The public sale of personal prop •Tty of Loinh Bros., of Sonestown, ras largely attended, on Saturday, number of LaPorte people, were attendance. Congress will organize, on Mon ay. It will no doubt be a warm flair. The country is safe, how ver, so long as we have a Republi m President. Our ambitious young men and ly readers should address the >well Business College, of Bing mton, and learn how good posi ns may be secured. Governor Pattison, on Saturday, ■pointed C. Heydrick, of Frank , Venango county, as Judge of Supreme Court, vice Hon Silas Clark, deceased.

County Treasurer William Mur ray, of Cherry, was attending to the duties of his office, at the county seat, Monday.

Ist 1891, was an unlucky day at the LaPorte tannery —Byron Williams accidently shot himfcelf in the hand and a Polander fell and broke his arm. State Treasurer-elect Morrison has been appointed by State Treas- urer Boyer as cashier, to succeed 1 William Livesyj and will assume his duties on December Ist. ' There is a rutnor j.float that the Lehigh Valley will continue their road from Thornedale to connect with ' the Williamsport and North Branch at Nordinont,in early spring. With Newell, that handsome : editor of the Dushore Review , in a good sized town, and a red handker ■ chief tied about his neck, his voca -1 tion, by appearance, could easily be recognized. On January first we intend to send out bills to all our subscribers who are in afrfear? one year or more. In the meantime we ask all such to I kindly straighten up their subscrip tion accounts. We are positive that there is one '| deer in this section of the country, j Chas. Mead of LaPorte township j shot at it, twice on Monday, and the j ■ bullets failed to take effect. It still roams the forest. During the presidential campaign of 189)2, nbw close at hand every home I Republican ought to take the RE PUBLICAN. Our stand for Republi j can principles will be unwavering > I and steadfast. I Cleveland may be strong in his 1 J party but his weakest point is in his ; owu state. To be nominated with- I out his home delegation would, to j say the least, place him in a very embarrassing position. Judge Sittser, it is said, will, here after, assist the Jury Commissioners i jin filling the jury wheel. This has j I the appearance, that the Judge is I J dissatisfied witli the turn of the j j wheel and hopes to improve its' 1 droppings. With the LaPorte Hall furnished,! as is anticipated by the I. O. O. F.,i our town will be minus of a place of j amusement. Tt> fill this vacancy it j is said, the old College building, on | East Main St., will be repaired to j make good the deficiency. The Lehigh Valley It. It. is doing a j I good business at Thornedale. The j cars on their arrival are heav-1 Uy loaded with hark and hides : and on their departure, carry with j them lumber and leather. A train i visits Thornedale each day. The teachers and scholars of the { LaPorte graded school, anticipate ; giving a school exhibition, on the j eve ot Christmas. The proceeds of j the entertainment will be expended in erecting a Stage iu the large apartment of the school building, | known as the Institute room. Few men are so perfect that they I can afford to rejoice over the frail- ; ties of their fellows. No life's re-1 cord is made up until death draws 1 the curtain. For which reason it behooves us all to practice charity ; in our comments on the doings of others. By an order of the Court, notices < have been served upon the Super visors of Forksvillc boro., Forks, < Shrewsbury and LaPorte twps., and i LfiPorte boro., to commence work ' on the new road leading from Forks- 1 ville to LaPorte, as soon as practic able. I The people of Williamsport, are anxious for the next State Prohifti- j tion Convention to meet in their , midst They say, that they shall be , treated fair by the press and will be ( loyally welcomed in the Lumbei | city. The convention meets in,' May. , The watering trough on North Muncy street, has recently been i built new, and its location slightly , moved, which adds very much to its convenience. A trench has also been excavated permitting the over- ! flow of water to pass off in its proper , channels and not in the centre of j the road as heretofore. The change < iB very acceptable. Supervisor, i James I'. Walsh did the work. ■ i Brother Day of the Tunkbannock Democrat, evades answering oui question, of which, "the Republican? or Democrats will have a majority in Wyoming county in 18U2 ?" but strikes off on the wilds of Sullivar anrl belittles our people, uncalled for. From Mr. Day's answer, w« would judge him to be a very irri table man, one who takes offense al mere nothing. He surely is not n bright sunny Day. Our questior was purely for information. How ever, we don't blame him for evad ing our question, as he has been of] the track for so many years, it is'nl at all likely he would predict right, in a Presidential contest. In 188fc ' Wyoming county gave Harrison 96 majority ; we are willing to wager 1 Day a boottle of "Soothing Syrup" that Wyoming will double this ma -1 jority for the Republican candidate 1 in 1892, and if Day continues to publish a paper in said county up to ! the election of said year, we will bet . him a double dose of the soothing qualities and increase the majority to four times that of 1888. It is as important to have clean pure air for breathing as to have clean water for drinking. Dwellings, oHices, factories and school rooms should be kept well supplied with fresh air and great care should be exercised in not, over heating. A thermometer should be kept in every apartment heated rather than trust the fallacy of one's feelings to regu late the temperature. If you wish jto enjoy good health, have rosy cheeks and be free from headaches and tired feelings, give careful at tention to the regulation of the heat and ventilation of your livining and sleeping rooms. I The people of Shrewsbury twp , | are agitating a change of the elec tion polling place in said district. ;It is now located at David Halls jwho resides within one mile of the I Lycoming county line. It is pro- I posed that a change be made to the | Stone House, known as the Bennett ; property