of near State College, aged about 60
years, took his rifle, fastened it in a vise,
and then taking a position in front of it,
pulled the trigger and shot himself dead.

daughter, are school teachers. Ie wa$
a brother of Daniel Weiland of Linden
Hall.

Review.
DurL TimBER TRADE.—There are
now upwards of one hundred ratts land-
ed along the Lockport shore of the river
and what is something urusual, there
are no buyers for the timber. The poor
quality ot the timber and the high fig-
ures at which it is held is given as the
reason for the dullness that prevails in
the timber market. There are but few
rafts back yet, all that was gotten in last
winter having been rafted in and to
this place. The crew of men worked
all Tuesday night at the boom sorting
out the logs and sending those intended
for Williamsport on below. The river
is running full of logs and a number of
thedrives will come in on this flood.—

SuicIpE BY A Sick MaN.—Last
Sunday evening Joseph S. Raudenbush,
Jr., of Laurelton, Union county, while
delirious from the effect of fever, shot
and killed himself with a revolver. His
wife went out of the sick room to get a
glass of water when Raudenbush got
out of bed, went to the bureau and
got his revolver, and just as his wife
entered the room he placed the muzzle
back of his ear and fired, This was
about 5 o’clock and in two hours he was
dead. Mr, Raudenbush was one of the
leading citizens of Laurelton, he having
just a couple of years ago erected a
handsome residence and large hotel
and store-house, He was a lumberman,
merchant and landlord and was conced-
ed to be well off. He was aged about
34 years,was married and had one child,
He was a’ good business man and his
sudden taking off is cause for deep re-
gret. :
Mixers BANDING FOR SELF PROTEC-
TIoN.—The 3,000 miners in the Houtz-
dale district met in mass meeting at
Houtzdale last week and agreed to join
the United Mine Workers’ Association
in a body, and assessed themselves 2
cents a ton per month per man, for the
purpose of creating a national defence
fund,maintaining one national organiza-
tion, to keep up their local check~
weighman association,and } cent a ton to
be used in aid of the Punxsutawney
miners. At Philipsburg Tuesday after-
noon the 2,500 miners of the Oceola,
Philipsburg and Beech Creek Associa-
tion met in a mass meeting and took the
same action, except that meetings are to
be held at each mine before final action
is taken. Meetings are to be held at
Oceola, Coalport and Snow Shoe. This

——In speaking of Henry Dunkle,
an old and model Democrat of Lock
Haven, now nearly 73 years old, the
Democrat of that place says that he has
never missed an election since he was 21
years old, either primary, county, state
or national, and never voted anything
but the Democratic ticket except once,
when he voted for Judge James T. Hall
as the independent candidate for con-
gress against the Republican nominee,
during the war of the rebellion, Mr.
Hall being elected and serving through
the 36th and 87th Congresses. When a
citizen of Walker township, Centre
county, Mr. Runkle could tell to a man
just how the township was geing to
vote and how much of a majority the
Democrats were going to have,so that he
became good authority, and the Demo-
cratic politicians always knew just what
to depend on in Walker. Mr. Dunkle
is still a hale and hearty man and takes
an active interest in politics.
not lost his reverence for the Democratic
party and clings to it as the final hope
for the permanent continuation of the
Government handed down to us by the
fathers of the Republic.
——Dr. Nevling, of Karthaus, in a
conversation with a newspaper man the
other day, said that he was not at all
satisfied that Andrews went straight to
Heaven after the hanging. The Doc-
tor was a great friend of the young lady
whom Andrews murdered, and was the
physician who made the examination
after she was discovered murdered. He
says that knowing what he does he is
satisfied that Andrews died with a lie on
his lips, and he is not willing to accept
his statement that he was going straight
to Heaven. The people of Karthaus
and many other points take the Doctor’s
view of things.
During the thunder storm oun
Tuesday night of last week the barn of
J. M. Fishburn, near Shilo church, was
struck by lightning three times, or by a
current that divided into three parts,
each one taking its own direction to the
ground. One of these passed straight
down through a mow of straw, without
doing any more damage than splintering
the shingles where it entered and leaving
its mark on everything it touched ; an-
other knocked part of the foundation
down, scattering the stones in all direc-
tions ;the other stunned a horse so badly
that he was unable to get up until the
next day noon.
——DMr. John Fortney, of Mackey-
ville, was in Lock Haven on Monday
and related the following: On Easter
Sunday one of his children was about
to eat a hard boiled egg, and had broken
the shell for that purpose. Tmbedded
in the white part of the egg
was found a whole grain of corn.
The kernei had sprouted, and an em-
bryo stock of corn an inch long protrud-
ed from the grain. How the grain of
corn got into the egg is puzzling Mr.
Fortney’s brain at present. Who can
explain it ?

