.V stock of corn in tassel is one of the
wonders of lialiitzin tov.rship just now. It
was grown in the house, however, :ml is the
pride of its on?r, Mr. David Kratzer, who
was forced on one occasion to acknowledge
the corn without producing it. We meali,
of course, when he was defeated for the
Legislature on the Republican ticket in No

the "intelligent compositor or stunid proof

Pev. Father Mitchell, Ihe faithfnl and
zealous pastor of the Catholic church in this
p'aee about sixteen yea - ago, was in town
during the last three days receiving the con
grat ulations of his hosf of friends on the fact
that he looks well and no doubt feels well.
Father Mitchell is arYecti-.n.iteiy remembered
by all hi old parishionersin atnluia co inty,
all or whom, we are sure, will join us in the
hope that Ins days may vet lie long in the land.
The ladies of the Catholic congregation
in tins place, or at least those among them
who take an interest in such matters, have
in contemplation the holding of an icecream
festival at the Court Ibmse on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday afternoons and even
ings. June 21th, 2-"lli and 2dth, for the bene
fit of the church. The festhal will be one
worthy of the fair projectors, and we hope
to see it 'iberally patronized. Further par

Despite the special injunction put upon
the Census Enumerators by Super isor Mil

at least, such of ihem as h .ve completed

of inhabitants in their icspeetive districts,
though what good or useitil purpose, could

might not be able to answer.
Mr. Wm. Oaks Cunningham, of Hunt

The Executive Committee of the Juniata
1 Valley Printers' Association met at Tyrone
on Saturday last and decided among oilier
things t; change the place for holding the
thin, annual reunion ami picnic from l)eil
Delight to Poaring Spring, Plair county, the
' use of the delightful grounds at the latter
place having been generously tendered by
the owner, Mr. (i. II. Spang. Other busi

transacted, after which the Committee ad
journed to meet in this place on Saturday,
Julv loth to complete arrangements.
Fred.' Mock, a young man recently r.iar-ri-'d.
was assisting on Monday last in cutting
off the end of a bolt in the lower P. P. P
shops ;it Aitoona, when a piece of steel flew
from the hammer he was working with and
t-trikiier him in the breast tienetratcl bis
hotly to a cunsiderabh
tli.
The Tiubiinn
says that he fell like a man who had been
shot, and was subsequently carried home,
meantime sintering great rain. Monday
night he was somewhat easier, but the prob
abTe result of Pis injuries could not be deter
mined as the piece of steel had not then been
found.
Mr. John M. King, of Johnstown, one
of the gentlemen who aspires for a place on
the Democratic ticket as a candidate for th
Legislature, defines his position very clearly
in a communication published in another
column, and asks for it the careful considera
tion or the Democratic voters of the county.
Mr. King, it is proper to say, is a sound
bemocrat'and a competent gentleman, but
that is not more than can with equal truth
be said of Ins local competitor, Hon. E. D.
Woodruff, and, for aught we know, of all
the other gentlemen .o are striving for t'-e
nomination.
Michael McConigle, of Lilly s, was re
leased from jail on Tuesday last, after hav
ing served a three months' term for assault
ami battery, looking considerably bleached
and feeling heartily sick of prison lile.
Michael took tiie total abstinence pledge
from the hands of Pev. Father Poyle, of this
place, a few weeks ago, and a?surt.d us just
before leaviu'? for home that he was deter
mined to staiid by Ins colors for aiitime. to
come. Liquor has iiiiquestiona aly been the
source ot all Ins misfortunes, anil we sin
cerely hope that Hod may grant him the
erace to refrain from its use heieafter.
Mr. Tom L. McNamara, of this place,
who for the last three months lias been kept
as b is? as a whole hive of bees in Philadel
phia, where he enjoys a very lucrative ami
well' deserved trade"as salesman at the ex
tensive wholesale noiise of Pcigl A Co., 3.1S
Market street, has returned to the bosom of
Ids family, so to speak, and expects to re-
i main with us most of the time lor the next
two months and a half. Tom is a pleasant,
s.H-iable and genial gentleman whom we
have known fioni earliest coiidhood, and it
is therefore with more than ordinary pleas-
; ure that we welcome him back to his mouu-
1 tain home.

