R. S. L. Union.
For one man to die and thereby
endeuvor to shield a friend from crimi
nal prosecution is a rare proceeding,
and yet we are uot without tin instance.
Nathan D. Marshall, of Camden, N.
J., was the trusted friend of one Hor
iice Hummel, u defaulting building as
sociation secretary. They hud lived
together from boyhood, and were the
firmest friend. In the peculations of
his associate, Murshall was victimized
lo the extent off 3,000, but ut the time
of his death, the claim wus about sat
lafled by a Judgment. Marshall wa
called us a witness for the prosecution
uguinst Hummel, and the thought of
exposing his old chum preyed so heav
ily ou his mind that on Thursday
morn lug he commit ted suicideby sever
ing the jugular vein. His dying words
were: "1- couldn't appear against Pete.''
Hummel was convicted, and, sing
ular as it may uppenr Marshall's name
had been taken oft' the list of wit
nesses before his death. Of this he had
Dot been informed.
A Qucpr Child.
Mifflin bii ix, Union county, Is the
home of a young miss who never spoke
to her father. Entreaties, threats,
bribes and severe punishment alike
ha vo failed to induce her to hold any
communication whatever with her
paternal ancestor. When sent by her
mother to summon him to his meals
she will go to him, place her hand in
his and by endeavoring to lead him to
the house, makes known her errand.
She is a bright intelligent child, and
to auy one but her father is talkative
enough.
DEATHS.

J EN NIK,
Down where the willow Is weeping
C'lonu to I ho river's broad brenm,
With tllU tWBfct VlolPtS gletljllllg,
Jennie has gone to rest ;
Onus to hnr rest an the flower
KoUU iu bright petals at even ;
Gone to her rest as the star
Kadei In the glory of heaven.
Hpirlt no pure and no holy
8oou didst thou weary of earth.
Longing to fold thy bright plnioni
In the iiwoet land of thy birth.
Oh, I shall miss thee when spring time
Comes In Its beauty aguln,
And with its sweet scented treasure
Covers the hillside aud plain.
And wheu thejright golden Hummer
Coiuci in her glory once more,
Oh, I uhuli miss thy sweot presence
Miu thy light step on the floor.
But all In vain are yearning
And all iu vain are my tears.
Never again shall I greet thee
Not through the long comiug yean.
But when life's short dreams are over
Aud I (hall go to my rest,
Then once again shall I meet thee
In the aweet land ol the blest.

