ing yesterday large number we're
brought out from Nebraska, and an
unexpected rise of several inches in
the river last night will let most of
them out for the lower market to day.

ence meeting at Fredonia, N. Y.

ter. During a trout fishing excursion
in-the upper end of the county last
spring Mr.. Rumberger lost sheath

Church, will be held 10 Franklin, be.
ginning Wednesday, Sept. 26, and
continuing until the following Mon.

present on the occasion Of the first
Free Methodist campmeetiDg held
here nearly 10 years ago, will be pres

four Districts Bradford, Oil City,
New Castle and Pittsburg.
The great encampment of the G.
A. r. now in progress in Pittsburg is
a booming success if newspaper re.
ports may be relied on. The "old
boys" have full possession of the city,
which is doing the grand thing in the
way of entertainment. We wouldn't
begin to attempt to name all who are
in attendance from here, for the nun
Der is large, some of the veteran;
having their wives with them. May
they have grand time at this, tC
many, the last great event of the
kind they will enjoy in each others
society.

long distances with your grist. Thes
people can do as we'll by you as an

[ The announcement that rain 10
. terfered with the carrying out of an
project, seems strange, in the light c
the recent great dry spell, but sue
was the case with two games of bas
o ball which the Tionesta nine ha
scheduled for Saturday and Monda
of the past week On Saturday tt
Tidioute team came down, but gam
y, only just begun, when a good dash {
rain stopped proceedings. On Nor
day our boys went up to Marienvill,
but the almost incessant rain made
10 impossible to play. The MarienvilI
70 boys are booked for game here ne1
D. Saturday, and doubtless our base ba
Z enthusiasts will be treated to sou
good sport in that line.