We don't know to a certainty what the
other candidates for Prothonotary may be
doing, but it is very evident that Messrs.
Shoemaker and Langhein are making things
mighty lively on that subject, and if they
don't come into the convention with a good
showing it won't lie for want of hard work.
Still there is no telling what the harvest will
be, as there is no doubt at all but that
Messrs. MeMonigle, Dunegan, Lynch and
Smey are "hooping it up" about as energeti
cally as any of them, and when they come
to coent noses on the day of the convention
it is possible that the, chances will be nretiy
evenly balanced between the four gentlemen i
named.
Jackson township, this county, is credit- j
ed with the possession of a monster apple :
tree, on the various branches of which there ;
are no less than one hundred and ninety-two .;
grafts, with room enough for more. One !
foot above ground the tree measures six f et '
five and a half inches in circumference. '
The first limb, which branches out five feet '
above the ground, i four feet eight inches in '
circumference. The next limb Higher up is ,
four feet three inches in circumference ; the I
third limb girts four feet one inch, anil an
other measures two feet round. The tree ;
top is very round and beautiful, anil when
the sun is directly above it the foliage throws ;

Mr. F. W. Ilav, a staid, staunch and ;
steadfast, citizen of Johnstown, where he
lias been successfully engaged in the stove
and tinware business for upwards of thirty
years, during the most of which time it has ;
been our pleasure to enjoy his friendship '
and for many years his greatly esteemed fa- j
vors as a liberal advertiser, was with us this
week as a traverse juror for the first time in ;
six years, and while here received a hearty
welcome from his many friends in this com- :
munity. Mr. Hay is one of those liberal-
minded, enterprising citizens who is ever ;
worthy of the confidence, esteem and pa- i
tronage he so eminently enjoys, and which ,
could not be bestowed on a more deserving j
gentleman. . Long may he live ami prosper, i
What it is no libel to call a one-horse '
show, inasmuch as asingle trick horse seems
to comprise the entire equine attraction of
the establishment, is to exhibit in this place
to-day (Friday), afternoon ami evening. ,'
The performances are to consist of gymnas- :
tic, acrobatic anil otlier feats by "eighteen
first-class artists," and although the "great !
quadruple combination" has not been a ver
' tised in our columns, nor have we as yet re
ceived any intii itition that the usual courte
sies will be extended (o the press, it don't
follow that theexhibition is a perambulating
fraud or that the entertainment P, not worth 1
the admission price ."5 cents for adults and
''." cents for children under 12 years of age.
Those w ho go to see it will lie best able to
judge of that after they have paid their
money and taken ti e chances
Mr. Xieli las FreidholT, Jr., of Monster '
township, met with an accident last Fiitlay ;
which .vell-nio.h proved fatal. Pet in ning j
home from Johnstown on the cars, he be
came ill, and et a point between Son man
end Li'ly's opened the window and leaned
his head "outside lo inhale the fresh air. A ;
f re:ght train chanced to he passing just then, ;
and the head of Mr. FreidholT was struck by :
a car ami his skull fractured. He fell back
into his seat senseless, and in that condition
was removed from the train "at Cressoii. I
Medical skill was quickly summoned, and, .
though Mr. Freit'hoff remained in a coma
tose condition for many hours, a vigorous ;
constitution bids fair to pull him through.
He was removed to his home in Munsier
township in the course of a couple of days, '
and if pood mr sing counts for anything, his 1
ultimate lecovcry is an absolute certainty. j
We b arn that a bulTalo robe and two
blankets were unearthed on Monday last, in i
the garden con.ieeted with the hone at
Chest Springs at present occupied by the i
family of P. S. Sweitzer, whose arrest and
committal to the Indiana county jad, on sus
picion of being implicated in ihe supposed ;
murder of a peddler in that county some i
months ago, is noted elsewhere, it seems ;
that several parties were noticed at work in
the garden on Saturday night, iast. and after ;
the arrest of Sweit.er the suspicion became ,
general that stolen goods of some kind hail
been secreted at the above time and place.
Search was therefore instituted, at.d after
rciiovirg a quantity of manure, raising a 1
few boattls ami digging down a few feet, ,
they were finally rewarded by finding, as al
nv.dv stated, the binfalo robe and pair of
blankets, all of which are in excellent condi
tion, oeing nearly if not quite new.
--Daring a severe rein storm on Thursday '
evening last at Jacksonville, a small village ;
in our neighboring county of Indiana, the ,

