Representative Womelsdorf, of Centre county, will introduce a bill in the pres ent legislature for the formation of a new county out of the bituminous coal dislrijt composed of parts of Centre. Clearfield and U!air, with Philipsburg as the county seat. It would be purely a bituminous coal miners county, and would undoubt edly be of great benetit to that district. The division would make Clearfield ard Centre more strongly Democratic and the the new county would be Republican. On Saturday evening the lie publicans of tin?

A lilair county jury did a very wise act last week and Cambria county juries might follow the example with much profit to the taxpayers ami leach aldermen a les son. We take the following from the Hollidaysburg St4inUinl. The first case on record in Blair county in which the committing magistrate had to pay costs occurred in court last week. It was iu the case of Charles Kline who w as charged with violating the boarding house act. He was taken before Alderman Smith, of Altoona. for a preliminary hear ing, and the alderman evidently consider ed there w as no cast! against the accused, as he permitted him to go free, but still sent the cast- to court. When the case came for trial Judge IJell directed an ac quittal, and said that it would not be right to put the costs on either the defend ant or the county, at the same time intimating that if the jury saw proper to place the costs on the alderman he would not dis turb the verdict. The jury returned a Verdict accordingly.

On Wednesday evening a social gather ing of about a dozen Republicans of the West vard of Ebensburg, who had been invited and were supposed to know "what was what," met at the council room, and after some little talk, Milton Jones was elected chairman, and William Hum phreys and Aaron Davis were elected sec retaries. Mr. Jones on taking the chair stated that the meeting was for the pur pose of nominating a school director in place of C. T. Roberts, w ho had declined the nomination. Web I'riflith was named, when Mr. ('riflith got up and staled that before ac cepting the nomination he would decline the nomination for council which had been given him on Saturday. Mr. tirifiith was then nominated by acclamation. There being a vacancy on the t'eket for council. Edward W. Humphreys nomina ted Thomas Davis. Some one nominated Sherman Tibbott but that gentleman de clined emphatically and nominated Fergus Lloyd, whom the Democrats nominated for the same position. Druegist James at once arose and moved that the nomina tions close, which was carried. A motiou was made and carried to proceed to ballot, when each man went up to the table and made a mark for his candidate. The sec retaries made no announcement but the last man voting says, the ballot stood 7 for Davis and 5 for Lloyd, when Druggist James glanced over the tally sheet and commenced a little speech in which he said "the proceeding was eutirely irregu lar and he was astonished that the chair man would pel mil it. Men voted," he said, "who were not Republicans and he would not stand it" unless he knew how they voted. He was in favor of taking an other plan. Chairman Jones then declared the pro ceedings irregular and that they would commence iu tiie new. T. W. Dick, Esq.. then nominated Sher man Tibbott. and E. W. Humphreys again nominated Thomas Davis. After taking a vole the chairman announced tin. vote as T for Tibbott ami .1 for Davis, which seemed to lie satisfactory to those w ho had got up the meeting. The w hole question in a nut shell is the cow question, which w ill not down. How much twist is to be put in the cows tail ami w ho is to twist it will be the issue in Ebensburg at the coming election. The "Tail Twisters'" were anxious to have Mr. Lloyd on both tickets, but the "Anti Twisters," or those who are opposed to having the drastic twist of the ordinance passed last year enforced, have not yet announced their plan of action. That Captain Davis was nominated for council on the Republican ticket ou Wed nesday night there is no question. That there w as no objection to the voting until everyone had voted and the result known is equally well settled. Whether the peo ple of the town ill allow the "Tail Twisters" to have their own way will be the main issue at the coming election. Anhvtlle UleanlnK Sleighing is first-class. Mr. Frank Nagle, of St. Augustine, was iu tow n ou Saturday. Miss Minnie Kratzer, who has been in Altoona for some time, returned home last week. Mrs. Charles Adams, of Altoona, spent several days last week with relatives and friends in this place.

The ceremony will take pla'.'e on February 12. The high-minded girls of this place hid better watch the strange dudes that come here. Although they may have a boyish face or wear a picadilly collar, they may also have a picadilly wife at home. We notice by the sw eet smile of one of our young ladies that "Jim" surely gave her a sleigh-ride. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Will, of this place, are visiting relatives and friends in Mun ster and Patton. Mrs. Ann Cassidy 'relict! died on Janu ary Lin 1 1 at her home iu this place, after a long illness from dropsy. She leaves to mourn her untimely death one son and tw daughters, one of the latter being a Sister of Charity at (ireensburg. the others residing at home. The din-eased was a de vout member of the Catholic church and an estimable lady. After a Reqiiium High Mass celebrated at this place on Wednesday morning, her remains were taken to St. Augustine for interment. May her soul rest in peace. - o. u. Of Intrrrtl to ranmablm. A question that is attracting wide at tention was presented to Judge Reyburn, of Armstrong county, recently. In the fotrn of a stated case. Il relates to the comjien sation to be allowed constables for attend ing the polls on election days. Fnder the old law constables were required to be present only until the closing of the polls, seven o'clock in the evening; but the. bal lot reform act requires them to remain within the voting room w hile the votes are being counted. In many precincts the count is sometimes not completed until nearly day-break the next morning, and in tiut few election districts do the officers end their duties before 1 or 2 o'clock, a. m. It is for this extra time that increased pay is asked. Heretofore the county commis sioners allowed constables f2 for their election day w ork. Several constables last November demanded of the commissioners extra pay for attending the polls while tha count was going on. The board of county commissioners refused to comply, and ten dered the usual compensation, two dollars. The peace officers theu employed counsel to test the matter, and the question was argued before the court. Tht; new law contains no provisions for an increase of pay for theextra time served by constables, but provides that all ex penses nr-urred in carrying out the law shall be paid by the county commissioners Judue Reyburn, has not, as yet, rendered a decision, but it is awaited with much interest. The editor of the Fret-fM-t Jnuntnl wants each of his subscribers to have a Bird book and thus tells them how to get "The legislature has passed a resolution to print another lot of Bird books, and we hope every reader of the Journal will see that they get their share. It Is a very valuable book; large well bound, and contains a handsome picture and descrip tion of every known bird in the state. It will he an elegaut book for the library or to lie on the center table, and as it is to be paid for out of the public money every tax payer is entitled to one of them at least. Sit right down and write to your repre sentative, senator or member, and tell him you want a copy. He may make some ex cuse: may say that there is only a limited number published and that it will be im possible for him to send one to each of bis constituents, but do not listen to any such excuse. They have no business to print them at public expense unless all the pub lic can get their proper proportion. We do not want any discrimination. One man is just as good iu this case as mother and has the same rights. Il is about time this business was stopped, aud we propose; to do our share tow aid it. We want books for everybody or no books at all." Real Eotate Traaafera. J. Blair Decker et ui. to George M. Schell, Hastings; consideration, $2,000. Henry Smith et ux. to George S. Lamb, Adams, $410.

