hour on Sunday morning last and despoiled
OF lot OF hosiery, hats, etc. The money

Milton Gunder, young bricklayer at the

John Ray, aged 13 years, of Greensburg,
I shot himself in the abdomen the other day
I while attempting to load a pistol, and was
found soon after in precarioUs condition.
What makes this case the more notable is
that an older brother of young Ray was shot
when about the same age as the latter, and
/ only recovered after a long and threatening
. illness, while still another and only brother
of these two was run over by train Of cars
which he was attempting to board when
about 13 years old. \ series of singular Coz
incidences to say the least, which no Ray of
light can eucdate.
-Twenty-eight head of fine sheep owned
. by Mr.. Joseph GUtwald, butcher, OF this
Z place, were mercileSSly slaughtered by dogs
on his farm in Cambria township, which is
without a resident tenant, on Wednesday of
{ last week There were three death-dcServ-
. ing CANNES engaged in the bloody work, two
of which Mr.. Gutwald succeeded in tracing
to their respective owners, but as he seems
to accept his loss, and he says he would not
have taken 800 for the sheep, with the phil
osophy of an anchOrite it does not look as if
the dogs were to be killed or their owners
made to pay the damages.
During a heavy thunder storm which
. prevailed in and about Altoona on Monday
last five children who had been playing in
the Catholic picnic grounds at the west end
Of the city took refuge in small wooden
shanty, from which, however, four OF them
were soon after frightened by the high wind.
Z The fifth one, small glTi, remained IN the
building, and soon after a large tree was
blown down, and striking the shanty demol-
ished it, but strange to say the little one, who
was crouched in a corner and trembling with
fear escaped without even scratch. 1t
was nevertheless fearful and an exciting
/ experience for one young.
The Altoona Tribune says that in that
city, "like everywhere else, the Republican
soldiers stand firmly by General Garfield" 3"
How much truth there is in that kind Of
bumcombe may be inferred from the fact,
and it is fact, that there is at least one p.
r II. shop in Altoona where no less than
four Republican soldiers, employed on night
turn, who have with 'wcnty-thrcc other me
chanics and labOrers avOwed their intention
to vote for Hancock and English. Not much
OF the "stand by Garfield in that kind of
political straw. is there, Mr.. IrtbtHeT And
vet there is no reason to doubt that Republi-
can soldiers all over the country do their
standing" in about the same proportion.
Henry Yingling, aged about As years,
was prOStrated by heart disease while cross
ing the Twelfth street HILL in the vicinity OF
St Johns (Catholc) cemetery, Altoona, on
Tuesday morning last, and died in about an
hour and half after being attacked by the
fatal malady. The deceased is said to have
been addicted to the use of StlmulantS, ana
was also in the habit of using ether and 9th
{ er aneStheticS to relieve him from the effects
of his frequent potatOns. \ paper contain
. ing a white powder was found beside him
when picked mp and this fact led to the sup
position that he might have poisoned himself
DR. Christy however, gave 1t as his opinion
that either heart disease or an overdose OF
ether had caused his death.
The CarrOltown NelCS says that Clamoht,
the partner of the missing pedlar, Louis
Marks, was i'm that place week before last,
and while there stated that information mas

is i'm Iowa, they having recently received
LETTER from him: ClamOnt also states that
