The Susquehauna on High.

NANTICOKE. Pa, Dec 1.-THE ice
in the North Branch has broken up and
the river here is now running full of
four-inch ice and rapidly rushing. 1t
is now nearly. feet above low-water
mark. The water has backed up into
the creek here, covering the tracks of
the Pennsylvania Railroad over 2 feet.
All the ice passing down the North
Branch is gorging at Northumberland :,
and at some places it is piled 10 feet
high.
It is in order now for every manufac-
turer to praise and extol the virtues of
his cough medicine. and claim it ever
so much better than any other. On
square business principles the proprie-

the price paid for it, then take the emp
ty bottle back to your dealer and get

More Machinery aud Lsss Hands.

PITTsBURG. December lit is
reported here by late corners from the
Hooking Valley of Ohio that the coal
syndicate will introduce digging and
cutting machines into their mines,
experiments haying proved successful.
The miners now work for so cents a
ton and want go, while the operators
say that to compete with other compan-
les they should get out coal for 40 or As
cents a ton. The machinist will re-
duce the cost OF production at about 81
cents ton, one machine mining fifty
tons a day, or doing the work of six
men.
Justice Field, of the Supreme Court
of the United States, in stating the
policy of the law with regard to the
Sabbath, recently made the following
observations: "Laws setting aside Sun
day as day of rest are upheld, not
from any right OF the Government to
legislate for the promotion Of religious
obseryances, but from it's right to pro-
tect all persons from the physical and
moral debasement which comes from
uninterrupted labor. Such laws have
always been deemed beneficient and
merciful laws, especially to the poor
and dependent, to the laborers in our
factories and workshops, and in the
heated rooms of our cities; and their
validity has been sustained by the
highest court OF the states".

again last Sunday night and will

enough of troops here at FIRST, and
stationed them on the well-known
trails in this vicinity, we would have
great many more horses and cat
tic in Sierra county than we have
got, and more live people. We
have much more confidence in
Capt Chaaeo now than we he'd on
his first visit TO our county. for We
have learned that he as,directing
his command according 10 very
strict orders from Bradley, and the
least deviation from this strict
military discipline, il it had become
known to the commanding general.

WE have another murder 20 re-
cord this week which the Apaches
left IN their trail, This was Frea
Shaw. living at the time Of the
fatal assault, on his ranch on
Trujillo creek above the trail from
Kingston to Lake Valley. This
murder was committed by tine last
squad savages who passed through
here and stole Sam Jackson's hors-
O., but the body Of the dead man
was not discovered until last until
last Friday one week ago. This
was found by Mr.. Nicholson who
lives in Kingston and had went out
on the Trujillo to look for stock,
and riding up TO Mr.. shaw's ranch
cabin found everything upside
down. doors open, house rified Of
everything that an Indian would
like to have, and hungry dog run
ming and whining pitifully about
the yard. Mr.. Nicholson went
back to town and reported the mat
ter and an armed body Of men went
out and soon found the body of
Fred Shaw laying In his potato
patch near the house with a num-
ber Of bullet holes through him.
The body was far advanced m de-
cay, having lain there for at least
six days, and could not be removed,
but was buried about or near
where il was found. Moccassin
tracks and thsir trail Of the Indian
were found, which led in the direc-
ton Of the Black Range. This is
another warning to people not IT,
risk so much when the Indians are
on their periodical raids, but 60 to
town or join a crowd OF men. Mr..
Shaw certainly knew the Indians
were about and to take such chan
COS as he did is not commendable
in no one. Among a number Of
men known to us said they were
not "afraid of indians" and went
out and the bones OF all but one
now lie bleaching on the bills. Mr..
Shaw wasa hard working and in
dustrious citizens and his sad fate

ply has bought and had placed
In here, at his own expense, a large
fire-proof safe in which TO keep
the public documents, books, mon-
ey, &c.
Mr.. Hall and one other are tax
ing the night shift Of standing
guard about the prison. and there
are two mon on day shift. Although
the prisoners are in good cells and
are well shackled, a double vigi.
lance are kept over them and there
is not the shadow of a chance for
them to escape, and this extra pre-
caution is highly commendable in
our officials. One Mexican who is
charged with being accessory to
the recent murder is sick. The
guards have given him the priv
lege of sleeping in the yard during
the day for the benefit of the fresh
air. He has the fever and has fallen
away much in flesh since his arrest
and confinement The ctizens:of
Sierra county can fest assured that
they have the right men in the
right place for the arrest and safe
keeping of criminals, 1t rs a mat
ter that we should all feel proud
OF in the speedy manner that these
men were caught aud lodged behind
the bars. These two officers seem
to have natural gift i'll getting on
the right track and capturing GRIM
inals. So far ar we know or can
ascertain, they have not wanted a
man but what they fetched" him,
and the quarters that they are
placed in is only q secondary

Through the kindness of Deputy
Sheriff Hall we were shown the
county jail and prisoners, Tuesday
svening. At this time there are
eleven inmates confined within the
prison walls, two Americans and
nine Mexicans. -Four Of the latter
are waiting the action of the grand
jury which convenes Nov. 9; one
for the murder committed last
Monday near Lake Valley, and one
--LaFave-for jumping his bail
on a charge of forgery. Ho was
caught in Deming last Monday.
The balance of the prisoners are
held for various crimes. One of
the prisoners who is implicated in
the murder Of H.. l.. White is a
woman, whose husband is supposed
to bethe chief actor in the crime.
She occupys the hallway adjacent
to the cages and near her husband.
There are three cages in the build
ing, all told. la these are slowed
away those supposed TO be tho most.
dangerous and liable to make an at
tempt to regain their liberty. Two
are placed in each of these cells
with hunks or cots placed next to
the wall and. opposite each other
for beds snd'a comfortable place to |
sleep. The old Jail, which Was
made for nothing more than tenn
porary quarters for violators of the |
law, is only used now for those
guilty OF petty crimes, such as get
ting drunk, painting the town red,
etc. There were two Mexicans in
