THE JOHN Du ma ARMS ER CASE—A
CLEAR STATEMENT OP THE FACTS.—The follow-
hag statement has been furnished us by Mr.
Condron, who owns the mill atwhich the death
of Bumgardner occurred. We are assured
that Mr. Condron's statement is highly cred
ible:
EIOLLIDAYS/313110, Aug. 1, 1872.
Mr. Editor :—I notice an article in your is
sue of July 24th, headed "A man dies very
suddenly;"the tone of which would seem to
cut reflection on those having charge of the
remains of John Bumgardner, who died at our
saw-mill, on the 28th of June last, and further
states that there are suspicions of "foul play."
In justice to the men en the mill, and myself,
will you do me the kindness to publish the
facts in the case, which are as follows:
On the Wednesday before the death of Mr.
Bumgardner, I went over to Clearfield Creek,
to stay at the mill for a few days, and attend
to the business, while my son, A. B. Condron,
came over here to attend to some matters,
bringing with him the horse and spring wagon,
(he having charge of the mill.)
On Friday, when we were called to dinner,
John was well and lively, and full of fun,
which was his nature. Crossing a stream of
water, going to dinner, John threw a stone to
splash one of the men; missing his aim I got
the full benefit of what he intended for the
other. He ate a hearty dinner, and all hands
went on the mill, and while the sawyer was
filing, the other men sitting on the carriage,
John took his knife and commenced to saw
on the neck of a man by. the name of Sher
wood, saying he would cut his head off, then
he got up and caught hold of a young man by
the name of Delasier and tussled with him a
few moments. Delasier not being stout enough
to keep from being thrown down, said to John
to let him go. John immediately did so, and
straightened on and fell to his knees and then
back on the floor. All thought ha was just
acting out his fun. Sherwood, noticing his
eyes, thought something was wrong with him
and raised his head. I was at the store, about
one hundred yards from the mill. It. Ross ran
over to where I was, and said John had a fit,
"do you know what to do for him?" I ran to
the mill, sent Ross for cold water and sent for
warm water, applied the cold to his bead and
the warm to his feet. He was breathing
hard, but not moving hand nor foot.—
He was propped up with coats under his
head, and I think in less than five minutes
from the time he fell, he breathed his last, at
about half-past 12 o'clock. The suddenness
of his death in the timber lands of Cambria
county, away from his relatives,l cannot de
scribe to you the sorrow an sadness that
seemed to be with all the men about the mill.
My first thought was, to devise the best plan
to have his remains sent home in the shortest
time possible, the weather being so very
warm. We had him washed and dressed, and
a rough box made, the best we could, with
no tools but saw and hatchet. I had a large
Buffalo robe laid in the box, and fixed springs
in a two horse wagon bed, on a two horse wag-
On and fastened the box on the springs,-and
sent three men with directions to get a coffin
at Altoona, and gave them money to pay all
necessary expenses. They left the mill with
the corpse about half-past 4 o'clock, having
nine or ten miles to Altoona, makingit nearly
train time when they got to Altoona. The
men thought best to go right on to Mapleton,
and have a coffin made there, and at the same
time send for his friends. They got to Maple
ton about 11 or 12 o'clock, and sent a man
for his friends, and had a coffin made by 9 or
10 o'clock next morning, before his father
arrived. Condron and Ross, who bad charge
of the remains, said Dr. Alleman wanted to
hold a post mortem examination, and they ob
jected until his friends arrived, and whatever
they would say would be right. My opinion
is, that they did just what they should have
done, they knew all about the circumstances
of his death, and wanted the consent of his
father.
John worked on our Mill, eight or nine
months, was a good hand, had no enemies
about the mill. I believe he intended going
home the next day, and was to have been mar
ried the next week. The men on the ,mill at
the time of his death, were Jacob Condron,
Robert Ross, Joseph Sherwood, John Gilespie,
Patrick Henry, Delasier and and it
could not have been a minute until I was
there and others, all before he breathed his
last. it seems to me Dr. Isaac Guss has trav
eled out of the road of a regular physician to
take part in the examination, and then, a week
after, to make another statement. As to the
altercation, lumber wagon, rough box, hurried .
manner and refused to let Dr. Alleman hold a
post mortem examination, aro all remarks, to
my mind, to say the least, extremely impru
dent, and exhibit a lack of good setae.

