It may be known bnt no very generally
remembered, that soldiers of the National
t Guard of Pennsylvania are exempt front the

I of the members of any of our military com
panies are notified to attend court in the ca-
parity of jurors, the fact that they belong to
the 5. G. will procure their exemption.
Christian Dobler, of Peniisville,'Fa.vette
! couti'y, forhierly a resident of Mt. IMeasant,
says the Datcri of that place, will be, if he
lives, one hundred years old on the 1st day
of August next. He is the father of eight
children, all of whom are living; the grand
I father of sixty-eight children; the great-
grandfather of ninety-five children! and the
! great-great-grandfather of four children.
Miss Lizzie Marshall, tioticeil elsewhere
j as having lieen shot at Itutler on Sunday
j Inst, died from her injuries on Monday pight
j following. The gaumix' who did the
j shooting is very properly named Mr. Starr
j a shooting Starr we might call hiui who
: pointed what he supposed to 1 an empty
! gun at he unfortunate young lady and then
pulled the trigger. The t-equel of this fool
hardy transaction is furnished alove.
Now is the time to buy your winter
clothing and tlti place to buy it is at Jas. J.
Murphy's Star Clothing Hal), 109 Clinton
street, Johnstown, where yon will find a
large stock of ready-made rlothing for men
ami loys, overcoats, hats, caps, undercloth
ing, overalls, Manuel shirts, paper cutis,
collars, and fronts (latest styles), and other
articles too numerous to mention, all of
which will lie sold very cheap for rash.
Godfrey Wolf, the workinginan's friend,
and the largest clothier in Altoona. Las re
cently received a full case of the lest overalls
and shirts, which ho is selling at twenty-fire
rent a picre. and has made arrangements for
receiving daily invoices of goodsof all kinds,
which he will b able to sell at the lowest
figures lower than is paid anywhere else.
Call and lie convinced, always remember
ing that bis store is next door to the post
otlice. The "limited mail" tram which delivers
New York papers in Pittsburgh and even
at Miints beyond on the same day they are
printed, not only does not do that forKbons
burg, but the World ami Sun, which used to
reach us before noon on the day after pnl
licatinn, do not. come to hand now until the
following morning, two days after, date the
mail not hcingdelivered here on its arri vnl at
n.r.O p. m. How's that for "limited mail"
facilities?
M.Li. Oatman wishes everylwxly to un
derstand that no more credit will be given
at bis store under any circumstances, and no
goods will be delivered to buyers until paid
for. He also desires it to be understood that
while his prices will be lower than those of
any other dealer in Kbensbtirg, it is because
he intends to sell for nothing but cash or
marketable produce. This is nnjuke cash
sales will be the rule hereafter at M. I. Oat
maii's cheap cash store.
We should have acknowledge last week
the receipt of wedding cards from our hand
some and amiable young lady friend, Mrs.
Gussie lioder nee Miss Gussie Shoemaker,
late ot this place, who was lead to the hy
meuial altar in St. Mary's Cathedral, San
Francisco, Cab, on Thursday afternoon,
Sept. lcth, and then and there made the
lawful, hiving and lovable wife of Col. John
W. Koder, V. S. A. May peace and pros
perity abide with them forever.
Now put np the little stove-pipe with a
meek and Christian grace ; stuff your month

like a good, indulgent "pappy," you buy
i vour winter clothes lrom Iless, who with
bis younger brother can supply the world
with "duds," and don't care a snan if other
dealers think their soap all suds. Gak Hall,

