WIIY DID THEY FAIL.—The Dolby troupe
gave the people the most finished hailed and part
singing we have ever had In public in this coun
try. Mod into Paley cud Mr. Bentley are artistes
whose splendid and refreshing performances will
always be remembered In musical circles.
Nor %%maid we detract from the merit of all the
rest. They were excellent, and are only spoken
of next to the others because the production of
Pateys and Sataleys Is scarce In any country.
Why th's troupe were not successful financially,
s,,,ys the New York Standard, we have never
clearly understood. They certainly were music

—On Tuesday morning the ofilcers of the Second
National Bank of that place found to their dkmay
that their safe could not be opened. The lock Is
of the fancy comb i nation kind, and is a very com
plicated piece of mechanism. There was no evi
dence that the lock had been tampered with, but
it Is sni.posed it was In some way disturbed when
the safe was morel a few days ago. The officials
worked all day to get the safe open without mak
ing any headway. Some Philadelphia experts
were telegraphed for In the afternoon as a last re
sort. They arrived In the late train, and opened
the safe after a good (1.1 of work. We under
stand that the First Nut lomil Bank courteously
paid sonic check+ for its neighbor while the money
was locked up.

LOOK OUT FOR COUNTERFEITS.—Peterson's
Detector, of the 15th says : Merchants, railroad
officials, retail dealers, b ink officers, is short, all
who receive paper money cannot exercise too great
care at this time against counterfeits. Never
was their so much bogus currency In el:cut:Alen,
and seldom have the efforts to get it In circulation
been so persistent and well in :tinged. The worth
less stuff embraces all denominations from the

Legal tenders and optional bank notes are alike
counterfeited, and right skillfully too.

The sentences, a few days since in Philadelphia,

TUE Ccenmon Council• of Cleveland has
lately taken n step we should like to see imitated
lu Allentown. It has passed an ordintnce wh
prohibits the &tie and display of indecent pnhii•
Cations, for the reason that they are "Injurious
and annoying, as well asdangerou., offensive and
unhealthy to the good moral, of our eh ix unf, and
especl illy the younger portion. thereof." This
action of the Cleveland city fathers Is worthy of
all. praise. Our city is also flooded with a similar
sort of containlnating publl •atlons, mftte further
attractive by seductive illustrations, which Ond a
considerable circulation among the young of both
sexes, carrying with them wherever they go a pes
tilence as fatal to morals as the miasma of a swamp
Is fatal to physical health. Their breath Is poison,
and their touch Vs death. It Is to be hoped the
public guardians of our city will turn their atten
tion to the subject at an early date. Such publi
c m dons ought not to be allowed to enter Into any
decent community, much less Into any Christian
city.
gIIDCKING ACCIDENT AT ARTILAND—A CHILD
BURNED co DEATII.—On Tuesday last nn acct.

she dropped the lid,whlch broke by the fall. She

BUILDING A.ESOCIATIONS. —The far/Wing
pion, suzgested by the Lehighton News to the citi
zens of Lehlghton'and Weissport, it appears to us,
would enahle braiding associations to be worthier
of their name. It is a good one and is worthy the
consideration of our sit izenc, as well as those of
any other place:—" Let the Association erect
buildings us fast as the dues paid In will warrant,
and offer them fors Ic to Its shareholders to the
highest bitiders,upon the same principle that loans
are offered In our - Association here at present, but
loan no money. Suppose buildings are eructed
costing from one to three thousand dollars each.
They are sold to the highest bidders, they giving
mortgages on the same, and assign their stock and
insurance policies as collateral security and make
their monthly payments in place of paying rent for
a tenant house. Thus a poor man could easily
acquire a home, where It would be impossible un
der the workings of oar present Association, be
cause as It Is now, a man must first own real es
tate to offer for security before he can even obtain
a loan. It seems as If such an Institution would
have a healthy effect upon the growth and pros
perity of a place. Let It be considered."
HOW TO OET RID OF A SCHOOL TRACI - DM
TOL' DON'T WANT.—The Shenandoah fl raid says
a young man bv the name of Whitaker has been
teaching school for some lime at Fowler's Patch,
where he has given almost universal satisfaction,
as he is gentlemanly, attentive to his duties and
the scholars under his charze havu made consid
°rabic progress. Ile found In the administration
of kis school but a single ditiLmlty and that was,
that some of the children would come with dirty
faces and hands, and desiring to correct this evil
a few weeks since, he told the scholars that here
after they would be expected to present themselves
nicely washed and combed and that those whodid
not would ho sent home.
Agreeably to Instructions a large majority of
the scholars came the next morningand fixed up,
but a few did not and they were sent bone. This
dissatisfied some parties and a cock and bull story
was carried to the Directors of Mahanoy township
In which district the school Is located, and the
Board suspended Whitaker. This actlon,however,
did not suit the majority of the residents of the
place atll...ey held a public meeting and appealed
to she County Superintendent, Mr. s'ewlin, to re
instate him. Mr. Newlin appointed last Thursday
when he would meet the Beard of Directors and
the people, at the school housl, to examine. into
the coestion, hut on We Inesday night between 11
and 12 o'clock, Lae building was set on fire and
burned to the ground. There will he no school at
Fowler's . this Winter because there Is no school
house, and people who wish their children to go
with unwashed faces and hands can hive their
own way about It.
lurnovrNo.—W. 13. Troller, who broke Ills
leg at Earton, la, we are glad to any, getting along
very favorably.

