Lock Haves is not exempt from iniquity as
the following paragraph from the Republican,
most clearly indicates :
"It is said by those who are reliable that there
is more carobliup done in Lock Haven than
those of the uninitiated have the least conception
of. There ate places of resort, in our principal
thorouirh fares, where gentlemen (?) do congre
gate almost every night, and spcud the time in
such delightful games as faro, keno, and others
of the names of which we are iguorant. We
are endeavoring to get the facts in certain cases,
when wc will publish a full expose with the
names of those who frequeut these places. It
will uo doubt be an interesting paper lo tome.''
An exposure of some of the gambling hauuts
iu this town, might have the effect to relieve
some families of a great deal of distress. They
have been the total ruia of several families
in this place and if not checked eome more will
experience a similar fate. Ofiicerb of the law
evade an expose by the excuse that they are
not compelled to ferret them out, and then avoid
visiting the piaccs so they do not sec it, aud iu
that manner expect to escape taking a false oath
wheu making their return to court. AVe cannot
see how this can screen them, however, as every
officer lias been repeatedly told of some of the
gambling holes in this town, aud we do not be
lieve that an cvasiou of visiting the places will
exonerate them of perjury.
The borough council have concluded to econo
mize by having the street lamps put out at 11
o'clock iu the evening. This is giving violaters
of the law full sway to follow their vocation.
Until 11 o'clock our streets geuerally present a
lively appearance, and there is not much danger
of depredations being committed until that hour.
But now they cau have at least half a night to
operate iu the dark. It is a backward step,
The lamp posts, which were to be up iu parts of
the town where there are none, have uot been

was a pretty heavy spriukliug of old fogyisin in

There is no bid yet for the vacant column in
the Daily offered "for sale cheap." Advertisers
must think it a "dear" column with all the
cheapness attached to it, aud no doubt they arc
right. Although the editor is making a tre
mendous "blow" to draw somebody into his net,
advertisers geuerally understand just as well as
he does where they reap the most benefit from
advertising, and for that reason they are slow in
applying to procure that "ctaciy' column. "
It is said that the best method to bring a town
on a rctrogadc move is for its citizens to con
stantly complain that there is no business done,
and everything is dull. But when the chief offi
cer of a town ruus about the streets complaining
of a heavy borough debt, anil that its paper
is only worth 40 or 50 els. on the dollar, it
will have u better effect to drive away capitalists
than anything wc know of, nnd the tovrn wil
siuk much quicker into obscurity.

lac park ou Market street, which a year or
two ago was expected to be made a beautiful
ornament to our town, is still left untouched,
and an early completion of the original design is
stopped, and the gales are still left ajar for cows
to revel iu the grass, which is growing uicc.y. A
few weeks ago a resolution was passed in the
council to have the gates lastened, but uo effort
has been made towards repairing them. In fact,
it looks as though a majority of the borough
fathers were somewhat partial iu cleaning and
fixing up Market street. While the east side of
the railroad has been cleaned nnd looks neat, the
west side is left untouched, the part included.
Wc hope it has Lot been done intentionally, aud
that a disposition ou the part oi couucilmeu will
be shown to give the whole street an overhaul
ing, aud fix the gates at the park to prevent the
cows from destroying its beauty. The gates
(should be cither closed or else swung on heavy
square columns, as all gates for such pur
pose should be. It is rumored that, in the
case the gates arc not soon repaired aud public
property preserved from decay, some of our citi
zens will ask the court to interfere and make the
burgess and council obey the wishes of the peo
ple. Bkeaklk Bi hnei). Ou Thursday night last
the coal breaker of Messrs. Swcuk fc Co., of

mob of men numbering about seventy-five. The
watchmen were driven away, when the mob gath

the match. When the lire was at lull rage sixty
shots were tired. This act of incendiarism is
considered the most deliberate that has yet oc
curred iu the coal region.

