Death and Burial ofD. j. Healy.

A few more facts concerning the
lamented death of D. J. Healy a Ridg-
way boy in Texas, may De CLEANED
from the annexed letter, written by G.
w. Kouns, Train Master of The In
ternational and Great Northern r. r..
Palestine, Tex July II, 1882
JOHN HEALY,
RIDGwAY, PA.
1ty Dear Sir:
Following my telegram of the 18th in
accordance with the memorandum re-
quest found upon the body of your son
this is sent to acquaint you with the
particulars of the sad event. Daniel
had lately been promoted to the Office
of Chief Train Dispatcher at Taylor,
and on Tuesday evening at S:20 p. NJ.
he was shot down in his office by Con-
ductor w. T. Cook whom he had tenn
porarily suspended by reason of Cook
being in liquor and unfit for service.
In view of the fact that Mr.. Healy had
but few hours previous gave himself
trouble to do the man kindness, and
during the passage of a few words, inn
mediately prior to the shooting carried
himself quiet and gentlemanly, the
deed becomes parNcularly atrocious
and L cannot express the feeling of
horror and indignation among every
class of people on the road, and outside.
Superintendent Herrin, j. Gooch,
Esq, and myself,left here by special
train Immediately upon the receipt Of
terrible news. Arriving there early
Wednesday morning, Cook had
been captured. Messrs. Harm and
Gooch remained to push the case with
every energy, while I returned here
with the remains, arriving at 0
o'clock the same evening, and
the casket was carried to the residence
of Mrs. N S. Brooks, who has al
ways been almost Il mother, as we'll as
a friend to him, and to others of us
far from home. The home was most
beautifully decorated with choicest
flowers, while upon the casket crosses,
wreathes, and bouquets-wet with the
tears of many friends, s,-were in great
profusioh. The funeral occurred at
p. NJ, yesterday Q3th). The remains
were followed to the cemetery by
lurge number of his friends and ac-
quaintances in carriages, on horseback,
and on foot. Eight men who had pre-
viously served with him acted as pail
bearers. In Mr.. Healy's papers there
was one requesting, in case of sudden
death to be buried convenient to the
place. Also concerning the disposi-
ton Of his effects and property. These
will be most carefully complied with.
AS John your otherson will soon come
here, presume he can on his return
give you a better understanding Of
them than l can at present writing.
Wishing you every word Of comfort,
and assuring you of the sincere sympa.
thy of many friends as well as my
own. 1 am, my dear sir,
Your obedient servant,

George Cummings Sad Fate.
Warren Ledger.

Last Tuesday evening, at about Z
o'clock, as the Clarendon Express was
making its wayward turns toward
Warren, and when within about four
miles of the city, a Mr. George Cum
mings, a teamster, was struck by the
engine while driving over the track,
and almost instantly kiled-but who
lived three hours, suffering most terri
bly,. AT the time of the accident, he was
sitting in the hind end of his wagon,
just above the axle, and was
not apparently aware of the
fast approaching train, and when
almost fairly over the track, the groan-
ing and creaking engine came down
around the bend in the road-after
giving the sharp shrieking warning
from the whistle, but to late-and
struck the man and the hind-end of
the wagon, throwing him a distance
of some twelve feet. His right leg,
below the knee was entirely cut Off;
and his head was mashed in a most
frightful condition to behold and it is
thought, received serious internal in
juries. He was brought to this city on
the same train and carried into the
depot where he died at 10 O'clock. An
inquest was held over the remains,
Mr.. Roman Schnur acting coroner, and
five jurymen, bringing in a verdict of
accidental death as only himself Cum
mings) was to Blame, as the general
warning was sounded by the engineer
before making the turn. Cummings
home is in Cenesee, N. Y. and he is a
man 50 years Of age. His father was tel
egraphed of his sons sad fate, but could
notget through, The remains were
beautifully laid in a neat casket and
sent to Genesee Wednesday morning,
where the funeral will take place, and
the body laid away to its long rest. He
leaves a wife to mourn over his sad
death, who has only been his better-half
for six short months, and in her be-
reavement of sorrow she has the deep
sympathy of all.

Victory Within Cameron's GRASP.
New York Times.


