but fair dealers use our columns. Buy from
them.

The sight was a pitiable one to see the offi
cers of a town of four thousand inhabitants
importuning impecunious printers to publish
the annual statement of said borough without
charge. It was a cheeky request.
An unusual number of drunken persons
were visible upon our streets on Sunday, and
the query presents itself, where did they get
the liquor? If the temperance people would
make the effort they could find out.
The Jackson township squibs do not find a
place in the JOURNAL for the reason that the

We are in receipt of a copy of the Brown
ville, (Ind.) Inquirer, containing an able and
interesting article on "Children and their
Education," from the pen of Mrs. M. A. Seitz,
nee Grim, a native of our town and for a long
time a teacher in our public schools.
Our townsman and esteemed friend, Rev. A.
Nelson Ilollifield, reported the proceedings of
the Presbytery for the Altoona Tribune during
its late session in that city. The reports were
very full and interesting, and required con
siderable time and labor to get them up.
Col. W. 11. Maynard, of Johnstown, was
visible upon our streets on Monday. During
his stay he visited the JOURNAL sanctum and

See advertisement in another column.
We are indebted to our friend, H. Greenberg,

It was in the shape of a cracker, nine inches
in diameter, of virgin whiteness, and rather
toothsome.
We are pleased to learn that the estimable
wife of our old friend and patron, Col. R. A.
M'Murtrie, of Hollidaysburg, who has been
lying dangerously ill at the St. Cloud, is
Philadelphia, for several weeks past, has re
covered sufficiently to permit her removal to
her home.
The prospects for Altoona being selected as
the place for holding the coming State fair are
most encouraging. She has the grounds, the
hotel accommodations, is centrally located,
and we don't see that the management could
select a better place. We would vote for Al
toona every time.
We have been informed that Henry Ward
Beecher will lecture in the Penn street Opera
House, in this place, on Monday evening, May
5. The world wide fame of Mr. Beecher
should be sufficient to pack the ball as full as
it usually is on the occasions of free exhibi
Lions. More anon.
A large barn on the Blair Furnace farm, in
Blair county, in the occupancy of Mr. Jacob
Forsht, was totally destroyed by fire on Satur
day afternoon last, together with live stock,
agricultural implements and grain, the whole
footing up a loss of $4,000. There was no in
surance, and the cause of the fire is a mystery.
The University- Singers, of New Orleans, a
double quartette—colored—of Jubilee Singers
genuine and true, direct from New Orleans
and Nashville, will give one of their entertain
ments in the M. E. Church, at Alexandria, on
Monday night, April 21, 1879, commencing at
8 o'clock, for benefit of said church. Admit
tance, 25 cents.
Williamsport humped its back when Hun
tingdon was selected as a site for the Middle
Penitentiary, and finally succeeded in having
Lycoming county put hack to its old place in
the Eastern district. That wine supper didn't
catch the commission. In the words of Dick
Deadeye, Williamsport was "on the wrong
`ack."—Harrisburp Telegraph.
A young man named McGonigle, who hailed
from Porter township, came to town the other
day, filled himself with bad whiskey, and was
"spilin 7 " to fight some person. Kidney Gantz,
a colored youth, accommodated him, and gave
him a severe drubbing. The case will likely
go to Court and cost the county a hundred
dollars or so. Charge it to. whiskey.
An up-town gentleman, who entploys several
hands, makes it a rule to dock them for any
time they lose in the moaning, and if they fail
to make it up the amount is deducted from
their wages at the end of the week. This is
nothing more than fair ; employees have no
right to expect full time when they are from
a qu,arter to three-quarters of an hour late
commencing work.
Rev. F. B. Riddle, formerly of the Methodist
Episcopal Church of your city, is now the
duly installed pastor of the Methodist Episco
pal Church of this place. Mr. Riddle is one
of the ablest men of the Central Pennsylvania
Conference, and we have no doubt will be
fully appreciated by our Tyrone people. As
a preacher he certainly has few superiors.—
Tyrone correspondence Altoona Tribune.
