Hon. John Porter, as the story goes,
has bought from the Cambria Iron Com
pany the lot of ground now occupied by
him as lumber yard, corner of Washing
ton and Clinton streets, JohnstOwn, paying
| therefor the snug sum of $4,000.
The Central Pennsylvania Agricul-
tural Society, of Altooua, offer So, 600 as
premiums at their coming fair, for fast
horses. Among these is a premium of
81 900 for horses that never trotted better
than 2:40.
The Pennsylvania Fish Commissioners
have purchased the famous Donegal Springs
as Matching house. The board has com
pleted the stocking of the north branch of
the Susquehanna and the Lehigh with
black bass. one thousand of these fish being
placed IN the two streams. Another one
hundred have been put in the dam at Will
transport In the course of September all
the waters in the State available for the
purpose will be stocked with bass. During
July two million seven hundred and fifty
thousand shad were Matched in the Sus
quehanna at Newport. The Sacramento
salmon and trout which were put in a
year ago, have thrived wonderfully, and
the board has decided to hatch a large
quantity of them as soon as the State
Matching house is completed.
Mr.. Valentine Luttringer of thi.
place, and MIR. Denny, of Altoona, met
with an accident at Cresson on Saturday
evening last, which might have resulted
very seriously, if not fatally. to one or
both OF them. While walking on the
pike few rods east of the culvert or bridge
over which the Pennsylvania railroad is
constructed at that place, young man
riding on horseback came along in the
rear at quite rapid pace, the horse run
nmg against them and knocking both of
them down. A train was passing over the
railroad at the time, and owing to the
noise 1T Occasioned the above named gen
tlemen failed to hear the approaching ami
nal and its careless rider until they re-
ceived the shock Mr.. Denny received
quite painful injuries on his right arm
and side, but Mr.. Luttringer escaped with
few slight scratches.
The JohnstOwn Tribune of last Mon
day says: ga very precocious youth of
fifteen years tried to commit suicide at the
house of his parents, in Conemaugh Bor-
ough, on Saturday evening last. His sup
per was not prepared for him immediately
upon his arrival, and, instead of iawinC
the old woman he merely went up stairs
and tried to choke himself to death with a
woolen comforter. Not being able to sue
ceed III this laudable undertaking, he then
procured BEDFORD, and making a moose
he adjusted it around his neck. and tried
TO suspend himself from the bed-post. He
might possibly have been able to put a pc
nod to his existence this time, but his
mother went up stairs to inform the Young
man that supper was ready and discovered
him Just In time to prevent the accomplish
ment OF his rash purpose. A good strong
diet of hickory rod is all that this progress
sive youth needs to cure him for his desire
for violent death

MEETING OF THE CENTENNIAL EXECU-
TIVE COMMITTEE.-'rhe Centennial Ex-
ecutive Committee of the State of Penn
sylvania held their first meeting at the
Logan House, in Altoona, on Tuesday
afternoon of this week. Among the mem
bers in attendance were Ex-Governor Pol
lock. Ex-Governor Bigler, Hon. John Scott,
Hon. L. A. Mackey and other distinguish
cd gentlemen, all of whom exhibited a
warm feeling of interest in the success of
the great Centennial Celebration which is
to be held i'll Fairmount Park PhiIadel-
pha, in the year 1876.
At their meeting on Tuesday the Ex-
ecutive Committee passed a number of
resolutions urging upon the people of the
State, outside the city of Philadelphia, to
appropriate n half million dollars to the
Centennial project, deeming that sum to
be moderate one for the purpose and
trusting that it would be promptly secured.
y number of district committees and sub
committees were appointed for the pur-
pose of apportioniHg to the several towns
districts and wards the proper share of the
whole amount assessed upon the several
counties on The basis of $780, 600 for the
State. The stock is ten dollars per share
20 per cent. of which is payable on sub
scription, or in a brief period thereafter
ard the balance upon three months notice
in the years 1874 and rs. For the pur-
pose of equalizing the position of subscrib-
ers to the stock, six per cent. interest will
be allowed on all amounts paid in till the
first of May, 1876.
We trust that the people of Cambria
county will not fall whit behind those of
their sister counties in promptly subscrib-
ing for their appOrtioned amount of Cen
tennial stock. The celebratian should be
made grand success, and from recent de-
velopments we feel assured that the man.
agement intend making it just what it
should be. Among the members of the
District Committee we notice the name of
Mr.. Geo. +. Bates, of Johnstown. for the
Eighteenth District.

THAT FRoG.-We have been requested
by the gentleman who is most mixed up in
the matter, to say to the local editor of the
Altoona Tribune that his account of the
frog catching which was recently attempt
ed in this region, is 'f1at, stale and un-
profitable" when compared with the fear
ful reality. 1t is just rs utterly impossible
for him or any other man fifty and ade-
quately to describe that mill-dam adven-
ture, as it would be ito gild refined gold,
to paint the lilly or add perfume to the
violet" To be fully appreciated. requires
it to have been seen in all the immense pro-
portions of its unsurpassed folly and alb
surditY.

House BURNED.-Yestsrda morning,
about o'clock, the new frame dwelling
house of Mr.. James Maloney, of this place,
situate on the south side of Lloyd street,
between Centre and Julian streets, IN the
West Ward, was entirely destroyed by tire.
The fire was first discovered by Mr.. Ma
loney himself, who was very i'll at the time
and was the only occupant of the house.
The wind being from the southeast, large
nakes of burning shingles, gradually dying
out, were blown so far as Main street, but
the air being damp and heavy, they were
extingulshed almost as soon as they touched
the roofs of the intervening buildings. All
the household effects were consumed,
amounting TO about two hundred dollars.
mere was an insurance ON the property,
but we do not know its amount. The orr
gin of the fire is not definitely knows.

RIGHT ON THE RECORD.-Now and then
n rumor reaches the public ear that some
body, generally resident of the rural dis
tricts, has been "taken in and done for" on
a sewing mac hine, or some other labor-saV-
ing invention. In few instances these dis
honest dogdges have been ventilated through
the newspapers, one or two cases having re-
Gently been reported, wherein sewing ma
chine agent is said to have been granted the
privilege of leaving machines at certain
houses until he would call for them, receiv-
ing in return what purPorted TO be an &C
acknowledgements of such fact, duly signed by
the proprletOrS of such houses, but what
afterward proved to be exemption notes,
payable within specified time, We say
stories of this kind have been told time and
again, but whether true or false 1t is not our
purpose now to inquire. We merely wish
to say that, If true, Mr.. NJ. l.. Brown, of this
place, agent for the renowned and unsur
passable Singer Sewing Machine, is not the
man who did the swindling. He has ma
chine that can and does recommend itself,
and he has come among Us to make an hon
est living in an honest way, and would not
resort to- any disreputssble dodges if a for
tune could be made in the operation. We
know these statements to br facts, and while
we can truthfully say, after an experience
of several years in our own family, that the
Singer machine Is without a superior, we can
lust emphatically declare that Mr.. Brown is
above and beyond Il mean or mercenary act
of any kind. He believes, as we believe,
that No family should do without a sewing
machine and thus believing he offers, on the
most liberal terms, machine that never has
and never will fail to give entire satisfar-
ton in every instance, and if the parties
whom he solicits do not see fit to purchase
that is the end of the transaction. He deals
fairly and squarely, and deserves to be dealt
with in like manner. Let him he encouraged.
