Mr. Li"CitN Doty met witli a singu
lar accident last Sunday while attend
ing the funeral of Mr. Simon 1moiu.
His hrfrse became restive arid backed.
The rear end ot a runner of the sleigh
came in contact with a stuoe solidly im
bedded in the .-round, or with rough
bard froien ground, which broaght tt to
a sudden stop or bait, and caused it to
rear where the shafts are fastened, to
F'jcli a drfgree that the occupams of the
f leigh, Mr. Poly aud bis wife and Miss
Joty, fell out backwards into the snow.
It is a source of congratulation tbat no
' .tie was hurt, and that tio breakage of our yM gcbool Entertainment, may
the sicigh or harness tookjdace. j fenow Ut done with ,he jiroceedH
Thk Roister, siuce the adoption of j thereof, I subuit the following state
the new Couetitution, is constitutionally nent
orposed to the ground hog. It says it I
is nut a constitutional pig. It is hoped
that the constitution of the pig is not!
thereby impaired. If it is possible fur!
it to entertain a prospective view of the
fuiur.-, it no doubt is now indulging-
notwithstanding the Rf'tstcr and its
thru! iu pleasant anticipations of an
fc ' '. . .
irly spring that will revivify old
constitution. The pig, while it has no
voice above
action proci
a grunt or a squeal, by its
iaims a renewed constitution
once every year. It is in fact the most
f rouiiuent constitutional animal living.
Come, neighbor, you should take back
wbat yon said about the constitutional
ity of the pig, anj give it the recogni
tion that it is entitled to. It has been
your annual favorite for twenty years,
and to thus dismiss it isn't nice, partic- !

About 11 o'clock on Saturday biht
an engineer of a freight train eastward
bound, at Lia train neared the upper
end of the Patterson yard, saw what be
supposed wts the body of m man lying
between the rails of the track on which
his train was running. He was too
nrar to the object to stop the train, and
thirty cart pasted ovar it. On lis ar
rival at the station he informed em
ployes of the road of bis worst fears.
As soon as possible tbry hastened to
the spot designated, and there the sad
spectacle of the mangled body of
man met arid increased their trembling
expectation. An inquest was held over
the body on Sunday. From the fact
that on bis person was found a railroad
ticket from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to
New York, and a check No. 195 for
a trunk to the same place, a verdict
was reached that he caaie to Lis death
hjr falling from Cincinnati Kipre?s, due
at 8:50 P. M. The trunk has been de
spatched for, and when it arrives the
iavestigcti.ro will be further continued,

near
Sjnt B.rhara, California, January 10, 1371,
chronic h.lUmatkn of the brain, Jacob
Staiiituugu, agea 4J years, monius anu
12 days.
Mr. Stambaugh was a representative of a
business class that owe nothing to accident
or circumstances, and became a business
celebrity am ..ng us by honest effort an l ap
plication of business talent. AVe cannot
retrain from noticing the pivotal events of
his b.liincss life.
lie as born in P(rry comity, this State,
on the 4th of September, 1S1. In the
Spring of the yer MH he came to Milllin
town, a penniless youth, to clerk for Kobert
Barnard. His genial ways nude him a fa
vorite among customers at the store, and
his prompt attention and fidelity to ths in
terest of his employer awakened the heart
iest c. u.mcU'Ia'i'iu of the business com
munity and ail who hive the discernment
to discover merit among their fellow-men
Iu tne summer of lS.j'Ja chylera epidemic
that prevailed in Mifflin claimed Mr. Bar
nurd as a victim S'anilianjrh was immedi
ately offered a situation in .Mr. Hammond's!
store, ai'd as soon as tlio in.iii'igement of
the Uarnard estate permitted he went
thither.
In the Spring of 18-3 a co-partnership
was formed bet ween James M. Selh rs, hs'j.,
Dr. James Crawford aud himself, to w hom
Mr. Hammond otd his store, and the new
firm was launched under the mercauiiie
management of Stai.ibaugh, who hi 1 de
veli'ivd into a dii;:iitied nun, a skill: ul mer-
I chant, ftnd a dealer of hoiiett consummate
tact. ot long after the organization ot
this firm the health of Dr. Crawford became
impaired, and be withdrew from it. Mr
Jacob Suloiitf entered the firm in his place.
The business place of the firm having been
purchased by Mr. Joserh belt or J. a reiuo-
) val became necessary. The Crystal Palace
was erected and business o pened iu it by
Messrs. Sellers, Slambjugh aud Sulout on a
scale previous to that time uukuoua iu
this county, Mr. Stambaugh being the mas
ter spirit in the mercantile department.
The times were propitious, and with the
skill of a master, a fortune was amassed.
Coal oil sculations and fraudulent Com
panies ia that oleaginons fluid were at
lhat time holding bigh carnival. Citizens
of Juni'tta were attracted bv their glitter,
and many of them to-day can attest to the
unsound and ephemeral character of the
organizations of those days.
It can be no reflection on Mr. Stam
baugh' business sagacity to say that hw
was ensnared in the meshes ot a bogus con
cern, and lost the great bulk of hu hand
some forliii!-. Such being the case, he did
not pine over his loss, bat know ing bis intiat-j
abiiity for i .'ilimale business, he deter
mined to :.lrieve his misfortune iu the very
country the oil country the business ot
which had b -en so tearf ully perverted from
legitimate channels. He accordingly, iu
lSoi, sold his interest in the Crystal Palace
Store to Thomas J. Frow and Thomas U.
Parker, and went into the oil business in a
legitimate w-.y at Petroleum Centre, Ven
ango comity, Pa. There he became an ex
tensive oil roducer by boring tor oil, aud
also engaged in the transportation of oil
through pipes. His efforts were crow ned
with success. The business proved remu
nerative to a laige degree. It is true Mil
ttin was not his birthplace, but all that was
near and dear to him was centered here ;
and when gpod fortune again came to him
he returned, and the second time formed a
firm for mercantile pursuits in the new
Ciystal Palace building. This was in 171,
the firm being J. and U. A. Stambaugh aud
S. Y. Shelley.
The first alarming symptoms of failing
health manifested themselves in thaKpriug
of tbe year 1x72. The summer of 111' year
