TEE details of the great robbery Of the
Northampton Bank are startling. That
such an act Of outrage and crime could
be perpetratad, and one ndllton Of money
and bonds could be forced from the
vaults Of a bank and carried away with
out. a clue to detection, in the midst
Of city, seems sufficient to
appall men having valuable property in
such form of securities. Where can
safety be found for such property, when
banks are thus liable to be plundered by
a few men at any time during the night
seasone
There are circumstances Of a sus-
picious character connected with this
robbery, that it would behoove those In
interest to have thoroughly investigated.
Where was their city police? Why was
there no watchman at that bank? How
came it to pass that the bank lost
80 little, and the special depositors
lost 50 muchg How could it be known
to thieves and burglars outside that
such immense deposits of negotiable Sc
curities were lodged there? When
cashiers are liable to be seized, bound, :,
gagged, and the bank keys taken from
them, what means of security can be
devised to protect community from the
repetition of such outrages and individ-
uals from ruinous loss?

Court CuIlings.

The case of James Harpe, indicted for
murder In the first degree in the killing
Of Herman Weber at Newtown, last No.
vember, was taken up yesterday. A
question arose as to the feasibility OF
d1schafging the jury and continuing the
case, as Mr.. Hopkins, one Of the jurors,
was subject to an attack of quinsy,
which would prevent MIN from attend.
Ing, and as. there was no provision for
substituting a juror in his place, Mr.
go on with the case, provided he
was allowed to take medicines
when necessary. The, case pro-
ceeded. Mr.. Baker opened the case
by reading the Indictment. Major
blackburn made the topening state
ment on part Of the defense. Michae
Bolan was the first witness sworn, and
testified that Weber, the murdered man,
on the evening of the killing struck
Harpe with a poker, the blow causing
MIN to fall; that after supper Harpe was
looking tor Weber with a large-sized
revolver; that he found deceased in the
drugstore; that Weber jumped out and
said "Here l am. Jim Harpe, shoot now
if you wilt" that Harpe ran TO the door
an fired.
DR.. w. w. Highland was sworn and
stated that he was called upon to dress
the wound of Harpe, who twice stated
that he would kill the deceased. Ad-
journed.
Peter Diehl, Of Munroe County, filed
his petition ia bankruptcy. Liabilities,

INFORMATION from financial circles in
Europe shows that our American securi-
ties are now much in demand there.
This would indicate some degree OF pub
lie apprehension Of general European
war, and hence desire to place invest
ments In the United States, as far away
from the commissions that threaten their
safety as possible. Who knows but that a
European war may yet be the means of
enabling this country, as neutral in
that strife, to obtain the gold and silver
wherewith to resume specie. payments,
and put our currency and credit on
sound footing. Such things have hap
pened in our history heretofore, and may
happen again. .t-f

sWINDLING A MINISTER.
A Stranger, and He Was Taken II

A Stranger, and He Was Taken I'm.
A. snort time since st. Paups p. e.
Church, of Newport, extended call to
Rev. Mr.. Pettus, Of Paducah, KY, and
last Sunday the reverend gentleman
came up on a tour of inspection. He
preached sermon for the congrega-
tion, and after, service the brethren
crowded around him with earnest
solicitations for him to dine with them.
In the midst OF their entreat1es q
young man well dressed and of gen.
teel appearance rushed up and intro
duclng himself as a representative
minister to dine at their house.
The latter invitation was promptly
accepted, and the young man departed
with his company. They had not pro-
ceeded very far when the preachers
companion was seized, instantane ously,
with most excruciating attack Of tooth
ache, which set him to hopping around
on the pavement like flea on a hot skill
llet.
"Oh, OUCH" he shouted, ST can't move
la foot further. PHI have to 60 straight
into this dentist shop, and have the eter-
nally dashed thing pulled out. But" he
| exclaimed, Strengthening up anu 5barIn
the minister in the face. 81 haven't got
a red with me-"
| The good preacher straightway drew
out his wallet and handed the youth 70,
lremarking that he would wait outside
until the dental feat was accomplished.
The dental feat was accomplished, and
numerous other feats were accomplished
while the minister stood on the side
walk, with visions of roast pullets and
other delicious viands floating over his
mind, and yet the brave youth with the
aching molar did not come. Time sped
Iaway; the dinner hour passed on, and
tstill the preacher clung to mis- post as
/ valiantly as the boy stood ON the burn
ing deck, and still the man with ths
throbbng jaw did not show himself.
Long and earnestly the preacher gazet
upon the door Of that dental shop, bu
his guide did not come out, ana he neyel
has come out, for he went out the bael
way. And thus it was that the min
lister lost s., which he had, and |
most excellent dinner, which he didn'
} have. ts-t "a NY ss
lI From description given of the youn,
gentleman, IL is supposed. that he is th,
same man who victimizsd Rev. Mr.. Ell
! ia similar manner some time since.

Mr.. II. r. STEVENSON; Dear Sir-I will most
cheerfully add my testimony to the great num-
ber you have already received in fayol of your
great and good medicine, VEGETlNE, for L do
not think enough can be said in its praise. for
L was troubled over thirty years with that
dreadful disease, Catarrh, and had such bad
coughing spells that it would seem as though
could never breathe any more, and VEGE-
TINE has cured me; and do feel to thank 60 /
all the time that there is so good medicine as
VEGBTINE, and also think it one of the best
medicines for coughs and weak sinking feel
lngs at the stomach, and advise everybody to.
take the VEGETINE, for can assure them it is
one OF the best medicines that ever was.

THE political aspect Of Europe looks
more and more warlike. That Russia is
arming quietly and almost secretly has
been well ascertained. The Sultan
seems determined to reject all advice
good or bad, and act upon his own ideas
in regard to the insurrection of his Eu-
ropean Provinces. Austria is becoming
uneasy; and the eagle eye OF Bismarck
is scanning every movement with the
most jealous interest.

The Grand orchestra Concert.

No higher compliment could have been
paid Manager Ballenberg than the pres
ence OF SO large an audience on such a
night. That SO many people would
brave the storm to hear the Cincinnati
Grand Orchestra is not simply a compli-
ment to the excellence of its perform
ance, but it shows how much apprecia-
tion our community really has Of good
music.
Itis hardly necessary to say that an
audience assembled under such circum-
stances was closely observant, critical,
and in full sympathy with the music.
The programme, as published by us
yesterday, was rendered not merely sat.
isfactoriiy, but in a mastery style, and
there is in musical circles feeling oi
pride stronger than ever in favor Of the
Cincinnati Grand Orchestra.

and cure such diseases, restoring the pa
tient to perfect health after trying dif-

Why IS this medicine performing such
great cures? 1t works in the blood, in the Cir
culating fluid. 1t can be truly called the Great
Blood Furiher. The great source Of disease
originates in the blood, and no medicine that
uoes not act directly upon it, to purify and
renovate, has any just claim upon public at
tention.
