Attest : II. V. White, Sec'y.
The grand jury last week ignored sever-
al bills against tramps without healing all
the witnesses for the commonwealth, and
a petit jury acquitted tho only tramp who
wns Indicted. Is it to be understood
from this that the trump law is not to be
enforced In this county? Tho law was
passed after the tramp nuisance became
intolerable, and was necessary for the pro
tectlon of the public against the demands
of lazy and Impertinent vagrants. It may
be that these jurors thought that if it be
came known Hint tramps would bo put in
the jail and kept for several weeks at pub
lie expense that they would come here in
great numbers in order to bo fed. If this
be the proper view, it is singular that since
tho arrests wcro made scarcely a tramp has
been here. But If It becomes known that
they will not be convicted, it seems to us that
the actlcn of tho jury is equivalent to an
invitation to tramps to come hero for a
brief sojourn in jail, having tho assuranco
that no sentence will be passed upon them.
What wa needed was the conviction of at
least one tramp, and the Imposition of tho
heaviest penally allowed by law, and then
there would have been no further costs for
the county to pay for keeping tho prisoners
from tlio time of arrest until court.

as follows i
Tho initiation feu of ono dollar must ho

to tho dny of the annual meeting, but can.
not voto unless nil arrearages aro paid.

cate of Perpetual Membership, which cer

of tho association.
It is proposed to change thu tlmo of tho

May to tho third Saturday In January, aud
to change tho quorum from twelve to

The claim of the Republican that It Is tho

use of plates In printing lias becomo n very
common thing, hut this paper has not ad
opted them permanently, Having a great
deal of Job work on hand, nnd a new ap
prentice, wo have used them for a few
weeks back, nnd (hall use them hereafter
whenever tho necessities of the ofDcu re
quire. Our neighbor with the samo num
ber of hands ns we employ, finds plenty of
tlmo to set up their entire pnper, and give
tho hands a half day off cvo-y Snturday
besides. If wo had nothing to do but set

ful : The roof of the Court House Is In a

all necessary painting should bo done in

We report the jail, owing lo its surround

may bo mentioned the allowance of the
swccnlnes from tho cells to remain until
tho mould gathers upon them, and tho cor-
tidors unswept. Wo recommend to the
Sheriff that ho requiro his employees to Inv
prove the condition of the jail as to clcanli-
ness, for sanitary reasons. Wo recommend
that tho coping on tho wall of the jail should
be fixed and that tho door into tho yard on
the north sldu of thu jail bo repaired so that
the prisoners can not escape when taking
exercise. Wo believe and recommend that
the pilsoncrs do havo at least somo out-
door exercise dally. Wo recommend that

