Capt. flporgp F. Fluff, of Grenburs j
now, but formerly a roi:1ent of Ebftnsburg
and Altoorm, is favorably spoken of by pres

prpssman atbtrce on the Republican side of
the b.ou.-e While we admire the man in an
eminent decree we would rather see him on
our fide of the political fence.

Sister M. P.aptista, of the community of
Sisters of Charity. Altoona, died of consump
tion at the convent in that city on Wednes
daj afternoon of last week, aged 27 years.
Her name in the world was Mary Jane Do
ran, and she was one of three members of
the same family who became nuns, ner
widowed mother and eldest sister reside in
Altoona, where most of the children were
born and reared. She was a model of excel
lence both in the convent and out of it. and
possessed qualities of mind and hesrt which
greatly endeared her to all who knew her, as
well in her worldly as in her religions life.
The funeral obseqnies were conducted by
Rt. Rev. Rbtmp Tuigg. May her soul rest
in peace.
On Thursday of last week, Mr. Thomas
A. Beale, better known as "Farmer" Beale,
of Altoona, went to when some workmen
were digging a trench on Margaret avenue.
In that citv. for the purpose of giving some
directions in relation to the work, and while
in a stooping position in the trench, which
was ten feet deep, about three tons of clay
fell in upon him, covering him to the depth
of fully four feet. A number of colored
workmen commenced immediately to rescue,
if possible, the unfortunate man, and al
though tbey were not very long in reaching
him, he was found to be dead when taken
out. It is supposed that bis neck was bro
ken. He was thirty-four years of age and
unmarried.
An application was made to the peneral
government on the 27th of August, ls7f, by

The chairman of the Executive Commit
tee of the Juniata Valley Printers' Associa

day and Friday of this week. Among the
points of Interest to be visited are the battle
fields of the Shenandoah, Harper's Ferry,
Martlnshnre, W. Va., and several other pla

onrself and wife have to forego the pleasures
of such a trip.

Mr. Bernard McGee, of Barr township,
who is running the saw-mil! of John Wagner,
E-q., in M in-ier tovr..-hip, succeeded last
we-k In cutting fifty thousand feet of hick

of ten thousand feet per day, and is fully
double the product of any mill ever before
heard from in this county. The work was
done with a 4U-inch circular saw, and if ever
anybody saw a saw of equal dimensions go

