We received last wc.k a communication
endorsing the articles of •'Civic" relative to
the late disgraceful conduct on the way from

A "coon," weighing at least one hundred
and twenty pounds, was seen in the back part
of Jack M'Caban's corn field on Saturday
evening. When he left the field he crossed
the Crooked Creek bridge, scaled the fence
and wade his way up a hickory tree standing
in the field.
The city papers say that money is going at
easy rates "on call." It may be going "on

delinquents, but they bold on to it like "death

Geo. A. Port last week housed a first-class
sausage-cutter, and on Friday, when he had
the machine in motion, his market was visited
by large crowds of persons anxious to see it
do its work. It is the latest invention in
sausage cutters, and is it the best machine
that we have ever seen.

the time came when he had to leave us. Call

Conrad Seibert, a German residing in Cone

to his bad marksmanship he was unable to

We understand that a young man was ar

last, for purchasing beer by the keg for minors
and persons of known intemperate habits.—
His case will be tried at the November Ses

dating spirit will cost him a heavy fine and
imprisonment.
A party of drunken brutes were on Fifth
street on Friday night, as is evident from the
filthy condition of several door steps along
that thoroughfare on Saturday morning. It
would afford us extreme pleasure to publish
the names of these human hogs, but they
travel at such late hours that honest and re
spectable people are unable to learn who they
are.

On account of the great delay in the pay
ment of pensions at the Pittsburgh office,
petitions are being circulated in Altoona ask
ing for the dismissal of "Col." W. A. Herron,
the a•rent. We hear considerable complaint
from pensioners hi this place from the same
cause. There is one pensioner here—but he
shouldn't be on the rolls—who wore a pair of
soles off his shoes in running to the post
office after his last quarter's pension.
Our young friend, Gaius M. Brumbaugh,only

Our old friend, Mr. Adam Graber. of Porter
township, about four weeks ago was stung on
the back of one of his hands by a bee, and for
three weeks he was unable to use that member.
His hand was swollen to three times its natural
size, while the pain was most excruciating.—
For a week past he has been able to attend to
his farm work, but his hand is still sore and
tender. lie is a very clever old gentleman
and we were sorry to hear of his suffering.
A gang of masked robbers, over in Fulton
county, a few nights ago, went to the residence
of Jacob B. Hill, a farmer, and robbed him of
over $1,300 in silver and promisory notes.—
In order to make Mr. Hill tell them where his
treasure was they built a fire in the cook
stove and held him so close to it that parts of
his body were severely burned. They told
him they would burn him to death unless he
divulged the place where he kept his money,
which he finally did.
A lot of worthless dogs caught and killed
a twenty-four pound turkey ofJack M'Cahan's
on Friday last. The turkey was in one of his
fields when attacked by the dogs. All the
worthless curs in the county would not com

linaceous fowl. Jack is considerably out of
humor over his loss, and hereafter any dogs
caught prowling over his premises will be
sent to the bow-wows, where the major por

Our friend, Geo. T. Warfel, has been all
smiles and good humor since Saturday eve
ning, at which time his wife presented him
with a pair of fine, large, healthy twin babies,
a girl and a boy. Mr. Warfel is one of the
most ardent Greenbackers in the country, and
and his many friends congratulate him upon
these legal tender issues. Both mother and
babes are getting along finely, and their pa is
as proud of them as a young miss of her new

