household goods. 2t
WANTED.— The undersigned wishes
to secure a man who will either rent
b's blacksmith shop, two miles west of
Woodward, and carry on the business,
or work for him as a hand. For par
ticulars apply to
4T J. M. WEAVER.
—The new monster Intel at Spring
Mills, which is to be known as the
Spring Mills House , is to bo formally
opened on the 15th instant. Mr. Nash
the proprietor, is an experienced hotel
ist, and will spare neither labor nor ex

—The Council of Du Bois, Clearfield
county, has passed an ordinance mak
ing it compulsory for traveling salesmen
to pay a lice use when plying their vo

has the right to tax traveling agents
we presume that others have too, and
suggest that our council look into this
matter. The borough needs all the
revenue it is lawfuUy entitled to.
—Business is quite brisk at Mrs. An
na M. Weaver's Millinery Store,
since the arrival of the new Spring and
Summer styles. The ladies who have
been there say that the hats are just a

the matter, but are only too happy to
pay for what our dear wives and affec

Weaver's advertisement and then go

until all is disposed of. In the store
there is a very full assortment of the va
rious classes of goods, especially in the
boot, shoe and clothing line, as well as
prints and dres3 goods. This sale will
afford a good opportunity to the public

bills, dt
—We call tho attention of our lead
ers to the new advertisement in to
diy's JOURNAL of Harris' popular
Millinery and Variety Store, Lewis
burg. There is no establisment that we
know of where our ladies can suit
themselves better, or buy cheaper,
those beautiful instititutions called
hats, which are so indispensable to
their happiness. Harris is the boas
place in Central Pennsylvania, not on
ly for hats, but for tho thousand and
one other articles used to trim up and
beautify tho dear ladies. fit
THE ROYCE PvE\REU.—I hereby
make known to the farmers of Outre
county that I intend as heretofore to
ship reapers on trial to all who wish to
buy. I ask no one to sign any contract
but all will have a fair trial before
buying. The Royce must stand or fall
on its own merits. For simplicity of
construction, lightness of draft, ease
of management and efficiency of work
it stands unrivaled. For further in
formation I respectfully refer to men
who have used it—Jacob Kerstelder,
Daniel E. GentK.el, Jacob J. GenUel,
Coburn Post Office, and others.

DESTRUTOTIVF. FIRE AT LOGAXS
VILLI2. —On Saturday, the 22 nd
inst, at about 12 o'clock m.,
fire broke out in J B B irncr's dwell
ing. As soon as the alarm was made,
people ll >ck ed to the scene and did
their utmo?t to extinguish it, unt to
no purpose. It continued to spread
and soon the largo dwelling house of
Hon. G. A. Ackenhuch was enveloped
in dimes. Both of ilie.se were burned
to the ground. Indications were of
such a nature at one time that it look
ed as though the whole town would e
coine one vast sheet of devastating
flame. In a very short space of time
the roofs of twenty buddings caught
lire. Through the skill and energy of
the Logansvilie Bucket Company the
fire was finally extingiushtd. Many of
the household goods of the families
burned out were saved. The loss is
fully covered by the insurance; Mr.
Rimer's in the Home of N. Y.. and
Mr. Acheuhach's in the Sugar Valley
Mutual Fi:e Insurauo Company.—
Clinton Democrat.
That was truly a very clo c e escape
for Logansvilie; and we have often
feared that a simil ir or worse fate may
some day befall Millheim. In the ab
sence of all ntco-ss wy appliances to ex
tinguish or even check a fire, what
could be done to save the town from
destruction, if a fire would break out
on a stormy day in the central or west
ern part ? If a fire had once gained
headway under such circumstances,
the people would he utterly helpless a
gainst the de3tro)i:ig element.
We have no dtsiie to alarm., bat fed
it our duty as j mrnalists and citizens
to call the attention of our people, and
especially the council, to this grave
question.
—The by nod leal Sunday School Con
vention that met in Aaronsburg on
Tuesday evening and adjourned on
Wednesday evening, was a successful
affair. The attendance cf delegates
and visitors was vei v creditable, and the
m 1
good people of the steady and cfauichly
old burg manifested their interest and
appreciation not only by attending al
most en masse , but by a genuine hospi
tality toward the strangers present.
There w perhaps no town within the
borders of the broad old Keystone that
better understands to entertain any
meeting th rt lias for its object tiie
promotion of Christ's kingdom upon
earth.
The essays, addresses and discus
sions were eminently practical and
painted, and will no doubt leave bene-
lasting impression upon a\l
who attended and feel an interest in
Sunday School work. The cause re
ceived a good impetus.
That popular and beloved divine,
Rev. L. A. Gotwald, D. D., President
of the Board of Home Missions, was
present, and delivered two very able
and comprehensive add resses—the one
on Wurn't)i''s Missionary Work— the
other on The Relation of Sunday Scluool
Instruction to Missions. These ad dresses
wee listened to with intense interest.
The Doctor held the large audience spell
bound for about an hour each time.
We feel impelled to piy a compli
ment to the President of the c inven
tion, Rev. J. A. Koser, of Pine Grove
Mills. He is one of the best presiding
officers we ever saw; and but for the
fact that ho has a higher office now, we
would see to it to have him nominated
for Vice President in 183 d. Ele would
certainly preside over tlie ''first deliv
erative body in the wirld," with more
ability and dignity than our common
run of Vice President are able to do.
—The Women's Missionary Society
of the Synod of Central Penna. held
its annual convention at Aaronsburg
on Wedae3day. We did not learn any
of the details of the proceedings, but
they will be published in pamphlet
j form in connection with the minutes
; of the Synodical S, S. Convention at an
| early day. This much, however, we
causally learned, that much interest was
mumfe: t *d at the sessions of the society,
and that renewed activity in missionary
work will follow. We also understand
th at Miss Puella E. Dornblasor, of
Ma ckeyville, Clinton county, was elect
ed Vice President, with powers to
travel the bounds of Central Synod, a
hi P residing Eider, lecture on mission
work and organize congregational mis
sionary societies. Correspondents will
please address her after this date, whin
writing on otlbial busiuoss, as Miss
P. E. Dorublaser, i\ E.