Dr. John Detwiller, of Easton, assisted by Drs.
Win. Detwiller and Henry Heiler, of llellertown,
and Drs. C. H. and C. D. Martin, of Allentown.
The operation was performed on John Stabler, of
Saucon township, an old and respected citizen of
this county, who was troubled for a nunther of
years with pains in the abdomen, not knowing
what was the matter with him until a consulta
tion with and examination by Dr. John Detwiller
revealed the fact that a stone formation was in the
bladder. As soon as this was discovered, the
operation for its removal was determined upon
and actually performed by the physicians ahove
named, last week, resulting in the removal of
four stones, each of which Is of the size of au old
copper penny, and has a thickness of from three
fourths to one inch. This operation is regarded by
❑re profession as one of the most difficult and
skillful known to it, whret in fineness of perform
ance it is cq tailed by none. The patient is doing
remarkably well, and Ills awakening from the
trance imposed by the effects of annatlaties, dur
ing a period of about threeluarters of an hour,
was attended with no depressing or distressing
effects.
Title Is the third operation performed by the
same physicians within a period of two mntlis,
the other patients having been Daniel Gelsinger,
near Sprlngtown, and Mr. Wilt, at Centre Valley.
In the Geisinaer case the stone removed was ahem
six Inches In circumference and about inches
In thickness, having the form of an ordinary river
pebble. In the Wilt case the stone removed was
round in form, about Inl inches in diameter and
having projections on the exterior Ilke a chestnut
burr. All of the patients'are doing vet y well and
with the exception of the one on whom the opera
tion of to.day was.performed, are well and In the
best of health, whilst the patient of to•day prom.
to be squally no well In a comparatively short
time.

Some wee-ks coo Dr. Morris Beruhartii, the op
tician, who is at present practiclog In this city,
called at our olllee on huslness connected with ad
vertheing,and perceiving that I wore glasses, ached
permission to examine my eyes. Having exam
ined them, he gave me confidence in his skill as
an optician by pronouncing the defect in my vis
stun to be occasioned by " tremulous Iris"—ln ac
cordatice with the opinion of some of the most cm
inentuocculists of Europe, who at the (Vandalic
Hospital, in the city of London, examined my eyes,
about nine years ago. He looked at my glasses
(which I was well satl,fied with,) and told the
that he thoueht, after a thorough examination, he
could manufacture me a pair of glasses by which
I should be enabled to sec objects either at a dis
tance or close at hand, with such distinctness as I
had never seen before. The gla-ses I have been
ite the habit of wearing, were very powerful ones,
and I did not suppose that they could be much im
proved upon. however, I consented that he
should try his tkill, promising that if he succeeded
In Improving my sight so materially, that I would
make a public statement of the benefit I had de
rived therefrom.
After an exainination of lily eyes with all kinds
of instruments, and measuring the power of my
sight when unassisted by artificial means, Dr.
Bernhardt assured me that be could certainly make
me glasses that would do all he had promised.
On Friday afternoon I receiv,d the glasses, and
in accordance wi.h my" promise, I publish this
s'atement. I can see objects both near and at a
distance with far more clearness and distinctness
Lb in I ever remember to have seen in my lift..
As I write this I am using the glasses, and I nut
sure I never wrote anything with such ease as re—
gards my sight, or more weasure doing simple
justice. There is no perceptible straining of the
eyes, nor do objects appear unnaturally small us
they have always appeared to me through the
glasses I have been in the habit of using hithertb.
Distance doer, actually now lend enchantment to
my view, which It had refused to do before ; and
I am Indebted to Dr. Bernhardt for pleasure in the
use of my sight that I had not before experienced.
Want pleasure there Is in thus helm; enabled to
see. more distinctly, no one but those who have
cx crlenced such relief, ell] tell. .
I give this testimonial to Dr. Bernhardt with the
greatest pleasure, and hope It may be of service to
him and.to others, who may be Induced thereby
toes} y his skill; mid I add to it toy acknowl—
edgements for the gentlemanly and courteous
treatment, and hie evident anxious desire to Ina

