The Andrews Raid. *Gra:i(l Exhibition of life-size oil paint ings illustrating the famous "Andrews lfaid," accompanied by a thrilling lecture by Mr. W. J. Knight, the engineer of the expedition. The life-size oil paintings fully aud truth ully represent tliu loading inoidents of this wonderful and romantic expedition. The lecture is a plain, simple story of twenty two I'nion soldiers, of the 2d, 21stst, and 33d Ohio regiments, acting under the order of Gcu. 0. M. Mitchell, capturing a train of cars in Georgia, in 1862, from the enemy's camp, while surrounded by 10,000 armed Kebel soldiers. They show the capture of the train; the escape, cutting of the tele graph wires, jeuriug up track and burning bridges. Fuel gives out: pursued by rebels; over-taken; tlee to the wood ; captured; in prison; cut out; recaptured; seven hung; pipre spnteppedj plot to capture the jailor; liet the keys; break jail; capture the guards; fugitives in the woods again; a chase for life; pursued by blood hounds; stealing geese and pigs, eaten raw for sustenance; forty seven davs reaching the Union linea «ud home; others recaptured, etc.. etc. In short this is one of the most daring and re man tie adventures ever attempted in the annals of ancient or modern warfare. It takes Mr. Knifht about two bonrs and a ball to relate the story, and he holds his 'jiijteners ju sugh breathless attention that lou can hear a pin drop iu an audience ol N.OOO people. Should any person attond mg tbis lecture come at its close and want his money - refunded, it will be given him. lou cau't afford to miss this lec ture.—At tho Butler Opera House on Sat urday, October 11, 180<J.

Oil Field Notes. The sensation of the week is the pusher ! <>n the Koruruuipf firm a short distance northeast of Jefferson Centre. It is owned ; hy the Jefferson Oil Co.. which at present is composed of Messrs. Gibson and Oahe gan, of Butler. Messrs. Patterson and i Deeds, of Pittsburg. and Andy Frazicr and Charley I'arker. James Gallagher aud Torn Frazier also had interests that wero J sold at Sheriffs sale during the past year. | The farm is owned by Laura Korn- I rumpt and her children* who are grown ap, ' and one of whom is married to Jacob Kum ! mer, of Butler. It adjoins the Ityerly I heirs' l'ann on which a dry hole was drilled j this .Spring, and a dry bole was drilled on 1 the same farm last Fall. The sand was I tapped Monday afternoon and the well bc gau gushing at a tremendous rate. Next day,after pipe-line connections were made, they were saving about 125 barrels an hour, and part of the oil was running to waste, showing that the well was doing over 3.000 a day. This well, with the Phillips well on "the Baumgartuer or old Reich farm, seems to designate a belt of good territory between Jefferson Centre and Herman. Titley «fc Co.'s 2 on the Wiles is rat-.-d at 150 barrels. Sheffield A Co.'s 2 on the Kamcrer is showing good. Phillips' well on the Haumgartner start ed off at 50. barrels. The Butchers well near Bakerstowu was drilled deeper last week and increased to 30 an hour. They arc drilling their well on the Richards deeper. The well on the Lefevre farm is rated at 50 a day. Operators are looking for leases between Wildwood and Bakerstowu. Seheiilemantle's 3on the the J. S. Ham bach is rated at 60 bbls.; McLaue No. 11 on the McLane f.t 5 bbls. The Harmony Oil Co.'s well on the Allen is rated at 40 bbls. an hour; the Continental Co.'s 1 on the Keep at 20 an hour, end Strohecker dt Co. on the Wilson at 100 a day. The Brown & Gibson on the Allen has an immense flow of salt-water. The Fisher <fc Co. well on the Steinmil lcr lot was doing-0 barrels an hour Tues day, and Zciukbain <t Bryan, and the McKee Co. are crowding their line with two rigs. Irvin <t Co's well on the Irvin made two two flows Tuesday, and Guckert it Co. on Beringer is in the sand with hole full of water. The Cunningham well ou the West, which has been pumping salt water for two weeks, is now pumping some oil. The well on the Friskorn,between Evans City and Zelienople, is reported good. The National Transit Co. is building a new station near Evans City. Reep tS: Co.'s two wells on the Martha Duubar are unw doing 80 bbls. of oil a day. The wild-cat well drilled by Titusville parties ou Wolf creek, west of llarrisville, is reported to be a duster. They got some gas at 900 feet, and at 1100 found 1"> feet of inferior sand. Evans, llays it Co. drilled their No. 1 on the