Aunt Kitty Kurtz, who has reached the ripe
old age of 93 years, walked to the Court House,
one day last week, and paid her tax with gold.
Sunday a week ago Aunt Kitty walked from
the residence of U. B. Lewis, esq., in the ex
treme eastern end of town to the M. E. church,
and was present at both the morning and
evening services. When starting she remarked
to some of Mr. Lewis' family that she ex
prcted that it was "the last time she would
attend church on this earth."
When is that business boom going to come
booming into this staid old town ? From
nearly every quarter cheering reports of a re
vival of trade, advance of prices and wages
reach us, but in Huntingdon business is as flat
as a flounder, and worst of all we see uo pros
pect of improvement. Unless the monied
men of the town start some manufacturing
enterpr;se the people of Huntingdon can sit
and count their fingers while their neighbors
are on the high road to prosperiey.
An interesting feature of the colored camp
meeting was a hand to hand encounter be
tween two frail sisters on their way home
from the camp ground on Sunday night. The
difficulty between them seemed to be some
thing about a ball recently held -at Mapleton,
and from words they proceeded to blows,
pitching into one another with a vim, and
making. the hair, lace and ruffles fly to such
an extent as to attract the attention of some
young men who were passing that way, and
who separated the belligerents in time to pre
vent a regular Kilkenny cat termination to
the contest. Moral : Parents, look after your
children.
The Lewistown Gazette of last week says
the largest bass yet caught about there this
fall was hooked on Thursday afternoon by
Daniel Kauffman in the deep water near the
watch-box below town. It measured 201 inch •
es in length, weighing 4 pounds and 6
ounces, and showed the tearing out of a hook
at the side of its mouth, proving that some
body else once had hold of it but lost it. On
Monday afternoon he caught the mate of the
above at the same spot, measuring 201 inches
in length and weighing 4 pounds and 8 ounces.
They were probably of the stock put in the
upper waters eight or ten years ago, as those
put in this part of the river would hardly at
tain that size.
We are indebted to Al. M. Row, esq., Sec
retary of the Clearfield County Agricultural
Society, for a complimentary ticket to the
13th annual exhibition of that organisation.
It promises to be a grand success, and the
officers are making every effort to make it
attractive. They offer premiums for every
product of farm and workshop, and in the
amusement line glass ball shooting and a five
hour walk, go as you please, will be prominent
features. Excursion tickets will be sold from
all points west of Huntingdon and east of
Altoona, on the Pennsylvania railroad, and
from all points on the Tyrone and Clearfield,
and Bald Eagle Valley roads and on the
Philipsburg and Moshannon branches. These
tickets will be sold ou o . !tober 13th, 14th,15th,
16th and 17th, and will be good for a return
trip until the 18th. Admission to the grounds
at Clearfield has been fixed at the low price
of 25 cents.
HousENtEN should read the advertise
ment in another column of Kendall's Spavin
Cure. A remedy which dues what this is
claimed to do (which many prominent horse
men have testified to) should be investigated,
for it is of great importance to every horse
owner. It seems to be winning for itself an
unprecedehted reputation by its merits.

within goviumutental functions ov"n upon the
broadest "let alot.e" princip'es. Government
has been defined as the power which does for
the people whit the people cannot do for
themselves. The fteetionsly ittelinei may lie
ready to admit that t4overnnient, throm2h its
represon.ati vi:ry ••(!‘,2.i the
people" and does nothing else. Nevertheless
the fact remains that the great function of
government is to carry our certain things,
conducive to the well being of all. which no
individual, or company of individuals could
accomplish. Among these things there is
none thnt touches so nearly the happiness and
welfare of the individual as the prevention of
the sale of adulterated Mod. The adulterated
articles that enter into common use have been
often exposed, and the public have sufficient
means, in a general way, of protecting itself
against them, by the knowledge which each
individual possesses of the articles purchased.
But we believe the fact is not generally known,
nor have the authorities been sufficiently alive
to the same, that the eommon candy shop is a
death-dealing establishineut of the most
irlSidllollti least suspected character.
Recent chemical analysis iif the ordinary
candy sold to children :Intl servant girls, in
the poorer districts, disclose the tact that the
coloring matter is a virulent poison and the
sand and fuller's earth are both lar4ely used
in the manufacture of the eommon sorts of
candies. The effects of this IL:is:mous color
ing matter,-and the sand and fitiler's earth arc
most disastrous. The death of many it darling
of the household may be traced to the use of
these deleterious substances. The sand and
fuller's earth clog up the it:testi:les and pro
duce inflammation of the bowels—often end
ing in CMIVIII , iOuS in th e very young
children. Tije fond or relative belies'
ing that he or site is preparitig a 'real treat"
for the dear little ones, in purchasing for them
this vile stuff. is in reality laving the founda
tions of lasting, mischief atiol perhaps death.
A %vise physician once said to us, , 11 . your
children want sweets, give them sagar, that
at least is harmless, and you know what it is."
One of the bust pieces of work which the
Board of health could do would be to appoint
an inspector to examine the methods and test
the materials of all candy-making establish

