TiOnesta's Superior Advantages as
Seen by n Wide-Awake Nelghbor.


The Oil City Blizzard, which al.
ways recognizes a good thing when
it sees it, gives Tionesta boom as a
resort for those seeking healthy re.
creation. The REPUBLICAN, has 10
times past called attention to this
feature of our beautifully situated
town, but stories Of this kind seem to
have greater weight when coming
from outside or disinterested sources
The Blizzard strikes the keynote in
the following article, and we hope
some Of our citizens may act on its
suggestion to throw out the proper
inducements to attract pleasure seek.
ers to our borders:
For twenty years or more the
writer has occasionally cast his OPP
tics on a spot which is better adapted
for a summer resort than many
places that have become famous
through thousands visiting them dur
ing the bot summer months of the
year. The spot referred to is Tio.
nesta, situated about twenty miles
above Oil City, The town is located
in a valley and the surrounding hills
and valleys are as picturesque 10 the
summer as any of the scenes in Sunny
lilly. The Allegheny river winds
through the place and Tionesta
Creek, along which the beauties of
nature are simply charming, empties
into the river at that point Both
bodies OF water contain thousands
of fish of the gamy order, such as
bass, pike, salmon, pickerel, ETC., and
that fact alone ought to induce many
to locate there while the thermometer
ranges near the 100 degree mark.
Water in large quantities can be
obtained from springs located on the
surrounding hill, and some of them
produce sulphur water, 80 that the
tastes of all who drink that fluid can
be satisfied. Situated a short dis.
tance below the town is good sized
island, which could be converted in.
to q park or used as a place for ath.
letic sports. Game of all kinds
abound 10 the forests thereabouts- -
gray squirrels, birds Of various de.
scriptions, rabbits, deer, catamouDts,
and anyone possessed with sufficient
sand and a trusty rife can once in a
while track bear and have a feast
over its handsome carcass. Within
hailing distance of the town are q
dozen or more valleys, down each OF
which ripples babling brook, where
lovers of trout fishing could find any
amount of pleasure. There is no
reason why the citizens of Tionesta
should not take the. matter 10 hand
aud throw out inducements to attract
to their pleasant little village hun
dreds, yea thousands, who have hith
erto been compelled to spend theil
vacations 10 Saratoga, Alaska, South
America, Turkey and Oil City, in or
der to keep cool and 6nd enjoyment
