    THE 1005 ROAD LAW.
The Superior Court Affirms the Upinion
of Judge Saddier that Commissioners
Mast Takes Oare of Condemued Turn-
pikes,
The Buperior Court, while sitting io
Williamsport, last week, handed down
at opinion that will interest many of
the Reporter readers, and especially
those in Penns Valley. The decision
referred to confirmed the action of
«Judge Saddler, of Cumberland county,
who decided that the commissioners
in that county were obliged, under the
act of 1905, to maintain turnpikes that
had been condemned, and purchased
by county funds. This decision effects
many localities within the state, for
the msjority of the many turppikes
that once traversed the various sections
of Pennsylvania have been condemuped
and now come under this law,

From moward,
The Howard correspondent to the
Bellefonte Republican says:
The election returns for this borough
last Tuesday were the most surprisiog
of any eleetion ever held. As is cus-
tomary the Democrats voted their
tickets straight and many of the Dem-
ooratic candidates received a large vote
from the Republican side giving the
former some of the offizes, Some of
the old line Republicans of the first
order were defeated and persons who
had reeently moved into the borough
given offices instead. If the Repub-
licans would stick to their ticket like
the Democrats there is only one oflice
that a Democrat could ever get in
Howard and that 1s the mipority in-
gpector. New comers to Howard can
count on being elected to a borough
office about as soon as they are located.
Although he did not seek the nomina-
tion and requested his friends not to
vote for him, A. A. Pletcher was elect-
ed to the office of Justice of the Peace.
Come to th ink of it Al Is just about
the right carriage and of proper cor-
pulence fora 'Bquire and 'Fquire A.
A. Pletcher sounds somewhat digoi-
fied. -r

J. tr, Murray's New Departure,
After two months of remarkable
sales, J. D. Murray, the enterprising
druggist, says that his plan of selling
at half price the regular 50 cent size of
Dr. Howaid's specific for the cure of
constipation and dyspepsia, and
guaranteeing to refund the money if it
does not cure, has been the greatest
success he has ever known.
He has sold hundreds of bottles of
the specific; snd as yet has not had
ope returned, although be stands
ready at any time to refund the money
should any customer be dissatisfied,
This is the strongest testimony that
can be furnished to the gieat merit of
this medicine,
Anyone, suffering with dyspepsia,
constipation, liver troubles, headaches,
dizziness, coaled tongue, or the general
tired feeling, caused by inactive liver
sud bowels or disordered digestion,
should take advantage of Mr, Murray's
new departure and buy a bottle of Dr.
Howard's specific at half price, with
his personal gusractee to refund the
money if it does not cure,
Under Mr. Murray's special half
price offer, this means a month’s treat
ment for 25 cents, with the best medi-
cine known for the cure of constipa-
tion and stomach troubles,

A Startling Debut.
A comedy of errors describes the
first appearance on the stage of Mr
Huntley Wright. He was supposed to
impersonate the warder of a mad
house, and the scene opened with the
brutal {il treatment of the hero, and it
ended with a gunpowder explosion, In
his nervousness the warder dropped
his cap, and, belng agitated and short
sighted, he picked up the pan of gun-
powder instead. It Instantly blew up,
nearly frightening him ont of his wits,
He rushed from the stage and col
