THE Biga of the Indian is the place to get
tobacco, pipes and everything in that line,
cheaper and better than anywhere else in the
county.
THE Cobbling of the gutter on the west
side of Juliana Street was begun last week.
We hope to see the work pushed to a speedy
< otiipletior, before the watering season
opens.
ACCIDENT —On Friday lastas the Dunning' S
Creek Lutheran church was being torn down,
S. Tomlinson had three ribs broken, 11.
dimmers his hand crushed and W. Philips
his foot injured by falling timbers. They
were taking the roof off, and had cut
the king beam through at one erd, when the
whole came down with a crash. They might
all have been killed.
I\ another column will be found an in
foresting report of the dedication of the
new Evangelical Lutheran Church at
Bloodv llun. The Lutheran Congregation
and indeed the whole community deserve
great credit for their zeal and liberality dis
played ON the occasion.
A PENITENTIARY BIRD— A darkey named
IJarnes was arrested on Tuesday last for ap
propriating tools. sacks Ac., from the Mill
Town mill. He had made one of the sacks
into a shirt and had it on his back at the time
of his arrest, the name of the mill still on it.
He has served three terms at Pittsburgh,
already.
SPRING SEASOX. —WiII open now in a few
days.
The Bedford Mineral Springs wc under
staud will open on the 10th—ample prepara