asks the co.op:ratlon of the learned in science, to

for the purpose intended. Such has been the

SUICIDE !
The Body of Kelley Found in the
Lehigh.
From tho Betide Lem I'mKrehr or mood.),
Yesterday 'miming, about 11 o'clock, as several
boys were walking down the river road, one of the
numeer named John Middimek, wben opposite the
Rolling MIII stables, discovered what he thought
to be the body of a man laying against some rail
road ties In the river. Ile called the other boys
who after crod.lerahic contradiction came to the
ramc conclusion. N., Litvrt, however, was made
to find out positively whether the statement of the
boys was true, tmtil about 7 o'clock In the even
ing, when a boat was procured and an examina
tion made by Mr. Johnson Yerkes,wbo ptonouneed
it to be the body of a man. Another boat had by
this time arrived, and by the - united efforts of
Messrs. Johnson Yerkes, Paul Fritehe nod John
Ryan, he was pulled into one of the boats and
brought ashore. From the appearance of the body
It is supposed to have been in the water a consid
erable time. Ills dress consisted of red shirt and
drowera, white overshirt and Ft.lekinge. He bud
eltin whiskers and a moustache. About 0 o'clo:•k
Judge Stein empanelled a Jury wh.) viewed the
body preparatory to Its removal to the lock-up,
where a preliminary inquest was held by Deputy
Coroner Robison. The regular Inquest will be held
to-day by Coroner Thomas. The prevailing opin
ion Is, that the remains aro those of Roily, who
disappeared so mysteriously from the Pacific
House about two months ago.
VIE BODY IDENTIFIED
Information has been received at the REols•
TER (ace that, as soon as Patrick McGee beard
of the discovery of the body in the Lehlgh,he pro
ceeded to Easton and Informed Kelley's brother of
the affair, who came to Bethlehem and Wentlffei
the body. The body has been sent to Bernard Kel
ley's, In Philadelphia. The Mite and bruises ou
the body help to involve the affair in mystery.
Thus while the Times, of Bethlehem, was giving
out the charitable opinion that Kelley was a
" humbug' and a fraud," the body of the poor man
was undergoing decompwition le the cold waters
of the Lehigh, within pistol shot of its office.
The Deputy Coroner Sunday evening impaneled a
jury composed of Win. J. Palfrey, foremln ; John
son A.• Yerkes, John I'. Ryan, W. Henry Leibert,
Paul Fritz and Henry Bodson,who adjourned until
N1011(1115', at nine o'clock. The body was taken to
the station house and Monday morning under the
direction of the Deputy Coroner, Dr. B. F. little
held a postmortem examination. 'The Jury ren