ADVERTISING—Pub Hefty is _Money
This sas come to be recognized as a principle
in business. Competition is so keen, and we
live in such busy times, that a man's only
chance of success lies in proclaiming the mer
its of his wares far and wide, up and down
the market. Ito must keep a trumpeter, the
public attention must be arrested, and he who
best succeeds in this has the best chance of
making a fortune. It is found not to be suffi
cient for a tradesmen to put up a sign over
his door for people to come and look at; he
must send out his sign far and wide andmake
people sec it and remember it in spite of
themselves. To do this effectually requires
tact and knowledge. There is an art in ad
vertising. All depends on how it is set about;
it must be done boldly. It is useless to go
into a crowd and raise a feeble wail which is
I drowned in the general clamor. It will not
do to imitate the genteel woman, who in car
rying fish the first time would not lift her
voice for fear any one should hear her. There
is another sense in which every advertiser
should have confidence in publicity—should
be quite certain that if ho throws hie bread
upon the waters be must find it, even if it be
"after many days."
On, How I've SUFFERED with my head! All
on account of using the poisonous hair prep
arations. I now use Nature's Hair Restora
tive, and it has removed the poison and res
tored my hair to its former vigor. See adver
tisement. . [ang7-21.
ORGANIZATION OF A GRANT, WILSON
♦xn HARTRANFT CLUB.—A meeting was held,
en the second floor of Port's now building, on
4th, between Hill and Washington streets, on
last Wednesday evening, for the purpose of
organizing a Grant, Wilson and Hartranft
Club.
The meeting was called to order by Sheriff
Zeigler, who moved that General John Wil
liamson be called to the chair, which was
unanimously adopted.
General Williamson, upon taking the chair,
after thanking the meeting for the honor con
fered upon him, made a few brief remarks
upon the great importance of thorough organ
ization in the present canvass, and the neces
sity of electing our entire ticket in October.
On motion, J. S. Lytle, Esq., Theo. H.
Cremer and J. R. Durborrow were chosen
Secretaries.
On motion of J. R. Durborrow, the chair
was authorized to appoint two committees, of
three members each, the one on Constitution
and By-Laws, and the other on Permanent
Organization.
The latter committee was, on motion, ex
tended to five.
The Chair appointed the following gentle
men to compose the committee on Constitu
tion and By-Laws : Messrs. Cremer, Brown
and Lytle.
On Permanent Organization: Messrs. Whar
ton, King, Neely, Durborrow and Snare.
On motion, the matter of securing a proper
place to meet in, was referred to the commit
tee on Permanent Organization.
On motion, adjourned to meet on Tuesday
evening, the Gth inst.

GEN. F. H. LANE.—Mr. Editor :—I
see that Gen. P. H. Lane is again a candidate
Tor Assembly. I would be glad to see him re
ceive a re-nomination, which would be equiv
alent to re-election. There are good men, but
they should this year concede are-nomination
to Gen. Lane. We do not claim to be a "one
term" party. The almost universal rule has
been 'to give a man two terms, if he be at all
deserving. If any one is deserving Gen. Lane
is. Persons who visited Harrisburg during
the session of the Legislature tell me that he
was always to be found at his post; that while
attending well to all local legislation deser
ving attention, he took part in the making of
needed general laws, and worked for the right
in opposing or favoring the passage of bills
affecting other parts of the State, often defeat
ing the deeply laid schemes of unrighteous
corporations or scheming lobbyists. lie soon
came to be acknowledged as one of the lead
ing members. When he rose to speak he was
listened to with marked attention; and he
seldom failed to bring a majority of the House
to agree with him. It was not long until he
was flooded with letters from all parts of the
State desiring his influence in favor of or
against the passage of different bills ; and,
from a careful reading of the proceedings of
the Assembly, I believe ho did not advocate or
oppose the passage of any act without first
examining into its merits nod feeling that he
was in the right in doing so ; and further I do
not believe, nor have I heard any one ever
surmise, that for his services there he ever re
ceived or would have taken a dollar outside
of his salary as a member. I say again that
I would like to see him re-nominated ; and
the majority of the voters of Huntingdon coun
ty will ratify his nomination if made. Let us
firmly establish and continue the two-term
rule, and at the same time give our support to
an honest, capable and deserving man.