lion requiring new llooring. Wo also do -

Communicated.
Died near Van Camp, on tho 4th lnst.,
John C. Yost, aged 23 years, 2 months and
10 days,
This young man nnd his brother Nevin
A., were engaged in teaching at Plymouth,
I and wcro among the first who were seized
by tho epidemic of that ill-fated town.
Over ono week previous to their return
home, they wcro feeling badly and scarce-
ly able to teach. They were obliged finally
I to quit their post of duty and return home j
I ono to die, tho Jotbcr wo hope to recover.
The death of this young man has cast a
1 gloom over tho Van Camp community.
I John was a robust, social and intelligent
young man. Being a leading spirit lu tho
neighborhood, lie did much by his example
I and precept to impart a moral and rcllg-
tons sentiment to his associates. Having
spent the last few years In tho school room
either ns pupil or teacher, ho camo lu con
I tact with many young people, who became
attached to him j for to know him was but
to lovo him His untimely death has awak-
ened sympathy and grief in mauy hearts,
I Wo can scarcely reallzo how much wo aro
attached to others until they aro separated
from us by death. Though cut down in
the prlmo of life, he will still live lu tho
memory of his many endeared af ociatcs
who will carry on their heart, the badgo of
mourning, but will also cherish the hope of
mcctlug each other beyond tho river of
death. It is said that tho Intelligence of
his death produced thu profoundest grief
among Ids already saddened scholars ut
Plymouth.
This young brother was a member of tho
Reformed Church at Bt. James. Iu Infancy
ho was consecrated by his parents to tto
Lord in holy baptism. In youth-hood ho
took a course of Catechetical Instruction
and at the ugo of 13 years ho received tho
solemn right of confirmation by tho laying
on of Imiuls. From that tlmo he had been
an active worker in the church, Ue adorn
cd his profession with a holy walk und
conversation, His pastor was proud of
him as a church member. Rut his place lu
tho church, 'Subbath School, choir and
prayer meeting Is now vacant. Ho has
however only passed from tho church rll-
itant to tho church triumphant. Who
among tho St., James young men will tako
his placo and prove themselves to, .worthy
of commendation? Mny his mantle fall up.
on many.
Ills funeral look place on Wednesday,
and he was Inferred In tho St. James Ccm.
ctery. The attendance wns unusually latgc.
The presenco of his associates from near
and far Indtcato that he was loved much
and loved by many. If 'tears havo an ut
terance, they proclaimed on this occasion
that there were many sad and sorrowing
hearts picscnt. And when the final view
of tho remains was given, many seemed
to tnrry at the visage of ono so dear! as
though they wcro loath to give the final
farewell look. Tlio coffin was mounted by
a beautiful cross of flowers sent by friends
from Bloomsburg. Before death entered
that onco happy household tho unbroken
family circle numbered six brothers and
two sisters. But now thcro Is a missing
link which however will jolu them to the
family above. As In tho ascension of our
Lord tho human family Is represented In
honven by llio glorified humanity of Christ,
so we trust this onco happy nnd united
family Is now represented In heaven by a
part of Itself the absent one. To the be-
reaved family nnd mourning friends we
hereby extend our sympathies nnd prayers.
May wo nil heed with conscious regard tho
solemn admonition s "Be yo nlso ready,
for In such nn hour ns yc think not tho
son of man comcth."
Ilcnton.
The com planting has subsided. As long
as you hear tho whistle of frogs and liz
zards keep your seed corn In tho garret.
Still some oats to sow.
Thus far we have hii'd a wet cold Mny,
which Is said to presage plenty of grain and
hay.
Fishlngcrcek was very much swollen
from tho rain last, Thursday.
Our hucksters are making their regular
trips up tho river, but they do not care
to stop much at Plymouth.
Our merchants at Cambra have replen
ished their stores with new stock of sum
mer goods.
Tho late rains have increased tlio pros
pects for good crops.
As we have a peaceable and quiet com
munity, wc havo very raro occasions to re
port arrests, murder, suicide and pugilis
tic exhibitions.
Several of our younir men nro eagerly en
gaged in trying to obtain a mothcr-in-lnw'.
In 1870 aider leaves had grown to such
an extent by tho 5th of April so as to make
the bushes look quito green. Not n bud
this year to be seen on May 1st. Ono month
behind lime.
Ground wns broke for another new dwell
ing nt Cambra. It Is an enterprising town.
We thought John Smith lived in Benton,
but wo find Hint he lives all over the world.
And If he is ns fine a man all over tho
world as ho Is In Benton, tho world has no
cause to regret that he should have lived
nil over it.
Samuel KrlcKbauin is now living at Cam
bra with his son William H. Ho Is grow-
lnc very feeble In body and mind. He
even betrays an older look than he repre
sents. If he lives he will bo 80 at the closu
of the year.
Wo learn that John Baker the blacksmith
at the Presbyterian church at Ravcncreck,
contemplates moving to Delaware. This
will naturally give more custom to our elc
gant blacksmith A. R. Stlnc.
Wm. R. Campbell, n student at Union
Theological Sumlnary, 503 70th St., New
York City, preparatory to tho Presbyterian
ministry, informed mo by letter that ho
wns appointed to preach during vacation
at Rohrsburg and Ravcncreck churches.
Those appointments seem to bo vacant.
Mr. Campbell Is a very thorough student,
and promises to make nn nblo and energet
ic minister. He will preach at Ravcncreck
on Sunday evening May 17th, lnst.
We have not discharged our coal fire yet.
