A four horse team belonging 10 William
Black, of near Schelsburg, Bedford county,
ran off, a few days ago while on the road
from Mann's Choice to that place. Mr.
Black jumped off the wagon, expecting to
stop bis horses but failed, and in few
minutes they We're far beyond his reach,
with his son sycd seveh'ycars clirging tena-
ciously to the boards. Before the runaway
horses were brought to a halt the boy fell
out of tho wagon, and was so badly injured
that he died in n few minutes.

other day in her husbands pocket which
gave her u great deal of uncasiness- She
studied the hyeroglylIics on them until her
head swan, but she could make neither

. kindly informed her that they were nothing
but tags cut from suit of elegant clothing

The Cambria Guards expec: to have a
gay and festive time at their picnic i'm the
delightful grove near the railroad station,
( on tomorrow week, July 3D., and hope that
everybody, the Latta Guards and City Band
, of Altoona included, will join item in the
. festivities of the occasion. The Ebensburp
I Silver Cornet Band will blow their level best
and an excellent string band will furnish
} the music for all who wish t. "trip the light

the pecuniary benefit of the ''sojer boys
A young man named Charles E. Pepper
day retired To his room in his fathers resi-
I dencc at Latrube. on Monday last and, in
/ the language of the j olinstowu Tribune pro-
ceeded TO pepper day light through his head
/ with pistol, but fortunately the ball, after
striking him in the middle of the forehead
glanced off and Indicted oaly n flesh wound.
/ Why he did it, or whether il preInedi-
/ tated or merely accidental, does not seem
/ to be KNOWN ~ certainty, but as he had
been drinking somewhat during the day, it
J is fair to presume that whisky was ut the
/ Cottom of the mischief.
! The preparations for the grand 3d of
( July picnic in Lloyd's fine grove, west of
/ town, move on apace, and the indications
are that il will he one of .he most enjoyable
and trust the best attended affairs of the
season. The intention of the picnic is to
raise funds TO refurnish the pastoral resi-
dence connected with the Catholic church,
and we certainly hope that the object will
be fully attained, not only because there is
- necessity for the work, but because il is
the first opportunity for public display o
good will towards the jealous, faithful and
eloquent young pastor, Rev: Father Boyle.
Had been aware of the fact last
week. we should have been glad to announce
the holding of 4 festival in the Court House
< ON Wednesday and Thursday evenings of
this week under the auspices of the Presby-
ieran Sabbath School. As it is. we can
only commend the good taste displayed in
: the fcstuoniug and decoration of the Court
room, the enterprise aud liherality mani
Tested in behalf of u worthy cause by provid-
ing so generously ard 50 abundantly for the
wants and enjoyment Of all, and Xpress the
hup- that the atfrir has been as renumerative
as it was certainly well conceived and well
carried ont.

"A little girl named Ryan, step-daughter
Of Nr. Jacob Iihblett, of Jackson township
was instantly killed, on Sunday evening

ries are in circulation as To how the accident

1t is sure pop that everything in p
newspaper does not please everybody and
. the same rule holds good in every branch of

many faces, has never yet fJiled to till the
Court House in this Place 10 overfiDwing
WHEREVER lie appeared in public on the stage,
and the simple announcements of the fact
that he is to give one of his popular enter
tainments ut the same place ON Friday even
ing next, July 2d; is guarantee sufficient
/ that our people will turn out en- 1ndsse to

is too stiugy to invest the small rittance
necessary To secure the enjoyment OF so
rich a treat as Cumical Comfy Invariably
serves up To his patrons; and the evidence