throng season.
The Arondale House is now encompassed
with a double row of porches, which is a
great improvement since last year. Joe is
determined to bring things up to the mark all
round.
MRS. V. B. TATE has been fitting up her
building for the accommodation of visitors
this season. It is a very pleasant situation
on .Juliana Street.
A. B. CRAMER and Lady have greatly en
larged their accommodations for guests this
summer. They have fitted up another buil
ding, erected a ten-pin-ally and beautified the
grounds and made it in every sense of the
word, a lovely place.
XEEI<S TO I>E JLNI.AHUED —The gutter
on the West side of Juliana Street from the
Court house to the river was filled to over
flowing on Monday last with an hour's
brisk rain. It is three feet wide now and
about ten iuches deep. It needs to be
made at least four feet wide and considera
i'y deeper to carry off the surplus water
during heavy rains. The water flows at the
present grade, but a steeper one might have
obviated the necessity for widening and
deepening the gutters.
THE Democracy nominated the following
ity ticket on Saturday last,
r Prothonotary—Jno. P. Heed
• Treasurer —Hugh Moore
.Sheriff, —Win Keyser
"Commissioner—George Elder
"Poor Director—George Beegle
"Auditor—O. McGirr
7he Gazette thinks we have a "fine set of
1 ins so b e knocked down" If cor men were as
easily knocked down" as the democrats, we
have been played oat long ago. Tbey
had forty pi ng on their alley last Saturday
bat somebody made three "strikes" aod a
spar of four, leaving only six standing. On
tJ'h of October w will show tbem n
beautiful "three cocked hat" out of that lot.
St. AI'GUTSK ov THE INNOCENTS.— The grand
Democratic menagerie was exhibited in this
county on Saturday last. The usual prepara
tory arrangements were made before hand.
Benzine was shipped to the various election
districts throughout thecounty.to the detriment
of the interests of an ex-sheriff and a number
of other spiritual advisers who thereby lost
sundry ten cent sales of that fluid. About
ten or fifteen gallons of fire water were sent to
the State of Sonthampton and in less than
twenty minutes, nothing was left of the ma
chine, that was drinkable, save a few iron
hoops—and still they hallooed for Moore.
The result of this liberality was about fifteen
votes in favor of the shipper, or a gallon a
one. —Heavy soakers. Wagon loads of emp
ty kegs and demijohns sucked dry as mission
ary boxes wete brought to town on Monday-
In Bedford, the weak-kneed, limber-jointed,
roarin, pugilistic meniberß of the Red-Eye
brigade and the renowned canine Hero on his
black kickcn steed, were on hand at the first
break o' day and worked hard till the wee
hours of Sunday morning, drinking candidate
rot-gut and at the same time winking memen
to mini to the man that piaid the bill. They
would Heed every ticket presented to them,
and promise to vote the same, until the thing
became a Boor to every candidate, and they
soon realized the fact, that these Sleek, Sill y
fellows would plav the TJtehl in Earnest a
Pencil' lD tickets and knock'en the Sparks
out of twenty-seven of em. And so it hap
pened; just as we predicted. The caucus ring
in Bedford Borough monopolized the ticket
trade on Saturday and elected none but those
who were in their interests, utterly disregard
ing the faithful promises and pledges they
had made to men whom on that- day they
worked to defeat. It was one of the most
bitter contests we have ever witnessed. Ly
ing, cheating, foul play in every form, hare
been resorted to. Candidates making confi
dants of leading politicians had their weakest
points exposed to their enemies and were
made victims to the lowest grades of treach
ery. The light tap on the candidate's shoul
der at 1 o'clock, with the friendly advice to
make a vote in that quarter, ten minutes af
terwards, has been repeated by the same
man, on the shoulder of his deadliest enemy,
with instructions to pluck the same fruit with
out delay.
Thus it was that some of the men who had
the 1 st claims to the nominations, were
ignomiuously defeated at the hands of their
two faced friends.
Whether those men who have heeu so out
rageously treated will allow themselves to be
buoyed up under false pretenses and made
the dupes of party despotism, or whether their
honest offended dignity and principles will
rise up and denounce those atrocities, arc
questions which time will decide. Democra
cy's love for the soldier was beautifully illus
trated. Of the whole regiment of office seek
ers only ooe w„s a soldier, and he was
•'scratched" all over the county, by the very
men who call themselves the soldier's friends.
Had he been a deserter, bounty jumper, or
butnmer. he no doubt would have been nomi
nated. Let soldiers all take warning.
If vou'd respected and honored be.
Cut loose from rotten Democracy.
WITH the advent of the "month of rives''
we have been once-more thrown into the sea
sou of hay making, pic nics and pleasure ex
cursions generally. The farmers are busily
engaged in securing their early hay crops, in
order that this branch of the husbandman's
tabor may be completed before the grain har
vest sets in. The young folks seek recrea
lion in the woods, or in fishing parties, or
in berrying excursions. This is also the
season when early vegetables are thrown into
the market, causing a general derangement
of the "internal improvements" of mankind,
and rendering medical aid a necessity. Just
at this time the Great Zingari Bitters step in
as an antidote for the various diseases arising
from the too free use of vegetables, or the
numerous ills to which farmers are exposed
during their excessive field labors, or to
which pleasure parties are subjected by their
efforts to obtain enjoyment in the country. A
supply of the bitters should be kept on hard
for use at this particular period when we are
exposed to sickness.
MYNHEER PAUL. DIETRICH, of Milwaukee,
feeling his earthly tabernacle, stored with
troubles, to be expelled, decided, afier full
enquiry and investigation, to employ Ayer's
Pills, (n his haste to purify his Dutch
stomach, he mistook the directions. 2 to 7,
and swallowed 27 for a dose. This created, ol
course, an ap-paul ing internal rebellion. Put
Paul went through the light like a hero, and
came off victor at last, with a renovated system
which he proudly exhibits as proof of the wis
dom of his choice. He advises every body to
take Doct. Ayer's Pills, but kindly advises
his friends who are ambitious of following
his example, to "pe sure and take der right
hot ion.''— Mi tinea ota Telegraph.

gaged during the past few days in tearing
down the abutment to the Court House steps.
The foundations are now laid upon which the
new stone steps are to b# erected. The work
when completed will greatly improve the ap
pearance of things about the Court House.
We have been using Seward & Bently's
Alisma a few weeks, and have come to the
conclusion that there is one preparation for

