A DOUBLE CRIME CONFESSED.
AS OLD WOMAN ON HER DEATH I'.F.D
acknowt.ldc.es MURDERING GRAND-MOTHt-.K
AND CHILD FORTY YEARS
AGO.
After bearing the burden in silence
for forty years of a double murder,
Mrs. Hettie Good, an old woman,
when confronted with terrors of death,
confessed to the crime committed in
her youth. Mrs. Good lived in Bow
mansville, a small place near Lancas
ter, and was sixty five years of age.
No shadow of suspicion had ever
rested upon her. For several years
past Mrs. Good has been slowly dying
of consumption and on Monday of
last week bhc cut her throat. Her
attempt at suicide, however, was a
failure, and Mrs. Good then asked
that William Griffiths, who formerly
lived at Bow mans ville, but now a
resident of Mchnsville, Berks county,
be sent for.
Griffitl s is :.aid to have been Mi?.
Good's li. int'.y years ago and to
have bee . ii father of her illegiti
mate chii.i. ilriffiths obeyed the sum
mons of i"..; i ki sweetheart and to him
Mrs. GcM f: infer.sed that she had
beaten c. '. ...fir baby's brains and
buried it i..; yard of bet house.
The u. id crime of infanticide
was not oiuy one that rested upon
Mrs. Geo V.- . o:;:;.-ienre. On Tues
day she s..r.i f..r the Rev. John Horn
ing, a Mvi.i.u.iite preacher of Bow
mansvil'c. and confessed that she had
killed he! ijudmother, Mrs. Hutch
inson by r.-i.-ans of poison. Mrs.
Good said ti ak the ciime had been
commilteu with the full knowledge
and coniciu of her grandfather, Mis.
Hutchinsou's husband, as the woman
was old and decrepit and in the way.
After making her confession of her
grandmother's niuider, Mrs. Good
grew rapidly worse and died last
Friday. 'I he woman's grandfather,
whom she accused of being a partner
with her hi ihe death of his wife, died
several years ago.
A NotaLta Amusement Combination,
The old wo; Id has been ringing the
praises to Ei.n.Vs & Astley's Enormous
Old and New World Railroad Shows
which has visited in F.urope during its
present grand tour around the world.
Since its arriv.il in America the press
of the Unilul Slates is laden with
panegyrics snd the opinion that it is
head and shoulders above alt oilier
tented exhibitions seems to be unani
mous. The circus department, we
are told, presents an unusual number
of meritorious ads and the grand
double men.'gene contains a Urge
number of rare beasts, birds and rep
tiles. The hippodrome is said to be
the most realistic and the curio de
partment unusually attractive. These
fhows are to be here Monday, July 1st.
at prices to suit alU

Dawes Out of Jail.
Joseph H. Dawes was discharged
from the Columbia County prison a
week ago Thursday under the insol
vent laws. Judge Ikcler reduced the
fine from fiooto $15 upon the recom
mendation of a number of prominent
citizens, in addition to a very large
petition from Centralia, his home.
The leniency shown Dawes in the
withdrawal of the charge of forgery
by the representatives of the United
Mine Workers Association, was upon
the assurance from the District At
torney and the attorney of Dawes
that he would serve three months,
that he would resign from the board
and hand over all papers in his posses
sion. Not any of these promises
have been kept, and in any cases in
the future the plea for mercy will not
be heeded as no mercy was shown
the poor workingmen. Jft. Canncl
Item.
We are informed that there was no
such assurance given by the District
Attorney and the counsel for Dawes,
as that .above stated. Nor was the
change in the sentence made at the
request of Dawes' counsel nor by
consent of the District Attorney. A
lengthy petition was presented to the
court asking for a modification of
Dawes' sentence, on the last day of
the term, and as the movement was
headed by those most active in prose
cuting him, the petition was granted.
We are further informed that Dawes
has sent in his resignation.

the Sands & Astley show narrowly
escaped shipwreck.
Why Independence Day is Celebrated on
July Fourth.
Did you ever hear how it happened
we celebrate July fourth rather than
some later day ? For days the mem
bers of Congress had differed over the
terms of the Declaration. As the hot
summer weeks progressed, windows
were opened, much to the delight of
the mosquitoes and flies of a neigh
boring stable. The stockinged calves
of congressional legs were assailed
daily by the diminutive combatants,
until at last the persistency of the
most stubborn member was worn out
on the fourth day of July. "Now that
the struggle was over the members be
came hilarious in their good nature,"
John Hancock dashed down his great
signature in such shape "that George
the Third might read it without his
spectacles." "Now we must hang to
gether," it was remarked ' Yes," said
Franklin, "or we shall hang separate
ly ."From "Colonial J'hiladd-
jihia," in Dcmorest'a Magazine for

WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE YOUNQ
MEN OF THE DAY?
Cfrnrette amoving Is one of the evils
which is fast increasing among the young
men of the period. It is an age of nervous
ness: nervous excitement, nervous weak
ness and debility is the growing malady of
the day. Minds are over-burdened in
school, the pleasures of social life follow
business worry ; intemperance, sexual ex
cesses or abuses over excite the already
enfeebled nerves and result in exhausting
diseases or drains uputi the nervous system.
ItN 11 dra-,' mid a hnndu-np to every
young inun to be a BUiTerer from nervous
debility or weakness, low spirits, irritable
temper, impaired memory, loss of will
cower, end the thousand and one derange
ments of mind and body that result from
pernicious hubits often contracted through
igimrauce of nature's lawB. The wreck of
constitution, weakened vitality and manly
power, following such habits would be a
sorry eudiug to lite tn this splendid age of
leamini! and labor. It will fast become an
age of unsettled brains and shattered nerve
unless our young nun know themselves.
To reach, re-claim and restore auch
unfortunates to health and harjoiness. is

WILLI iM L. MANNING.
PRESIDENT OF BRIGHTON VILLAGE, NEW
YORK, AND FORMERLY, OF THIS
COUNTY, IS NOT AFRAID TO
TALK IN COURT.
We have received a copy of the
Union and Advertiser, of Rochester,
N. Y., under dale of June 15, which
contains an excellent picture of Will
iarq L. Manning, President of Brigh
ton Village. He is a handsome man,
in the prime of life, and his friends
here are proud to know of the record
he has made since leaving Columbia
county. His former home was in
Jackson township, and his wife is a
daughter of the late Judge Iram Derr.
He is a brother of H. D. Manning of
this town. The subject of this notice
has been serving on the grand jury in
his county, and we clip the following
from the paper above named, in con
nection therewith. Will never was
afraid to say what he thought on any
subject. The Union and Advertiser
says :
The grand jury, which had been in
session since May 6th, an unusually
long term rose yesterday afternoon, as
stated in an extra edition of yester
day's Union, and presented a number
of open as well as fifteen sealed
indictments.
Justice Werner looked over the in
dictments and asked the jury if it had
any further business to consider.
Foreman Eddy replied in the negative.
Then Juror W. L. Manning of Briglv
ton rose and said :
"I do not know as I have any right
to deviate from the action taken by
the members of this jury, but I wish
to say that I regret that certain parties
whose cases have been brought before
us have not been indicted. I believe
they should have been indicted and
held for trial. I refer to the cases of
the gamblers which have been before
this jury."
Mr. Manning called upon District
Attorney Forsyth and asked him if he
did not think his statement was cor
rect. The district attorney said that since
his opinion was called for, he wou'd
state that in his opinion there had
been sufficient evidence befoie the
grand jury to warrant the indictment
of the gamblers.
Mr. Manning continued : "i am
sorry that the business associations of
certain members of this jury were such
as to lead them to look lightly upon
criminals of this class.
Justice Werner said : "I sincerely
regret that there has been a difference
of opinion among the members of the
grand jury on one of the matters that
was of such importance. Ihe evi
dence that was before the ju-y is not
before the court, and the court cannot
therefore pass upon it. I suppose
that a sufficient number of the mem
bers of the jury has voted upon this
matter to render unlawfully binding so
far as this jury is concerned. What
the juror has said about the sufficiency
of evidence to warrant an indictment
is corroborated to some eKtent, and
under the circumstances the only thing
I can do is to direct that the matter
be again referred to the next grand
jury."

of Briggsville, Pa., and Miss Lucinda
II. Harter of Chicago, III., sister of
Dr. Harter. After the ceremony a

happy couple went on their way
rejoicing. They have the best wishes

LIPPINOOrrS MAGAZINE
FOR JULY, 1895
The complete novel in the July is
sue of liipvineott 8 is "A Social
Highwayman," by Elizabeth Phipps
I rain, author of " The Autobiogra
phy of a Professional Beauty." It is
a tale of New York society with a
hero in whom accomplishments and
virtues were incongruously joined with
highly objectionable habits a sort of
urban and modernized Robin Hood.
Francis Lynde furnishes a tale of
the west, " The Strike in Pinon
Gulch j" WillN. Harben one of the
south, Matt Digby's Meddling," and
Lieu. Charles Dudley Rhodes one of
the army, "The Recall of Flathers."
Yet shorter stories are " McGheog-
han's Lapse," by the late Prof. Willis
Chamberhn, and " From Four to
Five," by C. K. E.
Charles Morris gives an account of
The Railroad Invasion of Asia ;"
J. Kumpei Matumoto explains the
mysteries of " The Tea Ceremony of
Japan," and Alvan F. Sanborn des
cribes " The Great Market of Paris."
"The whole duty of Woman, as
understood by Man in the Fourteenth
Century," is an interesting paper by
Emily B. Stone, with quotations,
which read somewhat jocosely now,
from documents of that age. As a
pendant to this, Prof. H. H. Boyesen
has a lively and extremely modern
article on " The New Womanhood."
" Our National Extravagance" is
exposed and deplored by Frances
Courtenay Baylor. Under the head
ing, " Fact in Fiction," Frederic M.
Bird gives reasons for thinking that
the two are best apart, verisimilitude,
not verity, being what is wanted in
fictitious narratives.
The poetry of the number, besides
couplets by Grace F. Pennypacker
and Calvin Dill Wilson, is by Celia A.
Hayward, Juliet V. Strauss, and
Clinton Scollard.