M. S. Storey, near Fairview, to the 4th sand, and it is reported at 20 bbls. Me- Cafferty <t Morrison's well on the James Hind man is rated at 5 harrels. Corlin <V Co.'s 3 on the Swartzlander at 3, and Hays «{ Co. on the Ellenberger at 8. Messrs. Redick, Patterson and Golden, of Butler, who some months since drilled two or three test wells over the west hill,for oil or gas, aro now drilling for the same pur pose ou the Kennedy farm, over in How laud township, near Warren. A few days ago, at the depth of 32 feet a good show of gas aud oil was found, in less than an hour five gallons of heavy oil being taken from it, and the owners are confident of a five barrel well. Mecca oil >ells at 30 cents a gallon, making a five barrel well a very nice thing for a hole in the ground. The Warren Tribune says machinery has been ordered with the intention of putting down 30 more wells on the same farm.— Sharon Herald. A reunion of the Pitholers. the men who huilded and dwelt iu tbe city of Pithole during the days of the great oil excitemeut is to be held in the near future. A bill in equity was filed last Thursday by Thomas Liggett and James G. Hay maker against Albert L. Klaus, restraiuing him from selling or assigning a lease in the Saxonburg oil district. The plaintiffs state that they procured from Kiskadden <fc Clee land a one-half interest in a lease of this territory and afterwards Klaus secured the other half, but did not record it. Sub sequently he induced Kiskadden A* Co. to assign tho whole of the lease to him, not withstanding the plaintiffs' interest. THE SEW PIPE-LINE PROJECT. At the meeting of the producers in But ler last Thursday night the committee re ported that $150,000 would build a refinery of 500 barrels capacity, and a 3-inch 20- mile pipc-lifie with ten miles of con nections, ami subsciiption books were opened. The producers of Washington Co. also propose building a pipe line and re finery; and the producers of the Millers town field intend building a pipe-line to the Allegheny river. Those producers who have or will subscribe for stock will have a secret meeting this evening. The Markets.

Main St., Butler, Pa NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. Two Clarion county women are trying to . solve the egg and chicken problem before a Justice of the Peace. lliram Tate, landlord of the Shenango House at Sharon, Pa., bad bis license re voked, was fined #2OO and costs and given thirty days in jail lor selling liquor to meu of intemperate habits. A Pittsburg hotel keeper kissed a married | lady boarder six months ago. \\ ithiu a few davs since her husband presented the j boniface with a bill of SI,OOO for the j luxury, and on pay being refused suit was instituted for the amount. At Washington, Pa. the West-Crouch murder trial is on, this week, and the evi dence against West is growing stronger. A man who was sold a kicking horse rep resented to be as "gentle as a lamb wa< given a judgment of #l4O by a Pittsburg jary. The old proverb about all is fair in love, war and a horse trade don't go any more in the horse trade part. A Mcadville attorney who recently won for a client an important suit, the out growth of a third party's rascality, received a handsome fee, and as he did so remarked: "Odd, isn't it/ I have an overdue note at the bank- which I signed lor this same chap, and this fee will just lift it," and it did. A cheerful female school ma 'am iu Al legheny has beeu dismissed lor punishing her scholars in a most brutal way. She gagged them with pieces of flanuel saturat ed with benzine. In defense she said this method of punishing pupils was in vogue iu the public schools of Cleveland, and she took it for granted it was allowable iu Al legheny. A lady from Greeuviile took a driuk of cider, or something she thought to be apple juice, at the Stoneboro fair and was soou disgracefully drunk. She is said to stand well in society and feel the sting of her conduct keenlr. There are said to be 40,000,000 feet of logs yet in the Wiiliamsport boom. A farmer at North East, Pa. says he cleared ■'HOO on two acres of grapes. A Carlisle girl, with an 18-karat appetite recently ate two dozen ears of corn. A newly-elected school teacher at Berne ville, Berks county, is but thirteen years of age. From Brownsville Fayette Co., to Pitts burg. 54 miles, there are fifty-five stations ou the P. V. i C'. railroad. We do not say that every station may be called a town, but