The disastrous fire that visited our town on Sunday evening last and swept away our handsome new opera house and two dwelling houses clearly demonstrated the pressing need of a good fire company here. It is needless to say nearly all the citizens of town worked hard at the fire, but worked at a disadvantage owing to the fact that they lacked discipline. A' fire company should be organized before another conflagration visits us. Mr. Horace Crary, of Liberty, N.

is in town visiting his brother, Jerry Crary. i 1' It is the unanimous wish of tbe jieople of Sheffield that J. Clinton and P. F. Bogert should obtain license in June.

These men have proved themselves capable of living up to the rcquirments of the law in handling liquor. The Social Club will give a select dance at Perkins' Hall Friday evening. The Knights of Pythias, whose hall was in the opera house block that hun. ed last Sunday, held their meeting in Horton, Crary Co's. hall Tuesday evening.

The lodge is in a nourisning condition having a membership of 42. Mr. E. Walker, publisher of the War ren Mirror, was in town Monday writing up an account of the fire for his enterprising paper. As characteristic of the Mirror it was the first paper in the county that gave a full and authentic account of the fire.

E. depot. During the week the Kane Oil Co, have brought in two wells on their 25 acre lease in the northwestern corner of 420. Mr. H.

B. Porter places the production of the two wells at 350 barrels per day. Coast, Thyng Co's. No. 21, two loca tions south of the Kane Oil Co.

lease on 420 struck sand Saturday afternoon and is flowing at a 200 barrel gait The Stone well on 379 is nearing the ticklish spot hut is delayed by a fishing job. They should get in some time dur ing this week. Barnsdall's on 346 should reach the sand before the week comes to a close. These last two wells are the most impor tant now drilling in this field and the result is being anxiously awaited by the producing fraternity. We understand the Stone well is to be worked as a first class mystery, but as yet no guards have been thrown out.

The "One Horse Gas Company's" well on 386 should with good luck reach the bottom by Sunday or Monday next. It is located for a good well and will with out doubt be a fair producer. The Hemlock Oil Co's. wells on 3132 still remain a mysterious uncertainty to the outside public. Nothing has been done at them for some time and no one but the owners know how deep they are, or what showing they have for oil wells.

A careful gauge of this field Monday morning showed a total daily produc tion of 5,327 barrels from 95 wells and 71 wells drilling, rigs up, and in the course of construction. This is an increase of oyer 1300 barrels per day since the pre ceding Monday morning. The old wells seem to have struck about their regular gait and do not decline as rapidly as heretofore and the production of new wells is clear gain to the daily output. Coast Thyng on their lease on 420 are pushing things as fast as possible and the Union Oil Co. on 419 are doing the same.

Rig builders are in great demand and as these lots are sure to be prolific producers the daily production should approximate 10,000 barrels within th next twenty or thirty days. Sheffield Sco; AbouTst eu uTIock Sunday evening fire was discovered in the basement of the Mechanics Lyceum Association building at Sheffield, in which the handsome new opera house and the hall of the Knights of Pythias were situated. In spite of all efforts to check the blaze, the structure was soon wrapped in flames. The fire soon spread to two dwelling houses, one owned by Charles Siegle and the other by the stock company who owned the opera house. All three buildings were, entirely consumed.

The Siegle house was occupied by a man named Robertson and the opera house tenement by a Swede family. A part of the contents of these two buildings were saved but all that was rescued from the opera house were a few pieces of scenery and the piano. J. be handsome new dwelling of Mr. Siegle which stands only a few rods from the opera house, is badly damaged, but was saved from burning by the exertions of the bucket brigade and water from the hose of the tannery company.

The origin of the fire is unknown. There has been no fire in the building for several weeks. A short time before the flames were discovered Geo. Younger and J. AV.

Barr who had been in the Knights of Pythias hall, came out of the building, and it is reported that one of them was smoking, but as both men say they were not in the part of the building where the fire started, no blame attaches them. The Opera House building was a handsome structure, commenced about two years ago and finished last summer. It was elegantly furnished inside and cost, with the ground on which it stood, 9,000, the building alone costing $7,000. It was insured for $5,000 with Knapp Cable of this place, thus making a net loss of $2,000. The loss of the Knights of Pythias was about $800 They lost everything, even to their books.

The contents of their hall were insured $500, also placed with Knapp Cable. Neither of the other buildings burned were insured. The damage to Mr. Siegle's residence and its contents' is estimated at $2,500. Warren Mirror.

The long pending traffic contract between the IMttsburgh Western, the Big Level Kinzua, and the Bradford, Bordell Kinzua Railroads was foi mally completed on Tuesday. The tract for constructing the "missing link" between Mt. Jewett and Ormsby's within sixtv davs has been let to Tennant Johnson, of Zelicnople, Pa. With characteristic energy they have already got their tools to Mt. Jewett and will have a hundred men at work inside ot ten days.

They mean business and we wish them success. The track will be constructed wholly oi new lortv pound Heel rails from the Pennsylvania Steel Works, fastened with angle bars of the regular standard gauge ittcrn. The rails are expected to arrive in June. Tl track will be laid with heavy ties and ballasted with stone. A fine trestle bridge will span the Erie R.

R. near Mt. Jewett and avoid all risk of delays or accidents. In short it will be more substantially constructed than any narrow gauge railroad in Pennsylvania and it expects to do a bigger business. t.

R. members of other Posts and all residents of Kane, take notice that there will be a meeting at Davis' Hall, Friday evening, May 21, at 8 o'clock, to make arrangements for the ceremonies on Decoration Day. May 29, 1886. Let state and church go and make their arrangements with us and make it a day never to be forgotten.

Respectfully yours, R. E. Looker. A Big Failure. The oil trade was considerably start led Tuesday morning by the announcement i that the brokerage firm of Craig Lowrie operating on the floors of the Pittsburg, Oil City, and New York Ex changes were unable to meet their obligations and about two million barrels of oil were sold out by the presidents of the exchanges for their account.

The senior member of the firm, Mr. Joe Craig, is also the senior member of the firm of Craig Cappeau operating in this field, but the failure does not in any way affect the latter firm. Craig Lowrie have been in the oil market since 80 cents was reached and the remarkable field now being developed at the Washington as well as the unex pected extent of the Kane pool, so, de preciated the price of petroleum that they were compelled, in the vernacular of the floor, to "lie down." A private telegram from Mr. Joe tappeau, wno is in Pittsburg, conveys the intelligence that the creditors will be paid 100 cents on the" as Mr.5 Craig's personal fortune is sufficient to pay double the amount of the firm's liabilities and only needed a little time to realize. This is one of the heaviest failures in the his tory of the oil business.
