J. NJ. Gufley has struck it rich again.
lie hasn't been elected Senator from this
State, by any means, but has carried Tex
AS all right we guess. Ifreports are cor
rect the company of which he is the main
man has just brought in an oil well in
Jefferson county, that State, which was at
lastaccounts flowing at a q, 900 barrel rate.
This bea.s all records and il Mr.. Guhey
keeps up this speed he'll soon be "Gen-
erar' instead of"Colonel."
Thomas Harrison Morgan, respect
ed citizen of Emlenton, died at his home
at that place on Wednesday last ofdropsy
after an illness lasting for some time,
He was brother ofour townsmen, James
II. and William Morgan, and for several
years was a resident of Tionesta and vi
clnitys where he is well and fayorably re-
memperod by many Of our older citizens.
He was a veteran of the civil war, being
a member Of Company G, Fifty-siXth
Pennsylvania infantry, from which he
was honorably discharged on January /,
1866. lie was twice married and is sur
viyed by his second wife, and three chill
dren of his first marrage-Elmer Of
Chicora Harry Of Apollo, and Pearl Of
Salina. Services in his memory were
conducted Friday afternoon. Burial was
made in the Emlenton cemetery.
A talking machine that talks affords
much amusement and comfort in any
family or social gathering ofan evening,
but the grating, screeching things one
hears so much nowadays are enough to
set your nerves on end. The best mach
inc extant day is sold by J. II. Farrell,
the enterprisiug news dealer, of Oil City,
whose ad will be found in this issne of the
REPUBLICAN. Every word is loud and
distinct, easily heard in any room or
large hall, and every note Of music is as
clear and musical as though produced by
the original. For small graphophone,
quite inexpensive, it is a real wonder and
as far ahead Of the average machine as
days ahead of night. When in Oil City
stop in at Mr.. Farrell's, on the corner
near the depot, and have him start the
little talker. You'll scarcely believe
your own ears. He has them in price all
the way from s. up, and there is not a
poor one in the lot. Every machine
guaranteed TO render satisfaction.
-Messrs Morgan & Thompson, who
are taking out square timber for the War
rem Lumber Co. on their tract near War
rem, have already "banked" about $4,000
square feet or two Allegheny fleets. They
have made about 200, 900 thus far, but the
most of it is still in the woods awaiting
snow to get it to the river. All told, they
will have ten or twelve "Alleghenies."
The company operating this tract of tim
Der is composed of Lawrence G Smear
baugh aud A. b. Kelly, of Tionesta. Last
spring they purchased of Daniel Grunder
his one half interest in the Grunder tract,
aud later in the summer purchased the
other half from the John Gruuder heirs.
They have under construction very fine
band mill with all modern improve
ments the machinery for which will soon
be on the ground. A railroad for stock
ing the mill will be built as soon as the
weather will permit, and when completed
the company will have very fine plant.
Barge and boat yards will be erected at
an early date, and the prospects are that
this industry will furnish employment to
large force of men for a number OF
years to come, paying out large sums Of
money, much of which will be left in
that community.