A Bic Bass.—Mrs. Bob Washington,
of near Mill Hall, assisted by her mother
Mrs. Rice, who is nearly a hundred
years old, caught a biz bass weighing
about four pounds and a-half a few
days ago. It is said they had to catch
it with a pair of ice tongs in order to
prevent its escape and then dragged it
across the railroad into the woods in or-
der to make sure of the capture.
A SINGULAR AcCIDENT.— Mr. Charles
Richardson, of Renovo, left that place a
few days since to go to Canandaigua,
New York. The train in which he
was traveling was passing, Friday night,
the Renovo Newssays,over the Northern
Central railway when a tree fell, which
crashed into the car in which Mr.
Richardson was sitting. The tree
struck him on the head and injured him
severley. Mrs. Richardson received a
telegram Saturday morning advising
her to go to the place where Mr.
Richardson was.
A BrAKEMAN DrROWNED.—On Mon-
day G. A. Garver, a brakeman on a
Harrisburg freight train, met with a
singular death by drowning in the Jun-
iata river at the Granville bridge, a few
miles west of Lewistown. He had alight-
ed from his train at the front end and
was awaiting to get on the cabin, when
in running he struck the end of the
bridge and was knocked into the water
below. He must have been injured in
the fall, as he sank almost instantly and
was not seen to rise to the surface. Up
to a late hour Monday evening his body
had not been recovered.
Ax Orp SoLprer Hurr.—Gideon
Ganoe, living at Warriorsmark, an aged
soldier and a member of U. V. Legion
of Tyrone, was thrown from a wagon
near Dry Hollow ore mines Saturday
morning and severely injureds Three
ribs were broken and he was also badly
cut about the head and shoulders. He
was unconscious when picked up and it
required stimulants to revive him. Mr.
Ganoe was assisting the delivery clerk of
Mr. J. Mattern of Warriorsmark to de-
liver goods and on the return trip the
horse took fright at some object and ran
off. The driver being unable to control
it the occupants were thrown out. The
driver sustained but slight injuries.
A Parr oF AccipENTS.—Last Sun-
day evening a Hungarian working at
the Centre Iron Company’s furnace at
this place was frightfully injured by
being caught by the descending cage of
the hoisting machine used to elevate
material to the tunnel head. The flesh
was stripped off his back and the calf of
one of his legs was torn off. It was
thought at the time that he could not
recover from the effects of the injury.
On Monday another Hungarian work-
ing at the same place was knocked off
the dump by a backing train, falling
from a height of twenty feet and alight-
ing on his head on an ore pile. His
skull was fractured and it was thought
that his injury would also prove fatal.
Tue DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PED-
DLERS AND FARMERS.—In a case taken
from Schuylkill county to the Supreme
Court of the State in relation to a fine
imposed for peddling in that county,
Justice Green defined the difference be-
tween peddlers and farmers, stating that
farmers selling their products from house
to house are not to be brought under the
restrictions of the law that affects ped-
dlers. He made the following distine-
tion, which is of interest to our farmer
readers .
“The peddler is a transient with no
fixed placed of business, who seeks cus-
tomers by invading their homes and
makes sales by persuading people to
buy what they do not need, and who, by
the time he is wanted to answer for his
representations and engagements, is out
of sight. It is this matter of tracking a
laboring man or woman into the house
and laying siege to him or her by an
unscrupulous and self-possessed stranger
whois after money, and has no delicate
scruples about the manner ‘in which he
gets it, that has made the peddler a
dread in the country and in the villages.
“T do not regard the sale of the nat-
ural products of the soil by the farmer
or gardener by whom they are raised as
affected by the laws relating to peddlers,
Farmers are not within the mischief
which these laws were intended to rem-
edy, except as they are the victims of
that mischief. The carriage of the sur-
plus products of the farm or garden to
a market town or from house to house
is not peddling, but is incidental to their
business as farmers. Peddleps are for-
bidden to sell ‘goods, wares and mer-
chandise.” These words were never in-
tended to include farm products in the
hands of the farmer ; nor is the trans-
portation of such products to a market
for sale, or to regular customers who are
supplied by the grower, the sort of’ bus-
iness at which the laws relating to ped-
dling are directed.

