The Herald man goes into exstacies over
the result. among other things, of some elec
tion which he imagines was held in the State of
Indiana. Will he please inform us when it
WAS held and what officers were voted for We
believe this is the year of grace 1871. The
Herald man seems to think otheru ise. "a
LITTLE learning" etc.
"A young man named Storm wss terribly
injured by tree falling upon him, if We are
rightly informed, at Flynus log Job, in Chest
township. on Thursday of last week. He was
still living OH Sunday last, we believe, but con-
siderng his injuries it did not seem possible for
him to survive very long. and the probabilities
that he is dead ere this.
When you go to Geis 4 Fosters big store
10 Johnstown to buy goods, which YOU ought
to do and no doubt will do, never let on about
their big advertisement having been omitted
foT tie last two weeks, but 90 on and buy big
till of superb goods. which they can always
sell very cheap, pay the cash, and then tell us
il you haven't made nice thing of it.
MIR Ss muel Carothers, of Orbisonia Hunt
ingdon county while engaged putting in a shaft
went into the wheel pit of Orbisous mill in

Will. j. Magellan, once an Ebensburg
boy, now and a resident of Woodvale,
had his right foot badly crushed by the reverse
bar of his engine OH the Pa. R R., few days
ago, in consequence of tho ratchet failing to
hold the bar III its proper place. thus causing it
to fly back and catch Mr.. MS foot with the

blesorhe pet for some time to come.
The celebrated Howe Sewing Machine
for which V. S. Barker of this place is the
agent, was awarded the first premium at the
JOhnstown Fair last week. This is a big thing
for the Howe, but it is northy of all s1ca hon
ors. Valie sells the Howe machine on easy
terms, rents them by the month, and is
ready to prove the superiority of the Howe in
all emergencies and under all circumstances.
The Herald's Johnstown corresDonden t
tells about old man who Was killed by the
hundred yards of the same place where the old
woman was killed, as reported by our CORES
pondent, " Rob Roy but he says he failed to
learn the unfortunate nan 5 name. We doubt
the story, we feel sure our correspondent
would have learned the fact il there any
truth in it.
The barn of Mr.. Sebastian Hol.z in Chest
township, with all il contained. consisting of
his entire summers crop OF produce. hay, etc I,
was destroyed by fire on Friday afternoon last.
ti,reshing machine was also burned, and one
n perished in the flames. The fire com
muuicated BY a spark blown from burning
tree in a clearing near by. As Mr Holtz is a
pour man, and as his loss is very heavy for him, m,
there being no insurance. We cannot too ear
nezIIy commend the effort row making for his
relief. ALI solicited should freely contribute
their mite for so deserving al object.
The most appalling catastrophe that has
evTr visited any city Of modern times has just
laid waste fully two-thiris of the great city of
Chicago, and although we devote much of our
space TO the details OF the terrible conhagration,
not half the tale OF horror has been told. From
every city, town, village and hamlet in the land
should come pecuniarv aid for the thOusaL ds
upon thousands of suffering and starving people
now begging for assistance in that fire scourged
city, and We suggest that in all the churches Of
Ebeu-burg and elsewhere collections be tax en-
up TO morrow to assist the stricken ones OF
Uhcag 90 in their great and unpa ralleled distress
Lloyd is having erected as summer resort
near the station, in this place, is being pushed
onward to completion at rapid rate. W hen
finished it will be the largest and handsomest
building in our town, and the fine groves and
excellent springs close ut hand will add much
to its attractions as place o sojOurn for sum
mer visitors. Mr.. Lloyd deserves much credit
for the energy and public spirit he is manifest
ing, and we are led to believe that If Ebeus-
burg had few more such enterprising citizens
it would not long remain the one horse village
it now is nor feel that the county seat was the
only seat to sit down on contentedly.
