Murphy. Bernie- son of J. L.
Murphy, at his father's residence in
Wilcrx, Elk Co.. Pa., on Thursday
March 30th, 1882, of spinal fever.
Aged 11 years, 1 month, and 0 days.
Uernie was a bright young boy, and
was universally loved by the whole
community. He was always full of
harmless sport, and was a great'.fuvorite
among the pupils, of the graded school,
whose hearts are sad as they go to and
from their studies and hear not the
cheerful voice of Bernie.
He was taken to Erie County for in
terment, and theentire school marched
in a solemn procession' to the R. R.
station, thereto bid farewell to what
was once Bernie. Anil as they turned
from the sad scene, all eyes were filled
with tears, and hearts wefe ready to
break with grief.
A committee was appointed by tite
school to draft resolutions, which are
as follows:
Whkhkas, Our friend nnd school mate. Her
nle M. Murphy has been taken from our
mldn by an all wise Providence, therefuro
be it
Jtisnlied, That we hereby express our ap
preciation of him us a kind schoolmate and
faithful pupil.
Jlrxohed, That we deeply mourn his loss
and llmt we lender our heartfelt sympathy
to the bereaved parents and friends.
Jlcwlvetf. That a copy of these resolutions
be presented to the family.

The Twins.
One was old, and thin, ana! gray,
and like a trooper, or n sailor could he
swear. By this and by that wan the
burden of his talk.
No day so cold or warm but that lie
could take ofT an oath.
No one escaped hia ridicule.
No one escapes his grimaces.
No kangaroo could make move jes
t tires.
Thnt one gone tooth added beauty to
his figure.
His grumbling nnd his growling re
mind one of u she bear who has lost
her cubs.
Better come twenty times a day for
a letter for Smith.
Get out of my postoffico or I will
kick you out.
Thus and thus spake one twfli.
Also said he my conventions nnd
my railroads 1 run.
That rheumatic pain doth hurt me
sore.
And that Infernal "boy" of that
half-soled Advocate doth hurt
me" more.
And will the (here lots of swear
words) fool never cease.
O! my country, and O! my rheu
matics.
But 0! themorethtttdrivingartide.
For my soul (and thus I aAirm; is
sore oppressed.
For wltli till my honors,
Street Commissioner, "Little Boss"
and postmaster.
Shaii a " boy plague me?
By my faith but those squibs so full
of truth.
Do strike me sick sick und sore and
sad.
But this morn an Imp of a lad a
mere bit of a tow-headed lad did ask
me who owaed this postoftice.
As though it was not well known
that I own it.
Every letter great and small, from
lover, or lass ; from man or woman
hath my name impressed thereon.
As plain as A. 13. C.
I " Little Boss1' do stamp them all
with my authority.
How doth my rheumatics hurt.. O!
my, and 0 1 my.
And yet, those little squibs do hurt
me more.
For twelve long years of sorrow and
pain,
In winter's snow
Arid .summer's ruin,
I have had this postofflce.
And wiio denies my right ?
And of nil the Republicans, 1 nm
the most.
My motto shall always be
One Don, one postotliee, and one
United countrie.
I'll not notice thoe little squibs but
keep mum,
And this little storm will soon blow
over.
And another year the delegate will
I cook.
For the " Little Boss'' am I.
No kicker shall ever vote with me.
No half-breed share delights divine.
But I'll keep the postoillce all the
time.
Then tiie other twin,
lie sail sometliing.
If the one twin was lean
.So was tills, the other twin not lean,
Hut full and plump.
,With paunch full and round
Willi walk majestic and grand.
He was not.a Republican though
But a Democratic man.
And possessed the brains of the pair
The other twin had ehe cheek
So cheek by brain
Or brain by cheek they trained,
And where one twin isa Republican
and the other a Democrat, great Is the
pair.
We'll write down the "boy" who
sits within the Advocate sanctum.
Until ineu shall hang their head
And say yum, yum.
No good.
We both will He In chorus,
And hie to the Democrat office.
And hit the "boy" hard,
For we are twins
And don't know which from to'ther
Although not suckled by the same
mother.
We are twins all the same.
Dixon, the County Superintendent
did we crush,
Didn't we though 7
In chorus" we did."
And now flatter than flapjack we'll
put the Advocatk man down on the
ground.
Yes and both jump on him,
We'll tell him ull about those stock
holders,
That will make him mad.
Good point, good point,
And that he was a Gieenbacker.
Another good poiut, another good
poiut.
Let's hit him hard,
And put all we say In the Democrut.
Said one twin to 'toher,
I've a grput big point.
That "boy's" father was a Demo
crat years ago
Good point, good point,
We'll hit the "hoy" on that'.
But even I twin and "Little Boss"
Did make much prophesy
Thnt that " hoy " could not curry his
Borough, nor his township und I lost
And do you know that cursed "boy"
did almost beat me,
The "Little Boss" ofail thecounty,
And did fly in the face of the
miirhty with hard knocks.
Until I lied, aud lied, and iinaliy
bent him.
Not bad
But egad I beat him
And although with hard work,
And much lying,
He was heat.
Aud thought I then he will stay
beat,
But he don't,
And O! und O!
My rheumatics,
Could ben r these pains with pleasure,
If that "boy" was in Jericho.
Thus these twins a worthy set,
Do frefand foam,
And founi nnd fret,
One lank and grey
The other fat
Until tiie people all do say
They'll married be

