"A great deal of interest has been
manifested in the case of Common
wealth VS.. p. r. Cotter, which was
tried at the last term of court. 1t
is happily an infrequent occurrence
for the prosecuting attorney of the
court to be himself arrayed as de-
fendant in a criminal action at the bar
of the court. The history of the case
can be briefly stated. Some weeks ago
the Burgess of Bradford borough
found it necessary to cause the arrest
Of ill-fame in that borough. The par
ties arrested at once applied to Mr..
COtter for assistance, and his enthu-
siasm in behalf of his "fair" and, as
he seemed to consider, prosecuted
clients outran his discretion. He Wis
tied the chief of police and demanded
their release or the surrender of the
keys to the lookup. Failing there, he
visited the officer in whose charge the
prisoners were, and by means of vari-
Gus and divers threats induced that
officer, who confessed to be very much
panic stricken, to surrender the keys.
Having the keys in his possession he
unbarred the prison gates and bid the
''soiled doves" once more to spread
their wings under the free air of
heaven. For this he was arrested and
bound over to court. A true bill was
found by the grand jury. he was tried
and found guilty. o. A. Hotchkiss
was appointed District Attorney pro
tenn. to conduct the case on the part of
the Commonwealth, assisted by j. G.
Sturgeon. The prisoner was ably de-
Tended by his counsel, w. A. Williams,
j. r. Clark, and ex-Judge Williston.
The Court House was well filled dur
ing the trial, as it was one of those
dirty cases that seem so peculiarly at
tractive to the masculine mind. 1t is
unnecessary to state that there were
| no ladies present, with the exception
| of one of Mr.. Cotter's witnesses. The
evidence was very conclusive, and
showed on the part of the prisoner a
degree of recklessness and utter disre-
gard of personal or official dignity and
self-respect that could not but have
| caused his own friends to hang theil
heads in shame. The jury brought in
verdict of guilty without delay anG
on motion of defendants counsel the
sentence was reserved until April term

MIR. James l.. Manson, of Mill
creek township, sends his claim for
hauling the biggest load with one
team, of the season. On February
4th he hauled six hundred feet cf oak
square timber, distance of two miles.
If any body can equal this, now is the
time they can be heard from.
From the JACKsoNIAN.
An inhuman father, of Jefferson
City, this county, while under the in
fluence of liquor, recently attempted
to hang his own daughter, young
girl about sixteen years of age. She
had been sick fer several days, and on
Friday of last week, being sufficiently
recovered as to be around the house,
the drunken father went into the room
where she was sitting in another de-
partment, caught her by the waist,
and placing a rope around her neck,
tried to hang her. The young lady's
screams brought her mother to her
assistance, and the neighbors coming
in she was rescued and her father Sc.
cured.

papers.
Among the number at the Hyde
House we noticed Judge Wetmore,
who was holding an argument Court.
The Judge is popular with the Ridg-
way people-all speaking of him in the
highest of terms as a Judge, and for his
social qualifications; and he certainly
uses his spare time in the discussion of
such subjects as the people are inter-
ested in who come in contact with
him. Being lumberman and far
mer, being practical man, as well as
theoretic, and being a close reader and
good thinker, his conversation par
takes of the useful.
Ridgway, and althoug business is
comparatively dull, all the business
men are considered sound.
There are large number of fine
dwellings there, denoting high order
of culture among the inhabitants.
There are two banking houses
Ridgway Bank and Elk County Bank.
The people are social and orderly,
but few loafers being visible.
In short, Ridgway has nothing to
be ashamed of in the way of enterprise
or intelligence. She compares favora-
bly, with any town in the State in
these respects. Her county officials
are counted the best.
On our way home we saw Gen.
Thos. l.. Kane, of Kane, who claims
to be an invalid; but his keen, pierc-
ing eyes are evidence that he has a
stock of vitality that will carry him
along many years yet. He suffers
from wounds received in battle, and
occasionally concludes they will
shortly terminate his life. However,
the pure air of Kane keeps life's cur
rent moving, as he thinks it would
not in any other locality.