Commendable. At the time contributions
were made to purchase musical instruments for
the Sunbury Silver Concert Baud, the members
proposed to play on Decoration day and like oc
casions gratis for the citizens of Sunbury. They
have fully complied with their contract thus far,
but on Saturday last their music was so extra
ordinarily fine that it touched the hearts of the
Committee ou Decoration, and they very gener
ously made the baud a donation of thirty dol
lars. Such acts of genorosity will, uo doubt, be
appreciated by the members, who arc laboring
hard to become more proficient.
The Steam Fire Company Xo. 1, of this place,

Made Himself a Leo. Mr. John Spcarse was

years ago. The limb was amputated below the
knee. Lately he sent to the city to procure an arti
ficial limb but he says that the "pateut concern"
didn't suit him, and therefore he went to work
anil manufactured a leg himself, which he now
uses and which he says answers a much better
purpose than any boughtcn arrangement he has
ever seen. He is proud of his own hnndiwork

How to Keep from Gettinci "Skinny." If
any ouc wishes to grow fleshy, a pint of milk
taken before retiring at night will cover the
scrawniest bones. Although nowadays we see a
great many fleshy females, yet there arc many
lean and lank ones who sigh for the fashiona
ble measures of plumpness, and who would be
vastly Improved in health and appearance could
their figure bo rounded with good soii.l flesh.
Nothing is more coveted by thin women than a
full figure, and nothing else will so rouse the ire
and provoke the scandal of one of the "clipper
build" as the consciousness of plumpness in a
rival. Iu case's of fever and summer complaint
milk is now given with excellent results. The
idea that milk is "feverish" lias exploded,
nnd it is now the physician's great reliance in
bringing through typhoid patients, or those iu
too low a state to be nourished by solid food. It
is n great mistake to scrimp the milk pitcher.
Take more milk and buy less meat. Look to
your milkmen, have largc-sixcd, well-filled milk
pitchers on the tabic each meal, ami you will
also have sound Cesh'and light doctors' bills.

Tax Collectors. The County Commission
ers, on Wednesday last, made their selections of
tax collectors for the townships aud boroughs in
the county. For Sunbury W. T. Rickey was
choseu bv Messrs. Reitz and Hcnrie. No belter
selection could have beeu made to reorganize the
old Court House Ring. Mr. Rickey is pcculiarlv
fitted for the work, having been a worker with
the old "ring ' for many years, aud having
made it his study, for be is uot inclined otherwise
than to obtain a livelihood by his wits, and
duriug cainpaigus was always ready to do more
talking than any two men iu that party. Mr.
R. is a thorough Democratic gentleman, aud will,
by this appointment, aid the Democratic party
considerable. Having long since studied the art
of finding out other peoples' business, this posi
tion affords him au excellent opportunity to pry
into cv. ry man's political opinion while gat tiering
the taxes. Of course lie bad to be rewarded for
his rat amount of labor for the Democratic party
iu the past. This is in perfect keeping with
the Ring to reward its blatant members . first,
aud as tax collector is probably more suitable
for Mr. Ricky than any other business, we are
glad to note his appointment, and hope he may
secure bail on his bond at once, whether through
"matter of form," or for the good of the party.
It is, undoubtedly, a genuine modem Democra
tic appointment.

