ONE KILLED AND ANOTHER'S ARM BrowN OFr¥. —Monday in the Philips- burs ¢oal regions was characterized by two neeidents, one of which resulted in ithe death of Mike Guito, a Hungarian leant digger, and by the other Salvina Cavauch lost his arm. Guito was em- plosed at the Baltic mine and met feath from a premature fall of rock. His head was crushed in, while Cav- uch struck a match and succeeded in eaving a spark fall on three dynamite srtridges, which he was holding in his jand. A fearful explosion followed ind his arm was so horribly mangled ihat the physicians at the cottage hospi- lal found it necessary to amputate it. He was digging fire clay, on Morgan Run, at the time the accident occurred. | Marriace Licenses.—E. L. John- ‘son and Edith McKinley, both of Boggs I twp. | Wm. M.

A SerIoUs FALL.—On Sunday even ~ ing Mrs. Lingle, the estimable wife of ex-Sheriff Jos. L. Lingle, who resides on Spring street, went up to visit her son Howard, who wassick. Upon return- ing about half past six o'clock, when passing the public school grounds, she fell from the pavement down into the school yard alighting upon a pile ot stones and receiving some very ugly cuts and bruises about the head and limbs. Her cries were heard by Charley Noll and Jas. Cooke who procured a rocking chair and, placing her in it, carried her to her home. Dr. Harris was called in and an examination made, but no bones were found to have been broken. Mrs. Lingle is seventy-seven years old and such a fall was & very serious thing, however we are pleased to learn that she is getting along nicely and will soon be about as usual. This should be a warning to the school board to fix the fence up down along there as it is un exceedinsly dangerous place. Especially at the time of the evening when this accident occurred, as then the electric light is not on and there is nothing to keep pedestrians from falling over the embankment, which ranges from four to ten feet in heighth. To Visit California and Mexico via Pennsylvania Railroad. No new feature ever inaugurated by the Pennsylvania railroad company attracted such universal comment and attention as the series of tours run ear- ly this year to the far Pacific Coast,and now that another series is announced for 1892, not oniy covering the Pacific Coast but an individual tour to Mexico, the land of the Aztec, is further illus- tration of the wonderful growth of the personally conducted systems of trav- eling and the progressive move of this world-famed railroad. Each tour will be limited to a certain number of passengers, who will travel in a Pull- man vestibule train, furnished with the luxurious appointments of the richest home, with ladies’ maid, stenographer and typewriter, library, bath and bar- ber, and smoking and library rooms, and an observation car—in truth an exact reproduction of the famous Penn- sylvania Limited. The first tour leaves New York January 13th, and speeds directly to the Pacific Coast via St. Lous, Kansas City, Las Vegas and Santa Fe. The second tonr, the Mex- ican, leaves February 10th, running direct to the City of Mexico* via Cin- cinnati, Mammoth Cave, Birmingham, Montgomery and New Orleans, with incidental stops en route. The third, February 24th, runs directly to New Orleans, via Cincinnati and Mammoth Cave, and thence, after the Mardi Gras festivities, to the Pacific coast, The fourth and fifth, both through Califor fornia tours, will leave March 24th and Amil 20th, respectively, The inauguration of this service last year was the theme for universal com- ment, and the warmest credentials of praise bear testimony to the high standard and perfection of every detail promoting the comfort and enjoyment of the tourists. Such an opportunity has never been presented before to people of the East of thoroughly seeing the vast. domain of the country they so valiantly boast of, as well assuch an opportunity of visiting the interesting land of the Az tec, replete with ruins garlanded with mythical lore. The rates for the round trip are exceptionally low, and include, not only all necessary traveling expenses en route to the Pa- cific Coast and return, but also side rips to the attractive resorts mm Cali- fornia, and several carriage and stage rides of interest. This applies as well to the Mexican tour, where the objec: tive point will be the city of Mexico and side trips made from there, thus including every necessary expense as well as hotel accommodation and side trips, Itineraries presenting the full details of the tours are in course of prepara- tion, and will be issued at an early day. In the meantime more detailed infor: mation may be secured by addressing Geo. W. Bovd, Asst. General Passen- { zer Agent, Philladelphia, Pa. "A Lie Nailed! The Following Remarks Were Made by Robert E. Wright, Democratic Candi date for Auditor General, in His Speech at Williamsport, Tuesday Eve- ning, Oct. 20. I regret to feel that I ought to turn aside for a moment from the discussion of the vital questions of the canvass to notice a few misstatements made, by certain opposition journals, about, me. I have in my hand a copy of the Farmers’ Friend, a journal published by one R. H. Thomas, a Repablican politician. Init I find a letter from Leonard Rhouve, advising farmers to vole against me because, as hedeclares my ‘record show me to be opposed to thie tarmers’ demand for an equal dis- tribution of the necessary burdens of governuient.”” ln an editorial on this fewer the editor declares that I appear- ed betore the House aad Senate com- mittees as counsel for the Pennsylva- nia Railroad Company and other cor- poratious, and that I was perhaps the ablest ot the opponents of and did more than any other mau to defeat the “Tag- gart bill.” Itis a remarkable coinci- dence that these articles appeared in the Farmers’ Friend within a week af- ter Quay’s boast that so far as these so-called leaders of the grange were able to control it, the farmer vote should be cast against me. I want to 8uy to these two gentlemen that every important assertion or insinuation in ! this statement is untrue. I did appear before the committees named on behalf of one client, the Le- hign Valley R. R. Co., to present an argument against certain provisions of the bill as unwise and unconstitu- tional. 