East Hickory, shot bear at the head of
Sugar Run that will weigh nearly two
hundred pounds. Mr.. Gunchen with two
companions found the tracks of three
bears and followed the trail for day and
a half before they caught sight of the

-Silas Shriver was home during the
past week from the Forest Gas Co. lease,
near Golinzs, with badly wrenched
knee. AS member of one of the drill
ing crews he was helping to move the
drilling outfit to new location on Thurs
day and while snubbing some of the
tools down hill his left knee was caught
in coil of the rope and he got the full
weight of the load. He was able to re-
turn to the work Tuesday.
burgess Reck, who served the
borough faithfully for nearly four years,
and gave us one of the best sdministra-
tons we ever had, says he feels that a
vote of thanks is due the people of our
clean little city for two reasons -one OF
which would be that they gave him loyal
support in his efforts to keep the town
right, and the other that they allowed
him to retire in peace, and without at
tempting to force another term upon him.
Sheriff y. r. Maxwell and Wallace
Mealy were performing some tree den
tistry last Wednesday on the big oak
tree in front OF the NJ. e. church. The
tree was decaying at the heart where the
first branches fork and the decayed mat
ter was removed and the cavity filled with
cement. Iron stay-bolts we're also put
through the branches to keep them from
splitting off. The tree is one of the land
marks of the town and will be saved if
possible.
Ray White, of Endeavor, killed a cub
bear last week which weighed about
eighty pounds. Be got the animal on
what is known as Middle creek, above
that place. X. W. Beers, who is jobbing
for Wheeler q Dusenbury up Queen
creek, caught $50 pound cub bear in a
bear pen near his camp, the last of the
week. The bear was crawling into the
pen and the trap sprung before he got
clear into the enclosure, the lid falling on
him and killing him.
DIR. Siggins, Oil City's new and
thoroughly up-to-date Mayor, also has
"good eye'' when it comes to looking rp
the right sort of timber for municipal
cabinet. Being himself an ex-Eoreston-
ian he naturally concludes that more good
material has emanated from the same
quarter, and so he has appointed former
Tionesta boy to be street commissioner of
Oil City, in the person of Cornelius Con-
ley. and "Con," as he was known here is
making good in his new position, as a
matter of course.
