W. Mc- Collough sold the gas right in '-'GO farms in Armstrong and Westmoreland comities to the Carnegie Co. for a large sum. —Sept. 4, 5, 6 and 7, are the dates fixed for the next Fair; and the grounds will be greatly improved in the meantime, by the building ol a new Floral Hall and Grand Stand. —Pug dogs are going out of style and fox terriers are becoming popular with the women. Some day babies will be restored to the affection of the dog-loving portion of the sex. —The fall moon which occars nearest the autumnal equinox is popularly termed the harvest moon. This year its soft be nignant and mysterious light will shine at the full on September 23 or thros days after the sun has passed the line. —Polk, a small town four miles west of Franklin, has been selected by the Com missioners as the site for the new Asylum for the teeble minded children.

R; four off the West Penn, and two off the Southwest branch. The 11 a. m. train from Butler to Freeport, where it connected with the If ail to Allegheny was among those taken off, and the train that leaves Allegheny at 10:40 a. m. does not now connect for Bnt ler. The company is redncing its expen ses; but as this arrangement still leaves ns four trains each way on that road we have no reason to complain. —The late scarcity of white sugar is stated by a refiner to be dae to the timidi ty of wholesale dealers in the matter of placing orpers for it. Said he: "The short ness of the supply of the refined sugar is not the fault of the company, but is due tt the fact that the wholesale grocers, owing to the stringency of the money market, al lowed their stocks to get abnormally low. Then with the commencement of the frnit. canning season and a corresponding de mand from the retailers, they were unable to snpply their customers. In anticipation of a large demand, this company accumu lated • very large stock of refined sugar, so large indeed that we were criticised for doing so. We shipped that as promptly as the orders for it were received from the wholesalers, and are running our refineries full time and ship ping the daily product as fast as possible." —The ma nner in which this borough is turning out to the World's Fair suggests this refrain: Yes. we're goin' to Chicago, we're goin right along— We're goin' by the hundreds to swell that monster throng, We're goin'with our little ones, we are goin' with our wives— With our uncles, auali and consins, by the twenties and the fives— - To enjoy a feast of pleasure and a holiday to take In that paradise of wonders, "The White City by the Lake."

The jury in the ease of Com. vs James Somers went out last Friday morning; they had no dinner, came into Court after din ner time and said they could not agree; re ceived further instructions from the Court, and came in about 3 p. m. with a verdict of acquittal and placing all the costs on the county. The verdict was recorded,and then read to them and they all assented to it, or gave assent by silence; whereupon Judge Greer told them that he did think they had done their duty; that to arrive at such a verdict they had to disregard the evidence of several uncontradicted witness es, etc. His criticism was severe, and shortly after it was made Mr. llufT, one of the jurymen in the case made the astonish ing statement that he had not agreed to the verdict. Another juryman arose and stated that they had all agreed to it in the juryroom. Wo did not hear all the evi dence in the case and therefore are incapa ble of expressing an opinion, but it may be that the moral of the case is that a "hung" jury should have its meals at the regular hour,so that the obstinate or wise man on it may not be eoereced by hunger into agree ing to a verdict that he does not approve of. The dictum of the old maid as to pleasing men may hold good as to their determina tion —"Feed the brutes". The Harrisburg Telegraph ol last Thurs day contained the following item: Owing to the public announcement, a short time since, that the Auditor General's Depart ment would prosecute those county ofheers who failed to have their reports in on time it now seems as if all reports would be in by to-night.