School of this -place has determined to
give our citizens a rare treat and have
secured Belva Lockwood for a lecture
on Tuesday evening, April 29th, in the
Court House. Her subject will be, “Ts
Marriage a Failure,” and every body in
town who knows anything of the distin-
guished lecturer will be present to find
out how much ofa failure it is.
——1In the early part of last week while
ayoung son of Sim Batchler, of Philips-
burg, was tying the cows in his father’s
barn, one of the animals viciously hook-
ed at the one he was handling. She
threw back her head and run one horn
in the boy’s mouth, and out under the
jaw in front of the right ear, tearing a
gash several inches long, making a most
painful and ugly looking wound.
With care, however, it can be healed
without doing material injury.
——A dead female infant, abou’ ten
days or two weeks old, was found on the
river bank at Williamsport, Tuesday
forenoon,’in the vicinity of the foot of
Academy street. The child was entire-
ly naked and had the appearance of hav-
ing been drowned or suffocated and then
thrown into the river. All appearance
indicated that a ruthless murder had
been committed. The action of the wa-
ter had partially buried the body, which
was lying on its side, face downward -
with one arm completely covered by
the sand. An inquest was held, but
nothing definite was discovered concern-
ed the circumstances.
——Camp 59, of the Union Veteran
Legion, was organized in Gregg Post
last Wednesday evening. It was chiefly
through the exertionof comrade G. B-
Brandon that this organization was ef-
fected. The application for a charter
was signed by sixteen veterans whose
average term of service was 3 years and
29 days. There were 35 charter mem-
bers mustered in by D. E. Beighel, of
Camp No. 17, Altoona. The purpose is
to have but one camp in the county in
order to give it a vigorous organization,
all veterans in the county having the
privilege of joining it. The following
are the qualifications necessary in any
one who applies for membership: He
must be a soldier who has seen two con-
secytive years of faithful service; must
have enlisted prior to the 1st day of July
1863; must have an honorabledischarge
from the United States army, and a sol-
dier against whom there never was a
question in point of honor or the faith-
ful discharge of duty raised.

It is with deep] regret and pro-
found sorrow that we announce to our
readers the death of Mrs. Fred Olds, of
State College, on Monday April 10th,
after a long and painful illness. To
her friends is lost not only a beautiful
woman, but a kindly and gracious one,
ever ready to give of her winning cheer,
whether a bright smile or a sympa-
thetic word, with a capacity always to
touch the right chord. To her husband
and children her loss is unspeakably
great, but we trust that the peace of
God may rest upon this home,and by faith
and resignation from this one, we
may all think,
“I hold it true whate’er befall ;
I feel it when I sorrow most ;
‘Tis better to have loved and lost—
Than never to have loved at all.”
A TYRONE BURGLAR CAUGHT.—Some
days ago a man giving the name of
Charles Howard was arrested in Phila-
delphia for committing a theft. On
his person were found a number of
watches and rings. An account of the
arrest and finding of the articles was
published in the Philadelphia papers,
and J. A. C. Stewart, whose jewelry
store was buglarized in Tyrone a short
time ago, went down to Philadelphia
and identified the goods as a portion of
those stolen from his store. A warrant
was issued by Squire W. T. Taylor for
the man, and on Sunday Constable
Snyder, of Tyrone, left for Philadel-
phia and Tuesday he was taken to
Hollidaysburg for trial.
