The Erie Observer says: Mr.. John
Davis, of Youngsville, lost a valuable
COW few days since. After being gone
nine days she returned, poor and nearly
starved, with the end of her tail gone
Two or three men started at once on her
back track, suspecting foul play. The
trail could be followed, as it had been
raining, and the cow was tracked nearly
a mile into the woods and the mystery
solved. Her heavy tail while wet had
whipped around a young tree and fast
ened. and she faced toward home and
stood there unable to unwind it, and the
pulling had made sore place for the flies
to work in, aud by the ninth day the end
came off aud the COW came home, leaving
part of her tail hanging to the tree.

Sells Brothers Quadruple
Alliance.

Show literature is standard
article of modern journalism. Rec
ognizing this fact, the manager OF
the above named establishment has
elaborated q portion Of this issue
with an original illustrated article
setting forth a list of attractions
quite in keeping with the quantity
of newspaper territory he covers.
Our readers will do we'll to give
this advertisement a critical exam
ination, because it contains an array
of professions not equaled by the
performance of any other show
establishment that has or will visit
rs during the season, and because
this Quadruple Alliance has a rep
utation for coming nearer what they
advertise than any other company
in the country, the proprietors
doing business on the principle of
first securing q good show, then
advertising it well. Hence we
have a decidedly friendly inclina>
ton toward anything to which the
name of the Sells Brothers is at:
tached by authority.
Next Friday week the show pro-
cession, headed by Prof. Theodore
Longs famous military brass band,
will enter our town and make a
public display unusually handsome.
In the afternoon the people will be
invited to present themselves at
the entrances to the "canvas city,
in which they will find wonderful
geological display,and will be afford
ed an opportunity to witness the
gymnastic, the acrobatic and eques-
trian feats of the circus company.
Quite naturally it may be expect
ed that large crowd from the sur
rounding country will be in attend
ance, and we congratulate hotel
keepers, venders of gingerbread,
and dispensers of pop and thin lem
onades, on the harvest of shin plOs-
ters that they are about to gather,
The inducements to all class es of

a very large and respectable audi
ence may be looked for both day

County Printing &.

The Commissioners of Mon
roe county, this State, have
done a very sensible act in
passing a resolution and plac.
ing it on the journal of their
proceedings, forbiding the pay.
ment Of any money to parties
outside of that county for any
printing done for any county
officer in that county T.; and any
county officer having printing
done outside of the county for
the use of his office, shall pay
the bill out of his own pocket.
This is a very sensible act Of
the Monroe County Commis.
sioners, and one which might
be followedi with profit in
every county; for it is a mis-.
taken economy which levys a
tax upon the people of a coun.
ty to foster the growth Of cities
without their limits.
Home industry should al
ways be patronized lin prefer
ence to going abroad, for it is
this which builds cities and
makes them prosperous. --[Piq,
