citizens, when it was found that box Of
explosives had been placed in the basement
Of building at the east end Of the bridge,

SKETCH OF THE EARLY HISTORY
OF THE SETTLEMENT OF LOST
CREEK VALLEY.

King Solomon said, "By searching ye
shall ind ont thing" Truly, 1 am now
fully satisfied that have found out who
was the first white man that ever settled on
the waters leading and running into the Ju-
niats river, east aud north of said river in
this county, originally Cumberland, now Ju-
niata since 2nd March, 1881, when it was
stricken Off from Mifiiin county. The FIRST
settlers name was David Boge. He located
by spring of beautiful, clear lime stone
water, about one mile west of McAlister-
vile, on the present highway TO Mifilln-
town, where Samuel Meyers resides.
cannot learn how long he dwelt there and
cleared land. / cannot tell when he began,
but only when he sold to Samuel Mitchell.
The article of sale, by Hoge to Mitchell
reads:
"Know all men by these presents, that l.,
David Hoge, OF the county of Cumberland,
. Yeoman, tor and in consideration of the
sum OF foar pounds end ten skii!ings, 10 me
in hand paid by Samuel Mitchell, Of said
county, have granted, bargained, and sold
my improvements or claim and right to
claim 10 a certain improvement and tract of
land, lying on the east branch of Lost
Greek. bounded on the west by land named
to William Armstrong, on the south by
small ridge, the line between 1t and John
Erwin's land, and to the westward, and
northward by barrrns. In witness whereof,
have hereunto Sc; nv hand and seal this
22nd day of July, 1876. ::
Signed, DAVID Hoes.
Witness present:
Jonathan Hoge.
Now, a, to how long Hoge dwelt there, |
have no record, but from another source l
learn some things. think he might have
been there some half dozen yesrs, or more,
perhaps less. | cannot say as to the accu-
racy Of time. After the sale of the Hcge
land the tract became known to the settlers
as the Mitchell farm il was known as the
Mitchell tract for period of 20 years. The
family occupied it till the first decade of
the present century, when they left it on
rent, and moved 20 Ohio. The tract of
| land south of the Hoge-Nitchel trsct, men
toned above as the land of John Erwin,
was bought by Major Hugh McAlister. The
Major Was the second purchaser OF land in
the valley The Erwin tract is still owned
by the descendants of Major Nc Aiister. II
has been once divided into two tracts,
which are owned by q. W. McAlister and
/ General Robert McAlster. The lands mem
toned were The first taken up, settled and
improved by white men in Lost Greek Val
/ lev. / could tell many incidents ot the In
dians IN those early days, which yet recoi'
lcct from the earlier settlers, for they dwelt
in the valley in those days.

After Joseph Musser, of Lewisburg, failed
in business and became poor, his wife put
her wits to work as to ways and means to
make living. She organized an improve
ment party of one, got herself knitting
machine, and vert to work herself at knit
ting. She soon found that she got more
work than one machine could do, and she
bought another, and another, until row she
runs quite a number of machines and has
regular full -fedged knitting factory, and is
doing a profitable business. She did not
frs, hold meetings and adopt constitution
and bylaws, make speeches, ask to be ex-
empted from taxation and talk SO business
and ..enterprise" and damn the town and
every wealthy man in it for not investing
his money in e home enterprise" but she
made up her mind what TO do and then
went to WORK and kept TO work, and the re-
suit has been profitable to herself and graf
living to her friends and neighbors. And
that is the only way business can be done

''Postmasters will not allow non sub

will they hand to them, newspapers

An exchange says: Another new
method of swindiing farmers has
been devised. A speculator in coun-
try produce calls ON a farmer, pur-
chasing so or SIS worth of butter,
eggs or poultry, says he wants re-
ceipt to show the firm he represents
that he paid the money, breaks the
point of his pencil before the sigma
ture is reached. then takes from his
pocket fountain pen. and the farmer
uses it 20 sign his name. The swim
der then goes to town, sells the
produce, erases the body of the re-
ceipt, writes instead a promissory
note for $50 or Si00, and has it dis
counted at the bank.
