On Friday evening last a train loaded with
troops was wrecked at Cambria city by a mis

weather, the harvest home, in Juniata town

Whenever we come to the conclusion that
we are unable to determine what is proper for

business.

the bottom of the vessel, and the water re
mains clear.''
A party of seven half-grown boys were be
fore Burgess Lovell, on Monday evening, to
answer the charge of indulging in a jamboree

It is said that dysentery in its worst form
can be cured, after all other medicines have
failed, by drinking wheat flour stirred in
water, in quantity of about half a tumbler of
water, made to the consistency of cream with
flour. It may be advisable to add a pinch of
salt, or the flour may be eaten in its dry state.
The same effect may be produced in cases of
chronic diarrhoea.
Mr. A. T. Stotler, a member of Co., 1., Fifth

Nothing is more dangerous than to seek
shelter under a tree during a thunder storm.
This has been proved so often that it is wonder
ful any one with common sense should run
the risk. Trees arc excellent objects to at
tract lightning and every year there are more
or less lives lost by persons seeking refuge
under them. A thorough soaking is nct at
all pleasant to be sure, but it is infinitely pre
ferable to death.
Yesterday Lloyd Yohn, one of the leading
strikers, was arrested on a charge of obstruct

time he occupied that responsible position he
is said to have discharged his duties with re
markable promptness and ability. Mr. R. P.
Pitcairn succeeds him in the Superintendency.

The following easy method for removing
rust from steel is given in the Suentific Amcri
can : Place the article in a bowl containing
kerosene oil, or wrap the steel up in a soft
cloth well saturated with kerosene ; let it re
main twenty-four hours, or longer ; then scour
the rusty spots with brick dust. If badly
rusted, use salt wet with hot vinegar; after
scouring rinse every particle of brick dust or
salt off with boiling water ; dry thoroughly ;
then polish off with clean flannel cloth and a
little sweet oil.
We take pleasure in calling attention to the
advertisement of that wide-awake business
man, Nlr. Nicholas Crum, an extensive boot
and shoe dealer, Fifth street, near the post
office, whom everybody knows or ought to
know. He is in the habit of giving a square
deal to everybody. Ills stock embraces all
the best and most popular articles in his line
of business,including Burt's ladies' and misses'
shoes, for the sale of which he is sole agent
in this place. Crum is alive to the interests
of his customers and the public.
A celebrated physician who has made the
subject a matter of careful study, declares
that the only sure remedy fur bleeding at the
nose is to keep that useful member out of
other people's business. He further affirms
that the most acute attacks are caus,d by
asking impertinent questions, which questions,
are apt to produce a severe nervous irritation
in the forearm of the man who is interrogated
and which closes his fists spasmodically, giving
the arm outward direction and making the
questioner feel as though he had been struck
by lightning.
In to day's paper we publish the cards of
Mr. C. E. Ault, blacksmith, and 111 r. Adam
Lefferd, carriage and wagon•maker, both oc
cupying the same building—that new struc
ture in the neighborhood of the Juniata Toll
Bridge. These gentlemen co-operate with each
other, and thus far very successfully. They
are both excellent practical workmen, and
make the most strenuous efforts to give satis
faction. Being young men and having but re
cently embarked in business on their own ac
count, respectively, we trust they will meet
with that encouragement they so richly de
serve.

Every necessary article of the maieria medica
can be found at the Drug Store of Messrs J.
B. Black & Co., Corner Fifth and Washington
streets, including drugs, medicines, chemicals,
etc. In justice to these gentlemen, it can b€
truly said that since they assumed the control
of the establishment, they have conducted the
business upon the strictest principles of equity.
Mr. J. H. Black, who is in immediate charge
of the store, is a practical druggist and phar
maceutist of enlarged experience, capable of
giving entire and complete satisfiction.—
Prescriptions by him are carefully compounded.
We bespeak fur these gentlemen the continued
patronage of the community.
Capt. Conrad Hawn, of this borough, who
runs one of Henry & Co's canal boats, had the
fingers of his left hand so badly injured, on
Saturday last, that the amputation of them, at
the knuckle?, was found necessary. Capt.
Hawn, at the time of the accident, was sitting
on the track of the trestle work at the coal
wharf, watching the loading of a boat, when
his attention was attracted by the moving of
cars in close proximity to him, and in order to
escape being run over hh caught hold of the
rail and suspended his body over the side of
the trestle, but before be could let go the
wheels passed over his bat d with the result
above stated. We sympathize with him in his
' affliction.

