neither is properly presented nor complete,

the editor got his information we cannot say,
but we are happy to inform him that be is
mistaken. The agent, Mr. A. Y. Bobb, is ab
sent, on leave, visiting his father, in Wiscon

DECORATION.—SATURDAY, MAY 30,
1874.—0 n each return of the thirtieth of May
during the last six successive years, the peo
ple of this borough and the vicinity, have paid
a generous and enthusiastic tribute to the men
whose patriotism and bravery led them to de
vote their lives to the welfare of their country.
This custom, so beautiful in itself, so justly
due to those whom it is intended to honor, and
so strongly tended to keep alive proper senti
ments within ourselves, should not be allowed
to fall into disuse. The survivors of the war
are not likely to forget or abandon it, yet its
observance is not more their duty and perhaps
not more their pleasure than of all other citi
zens. It is designed to make the ceremonies
on decoration day strictly civic in their char
acter, to appear as we trust it may ever be our
privilege while our country has an existence
and a name, in the habiliments of peace. Let
our greatest demonstration be that of proper
respect and veneration for our grand army
that "struck its tents" in the field, advanced
along the whole line, and bivouaced at last
"on fame's eternal camping ground." We
would ask the participation of the entire com
munity, not only in theexercises at the eaves,
but iu the arrangements and preparations that
arc necessary before that day.
Contributions of flowers will be thankfully
received, not only from residents of the bor
ough, bat from all parts of the county. The
ladies are especially requested to assist and
encourage us by liberal donations. They should
be sent to the Committee on Flowers, an
nounced below, before 10 o'clock on the morn
ing of the 30th.
The committies thus far appointed are as
follows :
On arrangements—Milton S. Lytle, W. K.
Burchinell, M. M. Logan, T. W. Myton, W. F.
Bathurst, A. Tyhurst and Amon Houck.
On Evergreens—John Wilson, J. H. Boring
and G. H. Naah.

COURT PROCEEDINGS. - Ecnier and
Foust vs. Joseph Green. The plaintiffs in this
suit are merchants and reside at Mill Creek in
Huntingdon county, Pa. The defendant re
sides in Milesburg, this county. It appeared
from the testimony, that E. H. Green, a son
of the defendant, and George Eby, formed a
co-partnership in the year 1863, under the
name of E. H. Green & Co., for the purpose of
operating Mill Creek Furnace. The defendant
to this suit is the father of E. H. Green, and
was the owner of one-fourth interest in the
property. He gave his son the use of his in
terest if he would pay the taxes and keep it in
repair. When the Furnace went into opera
tion the defendant made an engagement with
the firm to go there as book-keeper and re
mained there four years and six months, or
till October, 1867, when he returned to his
home in Milesburg. Mr. Green frequently vis
ited the Furnace after he gave up the book
keeping and assisted in settling accounts. In
1869 the firm of E. 11. Green & Co. became in
solvent, and this suit was brought by plain
tiffs to recover some four hundred dollars due
them from the firm of E. 11. Green & Co.
They alleged that the defendant by his actions
had led the people of that vicinity to believe
that he was a general partner; that the firm
have obtained credit on that account. A
great many witnesses testified that they have
conversed with the defendant during the time
he was there, that he frequently spoke of his
interests, etc. On the other hand the defendant
testified that when he alluded to his interests,
it was in reference to his share of the real es
tate and had no reference.to the business of
E. H. Green & Co.
The plaintiff admitted that they had settled
an account with E. 11. Green & Co., early in
the year 1869, when there was $4100,00 due.
That they were not willing to take the firm
note without defendant endorsing it, which
he consented to do, with Geo. Eby as one of
the endorsers ; plaintiffs also admitted that it
was rumored around that the firm was shakey,
etc. Notwithstanding this rumor they con•
tinned to sell to the firm after this settlement,
although the defendant swore positively that
he told them when he indorsed the note for
$4100,00 that be- was not a member of the
firm. The plaintiffs' only hope was to estab•
lish a genuine partnership, otherwise their
doubts of the firm at the time of settlement
was sufficient evidence to defer their claim.
The trial occupied five days. The jury were
unable to agree, and were discharged. Woods,
of Huntingdon, and Alexander for plaintiffs.
Blanchard and Furst for defendant.—Belle
fonte Republican.
IMPORTANT TO SCHOOL DIRECTORS.—
It is perhaps not generally known that the
annual publication of a statement of the finan
cial proceedings and condition of each school
board in this State is required by the school
law, and that it is the imperative duty of each
board to comply with this provision. This
published statement should be made by the
old boards.
' The department will withhold the State ap•
propriation from all districts that fail to make
the annual public statement. in order to re
ceive the amount appropriated by the State to
each school district, the presidents of the res
pective boards must appear before a justice of
the peace and swear or affirm to the follow
ing That the schools have been open and in
operation, according to the requirements of
the school law, for the term of five months
during the school year ; that no teacher has
been employed for or had charge of any of the
schools in the district during the year speci
fied, who had not at the time a valid certificate
from the county superintendent; that the ac
counts of the district treasurer and tax col
lector for the year specified have been settled,
and statements in full of the financial opera
tions of the district published according to
law. This affidavit made by the president
must be countersigned by the secretary, both
officers of the old board and together with the
annual district report, must be forwared by
the new board to the proper county superin
tendent.
The section of law requiring an annual
statement is as follows : "It shall be the duty
of the board of d!rectors to publish an annual
statement of the amount of moneys received
and expended, and the amount due from col
lectors, and setting forth all the financial op
erations of the district, in not less than ten
written or printed handbills, to be put up in
the most public places in the district."
In preparing this statement, minute details
of all items need not be given.
Secretaries will find a convenient and suit
able form of the required annual statement of
the district accounts on pages 195 and 19G of
the late copy of School Laws and Decisions.
WATER CLOSET PURIFIER.—At ads
season of the year water closets are apt to be
come offensive. The best remedy is said to
be coperas (sulphate of iron,) being simple
eeonomical, easily applied and effective. In
the usual opening of the water closet put
about one pound of the common copperas of
the stores, in crystals. In this form, as it is
not very soluble in cold water, it will dissolve
by degrees, sufficiently fast to deodorized the
same. By repeating the application once a
month, there will be no annoyance from the
smell.
For cesspools it is equally efficacious ; the
quantity only is to be increased. For one of
the usual size it will require five pounds, in
crystals, as above, if the wall is wet ; should
it be dry, then the coperas must be dissolved
in hot water, say five pounds to a bucketful,
and repeat monthly.
The article can be purchased at any drug
store, for a few cents per pound ; is cheaper
and pleasanter to use than chloride of lime,
carbolic acid, or any other deodorizer.
BURGLARY.-011 Monday night of last
week . , an entrance was effected into the cellar
of the store of Nicholas C. Decker, on Penn
street, by breaking open the door. The only ar
ticles taken were molasses, sugar, and perhaps
coal oil. Fortunately there was no commu
nication with the store from the inside, or
there might have been considerable loss. On
Tuesday morning the molasses was traced to
the residence of James Nightwine, and he was
arrested and lodged in jail. Molasses was
found on his boots, and other traces of the
theft were found about the premises. Night
wine was on a'"spree" and insists that be had
two accomplices, but refuses to give their
names. This is extremely doubtful.

