junlata County We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week.
On Monday night the music and
jewelry store of William H. Rollman,
on Main street, was entered by thieves.
The entrance was made by placing a
ladder against the east of the building,
close by window, upon the shutters of
which the thieves proceeded to operate.
A hole was bored through the shutters,
through which the fastenings of the
shutters were unloosed. The sash was
forced open, and held up by an army
gun screw driver and wrench. A large
file or rasp, and a brace and bit, which
Jacob Slautterback identified as his
property, and which thieves must have
taken out of his blacksmith shop, was
left on the floor of the burglarized place.
AS far as known, nothing of great val
lie was taken, and it is conjectured that
the thieves became alarmed and fled be-
fore their designs had been carried out

Marriage Made Easy.

Thibet is the old bachelors para disc, for it is there that he can f1irt with a hundred girls simultaneously, and get married without knowing il. TT. T. Cooper, an agent in the English civil service-he Was recently murder ed at BhamO, although that is neither here nor there - resolved to travel through China by a route comparative ty unknown and full of dangers. Start ing from Hrdow, he went along the Yang-tse-K -KIsng 10 eastern Thibet. One day he found himself in a grove, sur rounded by a group of young glris, and according to him, the whole scene was so Arcadian, and the roman tic effect so irresistible, that though struck by the remarkable absence ot the male sex, he gave hlmsclf up to the influence of the situation, and waited with languid curiosity for the denOuement of this pleasant little ad- venture" He smoked with the girls and shared their meals, and aiterward they dragged in young girl of six teen, attired in silk dress, seated her by his side, and then began to dance round the par. He could not make 1t out until his servant explained that, according to one of the customs of Thibet, he had, without knowing, Il allowed himself to be married. He al first wished to resist, pleading English customs, but the tribe among whom he was would accept no explanation, and he was compelled to take the girl with him.

The Woman's Hotel.

The Stewart Hotel for women has proved & failue SO far as it's original purpose is concerned, and will be re- modelled somewhat and be used as a regular frst-class hotel. Judge Hil- ton in discussing the pros and cons of the matter attributes the failure to the following cause in the following words:
 But says Judge Hilton, it is a failure. I'll tell you why It is very simple and very natural. I believe that you cannot get women to accept any help based on the condition of separation from the other sex. am sure thac they cannot be tempted by any comforts and luxuries to stay or live away from the other sex. You can run a hotel for men exclusively, but for women, you can't; l believe that the majority of women not over fifty years of age entertain some hopes of union, and a great many over that age do; and you cannot do anything for them if you make the condition impair their chances in the least. The failure of the Woman's hotel will be world wide example for philanthro- pists. T. is terrible disappointment 10 all interested 1 am not greatly surprised at the failure But I have done my duty in the face of a conviction of inevitable failure. The scheme has been misunderstood Some have thought the hotel was to be a working girls home. It was for the very class we tried to get and which wouldn't come. MT. Stewart expressly provided the place should be for ladies who earned their own living What other class would have appreciated such place, with porcelain from Pilivuyt, glass ware from Bacarat, plate glass from St. GObain, and Prof. Edward Schelscher for cook! But the ladies couldn't be coaxed to the hotel sim ply because they wOuld't sacrifice male company. They would rather stay at the boarding houses, and put up with hall bed rooms, poor fare and skimp furniture, and have ther gentle men than take the luxuries of Stewart without them. IL is natural, and you can't blame them"
 IL Is said that Mrs. Stewart exceed ingly regrets it's failure, because she expected great things from the enter prise. She had hopad to spend the remainder of her days among those whom her husbands benefcence in- tended to benefit.

The Last Ocean Horror.

