News From Gushsr City.

Special TO the REPUBLICAN.
Thinking that the many readers OF
the REPUBLICAN will be pleased to
hear from Gusher City, We have con.
sented to write up the doings of the
inhabitants of the City in the great
forest. Though we be isolated and
only connected with the outside world
by Dan Kelly's stage line, yet we pos
sess that intelligence, beuevolence and
enterprise sospeculiar to the people OF
the oil region.
AS an oil field, Howe township
comes in for a large share, a great
quantity of oil having been produced
and work still goes on. The new de.
velopments at Crisman's mill on the
Tionesta, and the recent strike at the
mouth of Fools Greek shows that the
field is not exhausted by a considera.
BILE; but indicates that a new belt,
rich with oil, is found. The we'll just
finished, about two miles further up
the creek, and owned by Agnew, Pro-
per and Others, demonstrates to a
surety that large second sand field
is being opened. The Agnew & Pro.
per we'll has one hundred feet Of good
sand with a fair show of oil. 1t is
the opinion of experienced operators
and others that it will produce 100
barrels per day when shot. We prs-
diet that in go days this field will be
the centre of attraction and scene oi
great activity.

Knew It Was Loaded.

A Gusher City, Forest county, cor.
respondence to the Warren Mirror OF
last Saturday gives the following cor
rect account of a shooting accident OF
which We made brief mention last
week
A very serious shooting accident
occurred at Anchor City, a half mile
distant from this place. On the first
day Of This week party of five had
completed arrangements for a hunt,
all heavily armed with Winchester ri.
aes. When it was nearly daylight q
start was made. Mr.. Logue stepped
out of his door and remarked to Mr..
ellison, who was seated on a bench,
that his gun was cooked. ellison at.
tempted to lower the hammer and at
that instant Mr.. Irvine Kitliuger,
who was seated on log back and to
the left of ellison about six feet
stepped in range of the weapon when
it was discharged. Mr.. Kitlinger re.
treated to the log and it was apparent
to all that he had received the charge.
He was carried to his residence, about
ten rods distant. DIR. Pryor was dis.
patched for and arrived from Gar.
field about three hours later. In the
meantime Mr.. Mcbride, a medical
student, was very efficient in minister.
ing to the comfort of the injured man.
The following diagnosis of Kitlinger
will be found nearly correct. The
ball, which was 1915 Winchester,
took effect about 81 inches below the
knee of the right leg, striking the
Tibia bone and carrying part Of it
away, then passed through the Gas
troonemis and SOlens mucles; lacerat
ing them and other members of the
calf of the leg in a shocking manner
The bullet then passed through the
left leg, inAicting an ugly wound in
the calf but doing no injury TO the
boue. DIR. Pryor dressed the wounds
and rendered the sufferer as comforta.
BILE as possible. His opinion is that
Kitlinger will get along nicely, but on