near the Acid Factory. ! This would equalize the distance | more satisfactory anil would only 'be fail and justice to all concerned, j I To this end, it is proposed that the ; ! people of the twp., vote on a change | at the February election. | Mayor. F. W. Gallagher, was 'anxious for that 9 pound rooster at the shooting match, on Thursday, , but failed to bag it. The editor i won him and owing to its lii»htir»c i qualities, we have been obliged to ! place him in a small apartment for ' fear he would 'do up' some of our ; neighbor's gaimsters and cause a I quarrel iu Jie neighborhood. Atty. ; Grim presented the band with this j bird and it netted the organization | $1.90. | Rev. Dr. John Hall, minister of Jthq Fifth Ave. Presbyterian church,' of New York city, was shot at three I times on Sunday while entering his | residence by an insane man who; claimed that the Reverened gentle- i man was among a clique to ruin his ' j business, that of a real estate dealer. I i The lunatic, who goes by the name ! of John O. Roth, and who is a german aged about 45 years, was ar-1 rested at the time of the shooting! I and is now in safe keeping. —i I m , - The Northern Democrats are be ginning to think that the Southern people should have their quota of political honors, hence, the Speaker ship of Congress is pretty well as sured to overtake Crisp of Georgie. iiTliey don't dare however, to select a man from Georgie or an3 r other Southern S'.ate as their candidate for the Presidency. In which case, we would thrtish the boots otf from them. R. W. Bennett of Eagles Mere, is perhaps the most successful bear trapper in the county. He has captured in the neighborhood of a dozen in the past few years. The last one added to this list, was on Thursday the 19th, and he was a pretty good sized one, too. E. V. Ingham accoq|panied him to the trap and from all accounts they had great sport in slaying bruin. Dr. Sine of Williams port will be in LaPorte on Tursday and Friday of this week at the LaPorte Hotel, and while here would be especially pleased to look over all work done on his last visit, so that if any ir regularity has occurred it can be corrected. • The First Gunning Accident of th< Season in This Vicinity. BYRON WILIIAMH THE VICTIM. On Tuesday, Byron Williams agec about 17 and who resides with hif father at the LaPorte Tannery-, waf out prospecting Tor deer in company with—J. VV. Ballard, T. J. Keeler IChas. Mead, John Andrews and Arthur Minner. The party were in the forest between Thornedale and Seeman's, rear the plank road. At abnut noon several of the party met and it was decided that Chas. Mead and LJyron Williams take a deer track and if possible cause the deer to take a certain runway, on which it was understood that Mr. Ballard would be in wait. Byron and Chas. ( started in pursuit. While on their way they were struck with hunger and it was decided that they set down and partake of dinner. They chose for their seat a log that layed up a trifle from the ground. Byron very foolishly stood his gun either between his legs or very close by his side and while reaching for some j thing at his back the gun which was > loaded with buckshot, slipped and s the hammer struck something and , exploded. The contents struck ' Myron 011 the left hand tearing the > little finger off'and his clothes from around his body, also, setting fire to L his clothes. Mr. Mead, was close b}" and Byron cxclamed, "look at m$ hand!" Charley gave the hand but ■ little attention until he had made an 1 examination of his bowels and found that the charge had glazed his flesh 5 but not serious. The unfortunate boy walked to Thornedaie from ' whence he was brought to his home ' by a Sir. Johnson who was on his way for a load of bark. On his arrival home, Dr. Uill was sum* , I moned, but was absent from town. Dr. Herrmann of Dushore, was then (| sent for, who did up the wound. At ,' this writing Byron is doing as wel 1 . Jas could be expected, but we fear it ( | will be sometime before he can con tinue his trade, that of blacksmith I under the supervision of Mr. Ballard .| of this place, where be has been en j gaged frr the past months. Thanksgiving at LaPorte. Thanksgiving, althongh a bleak dismal day, owing to the constant dropping of rain and snow, was very much enjoyed at LaPorte. The band boys were on hand with tur keys, ducks anil chickens to com mence the sport of the day, at 1:30. The shooting was to have taken place on the ball ground, but owing to the storm the Pierue dwelling, which is unoccupied, was secured and the mark nine 11 shot from inside of this structure through an open window. Bernice, Lopez, Muncj Valley, Eagles Mere, Sonestown, Nordmont and LaPorte twp., were all repre sented by good marksmen and our home talent were compelled to sight pretty closely to bag a bird now and then. Twenty turkeys, siic ducks and a numerous supply of chickens < were disposed of. The target was about sixty yards distant and the con testants for each bird, numbered ( six, the nearest to the bulls eye bag- Iged the bird. Mr. Warner of Muney Valle}', was perhaps the most suc cessful marksman of the day. He carried home with him, two turkeys, two duck and a chicken or two.' At about 4 p. m. Atty. A. L. Grim presented the band with a 9 pound rooster and a very pretty one too. This was, owing to the lateness of the day rattled oft and' netted the band $1.90. Mr. Baker, of LaPorte twp., also, presented the-bo3 7 S with a chicken which was disposed of in the same way and was very pro ductive to the band box. This was very kind of the above named gentlemen, for which the band boys extend their sincere thanks. In the evening the dance took place in the Hall and was liberally attended, and was one of the pleas antist affairs of the season. The gross receipts of the day and even ing was $46.50. James G. Blaine Secretary of State, paid Philadelphia a visit on Friday and Saturday of last week. While there, he wr.s examined by Dr. J. Madison Taylor, his attend ing physician, who says : "Mr. Blaine is in much better health at present than for the past four yens." It is pretty evident that Mr. Blaine will be the Republican candidate for President in 1892.
