Voters of 1840—Increasing.
In order that the locality of the
voters of 1840 may be more pla!aly
MS WE have revised our list, by
grouping all of any one Township or
Boroogb together, and putting the
Township* in alphabetical order in
tho list, with the Borough within the
limits of tbe township under the
MM. This will enable all to see at
ft giftoce in wbat pla<* the old voters

one hundred and sixty three Several
tow nab ipa nod boroughs have not as
yet Bent all tbe namesof those we be
lieve to yet live them. We
■ah to bear from them noon as con

increased to nt least 200.
Bat ooe county in the State we see
exceeds oar list, and that is Indians
county, which report* 171 old Tippe
euoe voters of 1840. Hut Butler we
believe will lead that soon. Similar
efforts we notice are being

p. m . —General Sheridan died sud
denly et Nonquitt tonight, a few mo
ments peat 10 o'clock. His death was
entirely unexpected by all outside
Ms household, and although the city
hnd settled down for tbe night tbe
•ewe at mice filled the streets with
people, and alarm '.jells rang. Details
of tbe laat moments are meagre.
Deatb resulted from the kidney trou

arrested, bat tbe symptoms only kept
from immediate collapse by the cou

steadily improved until la*t Monday,
when there was a halt
He was perfectly able to sit up,
eoarerre with members of tbe family
and read tbe proof sheets of his me
■oira, bat after that date no further
progress exhibited itself. The phy
sicians became anxious,but said noth
ing to alarm tbe family or public.
Tbey decided on consultation, and
Dr. Pepper was summoned from Phil
adelphia. Friday tbe patient began
to sink, and the family were then
first warned. Tbe Oeneral was ig
norant of tbe approaching crisis and
eontinoed cheerful. Mrs. M. V.
Sheridan was hurriedly summoned,
and by this almost tbe entire family
was on tbe scene. Today was very
warm, and patient restless. As the
afternoon approached dangerous signs
exhibited themsleyes and the doctors
did all tbey could to atay the blow,
bnt without avail. He sank rapidly
losing consciousness toward the
end, and died at tbe time stated. In

among the latest of the Democracy's

REV. R S STORKS denies that he
inlended to vote for Cleveland.
He says that he bos an abiding con
fidence in the Republican party's in
stinct of right, and in the ciyil wis

A clothing agent who was in But

be delivered provided Harrison and
Morton were elected, otherwise tbe

THE Protectionist Democratic or
gans find it hard to support the par
ty ticket on a Free trade platform,
but they are bound to do it. When
party demands it a Democratic editor
can wade through hot water and
swear it freezes his toes.

AT this time the only apprehension
on the part of those who are for Har
rison and Morton is that arising from
a feeling of absolute security. The
gains are great and the meetings are
increasing, but nothing should in
duce Republicans to slacken their ef
forts for an instant.

No mau in this county who is the

Cleveland in his message to Congress
la;«t December, recommecded that
wool l>e placed ol tbe free list. The
Mills bill now pending in Congress
places wool on the free list. The
Democratic platform indorses both
the message of Cleveland and the
Mills bill. In the face of this, so far
as wool is concerned, how can Dem

Arrested Kor Forgery.
PITTSBLBO, August 2.—11. E.
Pennypa- ker, a well known oil lease
broker ol this city, was committed to
jail to day on fourteen charges of for
gery preferred against him by J I.
Buchanan, of the National Transit
Company. Tho accused was arrested
a week ago, but was allowed to re
main at his home uudcr surveillauce
ou the strength of a doctor's certificate
that he was ill.
The case is a strungo one. Ou
each lease made there are the forged
signatures of the lessor, lessee, wit
ness and justice of tho peace, who at
the time was out of commission. The
name of the lessee is forged in turuing
the lease over to Penny
packer,and the name itself is assumed.
The informations charge that tho de
fendant forged the names of different
jiersons residing in Allegheny county
to fourteen bogus leases purporting
to l>e for 1725 acres of laud located in
Scott, Snowden nnd Bethel town
ships. lie sold these leases to the
United Pipe Line and received $1 per
acre or $1725 in all. These forgeries
were committed between May IMH7
and May this year. Detectiyo Per
kins learned about two weeks ago
that Pennypacker bad started for
Canada. Arrangements were made
to arrest him in that country when
word waa received that, ho had start
ed back home. On his arrival he
walked into the hands of the detec
tives.
Pennypacker is one of the most ex
tensive lessees of oil territory in
Western Pennsylvania. It was his
business to lease from farmers at so
much per acre. He afterwards sold
the leases to oil companies. Oue ol
the lessees which Pennypacker sold
purported to be from Hon. Henry W.
Murray to him Murray is a member
of the Lcgiidaturc, und on tho date
which the lease was made was in
Harrisburg. Several weeks ago, Mr.
Murray's attorney was at the Record
er's Office and found that the lease
referred to had been entered up. Ho
reported to Murray, who pronounced
it a foggery. It was discovered that
one (ieorge M Thurston was impli
cated. Thurston's name was an as
sumed one, adopted by a friend of
Penny[tacker, who is now in the
Western Penitentiary for another
offence. Over sixty instances where
bogus leases had been written up
were discovered. Tho name of Jus
tice of tho Peace Williams, of Castle
Shannon, was also forged. Tho ac
cused is of u highly respectable fami
ly, being a relative of Judge Penny
packer, of Chester county. He is
well known in the upper oil country,
having lived there for years,

