A Splendid Piano
Linderman tit' Son's Gold Medal Cycloid
and Square Pianos rank among the finest
Instruments in the country. Their brilliancy
and fullness of tone is not surpassed by a concert
grand piano at double the price. Mors Instru
ments of this celebrated make have been sold In
Allentown, Lehigh and adjoining counties than of
any other manufacture. They can be used many
years and not become airy, as most other pianos
do, in only a few years. Come and examine them

A Sad and Fatal Aecidcat
On Friday afternoon last a shocking calami
ty occurred on the Lehigh Valley Railroad, near
the iron bridge, in thin city. Mrs. Harrison Butz
and her daughter were prOceeding down the rail
road ou their way to East Penn. Depot, to see a
friend elf in the 4:20 train. They heard the ap
proach of a locomotive and looking round, saw
that the engine was not on the track they were
walking on, and considering themselves safe, paid
no further attention to it, but when the engine was
nearly up to them the engineer blew his whistle
for a man some distance ahead, and the sound so
frightened Miss. Butz that she Jumped upon the
opposite track, wan caught by the engine, run
over and instantly killed. Iler mangled remains
presented a shocking night. Her bowels protruded
and one arm was cut otT.
)[lse Butz was only about eight yearn of age
and the event bas created n fund of sympathy for
her bereaved parents. We have scarcely ever
been called upon to chronicle so gad a calamity,
where it Woo, as in this case, apparently the result
of no carelessness upon either side, Her remains
were Interred on Sunday afternoon and were fol
lowed to the grave by an unusually large number
of friends.

The Model lVife
There is but one gond wife in the world,
and every man thinks he's got her. Happy the
man who could think so (and we doubt not there
are ninny such) after hearing Mr. Wlllet`s lecture
In the Court House, ou Thursday evening. Tak
ing for the'basio of his remarks the description of
a virtuous woman, written by King Lemuel's
soother, and recorded In the last chapter of Pro
°verbs, the lecturer showed that though fashions
change and sewing machines take the place of
spindle and distaff, the Model Wlfe—the crown of
her husband, Ih all essential .particulars is the
same to-day ns she was three thousand years ago.
The same law of kindness is on her lips, the same
rule of i n dustry guides her life, and the same
41 1 / 4 mantle of gentle charity ndds grace to every act.
She jars fears while the husbandman sleeps, a sort
of thing calculated to make the RENT day pass
lightly and pleasantly, we should think, and with
a Wheeler & Wilson we would back the Model
Wife to beat the devil at It airy day. The lecturer
dwelt strongly and forcibly on the necessity of
Industry in a well ordered housegehl, and spoke
of " gumption" as a great and a glorious thing.
The tact wlth'whiels the Model Wife will manage
the household affalri was well described and every
"part of the description we would heartily endorse
n o nd hold up for Imitation, except that dreadfully
uncomfortable habit of getting up In* the dark.
It is quite a shuddering kind of thing to thinkot,
risinplis the cold wintry mornings, and almost ns
bad for the worse half, who might possibly stay
behind, as for the victim, We trust for the sake
of odr lienediets that none of our young wires
will run this thing Into the ground.
We were very glad to see the Court House wall
filled. These lectures are for the good of a com
munity.. It Is not for the amount of recondite
Intellectual matter they contain that we would
extol them, but for the good Influence kindly.
words, kindly spoken, have upon the minds of the
people. No woman who listened to Mr. Willets
with the understanding ear, but would be better
for the thoughts his remarks would awaken, nod
she could not tint be proud of her sea, and satisfied
with her mission, as she heard them de.saribed Ili
the eloquent words of the lecturer. " She shall
Ply rejoice In time to come,"—nor at the polls, we
trust, not on the hustings—but in the husband
who protean' her turd In the children who rise up
and call her blessed. Her Ililf.loll Is the Home
Misolon and not her political works, but her works,
of charity and mercy are the "works that will
praise her In the gates." Great credit Is due to

citizens of Allentown with thIA treat, slid we trust

First-Class Hotel
rhe Allen House alterations and Improve
•ets are progressing. The table and appoint-