lives of our littie ones to cease.—Ex.
THE TEMPERANCE PE9PLE MOVING.—
The temperance people are preparing for a
campaign when the Legislature next meets
and already an act has been drawn up for
presentation. It is elaborate and limgthy but
the following are the main provisions :
The temperance law, on the acceptance of
which the people shall vote, specifies the
intoxicating liquors and mixtures forbidden ;
makes club-roon►s for drinking unlawful ;
graduates fines and in►prisonments to suc
cessive offenses ; instructs as to the drawing
of indictments ; provides that fines and costs
shall be liens on the property of convicted
persons ; makes the delivery of liquor from
any store, etc., prima facia evidence of sale;
specifies penalties for tha transportation of
liquors; states the circumstance in which a
husband, wife, child, parent or guardian may
bring snit ; provides that a drunken person
committing a breach of the peace, blasphem
ing, etc., shall be arrested and punished for
drunkeuuess, as for a crime; warrants a search
seizure and forfeiture or liquor in certain eir,
curostances; authorizes it Mayor or Burgess to
seize liquor sold in booths, huts, tents, etc.;
declares that prosecutions under this law
shall have precedence over all others, except
where persons are in jail awaiting trial; de
clares that liquor shall not be a consideration
for labor or property; authorizes the court, on
petition of fifty citizens, to appoint a special
officer to enforce this. law; states the manner
in which druggists may sell; makes provisions
for the needs of chemists and artists; author
izes. in certain cases, an agency to sell for
lawful purposes, and punishes the sales of all
adulterated liquors; to which details fifty sec
tions of the bill are devoted, all being pre.
sented in approved legal phrase.
The bill provides that one-fourth of the vo
ters in any district may petition the Court of
Quarter Sessions, three months before the
February election, to order a vote on the
Temperance law. The court shall then order
the proper officer to make proclamation of
said vote. The tickets shall be "For the Tem
perance Law" and "Against the Temperance
Law." All qualified voters and all women
over 21 years of age may vote. If a majority
are for it the clerk of the court shall publish
a notice that in ninety days the law will go

SOMETIIINti FOR ADVERTISERS TO
THINK ABOCT.—Some advertisers think that
because an advertisement which appears to
day is not followed to-morrow by an apprect.
able increase of sales the advertisement has
done no good and the theory of advertising is
false. Though it is perhaps impossible to in
sert a notice so small as not to be read (let
my Didywus put a three-line card, "Wanted
—A Dog," in the obscurest corner, and be
convinced of this) it is not to be expected
that the moment a person ctsts his eye upon
an advertiser's announcement he sets out for
the advertiser's store. He may not at the
time need any article in the merchant's line.
or he may deal with another house. But if
the representation is attractive 119 will almost
inevitably, whenever he needs anything of the
kind announced, turn to the paper where he
saw the card and give the advertiser a trial.
The merchant should regard his outlay for
advertising as be would that for painting his
building or putting up his signboard—as a
necessary charge upon the whole year 's busi
ness, the effect of which is not to be perceived
immediately. Men do not sow wheat ono day
and harvest it the next. The man who has
begun to advertise must keep on advertising
if he desires a continual increase in the vol
ume of business. He may keep a steady cli•
entele of satisfied customers, but the chances
are that some of these will be detached by
seeing the advantages of other dealers per
sistently advocated. He will certainly not
attract new patrons. They will go elsewhere,
just as they would seek another store than
his if, on coming to his door, they found it
locked and the shutters up.—Altoona Tribune.
STORE ROBBERY —Our attentive cor•
respondent "Bob" writes us that the store of
Mr. Kerr, in Shirleysburg, was broken open
on Monday morning, and a lot of clothing and
about one dollar in money stolen. An en
trance was effected by breaking open the back
door with tools stolen from the shop of Mr.
Reuben Myers, who is out a brace and Mitt
and a large chisel. About 2 o'clock ♦. M. Mr.
David Smith, who resides near the store, was
aroused by a noise, and getting up and going
to the window observed a man leaving the
store carrying a large bundle. A suspicious
character was observed about town on Satur
day, and many are of the opinion that he com
mitted the robbery. Parties started in pur
suit, but up to Monday evening found no traces
of the man they wanted. Some time during
Monday a suit of old clothes was found near
Vineyard Mills, which looks as if the robber
had changed his dress at this point. Mr. Geo.
Leas, the clerk in the store, estimates Mr.
Kerr's loss at about one hundred dollars.
I'. S. Since the above was put in type, we learn
that the thief has been apprehended in Harrisburg.
Mr. Kerr, who has a store in that city, recognized
his private cost mark on a number of articles found
in possession of the tramp. The thief gave his
name as Charles Boyle.
BURNED OUT.—The Fegar manufactory
of our townsman, Rev. Jesse R. Akers, at Cur
wensville, was totally destroyed by fire on the
morning of the 3d inst. Mr. Akers estimates
his loss at $2,000, $1,500 of which is covered
by insurance. A German segar maker has been
arrested and imprisoned on the charge of hav
ing fired the building. H is arrest was brought
about by his spending money at the saloons
in that town, when he was known to be out of
funds previously. We understand that he
passed a three cent piece at one of the saloons
which was recognized as having been left in
the till of Mr. Akers' establishment the eve
ning previous. It is supposed that be enter
ed the building for the puipose of robbery,
and iu his examination alter the plunder un
intentionally tired it. Other property was de
stroyed amounting in value to some $30,000.
A NEW COUNTERFEIT—LOOKOUT FOR
IT.—The Treasury Department furnishes the
following description of the new counterfeit
S 5 note on the National State Bank of Troy, N.
Y., of which $1,700 were found upon the per
son of Wm. Cluff when arrested by secret ser
vice officers in New York city Saturday eve
ning last. The counterfeit has the name of
John C. New, Treasurer, and a pointed seal,
the genuine note bearing the same name bas
a scallopped seal and iu the words "series of
1875" in colored ink which the counterfeit has
not. The old genuine issue of this bank which
has the pointed seal bears the name of F. E.
Spinner, Treasurer. In the counterfeit the
word treasury under the name of Allison is
spelled "treasury." The note is printed from
the skeleton plates sold by Henry C. Cole, be
fore his arrest, to New York parties. The
printing is much below the average of this
class of work.

