The Day We Celebrate.
Before another CITIZEN shall have shed
its benign influence on this community,
another -'4 th of July" will have come and
gone.
There is no American with soul so dead
that the day we celebrate docs not awaken
in him patriotic pride and a sense of per
sonal responsibility. We may travel the
mM over and admire in other countries a
thousand things which we as a nation do
not possess, but we come home with a
grateful feeling that as a nation ws possess
some which are not to be found else
where. Xo other government on the foot
stool offers its subjects or citizens the in
centives, the opportunities and the gener
ally inspiring environment which we enjoy.
A century has changed republicanism
from a doubtful experiment to a fact which
jji | air i the deoUuy of governments every
where. In the van of universal progress
aiaulTnn, we C an gee that the irrepressible
tendency in all countries is along the lines
ef a larger distribution of political power.
Daring the time of our national existence
the complexion of every monarchy in
limy and several of those of Asia has
changed. The common people have as
sorted themselves and the repressive influ
ence of thrones and monarchies has been
compelled to yield. Inch by inch the bat
th has been fought, and in every instance
the people have won. Constitutions have
■npplanted despotism and legislatures have
baited the power of emperors.
little mors than a hundred years ago His
British Majesty, in the language of the
Inaty, "acknowledges the said United
States * * • to be sovereign aud inde
pendent Statea, and treat* with them as
iarh; and. for himself, his heirs and suc
cessors, relinquishes all claims to the gov
ernment, propriety and territoral rights of
the same, and every part thereof." We
then occupied simply a line of scacoast
from Maine to Georgia. Soon afterward
Lord Sheffield, in a book entitled, "Obser
vations on the Commerce of the American
States," declared that the West was prac
tically valueless—a mere wilderness of
waste land, which could never be reclaim

settlers beyond "cannot become coin
nercial" and would never increase, because
there was no way to get their goods to a
market.
Since that prophecy we have poured
■ernes the mountains and occupied the con
tinent to the Pacific. In 1803 we acquired
the Province of Louisiana, stretching from
the Golf of Mexico to the Pacific. In 1819
Spain ceded Florida, which finished our
Atlantic coast line. In 1845 Texas was
■naexed. In 1848 Mexico ceded territory
comprising Utah, apart of Arizona, Nevada
and California, and in 1867 we purchased

The Cronln Murder.
The Clan-na-Gael is a secret Irish society
which seeks to promote the Irish cause by
any means, however criminal. Dr. Cronin
was a member of this society in Chicago,
and by the freedom of his comments and
censure upon its management had made
himself very disagreeable to its managers.
Sudenly. some weeks ago. Dr. Cronin dis
appeared. and after much excitement and
inquiry, his body was found in a sewer,
and upon examination it was evident that
he had been murdered. The coroner'sjjury,
after hearing many witnesses, rendered a
careful verdict, in which they say that the
murder was evidently the result of a most
foul and prutal conspiracy, that a number
of persons were privy to it, and that certain
of them, whom the jury name, should be
held to answer to the Grand Jury.
The jury conclude their verdict with a
declaration to which every honorable
American citizen will heartily respond,
'•That in our judgment all secret societies
whose objects are such as the evidence
shows that of the Clon-na-Gael or United
Brotherhood to bo are not in harmony
with and are injurious to American institu
tions.
It is this system of secret conspiracies to
commit crimes, under the pretext of libera
ting Ireland, and the apparent indifference
to snch conspiracies, if not connivance with
them, which constantly check and alienate
the sympathy of honest men with the Irish
cause. Mr. Parnell's statement that he
had deliberately liod to the House of Com
mons in order to aid his purpose has un
doubtedly been of great injury to Ireland
among a people who are not secret con
sprators even for a good cause. Whatever
may be the faults of the English-speaking
nations, they persue their objects, even
when they are Revolutionary, openly and
frankly. It was in the town meeting, with
free public speech, not in a secret chamber
with passwords and grips, that Sam Adams
inspired the American revolution; and it
was in the open field, under the recognized
laws of war, not by assassinations and by
wholesale crimes that involve men, woman
and children in indiscriminate slaughter,
that Washington and his soldiers fought
for American independence. There is no
excuse for soiling a great movement like
that of local government for Ireland with
the basest and most repulsive crimes. It
is not enough for the leaders to disclaim
such crimes. They should denounce and
punish and prevent them. —Harpers Jf'cek

