MILESTONE NOTES.

Milestone, Elk County Pa. Sept. IL, '76
HENRY A. PARSONS, JR.-Editor
of the ADVOCATES
noticed in your paper that you desire
local news from the different portions
of the county, take the present op-
portunity to give you few notes from
Milestone.
The shingle Mill of VIM. Crispen,
Darrah, & Moores, was burnt on
Saturday, the 9th, about 4 o'clock.
Loss about SO, 800, the mill is situated
about two miles north of the mouth of
Milestone creek land has been running
for the last two months at an average
of about sixteen thousand shingles
per day, running only in daylight.
The shingle mill was good one and
was built only last winter, but like
most all steam mills was of short
duration. Mr.. Dayley, the sawyer,
shut the mill down at noon, on Satur-
day, and all of the hands and himself
! left the mill. After dinner there were
no signs of fire about the mill only the
fire ut the waste pile some five or six
rods distant. About four o'clock Mr..
Dayley, and Samuel Brandon, n
teamster, went to the mill and found
| it enveloped in flames, and too far
gone to do anything with it, but they
succeeded i'll saving all the shingles
that were at the mill with the excep-
| ton of about fifty thousand. The
mill was insured for 81, 1000 about one
half the loss. 1t will probably be re-
built but will throw eight men out OF
employment for some time.
We have had a very dry fall in this
section of the county, but lately have
been blessed with several small
showers.
The oats. and potatoe crops, will not
be over one-half of the former yield.
Upon Sunday we had very mod
crate rain, but how fur it extended we
do not know, but hope it VII extend
far enough to bring rise in the river
rs there is a considerable amount OF
timber now RATED in awaiting its COM
ing, which would financially retrieve
Il great many and brighten business
through this section of tke country.
We have had considerable sickness
i'll this locality. The disease being
diphtheria, and mostly among the
children. Mr.. Harrison Cats buried
one Of his children on the 9Th inst,
the other two are recovering.
Political items are scarce, and but
little is said. The citizens of Claring-
ton formed Hayes & Wheeler Club
Saturday night, and got thirty mem
bers, and some who were formerly
Democrats but are tired of New York
reform.

The result has shown that all the
talk we have heard lately, or read in
print, of the unpopularity of Gov. Rice
and the probabilities OF his defeat in
the Convention, had no substantial
foundation, that his popularity with
the party is unimpaired, and that he
will carry as many votes, with a
single cAccpuoiI, as any man in the
pargy.-BOSton Her0id.
a Hayes and Wheeler pole two hundred
and fifty feet long was be ing raised at Lau.
caster, Ohio, cn Saturday evening, about
five O'Clock, and when The top had reached
an elevation Of about one hundred feet the
rope broke and one Of the derricks fell.
Charley Dnkle, Geo. Fink, Chas Huffman
and Geo. Martin were injured, and the first
three named have since died. Martin es
caped with bfokcr leg. The greatest ex-

/ LETTER FROM EARLEY.
"Wheat Il Chess"

Farley, Elk Co. Pa, Sept. llth, 1876.
Mr.. EDITOR,-Strange as it may
seem, to the minds of some thinking
men, it is nevertheless fact that un
der certain circumstances chess is pro-
duced from wheat, !. c. the nature. of
the wheat by some means is changed,
so as to produce stalk of chess.
Now, [ know this to be fact. On
one occasion / sowed wheat quite late
in the fall, a portion of the field was
wet, and the wheat on that portion
did not mature well, and there was
good many stalks left on the ground,
some of which lay there all the year.
The following year, after, l went
through the lot, and noticing stalks of
chess, [ took pains, as it happened, to
trace the roots of the chess TO the old
wheat head of the former year, which
was still intact, showing plainly that
the wheat had sprouted while remain
ing in the chalf, upon or in the wheat
head, and d6Ove ground and where it
stood a good chance to get rather rash
treatment from exposure to heat and
cold, during the sprouting process,
which no doubt, to some extent,
would change its nature. Now | claim
that this is no more miracle" than
is Progression" or "IdiOcy" with the
offspring of an intellectual "paren-
tage." ] claim that there is some diff
ference in the nature of wheat that is
"fully matured" and that that is
"cut down. while in the milk.
Above said wheat heads were not ma
tured. Respt. &C., ENOS HAYS.
1t is said that Mr.. Tilden's physical
condition is about as uncertain as thai
of Mr.. Seymour, and it is notorious thai
the work of the campaign has been in
trusted mainly to the Literary
Bureau" in Liberty street. The gen
tlemen in charge of that establishment
are Mr.. w. S. Andrews, the son OF MI
Stephen Pearl Andrews, better known
as the "Pantarch," and Mr.. Pelton,
! nephew of Governor Tilden.-Neu

General Ben. Harrison addressed

we Is, near Evansville, Ind, He
spoke for an hour, making an able and
Comprehensive speech touching briefly
about all the questions in issue be.
tween the parties His review of Til
den's record was admirable, and made
a fine impression. General John NJ.
Harlem made a brief speech at the salt
wells, and last night addressed a crowd
of 3, 900 at the wigwam, in one of the
ablest and most telling speeches of the
campaign. A thousand people
crowded the streets unable to get in
the hall, which seats 20OO. 1t was a
field day fOl the Republican party.
For once Ex-Governor Seymour, known
as the great American decliner, has mus
tered up sufficient courage to stick by his
word and refuse to accept the Saratoga
nomination. The report Of his acceptance
proves TO have been premature, and was
doubtless sent out with the expectat ton that
he would finally yield, as he had always done
heretofore. The sage Of Utica, however,
lnanifests dogged determination to remain
in private life, much to the CONSERVATION
of the Democracy. If ne cannot be coaxed
into accepting the nomination, the State
Committee will be called upon to choose a
candidate, as the convention mas adjourned.
We cannot but admire the Spartan courage
of the Bourbon statesman in sticking to his
word for once, though we confess to a fear
that at the last moment he will yield and ac-
cept the bauble. The New York Democracy
have been thrown into spasms by the
nomination of Morgan, and every sign now
points to a Republic, IN triumph in Novem-
Der. The Tilden load is heavy one to
carry; but with Seymour it was increased
tenfOld. Republicans heartily regret that
Seymour is afraid to face the music, as with
him on the course their victory would have
been more overwhelming. Who will be
taken up in the event of his final refusal {
come out, cannot be conjeotured at present,
as the Democracy are so'demoralized that
they have no fixed plans, and are drifting
about like vessel at sea without rudder.
