We would especially oall the attention of our readers and the public Id geoerkl to the new advertisement or tba Jamestown Clothing Store, to be found elsewhere. Mr. A. Al dan, tbe gentlemanly proprietor, bss just relumed from tbe east with tbe Inest stock or spring and summer goods, ot tbe latest Paris and New Yoik lasbioos,. eves brought , to Ibis region. The stock oonsista in ptrt of summer overcoat, straw and- ship bats, white and cheviot shirts, elegant neckties, Bobby scirfs, linen vests and pant, and in fact anything and everything In the line Of clothing and gent's luroisbing goods. Considering the very many new and novs I attractions in tbe clothing line offered by Alien, and the fact that be Is selling goods at ruinous figures almost, there Is no need for our QUIzens to ge out of town tor tbe purpose of buying clothing, when tbey esn get tbe ssme at borne Just ss cheap. An examination of bis stock and prices 'will convince allot the truth of this assertion. Tba 'strikers" on ibe Warren 4 Venango Railroad were pa'4 off and discharged to dsy.

About two o'clock tbls morning, while honest peaceful citizens were wrspt In slumbers, suddenly tbeir arose a "yell of anguish, as ol demons jint let feonr from pandemonium carousing In midnight revel. Our reporter, startled from hlssweetdreame of Innocence, hastily donned his clothing and made a break for the street, supposing ol course that something of fearful Import bad occurred, and was already rejoicing In tbe prospect of a first-class sensation Item. Tho first sound tbat greeted his ear, was a stream of vulgarity and black guard Ian guage tbat would put to tbatne tbe most abandoned, emanating from tbe mouth of a woman, who was standing in the window of a certain law office. In the second story of Ibe brick hank building. Tbe noise ceased for a few moments and was then resumed by tbe woman, mingled with oaths and vile language from one rr two men who were in the room, and finally resulted in a geceral breakdown and'collspse of tbe furniture and stove at tbe bands ol tbe infuriated woman, who It seems bad been locked in tbe room by tbe men, and was striving to get out. Subsequently tbo door was opened and tbe trail woman let loose, and peace restored. A word further. Tbe woman In question Is a well known loose character, bad enough for all common purposes, but what can be said In palliation of tbe tMngs In human form who thus outrage all manner of decen cy and tbe feelings of respectable people,by indulging In mldnlgbt broils and carousals like that enacted last night, the details of which are too disgusting for a bare recital even. We would advise tbein to crawl Into some convenient mud or post bote and pull it in after them. We shall be compelled to give tbe names of these men in full In ease another such disgracelul affair comes nnder our notice.

Both parties bad been awakened by tbe shock aud being old settlers immediately divined Ibe cause. They had both sprang from bed, and both, by a Strange fatality, bsd taken refuge in the elevator. As soon ss tbe excitement con sequent upon such an unlookedlor event had cooled down, our Inhabitants ot the eleva tor began to realize tbeirswkward situation. Each sat looking at the other, fearful of sptfch, and still more fearful of discovery by a group or young lellows wbo bad gath ered In tbe hallway near tbe door or tbe elevator, and were engaged In a humorous discussion or tbe Incidents of Ibe "shake." Match nights are not over sultry In Califor nia, and tbeir sharpness becomes doubly ap parent when one is endisbabille io anjin hospitable hotel elevator. While the young men joked, tbe pair In the elorator shivered and mentally deplored tbeir fates. All things have an end, and so did the misery of our Innocents. Tbe group in the ball dispersed, and when all bee i mo quiet out rushed our youth and following blm, our maid. Both started for their separate rooms, and both met "Boots," wbo was on bis morning round. Tbey passed on, snd in tbe morning be circulated Ibe report so extensively tbat tbe young lady's pa was forced to accede to ber request to go to Ibe spriugs for the season.
