Burgess Smith spent Sunday in AA'il liamsport with his family, and refurned with them Monday evening. Scott Holnian, of Renovo, for many years a resident of Kane, was in town on Tuesday, shaking hands with his many friends. AY.

P. AVcston and Dr. G. II. Preston returned on Saturday from their AY'estern trip.

J. Collins, died in Bradford on Friday, aged sixty two. The funeral took place at Erie on Saturday afternoon, and was attended by Air. and Mrs. E.

Collins and family. Din fee and Johnson, the two young men from Port Allegany who were arrested on the charge of hanging E. B. Dollcy in efligy because of his opposition to Prof. Norton as a candidate for county superintendent, were convicted at Smethport last week, and each sentenced to pay a fine of $25 and the costs of prosecution.

The case will be appealed to the Supreme Court. Rev. John E. Paxton, formerly pastor of the Pine street Presbyterian church Ilarrisburg, who has spent a number of summers at the Thomson House, and occasionally filled the pulpit of the Presbyterian church, is now pastor of the Forty second street Presbyterian church, New York, at a salary of 812,000. The aggregate wealth of his congregation is over 1600,000,000.

In another column will be found the card of Clyde Kime, of Ridgway, announcing his embarkation in the real estate and conveyancing business. AYre have known Clyde from boyhood, and have therefore no hesitation in recommending him to the favor of the public. Gifted by nature as a penman, and being neat and orderly in his methods, he makes one of the handsomest records that we have ever seen. Having for a number of years been deputy prothonotary of Elk county, he is thoroughly familiar with real estate matters in that county, and is well versed in the forms and phraseology used in conveyancing. Those ot our readers requiring the sendees of any one in the real estate and conveyancing line, would do well to communicate with him.

One of the chaps who burglarized the safe in the office of the Kane gas light and heating company, made an attempt to escape from jail at Smethport, and came very near succeeding. The incident is related in the Bradford Era of the 2d in these words "Charles Hig gins, alias Gist, who will go to the western penitentiary for two years and four months, sacrificed his handsome moustache the other day, and but for the keenness of Deputy Sheriff Clarke would have walked into freedom. It was visitor's day at the jail. Iliggins shaved off his lip protector, put on his best clothes and slipped into the crowd. As he neared the door that led to freedom he looked up.

That was a fatal look. The deputy recognized the eyes, and their owner was hustled back into prison, much to the surprise of some of the ladies who were in the crowd." BIRTHDAY PARTY. Miss Flora Lay was eleven years old yesterday, and she gave a birthday party in honor of the event, which was attended by about tw enty of her young friends and acquaintances. The day was all that could be desired, and the spacious lawn surrounding her father's house was a scone of lively merriment. The little revelers partook freely of the bountiful hospitality of Mis3 Flora, and entered into the varied amusements that suggested themselves with a zeal and enthusiasm which only the buoyancy of youth can supply.

The occasion as certainly one long to be remembered bv all participants. Thompson Bros, hafve just received a largo invoica of true celebrated Owens driving whips. Call aiutoxamine them. Hot and cold, AVy'inean the baths at Diffenderfer's, next lb the'llotel LaAIont, Wall Taper at Fryling's. Dr.

Viiquirc of and TinifcUry jHeed at O. B. cil was held in the council chamber on Monday evening. Present Messrs. Myers, M'Dade, Corson, Griffith, Preston and Coleman.

The meeting was called to order by President Myers, and the minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. Mr. M'Dade presented the following petition, which was read To the Honorable the Burgess and Council of the Borough of Kane, M'Kean County, Your petitioner respectfully represents that he, witli others, have associated themselves together under the name of "The Kane Gas and YYater Company," the object of which said organization is to supply the said borough aud inhabitants thereof with pure water for domestic and other uses, and natural eas for light and fuel. He therefore prays your honorable body to assent, by ordinance, to the erec tion ami maintainance by said association of all necessary machinery, buildings, tanks, reservoirs, cisterns, conduits and pipes, for the production, reception, storage and conveyance of natural gas and water, with the right to excavate, drill, bore for, produce, store and distribute natural gas and water within said borough and for the purposes aforesaid to enter with its agents, engineers aud workmen upon any of the publicslreets, highways, Janes, alleys and bridges, to occupy, ditch and lay necessary pipes and conduits through the same, for the conveyance and distribution of natural and water from the place of production or storage oi tne same to any place in said uorougii, ana lie wilt ever pray, xo. James M'Dade.

After the petition had been discussed by the members; an ordinance granting the privileges prayed for wasunanimously adopted. The ordinance will be found in our advertising columns. The following bills were presented and orders directed to be drawn for the respective amounts: Kick Donovan, boarding suvcyor, live ua.vs 7 to Kane (Jan Li.L'ht and Healins gas for April 0 71 Udays' labor ou streets aud lock on 10 5 John (Jill, assisting suveyor in esOiblishinir crade. daws 7 Oil G.