Two well known citizens of this country
were stricken with paralysis last week.
They were Gen. Simon Cameron of this
State, and Mrs. Lucy Hayes of Ohio wife
of Ex-President Hayes. Mrs. Hayes died
on Tuesday, and Gen. Cameron's death is
expected any moment. The news of the
death of Mrs. Hayes, will cause sincere
sorrow all over the land, for she was res
pected wherever true womanhood was ap
preciated. As the mistress of the White
House she baae herself with a dignity that
honored the station and when the term of
her husband ended, retired with him to their
former home, followed by the sincere re
spect of the nation. As wife, mother, the
soldier's friend and helper in organized ef
forts for the good of the race, she deserves
to rank among the first of American women.
Her age was 58 years.
Gen. Cameron died at his country place
near Mount Joy, Pa., Wednesday night,
ne was born in Lancaster county, March
8, 1799, began life as a printer, and was
afterwards editor, State printer, railroad
president and U. S. Senator.
The Fence Law?
The pamphlet laws for the last session
of the State Legislature will be out in a
few days when we will publish the new
fence law. At present nobody about But
ler knows just how the matter stands.
Since the above was put in type Senator
Showalter informs us that the late Legis
lature "did not pass a new fence law, sim
ply repeaied the Act of 1700, so now every
one must take care of his own stock."
The Act of 1700 provided for a five-foot
fence, and no damages for trespassing, but
on the other hand damages for injuring
stock if the fence was not there, and it
seems to be the only law regarding the
construction of fences on the books at
present.
But as it has been repealed, and as ths
the Supreme Court has declared the local
option law oflßßs unconstitutional,we can
not see that there is any law regarding the
construction of fences in force at present,
and take it for granted that everybody
owning stock must prevent it from tres
passing on his neighbor's property.
TH B coils are tightening around Martin
Burke, now in jail at Winnipeg for alleged
complicity in the Cronin tragedy. The
authorities assert that his connection with
the crime will be shown beyond the shadow
of doubt. One of his companions was ar
rested last evening, and the police liuvo a
clew to the other suspect, Cooney. A new
witness has volunteered important testi
mony.
THF. newspapers refuse to let the Bishop
family go. After the mind reader's death
the facts surrounding the autopsy were
dwelt upon with all the hideousness they
were capable of, and now the family closet
is being overhauled and the Bishop family
skeleton is being dangled before the eyes
of the public. It appears that the mind
reader was divorced in New York and for
bidden to remarry in that State. All the
same he went to Minhcsota and was mar
ried, and now his mother denies the right
of the widow to any of Bishop's estate on
the ground that the marriage was not legal.
Besides showing the Bishop family skele
ton, this shows tho eccentricities of our
divorce laws.
Little Rhody Goes Wet.
The people of Rhode Island voted last
Thursday to repeal the Prohibitory Amend
ment to their Constitution which was
adopted three years ago.
Tho vote then was: For the amendment,
15.113; against, 9,230, a three-fifths major
ity being required. Since then the Prohib
itory law has been practically a dead let
ter, saloons being carried on without re
straint, except in rare instances, when the
liquor was seized by the law officers and
poured out on the streets. Public opinion
was so clearly against tho enforcement of
tho Amendment that a demand for its re
peal grew up, and the Legislature at its
last session complied with this demand by
submitting to the people the question
whether the Prohibitory clause in the Con
stitution should bo repealed or not. Owing
to the enlargement of the voting popula
tion, resulting from the r> cent new Suffrage
law, the vote is much larger than
when the subject nyis last voted ou.
The vote of Thursday was, For Repeal.
28,498; against repeal, 9.853; the Amend
ment is therefore repealed by much more
than the three-fifths vote required.

