John w. Castle, Williamsport's ex-
pert fisherman caught on Monday
last, a bass weighing eight pounds and
one ounce.
Capt. Buchanan of the steam boat
Lizzie May, lowed the canal boat "On
loaded with one hundred tons of coal
up the river from two Locks to Fall
ing Waters, w. Va. This is the first
full boat load of coal ever delivered
to that point by way of the Potomac.
1t is consigned to Bender Brothers,
Martinsburg, w. Va.
Mr.. Marquis Donnelly a former
resident of this place, but for the last
few years resident of Martinsburg,
w. Va, made us pleasant call ON
Monday last. He informs us that he
has purchased a farm near Charlotte,
North Carolina, where'he will remove
with his family early in August. His
description of that country is certainly
very fiattering, and the people honor
able, warm hearted and hospitable.
Dick Garrish, a youth of seven sum-
mers jumped into the canal on Sunday
afternoon and saved large dog be-
longing to Mrs. Bush from drowning.
The dog was noticed struggling in the
water and would have certainly drown
ed but for this little hero. We have
often heard of dogs saving boys from
drowning that could not swim. but
this is the first case ON record where
the boy saved the life of dog that
could mot swim.- WilliamspoT Leader.

The following has been handed
me as matter of interesting
Renaissance to the admirers of the
late lamented "Boss.n When John
Kelly began the practice of law, he
rented a room that had been hat
store, and as the customers for hats
were more numerous than the callers
for law, he became considerably irri-
tated. One day an Irishman put his
head in the door and inquired in this
wise, What have yez got to sell
here, anyhow ?" "Blockheads," was
the surly reply. +" Aye?" retorted
the son of Erin, /" An it's a thriving
business yees must be doing for l see
there is only wan iv thin left" Years
after, Kelly would relate this story
with keen relish of the witty retort.

men, even loss of time where piece
work is the rule.
Gentlemen OF the commercial and
professional classes, who have not
looked into the workings of trades
unions and the case of the arti-
san and mechanic, should study
these matters by observation before
they write down the trades unions
as essentially evil.
Generally speaking these unions
correspond closely to the conditions
which employers combinations and
competition have forced upon work
ingmen, and they are susceptible un-
der proper management of good uses.
At all events their right to exist is
quite unquestionable, and it is quixo-

into relinquishing them, and very I'm

ABUsINEss PROPOSITION.

The efforts that are made from time
to time to give our readers new at
fractions cost money and we look to
them for the "wherewithaP to defray
these extra expenses. Notwithstand-
ing this has been a very dull year,
THE SENTINEL is to be congratulate
upon the promptness with which its
patrons have come forward and paid
their subscriptions. There are still
few who have neglected this impor-
tant duty either from force of circum-
stances in some cases, and others from
force of habit. These readers are
just as warm friends Of The SENTI-
MEL as the more systematic ones, and
can at almost any time cancel their
arrears. 1t is our desire that all our
subscribers stand on the same footing,
and to bring ABOUT this result, we
make the following offer: '- IS
We will peesent one of our hand
some Autograph crayons of Governor
SCALES to every subscriber who be-
tween now and the 1st of July pays
up to january LIST, 1887. We want
to begin the new year Of 1887 with
clean books and we make this early
start to do it. After each account is
settled up to January LIST, it will be
no difficult matter for all of our sub
scribers to make their annual payment
henceforward as they become due. By
this adherance to business method, we
will be relieved of the unpleasant task
of reminding our readers of their an
rears, and it will allow us to expend
more time and money and energy in
improving The SENTINEL, and max
ing it even more popular newspaper
than its present increase in circulation
! would Justify us in believing it to be.

In dye-pots dipp'd from melted rainbows

With rich sublimeto, its turents gid.
Two worlds-the emerald and the azure blush
Sweet Luna, from her silver palace, treads
The rosied gardens of her jeweled home
And with her feet upon the stars, the dome
OF Nights blue temple, she ascends, and sheds
The yellow tears OF weeping ecstasy.
The poet dreams. and, from his world ;l4ar
He sips the love-dews OF the melting skies
The gate of vision Morpheus swings ajar
His eye she touches, and, sea
