About that hour the tnieMs wore aroused by the re port of a shot, and found Cowen stretched or. the lloor with two bullet holes in his lieau, the lall having gone clear through his head and lodged in the walls.

Hick ory) Washington county, has. come to tho front with an amusing scheme for those who desire to secure good husbands or wives. Ho has a circular printed containing full in structions, which, if followed out by tho parties receiving them, he promises will bring them a life of joy and happiness. The following extracts are taken from a pam plet that fell into The DisrATCn correspond ent's hands: "Miss M W : "Dkab yitiEND-sIn pursuance of our busi ness, we take pleasure in informing you that we have received a communication from a gentleman friend of yours, who names you as one for whom he has great respeet, and with whom he wishes to cultivate a more in timate acquaintance, with a view of mutual Jileasure in each other's society, and per laps marriage."' Then follows minute instructions as to tho manner in which the correspondence la. to be carried on. The first paragraph reads thus: "Send us the names or several of your gentlemen friends whom you love and re spect and whoso further acquaintance you desire. If we find in the list the person who sent us your name, we will then know that there exists a mutual attraction between you, and we will inform each of yon of the fact." Further on this remarkable document ex plains: "If your list don't contain the name of the person who sent yours, we will not reply, our continued silence after two weeks being sufficient. Then, after awhile, if you wish, yon can send us another list which will most likelv contain the desired name. The beauty of this system is. that if you 'get tho mitten' no person but yonrscif will know it not even the person who mittens you." JOHN KKOX'S CLOCK. Once Owned by One of the Signers of the IecIaration of Independence. ncsrrixoDos, June M. A remarkable clock is owned here by W. 11. Woods, which will lie taken to the World's Fair and placed on exhibition there as being the most valuable historical relic of the days of John Knox. The clock was built at Paisley, Scotland, hy John Skeoch, in 1560, for John Knox, who died In 1502. This big eight-day clock has been handed down through the family for 150 years, finally coming into the possession of John Witherspoon, father of one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. When John Withersooon. the son. left Scotland in 17G8, to take charge of Princeton College, he took the old clock with him, and it was ticking in his parlor when he was elected to the old Continental Congress. When he died his will stated that It should remain in the family, and descend to the first bom of each succeeding generation. In this wav it reached the present owner, who is a lineal descendant of John Knox. The clock is eight feet high, built of rose wood, with brass works of verv heavy make. It is very handsome, and is still a good time keeper. JOHNSTOWN'S NEW EATLE0AD To Bo Built by the Pennsylvania Company to Develop New Coal Fields. JomtSTOwy, June It. It Is now pretty nearly a sure thing that Johnstown will have another railroad connection. The new line which is being built from Knylofs sta tion along the Ebensburg branch to develop the coal fields in the north of Cambria county will alsojbe extended to the Blackllck region, in Indiana and Cambria counties. A branch of the Pennsylvania line, which has been recently laid along the Conemaugh river on the old towpath, will connect with this end of the new road and the towpath line will be extended to this city, where it will make connection with the Pennsylvania road. Judge White, of Indiana, says the settle ment of the mortgage on the Ebensburg branch and its purchase by the Pennsylva nia Company is convincing proof that thev want full control for the purpose of devel oping the coal fields in the two counties. DB. WICKEESHAM'S EECENT DEATH. It Will Sadden the Commencement Exer cises at Slillersville. Everett, June H. The sudden death of Dr. J. P. Wickersham, of Lancaster, will materially affect the alumni exercises of the Pennsylvania State Xormal College, of Mil lersville. Dr. Wickersham was one of the early principals of this college, which is the oldest in the State, and the exercises on July 1 wero intended as a celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of his promotion to the superin tendency of public instruction in Pennsylvania. Among the alumni of this famous college are members of Congress, judges, ministers, and many men prominent in evervpath of me, aim ji was lnienuea 10 make toe occa sion memorable in honor of the aged in structor, who had taught many of the guests in the early days of the college. His death, however, will greatly niar the exercises, and instead of a day of rejoicing, it will consist largely of memorial exercises. A STANDABD OIL SCHEME. It Is Thought That They Are Going to Tun nel Under a Lake. Lima, June 11. Mr. Fisher, editor of the Mercer county Dcmoct-at, came here to-night from Celina. He brings the Intelligence that the Standard Oil Company have men leasing land west of that city, and that another party of leasers are on the south side, near Cnrthagcreia, as this t-orapanv has all the land on the west side, near St. Mary's, lcas-ed. He believes that adeep plan of the Standard is to tunnel nnder this immense body of water and gradually run off the water into St. Mary's river. His story seems plaus ible, as they have already wells drilled 300 feet beyond the high water mark of April last. Mr. Fisher leaves here in the morning for Columbus, to confer with Hon. Frank J. McCullogh, member of the Board ofPublio Works, the Canal Commissioner having failed to take prompt action. A VTJLTUEE VANQUISHED. Two Men Succeed in Killing a Large Bird Near Fawn Grove.