The acceptance of any one of the
propositions submitted by the Cooper
committee would leave the way still
open for Beavers candidacy, and
thereby for the triumph of Senator
Cameron on the one point upon which
his mind is fixed. He and all his forces
would go into the canvass for his re-
nomination, whetheritw was to be effect
ed in the primary meeting or a new
Convention, with all their energies bent
upon making Beaver candidate for Gov
ernor. Other candidates would be sac
rif1ccd if necessary, even Independent
candidates for other places on the
ticket might be accepted if deeDned ad-
Visable, but the nomination of Beaver
would be the supreme object of Gamer
on's efforts. The chances are ten TO one
that with all the resources at his com.
mand for managing, bargaining, and
manipulating he would accomplish
that object. This would in effect leave
the victory with him, and the Inde-
pendents would be discomtited in their
main purpose of getting him out of the
position ola nominating power for the
party.

Progress of New Oil Wells.

Bradford, July IA report was cir
culated to-day that the original Cherry
Grove well, the Mystery, had ceased,
but reliable information from gentle
men who visited the well this after
noon is to the effect that the statement
is untrue, as they saw it flow late this
afternoon. The Union Oil Company's
No. 2, on lot GAG, was drilled into the
sand this morning. 1t bids fair to
make 1000 barrels in the first twenty
four hours. Charles Cramer sold his
well on 685 to day to A. ]. Caldron
and J. D. Wolfe for s2l 900 1t is con-
sidered low price since the well only
started on Tuesday, and gagged 1000
barrels during the first twenty four
hours,

The Adrurate,
New Drug Store.

"A. G. Craig's New Drug Store is
now in good working order, various
new improvements have been made
lately, SPLENDID illuminated mortar
sign has been added to the attractions.
Mr.. j. r. Baird gentleman well
known to the people of Ridgway and
surrounding country as a Druggist
Pharmacist hos been engaged as an
assistant.
The patrons of the "New Drug
Store" can always have the satisfaction
of being served by experienced COM
Founders, which is a matter of great
importance in business requiring so
much skill, experience and caution as
the handling of medicines. No better
illustration is needed than the many
deaths occurring yearly from the mis-
takes of careless, incompetent and uu-
principled vendors of drugs. With q
fine assortment ofJresh pure goods, at
popular prices, the people may rest
assured we will keep up with the times
Htlu be content with nothing less than
being in the front rank of first class
Drug Stores.

Ridgway Boys in the New Oil Field,

We have received two letters from
the boys in the new oil field, one un-
der date of July I'd and the other under
date of July 9th. Owing to no issue of
THE ADVOCATE on the Fourth the
first one was not printed, and the one
of the 9th was overlooked last week.
A synopsis of both letters follows:
The letters are dated at Farnsworth.
They arrived at Sheffield Monday,
June 26, and after taking supper at
the Forest house walked q mile to get
bed. On Tuesday morning the start
was made for Tarnsworth in a hack,
when within five miles of the pla ce
the wagon broke down, and they were
obliged to take "shank's horses'' the
rest of the way. Looking around I'M
til noon they struck job and worked
until supper time. Af&er supper they
went to bed on the soft side of hem.
lock board. Wednesday morning
they got up trifle sore but happy.
and after working all day slept on the
same old board at night. Thursday
worked all day and slept at night on
II pile of shavings in the woods, Fri
day it rained all day and but little
work was done, at night a 25 cent
bundle of straw was bought, and a
sound sleep had under the caves of a
mans shanty. Saturday they worked
all day and at night went up to go to
bed and found that some one had
stolen their straw, SO that they were
obliged to look for other quarters for
the night, they finally got inside of a
couple of shanties for the night.
About 450 teams come here every
day with loads of lumber or well sup
plies. This is Sunday but four or five
buildings are going up, and teams are
coming as usual with their loads. We
have plenty to eat here but no place to
sleep for half the crowd. About $50
buildings are under way or completed
here at present. Gaifeld is about a
mile from here but they are not doing
as much building there as here, we go
up there every night to get the news
at the jamestown house.
Since writing the above we have
sided up the caves and made bed
room and bed oft of hemlock
boughs, b. l.. w.
Farnsworth, July 8.
We still occupy the caves. The
Fourth passed off in good shape, and
it rained all day, but we had nothing
to drink eXceptiDga little beer. We
worked quarter of day and it took
the rest of the day t.. dry our clothes.
1t has rained five days this week. Fri
day night we had a couple of visitors
and gave them the spare room under
the caves Saturday two more came
and at night we had five visitors so
we had to sleep three in bed. Our
bed room is 81 feet wide, 8 feet long,
and feet high. One of the visitors
was so long that he got his boot full of
water last night. The place to buy
clothing is at A. S, Ross as there was
pair of pants here yesterday with
two different kinds of cloth in them.
One of our visitors got up in the morn
ing to see what time it was by the
town clock but saw nothing but an
oil derrick. Everybody is working
to-day but your humble servant. The
saw and hammer is going in every
direction. The excitement still con-
crease. Henlock lumber is worth
$50 a thousand. Some more some
other time. b. l.. w.

