—One day last week the Pennsylvania
railroad company procured the servics of
a diver to examine the condition of the
foundation of the piers of the stone bridge
at Johnstown. Be found the foundations
in good condition anil reported that hun
dreds of bodies were in the water about tin
piers, entwined in wire from the wire mills
in such shape as to preclude all possiliility
of getting them out except by cutting the
wire. Thousands of toils of wire and iron
rods are in the botto.ii of the stream and
ean be taken out only with great difficulty.
It is ostimauted that not less than five hun
dred bodies are held at the bottom of the
river by the debris.
—Here's a suggestion which may be of
use to florists aud those who cultivate
flowers for pleasure instead of profit. It
is nothing more or less than the use of ice
water for the destruction of the insect
pests which infest plants during the sum
mer season. This suggestion comes from
a gardncr in Chambersburg, who sa.\ s that
ice-cold water is a good insecticide when
applied to plants with a force-pump or
large syringe. It drenches the leaves,
chilling and knocking off the insects, which
often cannot be reached in any other way,
and the eggs of the pests are also knocked
off and destroyed. It is especially appro
priate and effective in the destruction of
the rose slug. Many persons dislike to ap
ply poison to their flowers, and many
other remedies are objectionoblc, but in
ice water, according to this gentleman,
they have a cheap, easy and effective rem
edy.
—All tho regiments of the National
Guard are now in their encampments, the
15th Keg, of which the Ilutler eompauy is
a part, being located near Grove <-'ity. The
camp is tho real school of the soldier. A
few days of life there will produce an un
heard of amount of sunburned faces and
hands, a toughening of each man's physical
organization, and a morn thorough knowl
edge of field tactics than could be possible
by any other means. The National Guard
of Pennsylvania is now recognized as the
most powerful and tho most thorotigly
equipped Itody of l.'nolo Sam's citizen sol
diery. The idea in tho militia of this
.State is that the various regiments shall
be ready for service ami available for duty
in the shortest possible time, and therein
lies the great principle of our nation's pow
er of defense. Given a few experiences of
being under fire and the militia of this
State would be transformed at once into
vetcraus, hardened, ready ami effective
The same mark is aimed at in other
States, but is more nearly approached in
Pennsylvania than in any other State iu
the Union. Quite a number of Itutlcr peo
ple will witness the exercises of the regi
ment to-day, Thursday.

Terrible Accident near Har
mony.
Several families near Harmony, an<l
among Uiem those of Daniel Feidler and
Al>r#nm' 7.icglcr who live • :i - i-p-• -it
sides of the ereek. a .-hort distance at>ov«-
the town, are accommodating boarder
from the city thi - summer.
On Tuesday morning of thi* week. fiv>-
yoanjr ladies who are hoarding at Feidler
got into his spring-wagon and drove over
the bridge to Ziegler's. and sat in tli■
wagon in front of the house talking to
some boarders there. The railroad passes
the front of Ziegler's house through a deep
cut, right along the road, and when the
whistle of an approaching train was heard,
the ladies were warned of their danger and
advised to get otit of the wagon till tl>e
train passed, but they did not think it
necessary to do so.
As the train came nearer, however, the
horse became frightened and backed thtm
all over th<> embankment, anJ threw tiiem
headlong in front of the locomotive, and
one of them —Miss Oppenheimer was cut
to pieces and instantly killed, two others
had limbs crushed and sustained injuries
that may prove fatal, and the other two
escaped with but slight injuries. The
horse, also, was skinned and cut to pieces.
The names of the ladies in the wagon
were Misses Nannie Oppenheimer, ft 11a
Floersheim, Amanda Klee. Bella Woruiser
and Mi-s Herzog.
The remains of Miss Oppenheimer were
taken to her home in Allegheny that eve
ning. Miss Klee whose leg was broken
and Miss Floersheim whose hip was din
located were also taken to their homes
there, and the others went home. Mi--
Oppenheimer was the only daughter of
Muses Oppenheimer, the clothier.
Since the above was put in type we have
received the following from a correspond
ent at Harmony.
For the past two weeks several young
ladies from Pittsburg have been stopping
at Judge Fiedler's ami on the fatal morn
the young ladies asked Mr. Fidler for his
horse and buggy to take a drive. So they
proceeded on their way till they came to
the residence of Mr. A. Ziegler where they
stopped to chat with friends, when a heavy
freight train came thundering past and the
lady having the lines pulled on thein and
the horse backed the wagon down over
the bank, when half of the train had passed
the wagon (tilled with its human freight)
and horse went down against the train that
was running at a high rate of speed. Mis-
Oppenheiuier, daughter of il. Oppenheim
er. the Market street clothier, was instant
ly killed and Miss liella Flocrsheim had
her right hip dislocated, while Miss Klee
was severely bruised aliout the face and
shoulders, the other three ladies all escap
ed injury. I)rs. Redmond, Ralston and
Fiedler were soon on hands, and the
wounds were soon dressed and dislocation
reduced. Friends were telegraphed for
and came on the 3 p.m. train, and the 6:30
train took the body home, and Miss
Floersheim was placed on a cot and Dr.
Redmond went to the city with the sor
rowing party.
All the parties moved in the*highest lie
brew society of Pittsburg, and were be
loved by all who knew them.
The doctor returned this morning and
reports the patients doing well.