NEW GOODS AT OLD PRICES !
J. R. Garmon, who spent two or three weeks
in New York and Philadelphia purchasing his
fall stock, is now busily engaged in opening,
marking and shelving the largest and most
complete assortment of goods ever brought to
Huntingdon county. His stock embraces Dry
Goods, Ladies' Coats, Dress Trimmings, No
tions, Boots, Shoes, flats. Caps, Groceries,
and a full and complete line of all kinds of
goods usually found in a first class store.
Having bought close, for cash, these goods
will be sold cheaper than any other house in
the county can afford to sell them. llis as
sertion is no idle boast, but a stern reality;
more goods, and better goods, for less money,
than any other house in the county. Go and
examine goods, hear prices, and be convinced
that CARtION'S is the place for bargains.

THE REASON WilY.—The tonic effect
of Kidney-Wort is produced by its cleansing
and purifying action ou the blood. Where
mere is a gravelly deposit in the urine, or
milky, ropy urine from disordered kidneys. it
cures without fail. Constipation and Piles
readily yield to its cathartic and healing
power.
FLANNELS! FLANNELS !—We have
just received enough flannel to
clothe everybody in Huntingdon
county, and we have marked them
down below everybody else. Come
and see them. HENRY & Co.
WIIY ARE You BILIOUS ? Because you
have allowed your bowels to become costive,
and liver torpid. Use Kidney-Wort to pro
duce a free state of the bowels, and it will
stimulate the liver to proper action, cleanses
the skin of its yellowness, cures bilious head
ache, and cciuses new life in the blood. Drug
gists have it.
WE TOLD You So.—We an
nounced last week that we were off
for new goods. And now they are
here. We have a fine assortment
of everything'. And cheap ! That's
no name fir it. Come over and see
them. HENRY & CO.
HUM PRICED BUTTER —Buyers pay
the highest price for "gilt-edged butter," but
want every tub to be of an even, bright color.
They recommend their patrons to use only
Wells, Richardson k Co.'s Perfected Butter
Color, as it is the most reliable known, and
will give a perfect color. It received the only
award at the International Dairy Fair for
"superior purity, strength, perfection of color
and permanence."
CARPETS.—We are receiving this
week a fine assortment of carpets
from the lowest priced hemp to the
best Body Brussel, and we have
made up our minds to undersell all
competitors. Come and see.

BOGUS CERTIEICATES.—It is DO vile
drugged stuff, pretending to be made of won
derful foreign roots, barks, &c., and puffed
up by long bogus certificates of pretended mi
raculous cures, but a simple, pure, effective
medicine, made of well known valuable reme
dies, that furnishes its own certificates by its
cures. We refer to flop Bitters, the purest
and best of medicines.—Ezehange. See an

for many years with 17..idney Complaint, Grav
el, &c.; my blood became thin, I was dull and
inactive ; could hardly crawl about, was an
old worn out man all over, could get nothing
to help me, until I got Hop Bitters, and now I
am a boy again. My blood and kidneys are
all right, and t am as active as amen of 30,
although I am 72, and I have no doubt it will
do as well for others of my age. It is worth
a trial.—(Father). 3-2 t.
