The cut worms' ravages in some parts of Mifflin county arc so great that some of the tirtners have been compelled to replant their corn twice. The performance of the Cantata of Laila Saturday night was for the benefit of the Hun tingdon Cornet Band, and it proved a good thing for it. Our clever friend, W. J.

And the 4th of July will be duly cele brated on the 33, by a grand hop at Cottage Grove. We hope the lads and lassies will have a "bulging' time. If it had been generally known that General Garfield was to pass through Huntingdon last Saturday afternoon there would have been a regular jam :at the depot. The pay car of the Central Road went through this place one day last week, making glad the hearts of the railroad employes, and likewise the store keeper. The Marks murder case has keen patponed until theSeptemberTerin of the Indiana county Court, as neither party were ready to go on with the case at this session. B.

The borough cows have forsaken the tough grass on the pavements for the tender shoots on the hillsides. They will, however, return to their old stamping grounds when the early cabbage is ripe. We have heard of no big bass catch. Our Isaak Waltons are slow, but then the waters were too muddy. They'll make good reports when they get their band in if they do lie— under a mistake. According to the report of the enumerator for the Second Ward of this borough. as riled in the Prothonotary's office, that precinct has seventy-two Chinese within its borders. This is certainly news. Rev. Hinkle's theme, Sunday evening wis, "For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God." During his discourse the political parties received well merited raps over the knuckles.

Miss M. E. MulAcnburg, accompanied by Mr. J. H. Fitzpatrick, who were here with White & Furree's troupe, are giving readings in the small towns of the State. This looks as if the troupe has "gone where the woodbine twineth." On Tuesday afternoon a rumor was current that President Hayes had died suddenly in Alliance, Ohio, during the morning. Upon telegraphing to Pittsburgh for information the welcome news came that the rumor was groundless. By the change of time, which took effect on Monday last, on the Huntingdon 'and Broad Top railroad, the Mail Train south leaves the Union depot at 6:35 r. nt. instead of 7:25 r. at.

The pronounced opinion of the ablest phy sicians all over the country indicates that Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup is the best remedy for all the sufferings of little children caused by Wind Colic, Dysentery, Diarrhea or Summer Complaint. Price 25 cents. We understand that a gang of rowdies who vegetate in this place assaulted a couple of strangers on one of the back streets at a late hour on Saturday night. The proper thing for the strangers to have done would have been to put a ball or two into one or more of them: The Newton Camp authorities have aban doned the restaurant building at the entrance to the grounds. It has been given to the Pennsylvania railroad company, who will him it into a waiting room and ticket office. This will be a decided improvement over former years. The time of the year has come when com mittees of agricultural societies are hunting around for lawyers and preachers to tell the farmers how to till the ground and raise stock. We hare several that we can spar;.) from our town, for a season—juit long enough to fatten them up.

While the Borough Dads aro lio ki g after ihe pavements in West Huntingdon, we think it would not be amiss to see that the ones in the old part of town be attended to. Some of them are man traps, whilst others are like hills and valleys. "What is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander." We heard a farmer say the other day that the wheat harvest will be nearly over before the grass crop is cut, owing to the singular state of the weather for some time past, which has blighted it. There is little, if any cut, up to this time. Wheat looks well in all parts of the county, and the average yield is now very promising. Philipsburg Journal: Miss Lillian Ashman, after having spent several months in this place attending the private school of Dr. Clerc, has returned to her home at Three Springs, Huntingdon county. Miss Ashman, by her pleasing manner, made many friends during tier stay in Philipsburg, all of whom will re gret her departure from our midst. English sparrows, by the hundreds, and may be thousands, have pounced down on a field of wheat on the farm of Jack McCahan, opposite this place, and have proven them selves very destructive. They alight on the head, bear down the stalk to the ground, and sit and till their crops at their leisure. In a few years farmers will have to inaugurate a war of extermination against these pesky little fellows. There will be held in the Lutheran church, on the evening of Sunday the 2ith inst., a Missionary Sunday school meeting and Cen tenary Anniversary, to consist of songs ap propriate for the occasion, and addresses by the Pastor, Superintendent of the school and Mr. 3.