that when the amount of capital fixed at the

commence operations. •
At an adjourned meeting of the stockholders
held at the Court House on Saturday evening,
the 28tb. Mr. Thomas G. Gorman, from the
Crystal City Works, described the process of
the manufacture of plate glass and gave an
estimate of the cost of the erection of works
at Huntingdon. On motion, the capital of the
company was fixed at $175,000. The meeting
then adjourned subject to the call of the chair
man.

Adjourned until 7} o'clock, p. m., on Satur

To the citizens qf Huntingdon and vicinity :
The project of erecting in your midst works
for the manufacture of plate glass has pro
gressed so far as the eleiltion of directors and
the adoption of the necessary measures pre
liwinaiy to We organizatL,n of the company.
Without the moral and material support of the
citizens of Huntingdon and vicinity we can
not hope to carry the enterprise forward, and
we make this appeal to you in the outset of
the undertaking, confidently anticipating from
you a hearty response.
The whole subject has been thoroughly and
carefully examined, and the plate-glass works
already built in the United States have been
visited, so that we are prepared to avoid the
mistakes and profit by the experience of oth
ers. With our central position, our shipping
facilities, abundance of the best sand, coal,
lime-stone and fire clay at low prices, if plate
glass can be made anywhere in the
United States at a profit, it ought to be a
profitable business here.
With ordinary advantages, plate glass,
which sells readily at from 30 cents to $l.lO
per square foot, can be made and is made
in the United States at a cost from 60
to 70 cents per square foot, leaving an average
clear profit of 33 per cent, on the business. If
our works are properly ereoted and conducted,
we feel confident they can be made to yield to
the shareholders a handsome return on the
investment. On ns as directors is imposed
the responsibility of the construction and
management of the works, and to enable us to
meet that responsibility we invoke your con
fidence and assistance. We expect to secure
the services of a gentleman who has been for
the last few years superintendent of the plate
glass works at Crystal city, Missouri, and who,
we believe, has the requisite skill and experi
ence to superintend the erection of our works
and the manufacture of plate-glass. The suc
cess of the enterprise depends_in a great meas
ure on his skill and experiefice and the proper
management of the concern.
The funds necessary to carry on the work
will have to be raised principally in the bor
ough and county of Huntingdon, and we be
lieve they will be forthcoming as fast as need
ed. We cannot du much until we get our
charter, and we cannot get that until ten per
cent. of the capital stock of the company has
been paid to the Treasurer.
In all probability our works will not have
been in successful operation eighteen months
before one or two more will be started
here, each establishment giving work to two
or three hundred employes, and before the end
of three years we shall be disappointed if the
population of our borough is not doubled.
Independent of the prospective dividends to
the shareholders, a demand will be increased
for labor and a market for all kinds of pro
duce; and every foot of laud in the borough
and county of Huntingdon will be largely ben
efitted. We appeal, therefore, with confidence
to you, our fellow citizens, to assist us in this
enterprise. The prosperity of our town for
years to come depends on the issue of the next
few weeks.

or shall refuse or neglect to continue to dis
charge his duty, or to proceed with said train
to the place of destination, as aforesaid, he

ment, to aid in the movement over and upon
the tracks of the company employing him, of

shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and
upon conviction thereof shall be fined not less
than one hundred nor more than five hundred
dollars, and may be imprisoned for a term not

upon conviction thereof shall be fined not less
than one hundred nor more than five hundred
dollars, and may be imprisoned for a term not
exceeding six months at the discretion or the
court.

or shall injure or destroy the rolling stock or
any other property of any railroad company,
or shall take possession of or remove any such
property, or shall attempt to prevent the use
thereof by such railroad company or its em
ployees, every such person so offending shall
be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon
conviction thereof shall be fined not less than
five hundred nor more than one thousand
dollars, and may be imprisoned not less than
six months nor more than one year at the die•
cretion of the court.

