The Huntingdon Journal. FRIDAY, - - - NOVEMBER 2, 1877 READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. W. L. FOULK, Agent of the Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia Press Association, Is the only person in Pittsburgh authorised to receive advertisements for the JOURNAL. He has our best rates. WAR ABOUT TO BE DECLARED ! - BREAD OR BLOOD !" These startling headings suggest ed themselves to us as we mentally asked the question, What do those of our patrons mean, who make no effort to pay ? A short time ago we sent out an even 400 duns, not one of them for less than $4. The re sponse was scarcely enough to pay the postage. What on earth are we to do ? We can't buy paper, furnish labor, pay postage, rent, and the Lord only knows what all, without money. Must we shut up our es tablishment because we cannot get enough ready cash to keep it run ning ? There are hundreds who owe us a mere trifle of from two to ten dollars that would put us out of all embarrassment if they would on ly pay up. We appeal to you to do it. Do not pay all other debts and leave your printing VII stand until the publishers are ruLaed by your dereliction. It pains us to write so wickedly, but every other expedient has failed, and now to evade the declaration of war, PAY UP! LOCAL AND PERSONAL Brief Mention—Home-made and Stolen. Go to the polls And vote a solid ticket. See that your neighbor goes to the election. There is a scarcity ofgood apples this season. The different churches in town were largely attended on Sunday. The boys are hunting up boxes and barrels for a bonfire on election night. Sunday was a lovely day, the weather being as pleasant and balmy as May. The tunneling of a section of the Fifth street sewer did not prove a success. A patent has been granted to our friend, James Maguire, esq., for sanddriers. The auditorium of the new Lutheran church, in this place, is being handsomely frescoed. Snow covered the peaks of the Allegheny mountain during the cold snap of a week ago. The time is near at hand when the small boy will polish up his coat sleeve with the end of his nose. The little sparrows are monarchs of all they survey, the summer birds having left for warmer climes. The name of the potato bug, in Germany, is Pffisch tendiriweeb ten law bedenachtoschoopte nschaftlich theitly. The filling up Sixth street, from the old Presbyterian church to the railroad, is a de cided improvement. The prettiest girl in Huntingdon has not passed along Fifth street since work was corn tnenced on the sewer. J. R. Carmon's store room, on Washington street, has had an addition of twenty-five feet att.tched to its rear end. A la , ge lot of English and German Almanacs, or 18,8, for sale at the JOURNAL Store. Also a splendid lot of diaries. tf. Organize relief societies, as there promises to be much need of these benevolent institu• tions during the approaching winter. We are informed that Isi'Murtrie's curb-stone market will be revived again on Saturday next, and will be continued indefinitely. The carpenters arc still working on the spire of the Baptist church, and in a tew days more, from present appearances, will complete the job. Blue Jeans Williams, Governor of Indiana, passed through this place, en route for Wash ington, on Day Express, on Thursday of last week. Rev. 13. F. Riddle, in his Sunday morning sermon, spoke of Sabbath breaking in lan guage so plain that he could not be misunder stood. It is a great pity that the Council did not pass a resolution to extend the sewer the en tire length of Filth street. It is not too late yet, however. The fellow who borrows his neighbor's JOUR rui, every week has any amount of cheek, to say nothing of the quantity of impudence in his composition. Ilr3. Agnes Scott, mother of ex-Senator Scott, died at her residence, in Alexandria, on the evening of the 23d ult., at the ripe old age of 79 years. An agent is roaming through the State sell inga work entitled "The Bible Looking Glass." It is probably something to induce women to search the scriptures. That was a warm controversy between a couple of members of the Street Committee, on Monday morning last. Their language was more forcible than elegant. Judging from the actions of some people a person would be lead to believe that they own the world and have no feelings for the rights or comforts of their fellows. Our young friend, Lawrence Cott,of Colum bus, Ohio, is spending a week or two with his friends in this place. He has been suffering with a severe attack of ague. " We hope our citizens will secoud the efforts of Superintendent M'Neal to have some good lecturers here during the progress of the teachers' insti'ute in pecember next. Can no means bi . • adopted for the apprehen sion of Iluntingdc store burglars? Every few weeks a store is burglarized, and in every instance the thieves succeed in escaping de tection. The curb-stone market will be opened in front of the Franklin House, on Saturday next where our citizens can purchase butter, poul try, lard, apples, and all other articles psifa/k , necessary iu a urell-snpplied larder. The attention of the reader is called to the advertisement of the Homestead Sewing Ma chine Company. This is one of the best sell ing machines now upon the market. Good agents sell it readily and make money, Col. Jim Milliken, District Attorney of Blair county, has left for parts unknown, and it is reported that some of his late clients and others in Blair county, are out several thous and dollars by James' sudden departure. A peddler from Huntingdon arrived in this city one day last week, with a wagon load of country produce. Ha remained here two days and a half before he sold out, and then he came out thirty-five cents behind the cost of of the goods.