The Goose Bay, Oregon, News of the 1Tth h4, the following repor- from the Captain of the schooner Parallel, which arrived ai that port July 15, from San Francisco: The schooner Parallel, on the 7th instant, in latitude 39 deg. 42 min, at a. m., sighted a junk, or Japanese vessel, adrift. A boat was lqwered and the strange yes sel boarded, and a terrible sight met the boarders. Not living soul was aboard, but a number of corpses of Orientals who had probably been dead at least a month. There was no food aboard, and some of the bodies had been shackied together, doubtless hav- ing been craZed for want of food or water and fastened by their comrades
 Finally, doubtless, all died of starva- tion Some of the bodies were well dressed, and lot of fine silk ladies wearing apparel was brought off the wreck by the sailors, all made up in Oriental style. The stench of decay ing bodies was such as to prevent a thorough inspection of the vessel; but lot of Japanese writing is in the pos session of Captain Nelson, which may throw some light on the subject.

Pathetic Incident of Alexander
 Hamilton.

John c. Hamilton, a son of Alexan. der Hamilton, gives to a correspondent of the Philadelphia Times this pathetic incident of his father: My fathers resi- dence was in the country, toward the north of New York islan1 His law office in the city was rather shabby affair. The day before the duel 1 was sitting in a room, when, at slight noise, I turned round and saw my father in the doorway, standing silent ly there and looking at me with a most sweet and beautiful expression of countenance. It was full of tenderness, and without any of the business pre- occupation he sometimes had. John" he said, when I had discovered him, wont you come and sleep with me to- night?" His voice was frank, as if he had been my brother instead of my father That night 1 went to his bed, and in the morning very early he awakened me, and taking my hands in his palms, a,l foGr hands extended, he said, and told me to repeat, the Lords Prayer Seventy-five years have since passed over my head, and have for gotten many things, but not that tender expression when he stood looking al me in the door, nor the prayer we made together the morning before the duel.

To a Child.

Thou hast the colors of the Spring, The gold of kingcups triumphing,
 The blue Of wood-bells wild; But winter thoughts thy spirit fill, And thou art wandering from us still
 Too young to be our child. Yet have thy fleeing smiles confessed Though dear and much desired guest
 That home is near at last; Long lost in high mysterious lands, Close by our door thy spirit stands,
 Its journey well nigh passed. Oh, sweet, bewildered soul, I watch The fountains Of thine eyes, to catch
 New fancies bubbling there, To feel our common light, and lose The flush Of strange ethereal hues
 Too dim for us to share Fade, cold immortal lights, and make This creature human for my sake,
 Sinre am nGught but clay; An angel is too fine a thing To sit beside my chair and sing,
 And cheer my passing day. smile, who could not smile unless The air of rapt uneonsciousness
 Passed with the fading hours; joy in every childish sign That proves the stranger less divine
 And much more meekly OUTS. I smile, as one by night who sees Through mist Of newly-budded trees
 The clear Orion set, And knows that soon the dawn will fly In fire across the riven sky,
 And gild the woodlands wet.

A Lawyers Peculiarly.

The following story is told of Speak CT Randall's grandfather, a leading lawyer in Philadelphia. He was clear headed if he had fee beforehand. A stranger came to consult him about a will and forgot the usual fee. The case involved a great deal of property. The client began: My father died and made will" He then stated the case, consuming an hour in doing so.
 'Do you understand the matter, MT. Randall?" "No, I do not" The client left in disgust. He told his trouble 10 a friend, who advised him to secure MT. Randall. Stupid old dolt," said the man, "he don't know anything" What retainer did you give him?" "Oh, forgot that" "Go back and give the old man hundred dollar bill andSsee what will come of it." NIT. Randall received him as though he had never seen him before, pocketed his fee, and said; Now state your case" My father died and made will" Stop sir" sad the lawyer, "that is very queer; how could he make will after he was dead? Don't you mean that he made a will and died 2" Why, squire, how did you find that out? that's what mean. The case was won.

Lieut. FremOnt's Mary Anderson
 not the Actress.

