"Dun'l Boom." (
'AeHHra. Peck Sl Furtuiiiin, who
have had a lonjf aud very e xtenhive
experience uh ineairicai iniiiuicrs,
and who poHMt-HH a liberal allow
ance of hraina, energy and irii-ntiH
regard the American people an
poHneHsed of a critical and diacriin
mating judgment in the matter of
amiiHementH. In thia helief they
happily hit upon the idea of giving
the public a piny that ahould he
thoroughly aud diatinctively
American. How well the idea wa
received in told by the frreat uurena
of "Dan'l Hoone'' the paat four aea
onH. Believing that the tr.-iiU,
dangers and privationn of the pio-iK-ero
of thin country would furniah
good muterial for Mich a drama, the
life of Dan'l Hoone was selected as
being the most prolific with inci
dents from which a good drama
could he written. The selection
was a wine one. Mis personality
stamped him as one of Nature's
Robk-men. Incapable of fear, a
bold and ordinal character, in times
of danger cool and daring, and in
times of peace gentle as a child;
hie life teemed with dramatic inci
dente, which have been introduced
In the now famous play which bears
his name, The play depicts faith
fully and in a fascinating manner
the life of Hoone and his com
panions, from the time they first
settled in Kentucky. Showing
their happy home there; the up
rising of the Indians; the burning
of Hoone'a cabin aud the capture of
his two daiiifhtrrs. Then follows
in dramatic succession the Indians
incampment; the attempt of a res
cue and ci pture of Hoone; his fam
ous denunciation of Simon Curly;
the preparation of the Indians for
his torture; his unexpected rescue
by his faithful horse, and his sub.
sequent thrilling knife fight with
the Indian chief, for his child's life,
ending in his victory nnd the exter
mination of the Indians by the
settlers. Don't fail to see it at the
Waterman to-morrow night. Don't
miss the street parade.

We left Fulls Creek, enroute for
Niagara ' Kulla," via the Buffalo,
Rochester & I'lttsburg R. R., which
crosses the ' mountains via the
Bradford oil. districts, reaching the
highest point of the Alleghany
range at Mt. Jewett.'The JirBt atop
of any importance is Johnsonhurg
Here the visitor finds' nalijral gas
wells hy the score; hlso, one of the
largest paper mills in fh'c world.
Johnsonburg on the whole, is odc
of the best business points in Penn
sylvania. Our next stop is at Kin-
gue bridge. This is the largest
trestle bridge in the world. The
length is almost 4,(KX) feet and the
height is feet. A look at this
bridge is well worth a week's travel
alone. The tops of the trees tower
l.'tH feet above the barge, and to
stand on the bridge and look down
ward to their tops, presents a sight
wonderful to behold. The train
made a stop ou the center of the
bridge and the passengers were
permitted to take a view of tht
bridge, mountains and valleys. We
then started on our journey again,
well pleased. Long before w
reached Bradford, oil wells became
numerous; the mountains were
covered with them, even to the
highest peaks. There are now
lt,U3 wells in operation in this
district. The majority of these
were once flowing wells, but
pumping ia now necessary in mont
of them. Natural gas is abundant.
The yield of oil from ench well is
from two to fifty barrels a day, and
is sold for about sixty cents a bar
rel. One of the most beautiful
sights we witnessed was a large oil
well tank pot on fire. We passed
ttirough the state of New York, and
my first impressions of that country
were certainly not very flattering.
It is without exception the poorest
country I ever saw no crops to
speak of, not much fruit, and the
cows are about as large as a
Nebraska goat. They have a few
fine horses. From Buffalo to
Niagara we pass through a very
beautiful country, but as to its
productiveness I cannot vouch.
Hy the -ay, Buffalo is a nfniifi
ccnt city, located ou the east end of
Lake Krie; it is the hame of that
man of destiny, (irover Cleveland.
Arriving at the falls we spent a
day visiting the cataract and other
places of interest. We visited Luna
Island, (ioat's Islam), the (ireal
Whirlpool, Cave of the Winds, Rock
of Ages, aud took a trip ou the
"Maid of the Mist" to the foot of the
Great Horseshoe Falls. Here you
first rcali.e the majesty and power
f nature's greatest wonder. We
next crossed the great suspension
bridge to the o,tjecn'a dominions
a i-d went up to the park on the
aiiadiau side. Here you get u
better view of the falls, The sus-

the bridge, lu obedience to a
rriiii st from I'rof. Ilalsey, we find
that the fails have receded U.7 feet
from 1 M to IN' J, and that only one
seventeenth of the water passes
over the American Falls, one fiftieth
over the Centre Falls and the balance
over the Canadian side, or the
Horseshoe Falls. Only about one
(mirlh of the Horseshoe Falls
belong to the u,uecu. 1 got a few
specimens of rock out of the Cave
ol Winds, under the American
Falls, but my advice to travellers is
to stay out of this part of the (ails
miles they are very plucky; indeed,
it is enough to at are a Cass county
democrat outcf politic. We next
visited Toronto, Staplchurst and
Rochester, but will give a descrip
tion of these points some time in
the near future. B.
