Spring Excursion to Washing
ton via Pennslyvania
Railroad.
The popular demand for tickets for the
Pennsylvania Railroad's select excursions to
Washington has been so great and the dispo
sition of our people to visit the National Cap
ital is so determined, that the company has
arranged another excursion for Thursday,
April 12th. Of the entire seties this fcas,
without doubt, the most desirable date, as it
comes at a time when Washington is in the
first flush of the activity, social, political,
and natural, of early spring. The side trips,
too, to Richmond aud Mount Vernon, are
peculiarly attractive at this season.
The excursion will be run on the same
plan as heretofore. The train will be com
posed of parlor cars and passenger coaches,
and will be run through on a fast schedule.
The tickets will be good for ten days, to be
used going only on special train, aud to re
turn by any ragular train, except the New
York and Chicago Limited. A stop-over in
Baltimore on the return trip is permitted.
The special will run on following schedule,
and tickets will be sold al the rates quoted
below:—
Rate. Trains leave
Pittsburg $7 50 8:00 A.M.
Blairsville 700 7:00 "
Washington arrive 7:55 P.M.
—By the new license law the wholesalers
who took out license paid the County Treas
urer S2OO eaoh, the retailers in boroughs $l5O
each and in townships $75 each, with costs
amounting to $3 each. The Mercantile Ap
praiser assessed the hotels of this town under
the old law, and taxed them S7OO each with
costs, but it didn't stand. Part of the money
Kid into the County Treasury belongs to the
roughs and townships for road
purposes.
The dwelling house of Calvin
Neale, occupied Dan Cousins, at
Craigsville, was destroyed by fire
last Thursday, including all the
household goods and SIOO in bills

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
Ia Freeport on Sabbath morning of
last week, A!f. James and Harry Ir
win started to ruu a foot race across
the railroad bridge ever Buffalo creek
Harry's foot slipped and he fell head
foremost, a distance of about twenty
feet to the creek below, striking the
ice with his head and shoulders.
The ice broke which saved his life,
for had it been solid his neck would
Lave been broken, The water was
deep enongh to drown him. but he
maDaged to scramble out, and strange
to say is not seriously hurt.
Mr. A. P, Gorman, of McKeesport,
Alleghenv Co,, has been for years an
inveterate tobacco chewer, but he has
sworn off for A few days ago,
going to work he, as usual, took the
plug and bit off agoodsized mouthful.
Feeling some foreign substance in
his mouth he extracted it and was
horrified to find the end of a man's
finger, which had been cut off in some
tobacco factory and becoming mixed
with the tobacco h»d been worked up
in the plug. To say that Mr. Gor
man became ill is "patting it mild."
At New Castle, last Thursday,
Judge McMichael granted 22 licenses,
held 2 over and refused 5. Judge Mc-
Michael said: The Court has no writ
ten opinion to hand down, but will
stats that it decides there can be
made no distinction between hotels
and restaurants and eating houses;
that under the cew law restaurants
and eating houses are permitted and
licensed to sell vinious, spirituous,
malt and brewed liquors, the license
being same as granted the hotels.
The act of Assembly of 185G made a
distinction between hotels and eating
houses. This law was re enacled in
1867, and it provided specifically just
what eating houses should sell, limit
ing them to domestie wines, etc.
The Brooks law make bo such dis
tinction and this Court has no right
to say what shall be sold by those
who are granted eating house and
restaurant licenses.
The P. R. Ft. Co., proposes* mak
ing extensive improvements at Point,
and has purchased 150 acres adjoin
ing the picnic grounds.
In Pike county the deep snows
and severe weather forced the
animals and birds to seek sheter and
food in the very cteor yards of farmers
and others who live in the clearings
of that isolated community. It was
a common thing to see deer stealing
and feeding with ths cattle in the
barnyards, and pheasants fly from the
hemlock and tamarack swamps and
mingle with the chickens aud other
poultry to pick up such food as they
can get. One farmer discovered three
deer—a buck and two does —eating
with his cows the hay and cornstalks
he had thrown down to them.
