On Batureiay lost nbout ono o'clock as William Hughes was coming from A. 11. Stewart's storo at Orangevllle, across the street towards Long's hotel, n man mined Clemuel Wooelln Wells rushed out from the sldo door ot tho hotel, nnd exclaiming "You I've got you where I want you," mado n dash, for Hughes. As soon as Hughes saw Wells ho turned to go toward Snyder it Slcppy's storo as If to avoid him, but as Wells was almost upon Mm ho turned around nnd told Wells that ho was nrmed and that If ho attempted to Injuro him ho (Hiighet) would shoot him. Wells paid no attention to this, but rushed lu and struck Hughes a powcrlul.blow on tho right side of the face, dropping Mm to his knees. Heror Hughes could get up Wells was upon him nnd began choking nud poundlmr him unmercifully. Hughes lay on his back in the mud about the centre of the point where .Main nnd Pino streets cross, nnd Wells was on top of him. As the second blow was struck, Wells, cither with his feet or Ids kneos jumped on Hughes' breast and then began pounding him In the face. Shortly after tho scufllo commenced theru was a report of a rcvol ver but Wells did not heed It. Then sever al mure reports followed In inpld success. ion, but Wells did not let go his hold upon ungues- inroai until me last shit was fired, when his grip relaxed, nnd throwing ins head to one side, ho rolled off ol Hughes, on to his back In tho road dead John W. Masteller n clerk nt . It. Stew, nil's store nnd several others saw tho nirrny, nnd so did Amos Neyhnrd, con stable, but they were too fur nwny to in tertere. After the shoctlng Hughes got up, and gave himself up to the constnble, nnd handed tho revolver to J. M. Long. 'the body wns carried from tho street to the pavement, and, soon after was taken into tho Hotel parlor. There wero four bullet holes found. One ball struck the left cheek nt the jaw, and camo out near tho cheek bono j nnother entered the neck on tho right sldo; nnother was lu the groin, nnd the fourth in tho nbdomcn, After being viewed by a coroner's jury the body was delivered to tho friends of the deceased and taken to Berwick Saturday evening, where it was buried on Monday. A jury was empanuelled on Saturday evening by II. J. Conner Esq. nctiDg coioner, and consisted of the following persons : A. M. Dewitt, A. W. C. Keller, M. L. ICliue, J. E. Hayhurst, Perry Delong and William Fisher. Tho following wit nesses were examined : Dr. A. 1. Stod. dard, J. W. Masteller, Samuel Adams, Joseph Crawford, Freeman Bellas nnd Albert Yost. The jury found that deceas ed came to his death from wounds inflicted by a revolver in the hands of William Hughes. Alter giving himself up Mr. Hughes came to Bloomsburg with the constablo and a commitment was made out by J. M. Clark Esq. A writ of habeas corpus was taken out by Mr. Buckalcw, counsel for Hughes, and at 7 o'clock In the evening a hearing was held before Judge Elwell, District Attorney Billmeyer uppcariug for the Commonwealth, and Mr. Uuckalcw for the deleudant.

WHAT MAI1K THE TItOUItl.U. William Hughes is one of the contract ors on the 11. it S. luud. Ills home is In Huzleton, but he is wc.1 known all through this section of the state. His mother lives ut Oraugevillc, and it Is said that his sister who also lives theie, was at a window near by and saw the scuttle nnd its terrible re sult. Clem Wells lived at Berwick. His moth er, two brothers nnd one sister living thoro are very estimable people, lie was about 23 years old. lie was engaged in driving a team belonging to Samuel Adams of Ber wick at the ruilroad work above Orange ville. For sumo reason ho was discharged by Mr. Hughes on Friilny morning, and on that evening he. camo down here to the Exchange hotel, and followed Hughes Into the wash-room aud struck him in the face after some altercation. Hughes rnn out Into the olllco pursued by Wells, nnd stumbled on a spitoou und fell down, .when Wells tried to bent him, but wns prevented by the bystanders. He had previously made threats nf violence agnlnst Hughes, anil from all reports was lying In wait for him at Orangevllle. He Is said to havo been a desperate character, and when In. toxlcated he was tho terror of Berwick. He was n man ot powerful frame, and Hughes was no match for him. The latter had said la Stewart's store a few moments beforo the affray that bo knew Wells could whip three men like him. Hughes left llloomsburg about 12 o'clock on Saturday to look ufter his work at tho railroad. lie tied his horse on the street, went Into Stewart's store after some tobacco, uud was on his way to get his horse to go on up to his work when ho was attacked by Wells.

