hurt at the numbering establishment
Of Commissioner Collins, one day last
week. A large log in rolling struck
him glancing blow upon the head,
bruising il frigntfully. We are inform.

half an inch in the movement of the

in the river on Sunday morning, aud

The Bronson well, of which we
spoke last week, as being ready to
chamber, is now producing one hum

Laughlin we'll was producing but one
hundred barrels laily, and the Emery
well fifty barrels. On! what fail
was there, my countrymen ! Some Of
the smaller wells are said to be in
creasing in their production.
We invite attention to the new
advertisement of Hilhronner & Co.,
which appears in this weeks Issue.
They are selling their winter stock
very low, to make room for large

in good shape unless they advertise in
the REPUBLICAN. Drop in on them
and they will sell nect ssaries which
are warranted to give satisfaction.

Mckay keeps on hand u superior stock
