which the respective wards contribute to the
grand total, as follows: First, 895 ; Second,
1.340 ; Third, 1,082, and Fourth 860. The
population in 1870 was 3,024, a gain of 1,143
in ten years. The year ending May 31st, 1880,
there were 38 deaths. The number of pro
ductive industries 38.

staunchest young Republicans, and the
liveliest insurance agent in the universe, hung

On the sth of July, Arthur Hays, a nine
year old son of Dr. D. S. Hays, of Hollidays

ploded, a piece of the copper cartridge cutting
one of his lingers slightly. A few days after
wards he was taken quite ill with tetanus or
lockjaw, and on Friday last died, after the most
distressing agony. From newspaper accounts
we learn that there has been numerous deaths
from the same cause, and it would be well
with parents by putting such playthings out
of the reach of their children. It is a pity
the inventor could not get a dose of the same
medicine he has invented to cause the death
of the little ones.
During the prevalence of the thunder
storm, ou Thursday afternoon, the steeple of
the Luther') church was struck by lightning
and badly shattered. It was only in April
last that two of the pilasters were blown
down. As the lightning has struck churches
in other localities this summer we may §ay
truthfully that it has a penchant for knocking
steeples into smithereens.
We understand that an effort is being made
by some interested persons to induce the Di
rectors to change the whole series of books
now in use in the public schools of this . bor
ough. We are pleased to learn, however, that
there is no likelihood of the effort proving
successful. The books now in use are as good
as any other, and to change them would sim.
ply be an outrage. More anon. -
Tyrone Herald: "When telegraphed for,
the Huntingdon Company was slightly de
layed for want of transportation, and was
obliged to procure a car from the H. dt B. T.
It. IL Thirty-six minutes after leaving Hun
tingdon, the boys had their engine throwing
water from the Bald Eagle. With unremitting
efforts they fought it out on that line, until
their services were no longer needed."
The Huntingdon and Tyrone firemen, after
seeing the Altoona firemen work, learned a
thing or two about fighting fires.—Altoona
Call. The "Huntingdon" firemen didn't need
to learn anything about "fighting fires," as
their conduct fully demonstrated. In four
minutes after they arrived at Tyrone they bad
two streams playing, and kept them going
without intermission during their five hours'
stay.
Mr. Joseph Isenberg., whose death we pub
lished last week, was born in the "Loop" near
Alexandria, this county, in 1795 ' and was a
descendant of the Isenbergs who settled in
this county previous to the Revolutionary

this world's goods he had amassed a con
siderable portion of them through his strict
honesty and untiring energy.
Mr. Rinehart, the contractor for the stone
work of the new Cambria Court House, began
work on the foundation, one day last week.
His working gang comprises only two per
sons beside himself at present, but the number
will be increased as soon as practicable. Un
employed stone masons, he bays, are hard to
find at this season of the year, but he hopes
to pick up a dozen or so in he course of a
week. Here may be a chance for some of our
unemployed.
On Saturday morning, at the Franklin
House, an infant child belonging to Esther
Kyler, was found lying upon its face in bed
dead. During the Jay a Coroner's inquest was