The resignation was accepted, and, on motion of Mr. Coleman, James Hyde was elected to fill the vacancy.

On motion of Mr. M'Dade, George AY'yveil and Harvey Cunmiings were chosen special police officers. Mr. Corson moved that a special meet ing ol council be held on Monday evening next for the purpose of considering the propriety of opening certain streets. Agreed to.

Adjourned at 9:30 p. m. KA GREAT GAS WELLS. AY'e stated in our last issue that a party of the substantial business men of Rochester were here on theolst ult. with a view of securing a supply of nat ural gas for the use of that city.

One of the party was a representative of the Union and Ail vert iner, who, upon his return home wrote the following interesting account of his trip: It has come to be regarded as neces sary to the future of Rochester that she shall not, be behind in the matter of supplying her manufacturers with cheap fuel. To this end a number of gentle men on Thursday last, by invitation, visited the celebrated Roy ec Archer gas wells, near Kane, some twenty live miles south ol Bradford. 1 lie party consisted of Messrs. M. F.

Reynolds, George E. Mnmford, llobart F. Atkinson, Edward Harris, II. D. MeNanghton, George AYr.

Archer and a Union representative. Taking a train on the Buffalo, Rochester Pittsburg! i railroad at 7:50 a. they reached Bradford shortly after noon, and there were politely invited by General Superintendent James T. Gardner to seats in his private car as far as Mt. Jewett, whence the trip was made by the Bradford, Bordell oc Kinzua narrow gauge railroad to Kane.

The famous Kinzua viaduct was an interesting sight for most of the party 301 feet high, 2,052 feet long. It is but half an hour's ride from Kane, and is well worthy a special visit. It is the highest bridge in the world, carrying the railroad Erie and R. P. trains from the top of one mountain to that opposite, crossing the valley of the Big Kinzua more than 300 feet above the stream.

The train was stopped midway of the bridge long enough to permit passengers to view the wonderful structure and the magnificent forest and mountain scenery on either band. "An ivingat the Thomson House, Kane, at 3 p. the party was joined by Mr. Robert Boy and others, and proceeded by vehicles to the greatest gas wells on the Roy Archer tract. There are five of these wells, and it is within bounds to say that they are the largest and most powerful in point of pressure in the entire region.

The first was opened in 1870, and blew off gas for seven years, but is now secured and controlled. It supplies fuel for an acid mill near by, and has a heavy pressure, with a volume large enough to light and heat half a State. The other four wells are equally powerful and similarly secured. AVhen Mr. Roy and opened the plug and let on the gas for the benefit of the visitors, the noise was simply appalling.

Every one had to keep his ears carefully closed, or the fearful roar would almost certainly have rendered him deaf for the rest of his days. It is impossible to give an adequate idea of the terrific roar of the escaping gas. The force is estimated to be so great as to propel the gas over two miles a minute the entire distance between Kane and Rochester, thus covering a space of some 110 miles in a straight line in less than one hour's time. It is, however, under perfect control, and could be readily conveyed to this city and stored in reservoris, so that the pressure at this end might bo regulated at will. Kane properly claims the most wonderful gits wells that have ever been produced.

As already stated, their power and magnificence cannot be described they must be seen, and heard, to be fully appreciated. After seeing them, not one of the gentlemen present entertained a doubt of their possessing sufficient power to force he gas to Rochester and beyond, supplying all villages and manufacturers en route with fuel and motive power cheaply and abundantly. To be sure, putting down a pipe line 110 miles long would be expensive, but the value to Rochester of such an enterprise is almost incalculable. 'YY'e must keep up with the said a citizen, 'or fall far in the rear." Hot and cold baUisnave recently been added to the facility's of Diffenderfer's barber shop. Call and try one.

At Edinboro hail stones as large as pigeon eggs fell, and in the neighborhood of two thousand window panes were broken. Barns, sheds and fences were demolished, and many cattle were more or less dangerously hurt.

The crops were also seriously damaged. PROHIBITION tfAt'tUS.

On Thursday afternoon last Thomas M'Mahon and R. Rimer became involved in a quarrel on Fraley street, which ended in blows. Constable Matthews opportunely appeared on the scene and took both the combatants into custody, when Iliram Zee tripped and threw him, and, while lying upon the ground, kicked him severely in the side, lie, however, clung to his prisoners, and with the assistance of bystanders whom he called to his assistance, succeeded in freeing himself from Zee's forcible attentions and lodging M'Mahon and Rimer in the lock up. Later in the day he arrested Zee and an individual named John Green, who was drunk and (lit orderly, and consigned them to the borough hostile. Friday morning the boisterous quartette were arraigned before Burgess Smith, who fined Zee for assaulting an ollicer, and the other three $5 each, upon the payment of which they were discharged.