1 did not appear for the Penn- sylvania Railroad Company, for I nev- er ‘have been counsel for it in any mat- ter. That company was represented before the committee by Republican ex- Autorney General Palmer, while anoth- er railroad company was represented by Republican ex-Attorney Gereral Kirkpatrick. It is not true as declar- ed by Messrs. Rhone and Thomas, that I argued against tax equalization. Before I appeared before the com- mi tee I frankly declared to my client that my investigations had eatisfied me that the owners of real estate, especial- ly (he tarmers, were bearing more than their share of the burdens ot taxation and that as compared with real estate owners, the corporations were paying too little; that I had confirmed this opinion by statistics co'lected by my- selt and that I must so state in any plea I might make tor the amendment of the Taggart bill, Before the committee I emphasized these views. I gave my reasons for believing that the 1ax equalization de- manded by the tarmers was just and ought to be conceded. When my ar- gument was interrupied by a repre- sentative asking whether I thought that corporations were paying their fair share of taxation, I answered that in my judgment, as compared with farmers, they were not. [ out- lined the principles of a vill, which, it adopted, would have given to the tarm- ers, and to all peuple of Pennsylvania, tax equalization. When I had con- cluded my argument 1 was congratulat- ed on my views by the true tax retorm- ers on the committee ; I mean by those members of the committee who stood for tax equalization even after protes- sional Farmer Taggart had bowed to the order of the bosses and deserted his own bill. Tax equalization was defeated, not becavse I argued for the amendment of the Taggart bill, but because the Re- publican bosses applied the whip and by an almost strictly party vote set it aside. The charge of these men that I opposed tax equalization is contradict- ed and refuted by every private and public utterance I have every made on the subject. I say to Mr. Thomas that if he will print in the next issue of the Farmers’ Friend my eutire, ungarbled argument before the Senate or House committee I will be glad to pay tor such insertion at the usual advertising rates. It is also charged thatI am a cor- poration lawyer. I happen in my own county to be the local counsel for the few railroads that pass through it. I try their cases there as do the lawyers in other counties. [ en- deavor in these cases to give them hon- est compensation, as I do to any other client I may have. They have never asked more, and I assume they never will. The Auditor General's office has charge of the settlement of accounts against corporations, I desire now to give notice to all corporations that if I am chosen to that office I will expect every one of them to make prompt set- tlement and payment of all taxes, but at the same time I assure them that the office shall not be used as the hatching place for bogus claims and euits devised for levying tribute upon them for personal or political use. Pine Grove Mentions. Francis Speer, of Bellefonte, accompanied by Mr, Shaffer paraded our streets on Tuesday last. Mrs. Robert Meek, of Altoona, came down to spend a few days with her aged mother who is 1 ill health, but who hasslightly improved for the better. And now our Democratic friend Andy Jack- son Tate looms up as a “Fractificare” covering his fruit shelves with fifty eight different var- ieties of choice apples all grown in one orchard —next. The physical condition of Capt. J. M. Kep ler is slowly improving, with but very slight improvementof his mental condition. How ever, the Captain’s constitution'is of iron and his many friends can hope for better reports. Mr. Adam Murpher, a veteran of the war, ac companied by his family, are this week visit ing his mother-in law, Mrs. Judge Smith, on Water street. Adam is cue of old Clearfield’s rock-ribbed Democrats and says that an in- creased Democratic majority will be rolled up next Tuesday. Mrs. John L. Rumberger is about purchasing the A. J. Orndorf, down town, property with a view of becoming one of our citizens. This is a desirable property and we would extend the old lady a most cordial welcome, feeling assur ed she cannot be better suited considering the very low price asked for it. We are in receipt of news from a private source apprising us of the sad death of Mr, Al- fred Guthrie, of Osceola Al. was a most trust- ed employe on the Clearfield branch. His death was caused by jumping from a moving train and, being thrown under the cars, one of his legs was 80 badly crushed that it became necessary to amputate it. Butdeath relieved his suffering soon after the operation was per- formed. He was a sober, industrious and en- ergetic young man and leaves a wife and two small. c!ildren to mourn their loss. Mrs. Guthrie's maiden name was Amanda McMah- on, formerly of this place. To her and his small family we extend our heartfelt sympathy in this their hour of trial and bereavement. ‘Went Through a Burning Trestle. BirMiNGHAM, .

According to the best fashion papers the well dressed man of to-day wears a three, or four buttoned, cutaway sack coat, single breasted vest, buttoned slightly higher than they have been worn during the summer and trousers of medium width. In colors, the different shades of brown are selling fastest, though very fashiona- ble people are wearing many light fabrics. Hats are large in shape, and lower in the crown than they have been for some time, with rather wide, slightly curling brims. Black and brown being the most popu- lar colors for both business and dress. Tn scarfs : delicate shades of blue and brown are very much worn, but, for those who can wear them, the bril- liant reds add great beauty when worn with the popu- lar wood brown suitings. The large puffs, ascots and four in hands are popular, though English bows are much worn by those who profess to be leaders. In collars the self rolling medium heighth styles are proper while cuffs are linked, with square corners. The above is a complete description of what you should wear if you care to be in style, and why not be dressed properly when it 2osts just as little. Go to M..