county in fho State except Armstrong and
Greene. From these counties careful esti

returns from Armstrong county, received

Two Hangings in Penn'a.
PHIL'A., Pa., June 25.—Mrs. Sarah Jane
Whiteling was hanged this morniug in tho
corridor of the county prison. The drop
fell at 10:07 o'clock, and the body was
lowered and removed at 10:41. The wo
man's bearing throughout the terrible or
deal was a most remarkable exhibition of
fortitude and resignation to her fate. Dur
ing the entire morning she never for a mo
ment showed the slightest evidenee of
weakness, and frequently expressed her
pleasure at the prospect of ' meeting her
husband and children." The several phys
icians who were present at the execution,
and who have more or less frequently been
with the condemned woman since her in
carceration, expressed surprise at the wo
man's exhibition of calmness in meeting
her death, although they agreed in the
statement that she has at no time showed
any evidence whatever of an unsound
mind.
The crime for which Mrs. Whiteling suf
fered the extreme penalty of the law was
the deliberate poisoning of her husband
and two children with arsenic for the pur
pose of securing the small insurance which
she carried on each of their lives. The
Whiteling family 7 consisted of John hite
ling, the husband and lather, aged 35
years; Bertha, 9 years old; Willie, nearly
3, and Sarah J. Whiteling, the murderess,
who was two years older than her husband.
The husband died on March 20, 1888, and
the doctor who attended him gave certifi
cate of death from inflammation of the
bowels. On the 14th of April Bertha died,
and the same doctor certilied that she died
of gastric fever. Willie died May 2b, as
was supposed at the time, of congestion of
the bowels. Dr- Smith, who had attended
the two previous casos, refused to take
charge of Willie's case and another doctor
was called in.
i After the third death Dr. Smith's suspie
| ions were aroused that all was not right.
| and he communicated his suspicions to the
Coroner, who ordered that the bodies be
j exhumed. An analysis ol the parts show
i ed the presence of enough arsenic to cause
I death. The Coroner summoned Mrs.
| Whiteling before him and charged her with
killing her husband and two children. Af
ter some hesitation the woman admitted
that she had poisoned her children, but
claimed that her husband took his own
life.
MRS. WHITELING of Phii'a., was the first
woman hanged in that city, and the eighth
hung in the State. The names of the oth
ers were:—