week. Up to present writing seventy stu

FRANCIS P. TIERNEY, !..
We bad only time last week before our
paper went to press to make a brief and hur
ried announcement of the sudden and unex
pected death of the well-kown gentleman
whose name stands at the head of this article.
It seems that at a late hour on Wednesday
night of last week the deceased was accom
panied to his home in Altoona from near the
Twelfth street bridge, in that city, by N. D.
Meivine, Ksq.. a fellow member of the Al
toona bar, who, after seeing him inside of
the gate, went to his own home. An hour
later a young man who knew Mr. T. saw him
on the pavement in the neighborhood of his
residence, spoke to him, and received a re
ply. Anout r, o'clock the next morning he
was found dead, lving on his face on the
boardwalk, not far from where he had been
seen by the vonng man referred to. Dr.
Findley testified before the inquest held on
the bodv that his death was caused by par
alysis of ttw heart. The deceased, who was
4fi years old, was born about three miles
northeast of this place, and read law in the
office of the late William Kittell. Esq., but
before he finished his studies enlisted as a
private in the 12..th Kegiment P. V., for the
nine months' service. At the end of his en
listment he resumed his law studies and was
admitted to the bar of this county In 164.
In he was nominated by the Democratic
party for the office of District Attorney and
Wfti, pippted. In 173 he removed to Altoona
and ther successfully practiced his profes
sion until death so unexpectedly overtook
him. ne was regarded as an able criminal
lawyer, and his services In that capacity
wer much sought after, the. very last case in
which he was engaged being that of Michael
Mutphy, Indicted In the Blair county court
for murder, whose trial was only concluded
on the day previous to the death of the man
whose eloquence and tact In all probability
saved him (Murphy) from the gallows. Mr.
Tierney was a most companionable gentle
man, and owing to his impulsive and gener
ous natnre had a large circle of warm and
devoted friends, nis wife and three sons,
the eldest beine sixteen years old, survive
him. nis remains were escorted from Al
toona to this place by a committee of the
Blair county bar, and hv a deputation of the
Grand Army of the Republic, under the
command of Col. Burehrleld, of the same
city, and after being taken to the Catholic
ehnreh. where the last sad rites were per
formed and an Impressive setmon delivered
by Father Reardon. they were Interred in
Holy Name cemetery, the flringsquad of the
Grand Army firing a volley over the grave.
On Saturday evening the members of the
Blair county bar held a meeting In Altoona,
which was presided over by Judge Dean,
who. In a brief address, paid an eloquent and
feeling tribute to the deceased 'and to his
professional abilities. Appropriate remarks
were also made by Messrs. Neff and Wood
cock, and resolutions of regret and sympathy
for the widow and children of the deceased
were adopted. May his soul rest in peace.
LIErT. BASTTEL A. CRI9TR
died after a brief illness, at his residence In
Oallitzin, on Sunday last, aged about42 years.
The deceased was a son of Daniel Criste,
Esq., of Summitville. When the civil war
broke out, In 1861. he enlisted as a private in
Company F, 2th Regiment P. V., and at the
close of the struggle had attained the rank of
Lieutenant. For several years he conduct
ed the St. Charles notel iti Altoona and was
afterwards engaged in the hotel business at
Gallitzin. What his pursuit has been during
the last few years we are unable to state. He
was greatly esteemed by all who knew him,
and his untimely death Is deeply regretted.
His widow and two children survive him.
After the usnat religions services his remains
were interred with the honors of war In the
Catholic cemeWv at Tunnelhill, adjoining
Gallitzin, on Tuesday momingt 10 o'clock,
and were followed to their last resting-place
by an unusnally large concourse of relatives
and friends. May his soul rest In peace.
MR E7.EKIEL HCGHES,
a former citizen of our town, died at his home
inflowa City, on Thursday of last week, aged,
we suppose, abont seventy years The de
ceased was raised on his father's farm In the
Immediate vicinity of Ebensburg. and until
he removed to Iowa, something like fifteen
years ago, was engaged in the mercantile
business in this place. ITo was not only
widely known, but enjoyed the respect and
confidence of the community, and his dpath
is sincerely regretted bv all his old Cambria
county friends. When he last visited this
place, three or four years ago, he appeared
to he in his nnal health, bur, since then con
sumption intervened and his death became
only a question of time. His wife, who was
a daughter of the late William Russell, of
this county, survives him, as do also several
children, the number of whom, however, we
are unable to state. Peace to his ashes.
BROTHER CHRISTOPHER TAT. HOT,
after years of suffering which rendered his
life a living dpath. calmly expired on Wed
nesday evening of last week at. St. Francis'
College, I.oretto, in which institution he had
been a teacher for the past eighteen years.
He was a very snccessful educator, a zeaions
and exemplary member of the Franciscan
order, and a true friend of the students un
der his charge, nis old pupils will not for
get him in their prayprs and good works, and
we hope that theirpetitions will be sufficient,
if anything is yet needed, to seenrp him that
eternal reward which Is promised the good
and faithful servant. May his soul rest in
peace.
Mr.S. CATHARINE FRTCE,
widow of the late David Pryee, died at her
residence on what is'known a Prvce's Hill,
a short distance southeast of Ebensburg, at
7 o'clock on last Wednesday morning, aged
about 86 years. Mrs. Prvce was a sister of
Mr. David Evans, merchant, of this place,
and was much esteemed bv a large circle of
friends and acquaintances, to whom the
news of her death will indped be mournful
tidings. Funpral this (Friday afternoon at
2 o'clock ; interment at Lloyd cemetery.
A Little Wanderer. On Thursday
evening a little boy. apparently about seven
years of age, appeared at the residence of
Mr. Emanuel Blough, near Hogback tunnel,
on the Somerset A Cambria Railroad, and
stated that he had been chased away from
borne by his mother and wanted a place to
stay over night Upon bing qnestioned he
stated that bis name was Scott Woodring,
that his home was in Johnstown, "near the
iron bridge," that his father was In the Eb
ensburg jail for stealing shoes, and that his
mother had whipped him (the boy) severely
and chased him away from home. Mr.
Blough generously provided for the boy's
necessities nntil this afternoon, when he was
brought to town. It was Mr. Plough's in
tention to find the lad's mother. If possible,
and endeavor to have her properly care for
the boy, but if she declines to receive him he
will be turned over to the Poor authorities.
Mr. Blouch says the boy is bright and smart,
and bears on his person evidences of pretty
severe handling by somebody. It is pre
sumed that the boy is a son of Scott Wood
ring, who is now serving a term In the coun
ty Jail for the larceny of some butter, etc,
from a farm house near this city. Johnst own

Maltreating a Little Girl. Almost a

At the breakfast table Saturday this little
girl, five years old, whose name is Lizzie Mc.
Mullen, accidentally fell from a chair. He
picked her np from the floor and placed her
on the chair in such a manner that she be

and struck her a violent blow on the fore

and appeared to be dying. The brutal fath