A riot occurred at the limestone
quarries at Carbon, Lawrence Co., of
which John A. Logan, Jr , is man
ager, last monday, the result of a re
duction in wages, but the rioters were
dispersed and afterwards discharged.
The rioters were Italians and were
armed with knives, pistols and clubs,
and the nerve show* by young Logan
and Sheriff Warnock alone saved their
lives.
Thomas Colwell, a freight conduct
or on the Valley road, lost a little 3-
year old girl last Saturday evening.
The little one was playing near a
tubfull of scalding water, when she
acoidently fell backward into the tub,
being literally scalded to doath. She
lived in great agony until Sunday
evening, when death came to her re
lief. This makes tho third child of
Mr. Colwell's that has met a violent
doath. While living at Rosston. a
little child fell into a well aud was
drowned, while another one was
burned so badly by its clothes catch
ing fire that death ensued.
A coop of eight Antwerp carrier
pigeons were sent l'ror* Philadelphia
to Meadville last week, with instruc
tions to the coneignee, John McFar
land, to free the birds. He turned
them loose Sunday morning at 7
o'clock. In leas than two minutes
after the birds began circling upward
they took their direction and started
on their long journey to the Quaker
City. At 3-25 p. m. a dispatch was
received from Mr, Stein, one of the
owners, stating that the first 4 the
birds struck his loft in Philadelphia
at 12:25, making the length of the
State in 5 hours and 25 minutes.
Four other birds came in 20 minutes
later, and two young ones were still
oat. The time was remarkably good
considering that the day was cold
and murky, a chilling rain at times
prevailing Franklin Neivs.
—A new and clever swindle has
appeared in our neighboring counties,
and it is well to "look a leedle oudt"
for the rascals. An agent appeared
with a new soap, and in order to ad
vertise its superiority over all others
he proposed to put a box of thirty-six
three-quarter-pound bars into each
house. One-half of this box, or eigh
teen bars, was to be a gift. For the
balance he charged the merely nomi
nal price of sl, much less than would
have to be paid for the same amount
of any firßt-class«oap in the market.
The "gift" was in consideration of
paying for one half of the box, and
the hope that the buyer would fur
ther patronize these goods and use
his influence to induce others to do
the same. Purchasers were advised
to let it "season" a little before using.
To those who did not, it may be a
surprise to learn that this 27-pound
box of soap dried down in four weeks
to weigh only three pounds. As the
cost of this amount of soap, together
with the box, could not possibly have
exceeded twenty-five cents, aud as
the man disposed of several hundred
of these "gifts" in Williamsport, it is
not difficult to see that the giving
was not of the kind that impoverish
es.
—At the Congregational m eeting in the
Presbyterian church of this town last Mon
day morning, the Trustees announced that
the last of the debt of SIB,OOO, incurred some
ten or twelve years ago for enlarging and re
pairing the church was paid, and some mon
ey left in the Treasury. The Trustees then
voted to do what they have wished to do for
years, t. e. increased Rev. Oiler's salary to
S2OOO per year.
—Mr. Matthew Cunningham, of Jefferson
twp. one of our good old citizen s, was in
town Tuesday last, and seeing the tearing
down of the old Dougal corner building,
said that if he had all the money that had
been made in that old corner he could buy
out Jefferson township entire. Mr. Cun
uingham says he bought violin strings from
the late William S. Boyd, then keeping
store there, in the year 1833.
—Great excitement was caused in
Butler yesterday by the sight of a
man running towards the Diamond
at full speed. With visions of mur
der, burglary, arson or embezzlement
filling their minds, the officers and
several citizens intercepted the indi
vidual just as he was about to escape
When questioned as to his motive for
such hasty entrance to the town he re
plied: ''Release me instantly, I have
just read in the CITIZEN, that Rosen
berg is making and selling clothing
cheaper than any other man in But
ler.
Paradise Regained.