SAN JOSE, CAL, July 27tb, ISBS.
EDITORS CITIZEN :
Thinking a short account of a trip
to the "Golden Gate'' might interest
your readers and at the same time
relieve the editorial brain this hot
waather by filling your columns, we
concluded to make a small contribu
tion.
Leaving Butler on the 8:30 train
wo arrive in Allegheny city in due
time, and, after arranging for tickets,
get our baggage checked through to
San Francisco, and spend ">the time
till train starts in "doing the town."
At 1:20 p. m., we leave on the P
Ft. W. &C. R. U. After n pleas
ant ride through a country familiar
to your readers we arrive in the
busy, bustling of Chicago at
*:2O a. m , next day, for breakfast
As our route is over the Chicago,
Bock Inland and? Paciffc R R., we
are informed that no through train
leaves until 4:30 p. m., which would
not be very gratifying to a person in
a hurry to arriye at his destination,
but as we are not "limited in time''
we take the opportunty to visit some
of the more important points of in
terest in the city. We took a street
car and took a run ont to the park,
a very pleasant place to spend a few
hours, and is visited by thousands
daily to get out of the heated, un
healthy air of the city. Then a trip
to the stock yards well repays the
trouble of going out to see the facil
ities for handling the thousands of
head of stock that are received and
discharged daily in tho greatest of
all cattle centres. Returning to the
city we visited, the "Cyclorama of
the Battle of Gettysburg," the fiuest
piece of art we have yet seen ; there
we spend much time in study and
contemplation, being carried back to
the sanguinary days of 61 to 05,
when just such eceues as were there
pictured were enacted in all their
horrible reality. But we will not en
large. At 4:30 p. m. we find our
selves comfortably seated in one of
the elegant chair-cars of the Chica
go, Rock Island and Pacific road, free
to all through pa&sengers, and are on
our way toward the setting suu. As
the country through which we pass
is comparatively level, there is
nothing of especial interest to write
about, except the fine farms and farm
buildings; miles upon miles of
growing corn, then, July Btb, almost
as high as the horses that were
drawing the cultivators that were
being run through them for the last
tjim; fields of fine wheat recently
cut and in shock, and broad acres of
the finest timothy meadows ready for
the mowing machine. As it rained
ail over the Mississippi valley hist
night we have a delightfully cool
ride and at 9:30 a. m., next day ar
rive at Leafenworth, the old and his
toric town of Kansas, 522 miles from
Chicago.
Here we tarry until 0.40 a no. next
day, and iu the meantime the places
of importance are visited, the priucipal
of which are the old fort, or more
properly speaking, the barracks, and
the soldiers' home. The fort is in
charge of the U. 8. troops stationed
there about two miles north of tha
city, and presents nothing especially
interesting, being made up of mili
tary buildings for officers and men, a
few cannon, and equipments for th«
soldiers stationed there. The Sol
diers' Hume, located three miles
south of tho city, is a more interest
ing place. Here are quartered, cloth
ed and fed disabled soldiers of the
late war who have been admitted to
the Home on account of inability
from wounds or disease to maki a
living for themselves iu tbe general
walks of life There are eleven buiid
ings, or wards, for the accommoda
tion of the inmates.
[Here follows a description of the
Home which space compels us to
omit.— ED |
At o. rn. next day we lyave
for Denver our next stopping point
j\t Lawrence, the town sucked by the
notorious tjiautrell aud his gang,
we meet the through train, and all
day long pass miles und miles of
the finent eorn and thousands of acre.n
of tbe finest wheat in shock, or stack -
ed in the field. This has been a fine
year lor Kansas and tins people are
happy gathering and garnering their
crop* On we go through the Went,
through Topcka, .1 unction City,
Abiiine, Ellsworth, O.tkley and many
other towns when night closes down
her sable curtains, shuts out our
view and wo retire for.the night.
Morning dawns- and* we are up
early. Wo find ourselves within fifty
or sixty miles of Denver, where the
prairie in bare and barren, except the
Buffalo trrartH, a short, hardy and
nutritious grass that grows on the