WILKESBAKRK, PA., June 25.—Michael
Rizzelo, alias lied-Miko, was hanged iu the
jail-yard here this morning. His last night
on earth was spent iu prayer, lie refused
to partake of breakfast, taking only a cup
of milk, ind saying to the Snoriff that he
was ready, and to hurry his work without
any delay, as he was prepared to die. He
was courageous to the very last moment,
walking to the scaffold accompanied by
Rev. Father O'llaran of this city; Father
Chorisco of Scranton, and Fathers Dunn
and Chorist, of Plains. Before leaving his
cell Hangman Atkinson, of Xew York, ad
justed the short noose about liizzelo's neck
and placed the black cap upon his head.
On being led under the hanging rope from
which hangled the hook a few prayers
were offered by the priests. Atkinson then
stepped quickly in front of the murderer
and unbuttoned his loose coat, lifted the
loop over his head. A signal with uplifted
hand was given to the hangman's assistant,
who brought a sharp ax down upon the
slender rope supporting the 400-pound
weight, and at 10:10 a. m. he was swaying
to and fro in the air. Several convulsive
movements were the only signs of life, though
he died very hard. At 11 o'clock he was
pronouueed dead by the prison physician.
The remains were cut down and placed iu
a coffin. Examination by the physicians
showed that the neck was not broken, and
death resulted from strangulation, llis
body was then taken by the undertaker
And removed to the Catholic cemetery for
burial.
The crime for which Michael Rizello,
alias Red-Nosed Mike, to-day, paid the
death penalty was committed iu the fore
noon of October 19, 1888. J. Brainard Mc-
Clure, paymaster for contractor Charles
MeFadden, was accompanied by Hugh
Flanagan, the stable boss, and was driving
from Wilkesbarre to the railroad camp
above Miller's mills with $12,000 intended
to pay oil' the workmen on the completed
job. Michael Rizello, Giuseppi lievireuo
and Yincenzo Yellali lay in wait on the
lonely mountain road, cxpectiil£ the arriv
al of McClure and Flannagan. On their
approach Rizello stepped out and
fired five shots into Flanagan, either shot
shot doing deadly 7 work. The frightened
horse started to run away, and proceeded
some little distance, when Revircno with a
rifle shot McClure in the back twice, kill
ing him instantly. The horse continued
its flight until Vellali, who was ambushed
further up the road, stepped out and shot
it. The other Italians then arrived on the
spot, cut loose the valise containing the
money and fled through the forest to
Mike's cabin three miles away, where the
money and guns were concealed. Al
though Mike and his companions were sus
pected and arrested they were discharged,
and soon after left the city,going to Pough
kcepsie, taking with them their plunder,
$12,000.
A few weeks later Mike's companions
took passage on a steamer for Italy, link
er! ous permitting them to leave with the
money unmolested, though Mike was still
kept under surveillance. Later evidence
was procured by detectives which fright
ened Mike into a full confession on Janu
ary 5, 1889. On February 7 Mike was
brught to trial, and after four days of dra
matic excitement in court he was found
guilty. Though entirely without money
or friends he was ably defended by leading
members of the Luzerne Bar.

Reynard on the Rampage.
People of Harlansbtug were treated to a
novel sight Thursday, when a fox, whiclf
had been chained in the yard at the Rus
sell house, freed himself and started out on
a foraging expedition. Entering a neigh
boring yard, Reynard, witli little cere
mony. snapped the heads from three chick
ens. He then ran into the Main street of
the village where he espied a five-year-old
child of Merchant Jordon at play. In an
instant he was upon the child, and before
the score or more of spectators could real
ize the situation the little one's face, arms
and legs were fearfully torn by the sharp
teeth of the fox which continued its vicious
attack until killed by Thomas Russell.
The child is rapidly recovering from its in
juries.—Xew Castle Xeiat.