The proprietors of the Altoona rolling mill,
a few days ago, locked their doors against
those of their employees who were members
of the "union," and refused to permit them to
resume work unless they withdrew from that
organization. This is the proper way to treat
men who will band together for the purpose
of interfering with the private business of
individuals companies or corporations. These
.'unions" are a curse to the country.
Prof. Zuck, of the Hunti,ngdon Normal
School, informs us that that institution is in a
most flourishing condition, every room in the
large and handsome building being occupied.
It will be necessary, in the near future, to add
another building as large as the present one.
Prof. Zuck has labored hard since he came
amongst us and we are pleased to note that
his efforts are being crowned with success.
The Fifth street dial of the town clock,
which has been broken and useless for a
month of Sundays, is hunkedori again, having
been repaired by T. Wilday Black and Benny
Africl. And just here it might be well
enough to say that the broken dial was put
together with Van Stan's Stratena Cement,
purchased at the JOURNAL Store, the best
article of the kind ever manufactured. It will
mend everything, we believe, but the broken
promises of‘'dead- beat" newspaper subscribers.
Some unhung scoundrel made an unsuccess
ful attempt to fire the public school building.
On Saturday last, while the contractors were
looking through the building, they found on
the attic, a large bunch of splinters which had
been fired and placed in a position to set fire
to the roof of the building, but as good luck
would have it they did not burn sufficiently
to accomplish the damnable work intended.
There is no way of finding out whether the
attempt to fire the building is of recent date
or not.
The Northern Cambria News is the name of
a new paper just started at Carrolltown, Cana
brie county, by T. S. Williams. The new can
didate for public favor is a twenty-four col
umn sheet, of Democratic proclivities ; and is
printed on the "patent outside" plan, at $l,OO
a year. The paper presents a very creditable
appearance, and we wish its publisher may
make a fortune out of it, but by the time he
runs it six months be will come to the con
elusion that he has not got much of a bonanza
after all.
Subscribers who desire the address of their
paper changed from one post office to another,
should be careful to give the name of the
office at which the paper was last received.
We received a postal card the other day from
a subscriber requesting us to change the ad
dress of his paper, but he failed to name the
old office, and the result was we had to run
over our list of upwards of 1800 names before
we could find his name. By attending to this
matter patrons can save publishers consider
able time and trouble,
Mr. Simpson, of Huntingdor., has erected a
handsome and substantial fence of bronze iron
around Mr. George - A. McCormick's lot in
Fairview cemetery. The chief feature of Mr.
B's. work is its firmness, and its resistance to
action of frost and time.—Altoona Tribune.
This speaks well for the work done by Mr.
Simpson when people from a distance will
purchase it in preference to that manufactured
at home. This gentlen;lau has the reputation
of turning out the handsomest and best work
in this section of the State.
Huntingdon has another w%nt. This time
it is a company which shall furnish $lOO,OOO
to go into the business of manufacturing tele
graph machines after a fashion designed by
Mr. W. W. Gary, the inventor of the new mag
netic motor.—Cumbria Freeman.
Well, we've got it. Inside of three days
time the stock was all taken, and to-day could
be sold at a premium of S3O. Huntingdon
has gut out of the slough of old fogyism, and.
when her people make up their minds to do a
thing they do it forthwith. Vide the Normal
School, the new penitentiary, the new school
building, and last and best of all the Gary
Magnetic Machine IVorks. Ain't we "boomin"? '
John Gantz, an old colored man who re
sided in West Huntingdon, died suddenly on
Friday night last, as is supposed, of heart
disease. He had worked all day of Friday,
came home in the evening, ate his supper and
retired to bed without complaining. Some
time during the night he got up out of bed
and went down stairs for a drink of water,
and as he staved considerable time his wife
followed to see what detained him. When
she got down stairs be was about starting to
return, and motioned her to precede him,
which she did. When be reached his bed
room he threw himself upon the bed and ex
claimed, "Oh ! Lord, what is this ?" and im
mediately expired. The deceased was about
69 years of age, S and leaves a wife and several
children and step-children to mourn his sud
den death.
