mr. Thorn, made some re
marks and rtad an extract from a
( speech by Neal Dow.
The committee on resolutions report
ed the following, which was adopted :
"Recognizing the providence of Al
mighty God in the establishing and
maintenance of this Nation, we regard
it the duty of the Government to form
ulate and administer law for the pro
tection of the whole people, and for the
destruction of every foe and the over
throwing of every evil design. We
arraign the political parties which
have controlled the administration of
the Government of this country both
State and National, for both criminal
neglect and violating of the principles
of which the Government is ordained:
Ist. By refusing to protect by law,
life and property against the liquor
traffic crime.
2d. By compromising with the
liquor trafficers and constituting the
traffic a source of revenue to the Gov
ernment and the trafficers money mak
ing an immunity in crime. We re
affirm constitutional amendment, pro
hibiting the manufacture, importation
or sale of liquors as a beverage, funda
mental principles of our party. A con
stitutional amendment would be large
ly a dead letter without a Prohibition
party to see its enforcement. We
stand unalterably by our original pur
pose to maintain our party organiza
tion, incorporating our principles in
protest against the liquor license prac
tice. We reprobate as one of the evils
of the liquor trade the large amount of
penal labor which comes in direct and
injurious conflct with honest labor
and which could be redressed by sup
pression of such traffic We favor such
a traffic as is necessary for the proper
encouragement and protection of our
home industries.
Repressive measures must he put on
all active anil lateut monopolies, assur
ing the citizens liberty against venal
oombinat ORS and the people protection
from the encroachments of legislation
and exborbitent demands of capital.
We believe in practical civil service re
form in all the departments of our Goy
ernment. We hereby pledge ourselves
to stand by those put in nomination by
our State Convention and those we
place in nomination as representatives
of these principles."
The following nominations were
then made:
For Congress, Rev. E. Ogden, of
Middlesex twp.
For Assembly, Rev. J L.Strattoa and
Mr. Levi Porter
For Jury Commissioner, David
Daubenspeck.
On motion the same county officers
and committee to remain in the same
capacity as heretofore.
The Treasurer then reported that he
had paid all demands and had yet re
maining in hand two dollars; Mr. D.
Swoger then made some remarks while
steps were taken to raise some finance.
The Convention then adjourned to
meet at the call of the Chairman of the
County Committee.

An Inquiry.
HOOK Kit, CONCORD TWP., )
June 30, 1882. j
MESSRS. EDITORS:—I would like if
you would explain if our moneyed men
can draw, say a note for one hundred
dollars and draw it for one hundred
and six dollars without interest; and if
our assessors know this, or doubts that
it is lawful, if they are not throwing
themselves liable to trouble if they do
not report it to the commissioners. Or
if anyone else knows this, whether as
sessor or not, if they know this to bo
the case, or doubt it to be the case, and
report it to the commissioners if they
must look it up. Please explain this,
that the county may see it and that all
may be served alike, and oblige.
A CITIZEN.
ANSWER.
In our judgment all such drawing of
notes, etc., are attempts to avoid hav
ing money taxed, as money at interest,
and are simpiy evasions of the law,
and that is what is intended at the
time. The law requires money loaned
at interest to be assessed and taxed,
and it makes no difference whether or
not this interest is prepaid, or whether
its amount is incorporated into the
amount loaned, and to be paid at a
future time with the amount borrowed,
still it is in reality money that drew
interest.
As to the other part of the above in
quiry, we thing it is altogether a matter
for the assessors. It is their duty to
assess, and if they fail to do so, accord
ing to law, they are subject to law,
and any person can put the law in
force who chooses to do so. The com
missioners can give instructions to as
sessors and if they fin J a failure of duty
it would be their place to see that the
taxing laws are properly carried out in
that respect, as well as in all other re
spects.

A Fortune Found oil a Tramp
Who Died ill an AliiiHltouse.
GREKNSBUBU, Pa,, July 7.—Several
days ago a tramp, a rather seedy-look
ing customer, applied to Freeman C
Gay, the Steward, for a night's lodg
ing at the County Home. Gay took
him in, but said he would have to
take a bath and clean himself before
he could receive the hospitalities of
that institution. Gay said they took
no chance on lice or any other vermin
being brought into the home. Alter
hesitating for awhile, the German,
John Henry Rheinberg was his name,
agreed to take the bath and get ready
tor supper and bed. The first thing
be did was to hand out a bag of gold.
After divesting himself of his coat and
vest, he unbuttoned several large,
leather belts, which contained both
American and German securities, and
which were carefully placed away in
the belts, the gold, silver and securi
ties amounting to $21,000.
After this he ate a hearty supper and
retired. In the morning he did not feel
very well and remained there. To
ward evening his case became more
interesting, when it was decided he
had the typhoid fever. It was desireu
that he should make a will, but this he
declined to do, saying that he would
not die. The Catholic priest, Father
Hunternach, of this place, was attend
ing a young man close by and was
about to be called in when Rheinberg
said he was a Lutheran. Rheinberg's
condition became worse every day
until last Monday, when he died and
was given a very decent burial, we are
informed, in the German cemetery in
Greensburg on that afternoon. The
Poor House authorities, it is said,
have the address of Rheinberg's rela
tives in Germany, and who are the
rightful heirs of this money, and they
are making arrangements to hunt
them up and turn it over to tberu. It
is said the deceased was a miser and
did nothing but accumulate money,
never spending any, begging everv
thing and hoarding up every cent ho
could get his hands on.— Pittsburg
Dispatch.
ConltiHioii of TcriiiH.
Those Republicans who would
rather endure the methods of bossism,
sooner than help crush them, for fear it
would damage the party, seem to for
get thai there is to-day no Republican
party, in the proper meaning of the
term. Since the death and burial of
the murdered President, there has
been a so-called stalwart faction
which lias arrogated to itself tfie name.
The distinctive supporters of Garfield,
and of Blaine, and of Sherman, have
no more recognition or respect shown
them, than if they did not live, and
did not constitute the very flower of the
Republican organization. If Don
Cameron goes oft' somewhere on a
drunk, the smallest Postoffice cannot

There is about boseism, both iu the
boss and his minions, a vast deal of
the sink or swim, survive or perish
notion It is always all or nothing
with them. In a word they care-noth
ing for the party, as a party, as an
agency iu the formation of good gov
ernment. They care for it only as a
means to secure their own selfish ends.
When it ceases to be useful in that
way, it may go hang for aught they
care. This is the essence of Conkliug

—The public debt was reduced a
little over eleven millions and a half
during June, bringing down the total
debt to a little less than seventeen
hundred millions. During the past
fiscal year, which ended with June,
the debt was reduced one hundred and
fifty seven millions. At this rate
about eleven years more will see the
whole great national debt which at
one time looked so overwhelming, en
tirely paid off.
