MILTON S. Lrrzs,
DEATH OP THE CANNIBAL DWARF.—
The York Daily of the -nth says : Barnum's
museum, menagerie and hippodrome met with
quite a loss yesterday in the death of the no
torious cannibal dwarf, which occurred at the
Pennsylvania hotel, in this place. The little
Fiji exhibited symptoms of indisposition sev
eral days ago, and the manager, Mr. W. C,
Coup, sent the "General," as he is called, to
New York, to be cared for by Mr. Barnum's
family physician. But the little savage be
coming restless in the absence of his associ
ates, he was returned to the company.
Like all of his race he had a native horror
of shoes and clothing, and even in the wet,
cold days that came upon the company in
New Jersey, the manager was unable to force
shoes upon the General, and make him dress
with sufficient warmth. Yesterday the man
in charge noticed that his fingers were con
stantly in motion, while he muttered continu
ally the only word he ever pronounced intel
ligibly, ' , Fiji." He refused everything like
food or nourishment, and apparently thought
of nothing but his native island. Dancing or
violent gesturintr of any kind was always a
source of great merriment to the General, but
now the keeper could not provoke even a
smile.
The miniature being was dying, and while
his keeper was doing his best to cheer him up
and make him take medicine, he rose in bed,
muttered "Fiji" in a whisper and fell back dead.
His three native companions who up to this
time where wholly indifferent, tiow exhibited
ail the symptoms of genuine grief. They
bowled incessantly, and such fearful physicial
contortions ware probably never before wit
nessed in a civilized community.
The death of this dwarf savage which was
not an unexpected event, sent a thrill through
each of the very few conversant with the facts.
Shortly after the corpse was placed in the cof
fin, last evening, Mr. S. S. Smith, the keeper,
locked the door upon the three companions ni
an adjoining room, and left the building for
the purpose of consulting with the manager
at the National hotel. He states that he was
not absent thirty minutes, but that upon re
turning, a scene presented itself too horrible
to detail.
The two male associates had gained accent
to the corpse, and were bitting and knowing as
the fleshy part of the body with all the eagerness
of their native cannibalism ! The female stood
aloof in one corner, and by sign, word and
gesture was entreating them to desist. It is
understood that this woman is a convert to
the teachings of English Missoinaries, and
looks with abhorrence uponall the unchristian
habits of her tribe.
Dlr. Smith promptly interfered and the two
miserable beings went sullenly to their apart
ment. All regret the unnatural affair, and
none more than the parties directly interest
ed. The remains were quietly buried in the
evening. _
AN APPEAL FOR RELIEF.—WO have
received the following appeal from Somerset
which we gladly publish and trust it will be
promptly responded to by our people :
At a public meeting, held at the Court
House, in the borough of Somerset, on Friday,
the 10th day of May, A. D., 1872, the under
signed were appointed a committee to present
to the public a brief statement of the terrible
disaster inflicted upon our town, by the recent
destructive fire, and to appeal for aid in be
half of our suffering people. In discharging
this duty we will endeavor to convey a faint
idea of the fearful calamity in as few words as
possible. At about four o'clock, P. 11., on
Thursday, May Bth, a fire broke out in the
western part of the town ; a fierce wind was
blowing at the time, and all efforts to check
the flames proved futile. In less than two
hours this once beautiful town was laid in
ashes. The extent of ground over which the
destructive element raged, is about thirty
acres, in the central part of the town, includ
ing all the stores and hotels, Are one of each
all the banks and offices, including the two
printing offices; all places of business except
the public buildings. One-third in area of
the solidly built and nearly the entire business
part of the town is in ruins, and certainly
three-fourths of the wealth of the place is
utterly destroyed. The fire raged with such
relentless fury, that the terror-stncken peo
ple had to flee for their lives, and consequently
but little of personal properuy was saved. In.
deed, many escaped with no more- clothing
than that upon their persons at the time. To
a large number of the sufferers it is a total
loss of everything they possessed, and they
are left bouselees, homeless, without a thing
in the world, and dependent upon the public
for bread. Others, upon whom the calamity
is not so severe, are greatly in need of aid to
enable them to take another start in the battle
of life. The loss will not fall far short of a
million of dollars, and the total amount of
insurance will not exceed one hundred thous
and dollars.
Generous public, that in the past has re
sponded so nobly to the cry for help from foreign
lands, and to the appeals of our own country
men who have suffered like direful calamities,
we call upon yon in be half of this suffering
but hopeful people—for aid—substantial aid•
Your charities will confer a lasting favor up
on them, and we sincerely hope, that in the
exercise of your liberality and generosity, it
will be like the quality of mercy, "not strain
ed, but twice blessed, blessing him that gives
and him that takes."