hiuh dry land of this section of tbe
country, Oil' to the south-went wo
nee Pike's I'eak towering its snow
capped head far above the mountain*
round, and feel the cool, fresh, bra
ciug air as it comos from the snow
banks plainly to bo seen in the
Rocky Mountains a hundred miles to
the west. On we go, and at Ha. m.
we all landed at the Union Depot in
Denver, the Queen City of the
Plains, miles from Leavenworth
and 1101 miles from Chicago, at an
elevation of 5203 feet above the sea
level. At B:.'{o we leave on the Col
ored a Central for a trip through the
mountains for the day, where is to be
seen some of the finest, most wild,
wierd and rugged scenery to be found
anywhere in the world. After a run
of sixteen miles wo reach Golden at
the mouth of Clear Creek Canon; wo
wend our way through the gorges,
the dills towering hundreds of feet
on either side, while the water ru-di
en furiously past in the stream bo
low, lushing itself into foam against
the rocks that ure in the way, mak
ing the ride interesting, indeed, to the
tourist who delights to look on Na
ture's wonders as here to be seen.
On wo go, up the canyon toward
Ooorgetown, the scenery becoming
more and more interesting as wo ad
vance; soon we come tA a canyon
I more rugired than any vot, the en
| gincs are pulling—it takes two of
i them to haul the train, six ears—and
| working up the steep grade, we
round to ami are soon going down
stream, apparently on the other side
of the canyon, but up grudo all the
time, until presently the train swings
to ihc aud on a bridge .''.oo feet
lor.g and about 100 feet high, passes
over the track below on which but a
short time before the train was mak
ing its way, forming a complete loop
in tire road, one of the finest pieces of
railroad engineering in the world,
and largest of t.lio four loops in ex
istence, there lining one in Southern
California, one in the Antics moun
tains, one MI Switzerland nnd this
one. After a delightful day among
ike heights, peak*, and Know bunks
of the mosmains, wo rebnrn to Den
ver, tired, dusty, nnd with an appe
tite equal to almost any amount of
good things ready for us at the hotel
w here we pat up. A good nightV
re-t finds u* ready to "do the town."
V. .• :;net B L. Pollock, Esq., and
his good wife Lilian, formerly of
your town, who made it very pleas
ant, and were glad to see any ouo
and hear from the rest. We met
several other friends from counties
around, who are located there and
contributed to our pleasure while in
the pi tee. Vlany things might be
said o* Denver, but we must hasten
on. A r 1:30 p m. we are seated in
a luxurious Pullman car fhat takes
us through to Ogden without a
change. The run from Denver
to Cheyenne skirls along the base of
the Itockies, aaihw-s have a splendid
view of the towering snow-r-apped
peaks to the west of us, as we wend
oar way through fine farms, made so
by irrigation, and at 5 p. m. arrive at
Cheyenne, whertf we are hooked
on the overland train and are soon
steaming on toward the snmmil of
the Rocky moun.taics. Two engines
are required to take the train up the
steep grade and in due time we pass
tbe dividing line at Sherman, the
highest point on this road between
the Atlaniic and the Pacific, the ele
vation being 8235 feet above sea
level, we retire for the night and
next morning find ourselves in an en
tirely different country than tbe day
before. Instead of green grastjy
plains as we had on the east side of
the Rockies. We are now in the
Wyoming basin with nothing to greet
the eye but miles of sage brush and
an occasional jack rabbit with ears
as long as those of a Butler couniy
mule. On we go during the day
through this barren land and toward
evening pass through Echo Canon,
pass the famous place where his Sa
tanic Majesty is supposed to have
spent his leisure hours climbing up
and sliding down the canyou's side
generally known as "Tbe Devil's
Siide." We follow the Webber River
and at 5:40 find ourselves at Ogden,
tbe terminus of the Union Pacific
Road 1200 miles from Leavenworth,
Kansas, and 1782 miles from Chicago.
We take a train for Salt Lake, the
city of the Saints (?) and are soon at
the Clift House ia comfortable quar
ters for the night, preparatory to a
jaunt over the town and to Garfield
beach next day.
Lest we weary your readers we
close and may follow in another and
note the remainder of our trip toward
the setting sun. Yours, etc.,