A Sad Accident.
MISS ANNIR WREN, OF SUGAR RUX,
ACCIDENTALLY SHOT HUB WON
PKHFfL FORTITUDE..
Lock Haven, March' 25. The
ExprenH of this even ing says: As soon
as the news reached this city this morn
ing that some one up Sugar run hud
been shot by accident, a reponerof the
Exprcta visited the scene, which is six
miles from this city, and gleaned the
following facts: At seveu o'clock this
morning, while a'' young man who has
been working for Samuel Wren, father
of the girl, was takiiiR his hut from the
nail, bis coat which was hanging under
it dropped to the floor and a loaded
revolver, which was in the pocket, was
discharged, and the ball entered be
tween the tenth and eleventh ribs, on
the left side, about four inches from
the spine, of Mr. Wren's daughter
A ii ii le, about nineteen years of age.
At 1:15 the attending phj siciuns made
an incision and attempted to locate the
position of the bull, but at the hour our
reporter left 2 o'clock its whereabout
hud not been discovered. Although
the case is a serious one, the phsieiuiis
claim that with good cure site will
shortly recover.
We were very much surprised to see
the young lady undergo the cutting
preparatory to tiie probing, which she
consented to do without .chloroform,
aud which wus done, probing and all
scarcely without a murmur.

Mf. Hoyt never liiid the guberna
torial bpe In his eur as most aspirant
for that position have. Against his
personal protest hN friends Urged his
nomination and he rehteianilv con
sented. In early years Senator Simon
Cameron had been his warm friend,
and had given evidence of his kindly
rctritrd, 'mi rcl v disconnected with nn'v
political trade. In after years whii
Senator ,T. D. Cameron,' succeeded
to the political Inhcrilitnee of bis
father, lie absented, through th'esolic
Itiition of mutual friends to1 the noml
tuition of Henry M. Hoyt for Gover
nor, though nt the last moment, and
a vcrv short time preceding the con
vention after the canvass hud been
made. l;n desired to sacrifice Hoyt to
the advancement, of his own personal
ends, and would have done so but for
the determined Interposition of Quay,
who wns stronger thon he. For vari
ous reasons nil of which nrc entirely
honorable. Governor Hvt has recog
nized on obligation to Cameron. lie
owed him no personal strength, but
was con strained to this course by the
regard he bail for the elder Cameron,
mm vuuy. 1 1 rem lie made sin error,
hut. like nil of his blunders, it was at
tributable to bis great heart and un
swerving friendship. He has ever ex
hilitci u dHtve-ltiou toencrllicr' himself
in me nervine or mends. Few men
tire so utterly regardless of their own
personal welfare, honor und emolu
ment os he. Whatsoever of blunders
ore chanrcahle to tin- administration,
may lie traced directly to the source
from which come all the ills which
the Republican party of this State Is
suffering to day; eversinco teeyounirer
Cameron assumed the reings of dir
ection the pariy in this State has been
thrown upon the defensive and it has
been obliged to go into each campaign
with an apology as nn argument. That
it has been successful does not. prove
that It has been right. Its victories
have frequently been, by every meas
ure of co-it, much more expensive than
one good through defeat would have
been. Last year with a Cameron can
didate, the peer of any man in the
State an excellent soldier and spot
less citizen triumph was snatched
from certain defeat through a divided
