THERE are more Worthless, useless nuisances of dogs in Patton than there are devils in Gehenna. THE matrimonial market is the only thing hereabouts not affected by the strike. Cupid is working overtime. THOSE “rare’’ June days have been a trifle too rarified the past week. Tarn on the heat, Mr. Weatherman. IF all the people who want to borrow money at the present time could do so, Patton would support a dozen banks. THIS is the eleventh week of the strike and the outlook for a settlement isn’t any brighter than it was April 1st. PENNYPACKER will have to organize anew lot of Cossacks. Most of his present ones will be in jail before long. EVEN the most pestiferous ‘knock- er’? could not say anything against the work of the Patton base ball club the past week. IT is stated that one Tom Lawson actually laughed out loud when he heard the result of the Deleware sen- atorial election. WHILE we are at it, why not go after “she express trust in a way that will do the most good—by establishing a parcels post systemn Boss Guffey has been getting his bumps good, hard, lively and frequent during the past few days. What are Cambria county Democrats going to do? FroM the evidence adduced, it ap- pears that some of the clerks of the Pennsylvania Railroad company had almost as large an income as President Cassett. A NEWSPAPER headline says that s#John D. Rockefeller’s character has undergone change.” Heaven knows it needs it bad enough. It couldn’t have been worse. MERCHANTS are doubly foolish to curtail their advertising during dull times. Then it is that they need all the business they can get and adver- tising is the logical way to secure it. THE chief difference between an Englishman and an American as given by Bishop Potter “is that the Ameri- can washes his dirty linen in public and the Englishman washes his in pri- vate.” INNOCENT people, and thousands of them, are suffering as the result of the coal strike. There ought to be some method devised whereby outsiders could be protected from the results of industrial upheavels. THE Barnesboro Star last week con- tained a very elaborate apology to the Patton base ball club, including a dec- laration by the editor that insofar as | will spend all of his waking hours and | p, Wolf says that the best way to create | the right to criticize was concerned Brother Miller, like Monte Christo, claimed the earth. THURSDAY was Flag day, our Nation- al emblem being 129 years old on that day. To our everlasting disgrace the day is not observed as it should be and something should be done to increase the interest in what ought to be an oc- casion of importance to every Ameri- can. IT has been suggested that Johns- town quit the Tri-State base ball league and give Patton a chance to represent Qambria county in the outlaw organi- zation. The team Patton has is im- measurably faster than the tailenders. The Flood city bunch is about in the ONCE upon a time a United States !stock in the sugar trust, but subse- | quent development proved that one of his servants had invested thousands lof dollars in these very desirable cer- | tificates. Which reminds us that per- haps President Oassatt, of the Pennsyl- vania railroad, may have adopted a like | | expedient in regard to coal company stock.

Continued from Page 1. whom came to her assistance, they arrived, however, Fazio had fled. He was arrested later, Mrs, Dumont said she was in a delicate condition at the time and violence used by the de- fendant injured her severely. Dr. Wood, of Barnesboro, where the case hails from, corroborated the woman’s testimony as to her injuries received at the hands of her assailant. A jury was called in the case of Jos. Rager, of Barnesboro, charged with manslaughter. The case grew out of the unfortunate occurrence at the Globe Hotel in Barnesboro March 24, when Rager, during a fight with Jas. | Donahue, of Patton, is alleged to have | thrown the latter from the hotel porch to the pavement, a distance of about eight feet, inflicting injuries which caused Donahue’s death at 2 o'clock the following morning. The case was opened for the com- monwealth by District Attorney Leech, after the following jury had been selected: John Bannon, Peter McNeil, Harry A. Lister, Thomas Carl, Andrew Box- ler, J. J. Reiman, Peter Stutzman,John Powers and L. J. Weber. Mr. Leech was assisted by ex-District Attorney Stephens. The defense was in charge of F. J. Hartman. The first witness called was the father of the dead man and he testitied to the age, habits and health of the deceased. Dr. McMillan testified as to the cause of death. He said the man received a fracture of the skull several inches in length across the back part of the skull and that the injury was received by falling on she brick pavement from the railing of the Globe Hotel. Dr. Wood corroborated the testimony of Dr. McMillan. Dennis Flynn stated that he had seen Rager and Donahue clinch several times and finally Rager pushed Dona- hue to the rail. Keeping one hand on his shoulder and with the other free, | Rager, according to Flynn, caught Donahue and threw him over the rail. Joseph Crowley, a boarder in the Globe Hotel, said that Rager had been invited out by Donahue. Frank Miles testified that both men had been drink- ing freely. For the defense Rager took the stand. He stated that Donahue had started the quarrel by calling him names and insisting that he should fight him. Rager said that a man named Clapp had accused him of being a coward for standing for such talk. The witness stated that he started for supper and as he went out Donahue grabbed him. As he pulled away from the man Rager said Donahue fell over the rail and it was with considerable effort that Rager was not pulled over with the deceased. Other witnesses corroberated this statement. The case was submitted to the jury without argument. The jury retired and in about 45 minutes returned a verdict of not guilty. The ‘defendant | was discharged. A petition. was presented at court asking that a rule be granted upon the Ebensburg Agricultural association to show cause why the organization should not be dissolved. Ira Bloom, of Ebensburg, is the petitioner. He sets forth that the Ebensburg Ag- ricultural association, in which he is one of the principal stockholders, was chartered for 15 years and that the charter of the said concern expired last March. Mr. Bloom holds a note against the association, and in the event of the dissolution of the said organization its property will be disposed of. The Eb- ensburg fair grounds and race track are included in the holdings of the as- sociation. The rule was granted and is returnable July 20. WRIT FOR HONGER Good Advice From O. F.

C.7T | Brady, says that of all the manifesta i tions of power he ever witnessed, from | an earthquake down, a cyclone is the | most appalling. The midnight black. ness of the funnel, the lightning dart. ing from it in inconceivable fierceness, the strange crackling sound from its bosom, the suddenness of its irresisti- ble attack, its incredibly swift motion, its wild leaping and bounding, like a gigantic beast of prey, the awful roa which follows, all this but feebly char- acterizes that strange ravager of the plains. He continues: The cyclone plays odd pranks. 1 have seen two horses lifted in air and carefully deposited, unharmed, in a field about an eighth of a mile away. I have seen chickens and geese picked clean of feathers and yet feebly alive. One house, I remember, had a hole ten feet in diameter cut out of its roof, as if by a circular saw. I have seen the black, whirling cloud lift a build ing and shake it to pieces, as one shakes a pepper box. worst cyclones I ever knew threw a heavy iron safe about as a child might toss a wooden alphabet block in play.
