The Tionesta's and Hickory's
will cross bats on the grounds Of the
latter next Saturday, in a return game
for that in which Tionesta was so bad.
ly lambasted before the Fourth. We
hope our boys will "play ball" this
time, and bring home at least small
sprig of the laurel which the Hickory
boys have heretofore taken from them.

Although this is one of the great.
est hay years on record, it is remarka-
BILE for the almost total failure of the
fruit crop. An examination of hun.
dreds of orchards in this section will
not reveal more than few trees bear
ing, and even in such cases the apples
are few. Cherries we're not plentiful
and there will be no peaches. - Clarion
JackSonian. The same can be said of
all this section of the country.
Notice is given by Chairman Har.
Ian that the Road Commission Of
Pennsylvania will meet August z, at
the Hotel Brunswick, Titusville, in
stead Of at Meadville, as previously
announced. The object Of the meet.
ing is that the Commission may ascer.
tain the views of all interested in the
matter of roads, road improvement
and maintenance. 1t is hoped and ex
pected that the Counties of Crawford,
Warren, Venango and Forest will be
we'll represented at the meeting.
AT argument court yesterday a
large petition was presented by Attor
ney Davis asking that view be
granted for the opening of road from
Frost's Station, on the narrow guage
railroad, to the mouth of Blue Jay, at
Foxes, in Howe township. The road
will be about four miles in length,
where now it is necessary to travel
twenty miles or more to reach these
points. The petition was granted,
and F. F. Whittekin, 7. B. Cobb and
j. W. Solley we're appointed viewers.
-"Lightning loves hemlock" and
if you are in a wood during a thunder
storm make for the beech tree as soon
as possible. Don't stand under the
hemlock. r. Exchange. The popular
idea that lightning will not strike q
beech tree is erroneous. Not many
years ago an old and reliable woods
man, who had been taught this idea
from his youth, found in one of hi:
rambles through the forest no less than
three beech trees that had been sliv.
cred by electricity, and he was cured
of his notions.
Attention is directed to the new
card of S. S. Garfield, Liveryman
which appears in this issue. Mr.. Can
field coudcts the largest and most com
plete livery our town has ever boasted
of, and he spares no pains to keep VI
his supply of good turnouts, adding tc
his stock almost daily. He never
allows a customer to go away disap'
pointed, his charges are reasonable
aud he studses to please. Parties from
a distance can order rigs by Telegram
with the assurance that their wants
will be promptly met.
j. L. Grandin, of Tidioute, haI
taken up the cudgel in favor of {
wholesome observance of the law pro
hibiting the unlawful use of seines snC
explosives for the purpose of killing
fish, and has caused notices to be post
; ed between this place and IrvinetoI
offering S25 reward for information
that will lead to the conviction o
parties engaged in this shameful ant
outrageous practice. We second Mr.
Grandin's motion, and call on all goo,
citizens, who would dislike to see ou
noble game fish entirely destroyed, t.
enlist in the work of ferreting out an,
Furnishing offenders. The man VIII
would engage in such bloOdthirst
8 work deserves no sympathy and shoul
q he made TO suffer the extremest penal
