Very Saving. There is a man in this
vicinity who promised lo pay us a little bill,
before this, if alive. As we see him round
town occasionally, we suppose ho is dead
and is walking around to save funeral ex
penses. Matches. We see it slated in somo of
our exchanges that tho tax on matches has
been removed. This is not tho case,
there st ill being a tax of ono cent on each
box containing one hundred or less, and an
additional cent on each additional hundred
or fraction of a hundred.
Dr. Bigelow, who resides near Lewis
town, has delivered himself to the authori
ties, in consequence of rumors to the cil'ect

result of foul play. The parties had not
lived very pleasantly, henco tho rumor.
The affair will be investigated.
Altoona is troubled with burglars and in
cendiaries. Both are troublesomo fellows
to have in a community, and tho citizens
arc consequently desirous of having thein
removed and cared tor at the county ex
pence. Wc have received a letter strongly advo
cating tho merits of a very worthy citizen
f or the position of Senator. As tho Timet
is not a party paper, wo must decline to
publish any such letters unless the persons
wishing them inserted arc willing to pay
for them as advertisements. In that case,
persons c:.i have such space in our columns
as they are willing to pay for, without re
gard to the parly they desire to servo.

July 8, St.
The ltoomcrnng. In answer to a corre
spondent who asks " what a Boomerang
is?" wo reply: "It is a weapon made
from hard wood, and is generally about 2
feet long, 2 inches wide, and inch thick.
It is bent to a slight curve, the inch faco
presenting a convex front, which, by ono of
the sides being rounded is brought to a
blunt edge, and it is thrown with this edgo
forward. The peculiarity of the weapon
consists in the manner in which it is used.
Tho person throwing it turns his buck to
the point of at tack, and throws tho weapon
with great force, as though aiming at an
object about thirty yards before him. Tho
action of tho air on tho curved edge and
rounded side makes tho weapon describe a
circle, until it finally hits llio object really
aimed at, which is within one to two hun
dred yards in the rear of the person having
thrown it. It is used with great effect by
the natives of Australia, by whom it was
invented, and it is said that they will kill
biids at a distance of two hundred yards.
A person not used to throwing ono would
be very apt to find it coming back, and hit
ting him on the head so as to badly injure
him.
ail I?oud. Wo have received two coin-
munications complaining loudly about the
new road from Newport to Millerstown.
One of correspondents asserts that "tho
road is positively unsafe afler dark, and
even in day time it is unfit for use. llo
further asserts, with how much truth we
do not know, that Hie road never was need
ed by the public, and was only made for
the accommodation of some few individu
als. We do know that the county was tax
ed for tho purpose of making the road, and
it was supposed that the township in which
it lay would keep it in order, so that the
public could use it, if inclined so to do. If
something is not dono before the August
court, one of our correspondents says he
M ill have the supervitors returned for neg
lect of duty.
A Case of Almost Fatal Poisoning. The
Pittston Gazette says : An. attache of the
Gazelle, Mr. S. T. Mufily, formerly of How
ard, Centre county, Pa., has received the
startling intelligence that his two sisters,
a brother and brother-in-law had narrowly
escaped death by poison. Their milk cows
had grazed upon a poisonous shrub known
us the deadly hemlock, which had so even
onied tho milk that it required all tho skill
of a number of physicians to save tho lives
of all who drank of it.
Dr. Sclioejipe's ('use has been decided by
tho Supiemo Court ; that court sustaining
tho veidict against him. There is now no
hope for him unless tho Governor should
delay ordering his execution until tho Leg
islature should meet, when they might see
lit to rectify the mistakes of last winter's
Legislation. It is, however, probable that
there is no hope of his oscaping tho mur
derer's doom.
A Swindler. A man named W. C. Stairs
has been victimizing tlie newspaper propri
etors and citizens of York, by represent
ing himself as the agent and part proprie
tor of several papers, and taking subscrip
tions therefor. Tho publishers, however,
did not sec the money, nor tho subscribers
their papers. IIo has left that place,
and will probably attempt his swindles in
some other locality.
Life IiiHuranco is now recognized by every
good business man as one of tho best pro
visions bo can make for his family, and
tho only question is to select a good com
pany. For such we can confidently recom
mend the Continental, whose advert isement
cau be found in another column. The gen
eral agent for this Stalo is Mr. J. F. Eaton,
of llarrisburg.
A IleoTj Mortgage. A mortgage given
by tho Pennsylvania Canal company to
Herman 8. Lombaert, in trust for the above
company, is being put upon record in fifteen
counties in this State. Tho stamps requir
ed for this, amount to$5,000. Tho $."5,000,
000 arc divided into bonds of f. "5,000 each.
The Democrats of Philadelphia havo
nominated Sam. Josephs again as their
representative. A littlo girl hearing them
speak of him asked if he- was the Joseph
who was sold by.liis brethren ? " Not ex
actly," replied the father' "though it is
generally supposed he has been bought a
good many times."
A Tire Alarm at Huntingdon on Sunday
night a week, caused tho congregations at
tho churches to suddenly thin out. A coal
oil lamp caused tho alarm.
A National camp meeting was opened at
Oakngton, Md., on last Thursday.

DiiCQiuioi) Items. The Iron Works hero
resumed operations last Monday, after a
week of vacation.
On the sumo day quite an excitement was
raised by the antics, in the streets,of a heif
er belonging to Jones and Young. A ehaso
of half an hour was required to effect her
capture.
On Tuesday last tho reservoir supplying
water to tho boilers at the works, was
found to be empty, somo defect in tho
pumps causiiiK tho diflicuUy. The chief
engineer sncecded in getting matters fixed
beforo any accident from lack of water oc
curred.
A stono mason named Leighty, employed
at McMorris' new building, caused severe
injuries to a child named Shanb, on Thurs
day, by dumping it from a wheelbarrow
onto a pile of stones, because ho neglected
to get off when asked so to do. The man
was arrested and bound over in the sum of
?;!00 to await the injuries of tho boy.
Our citizens complain about tho side
walks and curbs. Many of them are so
high that a person walking on Front street
at night is sure to drop from under his hat
or snap his neck stepping off at tho cross
ings. In this respect I am glad to see that
the pavement being but down by John
Heftier differs from others, as it will not
have theso "jumping off' places,
