A Good Beglnnnlng.
The political campaign in Batler County
may be said to have opened with the meet
ing of the Republican County Committee
here last Saturday. The canvass so lar
has l>een very quiet and uneventful, but
the work of organization has been going on
steadily.
The Chairman and Secretaries of the
County Committtec have matters well in
hand.
In an ••off year" such as this, there is
always more or indifference among
TOters and even among party worker*, but
thin meeting of the Committee and the
completing of the organization will have a
tendency to awake all to their duty. We
were agreeably surprised at the number of
(•launch Republicans who gathered in Bnt
ler last Saturday, all parts of the county
were represented, and the attendance
•poke well for the zeal and enthusiasm of
Butler County Republicans.
Next Governor.
A Republican candidate for Governor, to
succeed Governor Beaver, has to be nomi
nated next year and there are already a
number of gentlemen named for the nomi
nation. Among them is Hon. Charles W.
Stone of Warren County, Ex-Lieut. Gov
ernor and Secretary of the Commonwealth.
The Bradford, McKean County, Star, of
26th .Sept. nit., has quite an able article in
his favor: his home papers of Warren Co.,
also strongly endorse his candidacy aud
ill who know Ex Lieut. Gov. Stone per
sonally will heartily assent to all said of
him as a man. His record aud his ability
as a public officer are also equally good,
and while it is yet a little early to discuss
the merits of candidates for Governor, in
the nomination of Mr. Stone the Republi
cans would undoubtedly have a clean, pure
and strong candidate.
Four New States.
North and South Dakota. Washington
and Montana held their elections to ratify
their proposed constitutions, and elect
State officials, last Tuesday, and the for
mal proclamation of the President is now
the only thing necessary for their complete
admission to the Union, and to entitle
them to full representation in Congress
and in the Electoral College. The admis
sion of these States makes a complete line
of States along our Northern boundary, ex
cepting the narrow strip of Idaho, just as
Utah stands in the way farther South.
The returns from the new States are in
complete, but indicate that North and
South Dakota aud Wivshington have elect
ed their Republican tickets, aud that Mon
tana has elected its Democratic.
11l South Dakota the Prohibition clause
of the Constitution is supposed to have
carried, while the Minority Representation
clause is supposed to have been defeated.
North Dakota lias probably rejected Prohi
bion, Washington has probably defeated
the Female Suffruge article in its proposed
Constitution. In South Dacota most of
the campaign work was devoted to dis
cussion of the site for a new capital, the
cities in the field for the honor being Sioux
Falls, Hnron; Pierre, Mitchell, Watertown,
and Chamberlain.
Washington voters had to choose be
tween Olyinpia and Yakima for State cap
ital while the questions of woman suffrage
and prohibition were ulso voted on.
In Montana the issue was entirely polit
ical.

A < rwoi s discovery connected with the
recent disastrous conflagration is reported
by a Spokane Falls paper. The safe of
llasoii. Smith <1 Co. became cracked by the
inten«e heat and their books were ;-harred
and baked to a blackened crisp, though
they remain intact. Not a figure could be
distinguished. One of the bookkeepers,
wliii. turning over the leaves, noticed that
where hi- finger, which was wet, touched
the page the ligtirc- appeared legible
through the moi-ture. He procured a paint
br..-h dipped it in water, and dampened
the wbolu page, and was gratified to see
all the figures dimly outlined. Two book
keep' r* then went to work. aniPby wetting
the page- and carefully turning the leaves
succeeded in a few days in transferring all
the accounts to a new set of books. The
books are as black as iuk, and the leaves
crumble to piece* when handled.
Meeting of the Co., Committee,
The meeting of the County Committee
in Batler last Saturday was one of the
most agreeable and harmonious that we
have ever attended. It was called to order
by Chairman Bell at 1:30 p. m. Secretary
Wise called the roll, and it was found that
thirty districts were represented.
Dr. Bell stated that the object of the
meeting was to hear reports from the dis
tricts and consult as to the work of the
campaign.
Mr. Barron moved that each township
be called upon for a report, which was
agreed to.
Mr. J. C. Kiskaddon, of Allegheny twp.,
had nothing special to report, thought that
everything was all right in his twp., and
that all that was needed was to get out
the vote.
S. H. Murse. of Buffalo twp. said every
thing was in working order in his twp.
Mr. J. B. Orbison of Donegal said that

was out, and there was more oil than pol
itics in the twp. just now.

