The Scranton Republican of Monday last,
states that U. r. rowler has the small pox
and Is now lu the pest house at that place
It further Mates that "Fowler came here
from Hlooinsbiirg, Columbia county, a few
days ago, where lie took particular pains to
visit friends who had had the small pox and
was even reckless enough to visit the pest
house." Stuff and nonsense. Nobody In
Hloonislmrg has had the small pox for nearly
two months, and there Is not now, nor has
there ever been, a pest house here. Thu pub
ncatlon or such statements tend to convey
the impression that Hlooinsbiirg is not free
from the disease, and, consequently, is not
a safe place to visit. The contrary is the
truth.
All owners of real estate should remember
that under the laws nf this Commonwealth
all deeds and conveyances which are not re
corded six months after they are made will
be regarded as void and fraudulent against
any subsequent purchaser, and hence it is of
the highest importance that our tanner
frien ds should examine their old deeds and
see if the ltecordet's certificate is indorsed
upon them, with the time of record, book
and pagu given. If thu certificate is not in.
dorsed the deed Is not recorded. Persons
having unrecorded deeds lit their possession
will have an excellent opportunity to bring
or send them In at the next session of the
countv court.

may give such liberal encouragement to the
plan as to ensure its success. If the course
proves profitable as well as pleasurable this
season, it can lie repeated next winter ami
regularly thereafter, as bus been done in Her

An Important question has just been de
cided by the Supreme Court of the United
States in the case of the appeal of Mr. J.
11. Stalk from the decision of the District
Couit at Williamsport. The suit It.volvcd n
matter of some eighteen thousand dollars,
the plaintiff being the Second National Hank
of Wllkcs-llarre. -Mr. Stark had indorsed
certain notes, and the drawee having failed,
proceedings were Instituted against the en
dorser, who In defense alleged usury on the
part of the plaintiff. Thu judgment of the
District Court was against Mr. Stnrk, on the
ground that a charge of usury could not be
maintained against National Hanks In Penn
sylvania under the iiOth section of the
National Hanking Act, as many of the State
banks bad the right to issue currency under
their charters and to charge discount rates
ranging from six to ten per cent, and In some
caes even more than this. The judgment
of tiie District Court has now been ulllrmcd
by the highest court of appeal. The question
Is similar to that Involved In the case of
Tiffany vs. the National Hank of Missouri,
18th Wallace -10!), and decided by Mr. Jus
lieu Strong. It contains a principle of great
importance to business men generally, and
establishes the fact that he who contracts
with a National Hank for a high rate of In
terest can not escape the obligations by rais
ing the question of usury. Scranton Republican.

"Mv Cleraldlne" is not the best work of
Hartley Campbell's pen, but It is a very in
teresting play, nnd was effectively presented
by Mr. Power's company last Tuesday even,
big. There are many dramatic scenes re
quiring skillful acting, and these are agreea
bly relieved by light and humorous passu-
gcs. The plot Is cleverly drawn and well
malntuined through the live acts. Mr. J. F.
Ward was as happy hi his rendition of the
character of Teddy Qrcagan as in that of Jliy
yint in "Dr. Clyde," although It does not af
ford as much scope for ills peculiar abilities.
Mr. Power did justice to the part of Phil Cur
roll, as did also Mr. Caine as JTcShant and Mr.
Wilson as Mr. Creayan. Miss Carey as r7cr-
Mine and Miss Herndon as Mury Carroll are
very acceptable emotional actresses and
played their respective roles with taste and
power. Miss Herndon is however somewhat
stagy at times. The other parts were ren-
tiered agreeably, The company is well bal
anced and is above the average of traveling
troupes. Their rendition of "My Geraldine"
was the best dramatic effort of the season.
Thu attdlencu on Tuesday night was not so
large as the merits of thu company and play
deserved. Should Mr. Power and his troupu
pay us another visit it is probable that there
would be few empty seats in the hall. So
deserving a band of Thespians .should meet
with substantial support.

