-Last Thursday's eclipse of the sun
arrived on schedule time, but the show
was somewhat handicapped by cloudy
weather. Those who were alert and pro
vided with smoked glass got several
good glimpses "whon the clouds rolled
by," but when tb.9 eclipso was supposed
to have been at its fullest the view was
completely obstructed by heavy clouds.
All things considered, however, the at
traction was a good one, it being abso
lutely free of cost.
Elk county is becoming famous with
thieo separate and distinct murder trials
on her hands. One of tho accused has
boon convicted and is awaiting sentence,
and two others will be placed on trial at
next quarter sessions court. The latest
murder to take place in that county was
last Sunday a wook, when in a drunken
brawl one Italian shot and killed a fellow
countryman, and probably fatally
woundod another. The perpetrator's
name is Putsy Barnia.
School will begin lu tho borough on
Monday, August SO, instead of first Mon

amendment to that law children up to 16
years of age are compelled to attend, the
age limit having been extended from 13
years. Unloss children are regularly
employed In some capacity they cannot
bu excused from attendance at school.

Buffalo. The train will leave Hickory
between u and 7 o clock on the morning
of the 2:id of August, (the exact schedule

The bill to authorize and empower
tho school directors and controllers of tho
several school districts to levy and col

Forty millions of bushels f wheat will

John Smull, living in the narrows
leading Irom Union line into Centre
county, while digging stumps, found a
purse of gold containing $200 All the
pieces were dated more than seventy
years ago, and are no doubt part of tho
booty of the famous robbers, Lewis and
Connolly, who roamed that soetion
about 1825.
Already there Is a dispute ovor the
boundary between American possessions
in Alaska and those of England, and it
will take the experts to got them out of
the snarl. Of caurse the laud in dispute
is that on which so much gold Is being
found now, but at all eveuts its owner
ship ought to be settled. It Is unfortu
nato that the gold regions are so close to
tho border.
There is a story from Chicago to the ef
fect that nine great corporations, headed
by the Standard Oil Company, are to
merge their identity Into one colossal
whole, with a total capital of $ 1,000,000,-
000' This report wasn't brought east by
a carrier pigeon with a silver ring on its
log, with tho wold "Pake" stamped on
Its wing, but it might just as well have
couie that way as any other.
The Alloona woman who made a broth
of mice und fed it to her child under the
idea that it would render her immune
from d'sease, is now under bail on a
charge of cruelty. Shakespeare says:
"Ho was a courageous man who first ate
an oyster," and we cannot but admire
the bold audacity of the person who in
troduced frog's legs as a diet. Aud cer
tainly she was a courageous woman who
first made mouse soup. Pux'y Spirit.
In the opinion of Mr. John W. Mack
ay, "if a uiau has a thousand dollars, a
good constitution and no w.fe and chil
dren ho can afford to go the Klondyke
regions." But, continues this bonanza
vetoran, "nothing is more uncertain than
gold mining, except that a majority of
those who engage in it are certain to fail."
Those, or similar words for danger sig
nals us to Klondyke hardships aud perils
have been dutifully raised in the press
all over the land will doubtless dampen
the ardor of many a would-be prospector.
City Solicitor Clark, of Erie, has re

ho claiming tho rebate which was in force
when the pavomont was laid, but which
was subsequently recalled by the passage
of an ordinance of councils. The con
tention, if finally decided by the Supreme
Court, nguinst the city, will Involve the
payment of about f 1110,000 in rebates to

A Hrnmrksbli. Cnrr of Chronic Hint..
In 1802, when I served my country as a
private In Company A, lf)7th Pennsylva
nia Volunteers, I contracted chronic di
arrhoea. It has given me a great deal ol
trouble ever since. I have tried a dozen
different medicines and several promi
nent doctors without any permanent re
lief. Not long ago a friend sent me a
sample bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and af
ter that I bought and took a 50 cent bot
tle, and now I can say that I am entirely
cured. I cannot be thankful enough to
you for this great remedy, and recom
mend it to all suffering veterans. If in
'ouht write me. Yours gratefully,

Always entails an immense loss to every progressive clothing house. No up-to-date
merchant will carry a stock of clothing from one season to another. His caUl "

Our stock of clothing is a little larger than it should Le at this time. Price cutting
is the only sure means we know of to roduco it. We thus make what we roally be