—Altoona Globe. Rev. J. W. Chichester, of Altoona, is about to severe his connection with the Second Presbyterian church of that city, whose past or he has been for a number of years past. He has a call from the Presbyterian church of Titusville at a salary of $3,000. Tyrone's latest sensation was a fight between lawyer Riddle and constable Riddle, two of the heavy weights of that village. Rumor has it that the constable came off second best, after which the gladiators shook hands and everything was serene as a midsummer's morn ing. Some of the "upper ten" ladies of Hollidays burg, if we are to believe a Blair county ex change, drink lager beer to excess. The creature who would furnish beer to females should be compelled to live the remainder of his days under the same root with his mother in-law. A lady passed up Fifth street, on Monday morning, wearing one of the long and sweep ing skirts so much admired by the fair sex.— its trimmings consisted of straw, mud, "gut ter snipes" and old quids of tobacco, whic'i it had gathered from the side-walk during her promenade. Blanton—blatant would be the proper name —Duncan, of Kentucky made a speech for the Labor Reformers in Altoona, one night last week, in which he took occasion to boast of his aristocratic lineage, but failed to tell them that not long since he called the workingmen "mudsills." Out upon such demagogues. While in Philadelphia, a week or so ago, we dropped in on our friend Will. P. Conrad, with Smyth, Field it Co., No. 411 Market St., and found it the largest Notion house in the city and in business up to his eyes. William is a clever fellow and will always be glad to see any of our merchants when they drop down there. Our esteemed friend, Lalla Rookh Cunning ham, formerly of Huntingdon, is a prominent contributor to several Philadelphia papers. Her articles are remarkable for good, strong common sense, a quality greatly needed in much of the literature of the present day. We congratulate our friend upon her debut in the field of literature and hope that she may nev er regret the step. Information reaches us that Lowry, Eichel berger & Co., are running their forges and fur nace at Barree to their utmost capacity, turn ing out an excellent quality of charcoal iron. They chopped from 10,000 to 11,000 cords of wood this season. They will have sufficient stock on hands to run until next spring. This speaks well for these hard times. If every other furnace and forge in this region were do ing as well the panic would be over. We hope it is fast disappearing. During the past week several parties have been hunting through the woods adjacent to this place for the remains of the German fres co painter, who so mysteriously disappeared on the Sth ult., but their search was unsuc cessful. On Sunday last the water was drawn from the canal, above town, for the same pur pose, but it amounted to nothing, We hear it stated that the missing man had been seen in Hollidaysburg, but upon inquiry we were un able to trace the rumor to any authentic source. From the Evening Mirror we learn that the officers of the Pittsburgh division of the Penn sylvania railroad, who went eaet last week with the inspection trains, returned in the early part of the week, being well pleased cc ith the condition of the track its entire length— between Pittsburgh and Jersey City. Accord ing to the register made by the "trackometer," there were 11 taps of the bell on the Pittsburgh division, 56 on the middle division, 93 on the Philadelphia division and 15 on the New York division. SPORTING NOTES.- Joe. Cruse is Huntingdon's champion bass fisher. Deer are reported tolerably plenty on the Warrior Ridge this season. S. G. Whittaker, esq., one day last week, caught nine good sized bass. , They were beau ties. A Tyrone boy named Walter Zimmerman recently shot a three-pronged buck weighing one hundred and fifty pounds. Will Graffius shoots after the style of the Creedmore riflemen, by laying upon his back and using his lower limbs as a rest. Our friend, counsellor Al'Neil, has the ugli est dog in town, but he claims that he is the best in the county for rabbits and—so forth Our friend, 'Squire Harrison, has caught the hunting feyer, and we saw pass our office, the other day, with a squirrel's tail hanging gut of his game—bag. The ripe team met for practice on Thursday 4fternoon, but failed to band us their score for publication, whether on account of the bad shooting or negligence we are not prepared to say. A party of hunters left this place, on Mon— day last, for a few days hunt in the wilds of Juniata township, where they purpose camp ing during their sojourn. If they don't get much game they will have any amount of sport. Howard Smith and Jack McCahan, whilst rabbit bunting, on Piney Ridge, the other night, came across a large-sized skunk, which their dogs soon dispatched, and the aroma that filled the air was not as pleasant to the olfactories as the ottf. -of roses would have been. The usual weekly practice of shooting at glass balls came off on Friday afternoon. On this occasion fifteen balls were fired at by each marksman; five on a line with the trap, five from the left and five from the right side, with the following result : F. W.