The hearing of the Petrolia liquor
cases took place, as per programme,
before Esq. McAboy in Butler last
Saturday.
Mrs Core and her counsel were
present; the defendants and their
counsel were present, but of the sev
eral dozen witnesses whose unntes
were on the subpienas, but teu an
swered to their names.
Mr. Alexander, the Constable, said
he had tried to do his duty, but
couldn't End the men, and as to one
party, said he "came within one" of
getting him: The troubles that the
Pilgrim encountered in bis Progress
to Heaven are nothing compared to
those of the Constable who presumes
to look for supposed drinkers of ille
gal ly sold liquor in Petrolia.
The case of Dr. Foote waa the first
taken up, and Michael Daly, Cousta
ble of Petrolia, was the first witness,
lie never saw or knew of any viola
tion of the liquor laws there.
. John Clark got liquor at Foote's
drug store, but only on prescription.
Casper Yough sad Jas. Gilbert the
same.
Jas. Aiken never got any liquor at
Foote's, and neither did Albert Gib
son, and Albert never drank any
liquor in Foote's back room.
Richard Doyle and Harry Wil
liams got liquor there, but only on
prescription and for sickness.
In the case vs. the Drs, Foster,
Jas. Aiken, C. Yough, W. P. Jame
son, R. Doyle, Isaac Roberts,
Jas. Gilbert, of Karns City, and Har
ry Williams were sworn, and neither
of them got liquor at Foster's, ex
cepting on prescription and for med
icinal purposes.
We did not hear the evidence in
"French Mary's" case, but are told
that nobody present criminated her,
and when Mike Daly said she was a
lady, as much of a lady as Mrs.
Core's counsel was a gentlemen, that
settled it, and the defendant's were
discharged.
"It was the worst case of "Para
dise Regained" that has ever hap
pened iu the county, and when those
citizens of Petrolia who fled the
threatening storm return to their
homes they will find the white winged
angels of peace hovering oyer the
once again Happy Hamlet.
The Danger Before Us.
We have already alluded to the
importance of housekeepers paying
more attention to the kind of baking
powder used in leavening their bread
This is a matter to which we cannot
draw attention too often, because it is
something which involves the most
serious cousequences to the general
body of maukiud. Temperance apos
tles tell us—and there is ample foun
dation for the statement—that there
is disease, both moral and physical,
in the intoxicating cup; and in the
same way there is disease, slow per
haps, but certain, in the leavening
agent which is employed in one half
of the homes on this continent; sick
ness, perhaps death, in the bread we
eat at every meal—slow poison, plac
ed there, too, by loving hands, by
mothers whose every thought is for
the health and happiness of their chil
dren, by wives whose chiof solace is
the life and comfort of their hus
bands. The victim of intoxication
goes to his fate with a full conscious
ness of what he is doing, but the vic
tim of the adulterated and poisonous
baking powder falls and knows not
whence comes the blow that struck
him. The certificate of chemists
with high-sounding titles have baen
read in confidence; the toothsome
cake has been given in generous abun
dance to the children; the daily bread
has been eaten in fancied security.
But all the time the poison has baaa
working its slow effect. There comes
spells of headache, loss of appetite, a
fluttering of the heart; the child is
seized with an apparently causeless
cough, the coating of the stomach
is destroyed perhaps; one of the vital
organs is rendered almost useless; the
kidneys are attacked with Bright's
disease. The health of the child is
irreparably broken down; the adult
becomes a chronic invalid. These
are the doings of the modern cheap
baking powders that are composed of
lime, alum, acids and other vile
things.