A Birthday Party in Bruin.
On Friday of last week from three to
four hundred people'gathered at the resi
dence of Mr. H. M. Caldwell in Bruin to
celebrate Mrs. Caldwell s birthday. The
ladies of the town had Mr. Caldwell take
his wife out to the country on that morn
ing so they could make it a complete sur
prise. On their return they found both
the house and Mr. Harry Gibson full aud
running over on account of the raiu that
came on at noon. When Mr. and Mrs. C
drove up to the house Mrs. C. says, "Har
rv. what does this all mean, something
wrong? Harry replied: "Xothing, Nat, it :
ntust be a pic-nic and they have been com-
ing in out of the rain."
After quiet was restored and the rain •
over the tables were spread on the lawn, J
where the large circle of friends partook of
the good things that were set before them.
Rev. Small of Petrolia. sang "Praise God
from whom all blessings flow. Rev.
Kerns of West Moniteau asked God to bless
the meal now about to be partaken of, and
the Bruin brass band entertained the mul
titude while eating with some of their fine
selections. Dinner being over. Mrs. Lizzie
Pershing Anderson, principal of the School
of Elocution in Allegheny City and Miss
Lillie Heincr of Bruin, favored us with
some very line recitations.
Mr. W. C. Black was chosen chairman.
Regrets troin a number of ministers and
friends, Rev. McKalhp of Beaver, Pa., a
brother of Mrs. Caldwell, Revs Mills, Haz
lctt, Boyd, Wright and others were read.
Rev. Small being called away unexpect
edly Rev. Kernis was called upon and made
a fine address on behalf of the lriends of
Mrs. Caldwell, and presented her with a
handsome parlor mirror and several other
nice presents. The response was made by
Prof. Will Gibson.
Dr. Dennison was then called upon aud
in his usual genial manner made some very
fitting remarks; others were called upon
and responded, aud an artist was on hand
who took Wo views of the party. More
music followed and theu all wout home
fueling that it was good for all to have
been there H.
Birthday Party in Middlesex
Township.
A very pleasant gathering of the friends
and neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Flick
took place at their residence in Middlesex
Tp. on the 18th inst. They met for the
purpose of celebrating the 58th birthday of
Mrs. Flick.
Mrs. Flick is afflicted with almost entire
deafness, but none the less worthy of the
honor conferred upon her on that account.
She is an estimable lady and is so regarded
by all who are acquainted with her.
It was a delightful occasion, enjoyed by
her friends to the number of forty or up
wards. All present thought it was a real
pleasure to be there. After a short season
of social enjoyment diuuer was announced.
The table was set in Mr. Flick's new
barn, which being well fitted for the occa
sion. presented, with the long table loaded
with a great variety of good things, a
cleanly and inviting appearance. To the
barn, then, we all repaired; and soon the
tabic was surrounded with delighted guests.
All partook with delighted eyes and eager
appetites. It was a sumptuous feast got
up in the good style of the Middlesex
ladies. All at. the table having partaken to
their entire satisfaction, place was given to
new recruits who, in their turn, soon sur
rounded the table, and did like ample jus
tice to the eatables thereon with those who
were first at the feast.
All being now well feasted, the people
wore called together, and remarks were
called for. The call was responded to by
Rev. E. Ogden, William Trimble, Esq. and
others, so we enjoyed a feast of the mind
as well as of the body. Prayer was offered
by Rev. 10. Ogden, and all the voters pres
ent who had not been to the election be