Loss EY FIRE.—We are sorry Eta state
that on last Friday morning, the residence of
Donald St. Geo. Frazer, csq.,in Saxton, Bedford
county, was destroyed by fire. A smoke
house, near by, took fire during the night,
and about two o'clock in the morning, the
flames reached the building., reducing it to
ashes. FOrtunately, the inmates awoke iu
time to save themselves, but they had no time
to save any part of the furniture. Loss,
about $3,000, and no insurance. Mr. Frazer
has been among us for some time attending
to business connected with his profession, as
surveyor and civil engineer, and we deeply
sympathize with him in his loss.—Osceola

CENTAUR LINIMENT.
There is no pain, which tho Centaur Liniments will not
relieve, no swelling they will not subdue, and no lameness
which they will not cure. This is strong language, but it
its true. They leave produced more cures of rheumatism,
neuralgia, lock-jaw, palsy, sprains, swelling, caked breasts,
scalds!, burns, salt-rheum, ear-ache, &c., upon the human
frame, and of strains, spavin, galls, &c., upon the animals
in one year than have all other pretended remedies since
the world began. Thy are counter-irritant, all healing
peen 'relievers. Cripples throw away their crutch., the
lame walk, pationou3 bites are rendered hanultne and the
wounded are healed without a satr. The recipe is pub-
lisped around each Lot tle They sell as no article ever be-
fore sold, and they .11 beeauee they do jest what they pre-
rend to do. Those who now suffer from rhumatism, pain
or swelling &nerve te suffer if they will not use Centaur
Liniment, white wrapper. More then 1000 certificates of
remarkable cure; including frozen limbo, chronic rhea•
matism, gout, running tumors, Sc., have been rvceived.
We will send a circular containing certifteates, the recipe
Se., gratis, to any one requesting it. One bottle of the
ye ll ow w omper Centaur Liniment is worth coe hundred
dollars for spavined or sween led horses and mules or for
screw-worm in sheep. Stock - -owners—tinkle liniments aro
worth your attention. No family should be without them.

THIRTY YEARS' EXPERIENCE
of an old Nurse. Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup
is the prescription of one of the best Female
Physicians and Nurses in the United States, and
has been used for thirty years with never fail
ing safety and success by millions of mothers and
children, from the feeble infant of one week old to
the adult. It corrects acidity of the stomach, re
lieves wind colio, regulates the bowels, and gives
rest, health and comfort to mother andchild. We
believe it to be the Best and Surest Remedy in
World in all cases of Dysentery and Diarrhoea in
Children, whether it arises from Teething or from
any other cause. Fill directions for using will
accompany each bottle. None Genuine unless the
fac-simile of CURTIS cic PERKINS is on the out

CUT THIS OUT, IT MAY SAVE
YOUR LIFE
There is no person living but what suffers more
or less with Lung Diseases, Coughs, Colds or Con
sumption, yet some would die rather than pay 75
cents for a bottle of medicine that would sure
them. Dr. A. Bosehce's German Syrup has lately
been introduced to this country from Germany,
and its wonderous cures astonish everyone that
try it. If you doubt what we say in print, cut
this out and take it to your Druggist
& SONS, and get a sample bottle for 10 cents, or
a regular size fur 75 cents.

fers from all other preparations in its immediate
action upon the Liver, Kidneys and Blood. It is

impurities; builds it right up, and makes Pure,
Rich Blood. It cures Scrofulous Diseases of all
kinds. removes Constipation, and regulates the

is worth its weight in gold. Price $1 per bottle.