It is now maintained that the fly does
not walk on the ceiling by means of atmos
pheric pressure, ss popularly taught, but
that the hairs of the feet, clothed as Vhey are
with a glutinous substance poured out in
minute quantities, are what makes Mr. Fly
stick as tightly ro his perilous perch as cash
paying purchasers do to E. J. Mills after
they have found out, as they in variabl y .lo
at the first visit, that they cannot save mon
ey more easily than by buying what they
need at his estahlishmeiit.
Last week a tramp called at the house
of Jacob Zilius, of West H iintiugdon, and
complained of being ill. Ho was taken in,
provided with a tied and medicine, and re
mained in his room for several days and
until Saturday evening, when, upon going
to his room with his supper, it was discov
ered that be bad lit out, taking with him
two gold wat' hes, some jewelry, and S-0 in
money. On Sunday he was arrested and
lodged in jail. The watches, jewelry and
the greater part of the money was recovered.
Mr. John H. Moore, about whose big
wagon and big doings we bad something to
say a few weeks ago, made his first grand
entree into town since thrt new vehicle was
put upon the road on Tuesday evening last,
with his mammoth "Great Kistern" groan
ing, as it were, under its immense load of
Vankee notions, which' Mr. Moore had pro
vided for a somewhat, protracted trip through
Northern Cambria, Indiana, Clearfield and
portions of Itlair counties, back to the start
ing point, that gentleman's great. deot of
sunplies, in Altoona.. May a profitable busi
ness reward Ids enterprise aud liberal spirit
wherever be goes.
We learned yesterday of the attempted
suicide of the wife of Mr. Daniel Fry, for
merly of Carroll township, this county, but
now "a highly respected citizen of Chest,
township, Ciearflebl comity. Mrs. Fry,
whose g is little if any less than 70 years,
induced her husband, who is also almitt the
same age, to go out to the corn-febl, and
then sent the hired girl to the residince of
Ler son, ashort distance away. When her
husband returned from the corn-field he
found his wife setting on the sideof the bed,
with an ngly gash in her throat, and hold
ing a basin in front, of her, into which the
blood was slowly dropping. She was still
livi.ig at latest accounts, and the probabili
ties are said to be that she will recover.
The Johnstown Tribune indulges in ft
good deal of sentimental twaddle over the
arrest and incarceration of the absconding
cashier of Collins, Johnston & Co.'s bank in
this place, for which we doubt whet her even
the prisoner himsolf will feel very thankful.
The idea of stigmatizing as wrong the plac
ing of such young men in positions where
they have the handling of large sums of
money, and declaring that employers are in
a certain sense responsible for the incentive
which causes crimes of this kind, is nothing
but the merest balderdash, and when one
einsiders that men who number their years
by two, three and four score have committed
offences of this kind, tho folly of such rea
soning is only the more apparent. Iiesides
that, the oft'ender in this instances Is a man
old enough and sensible enough to have ful
ly realized in advance the lwinonsness of
the act and the punishment due to it, and
while we deeply sympathize with him in his
unenviable position, and even admit the
possibility of a lack of watchfulness on part
of his employers, we sea no just cause for
extenuating his offence on the score of youth
or Inexperience in the wavs of the world,
and we are snre that those most interested
In his welfare will not be able to view it in
any such light.