whom contributions can be sent. Edward
Scull, Wm. H. Koontz, Isaac litmus, Com
mittee.
Oust LUCK.—Hear the editor of the
Juniata Republican. The chap is entirely be
side himself :
On Monday night, the 29th ult., as we learn
ed since, our gay, old war charger, "Rapidan
Kate," a "reconstructed rebel," made us a
handsome present in the shape of a little the
neatest, handsomest, stylishest, up-headedest,
trimmest, slickest, fastest, bestest and every
estest piece of horse flesh in the shape of a
mare colt, that ever greeted our mortal vision.
It was sired by Todd's llambletonian horse,
and is "a thing of beauty" incited. But, ae
riously, and without exaggeration, we think it
the finest specimen of colt-flesh in the county,
and a leetle ahead of any other colt by the
same sire, we have yet seen, choice as they
have all proved. We have already been offer
ed $75 cash for it, the colt to be delivered
when three months old, which we promptly
refused. Any one who desires to see the colt
can do so by visiting our farm in Fermanagh
township, and if after doing so you don't say
that "blood will tell," then either you or we
don't know much about horse-flesh. That's
all. In the m',antime records of fast trotting
that will eclipse "Flora Temple," "Patches,"
"Lady Thorne," "Dexter" and "Goldsmith
Maid," flit before our enraptured vision, and
we feel like "spreading ourselves like a musk
rat on a salad bed." "G'lang," 2. 15 will be
nowhere I In the meantime.
Let Durborrow "brag" on his ore lands,
And Frysinger "brag" on calf "pairs,"
We'll "see them," and "go an X better,"
Our our promising young "mare of mares."
Whew l "G'lang I" "How's that for high
DROWNED.—Mr. John Milliken, a high
ly respectable citizen of Barree Township, was,
on Monday morning, of last week, found
drowned near hisresidence, some ten or twelve
miles from this place. It seems that he was
missed by his family early in the morning,
and search immediately instituted with the
above result. No other circumstances attend
ing the said occurrence are known. His faith
ful dog standing beside him first attracted the
attention of his wife to the spot, and led to
the discovery of the body.
RAILROADS —By reference to the
advertised '-Proposals" it will be seen --that
sealed proposals will be received by President
Geo. F. Miller, of the Lewisburg, Centre &
Tyrone R. R. at Lewisburg until June Ist.,
-or the graduation, masonry and bridging of
the L., C. & T. R. R., from the western termi
nus at Tyrone, to a point at or near Penn
sylvania Furnace. It will also be seen that
notice is given by Joseph Lesley, Treasurer
of the L., C. & T. R. It., from the Company's
office, Philadelp:tia, that the Ist_ installment
of $5 per share on the capital stock subscrib
ed for that portion of the line from Tyrone
Eastward, will be payable at Loyd, Caldwell
& Co's bank, Tyrone, June Ist, 1872, and sub
quest installments of $5, per share will be
due and payable on the first day of every suc
ceeding month thereafter. If payments are
not punctually made, the law allows one per
cent. per month to be charged in addition.
Thus our people discover the status of
railroad affairs. The Herald, always hopeful
in reference to this railroad, some time since
stated that the lettings would not be made
later than the middle of June, whereat a cor_
temporary which has always scouted the
building of the road at all, made merry. Said
contemporary has the satisfaction to know
that an enterprise in which it has neither part
or parcel, is to be built and at once, whereat
our citizens have great cause for congratula
tion. The line between Tyrone and l'ennysl
vania Furnace will undoubtedly be completed
this sear. Between Pennsylvania Furnace
and Oak Hall, is a gap the sluggards in that
section can build or let alone. They have en
ergetically pined foolish for two years, and
may yet become of age in the same role.—
Tyrone Herald.
The Hollidaysburg Register says: The work
is progressing finely on the Ilollidaysburg
and Willliatnsburg Railroad. Some sixty or
seventy men at work on the end of the road.
Mr. Campbell is the contractor. We are relia
bly informed that the engineers will commence
surveying that part from Frankstown to Wil
liamsburg to-morrow (Thursday). The people
of this place, Williamsburg and along the
route, should speedily subscribe the funds
necessary to complete the road. It will re
pay the expense.
Tie branch from Roaring Springs to Bloom
field is being pushed with great vigor, Col
onel Lemon, the contractor, has same
eighty hands at work. Wo think we can con
fidently predict that the road will be comple
ted within the next three months.

cess. The thing which is advertised must
have intrinsic merit, or else large advertising
will eventually do it more harm than good. If
you have anything which you know to be

Such is the policy of the BURLINGTON ROUTE,
which runs to three great regions in the West :
Ist, To Omaha, connecting with the great Pa
cific Roads. 2d, To Lincoln, the capital of Ne
braska, Platte, filled with R. R. lands and home
steads. 3d, To St. Joseph, Kansas City and all
Kansas points.
The roads are splendidly built, have the
best bridges, finest cars, the Miller platform
and coupler, and the safety air brake (to pre
vent the loss of life that is every where else
happening) ; Pullman's sleepers, Pullman din
ing cars, large and powerful engines (to make
quick time and good connections), and are in
a word the best equipped roads in the West.
So that if you desire to go safely, surely,
q _ickly and comfortably to any point in
Southern lowa, Nebraska, Kansas, or on the
Pacific Roads, be sure that you go "By Way of
Burlington."

CASTOIXIA.—A substitute for Castor
Oil—a vegetable preparation contaicing neith
er Minerals, Morphine nor Alcohol. It is pleas
ant to take, does not nauseate, and operates
when all other remedies railed. Dr. Pitcher
has experimented fifteen years in producing a
preparation more efficient than Castor Oil,
without its horrid taste. The Castoria regu
lates the system ' • cures conception, stomach
ache, croup and flatulency, and kills worms.
It does not distress or gripe. By its quieting,
soothing effect it produces natural sleep, and
is particularly adapted to crying and teething
children. _ _
We desire Physicians to test this article,
