ed that about $5,000 has been sunk

It is a nice theme for the flourishes
of rhetoric to dwell upon the univer
sal brotherhood of man and the sub
ject of free trade, but it is a more
practical theme to dwell upon the
fact that the affairs of a nation are
like the sffairs of an individual and
family, their necessities and wants
have first to be provided for before
the outsiders are neiped. xhe eyes
of the fool are t) the ends of the
earth and he neglects his home af
fairs, and so it is with free trade.

horse power cutter, a large cog wheel
burst, a piece of which flew out of
the barn striking John Rambler, a
hirelin?, who was on the horse power
driving, knocking him off the power
among the horses. The team was
stopped as soon as possible and the
man pulled from beneath their feet.
He sustained an ugly gash in his
head from which the brain oozed
when picked up. He was taken to

tiny presentation of this famous play.
The theatre will be found a useful
method of entertainment to every
member of every household. To pre

To an observer of the remarks and
acts of people in general, it is one of
the queerest acts of th average man
and woman to criticise other people
for this and that, things probably
that the critics could in no way ac
complish half as well as the people
they criticise. One of the mist com
mon things to criticise is the sermons
of preachers, which is quite amusing
in the light of the fact that the crit
ics themselves could not preach a
sermon of any kind, if their ever last'
ing salvation were at stake. But
that is the way with tbe most of frail
humanity. They will talk about
things they know the least of.
Some man whose name is not at
hand, deliberately stole a hitching
strap from the brille of Letl Ren
ninger s horse that was ted to a post
along Main street, last S iturd ty ev.
ening. A number of citizens saw
the transaction and soon the culprit
was in the hands of tbe law and be
fore J ustice C. B. Horning. Ren
ninger was lenient and settled the
case upon promises of reform given
and payment of costs Tbe horse
that was untied, never noticed that it
bad been unloosed, but if the beast
bad bcten started, there is no telling
what injury might have been done
by a runaway horso drajjing a
ouggy.
The explosion of dynamite that
was being thawed at a fiie at Bixler's
water station on the railroad east of
L9wistown on the 22nd inst, killed
Lawrence Moist of McVeytown, and
seriously hurt eleven other men at
work there. Eight of the injured
are Italians and are known by num
bers. Thsother injured are Thomas
Rigen, Howard F. Smith. H. Wade,
colored. A correspondent being on
the scene shortly after tha disaster,
despatched as follows to tho Attoona
Tribune:
Just how the explosion occurred,
will probably never be known posi
tively, as Moist, the man in charge ef
the explosives, is dead. The most
correct surmise and statement of the
facts are to the effect that he had
some powder and dynamite thawing
at the fire, and ha i them too close,
when tbe heat fired them and they
exploded with the above result. The
force of the explosion was terrific,
the noise being heard in town.
Moist was badly burned and cut
and bad one leg blown off between
tbe knee and ankle, and was other
wise cut up. He only lived about an
hour after the accident
Wade, tbe colored man, had his
arm broken and both legs torn open
between the thigh and knee. It is
thought he cannot survive.
Smith is cut on the face, hip,
shoulder and body and is seriously
injured.
Ragan has several bad cuts and
flesh wounds on his limb3 and body.
Two of the Italians are badly injur
ed, being cub in almost every portion
of the body that was exposed to the
explosion.
The other six have cuts and bruises
that are not carious, if properly cared
for.
Smith, the injured man, is about
the only one from whom information
could be seeured. His story is that
while working, he felt himso'f struck
on the back by something and heard
the explosion. He stat tsd to run, bnt
before he could get away was struck
several times more. After ho got
out of the way, he saw one of the
Italians coming acrosi the railroad
with the blood flowing down his face,
and saw the others lying around in
the vieinity of the explosion, and saw
the boot and foot of Moist hanging
on a bush with the boot burning
from the explosion."
Thomas M. Wallace, time-keeper
for the contractor, had the men
bronght to the Lewistown Junction,
where Drs. Harshberger, Clarkson,
Sweigert, Walker and Parcels render
ed such surgicel aid as was possible
in a short time. Arrangements were
made as quickly as it oould be done
to have the men sent to the hospitals
at Harrisburg and Altrona. They
were placed on the trains shortly af
ter 1 o'clock and transferred to those
institutions.

Mrs. Mary Hawn of Lewistawn,
bPungbt a suit against the Pennsyl

county court for damages sustained
in tbe boating business from the
abandonment of the canal after the
flood of 18S9. Judge Bailey decid
ed as Judge Lyons had decided in a
Perry county cas?, that such claims
arising from the abandonment of the
canal, can only be brought by the
otate. Tne individual cannot bring
such claims for damages. In another
case against the Pennsylvania Canal
Company, brought by Mrs. Hawn for
dam-igfs sustained in the boating

flood and the abandonment of the
canal, she reesived a verdict of $219
damage.
Tne Conservative vTeui an.
Writing of "The Conservative Wo
man," in February Laditt' Home
Journal, Ruth Ashmore, considering
her "as a companion," pays her this
pretty tribute: She is the woman who
witu her husband and her sons is the
best companion. She surrounds her
self, unconsciously with a spiritual
atmosphere that is a rest to the
weary, especially to the weary man.
She is not a b;srot. She is in sym
pathy with whatever work the man
may be doing; in many ways she may
help him with it, but when he has
thrown aff the trammels of labor he
finds in her all the'sweetness, all tbe
rst and all tbe happiness that can
be given by a woman who sets her
life so that it is 'like perfect music
unto perfect words.

Lester and a bride over 70 years of
age. Lester's daughter lives in