From the Republican.
Mr.. Lewis l.. Mohney, ayoung
man in the employ of Mr.. X. l.. Blood,
while unloading oil in front of Mr..
Blood's building last Friday, met with
quite @ severe and painful accident.
He was in the act of letting barrel
down on the skid, when the team
moved forward, letting the barrel
| down on his foot, almost severing the
great toe, necessitating the services of
surgeon.
The funeral of William Thomp-
son, killed by falling from his engine
at Mix Run, on the eastern end of the
Law Grade road, on Monday of last
week, took place Thursday last, his
remains being buried in the graveyard
| at Jefferson church, near Dowlingville.
| Many of his comrades on the road
were present to pay the last sad rites
to dear and respected friend, large
concourse of people, friends and
neighbors, also following the cortege
to his last resting place.
The dwelling house of Mr.. Rich
ard Bedell, of Warsaw township, was
entirely destroyed by fire on the night
of Wednesday last. He was success
full in rescuing most of his household
effects, excepting that contained in
the kitchen, where the fire originated
and where it had gained such head
way as to preclude all efforts to save
the contents. We have no estimate
of Mr.. Bedell's loss, or knowledge
whether he had any insurance or not.
The other evening two men en-
tered the house of Mr.. Rinard An
thony, of Union township, in his alb
sence. Mrs. A. invited them to be
seated, but, paying no attention to
her, they kicked over a bed that was
in the room, and going to the cradle
one of them lifted the babe up in his
arms. The mother now being greatly
alarmed, ran and took the child from
him, when they commanded her to
"clear out" She ran some distance
to where Mr.. A. was working, and he
hurried back to the house, but found
that the scamps had gone. having in
the meantime broken open a trunk,
and taken therefrom small amount
of silver, and also carried away ham
and some flour. BY this time it was
showing quite fast and was so dark
that Mr.. Anthony found it impossible
to track the thieves, so they escaped
with their spoils. Our farmers ought
to keep rifle, loaded and primed, for
such customers, and in this way adj
minister kind of "speedy justice"
to them.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.-This morn
ing 9th, inst about O'Clock, a gen.
teely dressed young man made his ap.
pearance at the Franklin house in
this borough, and stated that he had
been shot by two men, who after
wards robbed him. He represented
that the crime had been committed
about mile west of town, little be-
fore dark last evening. The one side
of his face was covered with blood and
his general appearance indicated ex-
haustion. He stated that he was shot
in the left ear and in the stomach.
He was taken to a room, and placed
in a bed. Upon examining the
wound in the stomach it was found
that the shirt and undershirt was
burned with powder, and upon being
questioned he admitted that he had
made an attempt to kill himself. He
then gave his name as j. III. Kitchen,
his home is in Columbia county, his
father lives in Columbia county, and
his post office address is Central p.
o. Columbia Co. Pa. His age he
states is 2l. He refused to give any
reason for the rash act, and begged
that no one should write to his father.
Neither of the wounds are considered
fatal. The doctors are attempting to
remove the ball from his head this af-
ternoon. The other ball has not been
found. 1t is believed he will recover.

BLOTCHES, RO UGH SKIN,
PIl[PLE,S.

These and all kindred affections are
caused by impure blood. A few
weeks use of DR.. Fenner's Blood and
Liver Remedy and Nerve Tonic causes
them to disappear, and completely
rids the system of the impurities that
produced them. The complexion un-
der its use acquires clear and mellow
appearance, the head becomes clear
and the nerves strong. One bottle will
sometimes effect cure. Other cases
will require more. In all these cases,
as indeed, in all forms of blood disease,
whether showing itself in eruptions
on the skin, billiousness in the eye
and complexion, or scrofulous ulcers
anywhere, a cure is only question of
time. 1t will result if the remedy is
persisted in. 1t is well to use with it

HOW DAN O'LEARY WON.
HIS SUPERIOR STYLE AND TRAINING OVER
COME HIS EVIDENT LEG-wEARINEss.

London, March 26.-The great six days
race-for race 1t was, as competitors were
allowed to go as they pleased-ended on
Saturday evening, ss the cable will already
have informed you, with O'Leary in front
aud the best of the English pedestrians,
Vaughan, second. None of the runners,
save "Blower" Brown, did anything note
worthy; he came in a good third, and it is
sarcastically observed by one paper that
the course was not long enough for him.
Hazael, famous rnnner, was absolutely
last, nor did w. Smith, of Paisley, or
McLeavy, also champion pedestrians, do
much better. Vaughan, at the finish, took
to running q good deal, and went with
amazing stoutness, but the inferiority of
this method of progression was clearly
shown by the fact that leg-weary as
O'Leary was he rather increased his advan-
tage at the finish. Smythe, "the American
post man, ;" who had been walking 30 much
at Dublin proved unfit for the company he
had to travel in.
While O'Lea1y has had fair play, there
ia still some grumbllng in the papers. The
Times says that his having track to him
self was of incalculable advantage as to the
end it was in capital condition, while
after the second day the English path was
badly cut up-not to mention the fact that
| the competitors on the latter were con-
stautly passing and repassing each other, q
harassing thing IN race, apart from the
fact that it involves a loss of ground. The
Times also says, rather queruiously, That
he had much the more commodious and com
Portable tent, and is generally. of opinion
that if ever Vaughan and OLeary come
together again the latter will be defeated.
Other papers show some soreness, if not 30
much, and the Neacs probably hits upon
the truth when it says that O'Leary had
the advantage in his experience in previous
| contests, and the superior intelligence of
his trainers. "The fact is," Gays the Rews,
"that the generality of so-called English
trainers are not sufficiently educated men
| to undertake the management of a man in
so long walk as ak days. Vaughan really
lost the match in allowing O'Leary to gesf ff
| teen miles ahead the very first day. There
was no doubt at starting about O'Leary g
staying powers. That had been proved over
and over and over again. Vaughan should
have tried to keep level, and to have
trusted to his better speed to win at the
fnish." This is the opinion of all the pa
pers and cognoscenti, and it may not be so
far wrong, for Vaughan has tremendous
turn of speed. The following table shows
that O'Leary took the lead at the first and
| how relentlessly he kept it:
