Wkkk It-fore last the Pittsburg Cotn
nriil published a dispatch from a cor
respondent in Ilellefonte stating that
Thomas Collins, a well known lemo
crat of JVllefonte had declared his in-,
tention of voting for Harrison. The
South Fork ( 'nru r republished the arti
ticle, calling the attention of its readers
to the fact that Mr. Collins was for many
years a resident of KU'iislturg, "that he
had always lcen a Iemx-rat, but that
he could not swallow t trover's free trade
policy."
I-ast week the Wiitt hmaii, published at
IJellefontehad the following to say altout
the article:
"Some fool correspondent of the Fitts
burg Ctnnu rvhil-dnzittr, whose desire to
say .something was greater than his re
sjK'ct for the truth, last week telegraphed
that pajer from this place, that Mr.
Ti omas Collins, one of the delegates
from this district to the Chicago conven
tion, had declared for Harrison. Mr.
Collins was in Clearfield busy building
railroads at the time and knew nothing
of the report, until his return home on
Saturday evening, when he immediate
ly wired the ('oiiimrrcinl-( inz'ttf, denoun
cing the statement as untrue, without
any foundation whatever and retjuesting
the name of the lying author. I'p to
the present time t:iis has not been fur
nished, and he is still in the dark as to
who the dirty whelp was that attenipte.I,
in this way, to libel him and encourage
Kepublicans. Mr. Collins is a Demo
crat. He is one of the kind that allows
no personal preferences to interfere with
his political faith, and while he would
have preferred Governor Futtison as the
nominee, Mr. Cleveland's nomination
Settled the matter and he is as earnestly
for the Democratic ticket to-day as is
any Democrat in this section.
Mr. Collins will not only vote and
work for Cleveland but In lieves he will
be elected, and in proof for this belief
forwarded a check for $1,000 to the
I'ittsburg l'nsf on Monday last, as a
wager that he would not only carry New
York but would be the next president.
As yet it has found no Republican takei".
We trust the editor of the South Fork
Courier w ho unwittingly libeled Mr. Col
hns by republishing the fabrication, will
give its readers the benefit of the truth
He ought to do so injustice to himself, in
justice to Mr. Collins, who has been
libeled, and in justice to its readers who
have been imposed upon.

business in tlic lat-

Ton go into the stores and you will find
Dili Mors and painters in possession; glo
ries of dry goods and millinery are
eclipsed for the time. Though you can
not get in there to see. the interior of the
theatres presents the same spectacle the
paint-brash is the sceptre of the kin;;,
and the gorgeous manager has to doff his
hat to the decorator.
There is no place in Pittsburg where
the hunt of preparation during August is
louder than in the huge pile of red brick
at the point; ami this year is no excep
tion to the rule in the halls of the Expo
sition; where for many weeks already
the workmen have been busy getting the
great building into shape for the season
uow rapidly approaching. Every day
sees an increase in the bustle and clamor
at the Exposition, for the exhibitor have
their booths aud show-cases to prepare,
and there is a race to see who shall sur
pass the record of the past, most of all.
The management of the Exposition has
pet a good example to every one by mak
ing many important improvements, in
cluding a change or two that will be a
genuine surprise to all who visit the Ex
position next mouth. For instance,
where the picture-galleries were last
year a beautiful little concert or lecture
hall has been crvcted. It is entirely pan
elled from floor to ceiling with, polished
yellow pine, and consequently has an em
inently checrlul air which will le en
hanced by the display of incandescent
electric lights upon the wall. Here it is
that Professor Cromwell will give those
wonderful lectures with the aid of his
etercopticon.

I UK locked-out men at Homestead,
says the Pittsburg 7W. are noculiarlv
favored this year in their apjtcaU for

the same.
Attkntion is called to the fact that
the present is the first time for half a
century that New England has not had
a representative in the cabinet, except
ing onlv about five weeks under Presi

John (i. Vu;wi k. representative in
Congress from the Sixteenth district of
Ohio, died at his rooms in the Kiggs
House in Washington about '.' o'clock
no Sunday night. He was serving his
first term in Congress as the successor of
McKinley, whom he defeated after one
of the most memorable and bitterly con
tested campaigns in the history of Ohio
politics. 1 le was a native of Ireland and
alxiut ' years of age.
A r.ri.i.KTix issued by the census bu

the IJemocraey in this county this year.
The selection (.f rt chairman was not
made soon enough to j!V.tt the Trilmoe
and then when the selection was made
it was not announced as the Tribune
thinks it should have been. We trust
the editor of the Tribune will take a dose
of paregoric and calm down as he will
have plenty to worry over after the elec
tion.

