Mr. Lo cis Knoll, our Fashionable German
barber and hair dresser, has - been-greatly itn-
Imptoving Us residence on JaCkson Street, by
paint and otherwise, and he has also lain a new
plank walk. And right here we have another
matter which demands our attention, and that
is the crying nuisance In the condition of the
Street and swamp just below his residence. The
manner In which the filth of the town and Its
whole drainage from Sayre's Foundry to that
point is allowed to accumulate there, is not on
ly disgraceful to the authorities, but will (if it
has not already) bread direase and death, not
only to the family of Mr.Knoll,but to the whole
vicinity. We made a visit to that point on
Saturday last, and we found that not only filthy
water was spread out there to stagnate and
breed malaria, but with it was a mixture of
dead dogs, cats and the bones of other carcass
es whose genus we are unable to give. There
is no ditch or drain to carry this away, but It
Is spread over the street and Into the lot below
making the road there almost impassable on
foot for several rods. We like cisterns for pro
tection against fire, but first and above all oth
er considerations is the health and lives of our
citizens. We say, and we believe correctly so,
that II all other street Improvements must stop
in consequence, this nuisance should at once be
abated by a thorough ditch ann sluice to carry
off this carious matter beyond power of injury.
It is a thing that can be easily done and the au
thorities shoqld not hesitate any longer,

"Calumny."
The ilarrisurg Telegraph pronounces the
statement of the Patriot that Gen. Harrison
Allen has Joined the Grangers a "trumped up
charge" and a "calumny." The farmers will
doubtless appreciate this compliment from
the State organ of the republican party. That
Journal evidently regard them as "a bad
lot,' since it esteems the mere statement
that a certain person has been admitted to
membership in the Grange a calumny upon the
Individual.

A correspone.ent writes that a handful of salt
rubbed on the body of a home directly over the

" Rub briskly and until the salt dissolves, and

the horse does not get over it In fifteen to thirty
minutes, then say I know nothing about it.
For thirty five years/ have not known It to frill.

itallroad Enterprise.
The year 1873, although extremely unhealthy
in its latter months for certain classes of rail
road enterprises, did not interfere with the
healthy growth of the others. Poor's manual
of railroads in operation at the close of last yea,
was 70,651, an inerrise, of 8,301 in number of
miles operated. There was built during the
year 3,910 miles. The gross earnings of the
roads amounted to 665,000,000 more than In 1872
This increase has arisen, not from an increase in
the tariffs, but from the transaction of a great
er volume of business in all sections of the
country.
Good Walks.
The Country Gentleman adv ises grass garden
walks. A correspondent spaded up all his
walks, added good soil enough to raise them to
a level with the adjoining beds, raked and roll
ed them till they were firm and-even, and then
sowed them with mixed lawn grass seed,scnfich
ing In with a rake. "In three weeks I had the
pleasure of walking on green velvet instead of
gritty gravel, and with the help of the lawn
mower have no further trouble with my paths.
Always green and pleasant to the foot and eye,
never washing, never weedy, never muddy,
never wet, being above the garden level, they
are a joy forever; and the perfection of garden

We would suggest that when the evils of

natural laws bring innumerable miseries upon

`That the pay of the County Commissioners

balling Eggs by weight.
The Legislature of Massachusetts has lately
passed a law making it necessary that a dozen
eggs weigh one and a half pounds. That is a
move In the right direction. It Is annoying to
the breeder of blooded and fine fowls to find,
when he offers for sale eggs nearly twice 09 large
as his neighbor's, that they bring no more per
dozen than do the smaller ones. Also, the con
sumer Is often vexed to find- that he must pay
the same prim to day fora dozen eggs weigh
ing a pound {hat he yesterday paid fur a dozen
weighing a pound and a half Besides an egg
from a well fed fowl is heavier and richer than
an egg from a common fowl that is only half
fed ; so weight compared to size Is a combina
tion of riches
Ilelancholly Suicide