We spent a very pleasant hour, on Friday
afternoon, at the entertainment given by the
scholars of Prof. White, Miss Emma J. Isen
berg, and Miss Mary McCoy. The exercises
were varied by declamations, dialogues, sing
ing, etc., and were of a highly interesting
character, reflecting credit both upon teachers
and pupils. A great number of visitors were
present, and all were well pleased. A similar
entertainment was given the same afternoon
by the scholars under charge of Mr. Evans,
which we hear spoken of in the highest terms.
Prof. Geo. W. Sanderson's school gave a pub
lic entertainment in the Town Hall on Satur
day evening, which was largely attended, the
spacious room being packed almost to suffo
cation. The exercises were of the most in
teresting character, reflecting credit on all
concerned.
ART OF ADVERTISING.—This is float
ing about on the sea of newspaperdom, and as
it is applicable to this neighborhood we give
it place in the local columns of the JOURNAL :
"Business men and other advertisers squall
der largo sums of money in advertising in
ephmeral publications with limited circula
tions and in out of the-way methods. They
pass by respectable newspapers with bona fide
circulations to patronize cheap concerns,
because they are cheap. AcLion like this is
about as wise as that of the ostrich when he
hides his head iu the sand, leaving all the rest
of his body exposed, and imagines himself
safe. So with the advertiser when he puts
his card in one of these "catch-penny or work
at-any-price-and-board-themselves publ i e a
tions," he imagines that he has done a great
thing, and complacently sits down to await
customers that never come, or to be captured
in his business by some one whose enterprise
and business tact enables him to discern the
true method of advertising by using legitimate
newspapers. The Cincinnati Gazette thinks
it one of the queer things in business this
propensity of people to seek irregular medi
ums for advertising. It is unaccountable the
prices some men pay for sticking their adver
tisements in irregular places. Especially is
this so when compared with their unwiliing
ness to pay anything for advertising in regular
channels. Men will pay large sums for insert
ing their business cards in a section of a hotel,
bar room, street car, railway station, or in a
hotel register, or an almanac, or guide book,
or annual of one sort or another. The by
ways they seek, and those who successfully
solicit them are innumerable. Likewise they
will spend large sums for printing special
circulars, and in postage to send them. In
all this they ignore the most essential condi
tion in advertising, namely, that it has the
character and effect from the medim through
which it is given to the reader. Advertise
ments thrust into irregular and unbusiness
places impress the general mind that the
concern is of a similar character. On the
other side an advertisement in a general news
paper of first-class standing carries the im
pression that the advertiser has a standing in
his own community which he is not afraid to
show to his neighbors, and that he does not
shrink from competition with the best of them.
These are the different impressions that are
made on all minds by advertising in a journal
of high character and circulation among the
reputable class, and when seen in by places
and irregular or low channels. Every one
finds this in his own feelings, if he would but
think on the subject. If any one is going to a
place to buy, whether lie be a trader or buy
ieg for his own use, and has . to seek dealers
through advertisements, where will he look
for them ? The registers, almanacs, theatre
bill frames, in railway stations, occasional
advertising sheet or circular? On the con
trary, he looks to the most reputable newspa
per of the place, and he thinks the advertising
in these gives an assurance of the good stand
ing of the advertiser and his business enter
prise, and of the sufficiency of his stock."
SWINDLERS,—THEIR OPERATIONS IN
THIS AND OTHER COIINTIES.-With gentle
spring come the swindlers and several of them
have been operating in this and other coun
ties. One of them has adopted the following
plan :
lie left a plow at a farmer's, with the ver
bal consent to use the plow and if not liked
to return it. He also left a printed advertise
ment of its merits. The farmer, looking over
it, found a notice in due form, stating that
when trial is made of the plow, the agent
must be notified within two days and given a
chance to regulate the working of it. Many
farmers will never see this notice, but will
take the advertisement heedlessly and then
through failure to notify in two days will be
compelled to keep the plow, inasmuch as the
agent can be qualified that the farmer was
duly notified and the farmer cannot deny re
ceiving it. . . .