As was to be expected the disclosures of the
finals mu In referen..e to those t 80,000,creatcd con
s .der .ble excitement In the county, last week, but
there was a singular diversity of opinion upon
the authenticity of the statement, that gave us
mingled feelings of disgust, encouragement and
amusement.
Some people Bald they knew that something of
the kind would some day leak out and they were,
therefore, prepared to he shocked, but they did not
expect to be . startlcti with such heavy figures at
one Jump. They agree with us that the most
thorough Investigation should he made; that
the affairs of the county have been under the
control of the Democratic party so long that
I=ll
When the Democratic majority was upwards of ,
two thousand they felt their power and became
reckless as to what they did. 8o great was the
assumption of authority, so fh mly did the Demo
cratic Ring Masters believe themselves secure In
their offices, that they feared nothing from the
weak minority and ruled the county with such a
high hand that a Republican hardly dare say that
his head was owa.
The excuses put forth, at drat, by those who
have the tinny management In hand, showed
Pretty clearly that the mine had been sprung upon
them before they had a chance to
MOLT) A csrcus
upon the subject and determine upon concert of
action. Some of the bravest ridiculed the expo
sition and assure., those around them that It was
only a joke.
One man said that the county taxes were never
all collected In each year and that for the past ten
r fifteen years the uncollected taxes had accumu
lated to such an amount that they now summed
up
EIGHTY TIiOUSAND DOLLARS
ills auditor remarked that he did not know the
county paid interest on the outstanding taxes.
This was new light to the speaker and he said,
" Well, I must go home."
In other quarters It was contended that It was
only a clerical error, one that was likely to occur
anywhere, under any management, and that this
little amount of eighty thousand dollars was only
lost sight of through a slight mistake. To those
accustomed to handling such large sums the
amount may seem trilling, but to those who work
for thele daily bread the figures seem large enough.
If a clerical error. (Ore sounding name for it),
alma d cause a mistake of eighty thousand dollars,
how are we to know that there have not been other
clerical errors, which would serlously alter the
complexion of our county finances I Who wants
to tom money to a governme t nt that thinks It of
no consequence to make a clerical error of eighty
thousand dollars I We have no doubt that Doss
Tweed, and Dick Connolly, and Oakey Hall would
be glad to bide themselves behind a clerical error,
but the people of New York can't set, It iu that
light. "Clerical error" shows gross incompetency
and that Is bad enough to warrant a change in
lacers. The gentletneu who preach up this ver
sion of the affair are very considerate, hut
BLIND IN THE FAITH
arc those who declare they " don't believe a word
of it." We know that there are honest men who
think the county finances have been managed In
the most honest manner. They know that they
have had some good, substantial, honest old men
in °Mee. But sometimes men are so honest them
selves that they never suspect dishonesty In any
body else and do not keep so sharp an .eye on
things as they otherwlBo would. In this way hon
est. ball directors, In numerous Instances, have
been known to place Implicit confidence In their
c ashlers, or clerks, or tellers, and have failed to
d iscover any defalcations running through a num
ber of years until It was too late.
BEM
The figures reported last week In the Items Ten's
report of the Increase In our county debt,
will soon be verified, substantially, by the report
of the' Auditors themselves. The increase amounts
to a little more than $BO,OOO, and the clerical error
was commenced as far back as 1868. The present
Auditors have arrived at the correct figures repre
senting the county Indebtedness and as their power
is limited to the present condition of the county
Indebtedness they can only tell us that the deb'. is
a little over EIMITY THOUSAND DOLLARS more than
the people were led to suppose It was. What was
done with the money—whether It was used Im
properly or for legitimate county porposesthey
have not the power, ut present, toascertalu. They
cannot open the old reports ; they cannot send for
persons and papers; they might listen to state
ments If any one offered to testify, but even then
they could present no official report upon the same.
Through the REHM= the people have been In
formed that the discrepancy exists. Now, will
they, knowing this, rest content to believe It only
an error which anyone would be liable to make
and of no consequence, whatever. Does not our
safety demand a thorough Investigation 1•
The Auditors have acted honestly and wisely In
this matter and they deserve the commendation of
every fair-minded in tn. Now let the pulpit) move
In the Interests of reforM.
WHAT THE PRESS THINKS ABOUT IT
Our ‘. patient" c aempirary, the News,says Just
about what was to be expected of It, considering
Its position :
It has been stated that there is a discrepancy of
$BO,OOO in the accounts of the Treasurer of Lehigh
county. Vague and generalaccusations have been
made In an attempt It sensationalism, though no
authority is given or any specific charge made.
We wait the publlCation of the accounts to see
If statements, which would Implicate well known
citizens In the commission of fraud,can be verified.
Until the public:Won of the accounts there can be
uo statement In the matter based upon aught but
conjecture, or worthy of consideration.
As the News Is sometimes a reform paper Its
conclusions are CIIIIOIIA.
The Friedensboto talks out Tautly in the in
terests of the people and rays It believes there is
"something wrong."