PITTSBUROII FEMALE COLLEGE.—We
have before us the catalogue of the of f icers
and pupils of this College. It has as its frontis
piece an engraving of the elegant buildings, sug
gestive of commodiousness, comfort and the amplest
facilities for the accommodation and training of a
large number of pupils. And then we know the
reality to bo all that is represented, that the inte
rior is arranged and fitted up in a styleeorrespond
ing with all that is expressed in the beautiful
exterior.
Its course of study embraces all the blanches of
a solid and ornamental education. It has eight dis
tinct departments, and a teacher for each one, and
special teachers for all ornamental branches—music
(vocal and instrumental) drawing and painting,
wax and shell-work, needle-work, she. employing
altogether twenty-three teachers.
At the head orris - Ir, attuty is our 2rtewtt- ....d
trother, Dr. I. C. Pershing, the very personifaca
tion of earnestness and energy, The remarkable
success of the College attests his singular fitness
for the work to which he is called here. Under his
careful but genial rule the discipline of the College
moves almost without a jar, and the moral tone is
kept up without any serious difficulty.
The terms, we believe, aro as low as in any sim
ilar College of equal advantages while the educa
tion is as thorough and the entire culture as perfect.
The only improvetnent we can think of is in what
it might be as a United Presbyterian instead of a
Methodist College. But if we cannot claim it, we
must give it credit for its excellence and high
claims.—United Presbyterian.

How To Go WEST.—This is an in
quiry which every one should have truthfully
answered before he starts on his journey, and
a little care taken in examination of Routes
will in many cases save much trouble, time
and money.
The "C. B. & Q. R. R." running from
Chicago, through Galesburg to Burlington,
and the "I. B. & W. Route," running from
Indianapolis, through Bloomington to Bur
lington, have achieved a splendid reputation
in the last two years as the leading Passenger
Routes to the West. At Burlington they con
nect with the B. & N. R. R. and form the great
Burlington Route, which runs direct through
Southern lowa to Nebraska and Kansas, with
close connections to California and the Terri
tories ; and passengers starting from Hun
tingdon county, on their way westward, can
not do better than to take the BURLINGTON
ROUTE.
This Line has published a pamphet called
"Bow to go West," which contains much valua
ble information ; a large correct map of the
Great West, which can be obtained free of
charge by addressing the General Passenger
Agent, B. k B. R. R. Burlington, lowa.
THE PENNSYLVANIA RESERVES ENTI
TLED TO BOUNTY.—In the matter of the decision
of the second Auditor, Hon. E. B. French who
refused to allow the claims of the Pennsylvania
Reserves for the ono hundred dollars bounty
under the provisions of the act of Congress of
April 22, 1872, stating that the act referred to
applied only to men who were enrolled in the
United States service prior to July 22, 1861,
an appeal was made from the decision to the
Second Comptroller, Hon. J. H. Broadhead,
who on careful examination into the facts, re
versed the decision of the Second Auditor and
has decided that as the regiments of the Penn
sylvania Reserves were enlisted into the State
service prior to July 22, 18G1, and were mus
tered into the United States service prior to
August G, 1861, bounty will be allowed and
paid to men enlisted in the Pennsylvania Re
serves regiments.