" Yederday morning, Mrs. T. IL Arnold, of
Sylvania, Bradford Co., Pa., porch:tried some

She ma's very highly 'respected by those who

Attempted Stint . da.
Thomas Thornton, until about four months
since a resident of Lanesboro, attempted to
commit suicide by shooting himself with a pis
tol. in the Fifth Ward, Elmira, about noon on
Thursday of last week. The ball entered the
left side and it is supposed glanced upon a rib
and lodgetlin.the back. Thornton was convey
ed to the Surgical Institute, where his wounds'
were dressed by Dr. Laescher, after which he
was taken to the witness room in the jail.
He is a carriage maker by trade, and since
leaving home, had been working in Bath, N.Y.,
and other places in the vicinity. He was on
his way home, (to Lanesboro,) having purchas
ed a ticket to Elmira. lie was evidently out
of his head when he attempted to take bla life,
having purchased a pistol an wandered aim
lessly away from the depot, fie was possessed
of an idea that some one was searching for hint
to arrest him, for what he did not know, and,
utterly discouraged, acted as he did.—Gazette.
Newspaper Advertising
Newspaper advertising is now recognized, by
business men baying faith In their own warm,
as the most effective means for nearing for
their goods a wide recognition of their merits.
Newspaper adrertising impels Inquiry, and
when the article offered Is of good quality, and
at a fair price, the natural result is Increased

We were glad to see on our visit to Great pad
last week that the rive ridge is progressing
finely under the mana meet of James E.
Howe, and the day la t far distant when the
traveler will not be bilged to hallo "ovei' at

showi thrift and enterprise,
ong the most prominent of tneso was the
lighting of the streets by twenty lamp posts.
Business seemed to be quite active notwith
standing the hard times. With Henry Ackert
to keep the "Valley Howe" and entertain the
weary traveler la such first class style ; with
L. S. Mahan, EL P. Doran and others to fur

and that growing young physician, Dr S. W.

with Nathan Lenhelm to pay the checks at
their Banking House, it Is the extremest lolly
to say that the town will die. It Is not In the
nature of things.
New 11Llford
We know of no town in the county of the
size of New Minn] Borough that has more thri
ving prospects. A large amount of building
and repairing is already commenced this sea
son. Mr. Julius Shultz, formerly with Sayre
Brothers of Montrose, has started a machine
shop and there are other prospects for an In
crease of manufactories. There is no point more
convenient tor, or locality more Inviting to such
enterprists than New Milford. This borough
In its infancy had Its " street" tend so common
to all such towns, but we are happy to say that
It Is now entirely convalescent in that respect.
We can remember when the "up town" people
got control of government affairs and went to
"Ilaydenville" (as the lower part was called)and
plowed op the streets making feartul gulfs In
front of the dwellings in that vicinity. Natural
to conclude, this raised a spirit of retaliation,
and then the "down town" folks were moat ac
tive in elections, and got control and then away
went the grass plots in front of the dwellings
of the "up town" section, and a yawning ditch
in its place. We would say however that these
feuds are now in the dim vista of the past,
and the children who play on the "Green"
at this time are entirely ignorant of their exis
tence. That it may be known what has cured
this malady we will say, that the street com
missioner, Mr. Philander Phinney, has demon
strated his competency, and has been continued
is off:tele for a number °rimers and the Council,
notwithstanding the cry of "expense," every
year expended the taxecln filling up and gra
ding with gravel, as Mr is the taxes would com
plete it, and thus, by thileourse the whole street
is graded in that way, which now costs a mere
tritle, comparafively, - toleep it in repair, and it
will remain so for years to come. 'We venture
to.say that . ' there is nq town in this locality
that has no flue a track. This clearly proves
that street work should- be done thorough as
far as it goes, and that money had better be ex
pended on a small space, and complete the
work, taking another section the -next year,
than to be spread all over the town to no etlect
any where. simply to he done Over the next

