On Friday night of last week, at tho
eetuect null of A. J. Ilawes, Johns
town, Henry Anderson tho ', watchman,
shot and instantly killed a young man
named William ICerby,'iged niueteen
year. Kerbr, whe Lad been employed
about the establishment, was of a nr.s-
clivvious turn visited the place on the
ntghtof the shooting, and getting on the
roof, made a peculiar noise, which. , at
tracted th watchman's- attention, and
he was called upon to come down. Not
doing so, Anderson fired a shot into the
air, without the desired t!fict,sd then
Ered two shots at tbe man-.: Oue of
them took effect in Kerb)' head, kill
ing him.. The verdict of the Coroiir ;
jury was that Henry Anderson deu-r
mi tied ly and voluntarily killed William
Kir by. : Aud arson Las been committed
to j ail to await trial. Cambria Herald.
An exchange. says: The supreme
court has affirmed the judgment ut the
common pleas court t-f Northumberland
county ic a ease where Abraham Uen
dricksou obtained a verdict agaiust the
Philadel.h.a aiid Reading railroad com
pany for burning bis barn, the fire bring
kindled by sparks' from a passing engine.
The uiaiu poiut of the defence was that
the weather was extremely dry, and the
root cf the barn was iu a rickety uusuuud
condition, which was argued as contri
butory negligence O-i the part of the
owucr. Tne court held that this point
was unsound iu law, aud sustained the
judgment ot the lower court for damages
The barn burned was in Chillisquaque
township, along the line of the Caita
wissa railroad, owned by the Reading
Railroad Company.

Juniata ocxtt Nokmal School.
This well kuowu School will open
April 10th, 187C, uuder the manage
ment of Johu M. Gajruian, iu the School
House in MifJ.utowu, f or a term of
eleven week. A marked change takes
place in tbe sessious, as heretofore theie
have been two a Spriug and a Fall
session. This year there will be but
one session, as the examinations will
take place early in August, and tbe
Priucipal will not have the time to at
tend to other than the duties of Ins
office. Tuition for the term will be
the same formerly. Competent, ex
perienced assistants will be employed,
and it is the inteDtion of the school to
continue to merit its present standing
aa an educational ' motor. Normal
training will be even more practical
than hitherto, beeaose of the opportu
nity afforded tbe Principal to note th
errors in school management, fhe lack
of professional seal as well as tbe good
prsct.ees of the most successful teach
ers. It is hoped cur citizens will give
it a hearty support, and thus assist in
building up a school in our midst
whereby ur children may be educated
under Lome influences and parental in
spection. Thi scribe of the California Local
Record tells this of Lis experience in
the pursuit of knowledge: We al
ways thought that screens sometimes
found extending aerofs the back part of
a dressmaking shop were put there to
hide the coal-bucket, wood-box etc.,
from public gsze, and we, unthinking
ly, went behind one ihe other day to
spit. Such deafening yells! Such ter
rib'.e screams! We did not stay long

that it ra.pca over levera.jargeooxes,.;,, ,r.filI. weather i sickly, and
