From a communication received
from the Secretary of the Hayes and
Wheeler Club, of Fagundas, we have
the following particulars of that or
ganization; ~
The Republicans of Fagundas met
at their hall on Tuesday evening, Sept.
II, 1876, and organized u Hayes and
Wheeler Club. The meeting was call
ed to order by Peter Berry, and the
following officers were chosen Presi-
dent, Royal Z. Scott; Vice Presidents,
Isaac Jones, j. S. Ramsey; Secretary,
Henry Wilkins; Corresponding Sec'y,
G. 9. Moriau Treasurer, H. T. Mo.
ran.
At the time of writing the above, on
Wednesday last, there were forty,six
members enrolled, and the number is
probably largely increased by this
time. A Hayes and Wheeler pole,
one hundred feet high, was raised at
FagunJas yesterday, and a Republican
meeting, to be addressed by Gen. II.
Allen, and w. M. Lindsey, Esq, of
Warren, Chas. w. Mackey, Esq, of
Franklin, r. G. Beach. Esq, of Tidi-
QUITE, and others. we go to press too
early to give report of this meeting,
but have no doubt that it was a sue
cess in every particular.
The rains Of the past few days
raised the river sufficiently so that
quite an amount of lumber was run
out, and few Alleghenies have gone
down the river from here and some
from above. A number of Derickson
d Co.'s stave bolts were run down the
creek, and the mill will start up soon.
A few cords were lost, but not near as
many as was first feared. One of
Dithridge's pieces went ahoat, from
some carelessness in tying it. We pre-
sumo it was caught below. The mon
ey that comes back from this rise Will
not cause a resumption of the flush
times known here when lumber sold at
good figures.
The Associated Press dispatches
of yesterday tell of another riot, this
time in South Carolina, in which, as
usual, the negroes were theaggressors.
The Associated Press agent, however,
gives the list of killed and wounded
which is as follows: Six negroes kill
ed and one white man wounded. The
white man probably bumped his head
against tree While running after an
aggressive negro.

tween sides chosen by Messrs. J. E.
Wenk and II. Foreman. The woods
for miles around resounded with mus

Tioncsta House, where supper was also
served. Wenk's side was victorious, as

his game was all red-squirrels but one.
A red-squirrel counted one.
John Wyant hunted with an old
1912 musket, which was plowed up on
Ferd. Wenk's farm last summer He
attributes to this gun the honor Of
winning the hunt for his side.
Treasurer Setley, with his wooden
leg, travelled over more ground during
the day than any man in the hunt, and
came in at night as fresh as daisy,
with a good appetite.
Pete Conver was on hands at sup
per time If he can't hunt he can eat.
Jake Smearbaugh, being on the los
ing side, proposed paying for our sup
per, He reported afterward that the
landlord charged him halfdollar
extra for what we ate.
Dan Aguew went out on horseback;
he only brought in count of three,
but then he said he didn't get tired.
About four hundred red squirrels
bit the dust on Saturday.
Nearly every man in the hunt was
on Oldtown Flats during the day.
Kelly's coru will be comparatively
safe this fall and winter.
Not an accident happened, and the
best of feeling prevailed during the
day and evening.
There were eleven old army mus.
kets carried by those who participated
in the hunt. The smooth bores make
excellent shot.guns.
Sam. Haslet shot the only owl which
was brought in.
Taylor Dale luggcd home the only
woodcock counted. Ferd. Wenk shot
one, pSt lost it before he got in.
John Huli..ns brought in bluejay
which was nearly mistaken for king
fisher, which would have made a diff
ference of two in the count.
Andy Weller shot crow; the only
one brought in. He had a good string,
but cat got away with part of his
game.
Two gray squirrels and one pigeon
were brought in and counted.
Not kingfsher, hawk, woodchuck,
coon or fox, all Of which were on the
list, were captured.
The supper, at the Tionosta House
was . good, square article, we'll gotten
up, plenty Of it, and was put away
with cv v6usiasm by the hungry hunt
ers.
There wasn't man out on either
side hut says he could improve ON his
score another time. Perhaps it would
be well TO repeat the dose.
