ASSEMBLYMAN NICHOLSON DIES
Suddenly While ou a Vlwit to
North Carolina.
BROOKXTLLE, Feb. 25. R. J. Nich
olson, a member of the Pennsylvania
legislature, died suddenly in North
Carolina on Friday last. He will be
buried here on Wednesday next.
(Robert Johnson Nicholson xvas
born in Westmoreland county, Feb 6,
1823, and was educated at the public
schools and at the Greensburg acad
emy. He removed to Jefferson county
after reaching manhood, entered the
army from there and served through
the war with distinction, having at
tained the rank of captain. He has
been engaged in the lumber business
for some years and had accumulated a
competency. He served in the legis
lature during the session of 1857, and
was returned in 1880 and again in
1882. He was the author of the
Nicholson apportionment bill and rec
ognized as one of the leading mem
bers of the house.)
The wrong Kind of Protection.
The tariffjdues not protect the labor
ing man, for his wages depend upon
the demand and supply of laborers, and
of the manufactured articles. Protec
tion is for the weak and not for the
strong, and a tariff which makes the
rich richer and the poor poorer is not
the protection which, the laboring man
needs.
WASHINGTON LET TER. I
WASHINGTON, D. (\, Feb. 23, 'B4. j
Reports received by the naval hy-,
drographic office indicate that t IM* ice
is comihgdoxvn from the arctic regions
much earlier this season than usual.
This state of affairs is regarded as I'a
vorable for the (lively relief expedition,
as there will he more open water in
the polar region than is usual at this
period of the year and there will con
sequentlv he less danger from ice pack.
The Washington Monument Asso
ciation held a meeting on Friday, one
object of which xvas to consider the
subject of proper celebration of the
monuments completion. No delinite
action was taken except to appoint a
eoniniittee. Mr. Corcoran was re
elected president of the association.
The prospects of passing a hill Ibr
relief of distillers,by extending the
bounded period on whiskey, are
thought by friends of the bill to have !
improved of late, especially >inee Mr.
Morrison, chairman of the ways and
means, lias prepared a bill and promi
ses to support it.
Friends as well as opponents ot
measures fer pensioning soldiersoi the
Mexican war are agreed now that
some bill for the purpose will pass a 1
the present session.
The approaching close of the gay
season—the "Society season" —ls in
dicated by a notice that the last of the
President's official receptions will lie
held on Tuesday evening next. Mrs.
MeElroy, the President's sister, will
remain at the White House for a
week or ten days longer, but the "sea
son" is nearly over.
I should think it not unlikely that
Washington would come to be known
as' Bicycle city.' It lias many more
of these vehicles than any other city
on the continent. Its scores of miles
of smooth asphalt pavement, over
which there is little trouble and no
discomfort in foraging bicycles, have
induced hundreds of persons, old and
young, to indulge in this pleasant and
health-giving method of moving about.
There is considerable complaint
here at the failure of Mr. Randall to
report the appropriation bill> and push
them to a passage. All expectation
of a short session of Congress is over,
and no one now thinks of adjournment
before July.

Additional Local Matter.
—One other house to be built on Wa
ter street this spring, is S. G. Clark's,
lie has bought a lot to build it on.
—3fr. M. S. Wagonseller, of Selins
grove has been in town this week and
gaye us a pleasant call. He is the
travelling salesman for Artman &
Freiehler, wholesale dealers in Carpets,
Oil Cloths, etc, Philadelphia.
—On Friday March 21st, 11. A. Min
gle's executor's sale of the personal
property of George Bollinger's estate at
Aaronsburg will take place. A very
large lot of partly finished material
for chaii making will be sold, beside a
lot of household goods.
—Mr. E. W. Mauck showed us some
very fine samples of w ill paper. Ed
ward has a large line of samples on
hand and at the lowest prices. Per
thes who contemplate having work
of this kind done will do well to call on
him and examine his stock. tf
—We call the attention of farmers
and stock raisers to the Climax Gate
for which Mr. Wm. Stover and Mr.
John Kerstetter, Jr., of this place are
the agt-nts. For liandiness, durability
and cheapness it excels anything xve
ever saw in the gate line. If you are
in need of a new gate call on those gen
tlemen.
