James Troup Commits Suicide.
James Troup, who is Incarcerated in
the county jail here, made , a dash for
liberty Sunday evening about t:.'U).
The prisoner made a break up the alley
at such a rate of speed that the sherilT
was unable to overtake hint until he
arrived at Stahlnecker's butcher shop
at the west end of town. The Hheriti'
brought th prisoner baek to jail.
The prisoner was smoking a cigar all
the while he was running.
"James Troup shot himself," w'usthe
uews that reached here Monday after
noon at tour o'clock. Investigation
proved thestory but too true. It seems
thai James had a wrticulur desire to
go to his home and contrary to the di
rection of the court, he went.
He used a shot gun and blew oil' the
entire side of his face. The man was
evidently demented and the case is a
sad aud sorrowful one. It is indeed an
unfortunate ease and the sympathy of
the entire County is extended to the
unfortunate ones.

" Fewer Gallons ; Wears Longer."
The secret is out and Middlcburg
can go on living just as if the riddle
had never been asked.
No it can't, cither. Middleburg
is not going to be what it was be
fore. Its houses are going to be
. .. j ...,'
brighter; its pVWie. a little more
prosperous Infancy going to have
some of tnhf momfy left to buy
other thingwith.
The answer to the riddle is this
you can paint a building with fewer
gallons of Devoe Lead ancf Zinc
paint than with mixed paints, and
it will wear several times as long
as a building painted with lead
and oil mixed by hand. What will
people do with the rest of the
money?

pressed Judge Z. T Gcmlierlinn Will Suc
ceed Himself Because He
Should.
(Communicated.)
Judte Z. T. Gemlierling is a citizen
of Sellnsgrove, and has always been a
true republican. He lias never jump
ed the Intel's to cut another republican
after the latter was duly nominated by
his party. He does not abuse his
opponents for the nomination lor As
sociate Judge, whie h olllce he is a can"
didate for, hut always sieaks iu re
spectful terms of them.
Judge (ieniberling should receive the
nomination at the hands of the repub
licans of Snyder county, be aiise, llrst
he is ipialilled Tor the duties of the
olllce.
Second, he is a poor man, and is ask
ing only for what he believes is due
him under the circumstances.
Third, during his first term as As
sociate Judge he received only a paltry
compensation for his services, because
the duties of the olllce were executed
mainly by his associate on the bench,
as the record will show .
Fourth, every hiteligent man and
voter knows that experience lits a man
to execute an olllce properly. This
Judge Geiuberling has had.
Fifth, he has been a fearless nnd im
partial Judge, which fact is known to
every unprejudiced voter in the coun
ty. Let us all vote for Judge (ieniber
