funny caper on Monday of this week.
Starting at S3} cents it rapidly slid
up to S100, then sagged back to 95c.,
then to SSlc., and finally closed at
90c. Someone must have had box
Of tobies bet that oil would be dollar
before the Fourth, and run it up to
that figure just to win. No one was
seriously injured in the frscas.

Mr.. Albert Trent and family, of
whom we have previously spoken as
having been in the Johnstown disaster,
arrived in this place yesterday morn.
ing and are stopping with Mr.. and
Mrs. Fulton. Mr.. T. returned on the
noon train to his business, he having a
position with an extensive iron firm Of
that place. During the food they oc-
cupied the attic of their house, which,
luckily was not carried away. They
spent an awful night of suspense in
that position, and saw the buildings of
their neighbors foated off like corks,
while large brick blocks were crum.
bled and melted away like heaps of
sand. They were thus confined in
their narrow limits until ten O'Clock
the next day, and while about all
their household effects we're destroyed,
they were still most thankful to escape
as luckily as they did. Mrs. Trent
and children will remain the guests of
her sister during the hot weather.
