After recovering from his astonishment he counted the cash and found himself richer by $95. He sought the nearest saloon immediately and went on a stupendous spree. The money is supposed to have been hid there several years ago by a thief who is now serving a term in the penitentiary." Pierce, Thomas of Boston who were looking for a site for a tannery that would employ one hundred men and pay out five thousand dollars a month in cash, told a committee of Port Allegany citizens that if they would give them fif teen acres of land and three hundred thousand feet of hemlock lumber they would locate at Port Allegany. A public meeting was called, and $5,100, the amount required to purchase the land and the lumber, was raised in a short time.

But after the land had been sur veyed and a deed of it prepared, Messrs, Pierce, Thomas Co. well nigh paralyzed the Port Alleganians by stating that they could not accept their offer, owing to their inability to use soft water. The Manufacturers gas company of Bradford having on Sunday made con nection with their wells in the Kane field, the Bradford gas light and heating com pany and the Tarpon or Kendall gas light and heating company on Monday announced a reduction in rates to $1.07 per month for cook stoves, $1.40 per month for heating stoves, 11 cents per month for lights in stores and offices, and 8 cents per month for lights in dwel lings. The Manufacturers company, in order to secure a fair share of business, will have to do as well, or better than the old company, and as a result of the competition the people of Bradford and Tarport will enjoy the cheapest gas in their history a condition of affairs that will be particularly gratifyinsto con sumers.

D.

7 to Nov. 21. Read it. The Warren Minor of Tuesday con tabled the following personal mention: m. Jones, a man from Kane, with hide full of whiskey and a bottle full of the same in his pocket, struck Officer Foster in the face last evening, spent the night in the lockup and this morning was fined $2 and costs by Justice Cornelius.

The residence of Mr. and Mrs.

B. Campbell, on Welsh street, was the scene of an interesting ceremony at 3 m. on Thursday last, being no less an event than the marriage of their daugb ter Naomi to Chalmers C. Jones, a young man well and favorably known in the community. The ceremony was per formed by Rey.

C. W. Foulke in the presence of a large number of relatives, from whom many valuable presents were received. The happy pair left for Ebens burg, on mail east the same day, where Mr. Jones formerly resided.

We wish them a pleasant voyage o'er the tempestuous sea of life. The First Presbyterian church of Kane has giyen a call to the Rev. W. Arney, of the State of Michigan, whose acceptance was announced last Sunday in a letter from the reverend gentleman. Mr.

Arney brings with him a number of testimonials from distinguished citizens of the State from which he comes. He is alluded to as the ablest preacher in Southern Michigan, or indeed the entire State and if we may draw a conclusion from the sermons which we have heard in Kane, we may readily believe that the statement is by no means an extravagant one. He will deliver his introductory sermon as pastor next Sunday. Mr. Arney is induced to come among us because of our pure mountain air and the facilities afforded by the use of natural gas, and in consequence of his wife's desire to reside near her early relatives and friends but chiefly because of the conviction that the peculiar situation of the work in Kane will afford an ample field for the earnest labor to which he has de voted his life and talents, Mrs.

Clearfield is afflicted with diphtheria, scarlet fever and typhoid fever all at the same time. It is estimated that the chestnut crop of Crawford county will not fall below 2,500 bushels this year. Wild pigeons are said to be plenty in Forest county, and for some reason they have been disturbed but little by hunters. Grant Smith, a wealthy farmer of Venango township, Erie county, was ac cidentally shot on Friday night, while hunting dogs who had been chasing his sheep.

Wbiie in full pursuit of the dogs he stumbled and fell over a log, and re ceived the contents of his gun in his body, causing almost instant death. Frank Farley, a brakeman on the middle division of the Philadelphia and Erie railroad, was killed at Driftwood on Thursday last. The engine was switch ing cars, and Farley was thrown off the car on which he was standing by the sudden starting of the engine, and was run over by the cars that had been cut loose from the train. He had been on the middle division but a week. His re mains were taken to DuBois, where his brother resides.