most of them are towns. In all that distance you are scarcely out of sight of a town. The population lining the river banks from the city limits to Brownsville must be übove 100,000. The apple crop of Penn'a is not a total failure as was suposid a month ago. In fact there is quite half the usual crop in the counties of McKean and Potter. In the northern part of Potter county good winter fruit only commands fifty cents a bushel. It is said that there will be an average crop iu the Northwestern states, famous for their yield of this fruit, as well as along the Atlantic coast, where the fruit has for years been cultivated with so much success in the prefection of its growth and the excellence of its varieties. The orchards in both these sections referred to are much more carefully cultivated than are such trees cared for in many parts of the Middle States. The largest tree in Mahoning Co. O. was cut down the other day. It stood near Poland, and was 6J feet in diameter at the base, 04 feet to the first limb, and 84 feet to the fork. About ten feet of the butt was hollow. The remainder of the tree made three 23 feet logs. It was a poplar and was sold for SGO on the stump. It will be sawed into lumber for a Cincinnati organ factory. Edwin Duryra, traveling salemau for Bowman A Wusser, wholesale jewelers, Lancaster, Pa., checked his sample case through from Mercer to Youngsfowii. via New Castle. The case was transferred all right at New Castle, but the branch train of the P. S. & L. E. R. R. had to lie at New Castle junction for some time, waiting for the* main line to Youngstown. In the trausfer of baggage at that point the case was not missed, but on Friday morning it was found in the satid house, not far from where the train had stood and waited. It had been cut open and rilled of eighty three gold watches. Forty-two watches and a small amount of jewelry was left in the case. The drummer places the loss at $1,500. aud detectives are now at work to run down the thieves. A couple of tramps that have been loitering about the junction all day are suspected. It is said that the theft is not the work of professionals, as it will be impossible to negotiate the stolen goods without being caught, as every memberofthe Jewelers' Insurance Associa tion will before now have the numbers of eases, movements, etc. The Pennsylvania Salt Manufacturing Company's works at Xatrona was the scene on last Saturday a week of one of the most shocking fatalities that has occurred in this vicinity for some time. Edward Sweeny, a young mau aged about nineteen years, who was assisting at some work among the machinery in what is called the "stone house," was caught in a manner not exactly known and drawn in between the heavy and rapidly revolving cog wheels. His left arm was literally ground up. while the greater portion of his face, neck and breast was almost reduced to a pulp of blood, flush and bones. His death was of course instantaneous. Mr. Deitrich, with whom the unfortunate young man was working, had the machinery slopped as quickly as possible and called for help Those who came to his assistance turned sick at the horrible sight, and in con sequence the duty of releasing and collect ing the remains of the poor fellow devolved upon Mr. Deitrich. This he did faithfully, although the task was a most terrible one. The sad occurrence is greatly deplored in the community in which the ycung man was best known. The people of Tionesta are at present afflicted with "yallar jaundice," arc sport ing cucumber-seed complexions. The Republican say* the principal objection to the disease is its inconsistency: It makes one look yellow while he feels blue. An amusing scene took place in the county court at Wilkes Barre last Friday. Mrs. Lavina Molenbrook brought suit against her husband, Henry Molenbrook, for desertion. At the tiino set for the hearing, the husband entered the court room with his attorney and seven other men. The plaintiff, however, was not in "court, nor was she represented by attorney. Finally, the presiding judge addressed the crowd: All the husbands of Lavinia Moleubrook rice and stand until counted." Kight men rose, solemnly faced the judge, aud claimed to the questionable honor of be ing l.avinia's marital acquisitions. His Honor, surveying them amazingly, could no more than gasp, "Dismiss the case," and the eight custodians of Laviuia's divid ed affections filed gravely out of court.

