to grace.
Whoever dumped that lot of potatoes
out on Walnut street, just a little

ought to be arrested, fined and requir-

worse than rotten potatoes, and the

grounds for sueh material.

It is related that Dr. Bogle was once
a witness in Topeka, and was asked to
remain about the court room after he
had been on the stand. “I wish you to
excuse me, Judge,” he said, addressing
the court. “I am a physician over at
Atchison and have a number of patients
whe I am afraid will get well on me if
I remain away too long.” He was ex-
cused.

night. Miss Edith Lichliter has been
employed to teach the school taught
last term by Miss Jenet McKinley, who
has been hired as prineipal for the
coming term. Otherwise there will be
no change in the teaching force, as the

signed to treat throat, lung and bron-

tive Honey and Tar is the original

A Kansas City physician has discov-
ered that high collars worn by women
produce cancer of the throat, and the
Hopkins Journal adds that low-necked
dresses produce pneumonia, corsets
produce heart disease and shortness of
breath, long skirts gather up germs of
all infectious diseases, thin soles pro-
duce. consumption, tight shoes cause
the toes to grow together, and looking
at bright millinery causes sore eyes.
Women should be careful about these
things. :
Itin a kind of bilious food,
You wish an aid to digest food,
No other pill is half so good,

sicken, but impart early rising energy.

A.F. John, the coal operator, two
weeks ago closed out the last of his
eosl holdings in Somerset county re-
maining after his sale last fall, the
Quemahoning Valley Mining Company
taking the property for a nice sum.
Mr. John says he has not determined
just what he will do. One or two local
people have made him an offer for his
fine Main-street home, and the owner’s
answer is that he will sell any property
he has provided he gets his price. As
for moving away to Philadelphia or
any other city, Mr. John says that for
the present, at least, Johnstown is
good enough” for him.—Johnstown
Tribune.
A reliable man from Greenville town-
ship stated in the postoffice, some days
ago, that the supposed victim of small-
pox that was recently sent to that
fully recovered, that the eruption had
all disappeared and left neither scales
nor scabs. He got the information di-
rect from the victim’s father, he said,
and that ought to be good authority.
One can readily imagine about how
much smallpox there was about the
case, and it is more than probable the
whole thing was another cry of “wolf”
when there was no “wolf.” The fam-
ilies under quarantine have all been
released, and we suppose the borough
will be called upon to pay a needless
bill.
The July “Arena” which opens the
thirty-fourth volume of this magazine
is one of the strongest and most
thought-compelling numbers of this
well-known review that has ever ap-
peared. Perhaps the most important
feature is the opening contribution in
a series of papers on “The Economic
Struggle in Colorado,”'by the eminent
legal authority, the Hon. J. Warner
Mills. Unlike most legal writers, Mr.
Mills possesses'a fascinating style, and
unlike most present-day discussions of
evil conditions, these papers are far
more than mere historical recitals of
‘facts. With the broad grasp of a true
philosophical statesman he has laid
hold of the subject, and shows the
root-causzes that have produced the re-
actionary, unrepublican and dangerous
social and political conditions which
are fast assuming such colossal pro-
portions throughout the Republic. No
one interested in our great nation
should fail to read | these papers.
Big Pay by Southern Pipe Line
Company.
The pipe line now being laid through
this locality by the Southern Pipe Line
Company has given employment to
many men. On Monday and Tuesday
the company paid over 500 men, at the
Valley house, in this borough, and the
money paid out footed up to over $17,
000. This is the fourth line the com-
pany has laid through this vicinity, and
each time it has put much money in
circulation here.
A SURPRISE PARTY.
A pleasant surprise party may be
given to your stomach and liver, by
taking a medicine which will relieve
their pain and discomfort, viz: Dr.
King’s New Life Pills. They are a
most wonderful remedy, affording sure
relief and cure, for headache, dizziness
and constipation. 25c. at E. H. Miller’s
drug store. 8-1
Bad Man Captured.
On Monday afternoon Chief of Police
M. D. Thomas made a valuable capture
when he “nabbed” the notorious* Jake”
Lowery who was wanted on the allega-
tion of having had a hand in the brutal
beating administered to Mr. Engle, a
working miner residing north of
Huntsrick hill, onthe Meyersdale road.
The beating took place last winter
while Engle was on his way from work
and was attacked by several striking
miners. “Jake” Lowery is said to have
had a hand in the beating, and as he
was a fugitive from justice, Officer
Thomas arrested him on sight and
locked him up until the Meyersdale
authorities sent Constable Swindell
here to escort the captive to Meyers-
dale. We understand that Lowery has
given bail for his appearance at court.
It is said that a reward had been of-
fered for the arrest of Lowery, and if
that is the case, Officer Thomas is
clearly entitled to it. Lowery had
been working on the pipe line, and was
captured when he came to town, Mon-
day, for his pay.