Sudden Death in the Lockup.
On Monday night last, a man who went
down the alley back of the Vogeley House
to get a horse hitched there, saw a man
apparently intoxicated lying in front of
Gregg's livery stable. lie called the night
watchman, and the two men lifted the
drunken man and carried him into the
lockup. The drunken man was breathing
heavily, but the men who carried him
thought that this was simply the result of
the liquor and paid 110 attention to it.
Next morning when the police went to
the lockup fur the man. he was found to be
dead, and a bruise on his head indicated
that lie'had fi.llen from the doorway of the
mow of the stable in front of which he was
found lying.
His name was George Dallam, lie was
brought to this town a few weeks ago by
Watson Taylor, the colored horse-dealer,
a.id spent most of his time at the race
track. He was a man of about 55 years of
age, was a good workman, and his onlj'
fault was his indulgence in liquor. Among
his effects was found a receipt from thß
postmaster of I'lttsburg, dated March lit,
IHS9, for a registered letter sent to Mrs.
I'eek of Lexington, Ky., and on the receipt
was written the name, Mrs. Annie I'eak.
An inquest was held, Tuesday morning, by
Coroner Storey and a jury of six men who
found the facts as above stated, also that
llallam had been drinking since last Satnr
day, that he was much intoxicated Monday
evening and had obtained permission to go
to the hay mow to sleep: that he had fallen
from the door of the mow to the alley be
low, a distance of about ten feet, and that
his death was due to intoxication and the
shock of the fall: that a bottle partly filled
with liquor was found on his person, etc.
Death of Mike Farrell.
Mike Farrell, a glass blower, came to
this town, with his family, about three
years ago. He was a good workman and
often made as high as $7 a day, but through
intemperate drinking lost his position.
After the bottle works here were burned
he went with the crowd to Anderson, Ind.,
but came back from there, last April, in
poor health, and since his return has done
no good.
On Wedne.-day he was with some loafer
about the hoard-yard, auil all were drunk.
Wlirti his wife got home from her work,
that afternoon, Mike was lying 011 the
floor and complaining of being sick, lie
said that he thought some beef-tea would
help him, and his wife went to the meat
market and got a piece of beef, but when
she returned he was unconscious and con
tinued so till his death, which occurred
about 10 i'. m.
The wife and her four children live in
the back part of the old drugstore building
on Jefferson St. They are in want and
should be helped.
Death of John Bredin.
Word reached town last Tuesday that
John lircdin had been drowned in the
Allegheny river, and tlx- T'trgrafill of that
evening said: "John lircdin. sou of ex-
Judge lircdin, was drowned in the Alle
gheny river, under the Ninth Street Itridge
about 3 o'clock this morning, and his body
has not yet been recovered. He crossed
the bridge from Allegheny, sat down on
the steps of a house 011 Ninth Street, and
then started to rccross to Allegheny, when
lie was seen to climb the rail, lose his
balance and tall into the water. lie made
some efforts to reach the shore but soon
sank to rise 110 more. The policeman on
the beat ami the watchman at the gas
house, near the bridge, who saw the occur
rence, immediately went to his rescue in a
skiff, but were too late to save him."
The body was recovered from the Ohio
river, near Helleview, Wednesday after

