Elder Robert H. Singer, of California,
Pa., who. as noted in last week's Fkkkmax
was arrested a: Lock Haven and taken to
Somerset on a rhargi of attempting to
commit a rape, preferr.nl by Mrs. Jeffries,
oi Auuison township. Somerset county, Is
now confined in the Somerset, county jail,
his friends having failed to procure his re
lease on bail.
The Somerset llcrithl says:
The prisoner takes his imprisonment
very philosophically and from outw ard ap
pearances does not feel his position as
keenly as one would naturally exixct a
minister of the gosM-l to' under the circum
stances. Members of the Disciples' denomination
say that Elder Singer has not been iu good
standing in that church for a numlier of
years and this is not the first time that
charges affecting his character have been
made. Hitherto he has escaped criminal
prosecution.
A letter was received here this morning
saying that Elder Singer is under bail for
his apM-arance at the Lycoming county
court next September to answer a
charge somewhat similar to the one lodged
against him by Mrs. Jeffries.

It looks now as though a sheep and dog
law will be passed by the present legisla
ture. The act of lse.i uas proven very un
satisfactory to the sheep grow ers of the
state. The new bill has already passed
the house and is now in the Senate. It
provides that the county commissioners
shall auuually levy a tax upon each
dog of not more than two dollars and of
not less than fifty cents. This money shall
then be paid into the county tieasury as a
dog fund, to be applied to payment of
losses to sheep. The ow ner is req uired to
have his sheep apprasied after they have
lieen killed, and the loss is to lie paid upon
the appraisers warrants. If more than
-Jtl remain in the fund at the expiration
of the year, the surplus shall le transferred
to the county treasury for county pur
poses. Under tin act dogs are made per

$15 and $24. The $12.50
styles are equal to those usually

Watches are beautifully chased
and in the finest gold, and we
have been selling them two years
yet have heard no expressions
but satisfaction. All watches
from $15 up are guaranteed for
fifteen years.
A large number of new Watches
for ladies are also displayed and
they are exceedingly beautiful.
Think of a solid gold watch of
elegant desitjn, open or hunting

you to seethe way we are selling goods in this department of our mammoth store. Some merchants
say "I wonder where they can get goods to sell at .hose figures, as we can't buy them wholesale at the
prices they are retailing for." Here is the the secret: We know where the goods grow that is why
we sell so low. And when you come to town,