Two men have been operating in Berks
county, professing to sell coal oil at attrac
tive rates. The strangers took the signatures
of all farmers desiring oil, at the same time
giving them a trial quart. Each farmer was
required to sign a blank agreement to take so
much oil per month at such a price, provi
ding it proved satisfactory. These blank agree
ments were in a book specially prepared for
the business. The leaves were double, the
lower portion protruding about a half-inch,
the sheet or page in the book being doubled
down from the top, and the edge so nicely
parted as to escape the closest scrutiny. The
agreement was written on the upper surface
and the signature attached below. All the
swindlers would have to do would be to re
move the upper half and then they
would have a blank sheet of paper with the
tarmer's name upon which they would write
any sort of a promisory note. A number of
these fradulent notes, amounting to several
hundred dollars, were thus pat into circula
tion. The men were not coal oil dealers.
We find the above in the Lancaster Express,
and publish it in order that our farmer friends
may be prepared for these scoundrels in case
they should put in an appearance in the rural
districts of our county. The country is over
run with villains of this class who resort to
every imaginable device to defraud the un
suspecting. The safest plan to pursue is to
deal with no man who is unknown to you.
Whenever a stranger comes to you and wants
you to sign your name to a paper of any kind,
you can rest assured that he wants to fleec e
you, and the best and wisest thing for you t o
do is to kick him out of your house and dog
him off your premises.
HEADSTONES FOR SOLDIERS' GRAVES.
It is probably generally remembered that some
years ago—in 1873—Congress passed a law
providing for the erection of durable head
stones over the graves of soldiers of the reg
ular and volunteer forces of the United States
whose remains are interred in the National
Military Cemeteries. This law has been car
ried out, and the graves of the Nation's dead
in these cemeteries are now permanently
marked. At the instance of the War Depart
ment, Congress has recently authorized the
erection of similar headstones over the graves
of the Union soldiers who are buried in pri
vate and village cemeteries. This will be
done as soon as the necessary arrangements
can be made. In the meantime Quartermaster
General, at Washington, will at once proceed
to collect the necessary information as to
where these headstones are required.
411 persons having any knowledge of the
burial places of soldiers in private cemeteries
whose graves are not marked, are requested
to communicate the fact to the Quartermaster
General, and give regiment, company, and
date of death of deceased, if known. Similar
information is desired from parties in charge
of Bach cemeteries.
Qf course it is not intended to furnish head
stones for graves over which monuments have
already been erected by rfd4tives or friends of
the deceased.
FARMERS, don't forget that Sam'l. Mc-
Culloch sells the best articles of FORKS,
SHOVELS, RAKES and all kinds of FARM
ING TOOLS lower than any other man in
town. Hay rope and Pulleys a specialty. 4-4 t.
MR. GARY'S DISCOVERY.—For several
weeks past articles have appeared in the cor
respondents' department of the Scientific Anyr
ican, from gentlemen who seem to take delight
in writing uron a subject which they do sot
unde stand, or understanding, have not [he
honesty to write that which is true. These
articles have been read by a gentleman in
Boston, and in the Post of that city, of the
10th inst., he publishes the following com
munication iti answer to the articles in ques
tion :
To one who knows the facts in the case, the
stir made by some Fcientific persons and semi
scientific newspapers in regard to the discovery
of a hitherto unknown law in magnetism and the
invention of a new magnetic motor, based on that
law, is as amusing as it is surprising. By the
size of the bricks thrown and the number of hard
names called one would infer that it is feared in
certain quarters that there is danger of Mr. Gary's
turning the world upside down with his small
magnet and three-penny nail ; and no doubt that
modest and well disposed gentleman is astonished
to find himself suddenly regarded as a dangerous
character against whom society has need to be
protected by violent end abusive newspaper
attacks. If, as one of his detractors avers, the
most that Mr. Gary has done is to assume that
'two and two make five, or even twenty," it does
seem as if the efforts put forth against him, in
support of the old theory that two and two mak.
four, are greater than the danger of the situation
calls for.
It ought not to be regarded as a very extraor
dinary thing that a man of superior natural en
dowments, although not highly educated in the
schools, devoting himself a dozen years to experi
meeting in a particular department of natural
science, should find out something new, and tin
predjudicen persons, not affected by the conceit
which a professional vocation sometimes inspires
in not very large minds, find it difficult to see how
the recognition of a discovery thus made leads
anybody to "deep ice all training," or in any way
injures the cause of education. At any rate, the
facts of nature will continue to be facts whether
discovered in a way to suit our preferences or
otherwise, and the true votaries of science will
continue to welcome them wherever and however
found.
