our readers well remember, fell victims in
. rapid succession not long since to that terri

j a fortnight's visit to Summit county. Ohio,
I where we hope he will h.ve a pleasant time,
i Rev. T. H. Jones, of the Congregational
j church, will officiate in Mr. Morrison's place
; on Sunday next.
j Our young friend B. .7. Lynch, of Altoo-
na, has been smiling clear across his face for
: the past two or three days, and the reason
: therefor is a new born, bouncing boy baby,
which we hope will live long and grow up as
' good-looking and well doing as his amiable

! Miss Almira Ross, daughter of John
Ross, late of BUckliek township, dec-eased,
Messrs. John I.. Schroth and John Flick,
formerly of Carrolltown, butnow of Altoona,
have just been made happy for life by each
taking unto himself a wife, the brides' in the
case or cases being Miss Mary Espenlaub and
Miss Milli Nagle, both of Altoona. The cer
emonies took place at St. John's Catholic
church, in the latter city, on last Tnesday
morning. We extend to both the hapny
young couples our best wishes for long,
prosperous, peaceful and pleasant live.
James S. Ward was committed to the
Greensbnrg jail on Sunday night last and
will be tried at the February term of court
for the murder of an old lady named Mary
Mean, who lived in Franklin township.
Westmoreland countv, np until the time of
her tragic death, about three months ago.
Ward was arrested while in bed at his home
in that county, and the evidence against
him, though altogether circumstantial, is
said to be quite conclusive. He is aged
about 32 years and has a wife and family.
Our young friend of journalistic fame,
Harry A. Jacobs, whose prolific pen nas
made the local columns of the Huntingdon
Globe second to those of no other weekly pa-
; per in the State, has taken entire control of
I the business and editorial departments of that
I excellent journal, Brother Tyhurst, the ami-
able proprietor, having determined to ex

j discharge of his duties as postmnster at that
i place. There Is no danger of either gentle

, The Johnstown Tribune peeped over the
mountain into llollidaysburg the other day,
and discovered quite an excitement existing
there over the reported elopement of two

, about it, don't seem to have encountered any
of ttie excitement up to date.
The late Matthew M. O'Neill, of this
i place, was remarkable for the care he took
j in preserving the newspapers he subscribed
, for. He hail files on files of them, notably
; of our ewn county papers, some of them ex
tending back to a date before the present
' generation was born. They would prove a
treasure to som; local antiquarian.
1 Several articles in this and the preceding

for an hour or two each day. Master Joe's
age is nine years, and we venture to say that
he is one of the youngest, if not the very
youngest composi:or in me u nuea states.
! Among the recent sudden deaths at Lil
ly's, this county, at or near which several of
I the kind have occurred within the last month,
, were those of Francis Barberick and Michael
, Kerrigan, both of whom were considerably
advanced in years and greatly broken down

i to die so suddenly and unexpected! v as they
i did.

j a pleasing speaker, and as he has been post
I ing biraself on Land League literature of
j late, if not long, a rare forensic treat may be
anticipated.

Messrs. Sleausscr and Moon, of Snyder

from various farmers in Cambria, Carroll
and one or two other townships. The aver
age price paid was 5130.
It is true, as stated by the Johnitown
Tribune, that Mrs. Maggkt Henry, relict of
the lute Hon. Samuel Henrv, of this place is
lying seriously ill, hut it is not true that she
is at the house of a friend in Nashville. Trnn.
she has been muter treatment for inflamma

Ky., and at latest accounts was slowly but
surely progressing toward lecovery.

that Cham. Roberts 's the man who "sells
best newspapers, barring its politics, with
which Huntingdon county is blessed, and
that is saying all that need be said In its
praise. We hope there has been no increase
of the Nash-ional debt consequent npon this
very decided Improvement, but whether
I there has been or not the Journal well de

j elected orBcers of thp Masonic lodge in this
I place, but also instai themselves into the
i good graces of the printer man by paying us
j a friendly visit, to say nothing of paying us
a year's subscription, which the gentleman
irst named never fails to do. It is the kind

i In our welfare that makes the great burthens i
i of life easier to bear. j

which escaped from a locomotive that was in :
the mine at the time for the purpose of haul- ;
ing out cars. Fortunately, however, none of ;
! them were smothered to death, though all of
j them, over a hundred in number, were mi- j
I conscious when brought out of the mine, and ,
, in not a few cases it required almost super
I human efforts to resuscitate the sufferers.?

