•' A Surprising Discovery.
11 While young George Gibson was
hunting ground-hogs at the edge of tbe
Krumpe woods in Coal Hollow, Buffalo
; township. Tuesday afternoon, he found
more than he was looking for. In a
, fence corner lay the skeleton of a man.
dressed in a black suit, with black hat
lying nearby. His skull had fallen off,
his shoes were good; there was $1.62 in
his pockets, and his gold watch-chain
had a cross upon it, but the watch was
; gone.
! George reported his find to the
' neighborhood, and the County Coroner
; was notified, but the inquest, that
' nigbt, developed no facts excepting
( that during last winter a man called at
I Jos. Wright's for something to eat, that
1 uiitjht have been this man. There were
no marks of violence upon the clothing
or skull, but there was a chip off h s
left shoulder blade. The remains weie
taken to Saxonburg, and buried next j
day.
A Small-pox Caso.
At the B. <ic O. station. Tuesday after
noon, Dr. Ilockenberry noticed that a
foreigner waiting to take the train to
Branchton had the small-pox, but while
he was notifying the local authorities
the man disappeared, and the woman
and child with him got on the train.
Oil ami Gas Notes.
The Market—An advance of 3 cents,
last Saturday, made the price $1.33, and
another 3-cent advance, Tuesday, made
it $1 86.
Summit—The Stephenson farm well
is a heavy gaeser.
Butler twp.—The Southern's No. 2 on
the Waldron is due this week.
Penn—The Guilford Co'a No. 3. on
the Nixon was put to pumping, Mon
day night, and did 25 bbls in ten hours.
Clearfield —Gregg & Co. have made
another location on the Dennis Mcßride.
Adams—Adams & Co s No. 1 on the
Staples doing 12 bbls. and drilling has
begun at No. 2.
Russia—The production of Russian
oil at one time was tbe largest in tbe
world, but since the great oil discoverits
in Texas and California, the United
States has one more taken first place i n
the petroleum production of the world.
With the war ended, and the Russian
troops once free to retire from active
service along the Manchurian frontier,
the present outbreak will be speedily
put down, but it will require months,
and perhaps years, before the prod ac
tion of Russian oil is brought back to
its former large proportions. The pop
ulation of the oil districts about Baku
is a mixture of Tartars, Russians and
Armenians. Tbe Tartars do most of
the work about the oil fields and re
fineries, while the Armenians make the
most money. The Tartars are under
Turkish influence and have led the re
volts against the Russian authorities,
and the attacks upon the property of
the rich Armenians and the foreign
companies engaged in the oil business,
which, in spite of reports to the con
trary, has been highly profitable.—
