The GREkr HAIR PRoDUcER.-HAir Oils,
Pomatums and Pomades have had their day.
They belong to the musty past. Nobody
that understands the chemistry Of the hair
and the philosophy of its growth thinks of
using them. Instead of clogging the pores
of the scalp with thick onguents. and thus
obstructing the insensible perspiration,
which is essential to the health of the fbers,
we now tone the surface Of the head with an
iuvigorasing application which penesrates to
the roots of the hair and stimulates them in
the same way that the fertilizing agents
spread over the meadows stimulate the grass
roots and cause the blades to spring up In
myriads, coating the earth with verd
The invigorant besi adapted TO this purpose
is LYoE's KATHAIRON. 1t may well be call
ed the fertilizer Of the head. To the barren
scalp il communicates vegetative power. j
the bsir is dropping out or becoming dry
and withered, it arrests the process Of dilap'
idatiou or blight. The hair thickens anc
becomes glossy and flexible under its geuia
operation, and as q dressing it is unsp
preached by any preparation that has ye
been laid on the toilet of Fashion.

DEATH OF A CENTENARTAN.- We are
indebted to the Loretto correspondent of
the Herald for the following facts in the
life of Peter Kerrigan, who died at his res
idence in Allegheny township, on Wednes-
day, the 18th instant, at the patriarchal
age of 80 years and Z months. Mr.. Ker-
rigan was perhaps the oldest inhabitant in
the county. He was born in Virginia, in
May, 1913, and was the son of arevolution-
ary soldier. His father came to Pennsyl-
vania i'll 1884, and settled in Bedford coun-
ty, ON the Raystown branch of the Juniata.
From there he removed to Westmoreland
county, where Peter was married in 1906.
About 1908 the father and son settled near
Loretto, where the elder Kerrigan died in
1910. For several years Peter was enl-
ployed by Rev. Demetrius A. Gallitzin,
pastor of the Catholic church at Loret-
to, in experimenting his grist mill in the
vicinity of that place. For many years
Mr.. X. was very feeble and but seldom left
his house, and as old age increased his in
firmities, he became totally blind. He re-
tanned his faculties up to the moment of
his death, however, and passed away calm
ly, leaving behind him aname forindustry,
integrity and true Christian piety which
will long be held in grateful remembrance
by his neighbors and friends.

CHILD STOLES.-On Saturday evening
last, about eight o'clock, Rhetty, a twO-year
old daughter of Mr.. Vim. Mcdonald, resd-
ing Mifflin street, between 4th and 9th
streets, in this borough, was stolen from its
home, and carried around 70 the lot of Mr..
Th omas on Fifth street, where it was laid
and covered over with some straw. MIR. Nc
Donald was absent from home at the time
and Mrs. Mcdonald had gone up stairs but
a few moments before the child was stolen,
leaving one child sleeping on a lounge, and
the stolen baby awake and sitting on the
floor. She was up stairs but a short time,
and on coming down and finding her babe
stolen, she Immediately gave the alarm, and
the neighborS At once assisted in the search
The child was found by a passer-by, who,
whilst going along Fifth street, heard the
child crying, and was thereby attracted to its
whereabouts. The night was cold, and had
it not been discovered at the time, it would
no doubt have perished. Who the heartless
kidnapper was is now the mystery TO be
solved, and it is to be hoped that all clues
bearing upon the fiendish act may be CLEANED
and the guilty abductOr punished severely.

