The Perry county Freeman of last
week published the following: Last
Wednesday morning Edward Amber
residing at Juniata Bridge, Perry
county, went into the store of Jefier-
son l.. Clugston, at Benvenue, Dun
cans Island, Dauphin county, in an
intoxicated condition, and becoming
offensive, was ordered to leave the
premises. He did so, but returned
at s o'clock in the evening, and
again, using offensive and abusive
language, was forcibly elected. Dur
ing the scuffie, Clugston struck Am
ber heavy blow on the head right
above the left ear with a wooden stick
three feet long and an inch and a
half square, used as n door bar. He
was stricken to the ground but re-

Geronimo.

The appearance of Geronimo has
laid at rest many fctions as to his
appearance and condition. Our cor
respondent, who had frequent op-
portunities of seeing him face to face
says he is young brave, under 80,
of handsome figure and fine bearing.
He has never been wounded, and ap-
parently his band would have been
good for many more months of fguer-
rilla warfare had not their supply OF
ammunition given out This account
of Geronimo agrees with the sketch
given by Captain John G. Bourke in
his IAN Apache Campaign" In
that work Captain Bourke describes
Geronimo, whom he calls Hieronymo
as one of the youngest and handsom-
est of the Chiricahua Apache chiefs,
but one who, in spite of his youth,
exercised great influence over his
companions.

The Coalport Standard of September 3,
reports the following. On Friday afternoon
of last week q shooting ARRAY occurred at
Janesville, which may yet result in the
death of James Davis. The particulars are
az follows A gang Of men were working
on the township road that runs by the resi-
dence OF Squire McKerin, and had made q
ditch past the lstter's barn. which was OBJ
iected to. Amer finishing the ditch the
men moved on down the road and conttnu-
cd their days labor. Returning in the
evening they found the aforesaid ditch had
been filed up, and the supervisor ordered
his men TO remove the dirt that had been
thrown into 1t. In compliance With his
orders they set to work, bat had not pro-
ceeded far until son OF McKernin appear
ed upon the scene carrying shot gun IN
his hand. Taking deliberate aim At Davis
he fired. The gun was loosely loaded with
bird shot, which scattered TO great extent
and Is the only reason that can be given
why Davis wasn't instantly killed. One shot
struck him above the temple and passed
around the forehead beneath the skin, aud
came out on the other side. Another
struck him alongside of the eye and lodg-
I'd Just behind 1t. Other portions Of his
body were riddled with shot, bu t all failed
to strike any vital part, he was arrested aud
placed under $500 bail for his appearance
at court.
From the Bloomfield Times of last week;
The Saville twp, School Board offers a re-
ward of s75 for the arrest and conviction
of the party who set fire TO Jackson school
house in Saville twp On Sunday
afternoon a week, some parties were attract
ed by the large number of birds that bower
ed over spot on Wright's Mountain, a
short distance from Milerstown dam. On
searching for the cause they discovered
the body of man so badly decomposed
that the head had fallen away from the
rest ofthe body, which was in a sitting pos
ton Notice was given to Coroner Shrom
who empaneled jury, who found that the
body was the remains of Jacob Bretz, and
that his death was by the visitation of God.
Mr.. Bretz, as our readers will remember
mysterlously disappeared on the afternoon
OF July 29th, and at that time was in bad
health. 1t is supposed that Mr.. Bretz had
sat down to rest, and, was too sick to get
away. His friends hunted for him for
some days Immediately after his disappear
snce, but without any success. The deed
was about go years of age and was a man
generally respected by all who knew him.

THE ALTOONA Tribune remarks !;
The suddenly developed love of the
democratic party for the workingman
will deceive nobody who doesn' t
want to be deceived The sum
mary throttling of Mr.. David r.
Donnellys legislative aspirations be-
cause he had once trained with the
Greenbackers, and the nomination OF
man who wouldn't know how to
be anything but democrat was a
pretty fsir indication of the senti-
ment of the men who controlled the
recent democratic county convention
Their candidates must be men who
have never finched in their support
of tine doctrines and the candidate;
of the Bourbon democratic party
Still they want republicans to sup
port these candidates. What kind o
republican is the man who would
consent to do so7 A kind of whicl
this county contains but few as th,
record will show on the 2nd day o
November.

will locate its offices and machine

other roads we are not certain. If
these do and pay out as much money

The remains of old keys found at
Herculaneum abundantly proved
that kind of warded lock must
have been IN use among the ancient
Romans, and further proof on this
point is yielded by the ancient keys,
now and then dug up in parts of
England and belonging to the per
iod of Roman occupation. While the
Romans made the KEYS of bronze,
the locks were formed of iron which
accounts for the decay of the latter
and for the fact that our ideas of the
locks are derived from the keys,
some of which were not only finely
formed, but fitted for ornaments.
The Roman key has generally han
die in the form of ring, occasional
ly of loop, and its general construc-
ton is remarkable for its neatness
and strength. In many specimens
the stem was so short and entwined
in such a way that the ring could be
worn on the finger.
Sir Walter Raleigh's gallantry in
impulsively casting his rich and

that Queen Elizabeth might by step

spent the summer at White Sulphur

being a young and presumably i'm

its height and the rosy hue of count

filed it to overhowing with the flow

then extended it to the hero of the
affair, who with a smile and bow,
drained the new vessel of Bacchus
amid themos ardent applaus. Twas
said of Raleigh that his act was
meant to raise his hopes of prefer

Communication.

Men who are accustomed too travel m uch
abroad arc exposed to various dangers that
make the future for longer life uncertain.
For this reason many men that have wives
and children to earn living for have their
lives insured, so that If they should die
that their family should not be LETT in
Stationed circumstances but would obtain
insurance money. Ii may be good TO in
sure ones lie or it may not be any good.
If man insures his life believing he will
die soon it is no; right and especially II no
is deceptive in stIting his health. Bat
why will some persons insure their lives
wisely in some instances and neglect it,
suring the Soul, since life in Heaven or
Hades is longer than on earth, in the for
mer place life has more perfection and 10Y
and no doubt greater activity. Many men
and some of their relatives and friends. ani
perhaps people that are unirIendly accord
ing 10 the nature of people die with both
the present life and the soul uninsured and
the result is because of the want of soul in
surance through Jesus Christ "The Lamb
of God who taketh away the sins OF the
world" the result is because OF this neglect
and because of other reason caused

agents of companies to insure life there is
one Agent or rather ''but one Mediator be-
tween God and man, namely Jesus Christ
who will insure the soul of the penitent
seeker and help the blind sinner to see the
way (Christ) to Heaven by opening the
eyes OF the blind one by Gods Holy Spirit
for it points to Christ and the better life.
