Edward Kregar, a representative of D. Chestnut & Co., of Pittsburg, spent a few days in town, last week. Another new house on Broadway is nearing completion. Reports from all sides are being heard concerning the appointment of a post- master at this place, and in all probabili- ty before this article appears in print the long looked-for new Democratic post- master will have donned his proper 1e- galia and be taking preparatory steps be- fore assuming entire command. The Meversdale cornet band, while on their way to the veterans’ reunion at Somerset. plaved several pieces at this place, among which was that familiar air, ‘After the Ball.” Penrose Wolf and wife, A. J. Growall and wife, Frank McDonald and wife. Dr. Bergstresser and J. R. Haines are among the number of people that returned home from the World's Fair, last week. Thev report a very pleasant trip and all are highly pleased with the great expo- sition. Geo. Reidenour, our faithful S. & C. passenger engineer, has been spending a few weeks of vacation; George Parks, a B. & O. engineer, runing the engine during the vacation of Mr. Reidenour. The Baltimore & Ohio R. R. Co. has been hauling many persons to the World's Fair, and solid vestibuled trains pass through our town nearly all hours of the day. D. H. Wolfersharger, proprietor of the Rockwood house, opposite the B. & O. railway station, is doing a large busi- ness, this fall, on account of the World's Fair trains that pass through daily, every train stopping 25 minutes for meals. The Columbian Republican club, of Rockwood, have received badges to wear at the Republican convention to be held at Reading. Pa. The delegates are A. Evans, M. H. Hartzell and Hon. E. D. Miller. We have been greatly interested and entertained in reading the spicv and in- structive contrebutions submitted by ‘Old Sile.” Peach Blossom John” and “Old Dog.” In fact we would be highly pleased to meet these noted personages and have a sociable chat in regard to this glorious and prosperous Democratic ad- ministration. And if we could conven- iently have “Raccoon Jerry” at the con- ference, we would have an animating and profitable gathering, no doubt. Sheriff Good spent Saturday last in our town.

De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve cures piles. \ De Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve cures burns. De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve cures sores. De Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve cures ulcers. A. F. SPEICHER. A Texan statistician announces that the population of the world, estimated at 1,000,000,000, if divided in families of five, could be accommodated in Texas, each family with a five-acre lot. Hesays there would be 50,000,000 lots left over for parks and public buildings. All that honesty, experience and skill can do to produce a perfect pill, has been employed in making De Witt’s Little Ear- sold at rate of one fare for the round trip from Hyndman and all stations west of there as far as | Braddock. The dates selected are September | 26th, 30th, October 5th, 9th, 18th and 25th. The special trains will consist of first-class Vestibuled Day Coaches, equipped with lavatories and other toilet conveniences, and an experienced Tourist Agent and a Train Porter will accompany each | train, to look after the comfort of passengers. Stops for meals will be made at meal stations en route. The tickets will be valid for the outward journey on the special trains only, excepting that ’' ly Risers. The result is a specific for sick headache, biliousness and constipa- tion. F. SPEICHER. Carelessness. “Ill never forget Bill Timmins,” said | the man who used to live in the far Northwest. “Bill was as game a man as ever lived and too generous to take ad- vantage.” | Democratic candidates. 'lectures them upon descending to person- “Isn’t he living now?” asked the listen- ler. who had been a good deal impressed | by the sadness of the narrator's tones. “No, I was on the coroner’s jury that [looked after Bill.” “What was the verdict?” “Died of carelessness!” “Carelessness! How?” “Got into a fight without a gun on | him.”—Denver Tribune. Ignorance of the merits of De Witt’s Little Eealy Risers is a misfortune. These little pills regulate the liver, cure headache, dyspepsia, bad breath, consti pation and biliousness. A. F. SPEICHER. Washington an Advertiser, When The American was first started, one hundred and twenty years ago to- day, George Washington was its largest advertiser. He had for lease ‘twenty thousand acres of land on the Ohio and Great Kanawha,” and is an inducement, he said: ‘‘And it may not be amiss fur- ther to observe, that if the scheme for establishing a new government on the Ohio, in the manner talked of, should ever be effected. these must be among the most valuable lands in it. not only on account of the goodness of soil and the other advantages above enumerated. but from their contiguity to the seat of government, which more than probably will be fixed at the month of the Great Kanawha ” What if he wonld return to earth, and see the Great West with its World’s Fair. and its millions of popu- lation!—Baltimore American.

A. F. SPEICHER. Two little boys, being anxious to make an honest penny, made a bucket of lem- onade each and stationed themselves on a corner to wait for customers. One had a sign over his bucket ‘‘5 cents a glass,” while the other sign re#d *‘2 cents a glass.” A stranger passed by. and think- ing there was a cnt-rate lemonade war in progress, decided to save 8 cents by buy- ing a glass from the 2-cent lad. After drinking a tumblerful, he said, ‘“‘My little man, why do you sell yours for 2 cents, while your rival sells his for 5 cents?” “0h,” said the youngster, ‘‘you see after I got mine made the puppy fell into it, and I had to reduce the price.” The gen- tleman retired into a neighboring alley and lost 2 cents.—Ex. One word describes it—*'perfection.” We refer to De Witt’s Witeh Hazel Salve, cures obstinate sores, burns, skin diseases and is a well known cure for piles. A. F. SPEICHER. Dr. Buckley, in the New York Chris- tian Advocate. says: Foreigners who come back through New York say of Chicago, “that it is as irreligious as Par- is, licentious as Vienna. as much engaged in gambling as Monte Carlo, and more drunken, and lax in administration of its statutes than any city in Europe.” We could not improve the quality if paid double the price. De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve is the best Salve that experi- ence can produce, or that money can buy. A. F. SPEICHER. The Elkton Whig and the News of the same place are waging war over the re- spective merits of the Republican and The Democrat The News, in an editorial ad- Editor Torbet, of the Whig, says: ‘‘Referring to your editorial ad- chief, couched as it is in language seem- ingly all your own, we insist that who- ever the author of it may be, it is certain- ly a heterogeneous conglomeration of in- congruities, a regular rhomboid, inclosed in an isosceles triangle, a pure parallelo- piped, trained in a trapezium, tough as a tetrahedron, queer as a quadrilateral, ig- norant as a icosahedron, dirty as a dia- gram, polluted as a parallelogram, rough as a right-angled triangle, piggish as a polygon, hoggish as a hypothenuse, treacherous as a trepezoid and drunk as a dodecagon.” alities. dressed to All the talk in the world will not con- vince yoy so quickly as one trial of De Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve for scalds, burns, bruises, skin affections and piles. A. F. SPEICHER. The man who wants to live happy should not care what every ‘Tom, Dick and Harry” has to say about him; one ex- alts him while another condemns him, so that it is about evenly divided. The man who has the nerve to press forward in the right, regardless of what other people say, is the man that succeeds.—Ex.
