east on Uist Tuesday afternoon at Elizabeth
Furnace, a few-miles east of Altoona, near

and accumulated considerable property, and
so terribly injared that he died at 7:30 o'clock
the same evening, at the residence of his

medical treatment. His age was about 70
years.

The Altoona Tribune lumps at conclu
sions witn a unanimity we have seldom seen
excelled. The woman who entered a drink
ing saloon in this place one day last week
with an empty bottle and came out with it
filled, as wa stated inour last issue, is not a
resident of Ebensburg, and we didn't say
she was. Nor is there, so far as we are
aware, any evidence'to prove, what the Tri
bune further asserts, that later In the evening
the woman was full and the bottle emDty
again. It looks to us as if an apology was
d'je either to the woman or to the bottle, and
so far as we are concerned the Tribune is at
liberty to take its ehoire.-
A story put in circulation s few days
ago in regard to the contemplated discharge
of nearly one third of the working force on
I the P. R. R. is denied by the Altoona Tribune
which says that trainmen are making as
many hours a day trying to do the Immense
work of the company as nature can stand,
and, instpad of diminishing, ail classes of
freight and passenger traffic is increasing.
In order to d this work the company has
found it necessary to work Its shops to their
fullest capacity, f urnishing'engines and cars
and keeping up necessary repairs, and con
sequently instead of suspending they are
ponsteniiy hiring mechanics and laborers.
With regard to the decision of our Court
this week, in the case of John J. Beckel vs.
the Cambria County Mutual Protection Fire
Insurance Company, referred to elsewhere,
there seems to exist some misapprehension.
The Court did not decide that any incum
brance against, a property insured invalidates
j the policy, 6f, that, where there was eneum-
orance ac me lime ine application was mane
and the applicant answered there was none,
that then the policy was rendered null and
void on the ground of such misrepresentation.
This statement is put through the columns
of the Freeman by T. W. Dick, Esq , agent
for the Company, to correct a wrong idea
which seems to exist in the minds of many
personf interested.

Sam. ITaskins, of pear Cherrytree, got
on one of his periodical Jamborees on Friday
last and made a sort ot Sahara desert out of
the bar-room of the Henderson House, up
setting the stove, knocking the clock clear
out of time and badly demoralizing its conn
tenance, giving the "bar-keeper a black eye,
and doubling tip the landlord hy planting a
beer mug on the outside of his diaphragm.
A couple of raps over the head with a poker
were meantime administered to the despera
do, who was saved from a third and possibly
a fatal visitation of the kind by the interfer
ence of some of the bystanders, who finally
pot him away from the scene of disasrer.

Indictment larceny and receiving stolen
goods, pending The defendants dead guil.
Vy. after argument, and tnelr sentences are
appended.
The next case'rescbed was that of Com th
ts. Dodsou A Griffith, the charge being in
the nature of a nuisance. The verdict of
the jury was not gaifty, hot that the Com
monwealth and defendants pay each one
half the cost. The nuisance complained of
was that the defendants maintained a phos
phate depot in Johnstown, and the Court, in
dismissing the case, pointedly said to the de.
fendants that the nature of the verdict was
such as to admonish them in the future to
arrange things rn auch a way tbat no further
complaint of this nature would be made.
The case above mentioned consumed the
time of the Court till noon of Thursday.

THE MOORE-FTSTNEGASr HOlfTCTDE.
The ease of the CommonVealtb vs. Steph
en Moore, charged with the murder of Dan
iel Finnegan, was resched Thursday evening
alter supper. The circumstances of this
case are substantially as follows : The de
fendant is the eon of Charles Moore, who
lives a short distance from South Fork,
Croyle township. The character of certain
females of his family, as well as thaf of
some frequenters of his house, was the re
verse of savory. In a word, the house was
generally viewed as a sort of bagnio. Late
on the night of the 21 st of October last a
party of young men, Finnegan among the
number, paid the Moore domicile a visit, for
the purpose, as was elicited hy after-testimony,
of seeing the "girls." They were
met at the door by the defendant, who re
fused them ingress. They seem to have in
sisted on going in, when young Moore seized
a gun and fired. Finne'gan fell and died
without uttering a word.
The defendant being withont counsel,
Geo. M. Reade, Esq., and John E. Scaritan,
Esq., were assigned by the Court to defend
him. The Commonwealth was represented
by District Attorney Sechler. After a plea
of not gnilty had been entered, the work of
impaneling a 1nrv was begun. Thirty-eight
names were called before a Jury was secured.
Of this number seven were challenged per
emptorily by the defense and three hy the
Commonwealth. Sixteen were challenged
for canse, most of them having formed or
expressed opinions, and the others having
conscientious scruples against finding a ver
dict where the pnnishtuent may be death.
After twenty three names had been called
and eight jurors secured, the Clerk announc
ed that the panel was exhausted, and the
Court ordered the doors to be closed and di
rected the Sheriff to call talesmen. One was
called Mr. John Beers, of White township
when the jury that had been out delibera
ting on the fate of the four colored men re
turned with a verdict, and the Clerk was di
rected to put their names in the box. The
doors, however, were still kept closed.
When these twelve had been called and one
Juror was still wanting, the clerk again an
nounced that the panel was exhausted, and
the Sherifl called Mr. Godfrey Hoffman, o?
Johnstown, who had come in as a spectator
shortly before the doors had been closed.
ne had formed an opinion from reading
a'ont the case, and Edward J. Humphreys,
of Ebenshnrg, was called next and became
the twelfth juror.
The following are the names of the Jury :
Lawrence Beauhammer. George Page, Tnos.
Calligan, Peter Maioy, Levi Beers. Gabriel
Dunmire, Joseph Lantzy, David Mulholland,
David Blongh, Wm, J. Tross, J. G. Bum
gardner, Edward J. Humphreys.
District Attorney Sechler then opened for
the Commonwealth ; when, at 10:45 o'clock.
Court adjourned.
Friday morning the taking of testimony
was begun. It was very voluminous, fifteen
witnesses being called for the urosecution.
and a half dozen for the defense. The sub
joined specimen of testimony for the prose
cution will Rive a tolerably clear idea of the
whole :
(Tiarlrt P. ("obauoh. worn. I live In Johnptown.

