The Alleghanian says: A bill has been
introduced into the Legislature "to prevent
the obstruction of the channel of the Susque
hanna or any of ita tributaries in Cambria, In
diana and Clearfield counties, above Ander
son's tereek." It provides that any person
who shall float logs in the aforesaid streams
shall. Upon conviction, pav a fiue of not les
than $100 or more than $1,000, at the discre
tion of the Court. The lumbermen up north
are down on it.
The house of an old man named llurran,
near Bedford, was entered by three burglars
on Saturday nijrht last, about 11 o'clock, one
of whom held Murran down whil the others
threw coals of fire on his legs, thus compelPng
him to tell where his money was concealed.
They secured 975, tied the old man to the bed,
set fire to the house and decamped. He sue
cee1ed. however, in releasing himself and put
ting out the fire. No arrests have as yet been
made. The above facts are condensed from a
letter in the Pittsburgh Commercial, but the
Bedford Gazette says nothing about it.
I'ete McOr.w of cotirfo you know Pete
Bt-t a trap near his residence at Cresson one
evening several weeks ago, and woke up next
morning to find that his trap was missing. A
few nigbts ago he set another trap, and, singu
lar as it may seem, caught his old trap and
two or three inches of leg belonging to some
thieving coon who had been peddling the trap
about the country for five or six weeks, and
finally returned it to the rightful owner in a
manner somew hat similar to the chap who is
credited with the startling expression, "John,
I've brought your sadd'e home !" Teter thinks
it must have beca a case of co(o)nsciene w iih
his coontdiip, but we rather guess a hungry
stomach had the most to do with it.

the act of w ithdrawing the long poker from the
engine furnaco and returning it to the top of the
tank, he attempted to avoid s'riking the brake
man, who at that moment stepped up on the
oppokite side of the encine, and in doing so
brought the extreme end of the poker, in con
tact with the enclosure at the stock yard in
this place, w hich caused the end in his hands
to ctriko him on the breast and hurl him from
the engine. Ho fortunately fell far enough
out to escape the 'wheels, and from thence roll

Dear Frefman The Steel Wo:ks of the
Cambria Iron Company are rapidly approach
in completion. Those who never saw Works
of this kind should by all means pay these
W orks a visit as soon as they go into operation.
The maiu building is of brick, about one hun
dred feet square and uniquely corniced and
covered with slate. It is onlv one story in
height, but that story is sixty' feet. In this
building are the melting furnaces, cupalos,
cranes, converters and moulds. Tho machinery
iu this department is all operated by hydraulic
ptessure, that is, water is forced through small
apertures, in the center of upright metal cob
unins, and this constitutes the motive power.
The furnaces are located on an elevated plat
form. From these the mo'ted metal runs in
spouts and empties into the converters, which
are huge cj lindrical, cup-shaped vessels that
can be turned on pifrots in any direction by hy
drostatic pressure. In these converters the
hard and soft metals are mixed in a "fused"
state, aud a cold blast is then forced through
to harden the metal. The converters are then
turned upside down and the fluid poured into
a huge caldron, or kettle, swung on chaius,
aud carried round on a crane to be emptied
into the moulds, where it is shaped into blooms
and cooled, after which it is again heated and
rolled into rails. There is a large wing to the
maiu building, where the furnaces, boilers, en
gines and blast machinery are located. A
huge cylinder is suspended immediately be
neath the apex of the roof and is always filled
with compressed air, which is used to blast the
furnaces and cupalos. To give a full and lucid
description of these woiks would require two
or three columns of your paper. We did once
write a description of the Harrisburg Steel
Works, but admit that since then we have f.r
gotten the modus operandi. We have stated
enough here, however, to excite curiosity iu
one of the gre.ttest enterprises that the present
generation has wituessed. When these Woiks
are in full operation at least five hundred per
sons will find constant employ ment, in addition
to the four thousand already employed about
the Iron Works.
On last Thuiaday evt-nit.g an intoxicated
woman had drawn a great crowd of bov af'.er
her, and as she was staggering home across
the railroad track a train came a'ong and
struck one of the boys. Win. O'Hryan by name,
throw ing htm down under tho cars, fifteen of
which passed over him, cutting ofT one leg aud
bruising the other so much tl at it had to be
amputated, lie was still living at last ac
counts, but it is doubtful if he will recover.
The boy is about fifteon ye.trs of age.
Tho Highland Agricultural Fair opens on

Anna Dickenson lectured here last Thurs
day cvouing on something. Mr. Hunt an

said it was "Joan de Arc." Little matter
what it was.

