boy, in which he sends us a substantial
subscription remittance. he says; "My
father reached home feeling well, as are
all the rest of my family. l am still
with the st. Marys Drilling Co.. with
which have been employed for the past
hve years. Politics are hot here just now,
and Willie j. Bryan is going at a 60-mile
clip, but we will stop his speed when the
time comes to tackle that proposition.
Remember me to all the boys of old Tio-
uesta."
The well near the old Hunter grst
mill, on the West Side, mentioned in our
last issue, bids fair to blossom into a
good one. 1t was tubed Monday and,
without being shot, has been pumping az
the rate of eight or ten barrels per day.
At present there is not sufficient tankage
to take care of the fluid If pumped stead
lily and 80 the operators are going slow.
This strike has caused considerable ex-
citement among local oil men, and it is
likely to set things agoing on the West
Side, which may develope into lively
oil field. We hope so.
-"Men and women are but men and
women-not gods-very human and frsil
and faulty, and, adoring overkeenly,
they demand too much and forgive not
at ALL" This is the burden of Justus
Miles Foreman's delightful love story in
the November McClures,- - one of those
brief and exquisite bits of lyrical prose
which read like snatch of song. The
story of the falling out of two young
married lovers and their happy reconcil-
iation is told with the tender, compass
sionate irony of one who envies while he
smiles at the follies and extravagances of
youth.
"A wildcat we'll has been drilled in on
the Mcdonald lease at Judy Run. located
on the line of Forest and Clarion coun-
ties, which is showing up for good gas
ser. When the drill struck the sand
there was large volume of gas which
throw pebbles over the derrick and was
of such volume that the fire in the boiler
had to be put out in order to keep the
gas from igniting. AS soon as the boiler
was moved out OF the danger zone, the
drill was again started and still greater
volume was struck. The we'll is now
gushing forth at great rate.-Ksne Rep.
"A very beautiful home wedding was
that of Mr.. J. w. Lucart and Miss Hat
tie Wagner, both of Tylersburg, Wednes-
day morning, October Oath, 1906, at the
brides home. The ceremony, performed
by Rev. DR.. Paul j. Slonsker, took place
in the presence of about forty guests.
The home was beautifully decorated, and
everything was in accord with natures
harmony. A sumptuous wedding break
fast was served after which the newly
married couple started on their wedding
tour to Niagara Falls, New York, and
other points in the East. Mr.. Lucart is
an oil producer and has been very sue
cessful. Miss Wagner is one of the pop
ular girls of Tylersburg, daughter Of
Mr.. Wagner, proprietor of the Central
Hotel. On their return the bride and
groom will make their home in Clarion.
They have the good wishes of their many
friends.
Mr.. Nelson p. Wheeler, the Repub-
lican candidate for Congress in this dis
trist, spent Friday afternoon in Ridgway
shaking hands with a number of people
who were glad to meet the candidate.
He was met at the train by number of
local Republicans, and was accompanied
by his popular private secretary, Mr..
Gus B. Evans. Several of our leading
business men called on Mr.. Wheeler, and
he accepted invitations to visit number
of our local manufacturing plants, with
which he was we'll pleased. Mr.. Wheeler
is bright business man, and has a fine
record morally, so that he adds strength
to his ticket. Though he says he is not
politician, he is of such genial disposi-
tion naturally that he only has to be
himselfto to take we'll with the people, and
wherever he goes he seems to make
friends by the hundred. AS long as the
Republican candidate is practically as
sured OF election in this district, it is in
deed fortunate that the party has put up
such clean and able business man to
represent the interests of this DISTRICT