It is true that it would be more in accordance
with the idea many people have of the "fitness of
things" if Mr. Gary's discovery of the "neutral
line" and "change of polarity" had been made by
some one of the thirteen very distinguished
savants one of his critics names as the persons
who should have made such a discovery if the
discovery were possible. But to hinder the pleas
ant gratification of our sense of propriety in this
regard there comes up the troublesome fact ',had
these gentlemen did not make the discovery and
that Mr. Gary did, and the world will have to
accept it, as it has many others, from more humble
hands.
It does seem. too, as if such an important thing,
if a reality, ought to have been inentiiined in the
"extensive literature" of the subject, to which
another writer refers in discussing Mr. Gary's
claims, and considering how much easier it would
have made the patient experimenter's task, it is
too bad that he could mot find "in the books"
what he was seeking fat But by a remarkable
perversity in scientific literature new things do
not get into the books till somebody discovers
them, and nature does not always yield up her
secrets to those most learned in what has already
been ascertained, but sometimes to those most
persistent in searching for that which remains to
be discovered.
It is to be regretted that any writer in discussing
Mr. Gary's claims should have seen fit to use ex
pressions tending to excite the prejudices of the
schools against the learned. Ile is one of the
warmest friends of the cause of education, and
most heartily rejoices in the good fortune of those
who have enjoyed its highest advantages. He
asks credit for nothing which he cannot demon
strate. lie is one of the most devoted friends of
science, for his discovery is only an advance step
in scientific achievement, and he naturally I >oke
to scientific men for sympathy in his work, end
when without adequately investigating the facts
he . resents, some mistaken pereous of this class
turn against him in contempt, he justly feels that
they are not injuring him merely, but, much more,
themselves and the cause of science. He, however,
receives all this sort of treatment calmly, as he
can afford to, knowing as he does that he is right,
that his fame and his fortune are assured, and
that he already has the friendship and the favor
of scores of the genuine friends of science, there
being not one of those most competent to judge of
it, who have fully investigated his discovery, but
admits its re tlity and the justice of his claims
The idea that to admit the genuineness of Mr.
Gary's discovery encourages "contempt for ali
training" is as full of absurdity as it is of conceit.
Nobody is ever hurt by the truth, come where and
how it may, except those who are entrenched in
error. The discovery of a law of nature as the
result of ten years' incessant etuoy at experiment
ing inspires contempt fur nothing but superficiality
and pretence. When hundreds of clear-headed
men, having witnessed its complete demonstration,
know for a certainty that an announced discovery
is genuine, while learned men occupying high
positions denounce it as an absurdity and a fraud,
it is not the fortunate d ?cover who is exciting
contempt for "training," but those in whom the
fruits of training are so poorly illustrated.
Agassiz is reported to have said that whenever
a new and startling fact in science is brought to
light people fait say, "It is not true." then "It
contrary to religion," and, lastly, thet ''Every
body knew• it before." Substituting the word
"science" for •'religion," this does not inaptly ex
press the experieece Mr. Gary is now having.
Fer the credit of the schools, one can but wish
that this sort of reception fur new truth wigh
always be left to the ignorant.
Of Mr. Gary's critics, those who have denounced
his claims the most positively are those who have
spoken from a distance or who have really known
little or nothing of the facts in question. They
claim to know that his discovery cannot he genuine.
But how do they snow it? They know it as the
English Board of Admiralty knew that Ericsson's
propeller could not be successfully applied to nevi-
Wien, and so lost for their country the credit of
first adopting this great improvement—as the
United States Naval Commission knew that a
vessel of the monitor pattern could not be kept
afloat, and so at first rejected what one hundred
days afterward saved our navy—and as the Col
lege of Physicians in Philadelphia knew that the
discovery of ether as an antethetio was a humbug.
These eminent men knew these things were not
possible, or thought they knew it, merely because
they sere not informed in regard to them. But it
is not safe even for the most learned ei assume
that what they already know covers the whole
field of achievement in any department of science.
