Summers' fish dam at Echo Glen, has been a "mint" to him thus far, as he has housed about one hundred tons of ice from it.

Hurry up, gentlemen. Mr. Ilehry Mans, who died a few days ago in Hollidaysburg in the G4th year of his age, never slept a night outside of hia own house since he was married, and was never in a rail road train but twice in his life—one of the occasions being when he went to Altoona in 1868 to attend a Democratic Mass Meeting.— The writer has often heard of him being in Altoona but he generally footed or drove the distance between his home and that city. U,► Saturday morning last at Mrs. Ilersey's boarding house in Altoona, three lamps, each holding about a quart of oil, exploded almost simultaneously, and a young lady named Min nie Cameron, who was carrying r•ne of them at the time, was severely burned by her clothes taking fire. Austin Shinner, the same day. employed in the passenger car shops, was badly burned by the explosion of a lamp fi led with alcholio:. The fluid was accidentally James It. Bumbaugh, a postal clerk on the P. R. It., was arrested and imprisoned, at Pittsburgh, on Monday night, for stealing money from the mails. When arrested $2O of marked money was found on his person, which had been mailed by the detective as a decoy. He has been in the service several years,aud his stealings will run up into the thousands. This seems to be a bad year for thieving postal clerks, for already some half-a-dozen of them have come to grief. Gobble them in Henry & Co.'s new mill was started on Wednesday afternoon, and we understand that all its parts workeJ as smoothly and as cor rectly as the machinery of a clock, something unusual in several years' experience of its builder.

During hia brief visit he dropped into the JOURNAL sanctum and received our autograph to a receipt for a year's subscrip tion to "the handsomest and best paper in the county." May his tribe increase. One of Bedford's smart young men went to Altoona a short time ago to see the sights, and in making his rounds got full of benzine and in this condition met a Tyrone friend, who in short order reiieved him of a check for a gold chain that had been sent by him to be re paired. The Tyroner went to the jt.welry store :aid presented the check and got the chain, and then cleared out with his stolen pri,neriy, tine nothing since has been heard of him, leaving the smart young Bedfordite to explain matters the best he knows how wheu he got Lome. His name was Joe Bowser, and lie hails from Bedford county. Three years ago he eras in the employ ofa farmer in Wayne county, Ohio. This farmer and a neighbor had a i. , rudge of lung-standing, and Bowser was in duced by his employer to set fire to his neigh bor's barn, and he done so. lle then returned to Bedford county where he has been ever since. For this little irregularity he is now in the clutches of the Ohio law, having been brought front Bedford to this place on Friday night, and remained at the Miller House un til Saturday morning when he was taken on to Ohio. The fellows ‘‘.'io get the farmers to sign notes under Vari6ll3 fraudulent pretences, are using the census for their swindling opera tions. A feilow drives up with blanks for statistics or the farm, having between the ta- Lks and the foot of the page where the farmer signs his name a blank space which is ac counted for as affording room for miscellaneous information. In a month or more the farmer receives notice from a neighboring bank that his note for $l5O is due. He Luows nothing of the note, but investigation shows that the "census-taker" !ins filled in the blank with a Komi:-e to pay, which being now in the hand of an innocent hoßkr, must be paid by the unlucky dupe.