PotsoNEt to Death. A three-year old
son of Mr. Wm. Howell, of Cambria town
ship, met with a shocking death on Satur
day afternoon last, iftVonsequence of having
swallowed nearly half a vial of a medicinal
preparation known as "fever drops," a dead
ly poison if taken In any but the smallest of
homeopathic doses. Another child in the
same family, as well as a little son of one of
Mr. Howell's neighbors, also partook of the
medicine, which rendered them both very
ill for a short time, but fortunately they had
not indulged to a sufficient extent to produce
death. The one little victim, however, who
paid the forfeit with hUlife, expired in great
agony in about three hours after swallowing
the fatal draught. The medicine is said to
have been in the house for several months,
if not years, and this fact, as well as the ad
ditional fact that the cork In the vial was so
firmly fixed that it seemed impossible for
any one to remove it in the ordinary way,
may account for the seeming carelessness of
the parents in permitting so dangerous a
drug to fall Into the hands of the nnrortu
notociiiM whose sad and sudden death under
1 snch painful circumstances has brought un
' told grief to a greatly bereaved household.
CAtroHT asd C Afc ed. The denizens in
this locality were no little surprised, not to
say shocked, on Sunday last, by the an
nouncement of the fact that A close carriage
containing the absconding cashier of Colli us,
Johnston & Co.'s bank, in this place, ac
companied by Capt. J. K. Hite and two
Philadelphia detectives, had been driven to
the county jail, and that the party of the
first part hail len hastily conducted within
its dread portals and was then, as he Is howj
j prisoner inside its massive stone walls.
Of the ways that were dark and tricks that
were vain which have finally cnlminatod i&
the incarceration of this unfortunate young
man, it is not our province, even if it Were
our desire, to speak at this time. Suffice
it for the present, then, to say that the
stockholders of the bank admit a deficiency
of about 20,000 as the result of the prisoner's
peculiar transactions, only three thousand
of which, however, are directly traceable
to the accused himself, and only two of
which it is proper to designate as a clean
steal. Of the total amount ($20,000) it is
proper to say that a considerable sum will
be realized and returned to the coffers of the
bank from Sources at the command of the
stockholders therein.
And no.v a few words about the flight,
pursuit and capture t)f the defaulting cash
ier, who in his departure took with him not
only the two thousand dollars to which re
ference has been made, but also gobbled np
notes and securities to the amotint of 5r"0,f"0
or SfiO.OOO, not for the purpose bf realizing
on them, as that was simply out of the ques
tion, but, as the sequel shows, with il'M in
tention of using them to shield himself from
punishment, the means, as he thought, ade
quate to that end being the writing of a
letter to his employees in which he threat
ened to destroy the papers in his possession
unless they furnished a written guarantee
that certain things, among which was his
own exoneration from arrest aud punish
ment, should lie done. Such a guarantee,
signed by three memlicrs of the banking
firm was, it is proper to state, forwarded to
the accused, and in due course- of time the
missing notes and securities were returned
to the rightful owners. An agreement of
this kiud, it is needless to say, would not
bold good in law ; but apart from that fact,
one of the parties interested, and who had
not signed the exemption document, went
lefore 8. M. Douglass, Ksq., of Chest
Springs, then in attendance at our county
court, on the 0th day of September last, ami
swore out a warrant for the arrest of the
faithless cashier. This warrant was placed
in the hands of I'inkerton's detectives, two
of whom, Messrs. Petty and Shields, of
Philadelphia, were detailed to work up the
case. How well they succeeded is attested
by the fact that they captured their prey at
Greenville, Michigan, on Friday last, at
which place the accused has a brother-in-law
residing, anil where he himself had already
embarked in the lumlxT business, after hav
ing been summoned from Canada (where he
bail taken refuge pending the negotiations
with his late employers) by the assurance
sent him that he had nothing lo fear that
his dereliclions bad been forgiven and would
no doubt; ere long be forgotten by 'af con
cerned. Put, alas for the frailty of human ealcnla
tions. The misgnided yonng man is now
the inmate of a common prison, with naught
to relieve the darkness of the near future
save and except the fact that his life hereto
fore, so far at least as the public knew any
thing alxuit it, has been a blameless one,
and the further hope that his previous good
character and the respected name be liears
may not lie without t heir effect in mitigat
ing the punishment due to his crime. Let
ns hope that such will indeed lie the cae,
and while we have nodisjiosiiioii to moralize
on the causes which havo led to the unfor
tunate downfall of one who gave promise of
so honorable and so useful a career, we can
scarcely conceive that the one dishonest act
which has marred if not entirely destroyed
his own fair fame and brought bitter grief
to a largo circle of greatly respected relatives
and friends, who are among the very best, of
our citizens, was all the result of his own
volition. There is nothing Known .however,
tojoriniinate any one else in the transaction,
and all presumptions, if there are any, to the
contrary, are without foundation in fact, so
far as the public is aware, and are therefore
uncharitablo and unworthy of consideration.
For the accused there is nothing and should
lc nothing but a feeling of pity, aud if bis
piinishmeut should be measured by the sym
pathies of onr people, it will be much lighter
than the gravity of the offense would seem
to warrant when viewed from a legal stand
point, where justice is too often perhaps
uu tempered Ivy mercy.
The Great Show Comivo. And when
we say, "The firent fihoir," even tho obtuse
patriot who still believes in the pnrity of
Louisiana election ought to immediately
comprehend that we mean "The World's
Show" as the press has very properly got to
designating it of the irrepressible "Php
nix" T. Itanium, High Priest of Marvel
Land, and Great Practical Object Teacher
of the Age.
Yes, Earth's incessant ransacker, like that
musical myth of Negro Minstrelsy, Picayune
Puller,
"is coming to town ;"
and just about that time everylmdy for fifty
miles round about., with their devoted wives,
phenomeal children and blessed babies, will
be doing the same thing, and Fourth of .July
and Fair Day will "nave to again retire into
the profound obscurity of a total eclipse.
Why, you couldn't keep the folks away by
improvising an epidemic or passing round a
contribution liox. Phineas's one thousand
men and horses and ploughing Elephant
couldn't draw them the other way. Wher
ever the great American citizen can get more
than bis money's worth he is going, ami
knowing from experience that Pain urn's
Great Traveling World's Fair gives ten times
the worth of the price of admission, the sons
of Columbia would struggle through the
gates of its vast canvas city, even though it
ferocious Itengal Tigers were tending door,
after a six days' fast. The Master Manager
"has got 'em" the masses; and with them
the multitudinous attractions to scoop in
their stamps as readiiy as one of his monster
Sea Lions would take a herringin outof the
wet. In the language of A. Ward, some re
cent immigrant from the Winnipeg region
may innocently inquire, "Why is this thus?"
Because everybody realizes besides realiz
ing ten hundred per cent, on the in vestment
that one might as well try to outreach one
of Barnnm's high-toned Giraffes as to at
tempt ontrcaching hia proverbial enterprise,
in reaching to every uttermost corner of the
earth for still rarer curiosities to add to his
present little 100,000 collection that he moves
steam, electricity, millions and men to se
cure the latest animal acquisitions, scien
tific triumphs, and arenic achievments. In
the Orient and Occident, and at the Anti
podes, whenever a novelty is captured or
created, the cry is: "Where is Barnntn?"
and the answer: 'Til tale it." There was
but one thing more left for this monument
of acquisitiveness to try to do to outdo
himself. He has tried it the present season,
and every one will flock to bis colossal 20
centre-pole pavillions on Tuesday next to
ascertain the success of the experiment, and
to evidence their; admiration for aud cordial
appieciation of him as one of their genuine
self-made, representative men, aud the
greatest and biggest-hearted, and purest