He shot her first in the neck and a second shot penetrated the lights of the beast. After receiving the second shot she charged on Mr. M., but when within about six feet of him, with mouth open, and in a ter rible rage, a small dog nipped her from the rear, and caused her to wheel around, by which time a couple of larger dogs came up, and a lively fight ensued, but ended in a few min utes, the loss of blood from the wounds caus ing the bear to succumb. Mr. Mong was just in the act of shooting a cub from a tree when the old one made her appearance. The cub escaped while Mr. M.'s attention was attracted by the bear's scuffle with the dogs.—Tyrone Herald. STORE ROBBED.—The hardware store of Samuel McCulloch, in this place, was burglarized, on Friday night last, of goods' to the value of about $3OO. The articles stolen were five revolvers, silver spoons, napkin rings, several cases of extra fine table cutlery, a large number of pocket knives, Mr. McCul loch's overcoat and a knit jacket belonging to Mr. Chaney. A private box, in which Mr. Chaney kept his valuable papers, was also carried away. The money drawer was carried a short distance down the alley, where it was found neXt morning rifled of its contents. On Saturday afternoon the boxes in which the *le Cutlery had been packed were found secreted in Henry k Co' ;umber yard. An entrance was effected by forcing the front F doors, and the opinion is that the robbery was committed by tramps. P. S. A letter from Mr. McCulloch states that' he has two of the burglars under arrest at Harrisburg, and that he has found some of the pen-knives, his overcoat and Mr. Chaney's waistcoat. RNPUBLIOAN NEETINO.—Thc flrst Re publican meeting of the campaign was held in the Court House, on Friday evening last, and an audience of three to four hundred persons assembled to hear the Hon. C. F. Warwick champion the cause of Republicanism. He is a pleasant and eloquent speaker, and for over an hour had the closest attention of the large audience. Messrs. Passmore and Hart, can didates for Auditor General and State Treas urer, were present, and made brief addresses. They feel confident of the success of the ticket on Tuesday next, and desire that Huntingdon county Republicans do their whole duty on that day, which we hope they will do by turn ing out to the election and voting the ticket solid from Sterrett down to Brumbaugh.

AVTEMPTtD SUICIDE.—A Young Man Tries to lull liiinself—Love, Gin and Laudanum —Arrest of the Inmates of a louse of 111 Fame. Sadie Keller is the proprietress of a house of bad repute, !Co. 232, Raspberry avenue, above Cranberry. On Saturday a young man known as Edward W. Fisher, aged about 22 years, and who is of genteel appearance, stopped with Sadie. During the day—according to the statement of both Fisher and the woman —he hired a conveyance at one of the livery stables and treated his inamorita to a buggy ride, taking her across the river to see her relatives. In the evening when they returned, another man—who Sadie says is her "friend" —named G. R. Kreager, of Selinsgrove, made his appearance at the Keller residence, and. as Fisher states, the woman gave him the "cold shoulder," hanging on to Kreager. This treatment on Sadie's part affected Fisher so much that he went to "a drug store and pur chased an ounce of laudanum." He went back to the place again, he says, and after finding that lie stood no chance at all, mixed the laudanum with a big dose of gin and swal lowed it, telling Sadie previously be avers, what he intended doing. He swallowed the dose, he said, about ten o'clock. During the evening, lie stated, he also purchased a new revolver of an improved seven shooter pattern, at a store corner North and Elder streets, and charged every chamber of the weapon, intend ing to use it in case the laudanum failed to perform its part. About 11.15 p. m., the resi• dents of that neighborhood beard the report of a pistol and upon going up to the spot whence the report came found Fisher sitting on the step of No. 232, with a pistol wound in his left breast. He was taken to the mayor's office, and after making a statement, which was taken down in writing, he was sent to the Harrisburg hospital, where, after an examina tion, it was ascertained that the wound was not mortal. Lieutenant Weltmer, on duty at the office during the night, immediately dispatched offs• cers Hockley, Snyder and Ludwig to Sadie Keller's house where they found and arrested Sadie Keller, her sister Josephine Keller, Liz zie Lander, and a certain young Harrisburger, whose name is withheld on account of being respectably connected. Two other well known 'solid doves" made their escape. The above named party were locked up for a hearing at nine o'clock to day. The young Harrisburger alluded to was bailed last evening for his appearance at the hearing. Dr. DuNott found the ball in Fisher's left side, a little below the arm pit, near the first rib, and extracted it. The would-be suicide says that "he first laid his hand upon