Birthday Parly.
Aug. 2, 1888.
On July 31st, 1888, the friends and
neighbors of Lewis Albert congrega
ted at his residence iu Franklin Twp ,
to celebrate his fortieth birthday. The
women having gone well prepared
with provisions, there was an exten
sive table erected, which was soon
fpread with all the good eatables that
the most craving appetite could de
sire, and after considerable over one
hundred persons had done ample jus
tice thereto there still remained a
sufficient quantity to have satisfied as
many more. Dinner being over the
assembly was called to order and Mr.
Robert Mcßride was chosen to act. as
Chairman and A. W Shanuon as sec
retary. The Chairman then called
upon Mr. Wm. 11. Jones to present to
Mr. and Mrs. Alberta very fine and
valuable lot of articles which their
many friends had brought to show
-that they did not care for self alone
but that they appreciated the family
as friends and neighbors, and to
strengthen that tie of friendship
which they trust will never be bro
ken. Mr. Jones iu a very able man
ner presented the presents, which Mr.
Albert accepted with many thanks to
the donors and assuring the friends
that he could not find words to ex
press the joy ii gave him to meet so
many old frwnds and neighbors. Mr.
Robert Mcßride responded and deliv
ere-d a fine address and urged upon
the people of this community to con
tinue these social gatherings as they
created u social and lasting friendship
toward each other which CAU never
be forgotten. The young folks then
favored the company with some vocal
and instrumental music which made
some of the old veteran dancers feel
so young that they got oiit on the
boardwalk and soon convinced the
rising generation that they did not
know much about genuine jig dan
cing, for there were Horno of tlie? old
timers that could do up ii hornpipe in
genuine TerpHiehorean style. After
having Hpent the afternoon in various
kinds of pleasure and enjoyment the
crowd departed to their several homes,
all feeling that the day had been
well spent; yet no one enjoying it
better than Lewis who said that it
made him feel like a boy Again to
have HO many of his old friends and
neighbor* to come to Hen him. If all
would attend Buch meetings there
would bo lews strife and discord and
more friendship and sociability exist
ing in society and therefore bo a great
benefit to the community.
The youug folks came in full force
in the evening and had a Social Hop
which was much enjoyed by all pres
ent, Thus ended Lewis Albert'.-)
fortieth birthday, which will never be
forgotten by hiui and will be long re
membered by ali that were present on
this occasion. SKO'Y.

at present and not coming strictly
within our purpose in gathering up
the old Tippecanoe voters of IS 10 in
the county, yet we comply with our
friend llosenberry's request and pub
lish his communication. We do HO
bscause w* know him to be a good
man and friend, and because wo al
ways favor free expression and lair
hearing to all worthy men and ob
jects. While Mr. I lone n berry is no
doubt conscientious in the way ho in
tends to vote this fall, yet of course
we differ with him, and believe (Jen.
Kick no better temperance man than is
(Jeueral Harrison, and aH the contest
is between Harrison, the Republican,
and Cleveland, the Democrat candi
date, we would rather see our friend
casting his vote now where it might
do the most good, as he did in 1810.
The It* publicans made an expression
in their National Convention on the
temperance qui stion and all signs in
dicate that it mint be through Re
publicans that we are to obtain re
form ', whether by prohibition or by
rooting out nl the licensed taloon Big
steps have been taken by them iri that
direction already. But we do not
purpose entering upon any argument
on the matter, a* we do no*, nippose
we could charge the mi id of our
friend even by so doing.
