*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

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

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.—

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

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

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.

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.

manufactured, is what we pride ourselves
on, and in respect of quality and work, our
goods will not disappoint the purchaser, in
the matter of price we stand pre-eminent
as lovers of low price? and buyers will find
our figures as fair and low as any that can

is their trade is principally Southern trade,

Late Foreign Goods Squeeze
Through Under the Old
Tariir. Wild Excitement in
New York—lmporters and
Brokers Importune the Col
lector to Keep the Custom
House Open Till Midnight—
The Request of the Crowd Is
Granted and the New Duties
Postponed.
Considerable excitement was caused yester
day In the Custom Rouse in New York hy im
porters and'brokers, who wildly Importuned
Collector F.rhardt to allow them to gel goods In
under the old law as late as midnight. The re
quest was granted.
Nrw YORK . Oct. I.—Tile most Intense e.vclie
tnent pr 'railed In end about tin- Custom House
all day. V hole irn-ips of Importers and brokers
kept coming and going. As:) o'clock approjcli
ed the numbers increased until rl: nilv tlie
rotunda of the Custom House was tilled with a
solid mass <>f humanity, which perspired, Jo--
lled. pushed and yelled.
All carried laigc sums of money. They were
on hands to enter goods that were expected t«
arrive late this afternoon. They wished to gel
their entries In under the old law. and stood
ready to make their entries tne moment tie
vessel arrived at Fire Island. Ity the decision
of yesterdav the custom House was to have
closed on the stroke of 3 o'clock this afternoon.
Vll goods arriving after that hour were to come
in under the new law and duty was to he
charged accoratngly.
GREAT EXCITEM ENT.
Hie mass of importers and brokers In the
Custom House was so great at 3 o'clock thai
C .Hector F.rhardt ueeined It inadvisable to close
at thai hour, lie announced that the time
would be extended until 4 o'clock. Each mo
ment alter 3 o'clock the excitement became
.ireater Those In the rotunda appealed to be
going crazy They shout, d. .veiled and made
lutile efforts to move about. The sceue was not
unlike that of the Stock Exchange.
The clerks In the various divisions were
swamped with business. Not for yean has
such a scene been enacted In the Custom House,
hvery few minutes whole delegations of im
porters and brokers invaded the Collector's
onicc. and impoituned him to keap the Custom
House open until midnight. The Collector was
lu a quandary. His otlice was jammed full of
importers, who waved rolls of bills In their
hands, and shouted to him not to close the
Custom House.
HELD OPEN TILL MIDNIGHT.
The pressure on the Collector became so great
that he anally sent a telegram to Washington.
1! vvus directed to Secretary Wlndoin and re
quested advice as to what the Collector should
do under the circumstances.
The importers expected the vessels to arrive
at 5 o'clock. In a little time there came an
answer from Washington. It was Horn the
Secretary or the Treasury, and informed the
Collector that he could use liis own discretion
m the matter.
I'pon receipt of Secretary \\ ludom's telegram
Collector ErUardt and his seven deputies held a
consultation. They decided to keep t he Custom
House open until 12 o'clock to-nlglit. The im
porters cheered. Tli»* steamships ISegnale, City