The Washington Post settles the rumor concerning the clandestine mar riage of Ensign Fremont and Miss Anderson, the actress. According to it's statement, young Fremont is mar ried, but the actress is not. It was an- other Miss Anderson who seized upon and carried of the handsome young naval officers heart. The story goes that Ensign Fremont was stationed on the Powhatan, a coast vessel, and was able to be great deal in Washington. Last October, in the latter part of the month, Miss s'Sallie Anderson, in com pany with her aunt, Mrs. Magruder, went to New York city for short visit. By a mysterious dispersion of the Navy Department the Powhatan was ordered to the navy yard at Brook lyn. Ensign Fremont went over to New York, called on Miss Anderson, went out for walk, and came back married. No one was informed. The Ensign went back to his ship and Miss Anderson returned to Washing ton. During the past winter they both went out in society a great deal Ensign Fremont endeavored to make himself agreeable to the young ladies, and succeeded, as a young and hand some officer can. During all this time he kept up his visits to the Anderson family, and was then regarded as Q very agreeable young man, and con- venient escort. His attentions to Miss Sallie did not attract any notice either in the family or among the friends. How long this state of affairs would have continued it is impossible to say but in May last MT. Anderson sent for his family to join him in the West. The crisis in the affairs of the young people was reached The whole story came out. Miss Sallie Anderson did not go West, but she again went to New York, and this time with her acknowledged husband, Ensign Ere mont Miss Mary Anderson has had no part in the drama, nor has she cast for one. The Baltimore Sun adds the statement that young Fremont at last accounts was in Paris with his bride, while Miss Anderson, the actress, is sojournIng in London.

MaEruder's Account of the Death
 of MaxImIIfan.

Placing himself at the head of his small army and leaving Marquez to defend the city, he marches straight for the enemy. At Queretaro they met Fighting against hope Maximilian performed progidies of valOr, and at length fell victim to the treachery of one of his Mexican officers, whose for tune he had made. In the dead of night, after a hard days fight, while he was seeking a short repOse from the cares that oppressed him, the gates were opened by this Arnold of the Elm pire; the enemy was placed in posses sion of all the strongh0lds, and Maxi milan awoke to find himself pris- ouer, without a chance for resistance or hope of escape. After the mock cry of trial he was led to execution, supported by his faithful General, the calm old military chieftain and sacer- dotal Casique of the Indians, Mejia, and the young, handsome and heroic Miramon.
 After having distributed gold (in token of forgiveness) among the sol diers who were to be his executiOners, he resumed his place with the calm dignity which remained with him to the last, placed his hand upon his heart and gave the word" Fire" He fell pierced with many bullets. His death was not instantaneous; he fell, in reclining posture, upon the cross which some pious priests had put near him, and with his cheek upon this sa- cred emblem-a fitting resting place for one who had not only been soldier of honor but faithful soldier of the Cross-this wise prince, this good and gentle man, received a shot through :he heart from one of his executioners and breathed his last.
 Thus ended the most brilliant drama of modern times; a disgrace to the Mexican nation and to the civilization of the age in which we live.

Mast.

This accomplished artist, who is also of for Europe, is one of the most striking features even of this age of progress. He combines a variety of gifts such as cannot but command the worlds admiration. As a caricaturist his perceptions of the ludricrous are inimitable, but to this is added litera- " taste, and especially an acquaintance with Shakespeare, such as no other artist has ever attained. His adaptation of Shakspearian utterances to the events of the day, as illustrated by his crayon, is certainly wonderful. Add to his a versatility which seems proof against exhaustion. Mast is 35, and is a native of Bavaria. He is of short stature and heavy build, with broad German face, which he occasionally presents in caricature, thus showing that he is ready to make himself " the subject of humor equally with others. He has been earning 5000 month for the last ten years, having better pay than any other artist of the same age. It is very natural, therefore, that he should take trip to his native land, where be will be received with marked attention. The people of the old world will probably soon find, as Burn says, that there's chiel amang ye taken notes," and if Mast does not give them some hard hits it will sur. prise the New Yorkers.-N. Y.

A Chicago husband came home the other evening, dancing with glee. He kissed his wife, he kissed his children, and looked the picture of happiness as he sat down to the supper-table and ioyously remarked 10 his better half:
 Fl cleared $50 on a trade today"
 But the very next night that hus- band and father came into the house like a bear. He growled a. his wife, he growled at his children, and 1t was only with the greatest difficulty that his worthy spouse got from him the gloomy explanation:
 II only made $50 today"
 It is such ups and downs ln life as this that drive our citizens into un- timely graves.
