The Sanitarium Is undergoing a thor

wonderfully. Dr. Shaltuck proposes to
make this institution a pleasant resort not
only for the Invalid who seeks rest, and
skilled medical treatment, but for any who
desire a pleasant and healthy retreat during
the summer, from the cares of business or
the heat and Hurry of the city. It is an in
stitution that is worthy of the hearty sup
port of all our citizens, for when it Is well
patronized, its patrons will leave consider
able amounts of money in l ho town, in one
way or another. Those having invalid
friends should leconimend the Sanitarium
to them.
"The Flying Dutchman" is a play found
ed on the legend of the Dutch captain who
trying to double the cape in the fnco of a
heavy gale, swore to accomplish his pur
pose, even though lie should have to sail
till doomsday. For this lie was doomed to
roam forever over the ocean. In "The
New Flying Dutchman," "Captain Vnn
derdecken," of the phantom ship, is re
leased from the penalty of his hasty oath
by the love ot ".Madeline," a child of the
wreck, The production of tho drama last
evening by Flockton & Edmunds' Combi
nation was successful throughout. The

The last grand jury recommended an

There can be no doubt that something

poisonous. It Is within the power of the
county commissioners to take steps to
wards carrying out the recommendation of
he grand jury, nnd if in their discretion
they see lit to do this, of course they will
net cuutiously and wisely nnd see that nil
Hint the law requires to be done, shall bo
done properly nnd in time. There must be
no moro awarding of contracts to the

that will result In Impeding, If not stop

now practically out of debt, and the ex

ngalnst Christian Slockbcrgcr in tho Court
of Common Pleas of Lehigh County. Exe
cution process Issued and the sheriff levied
upon n large quantity of personalty nnd
properly used In cnrrylng on tho business
of brewing. Stockbergcr's wife, however,
Interferes, claiming the property levied
upon ns. her own. An Issue was found
under the Sheriff's Interpleader act to try
the title to tho property, nnd on tho trial
the facts proved were about ns follows:
That by tho will of Mrs. Stockbergcr's for
mer husband, nil his property Including tho
nrllcles levied upon by the sheriff, wcro
left to his wife. She continued the busi
ness until her marriage with Stockbcrgcr.
She then hnd the license of the saloon
changed from her uamo to that of her bus
bund, had his name put upon all of tho
signs, permitted Stockbcrgcr to draw
checks In the course of business, nnd left
tho bank account lu his name nnd under
his control. Tho execution creditors asked
the Common Pleas Judge to charge that,
under this stnto of facts, the wlfo could not
set up separate ownership to tlio Injury of
creditors. The Court, however, refused to
Instruct the jury Hint a married womnn
could so loso her title to personal property
clearly her own before marriage. The jury
found a verdict in fuvor of the wife. The
Supremo Court nfllrms tills judgment of
tho Common Plens of Lehigh County in a
per curiam. The Court says : "The fact
that a husband acts ns the agent for his
wife In buying nnd selling nnd Investing
her money, does not, without her consent,
transfer her property to him. The pupose
of the net of 1848 is to protect a married
woman in the enjoyment of her separnto
property. It is not necessary that that
property should be exclusively In her pos
session. Judgment nlllrmed."

l''lHltliiKcrccIc,
A few F.varti coxcuitmxa punuo iioads,
Our township has had a burdensome
road tax for years past, and at Hie present
timo there Is nearly $000 due different
parlies for mnking new roads nnd over
work. Now, I think it right to grant or
lay a money tux to straighten up road mat
ters as soon as possible. I have read tho
statement or settlement of the county
finances for a number of yenrs back. It is
enormous, tho sum of money that is paid
out for viewing, surveying nnd damages.
There Is a number of roads right here in
this section of country, nnd I presume it is
moro or less tho case all over the county,
that were put through years ago nt a big
cost of money to tho public which are used
but little by the public. They serve ns a short
cut, occasionally, to benefit one or two
persons. There are parlies nil over tho
county getting up petitions for public
rouds and outlets, and the motive of near,
ly all the parties is to liavo the roads cut
up their land so they can get big damages.
Now, these aro facts. Thero aro too many
roads granted, nnd I say It Is high timo
there Is n stop put to it, and all other need,
less expenses that ourcounty treasury Is
drained of. There nro parlies who will get
up petitions for public outlets when they
have a private outlet, with only tho en.
cumbranco of a gate or pair of bars to
open, when It is only from 15 to 20 rods
from tho public road to their own land. If
It Is on others' land, as long as they have
no objections to his passing in nnd out,
why should tlio public bo heavily taxed?
Other parties present petitions to vacato
and relay a long stretch of road nt n largo
expense and but little or no benefit to tho
public, There Is no use of It and I opposo
Hand nil wrong lu every department.
Thcsu parlies will get up a petition and usk
neighbors and friends to sign It and natur
ally they hate to refuse and so there nro
too many cases put through and granted,
at a large and unnecessary expense to tho
county,

