For Associate Judge, lion. JOHN A. PROPER. Tor District Attornoy, 1'. M. CLARK, Esq. GET REGISTERED. All Republicans should sec that their names are on the lint of voters of their respective districts. These lists should now be posted at the places of "holding the election in each district. Youug men, who voted on age at the last election, especially should see that they are registered this year. Chairman IIknsel, has given up prnying. After that 81,000 Republi can majority ho believes there is "no lower deep." Get registered dow. To-morrow, 'September 3d is the last day. Newly naturalized citizens aud voters on age last year cannot vote unless registered. The Democrats nominated Conrad 11. Day of Philadelphia for State Treasurer at Ilarrisbtirg last week. It will bo a very cold Day for Conrad when Col. Quay gets through with him. The way to defeat the Cleveland Randall -Morrison - Curtis - Carlisle Hurd scheme for a uaw bill to reduce the revenues $40,000,000, and thus pave the way for Free Trade, is to .give Col. Quay more than Blaine's majority. Even Democratic Con gressmen can understand such figures. The Iowa Republicans have made all arrangements for running the Democracy through a threshing ma chine as usual, aud the performance will be given with rather more than the accustomed enthusiasm. The Iow& Democrats have got so used to that sort of thing that they rather like it. It is said that this is not the first declaration of the Democratic party on the subject of freight discrimina tion. That is no doubt true, because it can also no said that tnere is no possible question upon which the Democratic party in its search after power, has not made a declaration, and in many instances on both sides )f it. Hardly have the Administration tariff tinkers decided in their own minds that a reduction of $40,000,000 in customs duties is about the wisest course to put life into our drooping u'ndustries than they are face to face with the fact that the increasing ex penditure, with a decrease in the rev enue, is likely to leave but little sur plus revenue to dispose of. It was well enough to talk of the surplus Revenue before ehction, but now that the Democrats have the spending of it we hear much less about it. A STRANGE CASE. The following ccount of a rather sen na tional affair, takon from the Pittsburgh Cutnmercial-Gatette of Monday, la of con aidorahle local Interest owing to the refer ence made to a place in Forest county : One of the most mysterious cases which ever came to the attention of a Coroner of Allegheny county occurred yesterday, At 7 o'clock, in the mornintr Coroner - Dressier was notitiod that his Her vice were required at Armstrong, Penn town ship, which is within two miles of Vero na, an I about twelve miles from the city. His informant stated that a young ladv had died under mysterious circumstances after giving birth to male twins. The Coroner and bis cleik, Archie Berry. drove to the place. The death occurred at too houso or Mrs. Itoaanna Mason, a ro Hiiectablo old woman, and to make the af fair more sad one of the infants died while the inquest was in progress. The story aa near as could he developed via tlii- A .Imirrtimr Mr. 1 ,.., named Jennie Lames, became acquainted at Verona with a pretty young blonde about 23 years of age. She was modest and lady-like and an acquantance sprung up rapidly. ' Mrs. Laniea sympathized with her new friend aud when sue learned of her ox poctod troublo said sho could pass the try ing ordeal at the residence of her mother. The girl went there and gave the name of Fannie Squibbs, as near as Mrs. Mason could recollect. She was very mysterious in iter action, and beyond the fact that sho hailed from somewhere in the oil country, no information wax guinod from her. She never spoke of hor relatives or the young man who was tiie cause of her ruin until on her death-bed, when sho diod with the name of "mother" on her lips. She refused to have a physician through all her sutloring, and with her secret locked up in her heart sho passed out of the world to find a resting place in the potters liclii, if her relatives are not discovered. Her trouble came on Satur day uight and before morning two well- developed strangers had been added to the population of Armstrong, while tho mother lay cold in death. Two things which may possibly lead to her Idcnti lical ion were found among her effects. One was a photograph of her sis tor and another an envelope, which had contained a letter received while at Arm strong, addressed: "Fannie Squibbs." It was postmarked : "Pigeon P. O., Forest county, Pa." When Coroner Dressier arrived he Im mediately orderol an autopsy. Drs. .1. M. Hamilton and Ij. D. Clarke" performed the service and gavo the following certifi cate: "lont mortem held on tho body of a young lady lying at tho houso of John S. Mason, aged probably 2ft years, height five Jcet four inches, woiglit about 140 pounds, stout build, hair light brown, blue eyes nnd fair complexion. We find that death resulted from post partim hem orrhage; stomach and bowels examined and found normal ; no evidence of iutlam illation in any of the abdominal viscera." This certificate tliapoved of tho idea that anaboition had been committed. Tho first witness examined by tho Coroner was Mrs. Rosanna Mason. She testitiod t hat the plrl came to her house on August in. "I did not know hor beforo shecame," the witness Raid. "It was evening when sho arrived, accompanied by her daughter, Mrs. Lanics. iSho did not keep the fact that sho was going to lo contincd a secret. 1 told my daughter before sho camo that I wished sho would not bring her to iny house. I a ked her her name and ahe naid Fannie Park, anil that her husband was working in Oil City. She Raid her mother lived in the Pines. I asked her yesterday if she felt Hick, and she said it was hor bowels. She then took two doses of laudanum, both large. She had taken Rome laudanum the day before. She com plained at noou of being sick and two children were born through tho night. She aaid she did not want a doctor and 1 aided her. I have brought a groat many children in tho world but am not a mid wile. I go if people come for mo. I sent for a doctor alter the children were born. She Buffered terribly and diod between 12 and 1 o'clock this morning. She told me once sho was married to Park. I got a letter one evening at Verona, and it was addressed 'Miss,' I don't know the name. Sho promised to pay for mo taking her in and said she got money from her hus band." Mrs. Harriett Hill, who was present at the confinement, testified the girl acted as if she was crazy. "Sho threw up her arms and said, 'May God help me. Oh, mv mother ! I wish my mother was hero.' I asked her where her mother was and sho said 'many miles from here.' She told me she was married." Mrs. Elizabeth Mason testified that the girl told her her parents lived at Pigeon Postoiliee. Forest county. Johu S. Mation testified that he understood that the girl was married to Park but could not live with him, and that Park is an engineer in the oil country. Mrs. Mason's daughter, Jennie Lanios, was the next w ituess. She testitiod : "1 live in Verona and got acquainted with the girl about seven weeks ago. Fannie Squibbs sho said was her name. I met her at Mr. Maeder's house. I understand her brothers and this man paid for her boarding. I don't know the man's name. She said she did not want to bring dis grace upon ner parents ana went to board ing. I think her people live in Westmore land county. She told me she was not married, but did not confess hor true con dition. This young man was to pay us for ner Keeping, j cnu not see him and do not know his name. No one ever came to see her." The jury returned the following verdict : "Fannie Squibbs, aged 25 years, came to her death on the morning of August 30, 1885, at the residence of Mrs, Rosanna Mason, Armstrong, Penn township. Alle gheny county, after giving birth to twin babies, male, and from all of the evidence taken we, tho jury, lind that she died of post partim hemorrhage, and we. the jury, censure such practice of concealing such cases away from home." An effort will be made by Coroner Dressier to discover the gill's friends, but he has little hope of finding them. In all probability the remains of the betrayed girl will be consigned to an unknown grave. J. T.
