Jimtown had spell last Thurs
day evening but failed to have mu-
sic. We advise Ed. to engage mu.
sic a day or two ahead, as good mu-
sicians are not to be picked up at
] 5 minutes notice.
The thermometer went down to II
below zero here, during the cold
snap. What was the lowest in Nor
gantownf
You ask: How shall we celebrate
the finishing of the railroad to Nor
gantown? Why, celebrate it as they
do everywhere else, by firing cannons
during the day and having grand
ball at night, Some old fogies about
town would object to this, but old
fogyism and railroads are incompati-
BILE, and if you want railroad you
must root out old fogies.
Sam Lining had two calves to
freeze to death during the cold
spell.
Joe Wharton is getting a lath
saw attached to his saw mill.

The joint committee of the socie-
ties is trying to get set of rules
and regulations framed for the gov
eminent of that body in its delibera-
tions. Heretofore confusion and al
most anarchy have attended numer-
Gus attempts to deliberate on mat
tiers relating to the proposed contest,
because there is not much unity of
opinion as to the force of the old set
of rules formerly observed by the
societies about such matters. As
the President of the University is
the arbiter in all such matters, we
feel sure that the thing will be set
tied amicably. Contest temperature
is hardly normal

,JoLLIFF SENTENCED.-Jam Jol-
lift, formerly Of this county, and
whose trial was noticed in our last
issue, was sentenced at Waynesburg
by Judge Inghram last week. The
Greene county Democrat SAYS:
After the speeches of the counsel,
Judge Inghram consulted with his
associates, and then requesting Mr..
.Jollitf to stand, in clear, distinct
voice proceeded to pronounce the
sentence. His Honor dwelt to some
length upon what had been said by
cousel in behalf of the prisoner, but
thought after weighing everything
advanced in eXtenuation of the guilt
of the prisoner, justice would be
best subserved by imposing the fol
lowing sentence: THAT you, James
Jolliff, be sentenced to pay the costs
of prosecution and fine of six cents
to the Commonwealth, and undergo
an Imprisonment of one year and six
months in the Allegheny Woikhouse,
and stand committed until sentence
is complied with"
Mr.. Jolliff is fiftysiX years of age,
and has a wife and two children.
Prior to this shooting ARRAY he had
never been under arrest for any
offense, and had been a most exem-
plary citizen all his life. We under
stand that an effort will be made to
have the Judges change the impris-
ment from the Workhouse to the
County Jail, on failure of which
Governor Patterson will be pctitioned
for a pardon.