Communicated.
MitssiM. EniTons :
Iu your last week's issue you publish,
cd an article under the bend of Rrfonn
which cannot fail to meet the approval of
every good honest Democratic voter in tho
county. It Is gratifying to see your paper
is with the honest people, trying to bring
about reform nnd break up the corruption
with which our county Is sorely nflllcted.
That we greatly need reform no honest
person will attempt to deny, nnd tho lion
est voters with the aid of the press can
bring it about, notwithstanding corruption
has so long been tolerated that it hns root
cd Itself deeply luto every election district
in the county.
There ure several methods by which re
form can be accomplished, for lnitnnce,
the candidate who travels through the
county treating nnd leaving money nt
every hotel and saloon to treat others, glv.
ing money to tlio political bummers to buy
up tho scalawags, hiring conveyances to
haul voters to tho polls, sending demi
johns of whiskey nnd kegs of beer to cer
tain parties to influence voters, giving
presents, loaning money and taking no in
terest, paying bills and furnishing free
dinners which nro n violation of the
rules governing our Democratic County
Conventions ns well as the law, can bo
stopped by arresting the guilty parties and
sending them to the penitentiary whero
they belong. I would recommend that
our worthy county Chairman oiler to pay
a liberal reward to those who will furnish
information sufficient to convict those en
gaged iu the corruption. Tho necessary
expenses incurred in breaking it up and
bringing about reform should bo placed
with tlio legitimate campaign expenses and
defrayed by the successful candidates.
Whenever the corrupt class is taught that
our liberty, idearly purchased by the prec.
ions blood of our ancestors In the Revolu
tionary struggle, must bo respected, then,
nnd not till then, will the ballot box bo
kept pure.
For the benefit of candidates I will glvo
tho oath required to bo taken before nny
ono elected can enter upon the pertorm
auco of his duty, which Is ns follows : "I
do solemnly swenr (or nfflrm) that I will
support, obey and defend the constitution
of tho United States nnd the constitution
of this commonwealth, and that I will dis
charge tlio duties of my ofllco with fidell
ty ( that I have not paid or contributed, or
promised to pny or contribute, cither dl.
rcctly or Indirectly, nny money or other
valuable thing, to procure my nomination
or election (or appointment), except for
necessury and proper expenses expressly
authorized by law j that 1 have not know.
Ingly violated any election law of this
commonwealth, or procured It to bo dono
by others In my behalf that I will not
knowingly receive, directly or Indirectly,
any money or other valuable thing for tho
performance or non-performanco of any
act of duty pertaining to my olllce, other
than the compensation allowed by law."
Any person violating this oath Is guilty of
perjury mid subject to a flue not exceeding
one thousand dollars and Imprisonment.
Tho lawful expenses aro only for printing,
travelling, circulating Information to the
public, holding political meetings and con.
vcntlons,
Tho law Is plain and clear and If not
strictly observed so that our county may bo
reformed wo might us well throw up the
spongo and let down the bars, for It Is
high timo there is Reform,
Yours Respectfully,
J. B.

Tho groundhog takes the medal this
winter ns n weather prophet leaving Ven
nor nnd tho rest of his clan In tho back
ground. It Is very doubtful though wheth
or the peoplo will give him the medal, ns
thero nre very fow In favor of these cold
blustering days. Old pcttl.foggcrs, who,
when wo aro enjoying the delightful
wenlhcr of nn Indian Summer, always
sigh for tho real, genuine article, claiming
summer wenlhcr In winter months tin
healthy, no doubt welcomed tho weather
of tho past fow weeks. Not gainsaying
their wisdom having older heads, wc pre
fer Indian Summer every time,
Tho P. & R, Company paid their em
ployees last week. Tho Individuals In
this vicinity will pay to-morrow, (Satur

Small.pox Is again creating considerable
excitement In Ashland. About ten cases
have been reported this week, nnd If the
present cold weather continues wc may ex
pect as many moro this week. The Board
of Health and Sisters of Charity nro doing
everything nvnllaUo to prevent the spread
of tho disease.
Dr. Marshall of Ashland, vaccinated
seven hundred and fifty persons In less
than two weeks.
Michael Brcnnnn, who has bceu living
In the West for over six years, arrived in
town on Saturday.
Gen. William Lilly, of Mauch Chunk,
was In town on Friday. Tho citizens band
tendered him a serenade In the evening.
Charles Murphy Bpcnt ii few dnys In
Philadelphia last week.
Tho storm on Friday night played sad
havoc with the telegraph wires in tills sec
tlon j some were broken while others were
crossed and rccrossed. Tho operators say
business was at a stand still until noon on
Saturday.
Lilly, Lcntz & Co., who have extensive
works here, will build a mammoth storo nt
Meycrsvllle in tlio spring.
Tho "Deuce of Hearts" played to a fair
nudlcnco In Ashland on Saturday cvcnlig.
They gave gcnornl satisfaction. The In
clement weather prevented the usual num.
ber of our young men from being present.
The people of town should by all means
have their children and themselves vacci.
nated, as it is the only preventative that
wo can use against smallpox. From
present reports it is coming very near us,
a case being reported in Buck's patch.
One of the ropes nt Cent rail a colliery
gavo out on Monday. Only one sido of
the breaker woikcd on Tuesday so they
were unable to send out tho usual amount
of coal.
John Crane, while driving across the
plane at Centralia colliery one day last
week, had Ids wagon broken in pieces by
being struck with n car. He was very
fortunate in not having his horse killed.
He threatens to bring a suit for damages
against the company.
Thomas Marsh of Girardvllle, who on
tho morning of the 20th of February last,
cut his throat, whereby he severed the
windpipe, died on Sunday evening. His
case was watched closely, and the attend
ing physicians were of divided opinions.
Dr. Carr, from the first, arguing that it
was impossible for him to live. Other
doctors, with equal firmness, maintained,
after examining the wound nnd finding the
windpipe knitting, Hint be would surely
recover. The gnsh In his throat was sew
ed twice but cacli time, on account of mor
tification, setting in, the silken cord rotted.
What was especially remarkable about the
case was that tho unhappy man had from
the moment of the committal of the deed ,
his full senses and wns able to speak until
his dying hour. Ho was married for tho
second time, to a Mrs. Dowden of Ashland,
who, with a family of grown-up children,
survive him.