fore coming to tho feast adjourned to the
polls to vote for the Amendment. 0.
Sunbury Academy Commence
ment.
On class night, Juno 17th, a large num
ber of people collected at Academy Hall to
witness the exercises of the evening, which
were very well delivered and were both in
teresting and instructive.
June 10 was the date of the Irv ing Ex
celsior contest which resulted as follows:
Essay—Miss Jennie Stewart being the suc
cessful competitor gave a very fine essay
on "The two sides of the shield."
The debate was only on the affirmative
side by Mr. Howard Painter, as his oppo
nent. Mr. George Timblin took sick after
coming on the stage and had to be taken
home.
The prize for the best ovation was con
tested for by Elry Caldwell and W.
Campbell and resulted in a victory tor Mr.
Campbell who spoke of ••John Brown."
The declamation contost was between
Misses Minnie McCaudless and Eva Coulter
and ended iu a tie on decision. The judges
were Rev. Patterson, Rev. Hayes and
Judge McMichael.
The commencement exercises took place
on .7 une 30. The performances were all of
the highest order, and all of the performers
deserve great credit for the manner that
they delivered their performances.
The salutatory was given by Miss Rose
Marshall. The oration of J. Gill Allison on
the subject of "Gain or Loss" was one of
the finest that could be expected;
"America's Mission" was well given by
Win. A. Brown; Wilber Campbell gave an
oration ou ••Our Debt to Europe"; Miss
Bella MeElvain gave an oration on "Drift
wood," which was one of the finest that we
have listened to.
The subject "A field for Philanthropy"
was fully discussed by Win. B. Campbell,
who spoke of the progress of the negro aud
their power, aud the education of both the
whites and negroes.
11. L. Graliaiu gave au oration 011 "Daniel
as a statesman"; John 11. Jack give an
oration 011 "Calvin and his Institutions"
and ho being the junior member of the
class deserves great credit for the able
manner in which he handled his subject;
Chas. P. Marshall's subject was "There are
no Alps" and lie asserted that our progress
was due only to our own efforts; "The
Dawning of Civilization" was by I). L. Me-
Xees, who gave one of the finest orations
of the day and who should have great
credit for the effort that he has put forth in
securing his education; the oration "Behold
the Man" by Sadie Marshall was one that
deserves much credit. The valedictory
was given by M. 1). MeClellitud.
The class presented Miss Coulter with a
book of poems, Rev. Wright with a Bible
and Prof. McGranahan with a gold chain,
and that morning the school presented
Prof. McGranahan with a gold watch.
The alumni exercises consisted of an
oration, art exhibition, an original poem
and a play entitled "Enlisted for the War"
a drama in two acts, which was well re
ceived and if such plays as that would be
encouraged it would be much better for
the community at large.
The music was furnished by the Butler
Germauia orchestra. T.
A REM ARK ABLE story comes from Postb.
the Hungarian capital, that a boy in one
of the schools has confessed to his father
that he has for some time past taken money
from the till in his shop, being or derod to
do so by a man who had made him the sub
ject ot experiments in hypnotism. The
father went to the school authorities and
it was discovered that a whole class of boys
was in a similar plight. They acted as
"mediums," and by a process known as
"suggestion" were made to steal money
from'their parents and bring it to the ardent
scientist in question.
Commencement at Nth. Wash
ington.
The first commencement exorcises of the
North Washington Academy were held
la-t week. Rev. Moore. D.D.. delivered the
Baccalaureate sermon, a powerful exposi- j