The last man hanged in our neighboring
county of Blair, by process of law, was Mc
Kim. who killed and robbed his traveling
companion, Snmuel T. Norcross, at a point
two miles west of Alteona, on the morning
of the 16th of January, l'V.7. Norcross was
found in a ditcli by some laborers in a dying
condition, with his throat cut. He was taken
to Altoona, where he died a few hours after
! wards, nevpr rr gaining consciousness. Mc
Kim wss arrested in Sullivan county on the
j 10h of March, and taken to ITollidaysbnrg,
; where he wss tried at the April sessions, the
trial continuing for a week, and resulting in
a verdict of guilty of murder in the first de
! gree. He was executed on Friday morning,
, Angus' 21. and protested his innocence
I on the scaffold.
Considerable excitement was produced
i In our midst by the rumor on Tuesday that
our fellow townsman Mr. William M. Jones
J had returned from Altoona the night preeed-
ing with a well-developed case of small pox,
i and had taken his bed and sent for a doctor
to treat him for that dreaded ailment. We
i are glad to say, however, that was all a rois
j take. Mr. Jones had a bad case of sore
; throat, and the necessity of "ending for a
'. bottle of liniment, coupled with the fact that
i his business pursuits require the major part
i of hiw time and attention in Altoona, where
; small pox Is supposed to be epidemic, gave
j eromids for neighbors to magnify a niole
; hill t the proportions of a mountain. Mr.
Jones is one of the assignees of the William
I 5L I loyd estate, and his health was good
i enough to permit him to venture back to Al
toona the same day the wild rnmor was set
afloat

THE TiODY OF I.OCI8 PELAHrST FOTXD CI
THE RAILROAD FOtL FLAY 6CSFECTED.
We learn from the Johnstown Tribune of
Monday that about 8 o'clock on Saturday
night last, the body of a man, mangled be
rond recognition, was found by Watchman
Philip Dimond on the north track of the
Pennsylvania railroad, at Benscreek, a small
mining village distant about a quarter of a
mile east of Sonraan, this county. The trunk
was lying between the two rails, and other
rarts'of the body, including the hands and
feet, were discovered scattered abou pro
miscuously ovei a considerable space. The
facts were at once reported by the watchman
to 'Squire F. J. Burgoon, and Constable E.
B. Westbrook, of Sonman, who took charge
of the remains. After being removed to
Sonman. they were recognized by a man
named Martin Hicks as being those of Louis
Delahunt, a well known citizen, who had
been employed in a coal mine at Benscreek
for some time past.
An inquest was held and a local physician
examined the body in the presence f the
jurv, and found a cut on the neck resembling
a knife wound, and a couple of bullet holes
ih the breast. A number of witnesses were
examined bv 'Squire Bnrgoon. among them
being Martin Hicks, John Cummins and
William D. Williams, of Sonman. They all
testified to having met the deceased on Sat
urday in Altoona, where he bought an over
coat and two caps. They had come home on
the same train with him, and saw him sell
of
ictim
bv the other cap. which was found near the
' body. Except for this cap it is said the un
I fortunate man could not have been identified,
i so teiribly had he been mangled.
! The deceased, it is alleged, was seen to get
off the mail at Sonman and start up the rail
j road track in company with Gus. Saunders,
I jr., and Wm. Russell fellow miners. Gus.
j Saunders was put through a rigid examina
I tion at the. inquest, and it is said told a very
! crooked storv. His father, who was also a
! witness, testified to having seen the body on
i the track, as early as 6 o'clock on Saturday
j evening. After a lonaf session the Inquest
' was adjourned until 6 o'clock Tuesday ev
j ening.
Mr. Delahunt was a widower. He leaves
i three daughters, all of whom are married,
! and one son. He was for several years a
i freight conductor on the Pennsylvania rail
i road, and was well known on the western
! division. Recently he had become somewhat
I dissipated, and, losing his situation on the
railroad, went to work in Eldridge's mine, at
Benscreek.

The saloons of Parsona are all elosoj. We do
not believe there Is a town In the State where less
liquor Is sold contrary to law than there Is In this
town at the present time. The Improvement in
the conduct and irood onl'rol the town ti plainlv
perceptible to any one. The most rabid anti-prohibitionist
in the world cannot fail to observe the
difference, and admit that it Is a ?ood arrange
ment. We would wnifer a dime with any one that
if this state ol affairs lasts ix months. In all that
time there will not be three persons in the cala
boose, two fights, nor one runaway.

of tha rhiladelpliia 7V?s furni.-liris a recent
issue of that pappr with tlie following inter
pstinc; data in regard to the Cambria Iron
Works, at Johnstown :
"It (the t'nmbrin Iron Works) Is believed to bo
the largest institution oi the kind, manaired by
one company in the t'ntted States. An idea of Its
ize can be obtained from the following figures :

Mr. John lirnliiers, formerly of this
plac, would like to be Mayor of Altoona
and as a preliminary thereto offers himself
per card in the local papers "to the working,
men and those in sympathy with our down
trodden laws," whatcTer that means, as an
indenendent candidate for said office, pledg
ing his life at the same time "to see that the
workwomen's rights are respected" and
their interests subserved. That's right,
John : go in and win if you can.
Attention Is invited to the advertisement
of the "People's Store," the only co-operative
establishment of the kind in Johnstown,
and if any guarantee were needed as to its
stability and the inducements it offers to
buyers, that guarantee is abundantly fur

the store to the liberal patronage of all our