independents Could Net Have Done
Otherwise.
New York Tribune.

New OfK 1flOune.
The Pennsylvania independents
have decided to reject all the PROPOSE
tions for harmony submitted by the
Cameron State COMMITTEE, and we are
unable to see how they could have
done otherwise. AS The Iribune has
steadily maintained, the Independ-
ents are justified in rejecting all COM
promises which aim at the perpetual
ton of Bossism. The propositions Of
the Cameron Committee merely in
vited the Independents to enter IA con-
test to see whether they could beat
the machine in packing State Con-
vention. They do not pretend to
be strong enough to do anything
of the kind. They are fighting to
overthrow the machine first, and thus
give the party chance to control it.
self They are in Il position now where
they believe they can smash the ma
chine at the cost of a temporary defeat
of the party, and they think heresult
will justify the means. Mr.. Cameron S
committee could save the party by
sacrificing him, but they have declined
to do this. 1t must he evident TO them
now that they cannot save him and
the party at the same time by treating
the independents as political inbe-

Refined Oil

Referring to the refined market the
New York Oil and P;.iht Review saws:
Refined does notseem to pick up much
in demand, Notwithstanding reduce
ton in price made during the week by
retiners. Every one seems to have ali
the oil he wants, aud prefers to trust
the chances of being caught with Il
short stock when prices COUP, to carry
ing heavily ON the hope that they will
advance materially at all early day.
Saturday last was Il remarkable day for
petroleum clearances, over 1900, 900
gallons of refined and petroleum pro
ducts being cleared on that day.
The shipments of the past week, not
withstanding there We're two holidays,
were the largest that we have any re-
cord of in the same length of time.
Germany alone took over 100000 gal
Ions of refined. These exports were
chiefly on orders maturing July l.
Crude, in shipping order, and naphtha
are still in very light demand and
quoted lower.

An observant exchange says that
a striking resemblance of cucumber
bugs to sweethearts and lovers may
he found in their dislike of onions.
When the cucumber vines begins to
appear, take few tops of your young
onions and lay them about the vines.
The result will be that in less than
half an hour the bugs will be gone
and they will stay away as long as
the onions are kept there. 1t tax es
their breath strong. 1t works like a
charm in the case of both bugs and
lovers,

Charters were granted at the
State Department last Tuesday for
two more railroads to run through
Forest county. One is to the Clarion
and the Tionesta Railroad Company,
which is authorized to build a road
fifty miles long, from Eagle Rock,
Venango county, to Fairmount, Clar-
ion county, going through portions of
this county. j. w. Jones, of Phil
adelphia, is President. The other
proposed road is Gated the Garfield
and Tionesta Railroad Company,
which proposes to build narrow
gague road from Garfield, Warren
county, to Tionesta, a distance of
twenty eight miles. Asahel n. Cole,
of Wellsville, n. Y, is the President
of this road. We hope these roads
Will be built, and not be mere paper
railways. One thing is sure, that un-
less some of these roadsa constructed
soon, the farmers in some parts of our
county will have to hunt up other
localities in which to farm. Their
farms are now covered with stakes
planted in the ground, telling the
story that only forty-seven different
sets Of engeneers have trod over the
territory and located forty seven diff
ferent railroads, Lately we heard of
farmer who has seven old hens with
chickens, and he tied each hen to a
separate railroGd stake in his yard,
and each stake represented different
railroad company. That would be Il
good place to build union depot