Friday evening the closing exercises were
held in the Lutheran church, the rostrum
was banked with flowers and ferns and

interesting character, reflecting credit not ,

the "work of Prof. Sorrick. The Academy
ha.s completed one of the prosperous years
of its existence with a bright outlook for
future greatness. A number of students

Licenses in Pennsylvania.
A friend requests the publication of the
following. In 1891 licenses are likely to be
granted to those only who will agree to the
following conditions:
Ist. To provide chairs and tables for the
use of customers at which they will be
served.
2nd. To use stamped measures, stamp
ed at an office provided by the State, gill,
half pint, pint, quart, etc.
3rd. In every case the full measure ask
ed for must be served; if in beer, it must be
a full measure of solid boer, and not froth.
4th. Officers appointed by the State
will demand a sample of beer, whiskey,
wine or other drink on sale, for the pur
pose of analysis. Any of these found to be
not up the requirements of the law, will in
volve the penalty, *. e. loss of license, fine
and imprisonment as prescribed by said
law.
MEMOHANDUM.
It is understood that tho requirements
for beer, ale or porter will be: That it shall
be manufactured from malt and hops en
tirely. The presence of any other bitter
than hops, or malt other than barley, or
of any other other ingredients than malted
barley and hops, will cancel tho license
and involve the additional penalty.
The use of malted barley for whisky and
nothing else will be imperative. This will
nearly eliminate the Fusel Oil so largely
found in whisky made from rye or other
raw grain.
Cronin a British Spy.
CHICAGO, Juno 24. —To.night's sensation
in the Cronin case is a circumstantial report
that the authorities have information show
ing that a committee of Camp 20 of the
Clan-na-Gael, alter a formal trial, found
Cronin guilty of being a British spy. The
charge was that Cronin under the guise
of endeavoring to expose alleged malfeas
ance of AlexauderSullivan, Michael Boland
and Denis Feely, was in reality attemp
ting to bring about a public investigation
of the work and the accounts of the Order
for the information of the British Govern
ment, and the London Times Commission.
It was shown that the exposure of the
workings of the Order which would be
necessary in order to refute Cronin's charg
es would furnish to the Loudon Time* all
the information which it had despaired of
obtaining by the appointment of a Govern
ment sub-commission in America.
Chief Ilabbarft aud States' Attorney
Longenecker neither explicitly affirm or de
ny the reports.
THE New York I'ress thus sums up the
result of the Samoan conference as highly
creditable to our diplomats. It calls at
tention to the fact that a year ago the
question was of the annexation of the
Samoan Islands by Germany. The Ger
mans had all but taken possession of them.
They had deposed the legitimate king, and
carried hi in a prisoner to a distant island,
and thei: had set up a puppet of their own
in his place. To-day there is not a whis
per of the possibility of a German annexa
tion of Samoa. Not only that, Malietoa,
the true king, is to be restored. Tamasese
is to be sent back into his original power
lessuess. The Sainoans are no doubt
guaranteed their national autonomy. They
are to be protected from being gobbled up
by Germany or any other power. The
rights of each of the three countries—Ger
many, England and the United States—
are to bo equally sustained, and all the
minor disputes which have arisen con
cerning the indemnity, the land question
and the coaling stations have been settled
by the consent of the contracting par
ties.
JOUNSTOWN seems about to be restored
though the process will be a novel one for
a community so long established The
town has heretofore consisted of an assem
blage of independent boroughs. To restore
the streets, resurvey land lines, provide
sewers and do other similar work under
the old system Would be all but impossible,
and it is therefore proposed to obtain a
city charter covering the whole area. All
this will take time, and until it is accom
plished 110 permanent improvements can
bo made. It is therefore proposed to erect
temporary shelters in which the merchants
can re-open their stores and set business in
operation once more. The growth of the
place will therefore be like some of the
western tailroad towns, which spring up in
a week, in most temporary fashion, then
are transformed into substantial cities.
TUB Samoan treaty having been complet
ed it remains for the commissioners to re
turn to their stations as private citizens,
covered with well earned honor. The fact
Ciat the United States had no selfish pur
pose to serve makes the achievement all
the more satisfactory, providing as it does
for the welfare of the Islanders who looked
to us fiu' protection and comfort. The
probabilities seem to point to one member
of the Commission, William Walter Phelps,
a3 likely to remain in Germany as our rep
resentative.
IT N estimated that three-fourths of the
woman of leisure of New York and Brook
lyn are interested in mind enre. Christian
science of faith healing. The number of
teachers in both cities is phenomenally
large, and all have full classes. The pu
pils arc invariably wo man.
NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
A porcupine was latelj - killed at LaufCl