Fatal. ACCIDENT ON THE BELLS GAP
RAILRoAD.-On Monday lass young man
named Benjamin Bowers, residing with his
mother at Bells Mills, was killed on the
Bells Gap railroad. He was coming down
the heavy grade, III charge of a truck, at y
high rate of speed, although having been
previously cautioned not TO run fast. lgno-
rant of the fact that the progress OF the truck
that had preceded the one which he had
charge of had been impeded by coming in
contact with = snow-drift, young Bowers
dashed into ii with terrible crash, the con-
cussion throwing him forward on the front
car, from which he fell to the track. and his
body was run over by the car that he had
charge of, in turing him so severely as to cause
his death short time afterward. The acci-
dent occurred about three miles above Bell 8
Mills, and had the erect of driving the front
car through the snow drift, and being un-
manned started it down the mountain at a
terrific rate of speed, jumping the track at
Bells Mills, demolishing DIR. Clark's corn
crib, running over wood pile, and raZing

sUMssERHILL TWP, Dec. 16. 1872


Dear Freemdn-Edw. Grew, of this town
a terrible accident, by which he lost his right
hand, on Tuesday of last week. AS you
gave no particulars l supply them here
Mr.. q. was helping to operate 4 threshing
machine at the barn of Jas. Medium. The
machine in question Is a one horse tramper
which is stopped by means of a brake ap-
piled to the band wheel, the table being on
q level with the cylinder and the concave
placed over the cylinder. The horse power
had been stopped and the cylinder continued
to run with terrible velocity, when Mr.. Grew
observing some unthreshed rubbish on the
floor, picked it up and in the act of
pushing it into the thresher, when his thumb
was caught by the spikes and his entire hand
mediately summoned, and Dr. w. Lowman,
ofJohnstown, telegraphed for. 1t was found
necessary to amputate the arm above the
wrist which operation was performed by DR..
Lowman. Mr.. Grew was removed to his
home near Wilmore on the following day
and is doing as well as can be expected, and
we hope soon to have the satisfaction to
chronicle his recovery, as far as possible from
the effects of this distressing accident.
The epiZootic is epidemic here just now,
but of an exceedingly mild type, and no hor-
seS as yet have died from the dreaded disease.
We noticed by last weeks Freeman that
the editor had been soT-struck. Hope SON
stroke will be chronic in your family hereaf-
ter, and that the little editors may grow up TO
be as good and useful men as their father
Ahem
As we write the snow is falling thick and
fast, with good prospect for a continuation
of the supply, which is already equal to the
demand Yours, truly, SOLTERo.

Two of the party recently arrested for
ste ling goods from Pa. r. X. freight cars,
m ,naged to escape from the Hollidaysburg
4, a on Friday night last.
There was very mean rich man liv-
irp in this county at one time who COM
plained much of cold feet, SO his gentle
wife lit a fire under the bed in order to
warm his pedal extremities. 1t was a per-
feet success. He never again complained
of the frigidity of his hoofs and now she is
married to the agent of the company in
which the house was insured, and having
lots of money buys all her goods at
Thompson's.
How the report became current, or for
what purpose it was circulated other than
to injure the enterprise, we don't know,
but we are authorized to say that there is
no truth in the story that the Firenan's
Fair is designed to aid in the purchase of
library for the Presbyterian Sabbath
School. The library the firemen propose
to purchase is for the benefit of the public
eating or rejecting upon any particular
religion. Much less will it be for Sab
bath school of any kind.
Come to me, dearest, while the sleigh
bells are ringing, come where | wait thee
i'll silence alone come while the stars their
soft glances are fiinging from eyes that are
only less bright than thine own. If you
can't come yourself, send your sister, or
your mother, or your pap, or your big broth
er, or any of the family, or all of them, to
Myers d Lloyd's cheap store, for as sure
as you're there they have lots of nice goods
for the holidays, and if you don't come
soon they'll sell them to somebody else, for
such goods at such low prices don't need
to wait long for buyers. That's even SO.
-Ar. VIM. Have, a night foreman i'll
in one Of the Penna. railroad shops at the
outer depot, Pittsburgh, while engaged i'll
coupling two locomotives together, on Sun
day morning last, was caught between the
two engines and literally crushed to an in
distinguis liable mass, and of course killed
instantly. Mr.. Have was reared from boy
hood to manhood by Mr.. II. Dugan. decd
late of Wilmore, this county. and is well
known by many persons residing in that
vicinity. He was sober. industrious and
worthy man. and was held in high esteem by
the Company he had served for many years,
as well as by all who knew him. He has
left wife and three children.