Lew i Browning, e: r;., ofSouthnuipton . town ship, and one of the Commissioners of Bedford county, dropped dead last Wednesday, having ruptured a blood vessel near the heart. There was an assemblage of the citizens at one of the school houses in the township at the in stance of the school directors to decide a difficulty between a school teacher named Frank Nans, who had thrown up his school, and several of his pupils, and whilst this was going on a fight was commenced between the teacher and three of his scholars, and Mr. Browning attempted to part them. After the trouble had subsided Mr. Browning fell dead. The rupture was evidently caused by excite ment, fur Dr. Emig,h, the attending physician, made an examination and gave it as his opinion that the deceased bad ruptured a blood vessel near the heart. Mr. Browning was serving his second term as Commissioner, having been elected by the Itepublicans in 1875 and re elected in 1878, and as the Court has the power to appoint his successor, the new mem ber of the Board will be of the same political party. His successor has not been named yet. ELIZABETH FURNACE FIRED UP.— Mr. John Whitehead, of Huntingdon, proprie tor of Elizabeth furnace, arrived at the furnace this morning, accompained by his daughter. The furnace, which bas been out of blast since the panic of 1873, has been in a large degree rebuilt and its capacity enlarged. The old furnace was seven feet wide iu the "boshes." It is now ten feet. Its former capacity was rated from thirty to thirty-five tons per week; its present capacity is rated at seventy five to eighty tons per week, and it will give employ meut to over one hundred hands. The furnace was to be fired up to day, Miss Whitehead, the daughter of the proprietor, to apply the match, and we doubt not that ere this the flames and smoke are issuing from its stack, reminding the residents of the valley that the dull times are surely at an end. Mr. Joseph Pershing, of Antietam, Md., will he the general manager. He is an experienced man in the basiness.—Altoona Sun of Monday. From Tuesday's Sun we clip the following additional information : As was expected, Elizabeth furnace was fired up yesterday afternoon. li*.le Bea Whitehead, the (laughter of the proprietor, applying the match, and everything is now in running order. The f.'rnace has been chant ed from a charcoal to a coke furnace, and as staled yesterday the production will be abwit eighty tons of iron per week. A steam washer has been erected at the ore bank, about a mile and a half from the furnace, which has a capacity of twenty tens per day, and a tram— way about nine thousand feet in length has been built between the furnace and the washer over which the ore will be conveyed to the furnace. There is about three months stocl: on hand. Mr. Joseph Purser, of Cumberland, Md., is the foundryman. Mr. Whitehead visits the furnace every morning and remains all day. A store for the accommodation at the workmen and the people of the vicinity has been established, and is under the management of Mr. J. Wilson Allen, of Saltillo, Huntingdon county, who has been engaged in mercantile pursuits since childhood and is a thorough and capable manager. This enter prise of Mr. Whitehead is a boon to the people of Elizabeth, and they will no doubt appreci ate the advantages it gives them. Tali MURDERER ALBRIGHT ONCE Mona.—Our readers will remember the cir cumstance of the murdering of a young man named Miller, of Harrisburg, at Newport, Perry county, ast summer, by Sam Albright, and the subsequent finding of a decomposed body, in Girty's cave, which the parents of the murderer swore was that of their son. The people of that community, who knew Albright intimately, were about equally divided in their opinion as to the dead body found being that of the murderer. Those who would not believe it to be him asserted that the friends of Albright bad procured a dead body dressed it in Sam's garments, and placed it where it was found fur the purpose of deceiving the officers of the law. thinking that they would desist in their efforts to capture him. The latest news concerning this cast goes to sub stantiate the belief of the doubters. The Har risburg Patriot, of IVednesday of last week, says, .'after many days the murderer Al bright turns up out iu Colorado. As there is guile a large reward for the capture of Al bright we can give the detectives a clue that might possibly result in the capture of the murderer. Mr. James Wright, who formerly kept the Cross Keys Hotel at Rockville, for over a year past has been residing at Lead ville, doing business there and in its vicinity. He returned to this vicinity a Short time ago, and we believe intends shortly to revisit Lead ville and permanently locate. In conversa tion with a prominent citizen of Susquehanna township, Mr. Wright stated that being a fir mer resident of Perry county he knew Al bright well, but had not heard of the murder committed by him until recently. That some time ago he saw Albright at work .iu the mi ning district at Leadville, but before he got a chauce to speak to the fugitive the later 'made himself scarce.' Mr. Wright did not know of the mArder at the time, and.thoughtit strange that Albright should shun him, as both were old acquaintances. Mr. Wright declares that the person he saw was none other than Al bright, and thinks that if an effort was made the fugitive could be captured." It will be remembered that some time after the murder, and subsequent to the all.. Ted finding of his body, a man who was working in a stone quarry, near Williamsport, made affi davit that he saw Albright at the quarry in search of work. This story of 11r. Wright's goes to confirm the statement of the William kiort quarryman, and it looks as ifiAlbright was still iu the land of the living. SOLD LIN WIFE —The following story may or may not be true, but it js furnished to an Altoona paper as a fact. The statement is that a man whose name was not learned, in company with the wile of another man, whose name is also unknown, eloped from Osceola, Clearfield county, to Philipsburg, Centre county, last Sunday. The husband of the false fair one had a warrant issued, and a pursuit was orzanized, which resulted in the capture of the guilty pair after they had retired in a Philipsburg hotel. They were taken to Osceola, and a justice placed them under $3OO bail each to appear at Court. About this time a number of Frenchmen from Houtzdale—the man who ran away with the woman being a Frenchman—appeared on the scene, and the result of their endeavors was that the injured husband closed a bargain with his wife's frieud by which he sold her to the latter for $l5O, and the money was paid over. The pair then departed, and it was a question which were the happiest, the lovers or the deceived husband. ANSWER THIS —Did yo t ever know any person to be ill, without inaction of the Stomach, Liver or Kidneys, or did you ever know one who was well when either was obstructed or inactive ; and did you ever kuow or hear of any case of the kind that Bop Bit tern would not cure ?—Ask your neighbor this same question.