As a young man was escorting a young lady home from the Vigilant festival, Altoona., at u►idnigat, Tuesday, he was assa-':ed by two ruffians, who knocked him down. While one of them attended to him, the other seized the girl and dragged her into an alley. llere she was threatened with death if she did not de sist from her outcries, which were loud enough to tiring her rescuers in time to save her from the hellish designs of the scoundrel. No arrests were made'. Geo. A. Port, csq., has ordered an engine to be used in his slaughtering establishment in running his cutters for the manufacture of bologna and other sausage. His business has increased to such an extent" that lie finds it impossible to supply his trade without the aid of steam power. Mr. Port has the neces sary amount of "push" in his composition to make his business go, and we are pleased to know that his trade has grown in magnitude beyond his most sanguine expectations. A young colored damsel, with a pair of lungs that would be the envy of a Comanche chief, raised a racket in the vicinity of the Methodist Church, about half-past ten o'clock on Sunday evening. She was about to be chastised for "gathering dandelion by moonlight," but at the first blow she broke away and ran to the garden, where she threw herself upon the ground and yelled as if possessed of forty dev ils. She should have been raised by the aid of a heavy raw-hide vigorously applied to her bare back. Last Thursday the first Commencement of the Huntingdon High School was held, and was largely attended by our people. The pu pils acquitted themselves handsomely, and gave evidence of careful training and advance ment in their several studies. Prof. J. I. White, the principal, presented Masters Win. Williamson and Charles McCallan with diplo mas. K. Allen Lovell,one of the School Board, delivered a timely address to the pupils.— Thus passes the first Commencement ; the be ginning, we hope, of larger and more interest ing ones. On Friday a week ago, a Swedish family, consisting of father, mother and five children, were obliged to leave the emigrant train at this point, owing to the illness of the wife and mother. Accommodations were given them hi the old Pennsylvania railroad depot build ing, and the patient placed under the medical treatment of a competent physician. The ailment was caused by sea-sickness, and the disease terminated in brain fever, of which she died on Thursday noon last. tier remains were interred in the cemetery ou Friday.— Those of our citizens who knew of the case gave them true help m their dire need. The tither with his children, some of whom are pretty well grown up, started for their new western home after the funeral. A Huntingdon woman created a sensation at the Eagle Hotel, Tyrone, on Sunday last, by taking a fit. She and a gentleman put up at the hotel the evening before, registering as Sands and wife, and everything went as merry as a marriage bell, until Sunday evening, when Sands appeared at the office of the hotel and requested the clerk to send for a physician as quick as possible as his companion had taken sick. The woman'hails from our town, and the man claims to be an attachee of Welsh Sands' circus, and during their stay in Tyrone kept their room very close. Of course she only went to Tyrone to see her loving hus band(?), as the correspondent from that town says, judging from all appearances, that they are man and wife(?). A guess or two by our people will tell who she was. PERS ONAL MENTION —We are is re ceipt of a copy of the Buffalo County Journal, 6f the loth inst., published at Alma, Wiscon sin, from which we excerpt the following notice of our friend, Dr. Henry Orlady, of Petersburg, acd his real estate enterprises in that section : We received a pleasant call last Friday from Dr. Henry Orlady, cf Pennsylvania, who is quite heavily interested in real estate in the towns of Nelson and Canton, in this county, and each spring comes west to look after the grangers who are tilling them. We aro in formed that his crops are looking fine and promise an abundant harvest. He has in the two towns above mentioned the following number of acres of grain : wheat 238 ; oats 123 ; corn 115 ; and acres of Egyptian rice corn. The rice corn is a new variety for the west and was first introduced into this coun try by a few farmers residing in Kansas, who obtained the seed at the centennial at Phila delphia, in 1876. It was not affected by the drought that destroyed all vegetation in Ford and a few other counties in Kansas. The yield was about 100 bushels to the acre. The A ricultural Report from Washington speaks of it as likely to become a cereal of great value in many parts of the west. While grow lug it looks much like sorghum. The seed forms at the top of the stalk in large bunches and gets heavier, bends down not unlike a cluster of grapes. One bushel of the seed is sufficient for fifteen acres. In harvesting the heads only are gathered. A threshinc , ma chine will clean ready for market 2,ooo"bush els a day. It weighs about 60 pounds to the RESTORATION OF SIGHT.