O. G. Mechling of Jefferson twp; Mr. J. C.

Prospect, and Mr. J no. Watters of Evans
City; and Messrs. Ensminger, McCandle ss
and Robinson of Butler, all made similar
reports.
Hon. C. C. Townshend, who was in the
room, was then called upon for a few re
marks. lie said that the State Committee
was anxious that a full vote should be poll
ed this year, and from what he saw here
he had no doubt but that Butler county
wonld do her share, and that we should
not encourage tho enemy by any negli
gence.
Xewton Black Esq., being called upon
said that work was always necessary, that
over confidence left votes at homo, that
election this year was just as important as
though there was a full ticket in the fiold,
that the Republican party was in better
shape to-day than it had been for fifteen
yewrs, that it now controlled both branches
of Congress and tho Executive and was in
shape to pass some greatly needed nation
al laws.
Col. Redic, being called upon, said that
there was one principle of war that would
apply to politics, and that was that when
you got the enemy on the run you should
follow him up as closely as possible and
keep him on the run.
Xobody else felt like talking, r.n<l a mo
tion to adjourn carried at 3 p. in., and end
ed an instructive meeting and one that
should be of benefit to the party.

Butler Co. Oil Field.
The Reed 4 Co. well on the Br. Wm.
Irvine farm, about a mile below Callery
Junction and half a mile west of Myoma
station, came in good, last Thursday eve
ning. When the sand was reached, the oil
spouted over the derrick, took fire from the
forge and burned np the rig. The fire was
extinguished next evening and the well
has been been producing about 23 barrels
an hour or over 500 barrels a day since.
This well is but a few rods from the old
dry hole on the Kline farm; the nearest
producing well is on the John Staples fann
a mile of so distant, so it will be seen that
it opens np a new field; and it created a
great excitement among oil men. who
flocked to that vicinity for leases. Dr. Ir
vine leased ten acres more of same farm to
Bishop <£ Co.. of Evans City, for $3,000.
and 30 acres to the South Penu or Standard
Oil Co. for $13,500. The well waa owned
by Reed A Co.. who sold it, Saturday, to
Greenlee, Russell A- Forst for $40,000, but
there was a hitch in the proceedings. The
lease was taken by W. 11. Gibson, who
with the assistance of a Mr. and Mrs.
Davis, of Pittsburg, started the well; Gib
son ran out of money and his interest was
sold by the other parties at constable's
sale; and after the well came in good
he claimed that he had uever been legally
divested of his interest and employed
attorneys to bring suit. On Tuesday eve
ning the matter was settled, the well sold
to the parties named for $43,000, and the
money divided as follows —Gibson and his
attorneys got SB,OOO, Reed s7,l66,Mcln
tyre $3,500, Paul Mcßride $7,160, Mrs.
Davis SIO,OOO, and Mrs. Davis $7,106.
The Christie Bros, well on the Welsh
farm came in good, Friday morning. When

The Kessclman-Locke well on tho Duff
farm, Brush Creek, drilled some months
ago and supposed to be a duster, was drill
ed deeper last week, and began flowing at
the rate of 300 a day. It opens consider
able new territory.
Christie No. 2 on the Greenert farm
reached the sand, Sunday, and began flow
ing at the rale of 200 a flay. There are
three producing wells on the Greenert
farm now, and the royalty of the widow
and heirs amounts to about SSOO a day.
Some years ago John's interest was sold at
Sheriff's sale and bought by Daniel F.
Xegley, who now claims a ninth interest in
the production.
Pontious, Rodgers <t Co. sold twenty-two
producing wells in Fairview Tp.,last week,
to S. G. Coffin, of Bradford, for $35,000,

A five barrel well was completed on the
Levi Kerr farm, near Farmington, in Ve
nango Tp., a few days ago. The lease is
owned by Charley Westerman, of Millers

The Fat Men's Club.
What unctuous fun the title suggests.
Who has not heard of fat men's clnbs, so
suggestive of clam bakes and other sum
mer diversions? What hamlet, village,
town hath not its fun-making at the ex
pense of extra avoirdupois? Fat men have
furnished fan to the masses through count
less generations. Fat men throughout the
land furnish us with most of our merriment
and much of our philosophy. In the make
tip of our communities they are central
figures, and mix wisdom with jest in such
proportion as to give a leaven to legislation
that does away with its dryness. On the
whole the fat man is more useful than or
namental. J. C. Stewart, as a fat comedi
an, is a worthy successor to liurton. In
the last seven years he has won fame and
fortune in his extravagantly amusing com
edy. "The two Johns." He is known
the length and breadth of the Uud. "The
two Johns" is still iu the full tide of suc
cess.
Mr. Stewart has recently writteu anoth
er comedy, "The Fat Men's Club," in
which he will enact the leading character,
and iu which will appear a quintette of fat
players. The very name suggests a wide
scope for humorous characterization. Of
this the auth or has taken full advantage.
The piece is full of convulsive lines, ludi
crous situations and side-splitting business.
Twenty-four people will appear in it, in
eluding two vocal quartettes, male and fe
male, and a troupe of acrobats.