Ore digging at Matilda Furnace is brisk at preset t. Quite a number of miuers are c::;- ployed. Mr. Frank Ihritn, who lea this pi ace snirw time• ago., has moved back. He now 'thatigs up" on Market street. There will be a :;eneral ‘rear sprint in this place. Everybody their relations" talk about moving. Houses in Mt. Union are about all rented fur the coining year, and indeed the demand seems to be greater than the sui,pl;:. There is not an °ince of ice stored away yet in this place. The delicacy will be dear and scarce the coming season from the pres ent outlook. We understand that our schools are ail in first class condition. We have all good teach ers and this accounts for the schools getting along so well. We noticed W. 11. Woods, ciao., of your town, on our streets on 6aturday last, looking after his tenant houses. Ile owns nearly all the lower end of Water street, besides some properties elsewhere in town. The concert in the U. B. church recently, by the Kesler sisters, of Ohio, was a grand success. Everybody seemed to be pleased. The proceeds went towards payin,g• for the organ recently purchased by that church. John La France, one of our former citizens here, who has been away for a year or two— we can't tell where—returned a short time ago and is again engaged in cabinet making lOr "Boss" Summers. John is a good workman, and we are glad to see his smiting face again. We hear from good authority that a cigar manufactory will be inaugurated in this place the corning spring. The gentleman conies from Altoona. His business place will be in Jacob Flasher's store room on Water street. We wish' the new enterprise abundantsucces?. We understand that Mr. Henry !limes, who has been foreman of the P. R. R. at this place for a number of years, has resigned that posi tion. He has kept the track up better than a great many others ou the Middle Division, and the company will miss Min. What he will engage in we are unable to say. Mr. Daniel Summey, a cabinet maker and carpenter by trade, has commenced operatluns in the shop above E. I'. McKettrick's black smith shop. He is at present engaged in ma king a paper cutter for the Times office. We welcome him in our midst, as be is a very pleasant and agreeable vutleman. There was a string band organized in this place on Thursday evening. They met in the Times office. The following is a list of the members so far : Messrs. R. M. Harrison, Thos. Mills, Daniel Summers, fri L. Bare, I.exing ton Davis, George Fee and Newton Flasher. We hope the new enterprise may meet with success. A Good story is told on a certain witness in the riot case. It appears that he was not well acquainted in Huntingdon, and being late at night when he was ready to retire, could not find his hotel, but mistook a certain gentle— man's house for the same. Suffice it to say ha didn't get in at that house. Another man boasts that Le boarded at the Methodist Fes tival and always went to the Leister house to pick his teeth. KEEPING CHILDREN AFTER SCHOOL lionas.—A flint or Two to Teachers.—The journal from which we clip the:following mat ter has a "level heltd," and as we agree with it in every particular on the subject, we give it room in our columns. Thoughtful teachers throughout our county are advised to peruse it carefully, and to practice its precepts : "Thete is one common practice of the pub lic schools which ought to be abolished at once and everywhere without question or parley. That is the practice of imprisoning the children in the school houses beyond the school hours. Pretty nearly every school house in the land is thus turned into a peni tentiary in which children are immured every day, some of them for imperfect recitations, others for faults of deportment. This method of punishment might, if the teachers were all judicioLs, be resorted to occasionally with good effect ; but teachers are not all judicious, and thousands of children are thus detained every day to whom the detention is a serious injiiry, and a grave injustice. For some trifling breach of disorder like turning a seat or dropping a pencil, for some small failure in a recitation, and often for no fault at all— the children are shut up in the school houses, sometimes during the interwission,otten alter the close of school. Thousands of children in delicate health, to whom the regular school hours are too long, are permanently injured by this system of confinement. if only the stupid and willful and those in sturdy health.were thus punished there would be less reason of complaint ; but any careful investigation will show that such discrimination is not generally made, and from the nature of the system, cannot well be made : and that the injury to the health of pupils resulting from the practice more than outweighs any good that may result from it." LEAP YEAR LAW —As leap year is here it is well to know what the law of leap year is. The law, it is said, takes no notice of parts of days, and as to the 29th of February it takes no notice of the whole day. The 28th and 29th are computed as one day. For example : Suppose a note is dated on the 28th of February, 1880, payable oneday from date. Ordinarily it would be payable on the 4th of March, and so it is in leap year, and not on the 3d. In Indiana the question has recently come before the Supreme Court, in respect to the service of process in 1876, the last leap year. The law there requires ten days' previ ous service for the entry ofjudgmeut. In the case before the court the judgcent was pre mature if the 28th and 29th of February were to he computed as one day. The court said : "It must be regarded as settled in this State that the 28th and 29th days of February in every bisextile year must be computed and considered in law as one day. The question is set at rest by our statute, I. R. S., m. p. 610, a. 3, which provides that the lidded day of leap year and the year immediately pre ceding, if they shall occur in any period so to be computed, shall be reckoned together as one day. This embraces statutes, deeds, verbal or written contracts, and all public or private interests.''