A new postal law or decision author

A crowd of vandals living in the
neighborhood of Mt. Pisgah Church,
on tl e road between Wrightsville and
Yoikana, near tho liue of Ilellam and
Lower Windsor township, went to the
Evangelical Church recently, and tore
out the corner stone, stealing there
from the coins it contained and ether
articles.
It has been suggested by the Post
ofiice department that all letters of im
portance, and especially those contain
ing checks or other papers of value,
shall have plain directions for return
ing the same to the sender printed to
the outside. If this plan is followed,
it will soon d>aw ay with much of the
work of the dead letter office.

LONDON, April 23.—A dispatch to

the rate of 150 couples per day. They

or Palestine.
A Woman Dies From Drink.
MINERSVILLE, April 24.—Mrs
Meredith, an old lidy residing at this
place, was found dead in bed this
morning, beside her husband, who sev
eral weeks ago was severely burned in
the mines. Mrs. Meredith was addict
ed to drink, and it is believed excess
ive driokiug was the cause of her
death.
A CONDUCTOR '3 HEROISM.
While Mangled and Suffe ing Ho
Prevents a Serious Collision on the
Rail.
It came out at the Coroner's inquest
at Philadelphia that the accident to
Conductor Robert Glenn on the Penn
sylvania Railroad, near Honeybrook
Station, on Monday of last week,
which caused his death at the Pennsyl
vania Hospital, was attended by an act
of self-sacrificing heroism. The train
which Glenn had charge >f was cut in
to sections, the intention being to send
the last half upon a siding. Glenn fell
off the back platform of the first sec
tion and was run over and had both
legs mangled. As he lay he saw that
the second section did not run on the
siding. Raising himself on his crush
ed limbs, he signaled the engineer to
go ahead, which he did, and succeeded
in preventing a collision between the
two sections. Charles Glenn, a broth
er, having told the Coroner that Dr. O.
A. Allis, of the Presbyt< rian Hospital,
had lefused to go to the hospital and
perform an amputation, and that Dr.
Wattles had said that this would have
probablj saved Glenn's life, as he lay
for hours without attention, postponed
the case to hear the physician's expla
nation.

Mr. Shafcr was one of the pioneer settlers of
Brush Valley, and one of the oldest as well as
most respected citizens of the county. He was
a man of frugal and industrious habits, strictly
honest in all his dealings with his neighbors
and fellow men, and carries with him to an
honored grave the love and veneration of the
entire community. He was an excellent type
of that sturdy and uoble class known as the
Pennsylvania Germans, who by tlieir industry
and endurance have transformed our noble old
state from a wilderness to a blooming paradise.