The time has gone by, if it ever existed, when
learned assumption either meets the demands of
science or answers the purpose of earnest men, and
all who expect to keep in the race of the world's
progress will take good care not to deny and de
nounce where they have not fully investigated
That sort of wisdom which has assumed to know
more about Mr: Gary's disoovery than he knows
himself, or than hundreds of others know who
have seen his fasts demonstrated, must soon look
in a glass where it will see itself reflected as folly,
for Mr. Gary has the facts in the case, and it has
never yet been shown that even the loftiest as
sumption can stand long against the facts and the
laws of nature. B.
M'CONNELLSTOWN NOTES
Moving time is about over.
Farmers are done sowing oats.
M'Connellstown has two schools in success
ful operation this summer.
Messrs. William Pouch and Frank Cullier

A Sabbath day in M'Connellstown : At
half past nine o'clock A. M., the children all
assemble in the Reformed church for Sabbath
School services. This school is quite large,
consisting of about ona hundred and fifty or
more active members, and is superintended by
Mr. Joseph Eiseuburg, esq. The church is
supplied with a good organ, and much interest
is manifested in the way of supplying the
school with choice Sabbath School music.
This delights the little urchins who swarm
together in vast numbers to receive advice
and instruction. After an hour and a half is
spent in this manner they go from the fie
formed to the Methodist church to attend the
noon services. At 2 o'clock P. )1., the children
and others interested in the work meet in the
M. E. church, and there they spend another
hour in reciting their various tasks. At night
we again meet alternately in the two churches,
where we are all entertained by interesting
talks from our ministers. Thus endeth
Sabbath day's work at M'Connellstown.

COURT PROCEEDINGS.—A great throng.
a multitude of petty criminal cases, rowdyism
and drunkenness on our streets, now and
then a trial that is full of funny incidents, and
more rarely a case of villainy and wrong
which calls to Mel) heaven for justice ; this
is the neek of the Q'arter Sessions Court.
Court was not tailed until 2 o'clock Mon
day. The afternoon was almost entirely oc
cupied in hearing an unusually large number
of motions and petitions by members of the
bar, in receiving returns of constables, swear
ing in new officers, &c. The regular Quarter
Sessiou3 were opened at 5.20, P. 11. 7 with the
trial of one Joseph Shingler for fornication
and bastardy upon oath of Keziali Webb. The
trial was remarkable for the zeal displayed
for and against the defendant, and the Judge
in charging the jury discussed the law relating
to the case with a completeness which is un
usual in the trial of this class of misdemean
ors. The defendant was convicted.
Commonwealth vs. David R. Fleming, was
the next case. Fleming is a son of Captain
George Fleming, of Alexandria. He was
charged with adultery with Carrie E. House
holder, a pretty lass of 16, residing at the
same piece. The testimony of Carrie was of
course the principal evidence against Fleming,
and in addition there were adduce& confes
sions alleged to have been Made by him to
Carrie's grandmother, and others. Mr. Bailey
conducted the prosecution and Messrs. Speer
and P. M. Lytle the defense. When the old
lady was on the stand she testified with posi
tive vehemence against Fleming, and was a
most dangerous witness for the defense to
cope with. Mr. Speer attempted to cross ex
amine her. He asked her if she was not anx
ious to lave the case compromised—if in part
it was not a black-mailing scheme. "Bey !
what did you say V and looked at her inter
locutor with an expression of injured inno
cence that would have made the fortune of
any actress who could have imitated her upon
the stage. This was the beginning of a con
test which was steel against steel, and it need
scarcely be added that the old lady did not
leave the stand until she had the last word.
The defense, in this case, rested mainly on
the theme that this prosecution was institu
ted by Carrie's father for the purpose of ex
torting black mail from the Flemings, it be
ing known that they were likely to receive
money from the Penn'a. Canal Co. The de
fendant testified that he was innocent. A
witness named Keech was put on the stand to
break down the testimony of Carrie and her
grandmother, and the following dialogue en
sued:
Q.—What did Carrie's father tell you about
indicting Fleming?