Concert.
Tlie "Great Comblnailon Concert,"
given ut the U rungcr'a Hull, In Cen
tervillc, on Friday night, February
2t, under the management of J. M.
Bennett, wus fur beyond tho expecta
tion of tlie large number in attend
ance. For such short practice only
two weeks) they astonished one and
all. The following was the programme
as played by them : Messrs. McKillop
A Brown the " Happy Pair,' in their
side splitting minlstrel entertainment
Fred. Pattou, the electric snare drum
mer; Mr. E. W. Newlands, American
song and dunce artist; Miss Magpie,
the merry momus; Mr. J. M. Young,
iu his Irish productions; McXearney
Bros, sang their original song, " Me.
Closkey close your Valve;" Mr. Ben
nett as raoto and comic vocalist and
female impersonator. Praise as to any
one individual would be impartial, us
one and all curried their different
characters through to perfection. But
McKillop A Brown and McXearney
Bros, ure hard to surpass. " McClos
key close your Valve' is a good song,
und "Jim" is just one of the hoys
that can take it all In, he being one of
the heartiest applauders in the audi
ence. A repetition of the above troupe
has been requested und they will again
appear before our people in u few
weeks. They will ere many days ap
pear in Ridgwuy und St. Mary's und
it will repay ull to go and hear them.
"Piso."
The following sensational Item . Is
from the Brook way vllle correspondent
oftheDuBols Courier; On Wednesday,
22d, our little town Was -thrown Info
great excitement by u report that
some raftmen hud discovered the body
of nn infant floating on the water in
Clark's pond. Several men started
for the described place and soon were
seen returning with .the little mystery
In a paper bag. 'Squire Greene placed
it iu care of R. A. McElheny, under
taker, until examination. The suck
was taken to his room and when
opened displayed a large well-formed,
but perfectly nude, infant. As is usual
in such cuscs some one is always ready
to point the finger of suspicion in some
direction, hut nothing definite is
known. It is to be hoped that the nu
thorities will not allow u little ex
pense to deter them from attempting
to trace out the mystery,' and perhaps
they will be the means of bringing to
light a hideous and unnatural crime.
Ridgnay Business Men.
(Cameron Press.)
Ridgwuy is a pleasant, thriving
town, but if we were to judge the place
by their home papers, we would say it
was the " deadest '' town on the lino
of the P. A E. road. We do not mean
to say that the papers are deficient In
any respect they are good, live jour
nals; well conducted, and zealous in
their efforts to build up the town and
develope the material Interests of the
county, but they receive little or no
encouragement from the business men
in the way of newspaper advertising.
In the Advocatk we find a few busi
ness locals, seven business cards, one
hardware and one livery stable advertisement-
In the Democrat there are
nine business cards; one dentist ad.;
one planing mill ad.; one hardware
store; one foundry, aud and one
cemetery advertisement, the remain
der of the advertising space being fill
ed with foreign advertising and legal
notices. Our Driftwood, Sterling Run
and Cameron neighbors give the Press
more advertising than the Ridgway
business men give both their papers,
and we find in one issue of the Drift
wood Gazette more home advertising
tliau both the Ridgway papers pub
lish iu one year. The businessmen of
Ridgway should simply be ashamed
of themselves.
New Words. The new Edition
of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary,
numbering 1928 quarto pages, contains
nearly 6000 new words or new mean
ings of old ones. These words range
over the field of science, medicine, in
vention, discovery, research, etc.. de
partments which In this age are con
stantly yielding fresh Ideas, require-
ing new words to express them.
lhat thev have not been hastllv
compiled Is evidenced by the accuracy
of and careful study given to their
etymology and definitions.

Burglarized
(Warren Ledger.)
The Warren postoffJce was burglar
ized last Sunday morning. They
effected an enterance through thebnek
door.and drilled a hole through the top
of the wife, with the intention of put
ting in powder und blowing open the
safe. But there being cans filled
with water In the safe, put there by
the builders for thepurposeof creutiug
steam In cuse of fire, and thus aid in
the preservation of valuables, they
were unable to explode the powder.
There were a lurge anount of stamps
In tlie safe which were wet by the
water, some at which weie saved,
while the remainder will have lo be
exchanged. The burglars succeeded
In gathering a trifle from the money
till of the postolllcc, and about seven
teen from Louis Wulkerman, who
keeps a cigar and stationary store in
the postoftice Burglars are mistaken
in supposing any large amount of
money is kept in the postoflice safe.
It Is deposited as a rule. Mr. Robin
son, the barber, wus ou his way home
at about four o'clock mi Sunduy morn
ing, and passing the postoifice noticed
two men inside. Supposing them to
be the clerks, he rattled the door, call
ed llicir names, nnd passed on. No
doubt It was ubout this time thut their
work was proven u failure, and they
left. Where was tho night watchman V

Mr. Hour spoke coldly and with
out apparent passion when Mr. Coup
ling's nomination wus read, hut the
Senators who listened were under the
most intense excitement. When lie
hud finished, says tlie Ney York Sun
correspondent, no oue in the chamber
seemed to care to reply in Mr. Conk
llng's defense but Don Cumeron aud
John P. Jones, and they could not. If
Senator Logan had been present, there
would have been a vigorous response.
Only one point in tlie speech reported
in the newspapers on the day follow
ing the delivery appears to have been
wrong. Mr. Hour did not liken Mr.
Conkling to Mr. Webster. He merely
said thut of ull the public men lie
knew, Mr. Conkling used words more
udi'oitly than any one, except Webster.
Mrs. Carrie Petrikin, aged about
sixty yeurs, dropped dead at her home
in Benezette, last Friday. She was