Allentown has not lately enjoyed a very enviable
reputation In the matter of hotel accommodation
and we are sure enterprise and liberality In this
direction will he rewarded by a liberal public
patronage.
Ices, Law Firm
Among our new• advertisements: •>,•ill be
found that of the new firm of Erdinnti 3 Oliver.
We congratulate Mr. Erdman upon hilt association
with cu eminent a member of our bar. Mr. E.
has earned himself a reputation for Industry and
talent, and we feel sure that the mweefis of the
new• firm will be heat . tily wished for by all who
know the gentlemen.
Musical . and Dramatic Entertaia meat
On the third of February, an entertainment
Is to take place In the Court House, the proceeds
of which, as we understand, are to be devoted to a
good and charitable object. The peculiar feature
of the entertainment will consist in the fact of Its
being given entirely by our own folks "at home."
The musical and dramatic ability that we have in
our community is first-class, and we are Rure the
entertainment will be a treat to those who are
fortunate enough to obtain tickets.
Itelioso its
The "Bible Class" taught by the Bev. .1.
W. Wood, of this city, has lately received several
w members. Tt Is one of the most I nstructlve
and improving "exercises" of the Presbyterian
Church. The interest shown by Its members, and
the reputation of the reverend gentlemen as an
Instructor, ease many members of other churches
to join, and as it is free to anyone, young or old,
who takes an Interest In tie Mudy of the Scrip
tures, we would reconnuFml young ladies and
gentlemen to go and see It. Possibly they may
lind good reason to " fall In."
Gel Rid of the F'l'anking Nut+lane,
Postunnster General Cresswell, w•e under
stand, has furnished blank petitions to all the
principal post (Mires, fur the abolition of the
franking privilege. If this is no, Postmaster
Diefenderfer will shortly have one at the post
office. Fellow citizens, go and sign It. Help
Postmaster Cresswvll in his efforts Input tire prrn
sure on to the M. C.'s, that this much abused
privilege may be abolished. If any one else but
our Most honorable legislators had been benefited
by it, the whole rotten system would have been
exploded long ago. Thin is not complimentary,
but It Is unpleasantly true, mid It does not affect
those upright men who have scorned the littleuesn
of this thing and opposed It In Congress and'out.
Killing 1o Murder,-
We have the authority of the Daily News
for a tow disilnetion in murder vases. A man,
woman or child may lie murdered without being
killed, as well as killed without being murdered.
We are very glad that this is so. It takes away
the horror of the thing and we shall hereafter read
the sensational account of a " Horrible Murder,
Mutilation, Dismemberment and Decapitation,"
with the satisfaction of knowing that after all It
may not have been fatal. Perhaps we shall have
the gratification of interviewing the victim. How
thrillingly interesting would lie, for instance, the
personal experience of a man whore head had been
not fatally crushed by a freight train. Go on
Daily. Von are doing well.
Map of Allentown
.•
Mr. S. A. Aschbach ha; ❑early completed
his new map of this city and its surroundings.
As a topegraphical'and property owner's map, It
surpasses anything we have ever seen. It supplies
a want apparent to all Interested In the rapid
growth and expansion of our city limits. It will
indicate' the location of the various streets leading
from the city for more than a mile around, and
may be the means of saving thousands of dollars
of land damages by Indicating now, exactly their
future location. The labor bestowed upon this
undertaking most have been Immense. in addi
tion to sheaving the location of every building,
vacant lot, name of the owner, locations nod name
of every street, it shows the elevation of the land,
embraced within the limits of the map, above the
laiel of the Lehigh River. This feature will also
be valuable to our city government, in extending
old and locating new streets, and In fixing proper
grades. That an undertaking of such magnitude
should have been projected by Ntr. As chbach and
prosecuted no nearly to completion without com
pensation or the prolnise of any other than what
will be received from the sale of this map, does
great credit to his public spiritedness, and should
be, and we have no doubt will be, liberally appre
ciated by our citizens when the map Is presented
for sale, by purchasing it. •