—One week ago Dr. W. F. Fundenberg, of Cumberland, Md., operated upon Capt. Samuel. Kimmel!, aged 76 years, of Jenner township, this county, for the removal of a cataract from his left eye, the sight of which had been lost for over five years. The delicate operation was performed with that skill and care only acquired by years of practice and study. To-day we are pleased to say that the sight has been en tirely restored. The delight of this aged gentleman in again being able to see after so many years of darkness may easily be imagined. A few weeks ago we made note of a similar operation by Dr. F. upon Miss Murphy, aged 73. We again take pleasure in recording another successful termination of the most delicate operation known in modern surgery. —Somcraet Democrat. HUNTINGDON'S POPULATION —Daring the last decade the population of Huntingdon has increased about thirty six per cent. The last census made the population of the town three thousand and thirty-four, and the pres ent census, according to unofficial figures, will foot up four thousand, one hundred and twenty-three. This is a good showing for our staid old town, when we remember that we have no manufacturing establishsoents in op eration to induce strangers to come here, and our increase will compare favorably with towns of greater pretensions. RACE HORSE RUINED.—FOUZO 7 a prom isirg race horse, for which his owner refused $3,500, was ruined recently by a negro groom who broke the horse's jaw with a club. Ken dall's Spavin Cure is the most valuable remedy ever known for every kind of an injury, bruise, cut or sore, as well as for any kind of lame ness on beast or man. It is truly wonderful what success everybody has with it. Read the advertisement fur Kendall's Spavin Cure in another column. Mrai,Eit iiour4DALE.—llon. G. Fisher, tt; firm of Fishers & Miller, received a on Monday, from Houtz dale, informing it,in that two Swedes, who had been employed in their mines, at that place, had been murilered on the Saturday night previous. 'fine ;e:egram to Mr. Fisher gave the fact of the kil , ing tut uo particulars eoncernin : , it. A c toTespontlent from that town furnishes the Alto let Tri'June with the following details it tic brutal killing : A murder was cmatnitted in th,! outskirts of the to w n o n s;:t!tr.i.ty night that for brutali ty is seldom equalt,l. Two Swedes were enticed into a house of.ill-fame by several of ' the striking miners. and alter persuading inc, of the Swedes, who had a revolver with him, to discharge all the ivaas out of it, they got a row and deliberately shot both the Swedes, killing one :Ind wounding the other very badly, but he will likely recover. The Swede that was killed was kicked about after he was dead worse than a dog. The other one succeeded in making his escape to the woods, and after wandering around all night, presented himself to the mine ho had been working at in a very exhausted condition. One was shot in the back, the ball going through his lung and lodging against the heart. The other was shot through the left lung near the heart. Two young men named Evans and Hill hare been arrested and taken to the Clearfield jail, Evans for doing the shooting and Hill Lr robbing the victim after his death. Such a dastardly crime deserves the severest punishment, itiad no doubt the perpetrators of it will get their just deserts. The wounded Swede recognized Evans as the one who did the shooting. Another correspondent of the same paper writes this : On Saturday night., at Houtzdale, George Evans shot and killed a swede by the name of liakenson. Evans and a man by the name of Jones asked the Swedes to go with them up to a place where there were some girls. On arriving at the house and knocking they did not get in. They then started to return, and when in the woods below the house, Evans get one of the Swedes to discharge his re volver, and after the revolver was empty they had some word:, and Evans then shot and killed Ilakenson, and Dirgstrom received a ball under the left arm, penetrating the lung, but he managed to run away, and after wan dering around all night in the woods was found the next morning, and gave a descrip tion of the two men that were in their com pany. Upon title dh ion Captain Thomas E. Clark arrested Evans, who gave the name of the other man who was with him, and eon fesed to the shooting of the Swedes. Jones says that after the shooting he and two men by the names of George Dili and John Higgins robbed the dead man, taking his pocket-book with $12.14 in it. Captain C!ark. then arrested both Higgins and Iliil, and found the money on Bill, the same as described by Evans. The men have been lodged in the Clearfield jail. The dead man MIA tbund about 11 o'clock on Saturday night lying in the glitter by the roadside by one David Densil, a farmer. The ball that killed Dakenson entered the back just below the shoulder blade, going through the lung and lodged in the heart and was extracted by Dr. Ferd. Todd, of Houtzdale. The Coroner's inquest was held yesterday and the verdict was that Bakenson came to his death by a pistol ball shot from a pistol in the hands of George Evans. George Evans is a young man of 21 years, with a very bad record. All are miners and the Swedes are the men who came here during the strike, and took the places of the strikers, and which no doubt, is the real cause of the murder. At this writing Birgstrom, the other Swede is still living, but the doctor says he cannot recover. WAS IT AN ELOPEMENT ?