This time through uninterested parties, us the affidavit below will show: To all U liom It May Concern: I, Win. Ensminger, Supt. of Floral Xlull. in order to vindicate myself and Alex ander Williams before the public, and to contradict the statement published by Lamb & Grieb, saying that 1 selected the members of the Montooth band, who acted as judges for the pianos exhibited at But ler fair without the consent of Henry Troutman. do hereby swear that 1 was authorized by that gentleman. in the presence of Mr. Gib. Linn, to select the aforesaid judges, and they did honestly reward Air. Williams with the tirst premium on the Knrtzman piano, and their signatures may be found on fie books of the secretary, Wesley P. Koessing, which are open for inspection at any time. Wm. Ensjiisger. Sworn ■and subscribed before me this 7th day of October, A. D.,*1890. A. P. STEWART, J. P. The "baby talk" of Grieb it Lamb, which appeared in last week's papers, shows that they are still howling about the honor given the Kurtzmaun piano at our last fair. I know it i* hard to give in, but brace up and acknowledge you are whip ped. The public will think more of you; it will show you are business uien.and "would be less advertisement for the Kurtzuiann piano." This firm have plainly admitted by all their statements anil their actions before and after the lair that their goods could not compete with this famous piano. If they deny tuis charge they must answer the following questions: Ist. Why did they try to get the exclusive right to Floral Hail and b ,r Alex. Williams out? Because they were afraid of the Kur.zmaun pi-mo. 2nd. Why did they import a pinno from Xew York for the occasion? Because they had nothing in stock to offer as competi tion for the Kurtzman piano. 3rd. Why did R. J. Lamb visit the grounds every morning as soon as the gates wer3 open in order to tune his pianos? Because he found he had perfection nlone to rival with in the Kurtzmann piano. 4th. Why did this firm waut to import a friend to them and the Behr piano to act as judge in this line? Because they were afraid to submit to a fair trial by competent and uupreju diced judges. All these facts go to prove this firm have 110 confidence in the goods they are hand ling. Or if they have, why do they dis play this evidence, as it only weakens the confidence of the people in regard to their honesty and integrity. But did you ever notice that the firm which does no business always kicks about its competitors doing any? Since the fair the following are a few of the many of those who have purchased the celebrated Kurtzmann piano from me: Amos Seaton, County Treasurer. Butler; George Stamm. brick manufacturer, Butler; 11. W. Young, contractor, Butler: Organs: J. C. Mont gomery, Saxon; Ben Steppe, Glade Alills, and Lou Burton, Glade Mills. The above names will convince the pub lic that I am still doing the business in the town, and am now offering wonderful bar gains in pianos and organs. Call at my store and be convinced. To the "dear babies" I bid a«'ieu, as I think the above article speaks for itself. In conclusion, my affidavit appears below. To the pub lic I remain Very respectfully, ALEX. WILLIAMS. In order to deny the false statement made by the firm of Grieb & Lamb I here by swear that in conversation on the 3d day of October, with W. P. Roessing, Sec retary of the Butler Agricultural Associa tion,* and <i. W. Campbell, director of aforesaid association, both gentlemen did tell me they were present at the first and only meeting after ihe fair, and no action was taken in regard to decision of judges or awarding of diplomas. And further more on this Bth day of October, did go. to Mr. Ilcnry Troutman and asked him if he had in any way authorized this firm to use his name. Was answered emphatically that he, or no other member, to his knowl edge, had given the tinn of Grieb & Lamb permission or right to use their names in this matter. ALEX. WILLIAMS. COM.
