A Nownjf Hlringof Happenings l'rtiiu the Old llorougii, Thoro Is not a breese stirring on the Tamaqua political field M yet. Even Allen, tho candidate for Commissioner on the Be publican ticket, is as meek as a lamb. He has an Idea that ho can win hands down, but ho must not be too sure. There Is a disposition among the Tamaqua Democrats to vigorously appose a ro-iionilna-tlon for Bcltly. In fact tho ax seems to bo taking a keen edge all over the county and it would not bo surprising lo see him defeated. Tho announcement of tho death by drown ing of A. L. Lutz at Nowata, Indian Terri tory, recalls to mind that gentleman's visit to Tamaqua a fow weeks ago. His daughter resides at tho latter placo and tho visit, so rumor bus It, was duo to a desiro expressed by the daughter to live with tho father In the West. As tho story goes, plans wcro secretly a-rangod for tho girl to escapo, but they wcro discovered by tho mother before they could bo carried out and Miss Gcrtrudo, tho laughter, was forthwith locked In her room. Tho sensation caused by this Intelligence leaking out was discussed by every tonguo and tho father, learning of his daughter's fate, hurried to his far western homo. Tho nows of his drowning reached Tamaqua on Wodncsday and now the go-sips aro hard at work rehashing tho past. Tho deceased was a brother of Amandns Lutz, proprietor of the Mansion Uouso, in Tamaqua. Ho owned a largo farm at Nowata covering 7,000 acres. His oetato Is valued at $00,000. Nothing has so far been learned of his will. Tho knitting mill has resumed operations after an idleness of four weeks. Tho round houso, one of Tamaqua's land marks, has been torn down to,mako room for a larger and moro modern structuro, but on nccouut of the P. & 11. Company's prosont embarrassing position work on tho now building has been postponed indefinitely. It is moro than likely that tho Tamaqua School Board will erect n new school building in tho spring. Tho present crowded condi tlon of all tho schools and the increasing attendance each year makes it imperative It is whispered that tlio directets aro now looking for a site. Tho production of "Tho Country Squire" at Allen's opera house last Thursday evening was a fako. It was advertised asan auxiliary to "The Old Uomostead," which drow for it ono of the largest houses over soon in Tamaqua. Tho company makes very long jumps, coming hero from Eastou aud from here going to tho western part of tho Btato. It Is fortuuato for itself that it did not tour tho county. A largo number of our pooplo have been to the big Fair and a number aro going next month. Merchants Schcid and Losos will Icavo next week.

Tbo Record has been informed that several of Jioko Smith's ponslou spies aro operating In aud nbout Wilkos-Barre, looking up pretexts to deprive tho old soldiers of their pensions. Thoeo fellows know what needed by tho Democratic administration aud of course act accordingly. If a veteran. who has been shattered by rebel bullets in defense of his country, is seen spading his little garden or mending a pair of old shoos, ho is forthwith rcportod to tho department and his pittanco reduced. Tho fellows who do tho spying, as a rule, belong to tho class who shirked their duty when the country needed them. They have no sympathy with tho men who left their wives and children to become marks for traitors' bullets, aud they earn their Judas silver by robbing Union veterans of that which is justly duo them. But Hoko Smith comos from Georgia, aud ho of course can sco no roason why tho country should tako caro of tho men who whipped his friends, tho rebels, back into tho Union. Willea-Barre Record.