by lightning antl very badly demoialized, I
t."e tower especially receiving the full force
of ihe bolt, which left nothing but the corner ;
posts in an upright position. The ratters
and other roof timbers weie also split and
shattered and a great portion of tne shin- i
gles torn off, whi'e the chimney, dow n which j
a portion of the current made its way anil
struck the stove, throwing it 'odistant parts
of the room, was completely destroyed. ;
Pesides this, nearly all the plastering was j
tot ii olT, about one-half the weal her-board-ing
spat and scattered in every direction, !
ami even the foundation was shattered in
many places. The most remarkable feature .
of all is that some twenty students were in
the building at the time," not one of whom
received any seiious injury.
As heretofore stated, the notorious Jake f
Hawker effected his escape from our jail a
tew weeks ago, but his enjoyment of the
sweets of freedom was of luief duration.
Alter h rviiig here, he made his way by easy
'st.iges to Johnstown, via Wilmore, summer
hill, South Fork and Wo.nivale. Eaier, he '
went to Holiitlaysburg end worked till he
got tired, wiien be left there and took pas- !
sage on a westward-bound freight tiain.
Upon tiie arrival of the train r.t Deny, Jake
was se.-,i and recognized by Pailroed police
man Siuiz'iian. v. no telei aplied the fact to '
De.iuly Shei iff Kinkead. Word was imme
diately sent to the conductor of the train
to capture Jake at all hazards, and all that
ofiici.il had to do to accomplish this feat was
to push the car-door to, an.' the bird was
snugly c.v;ed. Upon the arrival of the train
at Pit tsburgh, Jacob was banded over to the
myrmidons of the law, and in due couise of
time w s returned to his old quarters in the
palatial edifice presided over by Jailor Orif
litii, whole he puts in the time cursing the
luck that brought him back.
Aftei filling the measure of a long, usc

having attained the venerable age of T.s years

the exception of one term, he tilled the office
of Justice of the Peace, and performed the
duties of sail! position, as he did all the other
duties f life, with honesty, fidelity and a
stiict regard for the rights of his fellow men.

We are in receipt of a note from our
friend J. Patton Thompson, Esq., informing
us that he iias just embarked in a new enter
prise. Everybody has heard of that most
delight ful of "Summer resorts, Lake Chautau

sea, and in one of the most magnificent
stretches of country to be found on the con
tinent, and Lakewood is the most charming

has become Eastern agent for the Lake View
Hotel, the biggest and best hotel at Lake
wood, liood enough ! What Joe don't know
about running a hotel ain't worth knowing,
for he lias tenanted one all his lifetime. He
lias an extensive acquaintanceship tlirough
: out this State, and his friends, when they
! hear of this new departure, will make it a
point, we feel sine, to call on him often as
possible. Let it be borne in mind that this
is only a Summer ariangement with Mr.
Thompson. In September he wi'd resume
his old headquai ters with Young, Smyth,
Field Co., 42S Market street, Philadelphia,
ready ami eager to engage in a Fall ami

are earnestly praying for, we copy the fol
