There will be picnics enough in this
Z vicinity tomorrow to meet all demands
two of which, the Catholic and the military,
Will be open for the patronage of the public,
and will each no doubt furnish ample en-
joyment for the money invested. We hope

I We see the name of our good old friend
I Henry Fettinger, Esq, of Altoona, mem
I toned rs the proper person TO nominate for
, the position of Associate Judge on lie Demo
/ cratic ticket. OF course u nomination is not
equivalent to an election over In Blair coun-

! is that Democratic war-horse, ''Old Fet."
| Put him on the track and let him try it any
/ how.
/ Don't forget the grand double headed
I celebration CT the Fourth of July at Chest
Springs, on to-inorrow and Monday next,
q and don't forget to circulate in that direc-

racing and all the pcknickian delights pc
culiar to such festivities vii! lend their
charms to the auspicious occasion--that is, if
two days merry making can be called an
occasion.

I stealing his way from Philadelphia to his
home in Pittsburgh, attempted 70 get on a
freight train at the Cambria borough siding,

over Ivy the train. One arm and one Log
were terribly crushed and it is thought that
lie cannot survive. He is now in charge of
Poor Director Bloch.
Now that excursion tickets can be had
via Pa. r. r., it is fair to infer that many
people will rush down to ,Johnsto vn during
the next few days. To all such of the mas

where we are sure all will find clothing to
please and prices cheap enough to tempt
them to buy, II not full suit, at least some
needed article of wearing apparel.
How doth the busy little pig improve
each shining hour, and gather sausages ALI

As the days leugthen, it is n fine thing
to get UP early in the morning. Rise with
the lark That is, soon as the lark rises,
wasen your wife and tell her it is time to
build Il fire. If she makes any objections
you can refer her to 4 dozen works on the
benefit of early rising. Any man who cares

tcrest in hearing her around the house by
daylight of q summer morning, getting up Il
red hot stove and warming his coffee and
toast. There is nothing like it-no, nothing
"A gentleman named Stiles, who resides

The boy stood near the sinking shaft
and bitter tears he shed; we eyed the young

type of woe; asked why his unhappiness-
hls voice came sad and low. And while the

and sell at lowest figures every article in
their line. 241 and 243 Main street, Johns
