being struck down TO Il. f. Rltchey, Esq,
attorney for the plaintiffs, who are the
two banks of this place. The price paid
was 1 LOO, this bid being subject to a
prior mortgage of 81, 200. 1t is altogether
probable ;he properly will be sold to some
practical parties who have the experience
aud capital to take hold of the plant and
make it pay a good revenue. 1t is one of
the finest plants in the United Statet, so
claimed by experienced judges, and there
is not the least DOUBT but that it can be
made a source OF revenue to the right
parties.
The Titusville Herald announces that
there is to be a macadamized road in the
near future between Titusville aud Hyde
town. The cost is roughly estimated at
$4,000, and the Stale will assist in footing
the bill, according to the provisions of the
Sproul road, law, passed at the last ses-
sion of the Legislature. State Highway
Commissioner Hunter has been in Titus
Vile looking over the situation and the
work will begin about November LIST. As
tie distance between the two towns is
about five miles it would mean that the
road -making is to cost about $4,000 per
mile, at which rate it will likely be some
time before the new system becomes suf-
ticiently popular to be adopted through
out the several counties of the State.

The authorities are tracing the spread
of typhoid fever to infected milk. In
dealing with this subject the Philadelphia
Inquirer says: "The facts seem clear
aud are in accordance with the known
fact that milk is the best "host' in the
world for the development of almost ev-
cry sort of bacteria. 1t has been found
that inside of a day under favorable o IL
ditions one million bacteria will form in
a drop of milk the size of a pin-head. 1t
seems impossible that such minute crea-
lures should be dangerous, but nothing is
more certain than that they are the au-
thors of much of the disease which af-
ficts mankind. Tie purest milk is hat
which is direct from the COW. Ifthe milk
is kept at about fifty degrees the develop
ment of bacteria is slow and is proper
tionately more rapid as the temperature
rises until 100 is reached, when they are
killed.

Watson farm is the centre OF base ball
interest in that section, and some lively
games nave been played at that place
during the summer. Between Saturday
evening and Monday morning last a
game was played at that place between
Watson Farm and B~rookston mines that
drew a large crowd. The Watson Farm
club had won a previous game and the
BrOokston team was after them to win
this time. The score was 80 to 10 in favor
of Brookston, which would indicate hat
the base runners were worked over time
and the official scorer was kept busy
Sheffield Observer. There is something
sensible and old fashioned like about a
game of this sort, and if fellow has any
United states blood in his veins he's
bound to get excited at a game where
they do something. Some of our citizens
will recollect a game Of real base ball
played in Oil City way back in the '6OS
between a Tionesta nine and one of hat
city, in which the score stood 46 TO % in
favor of the Oil Cityites. That was play
ing ball, don't you forget it.
