that Madame Cuthbert, so we'll known
among Us as a superior teacher of
vocal and instrumental music, as we'll
as Of modern languages, has associat-
ed herself with one of the first Ladies
Seminaries of Harrisburg. Miss
Woodward, Principal, has for more
than twelve years enjoyed the best
patronage Of the most respectable
citizens of that. city and is highly
recommended. Madame Cuthbert is
more favorably known as the princi-
pal of the Musical Institute which
she established for years in Cumber-
land. She has been here spending
part of her vacation and is anxious to
induce some of her old pupils to ac-
company her to her new home, and
those who have had the benefit of her
tuition could not do better than take
the opportunity of continuing their
studies under her instructions. Pa
rents who have known Madame Cuth-
bert for 80 long both socially and
professionally need have no hesitanoy
in conhding their children 10 her care.

Republican Mass Meeting,

On last Thursday evening the quiet
inhabitants of Richfeld were aroused
by the arrival OF the Freeburg Cor.
net Band, which discoursed a mum.
Der of pieces of entertaining music,
after which Republican meeting was
organized
Thomas Shellenberger was chosen
President, and A. G. Shellenberger.
George G. Zimmerman, 7. c. Derr,
George S Metterling and c. S. Shell
ienberger, Vice Presidents. John III.
Willis and c. S. Dunn were chosen
Secretaries.
The President stated the object of
the meeting. after which John W.
Bear, of Observation-Disclosures known
as the Buckeye Blacksmith address
ed the meeting.
In his preliminary remarks he stat
ed that he has been ON the stump for
tifty years. He pronounced the
Greenback party a delusion and a
snare. Gold and silver must ever re-
main the basis of exchange among
civilized people. The hard times that
the Democrats and reformers talked
about were not caused by the Ma
tonal government, but they were
by the extravagances of the
people. We are all guilty of too ex-
living; the poor are trying.
to live up to the rich. The man with
one hundred dollars is trying to live
up to the one that is worth five hun
ired dollars, and SO on up from one
step to another. Another reason is
that more is produced than can be
consumed; another great reason of
hard times is found in the fact that
foreigners are coming to do our work:
they overrun all the places where
work is needed, and thus over-pro-
iuction of labor cheapens it, The
bad classes of Europe, and the Chi
nese, who can live on frogs and lizards,
lre so numerous In the centers of
trade that our own people have to
stand back, and that is why wages
are go low. The foreigners glut the
abor market The best friend that
abor has ever had is the Republican
party. 1t should not be stricken
lown in the house of its friends.
There was no spread-eagle oratory
lbout the speech; it was a plain
statement OF the situation, and our
people were pleased with it.

Last Friday William Kenawell, a citizen
of Fayette township, son of John KenaweIl,
went to Shade mountain on a cunning ex-
pedition. Failing to return on that day,
and on Saturday, his friends became alarmed !,
and on Sunday morning stated their feel
iDgs of uneasiness for his welfare to neigh
bors. One man told another of the mys-
terious absence of a neighbor until the
whole neighborbood was aroused to search
the woods and mountain. About sundown
on Sabbath evening some of the party in
search of the missing man, heard the bark
of little dog away up on the mountain
side, north OF John Houghawoat's home,
and having heard that Kenawell had taken
a little dog with him to the woods, conclu-
dud to look up the dog that was then bark
ing. They did SO. Before they had quite
reached the place where lie barked from, he
came to them, and then ran back. They
followed. He led them to his master, who
was lying Oh the ground, dead, with gun
shot wound through his head, through the
temples. His gun, empty, with the ham
mer broken, lay on the ground, about u
feet distant. All the game that was with
him was one squirrel, which was in basket,
with a bottle of honey, which he had been
using to bait bees. The basket hung on his
left arm, which, with basket and contents,
lay undes him. He lay on his face, and,
from what people say who were on the ground
when he was found, he must have DROPPED
forward when he was shot, off rock or
boulder that was some two feet higher than
the surrounding objects. His right arm was
swung around across his back His gun
was smoo;h-bore rifle. A load of shot
entered his left and passed out Of his right
temple, loosenIng in its passage the bones
of the forehead, and making such openings
in the skull tha: his brains oozed out on his
hat, which was crushed up under his face.
The verdict of the inquest has not yet been
fled.

Editor Sentinel and Republican Dear Sir,
have been creditably informed that re-
port is being circulated throughout the
country, that am Greenbacker, and that
1 am advocating the cause and principles of
the Greenback party. 1 denounce the re-
port as being an infamous falsehood, circu-
lated for the sole purpose of ipjuring my
standing in the Republican party and Of
creating disturbance in the ranks OF the
Republican party. Allow me to say to my
Republican friends that am at present as
zealously adhered and as trul. devoted to
the principles of the Republican party as l
have been in days gone by, and that shall
do all in my power to bring out full vote
in Monroe, the banner township of Juniata
county.