Every time we take up our ni'ii to write about dress-stuffs we think "What can w say of a storeful of stuffs of every sort and degree !" It was hard enough before to pick out the news ; but this tall there is everything here. To mention any 'particular dress stuff seems to imply that every thing isn't here. When wants are so various how can we ex pect to do anything better than say you will find whatever you want at the proper counter, There's the question of prices, There arc other Stores. They are not asleep, I nay nrQ ie liunnn liu mifl RnillO. f)f Vmi. 1,,1-V.M " -," - J ' They would like you to think they sell things for less than we. Now and then they pluck up courage and do it. Lose money DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. tfcitnwltcr'ss. very likely. But better to lose a little money once in a while, they think, than to lose their hold on you altogether. So once in a while they beat us. Not very often or long. Costs money. Cheaper to "play," as the children do. You can't al ways tell who is beating by what you read in the papers. So, perhaps, there's no better way than to shop and keep shopping. You know the old cry that we -were underselling every body. Trade was good-for-nothing. Philadelphia gone to the bow-wows. Why, we've actually felt compelled in self defense to say "We do not un dersell. We only sell as low as we can." If somebody else sells lower, he is the underseller. Wonder who that is 1 Queer world this ! Queer city ! Queer people ! Nobody wants to be an "underseller" and everybody trying to under sell. We are like the rest. We'd be ashamed to be doing nothing bigger or better than simply un derselling. We sell as low as we can. That's what we are doing in dress-stuffs ; but there's nothing new in that. And yet we're actually paying the paper good money to tell of it. Queer ! Very queer ! Our odd lots and remnants of dress-stuffs all at one counter, gathered every day from all over the store, are a storeful of dress-stuffs ; and in more than one respect they are like the stock of an ordinary store in one they are not. They are helter-skelter ; what you don't want is sure to be there ; a little behindhand, some of 'em ; prices way off. It's one of the busiest parts of the store. We make money by losing it there Northwest ot the store. 1 1 r . - . . we meant to print a lull ac count of our winter underwear, merino, wool and silk, men's, women's and children's. Noth ing but opportunity to get the information together has hinder ed. Weather held off so long we kept thinking the time would wait. Now the time will wait no longer ; the store is full of buyers ; they have got to be attended to ; Mr. Jennings, the man who carries it all in his head, can't give a day to help the news-man through ; and nothing less will do. We must let it go. No loss to us. The store is as full of buyers as of underwear. What have we to gain by crowd ing INothtng. liven now it is fair to say what lies under the surface just here : You had bet ter come lor urgent things whatever they are that belong to wintry weather come in the early cold mornings before lazy folks get out. What is there to come for ? Whatever you want. Not what ever you imagine you want. You often find, when you go to a first-rate collection of any thing, no watter what, that your no tions are wrong. Tilings change. What was good last year is su perceded by something better this year. You had better come with a general notion and make it definite after you see what is here. That is buying intelli gently. We are saying that all the really wanted things are here. We have to say this knowing al most nothing about it. Why do we have to say it? Because the man whose business it is to provide them says they are here ; and the people buying prove it. And yet we wish we could set them out in a row in this paper. You could turn them over in your mind before com ing. You would come half ready to pick out your things. It would shorten your buying, not make it more. Nevertheless we'll try to get at some unexpected items an other day. Whatever you imagine you want in underwear either that or something better is here.

The great success of the Itoyal Baking Powder, Is due to the extreme care exer cised by its manufacturers to make It en tirely pure, uniform In quality, and of tho highest leavening power. All the scl- entitle knowledge, care and skill, attained by a twenty year's practical experience, arc contributed toward this end, and no pharmaceutical preparation can ho dis pensed with a greater accuracy, precision and exnetness. Every artlclo used Is abso lutely pure. A number of chemists are cm ployed to .test the strength'ot each ingre dient, so that its exact power and effect In combination with Itsco-iiigredlcnts, is defi nitely known. Nothing Is trusted to chance, and no person Is employed in tho preparation of tho materials used or the manufacture of the powder, who is not an expert In his particular branch ot tho bus iness. As n consequence, the Itoyal Uak. Ing Powder Is of the highest grailo of ex cellence, always pure, wholesomo aud un iform in quality. Each box Is exactly like every other, and will retain its powers and produce the same and the highest leaycniug effect lu any climate, at any tlmo. Tho Government Chemists, nficr having an alyzed nil tho principal brands in the mar. ket, In their reports placed the Itoyal Bak ing Powder at tho head of the list for strength, purity, and wholcsomcncss, uud thousands of tests all over tho couutry havo further demonstrated the fact that its qualities are', in every respect, unrivaled.