Important lu Fruit Ounei'H.
V e have heen handed the lollowiiig, says
the Williamsport Sun und Jlanner, with the
request to publish. The points here Involved
have been the source of quarrels and litiga
tion front time Immemorial : Two persons
own hinds separated by a line fence, which
is common property between the two parties.
One has an apple tree on his side of the fence,
whose limbs overhang the fence of the other.
Apples fall on either side. The question
often nsUcd is, Do the apples that fall on
one's land belong to one or thu other, or to
both? This subject lias been several times
discussed, with some contradictory decisions
and Judgments, but the rules are now pretty
well established. If the stem or trunk of the
tree grows so close to tho line that parts of
its actual body extend hi each, neither owner
can cut It down without the consent of the
other, nnd the fruit Is to be equitably divided.
If the Btem of the tree stands wholly within
thu boundary line of the owner hu owns the
whole tree with Its product, although tin
roots and branches extend Into the property
of thu other. There was tin old rule of law
that the latter might claim front the yield of
the tree as much as would bo an offset for
thu nourishment it derived from his estate,
which is obsolete. The law gives the owner
on whose laud the tree stands the right to cut
it down at Ids pleasure and to pluck all the
fruit from It while it stands. In New Yorli
State the courts liavu decided that trespass
for assault and battery would lie hy the own
er of thu tree against the owner of the land
over which Its branches extended If he pre
vented the owner of the tree, by personal vl
olence, from reaching over and picking thu
fruit growing upon these branches while
standing on the fence dividing the lauds
Tho owner of the land over which the branch'
es extend may lop tho branches close to his
line. He may so dig down and cut the roots
square with his Hue, if hu so elects In plain
terms, If no portion of thu trunk Is within
his line he may refuse all trespass of the
tree on his premises, cither above the ground
or below It. Hut if he gives thu ttce license
cither to extend Its roots under the soil or to
hang Its branches over his ptcmiscs hu doc
not thereby gain any right to its fruit. He
cannot pick It for himself nor lulcrfcro with
the picking by the owner so long as thu hit
ter remains in the tree or on the feme which
divides the property. This right to the fruit
does not, however, penult the other to come
upon the soil on the other side of the line to
gather tho fruit, nnd all thu fruit which falls

STOVES.
Cold weather is near at hand and already many arc looking
around for stoves. The manufacturers have been over-crowded with
orders, and it is almost impassible to get them. We have already re
ceived several and arc daily adding to our stock. Owing to the
universal satisfaction the Argand has given we still keep it as our
leading base heating stove, and if you wish to see a perfect beauty
call and look at this year's pattern; ft little high in price it's true, but
in this age the people demand handsome stoves and the more
handsome they arc the more they cost. We have a variety of otber
very nice stoves at prices within the reach of all. The Gold Medal
is the largest and handsomest base heating stove for the money
brought to this town. In 1879 we introduced Sppar's new Silver
Moon Heater for heating two or more rooms and owing to the great
satisfaction they have given, our trade has steadily increased on
them. We warrant every one to giro perfect satisfaction and have
got to hear tho first word of complaint or take one back. For ease
of management, economy of fuel, great draft and radiating powers,
they stand without an equal. Our long experience together with
that of Mr. Isaiah Hagenbuch, who lias charge of our Stove and
Tinware Department, has enabled us to study the wants of the peo
ple and make our selections accordingly. We cordially invito all in
want of Stoves to give us a call before purchasing elsewhere, and ex
amine our stock which wc shall consider no trouble to show you.
Stove repairs of all kinds furnished to order, grates and lire brick
for the common cook stoves constantly on hand.

llalVs Journal of Health, referring to con-
sumption, makes the following important
statement:
"Consumntlou usually beeins with a sllnht
dry cough In the morning, then, on going to
licit getting more and more lrcuucnt, witu
more and more phlegm, increasing debility,
thinness oi lleslt, shortness ot urcatli, and
quickness of pulse. In fatal cases its aver.
ago is nuoui two years: nence the import
mice of arresting the disease at as early a
stage as possible, and the sooner rational
means nro employed for this purpose the
greater the chance of success. The disease
is owing to an irritation commencing in the
throat ami extending to the lungs, so that
their action Is interfered with, and the blood
does not receive sulllclcnt oxygen to purify
it. Tho most marked sign of lung disease is
emaciation; and the most positive indication
ot returning health is increase in weight.
So speaks Hall's Journal of Health, and we
may add that in desncratc cases: and. In fact.
in all cases of consumption, or troubles of

be obtained and a permanent cure effected

lungs, a medicine Known tor moro than uiir.
ty-tlvo yenrs as an unfailing remedy for
coughs, colds, bronchitis and all pulmonary
and pectoral diseases. That the worst cases
of consumption have been cured by the use
of Hall's Balsam has been attested to by the
thousands who have used it, or who have
been cognizant of its wonderful medical ef