FROM THE "TIF.KRICK."
HI TLER, PA., July '24. —Campbell A
Murphy gave their well at Jefferson Cell

was prompt, and the well began business
at a lively rate. It, however, after a few
minutes, ceased (lowing altogether.

the tools so quickly, that it came near
holding them fast. After running the
sand pump for some time the well had

paid his respects to the young German em
peror, she writes: "Well, I saw the shah
(was within three or four feet of him) with
all his attendants and the emperor. The
Persians were all very nice looking, al
though very dark. Instead of saluting the
way they do here bv putting the hand to
the side of the head the Shall made a mo
tion as if he was briwbing a fly off his nose
—a very line long nose it was, too, with no
Hies on it. He had oil a beautiful uniform
of black cloth embroidered in heavy gold
over about half of it and a bright green
scarf passed over one shoulder."

ONCE MOKE.
The Truth and Nothing but the I
Truth.
Many year- ago when we. along with
our fellow citizens, were paying #l5O to
$250 for a buggy, we conceived the idea
that less than SIOO ought to buy a buggy
good enough for almost any man. We set
about investigating the matter—went to
the largest manufactories in the V. S. and
made a contract for a full car-load to be
made to our order. Wc had the cash in
our pocket, and the result was that the
buggies were made and shipped to us.
Om neighbors (we lived in Prospect, this
county, then) said we made a mistake—
that we could not sell them —and we con
f< ; when we did see them all .set up in a
row we felt n little as though we had an
elephant on onr hands in a dry summer,
lint we had good buggies, bought low for
cash, and of course we could sell low. It
was the fir-t time in the history of Butler
county that a good buggy could be bought
lor less than SIOO. In thirty dayswe were out
of buggies and another carload on the way.
Kvervbody wanted one of our buggies—
the rich iiuui >; w thej were* good enough
fci him to l id.' in and the poor nan for the
ftr-t time in his life rejoiced in being able
to own a buggy. Just so it went; our bus
iness grew, neighbor told neighbor: it
spread all over this State and into other
States until we found it impossible to car
ry cn our large business without good ship
ping facilities. We selected Butler as the
place last November. We purchased the
old manufacturing establishment formerly
conducted by (!. • . lloos.sing A Sou, on
Cunningham street, where we hive located
permanently, and Butler can boast to-day
of having probably^the largest wholesale
and retail carriage dealers in the State.
We keep in stock everything in the Car
riage. Wagon. Cart Harness and Kobe
line. We have top baggies from S4O up to
the very finest hand made work Carts.
sl2 up: harness, $0 to the very best hand
made harness to be tound anywhere. Jtc.
Our success in business we attribute to onr
rules first adopted. Xerer ask rxhotbitant
prices. Xrrcr Mifreprtsent. Thus we have
won the good will and confidence of every
customer. We say with pride that we have
sold hundreds of buggies on time and never
had a man refuse to pay his note on ac
count of the article not being as represent
ed. This i» remarkable, considering otir
nine years' business. We have plenty of
money: never sell a note. We discount
every bill, pay no rent; we give our cus
tomers the benefit of all this, and are close
ensli purchasers. Our large experience
gives us a knowledge of the business that
can be acquired in no other way. Come
down and see us whether you want to buy
or not; it is only a little walk down from
Main street and it will pay you well. The
members of the company are S. 1!. Martin

There is no sense in carrying them over uutil next season, they get all

I want the room and 1 want the money, and I don't want the goods, do
you understand this? It means simply this, the goods are here and mast be
sold, and if you come you can buy them, as no reasonable offer will be refus