—The following item taken from last
week's Watchman will be of interest to
the many friends and acquaintances of
Mr. J. R. VanOrmer, who a few years
ago was one of our best school teachers
in town:
WEDDING CHIMES.— A very pleasant
and somewhat numerous company as
sembled at the residence of Dr. George
M. Svvartz, on Bishop street, last even
ing.(Feb. 21, IKS 4.) to witness the cele
bration of the nuptials of his daughter,
Miss Lizzie,xvitli Mr. J. R. VanOnner,
ot Philadelphia. Thecereiuony was per
formed by Rev. Mr. Penepacker, of the
Methodist church, who tied the knot in
his usual prompt, brief and decisive
manner. After the ceiemony,congratu
lations xvere showered upon the fair
bride and her handsome husband, who
conducted himself rightg illaolly under
the trying ordeal. Refreshments were
next in order, and an elegant supper
had been,provided of xvlucli the guests
partook with great relish. After an
liour or more spent in pleasant social
intercourse, the happy couple entered a
carriage and were driven to the depot,
where they took the train for Philadel
phia and other points.
The presents received by th.i fair
bride on this auspicious occasion were
many and valuable, comprising the
beautiful, the useful, the unique and
rare. They were sent from all quarters
—Philadelphia, Lancaster, Coatsville.
Baltimore, from Juniata county, from
the West, from Bellefonte, Penns
valley and other places, forming all to
gether one of the finest collections ever
seen at any wedding at Bel'efoute.
We tender the happy couple
our heartiest congratulations. Maj
their matrimonial sky be clear to
the end of their lifes.

TAKE NOTICE.— Mr. 11. K. Dine
hereby respectfully informs the public
that he has a large lot of seed potatoes
known as the "White Elephant Potato'
for sale at his residence at Millheitn.
We are in possession of a basket full of
these potatoes and can give them a
warm recommendation as the best
yielding pot a toe in the market. If you
are in need of any seed potatoes do not
fail to call on him. tf
Mr. John Kerstetter, Jr., still
makes a business of doing special jobs
at carpentry. John is really an expert
at the business and has large expel inee,
both in making out plans,specilieations
and drawings, as well as a practical
workman. People who entrust their
' work into his hands can safely rely on
I having it done m best style at the low
l est prices. tf
(JOY . PATTISON AT THE COLLEGE.—
Gov. Pattison, was taken to the State
College on Tuesday night after his ar
rival here, the journey being made dur
ing a driving rain, and in such d irk
ness that over two hours were c nisum
el in driving the eleven miles. At one
time the horses ran into a stone pile,
throwing one of the animals down, and
at another the party came unpleasantly
near upsetting on account of s one ob
struction, but the college was reached
without further mbhap. Wednesday
morning the Governor was honored at
the College by a salute of seventeen
guns and at Bellefon te, on his return,
the citizens turned out in large num
bers to greet him. As a result of thi s
visit the majority of the committee ap
pointed to ascertain er.d report upon
the feasability af combining the stud
ies so that the greater portion of the in
come can he used for agricultural pur
poses, have determined to recommend
a decrease of the facutly from seven
teen to ten, and that the fund saved
thereby be used in the direction indica
ted, and also for needed repairs. The
Governor seems to be pretty well pleas
ed with what he saw at the College.—

The last remains of Mr. Adam Loose

Miscellaneous.
The Philadelphia and Heading Hail
road Company has contracted with
manufacturers to take 200,000 tons of
coal dirt from its mines this year.
GENERAL FIT/JOHN PORTER when
a student at Exeter Academy was a
fine scholar, the best swimmer, marble
player and athlete in the school. None
had a higher reputation for honor, in
tegrity and character than he.
W. P. ELLIOT, of Lewistown, is
thought to be the oldest living editor
in the United States, lie was born
January 12,1793, and started tlie Lewis
town Gazette in 1811. Simon Cameron,
now in his eighty-sixth year and some
times abided to as the oldest living
Pennsylvania editor, sent a handsome
gilt to Mr. Elliot on the occasion of his
last birthday, "in memory of old times
and old printers."