opposition and Democratic votes.
t his year there is a promise of a simi
lar campaign with its doubtful result.
How long can tho Republican nmlv
survive such manipulation? Can it
be traded and purchased into power
forever? Aud, if so, ore the results
worth the trouble nnd expense?
Now there is another scheme in the
programme, and again tho willing ser
vices of Governor Hoyt are sought to
pull the chestnuts from the fire. The
same Senator Cameron who has
been the author of so much
mischief to the parti1 seeks n new
lease of power. He is doubtful about
the political complexion of the next
Legislature, und a Democratic victory
might make such un apportionment
as would ruin every political aspira
tion of the sou of his father. In this
uncertaiiiity Governor Hoyt Is urged
to cull n special session of the Legisla
ture to fix up such an apportionment
as will make things reasonablecertain.
There can bo no other excuse for a spe
cial session, ami ((' Governor Hos t
yields in this last demand against liis

and tho public a great wrong and not
even accomplish the result anticipated.
We do not believe the present Legis
lature can bo depended upon to carry
out such a scheme, while the attempt
would almost certainly lead toa defeat

Mexico, it was founded by the Span
iards over bt)0 years ago. The dis
tinguishing feature of tiie Aguas Cal
lentes is its warm butlis. There are a
number in different parts of the State,
but the most noted are situated just
out of this city, some three miles from
its center, where t he water comes from
the earth at a temperature varying
from 2 to 30 degrees centigrade; be
tween these limits a satisfactory tem
perature can be selected. A separate
building is provided for euch bath,
where the water is from three to five
feet deep, bubbling up from a gravelly
bottom.uud lurge enough fora comfort
able swim. The overflow from these
baths is a good sized brook, passing
along the side of a long wide avenue
bordered with trees leading to the
city; making an attractive drive for
the inhabitants in a country where
flowing streams and large-sized trees
are so rare. Here, too, the washing of
the inhabitants is d ne, their clothes
and their persons; the naturally heat

zation of nature to muke up for the
scarcity of fuel. And during the warm
days can be seen the women and chil
dren, the men and the inaiuens, here
disporting themselves with an aban
don suggesting the primitive times,
before t lie conquerors forced their an
cestors into a semblance of clothing.

where a railroad crosses a gorge at a
great height. One night there wus a
furious storm, und the bridge was
carried away. The first that the Shel
leys knew of it wus when they saw the
headlight of a locomotive Hash down
into tho chasm. Kate climbed to the
remnant of the bridge with great diffi
culty, usiug an improvised . lantern,
and tho engineer's voice answered her
calls; but she could do nothing tor him,
and he wus drowned. Then she re
membered that an express train wus
almost due, and she started for the
nearest station, a miledistunt. A long,
high bridge over the Des Moiues Hiver
had to be crossed on the ties an easy
tiling to do in calm daylight, but peril
ous in stormy darkness. Kate's light
wus blown out, and. the wind wus so
violent that she could not stund. Ho
she crawled across the bridge, from
timber to timber, on her hands and
knees.. Hlie got to the Million bedrag

the warning, though she fainted im
