Death of David Beshoar, Sr.
David Beshoar, Sr., of Fermanagh town
ship, died way 12th, IbSO, at the home of
his son, David Beshoar, Jr. He was born
in the township of Fermanagh, Juniata
county January 23, 1W9, and was maimed
to Mary Kuble, who survives !dra, January
2-i, 1S31. He had ;ix sons t Andrew, Mi
chael, David, Solomon, John aud Peter, all
of whom are liviug, save Peter, who died of
pneumonia in February last. He also had
two daughters, one of whom was married to
Amos Stoufler, and is since dead ; the other
was married to Calvin Watts, of Fayette
township.
For a period of forty-nine years David
Beshoar, Sr., and his beioved wife have
lived together in peace, happiness and pros
perity, such as falls to the lot of few cou
ples in tins worM. His health, with the ex
ception of several slight attack, had been
uniformly good, nntil his last and immediate
ailment. He was se.zed with disease in the
tali of 179, and continued from the onset,
with intervals of relief and apparent im
provement, to gradually decline. Within
the last week of his illness his symptoms
became alarming and urgent, and on Wed
nesday afternoon, May 12th, death came to
his relief.
Mr. Beshoar followed the occupation of a
f irmer during his entire lifetime. For a
number of years he lived in Centre and Mif
llin counties, though the greater part o( his
Ii'e was 'petit in his native township and
county, on the farm on which he was born.
He as a man of fine common sense, great
ndutrv and frugal management. Although
lie began life in moderate circumstances, by
the exercise of his Stirling qualities, and
with the help of his wile, sons and daugh
ters, he acquire 1 large estates in Juniata
comity, so that each of bis children, now
living, possess valuable farms.
Mr. Beshoar was hi lily respected by his
fellow-citizeus as an upright, conscientious
man. But to appreciate his real worth, re
quired ac intimate acquaintance with him.
This ws our privilege. We always found
him kind, honest, lrank and benevolent.
Mcntallv, be was a man of more than ordi
nary iuteliigeuce and rttlection, and was
especially fond of informing and improving
his mind. His reading and meditation was
largely in reference to the Holy Scriptures,
with which he was very conversant. He
had a profound reverence for, and abiding
faith in the Christian religion, end was long
an exemplary member of the "German Bjp
tist" church. He had very clear and de
cided views concerning the doctrines of re
ea!ed religion, aud his Lops ot a blessed
immortality were well grounded. His read
leg was not confined, however, to the sa
cred writings ; but he w as also a close and
intelligent student of ancient and modern
history. Althou'-h the greater part of his
time was spent in agricultural pursuits and
in the studies referred to, yet he delighted
and shared in some of the manly and ex
citing recreations. His favorite sports were
those of bunting and fishing. He was ex
ceedingly fond of the latter, and npon oc
c.i.ions of that kind, his genial and manly
disposition would be exhibited in a marked
degree. But his lile's work is done. In
the fullness of time his summons came, and
he has gone
'To that beautiful land by the spoiler untrod,
Unpolluted by sorrow and care ;
It is lighted alone by the presence of God,
Whose throne and whose temple are there.
"Its crystaline streams with a murmurous
How,
Meander through valleys ot green ;
Its mountains ot jasper are rich in the glow
Of a g'.ory to mortal unseen."
At the vacant hearthstone an aged and
ftoiuewbat infirm widow will tnonrn the loss
of a beloved husband, the stiff of her de
clining years, and children will miss the
counsels and admonitions of a kind father ;
but they all have the happy consol ition of
knowing that his course through life as a
husband, a father and a Christiau, was with
out reproach, and that his hope of a blessed
immortality was strong and assuring. His
feeble frame now lies in its quiet resting
place in Free Spring grave-yard, in Walker
towrsiitp, there to remain uutil the Resur
rection morn ; his spirit has returned to God
who gave it. May we strive to imitate the
good that was in him, so that w hen the hour
of eternity 6trikes for us, we shall have as
few faults to answer for as he, and depart
as universally lamented.
A FRIEND.