NARROW ESCAPE.—On Friday evening
last, as our friend and fellow-townsman, Rev.
F. B. Riddle, was driving along the railroad,
in the vicinity of Mill Creek, his horse fright
ened at a locomotive and became unmanagea
ble. The animal commenced backing, and
continued to do so until the buggy was pre
cipitated over t bridge. Mr. Riddle saw his
danger and stepped from the vehicle just as it
wss making the descent. He unhitched the
horse and led him some distance to a farm
house, where lie borrowed a saddle, intending
to ride him borne. No sooner had e mounted
than the horse reared np and fell over on his
back, catching the foot of the rider under
him, but doing it no injury. He borrowed a
horse from the farmer and arrived home about
10 o'clock, with no other injury than a slightly
bruised finger. The bi,iggy was considerably
damaged. We congratulate our Reverend
friend upon his safe deliverance.
THE GLASS WORKS.—tin Thursday of
last week an election of Directors for the com
pany was held, and the folios\ ing gentlemen
were chosen : Col. Wm. Dorris, David Blair,
J. Simpson Africa, C. C. North, S. T. Brown,
H. G. Fisher, S. E. Henry, R. A. Miller and
Frank Hefright.
A meeting of the stockholders was held in
the Court House, on Saturday evening, at
which was present Mr. Gorman, Manager of
the Cri3tal City Works, who gave some very
important information in regard to the manu
facture of plate glass, the probable cost of the
buildings, the machinery, and many other
matters of interest. After a full expression
of the views of those present, the meeting re
solved to fix the capital stock of the company
at $175,000.
What the Bilious Require.
Since torpidity of the liver is the chief cause
of its disorder, it is evident that what the bil
ious require is an alterative stimulant which
will arouse it to activity, an effect that is
followed by the disappearance of the various
symptoms indicative of its derangement.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters invariably achide ;
the primary result mentioned, besides remov
ing the constipation,' flatulence, heart-burn,
yellowness of the skin and whites of the eyes,
pain in the right itia and under the right
shoulder, nausea, vertigo and sick headache,
to wnich bilious invalitisare peculiarly subject.
As a remedy for chTonic indigestion, mental
despondency and nervousness the Bitters are
equally efficacious, and as a renovant of lost
vigor, a means of arresting premature decay,
and a source of relief from the infirmities to
which the gentler sex is peculiarly subject,
hey may be thoroughly relied upon. Liy-lin

Jo nothing is the above more illustrated than in the
course twiny pursue in certain kinds of disease. In order
to save a few cents they have what they call their own
prescriptions, such as Balsam Cupabia, Turpentine, dm.,
little knowing the baneful influence these drugs hare on
the constitution, the disgusting smell front the breath,
and, with all these disadvantages, there is no caving of
money, as the dose has to be renewed over and over again
Wit at last the condition of the patient heroines alarm
ing: then other means have to be resorted to. Read the
words of a sufferer :
Leennond & Co., 915 Race Street, Philadelphia: I appeal
to you, and if there is any earthly relief for me I wish
you would do something for me. About eight monthsago
I got into trouble. I took capsules, went to doctors, and
it has cost me one hundred dollars—first for this medi
cine, then for that—without any benefit. A few days ago
a friend told sue of the Samaritan's Gift; be said it would
certainly me me. This is why I address you for advice.
Let the above be a warning to others. When you get
in trouble procure at once the Samaritan's Gift, and you
will be all right in two or three days, for remember the
bad effects that follow the use of these injurious drugs are
often worse than the original trouble. Price—Male pack
ages $2 ; Female $3. Sent by Mail in a plain envelope.