—Albany Law Journal. USING A ONE CENT STAMP —A great many people are erroneously of the opinion that a letter in au unsealed envelope can be sent through the mails for a one cent stamp. When such letters inadvertently pass through the mailing office they are rated up double at the office of destination and the person ad dressed is compelled to pay five cents before he can obtain the letter. Receipts for money paid, whether signed by a written or printed name, are always subject to letter rates, whether in a sealed or unsealed envelope. Bills for merchandise purchased and state ments of accounts, wholly in writing, are subject to letter rates, but if partly printed and partly written, they can he sent in an unsealed envelope for a cent. However, the sender must be careful to write no additional matter, such as "please remit," "account overdue"' "will send balance of order in a few days," etc., because any such addition is correspondence of a persJnal nature and subjects the party receiving the same to a rating up on the letter. A little attention to these points will save annoyance to senders and addressers of this class of matter.—Tri bane. SELLING LIQUORS BY THE BOTTLE. Judge Juuktn, of Perry county, at a recent term of the county court at New Bloomfield, cautioned inc keepers about the peril of selling liquor by the bottle over their bars. He admonished landlords that they had no right to sell a bottleful of liquor to &sober man who would transfer it to one in the habit of becoming intoxicated, or to minors, and he was bound, as much as a druggist who dis penned poison at the call of a customer, to know who was to use the liquor. The pur chase of a quart of whisky by a sober man was in itself a suspicious. circumstance, and raised the fair inference that it was being bought fur some one to whom the landlord would not sell it. And he added that proof ofits transfer to and use by drunkards and minors was sufficient cause for revoking the inn— keeper's license. AGAIN VICTORIOUS.—At the Ititerna tional Dairy Fair, held in New York, Decem— ber 1879, a committee of the most expert but. ter makers made the most careful tests of all the different Butter Colors. The result was the unanimous award of the only prize to Wells, Richardson & Co.'s Perfected Butter Color. Again this original and perfect color scores a victory as it always does when there is honest and fair competition with any of its competitors. Sold by Druggists and Merchants. Take no other. USE DR.

EDirC3A creirnieal record of this county during the last court furnishes a sad ltemily on the state of public morals, as well as a subject for serious consideration on the part of the taxpayers of the county, the order loving portion of the community, and all who are concerted r: pe , ce of seeiety, the ee eerily of life eial property ntei the 4 -er.eral public e elf:ire. About one ha'l of tee first week of weal was occupied with the trial oftete "It. Union riotets, resulting in the conviction of the offenders, at an expense to the county of little short of li:e2,000, and their imprison tneeit or r;, ety cloys each at the still further cast to the county of hundreds of dollars. Truly we are paying a terrible price fur ignorance and crime! lint this is only the oft-tuld story, and rue which grows more familiar every day. and will so long as lawleszness and ceinte continue to be on the increase, and the struggle between the lawless ate' late-abiding portions of the community eontieues to grow, es it seems to be growing, more holatiess on the part of the latter. Nu one who has ever visited the railroad depot at Mt. Union could he ve failed to notice the shameless eniiibitions of incipient OWdyiSM soul jevenite depravity there witnessed, and of which the disgraceful scenes of last Chris mas were hut the legitiatate outgrowth. This condition of affairs seems to be geowingas the popetee:on ()four villages awl towns increases, till it is now almost impossible for an public day or public occasion to !lass without the aseemltliag of crowds of ruPiens, rendered lawless and turbulent its the use of inluxica tieg drinks, and the cletsequent disgraceful exhibitioes of blackgnardism and brutality. Who is to It:erne ? Surely this condition of affairs is traceable to some cause. The fact revealed on the trial, of the two or three pint bottles of whisky in the hands of the young men who participated in the disgraceful riot at Nit. Union, tells the tale, and accounts laige ly, if not ea Li y, for tut: cause of the out break; but beyond this is it not