Assignee of Eliza Pickworth to F. I'. Martin Dale. Flora Nonntalndale. Rev. Mr. Dean, an able aud pleasant minister of the gospel, of Rey noldsville. Pa., is conducting au unsuccessful revival in the Baptist church of this place. The meetings are cold and the audiences are small. There have been dissensions in this church for the past five years, and their wranglings have not reflected credit to the community. The reverend gentle man will have to set this church right within itself before he can expect to ac complish any good in this neighborhood. Farmers throughout this state should use their influence with their representa tives in the legislature to secure the pass age of the law tending to put down the nefarious 'pluck-me" store system. They should do this not only in justice to their fellow men, but because it is an injury to themselves. Miners dare not purchase from the farmer direct, nor from the retail merchant who is conducting a legitimate business. If they did they would be dis charged from their present employment and other mining companies would refuse them work. In short, they would be stig matized as agitators, anarchists, law breakers and tramps too lazy to work. The general meichant not having sale for the produce of the farmer, he is compelled to dispose of it to the proprietor of therob shops at their own prices in rotten goods. If these stores were rooted out the farmer could sell his produce to the miner direct, or to the independent merchant, aud he would be able to command a belter price. These fellows should be outlawed and ex terminated as effectively as the Jessie James gang was a few years ago. They are too cowardly to go out on the high ways and hold people up at the muzzle of a revolver, but confine their robbery to the poor aud defenceless, and their weapon is starvation. I- Evening; Toileta. Now that the season of gatherings, balls and theatre parties has fairly set in, every women's interest is once more centered on the appropriate evening toilettes. The bodice is a mass ot some filmy fabric, the iiltra-fashionable ones irrespective of skirt made of another material being in variably of crepon or embroidered mous line de soie, made over a foundation of silk w hich, in color, matches the skirt. Ro settes of lace usually finish the bodice. Jewelled corselets are very popular. They have a silk foundation aud are frequently set with real gems. The crepes affoid an opportunity for producing, at a moderate price, very artistic effects. They come in all tints. The ribboned crepe is a very dainty novelty. Sleeves remain as won derful as ever in size. They are of the same fabric as the skirt. As for the lat ter, it is conspicuous for Its plainness and its pronounced flare. A great variety of models are to be found in the McDowell fashion magazines. These unequalled per iodicals offer an inducement in the way of special coupon patterns which always fol low the latest, the most fashionable and tho most practical styles. Both "La Mode de Paris' and "Paris Album of Fashion" cost $3.50 per year, or 35 cents a copy; "The French Dressmaker is $3.00 p?r annum or 30 cents a copy. As for "La Mode," it costs only $I.50a year or 15 cents a copy.

A Rallraad la Traable. The Pennsylvania Midland railroad, a 25-mile line under construction from Cess na, Bedford county, to Brooks Mills, Blair county, seems to be financially embaiassed. Contractor E. A. Tennis has been sued by 40 laborers and sub-contractors for non payment of claims, and the chief engineer and his corps of assistants have ceased work and instituted suits for several months' wages. Engineer J. Murray Af rica retains possession of every plan or draft of the road and it would be Impossi ble to proceed with the work without them. One stone-mason. It is said, has a claim of $4,000 against Contractor Tennis. A Mr. (Jerrish.of Maine, is one f the chief promoters of the road. Hoarnera Go Over n Preclpl e. At Pittsburg last Wednesday, wh le the funeral corteage of Peter Saladin was pro ceeding from tha church to the cem tery. the horses attached to a carriage oci apied by Mrs. Stroup and Mrs. Won .ouse. daughters of the deceased, and their bus bands, became numanageaole, and with the carriage, plunged over a 40-foot prec ipice. The horses and carriage overturned several times, alighting in the brook at the bottom. Neither of the men were much injured. The women, however, were very seriously, and, perhaps, fatally hurt. They were taken home and the funeral proceeded. A second carriage and its occupants narrow ly escaped a similar experience. Saturday is groundhog day and from thenceforth we will have official weather trognosticaiions.
