A number of boys of C larion, of

studeuts on the street, and assaulting
them by throwing mud on tbeiu, are
sime of the offenses charged The
normal authorities owe it to their pu

by taking a few cases iuto court.

This does not include matter mailed

son died yesterday morning, but it
was late when we learned of tht fact,

data for aud obituary such as the
subject is worth of, and are obliged
to defer It till next week. Funeral
t-rum row; interment at Newman
ville. The creek is pretty well filled up
with lumber, square timber and saw
logs from the mouth to Lawreuce &
Siiiearhaugh's boat scaffold. The
1 inuesta Lumber Co is the heaviest
producer in that line this season, aud
will have between three aud four
million of sawed lumber, besides con
siderable timber and logs. Collins &
Siggins are well represented, as are
also Collins, Darrah & Co., White

Smearbaugh, the latter firm's produce
cousiming m.istly of pine squae tim
ber. Noue had "untied" for the low

We are recept of the Railroad
Register, a new paper published in
Topeka, Kansas, of which W. R
Dunn, Esq., is one of the proprietors
The paper is devoted to the interests
of railroad employes in particular
and the advancement of organized la
bor io general, and starts out under
very favorable auspices. Its typo
graphical appearance could not well
be excelled, while its eight pages of
reading matter are as full of good
cheer to its readers as an egg is full
of meat, Oue thing we can assure
the Register's patrons of - they have a
friend iu Mr. Dunn whom money or
power cannot swerve from the princi
ples which he advocates.
Andrew Mi Coy, one of the high
ly esteemed citizens of Harmony
township, died at his home, near
Neiltowo, on the 17th inst., after an
illness of several weeks from rheuma
tism. Mr. McCoy was born in West
moreland county, this State in 1823,
and was therefore in his 70; h year at
the time of bis death. He came to
this county in 1868, and has been a
resident here ever since. He was a
veteran of the late war.and was buried
with military hnU' rs, the Grand Army
Pst of Tidioute, where the inter
ment tonk place, having charge of the
funeral. Besides a wife and four
childreu, one soo and two daughters,
he leaves a large circle of friends to
mourn bis death.
At this particular season of the
year most aoylhing on the subject of
tiih "goes;" hence the following: A
veteran Continental angler bus re
cently giveo to the world the result
of his observations on the effect of
the moon on the appetite of fishes
According to bim they bite tn8t free
ly during the four or five days after
the firft quarter, while from the third
day after the last quarter to the
second day before the new moon the
sport is at its worst. It is strange
under the circumstances, that al
though we have sun fih there is no
fish ueraed after the moon unless
what the Irish call the "maiden ray"
may be supposed to derive its title
from the chaste Diana.

Shanuun withdrew from the cobfer
ence. One of the things nf beauty and
which will be a joy forever, or as
long as the court house stands, is the
new vault in the Protbonotary's office.
Every grand jury for years past has
recommended a new and improv
ed vault, and uow it is a pleasure to
ko-jw that the county has one iu
which the most miserly and stingy
taxpayer cannot help but feel a sense
of pride. It is easy enough to con
duct public affairs :u a slip-shod, ruu-dowti-at-the-heel
sort nf way, and
"save money" as some would put it,
but when substantial aud lasting im
provements are to be made, the thing
can't be accomplished for nothing,
atid wben the poople have seen this
improvement we believe their verdict
will be ' well done."
Prof. Armstrong, who has labor'
ed ioditatigable fr the success of the
publto school library during the past
winter, was made happy no Monday
of this week by the receipt of a
check for the handsome sum of fifty
dollars, acoompauied by a note ex
pressing the hope that it might aid
io tho purchase of useful books fur
the new library. The check bore the
signature nf Andrew Carnegie, so we
guess Mr. Armstrong will have uo
trouble iu getting it cashed. There
isn't any doubt but that ourschouls
will uoanimously tender Mr. Carne
gie a great big vote of thanks for his
handsome gift. Furthermore, we are
of the opinion that his name will le