LITERARY NOTICES.—The August Al
dine is as good as a run into the country, and
we should not be surprised to learn that it
had gained thousands of subscribers among
those who are too b asy to take a summer jaunt.
Perkin's illustrations of the Raymondskill for
example, are the finest pieces of rural scenery
that we have ever seen in The Aldine. There
are five in all ; one full page, representing the
Falls, and the other minor falls and sheets of
water, which anglers know are peopled with
trout, and which they are wild over. Anoth
er ful page drawing is "The Old Oaken Buck
et," by John S. Davis, a delicious bit of coun
try life, illustrating Woodworth's well known
poem better than it has ever been done before.
Burling's "Blue Birds," is a dainty bit of na
Lure. Another glimpse of nature—not at all
dainty—is Cary's "Old Squaw Pounding Cher
ries,' a powerful realization of the condition
of woman among the Indians. Besides these,
we have "The Courtship of Miles Standish,"
or rather the courtship of John Alden,
from
the poem of that name ; a "Gypsy Girl at her
Toilet ;" "The Forester's Happy Family," after
Guido Kammer ; and a spinted view of "The
Minister at Ulm." The Literature ofthe num
ber is fully up to its Art. There is a capital
Russian story, "Married in Snow-Storm," from
the Russian of Pushkin, by William Percival ;
a touching Spanish story, "Lalalo," from the
Spanish of Fulgioso, b Helen S. Conant ;
"Worse than Small-pox,"
a bright and lumin
ous American story, by Lucy Ellen Guernsey ;
a charming description of Raymondskill and
its environs by the poet Stedman ; "A few
Words on Angling," in the same vein by
Henry Richards ; "In the Woods," a pleasant
little essay, by W. W. Bailey ; "Lamplight,"
another essay, by Julian Hawthorne ; a third
011" Blue Birds," by the artist Burling ; and
a fourth . on "Hunting Snails," by Dr. T. M.
Coan. There are editorials on "The Old Oak
en Bucket," "The Minister at Ulm," "Woman's
Place," "Gypsies," and "The Forester's Happy
Family ; and careful reviews of Mistral's
"Mireio," and Shairp's "Studies in Poetry."
Besides these papers there are three excellent
poems, "Two," by Mrs. Julia C. It. Dorr ; "Be
side the Sea," by Mrs. Mary E. Bradley ; and
"The Sparrows' City,'' by George Cooper.
Where the Aldine gets so much good poetry
is a mystery which none of our other maga
zines are able to solve. It never prints a poor
one, while they print little else. The sub
scription price is $5 per annum, which includes
an elegant oil chromo, and the publishers are
James Sutton & Co., 23 Liberty St., N. Y.
Scribner's for August.—Two very seasonable
articles in Scribner 's for August are—the en
tertaining paper by Mr. Shanks on "Yachts
and Yachting," with pictures of celebrated
yachts, ocean races, etc., and a pleasant and
practical illustrated essay on "The Canoe :
How to Build and how to Manage it." There
are also three sterling articles by well-known
writers on three vital questions—Prof. Com
fort's "Should the Study of the'Modern precede
that of the Ancient Languages ?" Amasa
Walker's "Labor and Capital in Manufactures,"
and Charles Dudley Warner's "What is your
Culture to Me ?" Among the illustrated arti
cles are an interesting account of "The Graph
ic Art," by Benson J. Loosing, and "The -Is
land of Corfu," by CharlesK. Tuckerman, late
United States Mirister to Greece. Hans Chris
tian Andersen tells the suggestive story of
"The Gardener and the Manor," and Miss An
nan relates in a very fresh an striking way
that of "Ilebe's Jumbles." There is poetry by
Louis C. Moulton, Mary J. Serrano and Charles
S. Gage. Dr. Holland writes about therecent
strikes, and discusses "The Wine Question in
Society," and "Novel Reading." In "The
Old Cabinet" we find "A Hard Time for some
of Us," "Photographs and Looking-glasses,"
and "Lost Opportunities." The Department
of "Nature and Science" is very entertaining
as well as instructive. "Home and Society,".
among other papers, has a very sensible ono
'on "Domestic Ethics." In "Culture and Pro
gress" tho "Jubilee" is mentioned, there is
something about "Two Modes of Prison Dis
cipline," and along review of Lemon's Lincoln;
the number closing with a quaint page of
Etchings by the Misses Ledyard.
The American Working People for August, a
welcome victor to our table, is before us. It
is the leading tariff publication in America,
and has a circulation of over thirty thousand
and a well deserved popularity in twenty
States of the Union. It is ably edited, forci
bly argumentatiVe, without loss of attractive
ness and goes right to the core of all phases
of the great tariff questions it discusses. The
historical, biographical, argumentative, statis
tical and literary matter with which it abounds
is full of interesting instruction and point. It's
agreeable and striking variety makes it an ex
cellent family journal, and it should be in
every household. Every page and line in it
beats in sympathy with the cause of labor and
the men who labor in workshop, farm and
mra --uo -toil, from lowest to
the highest, in every avocation. It clothes
every'topic with which it treats in new beau
ty and leads us to see clearly that which we
have often accustomed ourselves to think was
beyond intelligent popular comprehension.
The services of the ablest political economist
in America has been secured and its pages
will contain the most valuable contributions
on all the great industrial questions of the day.
We find in it the relations of laborand capital
clearly defined and new true thoughts present
ed, which when popularized, will remove
many of the difficulties which now surround
that question. All should have this magazine.