RYAN, W. 31, Richard W. Smith, h'ec'y. THE GLORIOUS 4th Of JULY! LET US CELEBRATE IT LET "REGULAR ASH IGNEAY. There being a universal desire on the part of our people to celebrate the com iug anniversary of the nation's independence, a general meeting of the citizens of Kane and vicinity will be held in Griffith's Hall on Monday evening, Juno 13th, for the purpose of making arrange mcnts for a proper observance of that eventful day.

Let there be a good at. tendance and a free expression of opin ion, Many Citizen's. LOCAL PENCIL.INGS. Oil leases at the Leader office. Meals at all hours at Wyyeil's restaurant.

June has thus far been as showery as April. i The ice cream partor is now open at the bakery. The street sprinkler had an easy time of it last week. It begins to look as though we would celebrate on the Fourth. The pesky house fly will soon commence his petty annoyances.

The air will soon be freighted with the perfume of new mown hay. The organization of a lodge ef Odd Fellows in Port Allegany is talked of. George AVy veil's restaurant, near the depot, is the place to go for a good warm meal. Ladies, when your black parasol shows the effects of wean put a lace cover over it.

Its altitude is 2,500 feet, A late act of Assembly provides that on and after July 1st eastern standard time will be "the sole and uniform standard of time in this Commonwealth." The explosion last night was caused by the biirstingvef an inflated bait of high values, at a store that sells just 20 per cent, dearer than O. B.

Lay does. The high license law requires constables to make a monthly visit to all places in their bailiwick where liquor is Bold, and makp report thereof to the court. An exchange truthfully observes: "Most of us eat to much ami sleep too little; we read to much and think too little we work too much and enjoy too little." The circulation of the Leadkr is increasing. We trust it may continue to do so. We are endeavoring to publish a newsy paper, and are gratified that our efforts are appreciated.

The spirit of improvement is abroad in Kane. Everybody 'seeirls anxious to clean up and make needed repairs. This is us it should be, and we trust our people will not tire of well doing. Children's Day in the M. E.

church will be observed this pear by appropriate services, Sunday, June 12th, commencing at 7:30 p. sharp. The church will be deeorattxl with flowers and evergreens.

Ilenovo Evening San, June 1. There is but one statement in the above that is true, viz: that all the licenses in Kane were granted. The town was without license three days, instead of a week or two The licenses were granted ori Saturday, instead of Tuesday, although not promulgated until Monday morning. All the bars could have been running full blast on Monday (Decoration Day), but they were not opened until Tuesday. We were on the streets Tuesday and Tuesday night, and saw no more evidences of excessive drinking than can be.

The News man is evidently trying to rob Eli Perkins of the title of "the great American liar," which he has so worthily worn, and a few more efforts like the above will entitle him to that unenviable distinction.

Philip Lesser, spent part of last week among friends here. We have an ordinance requiring chick ens, ducks and other fowls to he kept from running at large. AVould it not be a good idea to require a few of our savage bull dogs to be either muzzled or chained up. It has come to that stage already that our citizens are not safe on the public streets in broad daylight. A dog kept for a watch dog should be attending to that business, and not allowed to snap and jump at passers by.

It. seems almost impossible that any person could Vie so ul terly depraved and contemptible as to dig up and carry away the plants that sorrowing children put on and around the grave of their mother; but only last week some one with less principle than tin; vilest of criminals deliberately dug up and stole away plants that had but a few days before been planted over the last resting place of one of our lately deceased and most respected women by her mourning children. We hope the guilty parties will be found, and that they will speedily receive the fullest extent of punishment allowed bv law. A very sad accident occurred here Monday. Local going west was running as an extra, and through some one's fault a collision took place between local and an Erie train going to Johnsonburg.

Considerable damage was done, but the saddest part of it was the misfortune that happened to an old man of 63 years, who was riding betwecntwo freight cars on one of the trains. His legs were caught between the ends of the cars, and he was obliged to remain there until the work train came from SI. Mary's, the train men, having no "jacks," being powerless to relieve the poor man. AVhile in this position he recounted some of his history. After getting him out, he was brought to town as soon as possible, and, upon examination, it was ascertained that the right leg was fractured in three places, while the left leg was so crushed as to need amputation.

Accordingly Drs.AVaid, Eai ley and Bevier performed the operation, cutting the limb oil' midway between the hip and knee; but the poor fellow died a few minutes after the amputation. He said he had a wife and children in Baltimore, but the authorities have up to this writing received no satisfactory reply to any of their telegrams. r. The man who cameo this town for change and rest, happoied to trade at a rival store. He saysthe clerks got all his change, and theipropriotor got the rest.
