ALMOST A FATAL MISTAKE The Phil
ipsburg Journal says ~ man named
Isaac Rothrock, living near Grahamton,
Clcarfeld county, arose from his slumbers
on Sunday morning, April 10Th, and as was
his custom proceeded to the cupboard to
get his 'bitters" Being no doubt aware
that there is many slip 'twixt the cup
aud the lip, - and desirous that there should
be none in his case, hs determined to take
it ''by word Of mouth" l. e., cut of the
bottle, and seizing it he took long and a
strong pull. Imagine his horrcr, when,
upon setting the bottle down, he discovered
he had treated his inner man to a drarght
Of poison for badhugs instead of poison for
men, Two bottles, much alike, were in the
cupboard, one containing whisky, and the
other The quicker poison, and in his haste
he had taken drink out of the wrong bot
tie. Physicians were called in, antidotes
were applied, aud at last accounts he was
slowly recovering"

To BE BUILT.-We notice that the Ben
netts Branch OF the Allegheny Valley Rail
road, 90 miles east from Redbank station is
to be put under contract shortly. This road
will pass through the western part of Clear
field county, thus opening new outlet for
much valuatlc timber that is now almost
inaccessible to market. Our friends in
that section Of the county have cause for
congratulation over their prospect OF rail-
road communication with the outer world
by the completion Of the BenEett's Branch
road.