Ralph C'rosamire, who is tinJef
sentence of death fur the mtirr'er of
his mother, in McKesn county does
not seem to he in a very penitent
mood. He has asked for no minister
and is entirely indifferent as to his
future. The Bradford Era says, "A
few days ago he wrote a letter to a
man named Joe Briggs, who resides
near Farmers Valley. Io his letter
Ralph aked Briggs to do him a fa
vor, lie wanted the man to burn
one of the barns on the Crossmire
farm. The barn which he wished
destroyed is a horse staple; not the
stable iu which his mother was mur
dered. His object in the matter has
uot been known, but it is evident that
tho building contains something
which the matricide desires to have
destroyed. The letter is iu the pos
session of the Sheriff." The Mi Kean
Miner says that a thorough inventiga
tiou has been made of the bam in
question, but nothing has been
brought to light.
FRIGHTFULLY MANGLED.
Edward Durnell Is ('audit In a Mill
Miaft and his Kody Is Almost
Toru to Pieces.
An accident occurred at the saw
mill of Campbell, Riu & Co., on the
head waters of Salmon creek, four
miles west of Marieuville, in Jeuks
township, this county, about five
o'clock Thursday evening, by which
Eddie Durnell, a popular young uun,
aged about 22 yeais, lost his life io a
frightful manner. He entered the
lower part of the mill with the evi
dent iuleutiou of coming up the steps
to the first fl or. The main shaft of
mill is about thiee feet from the
ground aud runs at a rapid rate, up
ward of three huudred revolutions
per minute. There was no witness
to the sickening oocurreuce but it is
thought the uutnrluuate victim stoop
ed to go under the shaft, wben bis
clothing were caught, aud he was
whirled arouud the rapidly revolving
iron. When discovered his neck,
buck aud It Ft leg were broken, uud
bis left arm was torn from the socket,
and had evidently been first torn off
below the elbow, as the two parts were
several feet from the body. The only
sign of life that was discovered was a
slight relaxatiou of the muscles of the
body wheu picked up. Not more
lhau two miuutes before, he was seen
alive by men about the mill, so that
very little lime intervened between
the accideut aud its discovery.
The young mau'a pareuts live near
Edenburg, Clarion county, aud he
had beeu employed at the lumbering
caiup of Campbell, Ritz & Co. for
Some lime, being very popular with
both employers aud companions.
His shocking death cast a gloom over
the entire community. The remains
were couveyed to bis former home,
where the interment took place.
In Limbo Agaiu.
A dispatch to the Pittsburg P. t
dated Columbus, Ohm, March 21,
says: "In the arrest nf .1. H. Hargar
for several s.i all burglaries here the
police find they have caught a uoted
desperado of Pennsylvania. His
home is iu Tionesta, Forest couuty,
aud he has served four terms in the
penitentiary of that State. He is
said to have whipped many police
men, sheriffs, and deputies."
Tionesta is not Hi rger's home, but
he is pretty well known to the people
hereabouts, who were not aware, un
til uow, that he is "a noted despera
do," nor that he had licked many
policemen, sheriffs, deputies, etc
They say, however, tbat he can run a
good foot race.

A statistician finds that tho most "un
lucky day of the week," so far as acci
dents to human boings is concerned, is
not Friday, but Monday j Ki.71 per cent,
nf all accidents occur on Mondays, 15.51
per cent, on Tuesdays, KI.Sl per cent, on
Wednesdays, 15.47 per cent on Thurs
days, 18.38 per cent, on Fridays, the
same percent on Hal unlays, and 2,(i!l per
cent on Sundays. From these figures
it appears that Friday is not the un
luckiest day in this regard, but that one
day is pretty much as another. The
"lucky" character of Sunday is explain
ed by tho fact of little or no work being
done that day.

Punx. News.
It may not be generally known that the
Immense vertical wheel, or "Hurdy
llunly" being erected for tho amusement
of visitors at the World's Fuir is a direct
evolution of an idea suggested by a
Meadville mail described in these col
umns nearlv two years ago. Such how
ever, is tho fact. The original Idea was
for a giant swing. This was changed to
the form of a great wheel, having swing
ing rooms or cues suspended in its rim,
so that a person instead of swinging hack
and forth goen clear over. Tho Mead
ville man hasn't even received a pass en
titling him to a ride mi the tiling. The
Chicago folks will get the honor and our
friend will stay at homo and carve out
some other ld a. Tribune Republican.