other hand the Carnegie company is
catching it right and left, and from no
ones with more vigor and est than Re
publicans, alarmed at the Homestead
object lesson in protection. The Amal
gamated association evinces a purpose to
take advantage of the situation, and is
sending shakers and solicitors to every
part of the country. The meetings at
tract the local politicians and party
leaders, and the Kepubhcansespeciallv
in Ohio and New F'ngland are particu
larly anxious to rid themselves of anv
suspiclon of sympathy for the Carnegie
company, although at the same time, as

I-ected to put up as it never did lxfore

Another notable improvement ia the
new gallery, or enlargement of the old
one. in the main hall, by means of which
the total seating capacity of the audito
rium in front of the band-stand has been
raised to :i6u0. Talking of bands, it is a
fact that the musical outlook in Pittsburg
for the coming season is brighter than
ever. There will be enough music to the
superficial square inch In this city in Sep
tember, for instance, to satisfy the most
greedy music-lover. There will be mel
ody and to spare In the Exposition from
Wednesday evening, Sept. TUi, when it
will be thrown open, till it closes on Oc
tober 22d, for Urst the (ireat Levy and
his superb band will be there, and from
Oct. 3d to the Exposition's close the no
less rcnowaed Ellis I!rooks will bring his
corps of muscidus to keep up the supply
of concerts.
There are few things so generally en
joyed the world over as band music No
body seems too exalted, nobody too low
ly to appreciate it. President Harrison
hardly ever misses a military band con
cert in Washington; Queen Victoria, the
other day, had the band of her favorite
Grenadier Guards play for two hours in
the garden of her Osborne palace, while
she sat on a terrace near by alone. If a
baud, and none of the best, starts up a
marching tune on a city street, everybody
knows how staid merchants, aud gauiins
from the gutter strive to set near it. The
blare of a brass band will bring a crowd
quicker than the eloquent invocation of a
Demosthenes. The directors of the Ex
position seem to have had an eve to this
fact when they laid such stress upon the
improvements in the neighborhood of the
baud-stand. Behind the stand itself
mirrors have been arranged so as to dit
plav the brilliantly-uniformed musicians
to the best an vantage. The balcony up
posite has been carried forward on pil
lars aud comfortable seats lor hundreds
provided, supplementing the accommo
dations upon the floor below for those
who want to hear the concerts. It used
to be a common complaint that there were
not enough seats In the Exposition, but
mere wui be no ground lor it this year.

Thk steamer Bertha brings advices of
the following be iz tires made bv the I'ni
ted States men-of-war in Behring Sea:
The British schooner Mountain Chief,
seized by the Adams for killingseals and
violating the modus vivendi, delivered
in charge of a British man-of-war; whal

A mono the tin-plate works, says the
Philadelphia llemhl, which are repre
sented to have numerously sprung into
existence in this country under the
stimulating effect of the McKinley tariff,
was one that reared its mammoth propor
tions in Anderson. Indiana. It was
glinted to as an illustration of the magic
influence of protection, and was used to
confront the arguments of those who
contended that a tariff was jxtwerless to
create an industry where nature had not
fciippli.-d any of the elements necessary
for that industry. With the tariff or
gans the Anderson tin-plate works was.
one of the standing refutations of such
arguments; hut unfortunately it hiu, not
continued to stand, for some two weeks
ago the sheriff levied on it and sold it
out on ai judgment of two hundred and
eighty dollars and thirty cents, (tJSO.:;!.)
eiiipl.iye! four men, three Utvs and
It
eight girls. The material used was black
Jlates imiMirted from Wal, the tin in
which they were dipped at this great si
fcU.IiVhment Uuv necessarily imported,

Tins is what Chaunccy Dejiew said of
Cleveland less than a year ago. It is a
good thing to .juote to true Americans
"If I am to name the typical Ameri
can, the man who love and lielieves in
his country lieyond everything else; tlie
man who, determining once in what
direction his duty leads, cannot lie
swerved from the path, the man who i.-
doggedly jtcrsistent in what he believes
to lie right; the man who thinks not of
self, but of his country and its needs. I
would name Grover Cleveland. What
he has accomplished is the very highest
tribute to the liossibilities of American
citizenship. A country lawyer in the city
of Buffalo, he shed lustre upon the high
profession which he had chosen. As a
mayor of his native city he presented as
his record a clean and economical ad
ministration. Coming into the highest
Iosition in tlie land without previous
experience, and with scarcely a precedent
to guide him in the conditions which
surrounded him, he won the affection of
his party and commanded the respect
and admiration of his opponents. I find
myself in one of the proudest positions
of my life in tieing iermitted to present
to you Grover Cleveland as the typical
American."