I remained there till O'Rourke. finneitan. Sloan,

some whisky ; when O'Rourke came to the door I
wsalylniton the bunk and MC'larran was Ivinir
with me ; 1 was awake ; 1 saw Stephen Moore
pick np a (run and shoot , 1 didn't hour what he
said : when O'Ronrke's partv came, Mr. UalnUn
and Mr. Mock went out ; 1 didn't hear the con
versation at all ; I didn't bear Stephen Moore say
anything about the shooting; I didn't see bim

shot ; I didn't r-o out until I was toM there was a
man shot: then I went ont and I found there was
a man lying there dead ; I knew the man ; I would

Moore's before that or not ; 1 was there tnvself be
fore: 1 went there for bawdy purposes "to meet
women ; I was always well received ihere ; the
door was open when O'Kourke came there; I
didn't hear any loud talking, noise or disturb
ance. Mrs, Moore, the mother of the prisoner,
testified for the defense that when O'Rourke
4 Co. came to her house she told them she

NrNE PRISONERS SENTENCED.
Nine of the prisoners convicted in the
Quarter Sessions last week of various offen
ces were sentenced Tuesday forenoon as
follows :
Jesse M'Creight, found guilty of highway
robberv and recommended to "the mercy of
the Court, and in whose case a powerful ap
peal was made by counsel, was granted a
Dew trial.
Theodore Fry, found guilty of larceny,
was sentenced to pay a fine of 15 and cost
of prosecution and undergo imprisonment in
the Western Penitentiary for the term of one
year and three months.
Mary Brown, a young and fine looking
woman, found guilty ot the same crlmejvas
sentenced to go to the county jail for sis
months. " It is only yonr sex," said Judge
Dean, which prevents me Imposing on yon
a term In toe Penitentiary" Mary nodded
her head in assent to this. ' But," added
the Judge' but if yon come back again, we
give you due notice tbat the severest penalty
of tbe law will be meeted out to you." Her
smile broadened wben she sat down.
William McMillan, fon&d gnUty ef rr
was called up. The sentence of the Court
was that the prisoner should go to the Peni
tentiary for the term of nine years and six
months. This man was one of those few
monsters who in a long while are born to an
age, and who descends to the lowest depth of
degradation by ontraging what may be called
his own offspring. "We do not undertake
to put your crime 1n anv caregory." said the
Court, "but tt is about the worst In the
crluaii al calendar." There w-re regrets ex
pressed at the time of the commission of the
crime that McMillan wa.n't lynched on tbe
spur of tbe moment which Is almost always
wrong, but occasionally right.
Charles Howard. Benjamin Wertz and
John Moore. These were three boys found
guilty of a rareeny. Each was sentenced to
pay a nominal fine and goto tbe penitentiary
for one year and six months each.
Henry Carlisle and William Dalley were
sentenced to one year and six months each
in the Penitentiary. These boys submitted
on tbe charge of receiving stolen goods the
crime having been committed In the neigh
borhood of Gallltzin. They evidently be
longed to the genus tramp.
Stephen Moore, found guilty of murder in
the second degree, was sentenced to undergo
imprisonment in tbe Western Penitentiary
for the term of nine years and six months.
Judge Dean characterized this homicide as
entirely unprovoked, and one worthy of the
fattest degree of punishment which the law
can Inflict. But. owing to the youth of de
fendant (who seems to be not more than
twenty years), and hoping his enforced ab
sence from society would work to his reform,
the favor to him suggested hy the sentence
was made after doe deliberation. We may
add that the sentence of this prisoner, along
with that of McMillan, to say nothing of the
others, meets with tbe unqualified approval
of the public.
The Judge concluded bv saying that the
odd months in the sentences were in conso
nance with an Act of Assembly, and then
turned to the bearing of a case in tbe civil
list.
A Stw Advertiser L. Stargardter. of ;
the One-Price Opera ITouse Shoe Store, 212