Church Dedication.
BLOODY RUN, Pa.
May 25th, 1819.
I he 23d of May 1889 will long be remem
he red by the people of Bloody Run Pa., and
especially by the members of the Evangelical
Lutheran church at this place. It was a
beautiful day. The sun shone in full splen
dor, animating all nature with his genial rays,
and gentle breezes were pleasantly ptaying
among the green foliage. It was a glorious
Sabbath day; a day peculiarly adapted for the
solemn worship of Jehovah, and for the con
seeration of houses of worship to the Triune
God. Services of (his kind were held in the
hvang< lica! Lutheran church of Bloody Run
PH., a new brick house 4O by 05 feet, com
fortable throughout, with an audience-room
sufficient to comfortably seat 850 persons and
with n basement large enough to accommo
date the same number, was appropriately
Consecrated to God. The ministers present
on the occasion were: Revs. B. Fink, 11.
Baker, G. C. Probst, J. W. Vanfossen and I'.
Doerr, pastor loci. Rev. R. Fink President
of the Allegheny Synod, preached the dedi
catory sermon from Psalms 87. 2., faithfully
and successfully as t-he sequel demonstrates,
to a crowded audience of attentive hearers.
After the sermon an effort was made to liqui
date lhc remaining debt, SBIOO dollars. Al
though the people of this congregation and
members of other denominations and the cit
izenß of Bloody Bun had done well before yet
on dedication day they did nobly. $2200
were paid and pledged for the liquida
tion of the remaining church debt, leaving
yet unprovided for SI2OO dollars. Rev. H.
Baker ol Altoona, then performed the conse
cration service. In the afternoon Rev. K.
1 ink delivered an excellent discourse from
Hebrews IX. 22. After the sermon smaller
sums of money were secured in subscriptions
and cash to the amount of SIOO dollars. The
services in the evening were conducted by
Iter. H. Bi iker, who preached a most interest
ing and eloquent sermon < o the text : "For I
am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ Ac."
Another effort was put forth to secure the re
maining unpaid $l lOO. The effort was suc
cessful li'-yond all expectation. About S7OO
were secured leaving yet a small balance o(
S-1110 to be provided for. This certainly was
a most noble and praisworthy work. S3OOO
were given to the Lord. iThe people of this
congregation are rejoiced and greatly encour
aged. Ihe entire cost of the building was
about $8,400. I").

Nature is tbe Great Physician.
This is now admitted, by the medical pro
tension as a fundamental principal of healing
science. It is wisely provided by the human
economy that whenever anything is wrong
in the physical system the natural forces of

disease. The great aim, therefore, is to
strengthen the natural powers. This has
been kept in view l,y the skilful compounders

the organs of the body. The effect of this
medicine upon the stomach, the liver sod the

NEW AND GOOD BOOKS.
Having for four yeata paat labored to improve
and enlarge ihe Jni)l IRKIt mid to eo fill it wi'h
tlio latest news that our people would have li. tie
or no need of any oilier paper, we have found that
one of the rbicf difficulties in our way baa been
that of getting a itifiicient number of subscribers
to pay the expenses necessarily incurred in mak
ing a county paper what it ought to be. Though
the Ittttnucß has a larger number of subscribers
than any other paper in the county, it still has
hut little more than half what it ought to have to
justify u in the outlay necessary to keep it up
to the st.Ltidar 1 at which we have steadily aimed.
The iNQ' tacfc will continue to l-c the exponent
nted advocate of u thorough-going Republicanism,
and of retrenchment, economy and reform in the
adtni listration of the affairs of county, state and
nation. It will-also, as usual, contain a larger
amount of late news and carefully selected gener
■ reading motter than any other paper in this
Congressional District.
An important political campaign is just about
to !*■ pin, involving the election of a Governor,
Supreme Judge, State Senator, Member of the
Legislature, and a full county ticket. The State
and District tickets arc of the highest importance
as there will ltmi apportionment made at the
next Session of the Legislature. With such an
important campaign befue us, it is highly desira
ble to put the Ikqdirir in the bauds of every
Republican in the county. We therefore call up
on our friends to help us put it at once into the
hands of as many of our people as possible. As
a further inducement to exertion we have conclu
ded to offer the following desirable
PRKMU'MS :
For one new sn -crib' r and #2.00 in advance, wo
will give or.e number ot Scott's novels. 20 cent
edition.
Fi" two new subscriber- and $4.00 in advance, wc
will give ono number of Scott's novels, 20 cent
e 1., and one number of Dlckcp'e, 23 cent od.
For three new subscribers and $0 oft in advance,
two Nos. of Scott and one No. o' Dickens.
For four new subscribers and SB.OO in advance,
one eopy of "Otic Hundred Selections,'' bound
in cloth, or four Nos. Diukens
For live new subscribers and SIO.OO in advance,
five Nos. Dickon's works, or one cipt f Ten
nyson's or Hum's poems, worth $1.25.
For six new subscribers and $12.00 iniilvauco,
one copy of Diamond Dickens, Longfellow or
Wbittier, worth 51.50.
Fortwcnty new subscribers and SIO.OO i" advance,
a complete edition of Dickon's w irks (23 vols,
bound in paper.)
For twenty five new subscribers and $30.00 in ad
vanec, one large family bible, bound in beat
morocco, full gilt.
For thirty new subscribers and $60.00 in adtance
one copy of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary,
i Ins-rated edition with 3000 engraving*, and
worth sl2 00.
The above premiums are offered for new ad
vance paying subscribers. Dieken's weiks are
mode tbe standout for premiums, but we wiil sub
stitute any book on the shelves of the In juircr
jto'il, ftant of the corresponding price whenever
desired. Parties unable to raise clubs large
enough to entitle Tbem to a eopy of the bible or
dictionary will be allowed tbo premium for the
number they do raise, and can have cither of the
above books by paying the difference.