his heart to feel the location," contemplating to make a sure job of it, but his hand being unsteady from the effects of gin and laudanum, he failed to place the pistol in the right direc tion, and the ball which struck a little below the nipple, merely passed around the chest, and lodged where it was found and was easily removed. He was considered entirely out of danger last evening--in fact had partaken of a light supper, and was comparatively cheerful —only regretting "that Sadie had not got the dose instead of himself, and that she had died on Kreager's hands." Sadie Keller denies that she had aught to do with Fisher, save that she accepted his gallantry and drove around with him during the afternoon. The matter will be thoroughly sifted at the hearing to-day. _ . Ereager, who made his escape from the house when the above named party were arrested, followed theta to the mayor's office, and was "nabbed" there by Lieutenant Welt mer, and locked up for a hearing.—Harris burg Patriot of Monday. Ed. Fisher is a native of this town, and is the son of very respectable parents who have the sympathies of the entire community in their sufferings over the reprehensible conduct of this young man. "Eddy" has always been a source of great annoyance to his parents, but last winter he gave promise of doing bet ter, and professing religion he attached him self to the West Huntingdon M. E. church, The members of that church having confidence in him soon elected him Assistant Librarian of the Sabbath school connected with it, but in a very little while "Eddy" betrayed that confidence by forging the name of Rev. J. R. Akers to an order for $3.50, which he present ed to Mrs. Wingate, treasurer of the school, and obtained the money. For this act he escaped arrest through sympathy for his aged parents and by his promises to make restitu tion of the money. He then left town, and we understand was employed on one of the west ern railroads for a month or two, but he soon earied in well doing, and concluded to make his living without manual labor. To accomp plish this end he forged the name of his brother, H. W. Fisher, of this place, to a check for $50.65, and got the money upon it from a cracker dealer in Pittsburgh with whom he knew his brother dealt. In a few days after be turned up in Cumberland, Md., where he per petrated another forgery, again using his brother's name, for $20.00, upon which he also obtainbd the money. Soon after these forgeries he had the boldness to come to Hun tingdon, and after remaining here a few days he took his departure, and the next heard of him was on Sunday morning last, where a telegram was received by his parents announc ing his being shot at Harrisburg. It is a great pity that "Eddy's" knowledge of anato my was so deficient. Since the above was in type we clip the fol lowing from the Harrisburg relegrap4 : "Fisher is wanted at Duncannon on a charge of larcency, stealing an umbrella and gold watch, and on a charge of having forged a check for $25.75, preferred by a resident of that place." Renovation not Prostration. Did any enfeebled human being ever become strung under the operation of powerful cath artics or salivants ? It is sometimes necessary to regulate the bowels, but that cannot be done by active purgation, which exhausts the vital forces and serves no good purpose what ever. The only true way to promote health and vigor, which are essential to regularity of the organic functions, is to invigorate, dici pliue and purify the system at the same time. The extraordinary efficacy of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in cases of debility or irregu larity of the organs of digestion, assimilation, secretion and discharge, is universally admit ted. Appetite, good digestion, a reguiar habit of body, active circulation of the blood, and purity of all the animal fluids are induced by this superb tonic and corrective. It has no equals, moreover, as a preventitive of chills and fever, and other types of malarial disease. To emigrants and travelers it is particularly serviceable as a medicinal safeguard. Nov. 2-Im.

PENNY WISE AND In nothing is the above more illustrated than in the course many pursue in certain kinds of disease. In order to save a few cents they have what they call their own prescriptions, such as Balsam Copabia, Turpentine, Sc., little knowing the baneful influence these drugs have on the constitution, the disgusting smell from the breath, and, with all these disadvantages, there is CO saving of money, as the dose has to be renewed over and over again until at last 'he condition of the patient becomes alarm ing; then dther means have to be resorted to. Read the words of a sufferer : Desmond & 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 handred dollars—first for this medi cine, then for that—without any benefit. A few days ago a friend told me of the Samaritan's tl,ft; be said it would certainly cure toe. This is whil addl - ess 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.