A.—He told we he pitched his tent, like the
Egyptians, on Dr. Charlton's son—he didn't
say that exactly, but that's what he did; but
there was no child and he heard Flemings
were to get some money and then he pitched
—he didn't say pitched, but that's what he
meant—l don't know what you call it, but
there's where he pitched.
Q.—Do you know Carrie's grandmother ?
A.—Yes.
Q —What is her reputation for truth ?
A.—Well, from what I can understand she
is a mischief-maker, and she is repo.ted in
Alexandria for spooks, (roars of laughter). I
had to go and watch Dr. 'louts' grave for her.
Q.—But what do the people say about her
as a woman of veracity ?
A.—Well now I can't say anything about
that, only what I heard.
Q.—Well, that is what 1 am asking?
A.—Well, she is an old mischief-maker ever
since I was a child ; all the citizens say that,
or, (after a pause), et least they ought to I
Of course the last reply brought down the
house.
The jury in this case were oat five hours
and returned a verdict of not guilty, but that
the defendant pay all the costs. It is said
that at first the jury stood ten for conviction
and two for acquictal.
A number of cases in which boys and men,
living below town on the line of the P. R. R.,
were indicted for stealing coal from the cars,
were next disposed of. The court imposed a
minimum sentence in these cases, as they
were the first of the kind, but gave notice to
all who were in the habit of taking coal from
the railroad company, that hereafter parties
convicted of this kind of larceny will be sent
to the o penitentiary.
Frank Smithberger, the burglar, who effec
ted an entrance into Fisher &Sons office,sotne
time ago, pleaded guilty. This young man
(who is by the way quite prepossessing In
appearance), seems to be a professional
cracksman, judging from his language and
sang froid. He was sentenced to a fine of
$lOO and eight years solitary confinement, at
hard labor, in the Western Penitentiary.
Andrew Weaver, indicted for stealing a
revolver, and for an aggravated assault upon
Robert Myton, pleaded guilty, and was sen
tenced in all to $4O fine and imprisonment in
the penitentiary for four years.
David Stull, of Diamond Valley, pleaded
guilty to the larceny of meat, and was sen
tenced to $5 fine and an imprisonment in the
county jail for four months. The lightness of
his sentence was owing to his extreme youth,
and the statement of the District Attorney,
and others, that he had probably been led
astray by his companions.
Jacob Stull and Isaac Fields, for the same
offense was sentenced to fines of $2O and im
prisonment in the penitentiary for two years
each.
Daniel Shawley, indicted for participation
in the same offense, was tried. The defense
in his case was that he is weak-minded, and
although not quite irresponsible, yet not of
sufficient mental capacity to be held to the
same degree of accountability in regard to the
reception ofstolen goods, as persons of ordinary
discretion and judgment. The legal distinction
drawn in this case was interesting to criminal
lawyers. Usually a defense of insanity, al
though resulting in acquittal, also results in
the confinement of the defendant in a lunatic
asylum, The verdict is not rendered as we
close our report.
Commonwealth TS David Banks Indictment
assault and battery, with intent to commit
rape upon Eliza Chilcoat. This defendant was
found guilty, and was sentenced to pay p fine
of $lOO and undergo an imprisonment of two
years in the Western Penitentiary.
The criminal list is larger than usual, and
it is probable, from the fact that all but one
or two of the civil cases down for trial this
week are ready for trial, that Court will last
all week.

AIICT IT ROBBERY ?—A few days ago
we received a small box from Springfield, 111.,
containing three dozen bottles of ink, and
weighing nineteen and one-half pounds, the
express charge on which was one dollar and
fifty cell!. We look upon this charge as out
rageous, and little better than downright rob
bery. It is a kind of legal stealing from which
there seems to be no releif. The box in ques
tion could almost be carried in your overcoat
pocket, and the sum paid by us was sufficient,
at fair and honest rates, to have carried it to
the North Pole. It was shipped by the "Amer
jean Express" and reach"d us through the
"Adams Express," after having been on the
road twelve days. If possible there should
be laws passed to protect shippers frem being
fleeced by these soulless companies. We don't
know who is at the head of the American Ex
press Company, but whoever he may be, if
he sanctions such bold thievery, he would
make a fit accomplice for the James brothers,
the noted robbers of the Northwest.