Mrs. Nutt, in her evidence, s;ill that
Jaiues, her son, had commenced carry
ing a pistol when nine years of age
"and has been armed ever since." One
of the attorneys siid Janus carried a
pistol when but live years old. Is it
any wonder there are so many murders
and suicides when parents permit and
encourage their children to carry dead
ly woapons when they are scarcely be
yond infancy?
What Will Burst a Gun?
.Sportsmen are often heard asserting
that they have extra strong guns, that
can "shoot anything." etc., and guns
sometimes do bear things most foreign
to their natures, while at other times,
owing to a thousand considerations
guns instantly "bulge" or burst if tliey
are fired while the least bit of foreign
matter—a rag or a twig—accidentally
is added to|their usual "load." Some
strangely-twisted pieces of gun barrels
in Wanamaker's window on Chestnut
street exhibit in most interesting fash
ion the yagaries of overtasked gun bar
rels. These specimens are parts of
sotne guns burst by Captain Health, ot
this city, timing somo |dntnictnl p\. I
poiimiii's wilh various wrapotis. Fiyo
of llu; hands wcip burst because a ball
was "stuck" near tin; muzzle in each
case, two tfave way because about four
inches of snow were put in the muzzle,
two were burst by reason ot having
Some wet sand at muzzle and three were
ruptured by mud at muzzle. Spoilsmen
often scoop up a little mud or sand un
eoncsiously ,l>;uijr away at game and are
then astonished to Ibid theguu with'a
ragged and shortened barrel. These
ruptured guns having a scientific inter
est. will probably be deposited in the
Franklin Institutc. — '/Vans.
Minors Killod by Wholesalo from
tho Rosults of an Explosion.
PlTrsnuiio.Feb. :U). —A toarriblo ex
plosion oeeured to-day at the West
ladssenring pool shall near t'onnells
vilit 4 . Seventy.live men were in the
mine. So far 2ft dead bodies have been
taken out. Twelve were rescued alive
ami hopes are entertained of rescuing
others.
The ('onnellsville Coal and Iron
.
Company, ot which Judge Leisennng,
of Mauch Chunk, is president, has 200
coke ovens here which have bet n in
operation about a year. Tho works
giyo employment to about 100 men and
quite a little town lias sprung up named
after the president of the company.
The coal is obtained by means of a
shaft which reaches the mine at a dis
tance ot 400 feet from the surface. This
morning a part of the force who had
worked during the night left the mine
a little after three o'clock and seventy
others took their places, making the
usual morning shift about ft.do o'clock.
While the in :i were digging, suddenly
without warning, there oeeured an ex
plosion that shook the mine in every
apaitment, and threw the men into the
utmost consternation. The scene of the
explosion was in an apartment fully sou
feet from the bottom f the shaft and
therefore about 1, 200 feet from the
opening at the surface, yet the report
was heard outside for a considerable
distance, and the concession was so
great that the top ot the derrick, 100
feet high, was knocked off. Two mules
were standing at the bottom of the
shaft, MlO feet from where the explosion
oeeured, and the rush of the air was so
great that one of them was blown
through a.wooden cage, shattering it.
The other mule dieu from suffocation.
The awful scene that ensued among
the terror stricken miners cannot he
described. All their lamps were blown
out and they were left in darkness and
confusion. They had no time to re
cover from the shock betore they found
themselves unable to breathe.
Of all the men who were in the head
ing, when the explosion oeeured, Dick
Paisley alone escaped to tell the awful
story.
When the terrible explosion became
well known the families of the mineis
gathered about the shaft and awaited
developenients in breathless suspense.
Paisley's story gave them little ground
to hope that any of them could he got
out aliye.
The work of rescuing the bodies then
went on rapidly, it being done by will
ing voluvteers and at noon nineteen
bodies bad been carried out of the shaft.
The company's books were then exam
ined and the roll called. It was found
that all the men were accounted for.
The work proceeded with quietness and
order amid subdued sobs and wringing
of bands of the grief stricken families.
The bodies were taken to their homes
near by and laid out.
