The Indiana Times of recent
date says: The Walter Main Circus
troupe gave two performances here
yesterday, which were largely attend
ed. 1t is one of the old fashioned
"road shows" and gives more gen.
uine amusement for 25 cents, than any
railroad show that has visited US.
The D'Alma family is whole show
itself, while the general acrobatic and
other performances were unsurpassed.
The wonderfully trained dogs of Prof.
May are alone worth the price of ad'
mission.
The painters are about finishing j.
w. Stover's store on Main street and
it will be one of the neatest and most
pleasant business places in town. The
front panel work is painted jet black,
relieved by gold. and looks very at
tractive. The two show windows are
encased by heavy french plate glass
and everything about the interior of
the place is in conformity with it's ex-
ternal appearance. When ready for
business, which will be in short time,
Mr.. Slower will make an announcement
of it through the JOURNAL.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT. - Last
Wednesday morning, Mrs Jacob Breon.
residing on one of Jonathan Harter's
farms III Penn township, was at Elias
Smiths, about mile east Of Penn
Hall, to pick sour cherries. She had
climed on one of the trees, and being a
lusty woman, her weight proved too
much for the limb she stood on. 1t
broke and she fell heavily to the ground
sustaining a severe fracture of the left
arm near the wrist. She also received
some bruises about her body and could
not be removed to her home until the
next day. Medical assistance was at
once procured and the lady is doing as
well as can be expected.
-Chas. Guinness Co., from New
York, who played Peck's Bad Boy and
That Awful Girl in the town ball oi
this place last Monday evening, gave
better entertainment than we had here
for many years. 1t is most humor'
Gus play and the actors performed their
rolls to such perfection that the au-
dience was kept III an uproarious mer-
riment during the whole evening. AS
part of the proceeds were to 60 to the
band. the boys gave the town and sur
rounding country good canvass be-

house. The street parade in the even

donkey and the ''royal bumper" fol-
lowing the band wagon. If ever the
the troupe returns to this town, we
think they will draw larger crowd.
GoRED TO DEATH. On Saturday
afternoon, July 3rd. Mrs. Samuel Wal

some cattle to the field, was attacked

while and finally left her to her fate
with three broken ribs and other ser
ious internal injuries. Her little girl
who witnessed part of the accident but
could be of no assistance, gave the a.
larm by ringing the farm bell, which
brought the men, who were at work or
the fields, and who carried the wounded
lady to the house. She laid there
in great pain until Sunday when she
became unconscious and remained &C
