NORTH EAST.


Special Correspondence of State Journal.
NORTH EAST, July 20. = The delightful
showers of the last few days have relieved
the fears of orr farmers az to the safety of
the corn crop. 1t is now raining steadily,
and has been since early this morning, and
in consequence the ground is becoming
thoroughly soaked. Early potatoes are past
help, but the late ones will be greatly
improved; in fact, the rain has assured a
full crop.
Farmers are busy threshing their wheat,
and all are agrsably disappointed in the
yield, it being much greater than was
expected.
MIR. John Fosters kitchen was entered by Il
burglar or burglars, few nights since, and n
bag of flour taken. These midnight deprcda.
tons arc becoming frequent, but as our citi-
zens are aroused, and on the lookout, there is
a probability of the thieves being caught.
Mr.. Chandler has withdrawn from the firm
of Haddock Il Chandler, liyerymen. Mr..
Haddock will continue the business.
The Democratic primary meetings will be
held on next Saturday. There ID quite an
excitement in this direction owing to the
many aspirants for Congressional honors.
Messrs. Albert Constable, William s. Evans
and Fred Tolbert are the principal onos.
NoRTH EAST, July 24.-This morning two
excursions left this place. both bound for
Colchester The Kimble Band accompanied
one, while Professor Minnick, of Baltimore
had charge Of the music on the other 1t is
unfortunate that both excursions started on
the same day, Us in all probability neither will
pay expenses.
A few days since while the regular sawyer
at Davis Pugh ~ Co.'S mill stepped aside to
attend to some duty, young man employed
in the mill attempted to operate the saw, and
was so unfortunate AZ to run tie saw into an
iron brace, tearing out the teeth at u terrible
rate, and had they been thrown upwards
instead of downwards, his own life, with
others, might have been destroyed.
This firm Davis, Pugh X Co. have secured
the contract to furnihh lumber for the Govern
ment fish Matching establishment soon to be
erected on the Hats a few miles below our
town. Nearly half u million feet of yellow
pine will be required to fill the bill, enough
to keep the mill i'll operation for some weeks.
Good news for the employees who have been
idle for a great portion of the summer.
Rumor says that orders enough have been
received at the iron works to keep them run
ming for three months. Work at this mill is
very uncertain, owing to some unexplained
cause. Iron works at other places, especially
in Western PENNSYLVANIA, are in active opera
ton. The men who went from here there
are making money.

SMYRNA.


Special correspondence of State journal.
SMYRNA, July 23.-W Wednesday was field
day for those evilly disposed and no less than
three unusual and revolving events occurred
Oh that day.
painter, by the name of Wisely, was
arrested for attempting to commit the most
revolving of crimes upon a little lO-year-old
daughter OF J. u. Thompson. The girl is a
little thing, small for one of her age, whilst
the man is married. He was held in default
| of bail for trial.
The other two events we have to
chronicle were the result of liquor. That
article is responsible for just about that pro-
portion of our crime.
r. Il. Carly, after spending the day in ca
rousing and drinking and becoming maddened
with liquor. went to his home and beat his
wife shamefully, her cries collecting u large
crowd in the neighborhood of the house.
| The same evening but n little later another
scene whose handspring was liquor happened
| i'll another portion of the town.
| Mrs. Walker, wife of n shoemaker, took
occasion during the absence of her husband
| to go on a spree, with one of her husbands
| workmen and another man, the men supply
ing the liquor. After getting well soaked some
| remark was made by one Of the men named
| Tucker at which Mrs. Walker took ilmbrage
| whereupon she got hatchet and started on
| the war-path. Before Tucker could get out
of her way she succeeded in cutting his head
and giving him several blows in the back as
was running from her. Yesterday she at
tackled the other man and then started out TO
seek her husband.
| SMYRNA, July 2S.-We barely escaped having
n serious conilagration on Tuesday. The roof
Of the summer kitchen of Mr.. Cosden burst
into flame before it was discovered, but, by
prompt work, the fire was quickly subdued.
! On Friday last a 12-year old son Of L. Il.
Jones was drowned while bathing at place
called Long Bridge, seven miles from here.
The time for the registering of dogs has
expired and frow now hence all CANNES found
without the badge of ownership on them, in
the shape of n metallic stamp will be quietly
put where such badges arc not needed.
Tramps have been here in force during the
past week, but the number of tho fraternity
is somewhat less now owing to the fact Of
many being employed by the farmers AZ
peach piekers and those who will not work
receiving such cold reception they have left

HOW TO
GET Clothing
under Price.

If we could sell a little
more of this and a little less
of that, we could make
things come out even-the
last man that came in would
carry off the last suit; but
we can't. Out of every
stock there are a great many
sizes left when some are
gone. The best we can do
with these incomplete assort-
ments is to mark them low
enough to set a great many
people looking among them
for bargains.
This we do every day at
this time of year; and just
now we have enough of
such to stock a little store.
Besides, odd parts of suits
get left-coats, vests and
trousers. We have a room
in which there is nothing
else. There is in that room
cheaper clothing than you
have any notion of. We call
it the Bargain-Room.
These marked-down suits
and garments are of all
sorts; they may be among
the best in the store.
We force a continual clear
ance of such articles as
would only emb;arrass us +;
and keep our stocks always
fresh and full. $685..

Everything.
Do you know how to get
in the easiest way and to best
advantage what you want for
dress and house-furnishing?
First, how: Write for a
catalogue; see what you can
learn from it about the things
you want. lfsamples can be
useful to you, ask for them
and state your wants SO
plainly that exactly the right
samples can be sent.
Second, where: The place
where goods are kept in the
greatest variety; where they
are sold for what they really
are in respect to quality
where prices are lowest;
where most care is taken
to serve customers accept
ably; and where you have
the right to return whatever
is not satisfactory.
Ihere-no matter where
you are-if you make your
wants known and avail your
self of your privileges, you
will get the best things in
the best way, promptly and
without trouble or risk;
sometimes by mail, some
times by express, almost
always at less cost for car
rage than the money you
save in the price.

''Shoot the numbering ftniaf and like ex-
preesons were frequently heard from the
crowd, and the Indians were pelted with coal
by boys who boarded the coal train on tho
side track The savages were terror stricken
and completely cowed. A move was on foot
In the morning To organize 5000 men and
lynch them, but cooler cOunses prevailed.
and the citizens determined to let the Indians
pass without injury. Had there been any In
judieious action taken by the troops or the
miners. no power could have restrained the
mob from lynching them. Had Douglass or
any of the Indians engaged In the murder OF
Meeher, or In outraging Meeker's family, been
on board the rope would have come into play.
Lieut.. Taylor, In an interview, expressed
himself determined to protect the Indians at
all hazards should the mob attempt to seize
them.