Grand Pittsburgh Exposition.
Headers must not overlook the advertise
ment elsewhere of the First Grand Exposi
tion of the Pittsburgh Tradesmen's Indus
trial Institute. It will be a great novelty in
our section, but its success has already Imen
assured, and It will undoubtedly lie the
grandest and most attractive display ever
held in Pennsylvania, attracting prodigious
gatherings. The immense building, which
can accommodate r0,000 persons, has risen
like magic, and is very imposing, embi acing
over ticelre acre of exhibiting trce, almost
erery inrh of which has already been taken
np. There will lie twenty-four grand galler
ies, the most excellent music, machinery,
fine art, live stock and agricultural displays
in abundance. Excursion tickets can be
bad at. low figures, and many large excur
sion parties will lie made from all points.
The premiums amount to $30,000, and com
petition is open to the world and for every
thing. Freight one way free.. Thosi desir
ous of exhibiting should address at once A.
J. Nellis, President T. I. I., Pittsburgh, Pa.,
and every one should make it bis business
to attend. There will bo a week's feast for
the eye, at least.

He is a wise man who, by careful forethought,
duly prepares for these changes of tempera
ture by laying iu at the proper time an am
ply supply of suitable clothing. No house
in the country is Ivetter able to supply this

toona. When bo announces he will te pre
pared to exhibit at, his store. No. 1014
Eleventh avenue, a full line of all the latest
styles of goods, he meant erartly irhat hemyx.
His stock is simply inntcne, and great care
has been takeu in bis selections to get the
best and newest designs of imported as well
as domestic goods. While be thus offers
inducements in the way of variety.be has
still something better iu the way of prices.
It has always been bis motto to furnish his
goods at the lowest possible prices, and bis
great success proves the wisdom of his
course. We cordially recomnient our rend
ers to call on him at 1014 Twefth street, next
door to the postoflice, Altoona.

Mr. B. L. H. Dabbs, of 46 Sixth street,
Pittsburgh, is acknowledged to be the leader
in the. Photographic Art in that city. Many
years of practical experience has given him
a knowledge of the art which few, if any,
possess. A visit to his rooms will convince
the most critical observer that skill in work
manship, correctness in likenesses are fea
tures of his extensive establishment. We
would suggest to oui friends, when tbey visit.
Pittsburgh, to patronize Mr. D. ; at all
events, a stroll through bis establishment
will give you as fine a view of the Photo
graphic Art as cau be fonud in the State of
Pennsylvania.
Messrs. Baxter & 8on of this place have
concluded to make way with the entire
stock of goods they have now on hand, no mat
ter what the nacriflee, as they need room for
their fall and winter supplies. Hence it is
that they have renolved to sell all they have
at less than cost, and they invite every one
who wishes to secure better bargains than
they ever heard of to bring along the cash
and see what they can do for them. This is
no catch-pennv announcement, bnt a bona
fide promise which tbey pledge their word
to mke good. ;. R-'-W.-tf.
