How to Do It,

HOW 10 DO H.
1t is strange that persons who have
been drinking all their lives don't learn
to do it right. A friend of ours has
been at it seventy or eighty years, and
was never known to be drunk. His
favorite drink is grog, of which he takes
a wine glass, and then eats a cracker,
which he. says has tendency to wad
down the villainous vapors and keep
them from ascending into his brain.
Another wine glass full and another
cracker, aud so on till the grog is all
out, OF the drinker gets full. Grog is
whisky and cold water mixed, and is
for sale at all the groceries, taverns,
aud drug stores. Water need not be
added after the purchase.

m.v.,e .fHoep skirts.

Between nine and ten o'clock last
evening as two ladies were crossing the
stone bridge on Main street, they meet
two gentlemen about the centre. Libe
all gallant gentlemen they attempted
TO make room for the ladies to pass, but
the walk, as everybody knows who has
ever been on the bridge, is very narrow,
and consequently in passing you get
very close to one another. In the pres
ent case a foot of one of the gentlemen's
caught in the hoop skirt of the lady'S
and after struggling short time to free
himself he was thrown ont into the
middle of the bridge. He was badly
hurt, but he managed to get up and
leave muttsring to himself that he
would beware efhoop-skirts hereafter.

Henry alias Maj. Baldwin, who es-
capped from Jail in Marshall county about
a week ago, where he was confined on u
charge of murder, was captured yester-
day in Washington, Pa. We have been
unable to lealn any of the particulars
attending his capture, but presume
some of the officials of the latter place
had his description, which led to his
Identification and arrest. Superintend
ent McFadden of the Penitentiary left
for Washington yesterday for the pur-
pose of taking charge of him and bring
him to Moundsville.

in the most improved method, nd war

either in resisting fire or turning water.
The tar used is put through process
that frees it from oil and benzole, and
no matter how great the heat, it will
not run. 1t is equally efficient in roofs
of every conceivable pitch. Mr.. Crum-
hacker keeps on hand roofing cement
and cement for tanks and sidewalks of
the best quality, and for sale at the low

of fifteen years in Pittsburgh, and is the