circumstances ofits death was such as to have
an investigation cf the case, and after the jury
heard the evidence, the following verOict was
rendered : "That the child was bum alive,
and died from negligence of the mother in
her weak and helpless condition." The child
was born during the night. previous.
Mr. Denny, who lives at Warrior Ridge sta
tion, four miles west of this place, on Wed
nesday last stirred up a den of copperheads—
not the supporters of Hancock—in what is
known as the "Lime Kiln Hollow," located
about half a mile east of the station, and suc
ceeded in killing thirty of the slimy creatures.
This hollow is noted for its abundance of
snakes of different kinds, and berry-pickers
who have occasion to pass through it would
do well by keeping a top eye open for the var
mints. A few years ago we chronicled the
routing of a deu of rattlesnakes in the same
place.
One day last week, Railroad Policeman Al
len had a warrant placed in his baud by De
tective Roat, of Harrisburg,. fur the arrest of
one George Smith, a dealer in old rags and
paper, and whose home is near the new peni
tentiary. Smith, before his removal to this
place, was a junk dealer in Harrisburg, and it
is alleged that he bought a lot of brass stolen
from the Northern Central Railroad, and was
arrested upon this charge. He was taken to
the Dauphin county jail by the detective, al
though an attempt was . made here by his
friends to have him released upon a writ of
habeas corpus.
The lecture room of the First Methodist
church, on which some repairs were being
put, was finished last week, and services held
by Rev. Hinkle, its pastor, on Sunday. The
changes made are quite an improvement on
the old room, and it is now the cosiest lecture
room in the borough. The parties having
the affair in hand are proud over their suc
cess, and they have a right to be. The au
dience room is still in the hands of the fresco
painter, and will not be finished for quite a
length of time yet. We understand regular
church services will be held in the lecture
room hereafter until the room above is finish
ed.
That Huntingdon girl, who, sonic moat ha
ago in Akron, Ohio, attempted to climb the
golden stairs by taking a dose of aconite, cre
ated a lively buzz:in Altoona Monday evening,
by taking another dose of the same poison, to
end her miserable existence. After she got
over her violent vomiting, caused by taking
an overdose, she was removed to the lockup,
where she spent the night under lock and
key. Tuesday evening she was sent by the
police authorities to her home in this place.
The girl is only about 19, and at the lightning
;peed rate she is going to her ruin, it is but a
matter of time when she will be called on
to "hand in her check" lawfully.
Jacob Renner, esq., an aged and well known
citizen of Altoona, died on Tuesday morning,
at his residence in that city, in his 74th year.
Mr. Renner was born near Huntingdon i n the
year 1807, and remained on his father's farm
until his 17th year, when he went to Williams
burg to learn the cabinet-making trade. He
lived for a few years at Alexandria and Pe
tersburg, this county,at Tipton, and in Clear
field county, but finally removed to Altoona
where he spent the balance of his days. H is
employment was as a clerk in the carpenter
shops of the railroad company up to 1870,
when be was compelled to retire from active
business life on account of failing health.—
Ilis remains were interred at Petersburg on
Wednesday afternoon.
At the Pennsylvania railroad meeting, in
Philadelphia, on June 30th, the Board of Di
rectors passed the following preamble and res
olution, which, in the form of a vircular, has'
been posted conspicuously for the benefit of
employes :
WHEREAS, It has been the avowed policy of
this company to keep aloof from all political
contests, anit to discountenance any active
participation of its officers and employes
therein :
Resolved, That while disclaiming any de
sire to interfere with the individual rights of
our officers, agents or employes i•• the exercise
of the right of suffrage we will regard any at
tempt on their part to control the votes of
those in the service of Ois company, or to
pervert their influecce to the support of any
political party, as a direct violation of the
standing rules and regulations and incon
sistent with the interests of the company.
Jacob Givler, at one time employed as a
freight conductor on the H. & B. T. R. R.,
died at Renova, on the Bth:inst, in his 68th year.
Mr. Givler was well known in the Juniata
Valley, having married in Juniata county in
1831, and settled in this county shortly after
wards, being employed as foreman for the
State Canal Company. On the building of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, he was awarded a
sub-contract to build a part c' a section of
the road at tiewton Hamilton. 'ln was in the
employ of the railroad company from that
time until 1862, when be went to Nashville,
Tenn., and served nine months as conductor
on a railroad for the United States Govern
ment. It was after his return from the South
that be was engaged on the Broad Top Road.
In the spring of 1863, he removed to Renova,
and was employed as yard dispatcher, Last
February he received a second stroke of para
lysis, and from that time has declined rapidly
until death released him from his pain.
F'UCCESSFUL SURGERY.—SeveraI days
ago Dr. W. F. Fundenberg, the oculist and
aurist from Cumherland, who at present
spends two days of each week with us, assist
ed by our Dr. West, operated upon Hiss Wil
liams, aged about 30, from Deer Park, for the
relief of that terrible deformity usually known
as "hair lip." The case was operated upon
by some army surgeon stationed here during
the war, but was not altogether a success.
The deformity has now been relieved as much
as it is possible to be, and bad the case been
treated properly when the patient was only a
few months old, no mark of it would have
remained.
On the same day Dr. F. removed the right
eye-ball from Alice Zrown, age 17, a servant
in the family of Mr. Washington Finley, of
Laurel Dale, this county. This poor girl has
been unusually unfortunate. Several years
ago whilst chopping wood, a piece flew up and
struck the eye, injuring it to :such an extent
as to deprieve her of at least half the sight.
About ten days ago, in the same manner, the
entire sight of the right eye was destroyed,
necessitating its removal at once in order to
insure the little sight remaining in the other
eye.
Both of these operations were entirely suc
cessful. Dr. F. has under treatment a large
number of patients from this and neighboring
counties, and, from what we know, has bad
remarkable success.—Keyser (W. Vu.) Tribune.

