The Peckbam Iron Comnany has opened a
new mine near the Tom Suck mountain. and
is now shipping ore to the works at kimms-
wick. By permission of the railroad company.
platforms to receive tine ore have been erected
just north of the Ironton depot, and teams are
daily hauling it from the mines. It's claimed
the ore is OF excellent quality, and since the
Peckham Company has secured long lease of
the TERRITORY, we have no doubt it will add
considerably to the boom now blessing this
section of the country.

The entertainment under the auspices OF the
Red-Ribbon Club last Friday evening was a
success in every way. The concert was good,
the tableau1 very fine, the general character
Of the entertainment above the average, and
last but not least the audience large and ap-
preciative. All concerned In the affair are en-
titled to credit for the excellent rendering of
their several parts. while Mr.. Wiesner who
happily conducted it to a successful conclu-
sion, under, at times, most discouraging cir
cumstances, deserves the Observation-Disclosures
Of those in whose interest he labored.
"Good Night, Geptle-folks." is the title OF a
new auartette, by Will L. Thompson, author
of the famous quartette ''Come Where the
Lilies Bloom'' Concert and Minstrel troupes
pronounce It the most beautiful piece OF
music ever put on their programmes. 1t
never fails to receive a hearty encore. The
demand is such that it is scarcely possible to
keep 1t in print. Music dealers write that
they never knew quartette to sell as fast.
We advise lovers of music to send the price,
80 cents, to the publishers, and receive copy
by return mail. Published by W. L. THoMp-
SON & Co., East Liverpool, Ohio.

How = PARTY GoT FREE DHISKs-Judge
Gfldersleeve in the course of recent lecture
told a story to illustrate how quick men ar
rested FOR felOnious assaults put ia a plea of
self-defence. 4 party of jewellers were at a
wake one night and their whisky running
shoIt, they concluded TO play trick on the
keeper Of a saloon near by to get whisky, as
they had no money. They took the corpse
and put its clothes on and walked it along in
the crowd to the saloon i'm question. and all
took seats around a table. They sat the
corpse with its head leaning ON its hands,
and hat over .he eyes. They drank several
times around when one by one they left the
saloon, the corpse remaining at the table.
The landlord began to get uneasy about his
pay for the drinks, when he approached the
silent man at the table and demanded his
money. OF course there was no answer.
Again and again he made the demand, and
finally, getting angry, stepped behind the
bar, and seized q cudgel dealt the corpse a
terrific blow and knocked it OF the stool onto
the floor. The jewellers, who were watching
outside, rushed in and charged the landlord
with numbering their friend He held his
hands up in holy horror and exclaimed /:
Before God I would not have hit him with
the club if he had not struck at me with
knife"

Select Council, and although Governor Geary
had majority Of upward Of 400, he was re-
turned defeeted by but thirty-twO votes. In
this canvass he was supported by many Of
the most prominent property owners Of the
ward who were not members Of his own pO-
iitical party. In 1S6S, on the election Of
Hon. Furman Sheppard to the Office of Dis
trict Attorney Of the County Of Philadelphia
Colonel Dechert was appointed Assistant
District Attorney for three years, and was
again appointed by the same official for the
same term on his reelection in 1874
When Mr.. Hagert was elected to the same
Office in 1877, Colonel Dechert declined a re-
appointment, preferring to resume the gen
eral practice of his profession, 20 which he has
devoted his attention until called, without
his own solicitation, 10 accept the nomination
for Or-General. During this service as
a prosecuting officer, he was independent
and fearless, and conducted many important
trials i'm which he displayed abilities that
showed his eminent fitness for the require
ments of the post.
/ While Colonel Dechert held the position of
Assistant District Attorney, a vacancy oc-
cdrred in the First Senatorial District. to
which he had previously removed, by which.
/ cally tie. Both parties looked about them
/ for their strongest candidates, and Colonel
Dechert was, without any solicitation on his
/ part, unanimously made the candidate of his
/ party, ana after an active campaign, at a
/ special election, on December %, 1870, he WAS
elected Senator by a majority Of upward OF
/ 1900, although the Republican candidate for
/ Sheriff at the election in October preceding
I had, in the same district, received a majority
/ of upward OF 1000. Colonel Dechert's re
cord during the two years in the Senate was
cTeditable and unimpeached.
/ He was the author Of several important
measures, Of which the Criminal Evidence
/ law is one, by which persons charged with
certain minor criminal offences are permitted.
! to testify on their own behalf
! Colonel Dechert is an active member of a
number of societies. among which are the
Military order of the Loyal Legion, the Men
nerchor Society, the Penn Club, the Histori-
cal Society Of Pennsylvania, Hamilton odge,
. No. pa, \. Y. NJ, OF West Philadelphia and
I Post No. . Grand Army Of the Republic
In 1873, Colonel Dechert accepted the COM
mand of the old Veteran Second Regiment
better known to our readers rs the Nation
al Guards, formerly commanded by General
Peter LYLE. This regiment has been brought
under his efficient management to q high
state of discipline, and in the recent encamp-
ment at FairmOunt Park it'received the high
est encomiums from soldiers and citizens.
The office for which he is a candidate Is a
most responsible one, and he will. no doubt,
receive large independent vote by reason
of his high character, and because it IS often
ina ha of
monwealth can best perform his duties when
he differs i'm politics from thoss whose ac-
counts are to be audited

Whether the following which we take from
an exchange, will apply to this particular To-
cality we leave for the public and aspirauts
for official honor TO determine
''The appearance in any Of the principal
saloons of a candidate for a county Office Is
any time in the evening, the signal for gen

may peep in at the door and see only one
man present besides the barzeeper- lie goes
in 10 treat the man, when, loi the saloon in
stantly becomes fuli Of men. They drop in
n the front door, they enter from the side
they come forward from the rear, up out of
the cellar and swarm down the stairs. They
all slap the candidate on the back I'm turn
and inquire how he's doing. Then the shout
goes up, Who's a treatin' % A desperate
smile nits over the candidates face-like a