"The intelligent juryman haa tmmortal
iied himself in Colorado. One of the law
yers in the case began browbeating a female
witness. The juryman in question was a
recklesa miner, who aeemed very uneasy as
the sarcastic lawyer continued to make the
Unshing witness feel uncomfortable. At
last the juryman couldn't Und it any
longer, and stood up, with one hand on his
hip-pocket, and yelled: Hi, thar, Mr.
Stick-in-the-Mud, Jack McCabe won't 'low
no man to talk to a woman in that shape,
not while he's round.' The Judge told
to it down and be auiet, and as he
obeyed, the lawyer superciliously said, Of
wLat weight to me is the opinion of an ig
norant juryman f ' 'That's what 1 thonght,'
roared Jack, jumping np and going for that
lawyer. It took all the tipstaves to arrest
him, and the counsel for the defence had to
be taken home on a shatter. Court was ad
iotirned till next week."

The new of the dreadful fire disaster
that overtook the town of Milton, araused
many of the people in this place, who
passed through such an ordeal, to live over
again, as it were, the experience of the
hours when Mifilintown was devastated by
fire.
It is an unpleasant fact to realitc, that
w hile thousands of people are houseless at
Milton, a large class of people are there to
rob them of such things as they saved from
the ruins, and to rob f rom such people as
escaped with their property fro the gen
eral calamity. It is an unpleasant fact to
realize that soldiers had to be sent to pre
vent the unfortunate people from being
robbed of what was left.

should be removed as rapidly as it becomes

There is a great weather prophet in Can
ada. The Norristown Herald speaks of the
great prophet as follows : " A Montreal pa
per prints Mr. Veunor's predictions for
forty days, and the actual weather for the
same time, in parallel columns, and shows
that he was correct, or nearly correct, H re
days out of the forty. And this is correct
often enough for a weather prophet. We
couldn't expect him to be correct forty days
out of five. A man would have to devote
a lifetime to the weather business before he
could strike that high average,"
The McVeytown Journal says: We have
received from Mr. A. J. North, Atchison,
Kansas, of the firm of Lukens Sl North, a
sample package of corn which he says was
raised by Samuel Page, a native of Juniata
county and a good farmer, who lives ten
miles west of Atchison. The corn was
planted on wheat stubble after the grain had
been cut July 1st, thus securing two crops
irom me same son in one season. .Mr.
North states that tho crops and fruit are
looking very promising. Lukens & North's
mil! runs day and night, and everything is
flourishing ia Kansas. We should be triad
to bear from Mr. N. more from frequently.
The Crawford Connty System will be
voted for and against, by the Democracy of
this county at their next primary election.
It will be a warm election among them, and
the membership will doubtless all be out,
for those who favor the system are in deep
earnest that the Delegate System shall go
under, and those who favor the Delegate
System are equally in earnest that the Craw
ford County System shall not come to the
surface. The Republicans have had the
system in use a number of years in this
connty, and are pleased w ith it to such a
degree that last year they amended it and
made the Chairman of the Connty Commit
tee elective by the popular vote of the
party at the primary election. Candidates
like it ; tbey go to the people direct for
their nomination, without having to run the
gantlet of a delegate convention.

is scarcely possible to keep it in print.

is so deserving of commendation as Mail's

the millions who have nsed it when we pro

It stands unrivalled. Those who are affect
ed with diseases of the scalp accompanied
with itching or irritation, find relief and re

hair is inclined to fall off, a moderate use of
the Renewer will strengthen the roots of
the hair, and preserve it, and if it exhibits
a tendency to turn gray it will restore the

From the Sturgis, Mich., Weekly t Mr.
John Brast, living in Sherman township, in
formed us a few days ago that his feet bad
been so terribly frost-bitten that he could
hardly stand the pains caused thereby. He
happened to think of St. Jacobs Oil
which he always keeps handy rubbed his
feet twice with the remedy, and the pain
disappeared entirely. He not only values
St. Jacobs Oil as an unexcelled remedy
for a great many other painful diseases, to
which mankind ia subject, but he also as
serts that it is really invaluable lor the many
diseases that horses and stock are subject
to, and which so often play havoc'with the
prospects of the farmer and stock-raiser.