Company, Pittsburg, Pa. Price $1.50 per

ONE-BALE the people cannot take Cas
tor Oil from its terrible nauseating taste, and
recoil in the throat. The Castoria prepared
by Dr. Pitcher is purey vegetable, perfectly
harmless, pleasant to take, and more effective
than Castor Oil. It does not distress or gripe,
bnt regulates the system, and operates when
all other remedies have failed. It acts like
magic for Stomach Ache, Constipation, Flatu
lency, Group and Worms. It contains neith
er, Minerals, Morphine nor Alcohol. Its
soothing, quieting effect, produces natural
sleep : and particularly adapts it to crying
children. No article bees ever met such un
qualified endorsement by the Physicians. Take
no more Bitter Pills, Narcotic Syrups, Grip
ing Purgatives or Sickening Oils. The Cas
toria costs but 35 cents, and when once tried
you will never be without it. [aug7-4t.
EDITOR Joule:Cu.—Dear Sir :—lt is with
pleasure that I call attention to the fact that
our worthy young friend, Col. J. HALL Mus
eau, will be a candidate for the office of Dis
trict Attorney, subject to the decision of the
Republican Countx Convention. It has been
a rule in Huntingdon county to consider the
claims of soldiers, and give them the prefer
ence, when equally qualified with others. Col.
Musser entered the army id 1861, and served
four years. He is a gentleman of unquestion
ed moral character, and undoubted ability,
faithful, prompt, energetic and possessed of
the qualifications requisite to satisfactorily
discharge the duties of that important office.

—You will confer a favor'upon a number of

in favor of my old friend, DAVID HARE, of
Porter township, who, I see, is announced as
a candidate for Commissioner.
Now, Mr. Editor, I have known Mr. Hare for

the farmers ought to have for a Commissioner;
amore honest and better business man we could
not put into that office. 1 have heard a great
many talk about him, and they all say he is a
good man. I hope that the Republicans will
give him the nomination, for we ought to have
a very good man for that office. B. G.

SURPRISING.
It is really surprising how rapidly
Dr. Wengert's Family Medicines
are becoming popular all over the country.
Thousands are daily praising them for their many
virtues and say they would not be without them in
their families. To you who have never tested
them, we would say if you have Fever and Ague
you cannot do better than use
DR. WENGERT'S
MOUNTAIN HERB BITTERS.
For Liver Complaints, Scrofulous Affections and
Diseases arising from Impurities of the Blood, use
THE INDIAN VEGETABLE
Restorative and Blood .Purifier.
Dr. Wenger is Magic Balm
has no superior for the speedy and effectual cure of
Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis and Diseases of the Re
spiratory Organs.
THE SAMSON OIL
teed only to be tried to convince the most incredu
lous that it will cure Nervous Headache, Cholera
Maria, Colic, Cramps, Sprains, Bruises, eke.
Dr. Wengert's Hepatica Pills
arc an Alternative Cathartic, and can be used for
an ordinary Cathartic or Physic, and should al
ways be used in connection with the MOUNTAIN
HERB BITTERS in severe cases of Fever and
Ague. We know that there is continually being
palmed upon the people some wonderful prepara
tion that is without merit or virtue, therefore the
people lose confidence in preparations that do pos
sess virtue. Yet it would certainly be unwise and
unreasonable to condemn all the various remedies
offered to the public because some are disgraceful
humbugs. All we ask is for you to give
Dr. Wengert's Family Medicines
a fair trial, and if they are not deserving of your
praise and confidence, then denounce thorn in your
strangest terms.