ALT II AM WATCIIKS.
For a few months past we have advertised
the above Watches at extremely low prices,
and the result has been most satisfactory.
Our plan has been to sell the genuine WAL
THAM WATCH, in Solid Gold or Silver Ca
ses only, and at a very small profit; giving
the purchaser every opportunity of examina
tion and comparison, and with the under
standing that if the Watch does not prove
satisfactory, it can he exchanged or the mo
ney refunded.
T'beSe Watches pre, without exception, the
most perfect specimens of fine mechanism
ever produced in any country. Each and ev
ery part is made by machinery of the most
delicate and elaborate construction.
Compared with foreign watches, they pos
sess many advantages, excelling not only in
principle and finish, hut still more in their
reliability as time-keepers. As an indica
tion of the prices we submit the following:
Silver limiting Watches, $lB 00
Cold Hunting Watches, IS karat.... 80 00
Hold Hunting Watches, ladies' sixe, 7o OO
Wo often receive orders direct from our
advertisement, but. prefer that every one
should send first for cur descriptive price
list, which explains all the dilFerent kinds,
tells the weight and quality of the cases, and
gives prices of each. This we will forward
to any one on application, and it will be found
very useful in making a selection.
He cry Watch is warranted by special eer
Hficate from the American Watch Co.
We send tbem by express to any address.
Allow the purchaser to open the package and
examine the Watch before paying, and if af
terwards it does not prove sati factory, it can
be exchanged or tbe money will he cheerfully
refunded.
Please state that you saw this in the Ixqui-
Address, in full, HOW AKL) & CO.,

Our establishment is well known to the
residents of New York and vicinity, but that
those at a distance may uddress us with con
fidence, we invite attention to the following
editorial notices:
From the New York Evangclis', May 28, IS6S.
We had occasion some time since to refer
to these celebrated American Watches which
are well known as reliable time-keepers. \Ve
cannot do better now than to call the atten
tion of our readers to the card of Howard &
Co., by which it will be seen that persons
!rom a distance can order any grade of these
Watches by express, at greatly reduced prices.
From the N. Y. Independent, June 16, 13BS.
We invite special attention to the adver
tisement ot Messrs. Howard A Co., who offer
the celebrated Walibam Watches not only at
the lowest prices, hut will send them to tiny
part of the country by express, and give the
nurchasar the privilege to examine the Watch
before t .tying for it. We have known How

ly commend them to the confidence ot our

one-half the profit now paid by customers. The
People often coin plain of Bedford prices being
