The Middleburgh post. [volume] (Middleburgh, Snyder Co., Pa.) 1883-1916, 1886-04-15

Our friend Will. II. Grimm has pur-
chased the Freeburg Bottling Works.
We wish him success.
In about two weeks we will begin
the publication of a series of letters,
by John r. Gift, descriptive Of things
he has seen in the far west and south.
They promise to be very interesting.
Mr.. Gift is n son Of A. X. Gift, Esq,
OF this place.
Subscribers outside Of the county
who will not receive any paper aftor
this issue will find that their subscrip.
tion has expired. Look at the name
tab on your paper and you will find
how far it is paid up. Attend to this
at once and IL you are back send ns
81 so aud you will not miss number.
Through the courtesy Of our friend
Samuel Shiery Of Beaver Springs, we
received copy OF the Champion. City
Times. published at Springfield, Ohio.
The Times is a neat, newsy little pa
per containing all the news of the day,
and will no doubt meet with the sue.
cess it richly merits.
John Il. Stoll, Of Indiana, stands a
very good chance of being appointed
public printer ut Washington when
Mr. Rounds steps out. A good many
years ago Stoll published little Ger
man paper over at Middleburgh. Col.
Keefer, now job foreman Of the DEM
ocrdt, set type for him and boarded at
the Waffle" house. e.-Smb,Ty NeUs,
As soon as the PosT has 1000 bona
lide circulation we will get Power
press and enlarge the paper. 1t is
therefore in the hands OF the people
60 secure n representative paper for
Snyder county. The county is too
sIuall and too many papers in it to
justify any publisher in sending out
n high priced paper, because the cir
culation cannot be secured. But we
promise that il our labors are appre
ciated as they should be, the PosT
will present different appearance
inside OF ninety days, as we have now
very fair prospects to drive the one
thousand stake.
John Sweigert who IL confined in
our county Jail on the charge OF in
sanity, has become quite docile and
wants to go home and work In his
black shop, but lie is yet con
sidered unsafe to be ut large. The
poor fellow presents most pitiabls
appearance, He is a great eater, but
sometimes refuses nearly everything
and divides his victuals into little
piles around him on the floor-one
for each Of his children. Common
decency would suggest the removal
OF the man to the lunatic asylum, Civ
ing the sheriff relief from a terrible
burden and afford the poor fellow a
half chance to recuperate.
LATER.-On Monday n cmmittee
composed of Jacob Gilbert, Esq, II.
II. Grimm, Esq, and DIR. II. b. Bibig-
house examined Sweigert, and pro-
nounced him insane. Perry town.
ship will therefore tako him into Gus
tody. They will leave him In the
JUL n few days yet, and II he contin-
ues improving as he has done for the
last few days they will take him
home, IL not ho will be removed to
the insane asylum.