Joseph Meyer is now erecting a spacious new
building on Railroad street, near the German
Catholic church. We notice a great many
new houses springing up iu every direction.
Two nymphs de pave who followed a couple
of patent medicine vendeis to this place, as
provisional consorts, were left at the Island
hotel by their paramours one day last week in
bad taste. Yet, nevertheless, they followed
them to Pittsburgh, and. report says, had the
chaps arrcsfe i for seduction. No doubt it is a
iair fight, ai d outsiders have no poke ia.
Another medicine vender held forth on the
Public Square several days and nights of last
week, having in bis possession a live seal,
which created quite a 6eusation among young
Americans. Both the seal and the owner
needed a patch on the back ode of the cage.
A little n of Mr. James B. McCreight ac

Fiue and Life IssritAxrx. Everybody fs
directly interested in Insurance. If you own I
real or personal property it is certainly to your
interest to have it insured. You do not know
how soon the same may be destroyed by tire,
either by accident or the bund of the incendia
ry. You may feel perfectly safe now. but you
elo not know how Sf ion you may need the- ussist
anee of the assurance company ; the refore, it
behooves you to look well to uonrotrii interest n.
I f you have your property insured In a pood,
reliable company, you need not jro Iteggln;
nimmg your neighbors for losses incurred by
fire : on the contrary you can rest easy and be
independent of any such obligations. On the
same principle every man should have his life
insured for the benefit eif his family. No man
knows how coo:i he may lie called from life to
eternity and leave his family in destitute cir
cumstances: but through good and reliable in
surance companies he lias the privileere and can
easily provide against all such contingencies.
It is "well for all persous to carefully consider
the policy of in.vr(nre, and then call upon Kerr
& Co., l.li'l Tenth Avenue, Altoona. Pa., who

Lire Insurance Companies in tne i nitca states.

TnF. Catholic Recced-.- This is the title of
a new Catholic monthly magazine just estab
lished by Messrs Hardy k Mahony, So. 72G
Sansom street. Philadelphia, and furnished to
subscribers at the really low price of $2 50 per
year in vdvance. It is designed as an eclectic
rather than ah 6riginal magazine, yet the first
(May) number contains, as succeeding numbers
will, several original and meritorious contribu
tions from writers of acknowledged ability. Its
contents comprise religious and general literary
topics, which are treated in a manner at once
interes'ing and instructive. It is neatly print

well worthy of a place in every Catholic home,
to say the least.
The May Number or Gopkt. As regalar
as clock work are the monthly advents of Ge
deys' Ladys' Book, and as welcome as the
flowers of Spring are it visits to thousands of

we cannot corceivo how a home could be oth
erwise than happy where the lady of the house
has literary taste and love for the beautiful
si.fiicicntly developed to purchase und peruse
soexcellanta magazine as Godey. Enough for
the present number to say that it sustains the
high character of the work, both as regards l's
literary contents and the numerous handsome
engravings, fashiou and pattern plates, etc ,
w hich adorn i:s pages, but no lady should take
our word alone for it if she can afford to invest
S3. 00 for the pleasure of perusing for an entire
year magazine which must ever prove a source
of instruction, profit aud pleasure.

Ot R John. Everybody calls John J. Murphy
our John, because they all deal with him, buy
his chean dry goods, dress goods, carpets, etc.,
at the Cheap' Dibert Corner, Franklin and Main
streets, at opposite angles with the beautiful
Market House, Johnstown. That's where John
J. Murphy keeps cheap dry goods, fancy goods,
hats, bonnets, artificials up to nature's self, and
other et ceteras. That's what John J. Murphy
does-sells cheap and always throws something
into the bargain.
It Ts So. People who advertise only cneo in
three months forget that most folks cannot
remember anything longer than about seven
davs. To advertise daily is the correct thing.
But here it is impossible. Once a wek is tho
limit to which we tan extend. E.J. Mills would
say something to tho public every day if he
could, but is obliged to content himse lf with
saving once a week that he keeps for sale the
best and cheapest flour and feed in Ebensburg:
THE fifty-six signers of tho Deed n ration, or
the-ir descendants, all de-nlat the cheap t lothlng
Store of James J. Murphy. No. 10t Clinton St.,

Thr reason why is, he does the fair thing and
