O'Clock, and after that every other

1t appears that the Lutheran Sum
day school will spare neither cost nor
labor to make their entertainment on
Christmas eve most delightful af-
fair for young and old and to celebrate
the anniversary of our Saviour's birth
In q becoming manner. The call for
funds to defray expenses was literally
responded to last Sunday forenoon and
the interest manifested was very en-
couraging.
Its we'll enough to talk and brag
about intended enterprises and build
Ing which will be undertaken by you or

ture already erected Is what talks.
And In this connection we must not
neglect to mection S. ID. Musser's open

"PEACE ON EARTH AND GOODWILL
TOWARDS MEN. For nearly nineteen
centuries these gracious words have
touched the hearts of humanity with
the warmth of Divine love. It is "a
pleasing thought that every year the
Christmas time widens the circle Of its
forgivilg and benefcient influence.
Parents repeat the story OF the lowly
Christ. child in the manger-G0d's
great gift to the people tokens of love
and esteem pass from hand to hand,
estranged friends forget their differ
ences, heart-aches are cured and
troubles are smoothed over. Let us all
then join In the sane spirit on the
Christmas day of SS5 and endeavor to
make the day memorable 10 the little
ones, to friends, Id parents, and last
but not least to the poor. Christmas
should be the most joyons of holidays
and two weeks hence We should all be

Las: Thursday the great trial of
John IT. Cox, the murderer OF Milo
Jump, at Northumberland. June 25th,
1885, commenced at Sunbury. Over
three hundred witnesses are to be ex-
amined and the probabilities are that
the case will take up week. Hon. A.
FL. Dill, of I,ewisburg, Hon. Chas. Fl.
Wolfe, of the same place, Hon. S. 2.
Wolverton, of Northumberland Co.,
and Geo. Hill and son, also residents OF
the county, are the counsel of defend
ant. The other attorney from Lewis
burg IS Daniel Cox,a brother of the de.
fendant. He does not take an active
part in the trial except to counsel with
his brother attorneys. The attorneys
fol the Commonwealth are District
Attorney Mshan, Ex District Attorney
Lewis Dewart, Geo. w. Zeigler, Esq,
from Sunbury, and Cornelins Smith,
Esq, from Scranton. It will be seen
that the best talent is represented on
either side, and that it will be drawn
battle. The trial creates Intense ex-
element throughout Northumberland
and also neighboring counties.
Prof. Barret of st. Lawrence coun-
ty, N. Y, speaking of pulmonary dis
eases, says: Not one death occurs now
where twenty died before Downs Elk
ir was known, Over fifty years of con-
stant success places Downs Elixir at
the head of the long list Of cough rem
edps.