four inches long and a paw as big as a
boy's hand.
Armonr £ Co.. of Chicago have located
a wareroom at Beaver Falls.
New Castle is having a boom in tape
worms and Titugvillc is terribly excited

It would seem rather lar to ship building
stone, but dressed stone ready for placing
in a new Y. M. C. A. building at Charles

and shipped from about midway between
Sharon and Xew Castle by a "Warren firm,
who have the contract.
Mrs. Miriam Gullinger of Mercer has been
an invalid for forty years, and has not been

This seems like a loirg a long time to be

''ls life worth living? - '
Alexander Recke died of blood poison
ing at Homeopathic Hospital in Pittsburg.
This is the man who stood up in the Johns
town debris for two days with a spike driv
en into his leg, and entirely without sus
tenance.
A resident of South Williamsport, Pa.,
who had put his two pigs in his parlor to
shield them from the flood, soon after
missed them, and concluded they had got
out and drowned. At bedtime, on going up
to his room, he found the'two stowed in
hisbed, and fast asleep.
The ease of Mrs. Ellen A. Jones, of Xew
Brighton, vs. the Pittsburgh and Western
Railroad Company, for the killing of her
husband at Foxburg, Clarion county, in
July, 1887. was tried before Judge Wick
ham in Beaver Co., last week, and a ver
dict given Mrs. Jones by the jury of $7.-
000. „
A posse of United States officers raided
an illicit distillery located in Wild Cat
Hollow, not far from Stoneboro in Mercer
Co., but the moonshiuers had scented dan
ger and were not to be found. It is said
the thickets and ravines in that part of
Mercer county contain numerous illicit
whisky mills.
Indiana county will lose about $50,000
in county bridges which were swept away
by the recent flood, in the Conemaugh
river which forms the southern boundary
of the county. There were a large number
of bridges most of which are goue.
A Clarion correspondent says the Ever
hart murder case will come up again in the
Clarion Court in August, and that several
more arrests for the commission of the
crime will soon be made.
Mrs. A. L. Martin, of Little Beaver twp.,
Lawrence county, recently discovered a
needle protruding from one of her lower
limbs and succeeded in removing it from
the flesh. Thirty-eight years ago, while a
little girl, she was playing with her dolls
and had a needle in her mouth. An older
person coming into the room playfully
picked her up and laid her in the open
drawer of a buroau, causing her to swallow
the needle.- This circumstance had been
forgotten, but was recalled to her mind by
the reappearance of the needle. In its de
vious wanderings the little piece of steel
had caused many unpleasant symptons,
from which medical skill failed to relieve
her.
A three-weeks old Johnstown child, un
named at the time the flood occurred, has
been christened May "Wreck. The little
thing had a narrow escapo from death, but
that is no reason why it should be burden
ed all through life with such a name.
John B. Moore, of Brookville, Pa., who
landed in Guthrie, Oklahoma, on April 22
with but 15 cents,now holds an SBOO claim,
owns the only opera house in Oklahoma,
and is "exhibiting more Indians than any
other white man living."
Berks county is aflieted by a swarm of
red locusts that make a clean sweep of all
vegetation wherever they alight. Horses
and cattle are terrified by their numbers
and even the steady going country folks
are a bit rattled.
A colored man was kicked by. a lioi se at
Sandy Lake about ten days ago and his
skull so crushed that considerable brain
oozed out. Dr. Coley removed two pieces
of the skull and felt sure the young man
would not live more than half an hour, or
an hour at most. Dr. Glebner, who saw
him, was of the same opinion. Contrary
to experience, the fellow didn't die, and
was out washing buggies, as usual, this
week. His case is an extremely rare one.
Medical works give examples of a similar
nature, but they do not come under the
observation of one physician in a thousand.

Simon Cameron's Rule of Life.
Simon Cameron is dying. For more than
two generations this strong willed and sa
gacious son of Pennsylvania loomed up
like a granite cliff in politics. There was
a time when his will was law in that Com
monwealth. But long > ago the veteran
leader vanished from the field of active
life, and has enjoyed his green old ago in
seclusion.
Mr. Cameron's secret of success was that
he never acted without knowing all the
facts obtainable. Although a desperate
and shrewd fighter he seldom wasted his
efforts in support of weak men. Here is
his own explanation:
""When I found the man who was pretty
sure to win with the little support I could
give him he was made the Cameron candi
date. 1 got all the credit for the victory,
and the candidate himself belived that his
success was entirely attributable to inc."
This was a rule adopted by a strong man,
one of the strongest America has looked
upon.
How many of the present chieftains base
their lives upon that principle?—X. Y.
Herald.
THE worst case of base ingratitude
known in recent times happened near
Reading, recently. A Polander in bathing
was taken with cramps and cried for help.
A railroad employe near at hand threw off
his clothes and plunged in to his rescue.
Thougfi unsuccessful in saving the man's
life, he, at great risk, managed to bring
the dead body ashore. Arriving there, he
discovered that his own clothing had been
robbed of a sum of money, by the dead
man's sister, who had been attracted to the
spot by the cries of distress, but lent no
aid.
TIIKBH are some advertisements which
we are very glad to print for nothing, with
a request to our contemporaries to copy.
For example, this one, taken from a Dakota
newspaper:—
If John Jones, who twenty years ago de
serted his poor wife and babe, will return,
sail babe will liek the stuffin' out of
him.
ONE of the best-known drunkards and
bar room loungers of Philadelphia is dead
lie was a goat named "Billy," or rather
he was was half goat and half deer. He
has not drawn a sober breath for the last
seven years, with the exception of two
months, when he was laid up with a bro
ken leg. caused by a champagne spree. He
frequented all the liquor shops of Nicetown
and was always invited to have something
with the other boys.
TIIE Republican State Convention has
been called to meet at the Opera House in
