plenty Of everything that the ground
can produce.
Recently Messrs. German, Setley

caught fire and burned down, together
with everything near by.
We learn that Mrs. H. Coleman

by runaway horse, which she was
driving in that vicinity on Sunday
last. We were unable to learn the
extent of the lady's injuries, or full
particulars of the accident.
The Independent Gas Co, of
Titusville, have a rig mp for we'll on

Corb's farm. BLY, Bros. are the con.
tractors, and the drill will likely start
this week. Gas is what the company
is after.

day morning.
Hon. Lucius Rogers of the Nc.
Kean county Miner, announces him.
self as a candidate for the Republican
nomination for Assembly. That coun.
