Committed Suicide,
John B. McMullen, aged about fifty-
eight years, committed suicide by
hanging himself last Saturday night
at Beotia, this county. His body was
found suspended in the air from a rope
which he had fastened to a stick
thrown across a hole in the ceiling of
the shanty, and when found had been
dead several hours. McMullen had
been in bad health for some time and
feared death from his illness, so much

did not intend to countenance nepo-
tism in any form, that the Democrats
had for years been abusing the Repub-
licans for being guilty of it, and that
he was really surprised that any Dem-
ocrat should desire to follow the prac-
tice. Mr, Spencer and his friends saw
the point of the argument,
The Republican Senators have been
badly demoralized since they learned
that it was practically settled that
Democratic opposition to the tariff’ bill
would be overcome by friendly conces-
sions. It destroyed their last hope of
defeating tariff reform. Benator Har-
ris, who is in charge of the bill, made
some very sensible remarks in reply to
taunts from Senator Hale, concerning
the proposed concessions. He said:

Receipts for Shoe Dressing.
Here are two receipts for making a
dressing for shoes. No. 1 is as follows:
Take two drams of spermaceti oil,
three ounces of good molasses and four
of finely powdered ivory black and
stir them together thoroughly. Then
stir in half a pint of good vinegar, and
the dressing is ready for use. It gives
a bright, clean surface and makes the
shoes black almost like new.
The Populists held their state con-
vention in Harrisburg on Tuesday and
nominated the following ticket :
For Governor, J. T. Ailuan, of Juni-
ata county, lecturer of the grangers.
For Lieut. Governor: J. B. AKin,
of Washington county.
For Sec. of Internal Affairs :
Louder, of Erie county.
For Aud. General: W. M.
of Berks.
Some votes were cast for our esteem-
ed neighbor, bro. Rhone, for governor.
A resolution was passed strongly en-
dorsing Coxey. The party making a
bid ean, no doubt, buy out this Popu-
list shanty, that’s what it is intended
for, we presume.