In the last seven months the exports
of petroleum from the I'nited States,
though increased in quantity by nearly
I5,0H,0H) gallons, have declined in
value from 25,47S,5;50 to $2:5,1 10,115
a loss of upward of $2,250,000. While
the Standard Oil Company endeavors to
retain the crude itctroleuin for the sake
of its valuable products, and to extend
the market for refined oil, the Knglish,
French and Germans want the crude oil
for the same reason. If flio f,
manufacturers of refined oil cannot ob
tain the crude article hear on favorable
terms they go to Russia for their sup
plies.
Tub Chicago Infr-M-un promptly
sounds the alarm that British gold is
atiout to l toured into tlie country to
assist in the election of Mr. Cleveland.

Usually the sittiu Dosture and moreoi
less perfect stillness are supposed to gc
together, but there is a plot on foot ir.
the shadow of the Exposition to. upset
this notion. At the 17estern end of the
main building, in the center of the trirc
little park a huge merry-go-round, of the
most modern pattern, run by steam, liu
been erected, and there the unique joys
of flyiug through the uir will be distrib
uted. Taking everything into considera
tion, there will be more entertainment in
the Exposition this season than there has
been ever before. It is hardly necessary
to tell anybody at this late day of Levy't
wonderful ability as a cornetist, or to en
large upon the excellency of the band ol

and last, but not least, the very crowd
of visitors, themselves, who represent I
me intelligence, wulture, wealth and pa
triotism of the great district' of which
Pittsbnrg is the center.
Tittsburg promises to le looking its
very best about Septemlter. The holiday-makers
will have returned from
shore r.nJ mountain, the great stores will
be spick-and-span from the renovators
hands, ami all the theatres will be oeu,
the parks, which are now a beautiful fea
ture of the city, will be lout to don
their Fall finery, and perhaps a political
parade or two will add new flavor to civic
life. It is only right to emphasize the
statement that Pittsburg takes pride in
her new parks; in the grand area of
groves, gardens and drives now to be
found at Schenley Park, and in the breezy
heights and glorious views to be found
at Highland Park. These loyely breath
ing spots of recent creation, may be
reached now by the visitor with
ease, thanks to the various rapid transit
lines of cable and electric cars which
gridiron the city and its suhurh in
deed, the btieet car system of pittshur"
m itself must prove an object of the vh
J Uor's woudciiug attention.

Died of Hydrophobia.
Cliic.u o, Aug. 14. Ix-roy Bell, (i years
of age, died of hydrophobia last night
after 11 hours of agony. The boy was
attacked July 11 by a large doir. which
threw him to the ground and tore his !
iace and throat in
matter until three days ago when the
boy complained of feeling ill. In spitw
of medical aid he grew rapidly worse,
suffering from convulsions so violent
that it required the strength of several
men to hold him in his led. The Pas
teur institute had declined to treat the
boy unless it was proven that the dog
was mad, but as the dog could not le
found nothing lieyond cauterization was
used to prevent hydrophobia.
The Strike Intending.
Ei-Miha, N. Y., Aug. 11. The strike
of switchmen inaugurated at Buffalo, ou
the Erie and Ix.'high Valley lines, has
extended to Waverly and Sayrc, on the
Jehign, and ad freight trathc on that
line is at a standstill. A train of b-ef
stands on an Erie siding there, the
switchmen refusing to allow it to be
switched to the Lehigh tracks to proceed
to its destination. The division superin
tendent of the Lehigh has telegraphed to
Oswego for the sheriff to come to his
aid, although the men are making no
demonstration.
To-morrow it is expected! that the
Erie men will also go out, and then all
traHic through those towns will be at a
standstill. The men are non-communicative
and their future movements are
unknown.
