A New Enterprise for Tlonests.

Tionesta is soon to a have new en-.
tefprise that will prove a benefit in
more ways than one. Messrs. John
Cobb Il Co., have arrangements com.
pleted for the erection of mill on the
ground below the depot, where Derrick.
son Il Co.'S mill formerly stood. 1t is
the intention Of the new firm to man.
ufacture all kinds of lumber, slaves,
&c, from the timber Of our surround.
ing country. They will make slaves
all the way from IA to 80 inches in
length which they propose to manu-.
facture iuto kegs, frkins, barrels, etc,
for use in various branches Of trade.
A patent dry kiln wall be erected with
u capacity of several thousand slaves,
and which will season lumber in 36
hours, so that orders can be filled on
the shortest notice. The new deal
will furnish employment to at least a
score of men, besides giving those in
this vicinity who have small lots of
white oak and other timber a market
for their wares, at good prices and
spot cash. In connection with this
plan the firm has given Mr.. E. S.
Hoyt contract for manufacturing
shingles on Hunter Run and he will
move his mill forthwith to that loca.
ton.
Altogether this enterprise will be
quite boom for our town, as, instead
of shipping the timber TO other places
to be manufactured into the different
articles above referred to, it will all
be done here and the profits reaped by
home talent, as it were, much of which
will be spent and circulated among
our citizens. We wish the new deal
abundant success, and hope it will
receive the encouragement of all.

FLOOD OF 1885.

The breakup Of February 18th,
1886, will long be remembered by the
inhabitants Of Tionesta and vicinity
as the severest since 1861. The nat.
ural food of 1866 was much more Sc.
we're generally, but not in this place,
and the water at that time was no
higher at this point, nor was it accom-.
panied by ice; it came on moro grad.
ually, thus giving the people time to
prepare for it.
The ice commenced to move in the
river here on Saturday forenoon about
eleven o'clock, and had been running
fully 20 minutes before any danger
was apprehended, and the people
along The river front had come to the
conclusion that the worst was over,
when the ice gorged in the main chan.
mel at the head of Dustin island, half
a mile below town, thus forcing the
entire body of floating ice through the
channel between the head of Dustin
and foot Of Hunter islands. Then the
water came rushing back, and before
people had time to realize what was
going on the whole fat or lower part
of the town was inundated, so that
boats we're easily hoated over five. foot
fences. Ice was piled from 10 to is
feet high along Front St. Every eel.
lar in that part Of the town was flood.
ed, and in many instances furniture
hoated around in the house in water
two and three feet deep. AS conse.
quence all sustained more or less loss,
among whom are Jas. G. Carson, S. S.
Garfield, Mrs. Saul, Isaac Shimp,
VIM. Guiton, Ed. Sanuer, j. r. Chad
wick, Andrew Carr, J. II. Dingmap,
Mrs. DR.. Hunter and family, w. Y.
Siggins, John Hart, Moses Hepler, e.
L. Davis, and others. Most of these
had potatoes, fruit and other eatables
in their cellars that we're either badly
damaged or ruined entirely.
AT EAST HICKORY
We learn a great deal Of damage was
done, the town being nearly all sub.
merged. Several roads of the ap.
proach to the east end of the bridge
were swept away. The railroad track
over West Hickory fats was covered
with ice several feet high, stopping
travel completely during The day. The
ttains we're running regularly on Mon.
day, however.
FOUND AFLoAT.
The river bridge at this place stood
the test like major, although the ice.
breakers were badly chawed up.
One Of the piers of the creek bridge
was damaged somewhat, the ice having
crowded it from below. 1t might be a
good idea, if this performance is going
to occur often, to put ice breakers on
the lower side of the piers.
Lawrence, across the creek lost
nearly all his fence, and many of his
young fruit trees were ruined.
1t was quite common to see a chick.
en- coop floating around with the poul
try perched on top and old chanti.
cleer growing Justify.
Many lost chickens, and some lost
many. Charlie Hinton lost his entire
flock of 2S.
Canfeld's pig struggled nobly for
an hour among the floating ice cakes,
when Shell and j. B. Muse came to
the rescue. Jim. was the hero of the
hour and received the plaudils of the
anxious crowd.
This food furnishes another event