more -.emote ly traceable to oater c uses, such as inherent deviltry, bad hone traiuiog, aed want of pa rental restraint, (he last named of wii:ch has become an et it so foretidab'e as to th ea en the destruction Cour civil institutions. This is the primary cause of nine-tenths of all the misery end crime that nuts exists in society. The throne of parental authority is abdicated; our bows are allowed to graduate on the streets after nightfall fur the penitentiary or the gal lows, and the sad consequences are visible in the crowds of drunken men and boys which blockade the sidea alks of our towns, insulting deceit people with their profanity and inde cent behavior till in twiny cases it is scarcely sate for ladies to venture outside of their homes in the evening. So long as such scenes are tolerated society is not safe. I have list ened to those waguilicent, spread eagle, Fourth ofJuly orations, where the foundations of our institutions ace spoken of as resting on the solid rock, and I have said to myself, it is not so. The old Brahmin theory of the earth rest leg on four elephants, which in turn rest each on a huge tortoise, is just as plausible, so long as there is beneath the bottom of society this slimy, shifting, treacherous, deceitful mass. There is in the pains-talong detail of domestic discipline and lust! eet , on a certain effect that can never be secured by any other agency, and when home authority and hone restraint are once abandoned there is co amitted the most fatal of all mistakes. Abraham was core • mended in that' he ruled his household, while the mournful sequel to the sad history of Eli and his family is told in the brief sentence, "his sons made themselves vile and he re strained them not." This impatience of pr rental control, and want of parental restrain., this inherent disposition of the human heart to rebel against all constitutedanthority, is the first step in a career of crime. We have seen its tearful effects within the last few years, in the ascendency of mob law, the defiance of the constituted authorities of the country ; in the red flag of communism boldly unfurled, and the wholesale destruction of life and prop erty by the hand of the assassin and the torch of the incendiary, and within our midst to.dav is an element which needs but to be fanned and encouraged to burst forth in a torrent of destruction which human hand would be powerless to control. While sojourning re cently in one of the cities of this State, I fre quently ou Sabbath mornings visited the pris on, where a number of Christian men and women were in the habit of assembling for the purpose of holding religious services, and how often, as I listened to the pathetic and touching meliuly, "Where is . my wandering boy to night," have I thought that a little ju dicious parental restraint, kindly, yet firmly admiuistered, a little more of the saving in fluenee of a well regulated home and fireside circle, might have saved that "wandering boy" anti made hint a valuable member of so ciety, instead of an outcast and a vagabond, to be sought within the gloomy walls of the prison cell. Primarily then, the cause of this state of lawlessness and crime originates in the want of parental control and discipline, and on the parent who thus criminally neglects the duty which he owes to his offspring, and to society, rests a most fearful responsibility; but to wards the suppression of this growing evil it becomes the duty of every good citizen to exert his utmost influence, and in so doing to come up to the full measure of citizenship in the exercise of that authority vested in him by a government which is "of the people, by the people and for the people." tinting now glanced at the primary cause, I propose in a future communication to notice a few other causes which operate to augment the evil, and finally to smuggest some of the remedies by which this growing spirit of deviltry may be effectually held in cheek, and if not entirely suppressed, at least rendered comparatively harmless,—remedies which I conceive to be in easy reach and available at any time, if our citizens will but do their duty. ;.iQUISTY NIP..

These pleasant places in the life of the minister encourage his heart and lead him to renewed diligence in his Master's work. They show him that his services are appreci ated by his people, and that they are willing and ready to share these temporal blessings with him who points them to the fiuntain of all spiritual blessings and mercies. Last week, in spite of the rain which fell all day, and the mud, which rendered the roads almost im passable, two teams drove up and unloaded their contents at our door, and the brethren remarked "there is yet more to come," but it did not reach us that day, yet we feel assured that it will come yet. These kind remem brances, though they may seem small on the part of the donors, to the minister, with a small salary, are a great help. Our earn est prayer is thati these kind people may re alize the truth of God's word, viz. "That it is m6re blessed to give than to receive. P. S. In this connection permit me also to express my gratitude to the young ladies of .llcConnellstown, through whose efforts a bot of groceries was presented to ►ne as a Christ mas offering, and also to all others who kindly remembered us on that occasion.