H THEFMT EAffl. Pittsburg Compares JYell With .New YorkandThlladelpMa. PAR AHEAD 'IN TRACTION ROADS. Some Buildings Only Duplicated in America on Broadway. FAVORABLE P01KTS OF DIFFERENCE A former Irish .newspaper man, blessed with keen powers of observation,has been in Pittsburg for the past week,- seeing the sights. JIe writes the following for The Dispatch, giving his impressions of this citv, in comparison with Philadelphia and New York: To a stranger who has visited New York, Philadelphia and other great centers of population in the East, Pittsburg appears as a type of American city somewhat distinct from any lie has yet seen. In New i. ork he was impressed principally with the power of the almighty dollar. Without hard cash could be had nothing. In the metropolitan city nothing is ever gratis. If you ask your way on the street, you instinctively felt for the quarter which you cannot but imagine your Informant is hankering after for his trouble. From the shoeblack, who never receives BufBcient remuneration, up to the millionaire, who never knows when lie has enough, every New Yorker spends his en tire strength and energy in beating his neighbor and in amassing wealth. "Bo or you will be done" would seem to be the rnling motto of the Gothamite. Certainly a stranger's first impressions of the people of the Empire. Citv are anything but favorable. As to the city itself it is magnificent, although apparently one of the worst governed on the face of the earth. In no other, city in the civilized world would such a deplorable muddle of municipal affairs be allowed to exist Rapid transit, except on the h roads, is apparently a dream beyond the realization of the present genera tio'n of New Yorkers, unless, indeed, some one with at least an elementary knowledge of municipal government takes the matter in hand and carries it to a successful issue. All of the Streets Blockaded. The streets being, as a rule, exceedingly narrow, and most egregiously ill-paved, are almost continually blocked by the immense traffic of the city, so much so in fact that only last week the Postmaster General had to give notice owing to the blocking of traffic in the city the mails could not be dis patched at the usual time, and in future the boxes would dose 15 minutes earlier. To make matters worse, scarcely a day passes without a gang of workmen being sent to tear up the roadways for new pipes of water, gas, etc., and thus is confusion worse con founded. Coming from New York to Philadelphia, the tourist is more or less disappointed with the Quaker City. He misses the towering buildings of the metropolis, and the mad dening rush for gold which characterized the inhabitants of Gotham. In the matter of public buildings, however, Philadelphia can pretty well hold her own, the new municipal building ranking, perhaps, even above that of the Empire City. The parks of the Pennsylvania metropolis are her chief glory, and reflect well upon the public spirit of ber citizens. Unfor tunately, owing to some cause or other, the Quaker City is generallv credited with being rather slow and uninteresting, but this may in some degree be due to the fun eral cortege arrangements which do duty for a transit system. In this regard Pitts burg is far ahead of her Eastern rival, the electric and cable cars being apparently more carefully managed. In many other points Pittsburg is undeniably creeping ahead. Business here seems to be conducted on a munji more substantial and enduring basis than in any of the Eastern cities, and the general prosperity of the city also ap pears to be of a more solid character. In New Y'ork prosperity is of a rather fickle nature, and those who to-day ride on top may to-morrow be crushed to earth under the wheels. In Philadelphia progress ap pears to be somewhat slow and uncertain, bnt in this town a stranjjer can at once per ceive the progressive spirit of the people, and can have no hesitation in predicting a splendid luture lor their city. Fine Buildings Here. Like most other American cities, Pitts burg rejoices in the possession of many handsome public buildings which could not be equaled in England unless in towns of twice the population. The hotels and rail road depots, are also much superior to those of English cities of similar size. The streets are, however, much narrower, but in that respect New York and Philadelphia are equally lacking. It is at night that the city appears at its best The hot glare of the summer sun gives place to the cooi and subdued glow of thou sands of electric lights, which, being com paratively unused in England for such pur poses, present a novel spectacle to the tourist and delight him with the city. Fifth avenue, Smithfield street and liberty street would do honor to New York, while such structures astheWestinghouse, the Fidelity Title and Trust Company, and the two big bank buildings ou opposite corners of Sixth avenue and Wood street would be difficult to equal outside of Broadway. As regards the inhabitants of the city, a stranger certainly is treated with much more friendliness here than in some of the East, whose people lay more claim to polish and refinement than db the people of Pitts burg. In business matters, while possess ing all the proverbial 'cutcness of the Yan kee, they have managed to escape that over reaching and sharp dealing which unfortu nately is still to be found in other parts of the country. The importance of the indus tries in this part of the country, and the favorable position occupied by the city, cannot fail, in the immediate future, to still further increase the prosperity of Pittsburg, and the natural well-being of 'her citizens. Allegheny Also In Line. Across the river Allegheny bids fair to follow in the lead of her enterprising neigh bor. Business appears to be in a most flourishing condition, and if present indica tions are lulfilled it will not be long before the city occupies a much more prominent position in business circles than it does at present Iu public works it is not in any way behind. Its magnificent parks would not be out of place among the finest pleasure grounds in the country. The statues which adorn them are a credit to the city's patriot ism and liberality. The Carnegie Library is also a splendid ornament to the town, in addition to being an invaluable means of education for the masses. Taken as a whole, the stranger can be NATURAL FRUIT FLAVORS.