ARMORY OPERA HOI SE FRIDAY, SEPT. 22. '■Just Landed." while there is no claim to depth of plot i-< a musical farce comedy w ' -.- l h-MTtj lau.j'. to tlie square inch than nintty-niue ou: of a hundred if the same cla>s of plays that come along. Although the people in the cast have been loudly praised there has been no claim made for them that is not just, and they are a cleverer sot than one usually sees brought together in one company. Perkins Fisher, a comedian who has won great fame in daj-s agone, in "A Cold Day" and other strong pieces; is always acceptable. His work is clean and tasty, with a finish that is refreshing. There is not t tie proper chance tar this excellent artist, in the piece, that he should have but he makes the most of it. The German dialect work of Richard Morosco is complete in every detail and he. together with Gu- Mortimer in his Irish part kept the audience in continual good humor. John C. Leach, as Garbaldi, an Italian did o&cellent work and was often applauded, while his interpretation of the Chinaman was perfect. Of the ladies in the caste only good words can be spoken as each one doe clever work. Miss WuUrd as Lena, was cute and piquant to a great decree, while Miss Delmar as Monolia, an Italian girl, was finished in every movement; she pos sesses a clear, sweet voice of—m-h culture, which is n««"3 t . gri..»» advantage through out u,i: play and is quite an attractive feature. Mile. Texarkansas is a wonderful dancer aud was recalled three times. Her work is of a most unique character that will win applause anywhere. Taken all in all ' Jast Landed"' is ni >ro than likely to bo a great success.

Emba-sabors, soldiers, guards, dancing girl.-, slaves, bos tages. barbariaus. c >hort-s ot loroigu s ii d'.ers. knights in chain armor, captains, priests, courtiers sailors, irUr*. aud hund reds of others are all faithfully represented jaut as they existed 400 years ago. Span ish scenes." street life and incident, game-, sports, combats, races, chariot races with two ane four horses abreast are all depit ed with startling realism. Columbus' in umphal entrj into Barcelona is a mo-t transcendently beautiful affair hi which all the people aro seen at one time in their elegant, flashing costume.-, plumed horses, etc. This pagent alone is without doubt the grandest ever produced, to portray which scenery costing $75 000 had to be specially cmi-tructed. Then there are flo.»ds of songs and choruses equal to the best heard in grand opera. Mounted j horsemen, beautitul dancing girls, elegant costumes, men, women and children are all intermixed in a grand, impressive and ! magnificent tableau occupying all the va** space of the s<k> feet long tent Truly it is a sight of a lifetime. Majestic music floats on tl.e air. the senses aro quickened and the eyes dazzled by each succeeding splendor. Then follows the story told pantomimic ally; then the wild, rnshing racos, the combats, tho sp< its, games, etc., the whole j winding up with the grandest and most | extravagantly arranged ballet ever seen, in | which 300 beautiful foreign dancers were! specially engaged to take part Tho v. i.ole J spectacle is of such a bewildering character j as to dwell in tho mind months after it j has been seen, while the strains of song | and music comes back to one's reccolection j like dreams yfjoug ago. This part of tha 1 snow is as instructive as it is bewildering, i and has astonished everyone who has seen it. Barnaul X Bailey's Show made a great hit in England and took London by storm. Never in their wildest dreams did the people of Europe conceive of such a mag nificent exhibition as the one given them by Barntim & Bailey, for, in addition to a triple circus, hippodrome: double nianag erie, horse fair, two herds id' elephants, elevated stage performances and all the other attractions that have made these shows the first in tho universe, thore was added tho grand spectiele. Now to com prehend this regal part of the monster shows and roust recollect that 1,200 people are required to perform in it. Just think! Was there ever such an overwhelming en tertainment ever thought of in the history of the world? Besides the finest scenery ever constructed, the costliest aud most charming costumes, the finest horses and the most colossal and stupendous pageants tho mind of man ever conceived. Requir ing a stage 400 feet long and four trains of sixty-four cars to transport it. No wonder the whole of Europe was amazed, as all others will bo who see if in this conutry. Sinjtjestions Con' lined in the Popular Summer Guide Bookof th< Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Complimented by the press and indorsed by tourists and practical travelers, the Summer Excursion book of the Pennsyl vania Railroad Company of this year's has become, in eonseqnenco of these recom mendations aud its own real worth, a most highly-prized complication.

A list of hotels is appended to each resort, which it is self-evident adds materially to the value. The month of September beiug probably the finest month in the year iu which to travel, an increased demand for this graph tc production has become noticeable, and that all may avail themselves of the mani fold advantages to be derived from an inspection of its plain and concise yet elegant and completo descriptions of a thousand places within a radius of a thou sand miles, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company's Passenger Department will mail the book mentioned to any address upon receipt of 20 cents in sumps. A nominal sum merely, with cost ol postage added. Copies may also be obtained from Ticket Agents of the company. COMMISSIONERS' SALE OF UNSEATED LAND.