FOR THE AMERICAS.
To the F'ditor of the American :
The editor of the
Daily copies a card from your paper with his
comments, which, had they even the semblance
of the truth, I should pass it by. Whilst I am
unwilling to be drawn into a personal contro
versy iu which the public cannot have the
slightest interest, I deem it simple justice to my
self to point out the injustice of these misrepre
sentations. I am not the author of the "card"
quoted, neither had I any knowledge of its ex
istence uutil I read it iu the Daily. As to my
volunteering a loan of two hundred dollars,
which has been paid iu full only quite recently,
and that cntireiy by printing and advertising,
money must have been more plenty with me then
than ever in my life since. A certain note of
fourteen hundred dollars In bank, whose en
dorsers went on mostly through my influence,
had to be renewed ; two hundred dollars had to
be paid or the note go to protest. Does the edi
tor of the Daily forget his gratiduda and his
promise when he found I had the money and lie
was able to borrow it ? lias he forgottCL how
and when lie promised to pay it back I
Again, if the editor of the Daily will put him
self to the same trouble the attorney for his op
ponent did, he will discover that the $140t of
liens entered against the writer for his benefit,
were the first aud only encumbrances on pro
perty belonging then in fee simple to the very
one whose endorsement he now styles worthless.
Will he tell his readers also that the only other
name that gave additional worth to that paper is
also a member of the Sunbury Fire Insurance
Company, aud nt present a director. Will he
tell his readers also, when he prints For.-Uer's
comments upon certain real estate securities
owned by this comnany, that the very first en
cumbrances complained of by Mr. Forstcr, were
those yet uusatislied, in which Dr. Waldron and
the. writer arc bail for J. E. Eichholtz. This
editor may not see fit lo acknowledge fnr rr
ceived of" the couikr he attacks. That he
would could not be expected, when he so easily
forgets the past. At oue time no one was more
anxious to solicit the patronage of this company,
and used as an argument, why he should obtain
the Lion's share, the necessity of aiding him so
be could relieve individual members of this com
pany who were kind enough to bail him. What
prompted his sudden change of feeling, we, of
course, cannot tell. Was it the suggestion that
as the Insurance Commi-sioner objected lo thesu
encumbrances, they must be renewed Then If
the Snnbury had to pay his claim to the plain
tiff's in these judgments or retain the amount of
his bill for security for personal bail until they
were paid. Did the equity induce h:m to ad
vertise his bill with hopes that an innocent pur
chaser might be found in his ilillicuities we
were his friend. Of course now it is proper to
abuse us. We havo labored hard and honestly
to bnild up n Fire Insurance Company in this
place. We certainly thought we had a right to
the honest sympathies of a man, as thoroughly
befriended in the past, it seems we were to be
sadly disappointed. We venture the assertion
that no editor has profited more by our labors
than this man. How he can reconcile his con
duct with common gratitude is for him
not for us. it is uo secret that through our
instrumentality and our means, of which he
made such liberal use for the past four years, he
uow controls two papers, the columns of which,
as he sees lit, he can constantly liil with the most
bitter and venomous attack against us person
ally. The cnterpr.se with which we are connect
ed, whose success would add to the crcCit of our
town, and whose ultimate failure must reflect
equally to its liiscredit. Wensk your pardon for
this infliction of personal controversy upon your
readers, but promise that uo manner of abuse or
venom shall induce us to be drawn further into
it.

TnE LIGHT RUNNING "DOMESTIC.
The "Domestir."
The "DOM ESTIC" is an exceedingly simple
machine in all its parts and processes. It is
easily nsderstooa ; familiarity with its action is
very quickly acquired, and it needs hardly any
practice of special skill in the operator.
The superior advantages obtained in the "Do
mestic" are mainly :
1. Light Running.
2. Quietness no Cams or Gear Wheels.
::. Perfect Stitch Double-thread Lock Stiteh.
4. Durability arising from Simplicity of Cony'
Btrnetion.
Absence of all Friction.
Great range of Work.
0.
7. Ease of Operation.
We do not say that the "Domestic" is the only
Machine worthy of public favor. We a J in it
there are soaie possessing real aud acknow
ledged merit; but we do claim, and are prepared
to demonstrate, that the "Domestic" has many
excellences that render it decidedly tmptrior to
any other JLtehin now before the public.
Let every woman, therefore, examine for her
self into its merits when she buys a machine.
This is an important purchase, not to be care
lessly made; one that will influence her com
fort, probably for a long time. With a 'Domes
tic" iu her possession, she will find her sewing
become a pleasaJwxercise of skill and taste, In
stead of a slow manual drudgery ; she will have
the time and strength to add beauty and elegance,
to work in which before she has been obliged to
content herself with bare utility.
