t-SS1 The late ld-blooded murder, in the neigh
borhood of Shamokin, and the recent robberies in
the coal region, show most deplorable state of
morals in that part of the country. The following
alarming facts we take from the Shamokin Herald,
OF Thursday:
Last Saturday. Mr.. S. A. Bergstresser of Elys-
burg. was returning home from Mt. Carmel in his
buggy, with several hundred dollars of money As
he was ascending the same mountain, he saw three
vilalnous looking fellows ahead of him in the woods
and near where there turn in the road signal
ling each other as he neared them. At once he
took his revolver in one hand and putting the whip
to good strong horse with the other he passed the
turn just in time TO himself from the scOundrcls
They gave chase through the woods but came in too
late"
RoBBERY.-On Tuesday night, 18th inst, party
OF rutiians yariOusy estimated at from five to eight
entered the house OF Frank Getler butcher living
about four miles above this place, the road to MI
Carmel. They demanded his money upon which
Getler offered resistance. One of tie party then
fred a revolver at him when his wife rushing be-
tween them received the contents in her shoulder
She was severely but not fatally wounded. Geter
ut length broke away from the scoundrels and ran
out to obtain aid. The party then overpowered ct
lors hired man and proceeded to rifle the house.
They found only about $50 in the house, as Geter
had deposited about SiU0 in bank day before
This latter amount was doubtless what the robbers
were after, as they appeared to be parties well ac
qu9inled with the premises They are still at large
and unrecognized. They stole a gun and some
other articles in addition to the money,
! MuRDER.-0n Thursday evening, l4th inst, along
the railroad at Fulton Station, Charles Dolan de-
liberately shot John O'Donnell. Three shots were
fired all of which entered the body of O'Donnell,
He fingered until Friday morning when he died
from his wounds No immediate cause given
for this cold blooded murder. Dolan is represented
| as desperate man, whom ODonnell some time
ago offended and he took this method of revenge
Dolan fingered around the Station all Thursday
night, and Friday and Friday night, but was not
arrested. On Saturday morning he was reported to
issued for his apprehension Friday morning, still
through some culpable neglect or mismanagement
on the part of the officers of justice, it not exc
euted and the murderer now at large prepared to
do his bloody work over again in some other part
| of the country.

LIFE INsuRAScE.-What greater obligation can
there exist than for husband or parent to make
provision for the comfortable support of wife or
children who dependent upon his earnings for
subsistence that provision to take effect at The very
time they may most need such assistance, namely,
at the period of his death?
Wewill suppose man, thirty years of age, whose
income enables him to support his family in comfort
but is so limited not to allow him TO save more
than S23.6 year. 1t would be long time before
that sum, laid up yearly, would accumulate to any
thing like moderate support for his family at his
death; and should he die prematurely, he must
leave them in want by adopting the prudent course
of insuring his life, and paying that sum yearly to
the Office he secures, from the moment of the first
payment $1,000 to his family whenever he dies In
the same proportion smaller or larger sums may be
secured; man, aged thirty, may, for Si72 year,
insure $780, or for Sis year, he may insure $4,000