with a few timely remarks.
Dr. R. R. Weistling and L. B. Kline were

Club for the campaign, and a committee, con
sisting of Messrs. Jos. G. Isenberg, Frank W.
Stewart and Al. Tyhurst, were also appointed
to select a suitable room for a club room, and

STORE I{ol3BED. — The store of John
Stapleton, located at Beavertown, in Tod tp.,
this county, was burglarized on Friday morn.•
ing last, between daylight and sunrise, and
despoiled of tobacco, segars, handkerchiefs,
and a pocketbook containing about $l5. Sus
picion rested on a young man named Asbury
French, who was working in the neighbor
hood, and who left the place that morning,
coming to Huntingdon on the Emigrant train
Saturday noon. News of the robbery and a
description of young French had been sent to
Detective Westbrook, and that officer was on
the lookout for the young man. Soon after
the arrival of the train he found his man in
Fisher's restuarant, opposite the depot, dress
ed entirely different from what be was when
he left the scene of his crime. Mr. Westbrook
took him in custody, and went with him to
the baggage-room at the depot for the purpose
of searching his baggage and his person. He
found two pocketbooks in his possession, in
one of which was the name of Mr. Stapleton
and some private papers belonging to that
gentleman. When these evidences of guilt
were found, be admitted that he committed
the robbery, and in default of bail he was
sent to to prison to await trial at the August
Sessions. The young man is a' , lut 19 years of
age, and we understand is respectably con
nected.
GOOD APPLES—Wanted on Monday,
Tuesday and Thursday of each week.
C. F. Yong k Co.
A BRUTAL ASSAULT.—WesIey Bailey
and Archy Sl'Donald are young men who veg
etate in Tyrone, but who came to our town a
few days ago for the purpose of obtaiuicg
work, the former of whom secured a job in
the stone quarry near this place. On Satur
day, Bailey went on a "racket," and during
the afternoon he became drunk, noisy and
quarrelsome. As he went staggering along
Allegheny street, be came up with M'Donald,
who was standing at the corner of Fourth st.,
and without saying a word he struck him a
brutal blow with a brick or iron knuckles,
cutting a severe gash in his face and knocking
several of his teeth out. .Constable West
brook promptly arrested Bailey and took him
to Fort Irvin, where he will remain until
Judge Dean disposes of his case. The assault
was cowardly and brutal, and the perpetrator
of it should be made. to feel the full rigor of
the law.
EXTRACHON OF AN EYE BY WHICH
ONE IS SAVED.—Two weeks ago a son, aged
18, of Air. Coon Broad, of Borden Shaft, in
digging coal, run the sharp end of a pick in
his right eye, thereby destroying almost the
entire sight. lie came to this city at once for
treatment and all reasonable efforts were made
to save the injured member and had almost
been successful, when, owing to the peculiar
nature and position of the wound, sympathet

A FOOL ONCE MORE.—"For ten years
my wife was confined to her bed with such a
complicatiot of ailments that no doctor could
tell what was the matter or cure her, and I
used up a small fortune in humbug stuff. Six
months ago I saw a U. S. flag with flop Bitters
ou it, and I thought I would be a fool once
more. I tried it, but my folly proved to be
wisdom. Two bottles cured her, she is now as
well and strong as a.iy man's wife, and it cost
me only two dollars. Such folly pays.—H.