the Ebensburg public, and toall readers of the
Freemah, and Invites their attention to the
fact that he carries the largest and best se
lected stock of boots, shoes and rnbber
goods in this section of the State. In Johns
town it is a recognizr-d truth that he sells
the best goods for the least money, and cus
tomers from every direction make it a role
to patronize him, as thev know that it is to
their interest to do so. Those of our readers
who have in the past found it necessary to
send to Philadelphia for their fine boots or
shoes will learn with pleasure that there is
so reliable an establishment near home,
where tbey can procure the latest city styles
of the very best manufactures, at prices
which will compare favorably with those of
the leading eastern firms. Mr. Stargardter
Invites special attention to his elegant line
of Edwin C. Burt's fine shoes for ladies, of
which he keeps a full assortment of styles
and widths always in stock. Having made
arrangements by which the promptest atten
tion will be given to orders sent by mail, he
is prepared to sapply the wants of the pub
lic through that means, if desirable. , He
asks that patrons, when ordering by mail,
will describe exactly the size, width, quality
and price of goods wanted, and lie will use
bis best endeavors to fill such orders to the
very letter. His goods being marked in
plain figures at the bottom prices, customers
who order from any distance can do as well
as those who buy over bis counters.

facts are gleaned from the Johnstown Tri
bune, and copied from Its Altoona namesake,
About 11 o'clock Monday night an accident
of a most horrbie character oconred m the
Gautier wire mill. Johnstown. A man nam
ed John Schittenhelro. ared about 23 years,
a machinist by trade, was engaged in putting
a belt on a shaft overhead. whn his clothing
was caught by a set screw. The shaft was
making prohably sixty revolutions per min
ute, and. despite the frantic efforts of the
unfortunate man to save himself, his body
was doubled around the shaft and whirled
round and rcind. His fellow workmen
quickly stopped the machinery, while a mes
senger was instantly dispatched for physl
cians. Upon taking Schittenhelm down from
the shaft his clothing was found to have
been torn Into fragments, and it seemed that
life was almost extinct. Fie, however, reviv
ed, somewhat, and was removed to his home
An examination revealed the fact that his
right foot had been torn off at the ankle and
the limb lacerated to the knee, and that the
thigh had been fractured in two places ; that
the left leg had been fractured about mid
way between the ankle and the knee, and
that be had sustained other injuries, priuct
pally Internal, of a more or less serious na
ture. At four o'clock yesterday afternoon
he was resting easily and he may possibly re
cover. New J ersbt Port WrsE the Best. Dr.
E. H. Janes, a noted physician of the New
York Board of Health says :
I take great great pleasure in testifying my
approbation of the superior qualities of tha
Port Wine produced by Mr. A. Speer, of Pas
siac. New Jersey. I have been to his vine
yards and cellars. .
After a prolonged trial I can confidently
recommend the wine as a superiorarticle for
the sick and debilitated, and all those who
require vinous stimulation and invigoration.
I shall continue to employ it in my practice
in all cases where a pure article of wine Is
called for the sick; and shall do all in my
power to foster and encourage its production.

Thanksgiving
to
Christmas.
Twenty business days intervene between these two holidays,
and we propose to make them, if possible, the greatet days
of all the year for Oak Hall sales. We are thoroughly
prepared with Overcoats and Suits for Men of all sizes and
Boys of all ages. All that remains is for the people that
trade in Philadelphia to believe what we say and come for
our goods.
Prices are Extremely Low.
Our goods have been well bought, and most of them cannot
be replaced at cost prices. Costs, however, have nothing
to do with our selling prices. Prices are made in Oak
Hall solely with reference to the cost of reproducing the
goods. If we make, it is well, if we lose it is bad; but
make or lose, the buyer has the least possible price.
The stock contains, made and making, over 1 0,000 Over
coats; over 200 lines of men's and young men's suits; over
1 60 lines of suits for large and small boys. The value oi
this stock was, thirty days since, over
One Million Dollars.
It is less now, but still very big, and bi? enough for ail who
will come. Fresh goods put m stock daily.
A special bargain now on our counters is our
$12.00 Fancy-back Cassimere Overcoat,
which, however, Is only one among a great host of Interest
ing things.