Mr. George Burden had a narrow escape from death, while out hunting, on Saturday last. He does not know, and it probably never will be known, how the gun happened to be discharged, but it is supposed that it slipped from his hand, the hammer striking the log. Mr. Burden was in the woods near Mohan's run, hunting pheasants, and upon arriv ing at the top of a hill stopped to rest.

He was standing on a log holding the gun in his left hand, when it suddenly went off, the contents of one barrel tear' ing his coat and vest open, scraping his breast, and entering his jaw. Some of the shot passed through his jaw, coming out of the cheek and knocking out several teeth. While the wounds are not serious, they are exceedingly painful, and he will be confined to the house for some time. The heavy material of his clothes all probability saved his life. Mr.

Burden has always been extremely care' iui in handling a gun, and his injury is due to one of those accidents which will happen in spite of all precautions. Mary's Gazette. PIANOS H. 15. jVlORRISOISr, Sole Agent for the BICKERING, WEBER, AndallFirst ClassPianos (Uiu uigdUi.

The autumn leaves are here, Oh, dear! My wife will gather them, I fear. She says they'll look "real sweet" when pressed, I suppose she must know best, But I myself am so distressed, I drop a tear. If in any of my books I look. Or my papers they are "took," And shook, A shower of leaves from them will spring, Like robin redbreasts on the wing, Covering upmost everything, Except the cook. I have begged upon my knees The breeze Would not another leaf blow off The trees For It makes me really wilt, To see the house that 1 have built Transformed into a crazy quilt By these Blankity blank blanked Autumn leaves.

Vote early, but not often. Pale Luna is at her best these nights. Diphtheria has made its appearance in Bradford. The oil shut down movement went into effect on Tuesday. Bradford's roller skating rink is to be re opened this week.

Ready cut election stickers printed at the Leader office on short notice, This being the last week before election, it will be a busy one for candidates. We part with October with regret and welcome November with a sigh. The attendance at court at Smethport last week was small, notwithstanding the importance of the cases pending. Tuesday next is election day.

Let everybody vote Republicans, Democrats, Union Laborists and Prohibitionists. November and March are the two most undesirable months in the year. Thus far, however, November has done nobly. The number of teachers in attendance upon the sessions of the teachers' institute at Smethport was 186, instead of 150, as stated in our last issue. J.

T. W. Griffith have decided to close out their large line of dry goods and cents' furnishing goods. Look out for their advertisement next week. The pay roll of the Bradford, Bordell and Kinzua railroad at Bradford is $5,000 a month, or 560,000 a year.

Take that away from the oil metropolis, and she would feel it. A golden eagle that measured 6 feet inches trom tip to tip and weighed 9J pounds, was shot near Smethport, last week, by Samuel Southwiuk, who will have it mounted. The drill of the Citizens gas company Of Kane, while at a depth of 650 feet on Monday, struck a vein of gas of sufficient force to run the boiler. The depth of the well is now 800 feet. Col.

J. J. Carter, general manager of the Bradford, Bordell and Kinzua railroad, says that during the past year $100, 000 have been expended on that road, $50,000 of which was for steel rails. A mortgage for $15,000,000, in favor Carl Schurz and Isaac N. Seligman, trustees, and against the Western New York and Pennsylvania railroad company, was recorded at Smethport this week.

This is the largest mortgage, with one exception, that was ever recorded in M' Kean county. Port Allegany has organized a board of trade with eighty seven charter members. The officers are F. H. Arnold, president J.

Our neighbors over in Smethport are in a peck o' trouble. The situation is thus laconically depicted by the Miner "What are we poor mortals going to do about it, anyway Gas is scarce, wood is hard to get, coal has been an un purchasable luxury in this town along back, and the harbingers of winter are coming thick and fast." The Smethport Muter says: "M' Kean county is destined to become the leading leather producing centre of the country.