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
Miss Mamie Robinson, a daughter of
Sarti'l Robinson of Franklin. Pa., drowned
herself in French Creek last Sunday night.
She left a note saying that she was tired
of life.
A Brownsville woman undertook to cut
bread while holding the baby in her arm?.
She c-nt the bread and also the end ol the
babv's nose off.
In Allegheny last Thursday a man was
fined $25 and costs for keeping a vicous
dog chained in his yard. The dog bit a
woman, who brought suit under the new
law.
The top of the crucible of blast furnace
C, of the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, in
Braddock. gave way last Thursday even
ing, allowing the molten metal to pour
down in a burning stream upon General
Mauager William R. Jones and ten work
men, who were on the sand below. One
of the workmen was burned to a cinder,
another died on Friday, and Capt. Jones
died Saturday evening. Furnace C, at
which the accident occurred was not work
ing well during the day. At 7 o'clock,
shortly after the night force reported for
duty, Captain Jones with six of his men
went to work to remedy the trouble. The
monkey at the bottom of the furnace
through which the iron passes into the
sand pit was taken off. The cooler next to
the monkey was also removed aud it was
found that a hard crust of cinder had
formed inside the furnace. This crust had
caused the trouble, and in shattering it
with a heavy iron bar it passed through
into the furnace, which is 80 feet high and
23 feet in diameter. It was completely
filled with molten iron.
With that enormous pressure a steam of
seething fire flashed from the 15-inch hole
made in breaking the crust. It struck the
workmen with terrific force and scattered
them about in wild coufnsion. Captain
Jones was thrown back full forty feet,
while the others were lifted about the sauie
distance in other directions.
At Mt. Alton, 10 miles from Bradford.
Pa., John Quinn shot and killed his wife
last Thursday with a Winchester rifle.
The cause of the crime is said to be unjust
jealousy, claims that his wife had
been intimate with a man named Brennan.
After shooting his wife Quiun started after
Itrennan with the Winchester on his should
er, but was disarmed by Constable Wash
bourn and taken to Smethport and lodged
in jail.
On Thursday last the Hebrews of Pitts
burg celebrated their New Year's Day. All
the synagogues were crowded, and the ser
vices were especially beautiful at the
Eight Street Reformed Temple, where
Rabbi Mayer occupied the pulpit. A num
ber of the orthodox congregations went to
the river bank and there proceeded with
their devotions according to an old custom.
Two of the three prisoners who escaped
from the Brookville jail some weeks since
were recaptured, tried and convicted of
the offense charged against them. They
also got a year each to the workhouse for
breaking jail. It is pretty severe to be
sent to prison for falling out of jail.
The last remnant of the once powerful
and warlike tribe of Seneca Indians, who
remain on the reservation in Warren coun
ty, has dwindled away to less than 100
members. The red man is passing away
at such a rapid gait that it won't bo many
years before the last one has obeyed the
summons of his Manitou and gone to the
happy hunting grounds, leaving behind
him only the romance of his life and the
history of onr country to remind us that he
was ever among us.

Burney Martin, noted in Forest county
annals, was tried at Tionesta last week for
selling liquor without license, lie was ac
quitted. Several years ago, it is said Bar
ney beat the county out of several hund
red dollars by manufacturing the cars of
wildcats and getting the bounty on the
same. With a genuine car for a pattern,
he would cut its shape out of the hide as
far as the hide would go. Then, as wild
cats' ears have hair on both sides, he scrap
ed the flesh side of the bogus ears till they
were thin enough, and then glued them
together. One day, while getting his
bounty for a false ear, it fell into a tub of
water, came apart, and put an end to Bar
ney's game.
A hktkkn- ykar-old girl arrived at Cas
tle Garden, last week, as the vanguard of a
family of twenty-five children, the rest of
whom are soon to follow. Her lather,
mother,thirteen sisters and eleven brothers
will join her if she gives a favorable report
of life and prospects in America.
THAT was a terrible railroad accident on
the X. Y. Central near I'alatine Bridge,
last Friday, and the circumstances can be
condensed as follows:
The first section of the St. Louis vesti
buled express had a defective steam chest.
The second section's brakes didn't work.
Somo say it wasn't signaled.
Others say the order to run ten minutes
apart was disregarded.
Anyway, the second section ran into the
rear end of the first, and the result was
four travelers killed and quite a number
injured.
