Discharged

Thirty-seven men and six teams were dis charged from the employ of the Board of Public Works yesterday because the Common Council did not make or allow the Board to make transfer of funds from one branch to another. Instead of doing so the Council referred the matter to the Committee on Ap- propriations, which will necessarily cause delay. The Board asked for $3O, 900 for work on streets this year, which was cut down by the Board of Finance to $2O, 900, being 5000 less than the appropriation for 1880. Owing to the last severe winter it cost $S, 800 to clean the streets of snow and ice, and now, the second week in August, the ap- propriation is substantially expended, the money being used for general repairs, ordi- nary expenses and turnpiking streets. On the first of August there were about $1, 100 remaining to the credit of this account and yesterday there were only about $500 left As the matter now stands there can be no work in cleaning or repairing streets until the next regular meeting of the Council, un- less the Mayor should see fit to call special meeting.

MISS MOLLIE BROWN, THE
PRIDE OF AMERICA.
$4,000 to Produce Her Equal" "

100000 to Produce Her Equal
The Grand Circus Royal English MenAgeriO,
&c., will pitch its acres Of tents at Clearheld on
Friday, April 29th. Ono Of the chief attractions
in riding in the Grand Circus Royal, &c., Is the
extraordinary performances Of Miss Mollie Brown.
This lady differs, In her general display Of horse
manship, from all others who have preceded her
in the American arena. She owes her unpre-
eedented success mostly to the balance and mus
eular power she possesses, which enables her to
assume almost impossible attitudes and changes
Of position, upon her naked horse, during her
lightning like Aight around the arena. All her
movements are mArvols Of grace and dex,erity,
animated pictures Of elegant intropidity, thrill
ing dashss Of super eminent art, self.control and
indomitabe nerve, such as no other equestrian
either male or female ever accomplished before
her. Her specially wonderful achievement Of
throwing somersaults from the back Of her naked
horse, while in full motion, together with her
rapid and reckless style Of backward riding, In
all the principle cities Of the new and old worlds
have caused Presidents, Senators and the public
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, to mingle their
shouts Of applause and wild huElaS Of delighted
approval. Whatever claims others OF the pro.
fessiOn may make concerning their skin in bare
back equitatonism, certain 1t Is that no lady has
ever accomplished the feats, or equaled the dar
ing of this -"Amsrica's own peerless representa-
tive"-Nlss Mollie Brown.

RAILROAD WRECK. About o'clock
last Saturday afternoon seven loaded cars broke
loose from the train standing on the siding at the
summit station on the 7. A c. Railroad jumped
the switch and started down the road toward,
Tyrone. No brakeman being on, thOy could not
be stopped. An engine was Immediately sent
aflor them. The cars jumped the track at the
north end Of the curve, striking the water plug
newly built, tearing it entirely down, and also
destroying forty OF sly feet Of track. No person
was hurt The men working at the "Big fill'
were terribly frightened when they saw 1t coming
and heard the terrible crash. Train No. 80,
which was about passing Vail, was held there
until the engine that was sent after them return
ed to the summit The Mail train going south
was detained at The "Big Fin" about one hour.
The loss Of the water tank will amount to a
couple Of thousand dollars. The seven cars were
loaded with about $4,000 pounds Of coal each
The cars we're badly mashed up going over The

HOR RIBLE


The following We clip from the Brookvillc
Democrat of April 2oth awe have heard the
particulars Of sad and horrible accident which
occurred in the edge Of Armstrong county, near
the Jefferson county line, on Monday Of last week.
William Neal, an old man, aged perhaps eighty
years, lived with his daughter and three or four
little grand children, near the little village Of
Eldyyille The old man had become so dscrcpit
be could only get about with great difficulty, and
his condition was such that Il he should fall
down he could not rise without assistance. On
the evening Of the day mentioned his daughter
started across the fields to a neighbor's house to
get some milk, leaving her father aud her three
or four little children at the house. Soon after
her departure one Of the little girls came into the
house and told her grandfather the roof Of the
house was on FIRE. lie told the little girl to 90 al
once for ber mother. lie made his way by some
means to the garrett, and was followed by another
Of the little girls with bucket Of water. While
u the garrst ho fell down and was utterly
unable to rise. lie told his grand daughter to
70 down and take all the children out Of the
house, but he would have to burn up as he could
not get out Of the gArrct. This little girl then
left him, and with the other children went to tho
barn, leaving the babe few months old, in th,
cradle in the house. Tho girl sent for the mother
missed her in some wsy, but the mother soon re-
turned, having discovered the FIRE on her way,
Az soon as she entered the house her FIRST thought
was for her father, knowing bis helpless condition
She sought him in every room in the building,
and then went to the garrot, the door Of which
was closed, and resisted all effort to open It. She
knew not at the time that the old man was there.
II is thought that In his struggle to get out he
had rolled against the door aud held It fast.
She then removed her babe, and the neighbor'
began to gather in, when the children told where
their grandfather was. BY this time there was no
possibility Of rcscuing him, and his body was
no, recovered until largely destroyed. When
the body was recovered 1t was more than hall
burned up. The greater portion Of the contents
Of the building we're burned with it, The desk
In which Mr. Neal kept his money and pApor'
were saved"
