ber door sash, blinds, shingle*,, lath,

ask you to -i-e their stock and get their
prices before purchasing.
—Granting some people the privilege of
contributing to the colurns of a newspaper
is very much like placing a stick in the ;
hands of « small child. They immediate
ly have »n irresistible desire to bit aome
body or break something. It is so conven
ient to »it comfortably at their own desk
and bring dovfn a ringing whack on some
one's (lelcneeloKH pate that they cannot
forego trying the experiment.
—Th<- Gazette of Indiana, Pa., sent oat
letters of inquiry to the commissioners of
all the counties of the State, except Pfiila
deiphia and Allegheny, asking for informa
tion concerning the euro of the poor. Tha
majority favored the connty almshouse
plan as tho cheapest and best. The ancient
overseer plan in still in vogue in some
countie-t.
—Tbo new -tyle of postal cards will
soon 1m In u-f. Ouo style is pearl gray,
slightly smaller than present siie; the cut
and vigtfette are in blae ink, and the like
ness of General Grant is brought out ad
mirably. The other style is much larger
than the present card and the same color.
The vignette is the same as on tbe pearl
gray, but tho ink is black.
—The herbs are too mnch neglected In
gardens. Page, avory,thyme, parsley and
marjoram nre almost indispensable to a
well-regtilated garden. Xearly all herbs
can bo grown from seed, and once obtained
many of them remain for years, and they
are al:-o propagated from roots. Herbs
oven when established, are too often ne
glected. They should be cultivated and
manured.
—A stoutish gent who occupied a seat
and a half in u Philadelphia street car by
means of expanding his legs unnecessarily,
g.>t on', ol the vehicle in a buff the other
evening be. ius« a drawly-toned youth,
who wa. ( (unpolled to stand, made the
generalize 1 remark in a stage whisper: "I
wonder ome people don't try gum bands
to hold their legs together."
—The wife of Rev. Alfred W. Adams of
Providence, (•'. 1., has instituted proceed
ings for divorce. The suit is brought be
cause of his rigorous protests in pnblic
against his wife's habit of wearing low
necked dresses. It is a relief to find one
preacher in our broad land who is in tronble
ou account of opinions and expressions
that are not theological. Although we
are without particulars as to Mrs. Adams
gown avl neck, we have confidence that
they v. ill v.-in in tho desperate and decol
lett • • t roversy in which the saints of
Khodo Island are now embarked.
—There i- a smart little boy of our ac
ijuaintan«t whose memory is a good deal
like hi* trouscrtt' poeket —a receptacle for
all i ort- of odds and ends, which are re
tained with no little pertinacity, but in
more nr |e s picturesque disorder. Things
pop out now and then in an odd way. The
other night this little boy nndertook tc lay
bis prayers before going to bed. He be
gan:
' Now I lay me down to sleep;
I pray tbe Lord my soul to keep.
If I should—"
Here he got stuck for a moment, and seem
ed to be grasping lor the
line, and then, all at onc>-infsteamed
ahead:
"If I should chance to fall below
Demosthenes or Cicero,
I pray the Lord my soul to take."

The feature of Tuesday evening's meet
ing of the Council was another fight for a
change of grade on Main street.
Mr. Boos presented a petition signed '>y
the property owners of the four corners at
the crossing of Main and Wayne streets,
and others along both streets, a-kinji that

inches, and the petition was ably ad"
vocated, but it was opposed by property
owners along the street who have already
been refused a change, and also by ffleni
bers opposed to any changes on genera!
principles, and wound up by being referred

He also said that the teamsters of the town

I The trial and jury lists were called over

Alex, ileath, in jail on a charge of rapt*.
—the baby case of the South Side, —wa-
allowed by the Court to marry the girl, and
was then discharged on his own recogni
zance.
But one case has been disposed of up to
the time of our going to press. It was that
of Donnelly v«. Milliard, the old Cherry
Twp. land case, and the verdict was for
the plaintiff for the land described in the
writ with six cents damages and costs.
The case of Reiber vs. the P. W. K.
R. Co. is on trial before Judge Hazen, and
that of Smith vs. Cutler borough before
Judge Me Michael.

Letters of adm'n were granted to Chas.

Pat. MeVey was committed to jail for
malicious mischief, and Frank Jackson for
theft.
On Friday afternoon last Constable
Maloney, of .Milierstown, brought Frank
Reiber to liutler, and he was committed to
jail, charged with stealing two horses from
Esq. Easley. of Buffalo Twp. The horses
were stolen some days ago, and Mr. Easley
and tl;e constable traced them across Arm
strong county to Jefferson county and in
tercepted Frank, with one of the horses in
his possession, at tbe village of Troy, in
t! at county. lie had disposed of the other
horse at New Bethlehem, but it was also
recovered. It will be remembered that
there are several other cases of horse steal
ing on our dockets against Frank, and that
he and two others escaped from jail last
November, by prying open the iron door
leading to the attic, and then cutting
through the roof. The Board of Com
missioners, at that time, offered a reward
of s'-'OO for Frank's recapture, aud Con
stable Maloney is now claiming it. Frank
left the State after his escape, but came
back, and has lately been working about
the distillery at Freeport, where his not
being recognized was a mere matter of
luck. He is a young, well-built fellow, of
good leatures and open countenance, and
does not look like a thief, but there seems
to be no doubt of it, and the State will
probably take charge of him for the next
few years.

SOLD OUT—
The dried and canned fruits
advertised ten days ago.
Yes, they are all gone The
samples in our window had to be
taken out to fill ordets. We got the
money for them, aad this is where
the cash system comes into play. If
the merchant has goods on band that
are too high—people won't buy them
—tbe market has to come dowD; it is
better to dispose of the stock at a
reduced price. This is no loss to the
merchant if he gets the spot cash,
and is a benefit to tbe customer. This
has been done; a fresh supply bought.