In view of these facts surely all
housewives should exercise the care
that is, we know, now exercised by
some in their selections of a proper
brand of baking powder. She who
does not do so, whether the neglect
is the result of ignorance or reckless
ness, cannot free herself from the re
sponsibility for the health, perhaps
life, thereby endangered. No house
wife need be ignorant of the quality
and composition of the article which
she uses to leaven her bread, biscuits
and cake. The official reports of the
government chemists, who are certain
ly unprejudiced, have been published
and show very clearly the quality
aad strength of all the baking pow
ders in the market. The Royal Bak
ing Powder, which is accessible at
every hand, is reported absolutely
free from lime, alum, phosphatic acid,
or any injurious ingredients. It is
further stated by the most eminent
authorities on food hygiene that food
leavened with it is more wholesome
than when raised by any other meth
od. Its use is therefore to be com
mended. It is to be regretted that no
other baking powder, when there are
so many in the market, some of which
will find their way into use, is free
from all of these substances. They
all contain either lime or alum. The
housekeeper who regards the health
of her loved ones should not only or

Tragedy in the Woods.
RENOVO, PA., April I—A report
has reached this point of a brutal
murder committed four or five miles
south of Curwensville, iu Clearfield
county, but the full particulars, owiog
to the distauce of the point from any
telegraph office, are hard to obtain.
Miss Lizzie Eastman, a young lady
teaching school in one of the farming
districts of Clearfield county, was
found dead in the school house last
Tuesday evening. Her tongue had
been cut from its roots and lay beside
her dead body. The school had been
dismissed as usual at 4 o'clock and
the pupils left their teacher alone in
the school house. In the right hand
of the dead woman was found a lead
pencil and on the floor near her dead
body was written in her handwriting
the revolting particulars of her death.
Two tramps bad entered the school
house after the pupils had been dis
missed. They overpowered and out
raged her, afterwards severing her
tongue with a knife and then fled,
leaving her for dead. She recovered
sufficiently to write on the school
house floor and had succeeded in giv
ing the above particulars with discrip
tion of her assailants, when she grew
too weak to write more, and died be
fore she was found.
The affair has created a great sen
sation here, where the young ladj
was well and favorably known. Miss
Eastmen was a remarkably beautiful
girl, but of a most fearle3S disposition
She had often been warned against
tarrying too long after school, as
tramps were not infrequent in the
neighborhood. She always laughed
at such remarks and asserted that she
was not afraid of being molested.
As soon as the body was found, a
posse was organized to go in pursuit
of the villians whohad murdered Ler,
but so many hours had elapsed since
the deed was committed that the men
made good their escape. The descrip
tion left by the young girl is sufficient
ly complete, so that the men can
probably be identified if found, unless
they have taken extraordinary precau
tions to disguise themselyes.
A young man who was engaged to
the unfortunate girl is almost crazy,
and swears that he will not rest until
ho has found the iieuds and slain them
both.
The parents of the girl are bowed
down wiih grief, and there is general
mourning among her many friends.
Her pretty ways and pleasant man
ners had enderred her to every one.

Ens. CITIZEN, Dear Sirs: —This
property after being used as a hotel
for more than half a century has been
sold and so disposed of as to unfit it
for hotel purposes. Nearly forty
years ago it was the "Bull's Head,"
and Adam Bepler was proprietor for
some four years. Then it was the
"Carson House" for eleven years
with James Carson proprietor Then
it was the "Rolshouse Hotel," with
George llolshouse proprietor for four
years and Robert Rolshouse proprie
tor for three pears. Then "White's
Hotel," with Nathan White proprietor
lor seven years. Then "The Garvin
House." B. Garvin proprietor four
years. Then the "Swan House" the
past four years.
In order to accommodate my many
friends and patrons, and the farmers
and public generally, I have leased
the "North Side Hotel" at 180 Feder
al street, where such "hosts" as Mc-
Donald, Kelly, Tinnemeyer and oth
ers have held forth. I will thorough
ly renovate and refurnish the old
stand and after the first of April will
greet my old patrons there, and be
glad to offer them my services. It
will be my pleasure to supply my ta
ble with the best in such quantities
as will satisfy the hungry and tickle
the palate of the epicure. My stable
is the best public stable in the city,
and my hostler cannot be equaled. I
invite the public to give me a trial at
the "North Side."