Sudden Death.
We copy the following concerning the death
of Mr. George T. Cole, from We Scranton Daily
&Tublimn of Tuesday, June 0:
George T. Cole,a resident of Towanda, where
he has been for a number of years largely en
gaged in the musical Instrument business-- r the
firm of Cole, Passage st Co. being known
throughout all northern Pennsylvania—died
Sunday night, at the Luzerne House, Wilkes.
Barre, in a most unaccountable way, his lifeless
body being found in his room, about noon yes
terday, misahappen from the position in which
it had been for a number of hours, and the face
being discolored to a livid hue and much bloat
ed. When found the body rested at the side of
the bed upon its knees, the left hand upon the
hed,tbe arm upon the floor, with the weight
bearing upon the elbow, and the head reclining
low upon the breast and right arm,and towards
the foot of the bed. He stopped at the hotel
Fridayevening, when he came into the city,
and Sunday night, when he asked for the key
to his room, between 0 and 10 o'clock, he ap
peared perfectly well and in good spirits. Ycs
terday morning when the chambermaid tried
the door and found it locked, she thought noth
ing of it, concluding that the occupant had nut
yet risen. She tried the door several times dor
ing the morning, and about noon, thinking it
strange that there was no response, she asked
the porter to see what the reason was, remark
ing that "maybe the man is dead." The por
ter first tried to gain entrance by knocking.—
Failing in this way he looked In through a
crack over the door and could see only the hand
that lay on the side of the bed. The door,wl)lch
was locked on the inside, was then broken
open and entrance gained, when Mr. Cole was
found as above describe& An inquest was held
by C. L. Bulkeley, alderman, the proper jury
being impaneled, and an examination made by
Dr. Betterly, who stated it to be his conviction
that death had resulted from dtioplexy, every
indication in his judgement going to show this.
Upon this the Inquest rendered a Verdict that
death had resulted from natural causes. The
friends of the deceased In Towanda were tele
graphed to and were to arrive in the city last
evening at 8:30 o'clock to take charge of the
body, and make such (briber investigation as
may seem to be demanded.
An examination made by another physician
gave rise to the opinion that there had been vi
olence which might have -occasioned a form of
apoplexy, but that the death did not result
from apoplexy in its accepted meaning. It was
deemed advisable to place the body in ice and
await the coming of friends to determine what
steps to take. The watch of the deceased lay
upon the bed, be had little or no money, and
his clothing lay apparently as be had left it,
and nothing about the room bad flom appear
ances been diliurbed. .A
person oecupying an
adjacent room spoke of having heard strange
noises during the night;but as they ceased-af
ter a short time paid no attention to them.
Mr. Cole was not unknown in Wilkes-Barra
'Ha spent suits) months of last year there in
itridgliterittig up some business strain in which
histlrm had become Involved, and was there
at Ibis W 1 to litratigalluther reypirdlitc . them.

As I have had occasion to see several persona,
who, for sometime, have used Hall's Vegetable
Sicillian Hair Renewer, and know that It has
restored the original color of hair, as well as
being efficient In removing the Itching and
dandruff that accompanies the falling off of the
hair, I consider it my duty to acknowledge the
same to Mr, Sachs.

Into the holy state of matrimony. in which she
continued-until 'the boar ol her departure foe
that bright and better land, always baptising
;her home with her smiles. and adding to its
beauty and Interest by her industry and taste.
Now nothing remains to comfort her mourn

Hon, of the benefits she conferred, and the ex
ample other devoted and dutiful Her ma.
ny virtues, her kind and cncerfbi disposition,
and her noble hospitalities had endeared her to
all who bad the pleasure of her acquaintance.
To her husband, parents and friends Is also left
the blamed consolation that what God death is
well done, and that He will in His own good
'time mete out to them the strength they need
in the hour of their great grief.
On Wednesday, the 10th Inst., her death was
ermmemorated in a a:misting) way, her body
with a lovely smile on its countenance was
borne In a beautiful casket, upon which was
inscribed on a silver platee ; " Prudle id. Pow
