WThe House Of Representatives has
passed q resolution to adjourn May 81
A good many of the Democrat wish to
do some tariff tinkering before the ad.
iournment, and do not believe there
will be time to do it before that date,
hence they are opposed to the adjourn

passed by that time the country would
gladly dismiss them, with the wish
never to see another such incompetent
body In session again.

plague infested rags Of foreign countries and thus

sustained for all grades Of rags. | am now pay
ing ass per cent higher tor them than at April /.
Bear this in mind and also that every thing that

three this season, and l will guarantee you n pro

Old rubbers are worth twice last years price. and
there is a heavy advance in all kinds ofmetals, AS

A Pennsylvania Town Destroyed by Fire,

MILTON, Penn, May ia fire
broke out here yesterday, just before
noon, aud before 1t could be checked
500 buildings were destroyed and sew
eral lives were lost. The people are
destitute and homeless. Many have
lost their all. The fire started in Muir
ray, DONEGAL Il Co.'s, car-works, and
in q short time tho works were in ruins.
The flames were famed by wind, and
leaped from building to building and
into the very heart OF the place. Help
was telegraphed for to all cities within
reach and several engines responded,
but could do little toward checking the
flames. House after house fell a victim
TO the raging element until between
500 to GOO were a mass Of ruins.
Among tho buildings destroyed were
six churches, the Academy Of Music,
banks, newspaper Offices, railroad depot
and all the hotels. Only three business
places are left. Several bodies have
been recovered, burned beyond rocog-
milton. 250 families are homeless. Pro-
visions and clothes are needed ut once
Tho loss is not yet estimated.
HELP FROM ABROAD.
The firs departments from several
neighboring towns were here. but ow.
ing to high winds they could render
very little service. 1t Is now estimated
that 5000 people arc homeless. The
body of a man burnt to crisp has been
found and two women and several
children are reported missing. Aid for
the destitute has been rendered by the
citizens OF Sunbury, Lcwisburg and
Watsontown. The fields around the
town are filed with goods. One lady
lost $50, 900 in government bonds. The
fire ragged 80 fercely that in the upper
part of the town most people barely es-
capped with their lives.