—Cheney and his Red-haired Duleina,aged Thirty fire summers, "Scooped In" at Altoona.—Friday afternoon a telegriiphic dispatch was wired from this place to Chief of Police Powell, of Altoona, by P. M. Lytle, esq., to arrest one "Levi Cheney and a red-haired woman on first. sec tion of way passenger train ; man short and woman tall." The Altoona authorities were duly on hand on the arrival of the train, and the party were at once arrested, and after the dammil had been permitted to don her No. 7 shoes, she being in her stocking feet, the brace were escorted to the station house to await the arrival of the lawyer in the evening. The charge preferred against the couple was bigamy, and eloping with .mother's man's wife." In due time Mr. Lytle, accompanied by a friend, appeared, and was accorded a private interview with Cheney, Mr. Lytle desiring nothing to do with the woman. In a short time the matter was adjusted by the accused paying the costs and counsel fees, i.nd the pair liher,tte,l, when they went on their way toward.; satiset. Cheney is a resident of Coaldale, Bedford county, and is the same man arrested here sonic three months ago, on the cliarge of eloping with another man's wife from Coal dale. Ile was sent back, but somehow the matter was settled. At Altoona, Cheney claimed that be was a coal miner by occupa tion and is a single man. The woman boldly asseverated that she is single, was never mar ried in her life, and that she was keeping house for a miner whom she thinks is the cause of her present trouble. She was dressed in a full linen suit, and after her lover was locked in one of the station house cells was permitted to stand in the corridor of the prison and talk to him through the bars, a position she steadily maintained for several hours. She stated further that site was on a visit to her sister, who lives in Pittshurgh, and that her lover had kindly volunteered to accompany her and pay all expenses on the outgoing and incoming trip. This statement, however, is belied by the fact that their tickets were purchased at Huntingdon for Joh nstawr. It seems that Cheney had some $lOO about his clothes, as Mr. Lytle was heard to re mark : "Cheney, you've got over five hundred dollars about you, and if you return to Hun tingdon it will cost you more. I've got all out of you I want, and you can go where you please now. Go and get married end live happy, but don't do anything wrong." This must be trite as he was glad to part with some of it to escape further trouble. The presump tion is that the brace had left parties behind. They are old enough to have known better. GRADUATION OF J. A. COLEMAN CLAaxsox.—The other day the Altoona High School held its Commencement, and among its graduates in the class of 'BO, was J. A. Coleman Clarkson, youngest son of our old friend Judge Clarkson, of Cassville, this county. From the published reports of the affair, we learn that lir. Clarkson was ap pointed to deliver the valedictory address, as he had won the proud distinction of having achieved the most complete success in studies, and that his oration, "Earth's Battlefields," was a fine effort, and the press of that city pass the highest encomiums in the manner in which be acquitted himself. The Tribune says he may congratulate himself on his sue ceais as he carried off the honors in a class which ranks exceptionally high. We hope his future may grow brighter. --nib-- WILBUR F. CUN NINO RAM ACCIDE4TAL YL SHUT AT LEADVILLE.—OU Monday afternoon last ex-Sheriff G. W. Johnston, of this place received a dispatch from W. K. Burchiaell, of Leadville, Colorado, stating that Wilbur F. CLnningham, a former resident of our town, had been accidently shot and died on Sunday night. Up to this time there has been no par ticulars of how his death occurred, but we hope to lay the details of the sad occurrence before our readers next week. His remains were buried there, and we understand they will be brought to the home of his kindred some time next fall. SUCCESSFUL SCRUM:tr.—On last Th urS• dap, Dr. V. F. Fundenberg, oculist and aurist, from Cumberland, Md., operated upon Mr. Isaac Davis, of this county, for the removal of his right eye, which had been destroyed by au injury several years ago, causing the sigbt of the sound one to he very much impaired. The operation was entirely successful. Dr. E. H. Parsons, of this town, rendered valuable assistance.
