Petty thieving is becoming quite
common of late throughout PennS
Valley, and the frequency and bold
ness of these depredations, occurring
mostly at night, are not only Il
scource of annoyance, but u positive
loss which the Victims in many
cases, can lily afford TO bear.k What
can be done to abate the growing
evil :?
On Friday night some parties
crossing Brush Mountain at Cross
Road School House, broke into the
shoe shop of Peter w. Zeigler and
robbed it of quite lot of leather be-
longing to the customers OF Mr..
ZeiSier, and nearly all the tools and
lasts in the shop. Several cellars
and spring houses were also robbed
the same night, most likely by the
same persons.
The Reporter has no less than four
items similar to the above for sim
gle week. Beginning with Monday
night 1t says an attempt was made
to enter the dwelling of Wm. Il.
Shoop, of Centre Hall, by boring
several holes around the staple that
fastens the cellar door, but the nc.
tempt failed. Some night, no doubt
same party, stole from Rev. w. u.
Fishers buggy, next door to Mr..
Shoop, a good lap robe, apron and
buggy curtains. On the same night
DIR. AleXander's stable in Centre
Hall, was maliciously entered and q
sett of harness and fynet badly cut
and mutilated.
Strohm's Store in the Loop was
robbed Monday night, the door was
bored open and goods to the amount
of $25 were stolen. ~ ~ ~
Two hams were recently stolen
from Amos Oberdorf'S smoke house.

which is rapidly approaching com

In spreading Iii nself on the recent

man piles the honors mountain high
upon our neighbor Col. Cohurn.

crushing load, but would warn our

ed we thought we had done very well
in giving the amount at thirtv-fve
barrels, leaving every one To make
his own calculation rs tn the num-
Der of lemons and amount of sugar
required; but Schoch gets mad about,
nO doubt because he is behind time
in his account, and says Sirty bar
rels of lemonade, twelve boxes Of.
lemons, and one barrel of sugar."
and wants 1t 10 he remembered that
this was Col. Coburn's treat. What
is wrong with George ? Does he
suppose that the Colonel would pro-
pose such slop for his neighbors-
ly one barrel of sugar in sixty of
water and lemon juice ? Or does he
think the Penns Valley people would
drink such stuff for lemonade? Not
by long shot. They were brought
up better. So Es--ssss .ass sesse.
We suggest that SchOch get all
the facts about the lemonade busi-
ness. and publish another edition,
revised, corrected and improved. /"

A surplus OF money iS sometimes
nearly as great an evil rs an abSO-
lutte want of it. Thus it happens
that public bodies are often not
little pcrplexed about what to do
with cash balances. This seems To
have been the predicament of he
Harvest Home Picnic committee ut
their final meeting lust week TllSy
mtt-they settled-they had q c;lsh
balance of S205, after paving all eX-
penseS. This proved an elephant on
their hands and the Issue was very
doubtful for a time whether the
committee would be able to manage
the monster or whether the monster
would crush the committee. The
plans of attack were various and
! widely divergent. Que proposition
WAS to distribute the fund among
the lcorthy poor in the several town.
l-Ships along the line. but was soon
I-found that that would not do, as it.
would give that deserving but neg
lected claSs-the printers-tCO good
a claim for a slice. The matter was
finally disposed of by voting that
the fund be deposited with ithe
PennS Valley Banking Company, at
six per cent. interest, and shall be APP
Piled to the extension of the rail road
westward from Spring Mills, If the
| company commence such extension
within two years, otherwise the
money to revert and be subject to
the disposal of the committee, after
two years.
1t has not transDired whether the
committee intends to incorporate
itself into n body polite or whether
it is n self perpetuating body, q Ia
the Louisiana Return Board.
AS for the rest, we congratulate
our Centre Hall neighbors on the
prospect of an early completion Of
the rail road to that point.

this country just after Martin Van Blu

itiated the business of disemboweling
the wing party. /.

Everybody is now ashamed of the
Cronin-Oregon business, and nobody
can be found to acknowledge the pa
ternity of it, or any connection with it.
The last say on the subject is from the
New York Herald, which attempts to
disconnect Tilden from all connection
with it. Tilden only laughed at it as
"a good joke" on the Republicans:
sit is a good joke" [the Cronin trickl,
said Mr.. Tilden to me, ''as compelling
the Republicansto abandon their theory
of not going behind the returns, but no
would take his seat as President
Of the United States on such a title as
