Our thanks are due John Brennan,
Kellettville's artistic photographer, for q
nice postal card view of the REPUBLICAN
Office front, which he snapped-shotted as
he was passing through town with his
camera one day last week. John has
taken some excellent views of the pro.
gresslve town OF Kellettville and lis
picturesque surroundings, and is always
on the spot ready 10 "snap" any doings of
special interest or extraordinary happen
ings, and in this way has secured a fine
collection of photos for his studio.
VIM. Lowman and son, of Marien-
Vile, who are drilling for Corney Cellar
of Kane, on the Dawson island in the
Allegheny river about three miles above
Tionesta, have had considerable bad luck
with their machine of late, but are getting
along better now, and expect to finish a
well in short time. Mr.. Cellar has a
lease of the Dawson and Haslet islands,
and the McMillen, or old Jesse Dale
property, lying on the east bank of the
river, and proposes giving the territory a
thorough test. Very little, ifany, of this
territory has ever been drilled over, and
as 1t lies between two fairly good produc-
ing properties, Mr.. Cellar should open up
a nice lease. He will try for all three
sands and 1t seems hardly possible he
should miss it in all of them.
From social letter from our old
friend and former commissioner of For
est county, we are pleased to learn that
he is still in good spirits and enjoying a
reasonable measure of health. Mr.
Youngk recently returned from six
weeks visit with his sons at wilkins
burg, and friends at Butler, all of whom
were prospering and happy. Two of Mr..
Youngk's sons, Albert aud Henry, are
located at Cen.rals, Washington, and in
their letters to their father they speak
of the extreme heat and dry weather in
that section, so II must be pretty much
the same everywhere this season. One
of Mr.. Youngks' granddaughters, M Miss
Mabel Schroeder, Erie, Pa, is i'll with ty-
phoid fever, but was getting along well at
last accounts. Kind regards to you,
Peter, old friend may you keep your
health and live to see hundred.
Thursday afternoon while Albert
Gordon was driving his automobile up
the macadsm road he met Mr.. Watson's
car coming down at the Tubbs run
bridge and in attempting to pass, the
hand guard rail below the bridge. The
front wheel caught in the fence aud it
was necessary to use the emergency
brake to prevent the machine going
through the fence and over the embank-
ment. In doing this the big car was
brought up with jerk. In the car were
B. G. Schaeder, Mrs. r. l.. Haslet, of this
place, and Mrs. Carrie Mcintyre, of Phil
sdelphia, visitor to Tionesta friends.
When the ladies saw what they supposed
was going to be collision, both jumped
to their feet, and the sudden stopping of
the car threw them forward and out with
considerable force. Mrs. Haslet escaped
without injury, but Mrs. Mcintyre sus-
tanned the fracture of bone in her left
shoulder. DR.. Dunn attended the lady's
injuries and she was taken to the home
of her brother, Waller Siverly, at Siv-
erly, where, at last accounts, she was
doing well considering the circumstances,
she being upward of70 years of age. The
damage to the car was small, being con-
fined to broken lamp and hub. Mr..
Gordon and party left Sunday in their
car for their homes at Elkhsrt and CO.
shen, Indiana.
