years.

Many welcome friends dropped in on us
this week, if coming in at the front door can
be called dropping, prominent among whom
were j. ID. Hicks, District Attorney of Blair
county. Tom. l.. Mcnamara, of Curwens-
vile, Frank W. Hay and Col. G. T. Frazer,
of JOhnstown, r. Fl. Brown, of Pueblo, Col

Mr.. william Cole. Of Carroll township

ufacturing spirituOus liquors without having
given bond, as required by law and also

The Altoona Tribune Jumps at conclu-
siGns with unanimity we have seldom seen
excelled. The woman who entered a drink
ing saloon in this place one day last week
with an empty bottle and came out with il
filled, as we stated incur last issue, is not a
resident of Ebensburg, and we didn't say
she was. Nor is there, so far as we are
aware, any evidence-to prove, what .he Tri-
btt1e further asserts, that later in the evening
the woman was full and the bottle empty
again. II looks to us as if an apology was
due either to the woman OF to the bottle and
so far as we ire concerned the Tribune is at
liberty to take its choice.
"A story put in circulation q few DAYS
ago in regard to the contemplated discharge
of nearly e-third Of the working force on
the p. r. r. is denied by the Altoona Tribune
which says that trainmen are making as
many hours day trying TO do the immense
work of the company as nature can stand /,
and, instead of diminishing, all classes of
freight and passenger traffic is increasing
In order to do this work the company has
found it necessary to work its shops TO their
fullest capacity, furnishing engines and cars
and keeping up necessary repairs, aud con-
sequentlv instead of suspendng they are
constantly hiring mechanics and laboFers.
With regard to the decision of our Court
this week, in the case of John j. Beckel VS..
the Cambria County Mutual Protection Fire
Insurance Company. referred to elsewhere,
there seems to exist some misapprehension.
The Court did not decide that any Incum-
brance against property insured invaliGates
the policy, but, that. where there was encum-
brance at the time the application was made
and the applicant answered there was none,
that then the policy was rendered null and
void on the ground of such Misrepresentation.
This statement is put through the columns
of the FREEMAN by T. W. Dick, Esq agent
for the Company, to correct wrong idea
which seems to exist in the minds Of many
personf interested.