Eastern capitalists are beginning to find this an A No. 1 section in which to locate their mammoth tanneries and as a consequence these industries are springing up throughout the county like mushrooms." The oil report of the Bradford Daily Oil News for October shows that during the month there were 113 wells completed, with an output of 2,451 barrels a decrease of 17 wells, but an increase of new production. The dry holes foot up 32. There are 70 rigs up and building, and 123 wells drilling, which is an increase of 16 wells and rigs. The last issue of the Smethport Miner conld well lay claim to being an illustrated sheet.

It contained double column portraits of Hon. Thos. A. Morrison, Joseph M. M'Elroy, Wm.

B. Clarke, P. M. Fuller and James A. M'Kean, Republican nominees for additional law judge, prothonotary, sheriff and commissioner.

The portraits were well executed and life like, The Masorlic banquet at the Thomson House on Friday night, commemorative of the organisation of Kane Lodge, No. 66J Wa8 ft remarkably successful and enjoyable affair. Ab6ut eighty five ladies and gentlemen were present, including a delegation from Wilcox. After ample justice had been done to the good things spread before them, a number of toasts appropriate to the occasion were read and responded to by thr, th h.h. to bom assigned that duty.

About midnight the Comrrfmv di. at a great flurry last Tuesday morning. Mrs. Horace R. King is suffering from a severe attack of inflammatory rheumatism.

Miss Maud Ross, daughter of Senator Ross, of York, is visiting friends and rel atives in town. The borough schools are at present in charge of one of the best corps of teachers ever on duty here. The Ridgway light and heat com' pany have shut off all torches heretofore so brilliantly lighting our borough, it being deemed best to economize the gas for other uses during the cold season. The usual amount of joking and lawlessness was indulged in by Ridgway toughs last Monday evening (Hallowe'en). Besides a number of practical jokes, there was considerable damage done by the tearing down, and more or less breaking up, of signs, steps, etc.

The people of Ridgway should de mand that the rope with which the court house bell is rung be so arranged that any person discovering fire may ring an alarm. At present the lower end of the rope is only to be reached by hunting up the janitor, getting the key and going up to the roof. Tuesday morning about 9 o'clock an alarm of fire was given from Powell's ad' dition, which very soon drew all hands to the rescue. Isaac Nichlin's house was found entirely given over to the flames as far as the upper story was concerned, the goods from the lower floor being saved II. Bennett's dwelling, next house southward, then caught fire, and, burning from the roof down, was entirely con sumed.

Mr. Bennett saved all his house hold goods, and had $700 insurance on his house. Mr. Nichlin had but $400 in surance. The fire was caused by one of Mr.

Nichlin's children (aged 2 years) playing with matches up stairs. The borough hook and ladder truck was on hand. Water was brought in wagons from the nearest available place, which was from Hyde's race, half a mile distant. With a comparatively small quantity of water at the right time, Mr. Bennett's house could easily have been saved.

Another practical pica is hereby raised for water works or a fire engine. A petition for the relief of Mr. Nichlin is in the hands of Wesley Terwilliger, and is being well responded to by the citizens. He sustained the greater loss, and being an industrious and good citizen, is enti tled to the people's help. Alert.

The Bradford Daili Oil Xeus of Thurs day last says "Some of the difficulties that have beset the Philadelphia refining firm of Logan, Emery Weaver in the matter of procuring oil tank cars from the Pennsylvania railroad have been given to the readers of The Daily Oil Xews. An important and interesting development of the translation question is the appearance of this firm before the courts of justice to demand recompense for the injury to their business caused by the action of the great railroad of this Commonwealth in dealing with an independent refiner. Remonstrances and appeals having proved of no avail, the last resort has been taken.

Logan, Emery Weaver have brought suit in the M'Kean county courts against the Pennsylvania railroad for rebates and drawbacks in the sum of $321,000, being treble damages on a claim of $107,000. The declaration, a voluminous document too large to go into an ordinary pigeon hole, would no doubt make interesting reading for the public. The defendant will be served in due time at the company's Philadelphia office. The plaintiffs are represented by Messrs. Lee, Hastings Criswell, Elliot, Jack Koberts and Kogpf Sherman For celery and Kane Bakery.
