JoHNsTowN, June 30.-The weather to-
day was in strong contrast with the wet and
foggy days of last week. A number of Wis
itors struck the town, but the majority took
advantage of the sunshine and went to the
reservoir. The fakirs were doing an excel
lent business, which seemed strange to
every Pittsburger accustomed to the strict
enforcement of the blue laws. 1 managed
to secure glass of soda in Cambria City,
the first for many day. General Hastings
had invited a number of guests to spend
Sunday with him. In the party were State
Senator Goblin, General Lowden Snowden,
Adjutant General Axline, of Ohio. and
William Finn. Captain Jones remained
over and gave dinner.
IN HONOR OF THE VISITORS.
Governor Foraker was expected to be
present, but he sent his regrets. Appro-
PIRATE speeches were made by General Snow
den, Senator Goblin, General Wiley, Gen
eral Hastings, William Finn and Colonel
Cosgrove, of Braddock. All the gentlemen
agreed that some great work had been done
in Johnstown. During the morning they
rode over the devastated territory with Gen
eral Hastings. Those who had not seen the
awful wreck before, were astonlshed that

General Axline. of Ohio, who arrived in
Johnstown on the Sunday morning after the
flood, and Colonel Spangler, related some
of the things they saw to group of listen

HARDwoRKING OFFICERS.
People may say what they please, but
Governor Beaver has a hardworking set of
staff officers. Every man at the head of a
department is trying to beat the other in
conducting his business properly. Accounts
are kept of the most trifing details with the
same exactness as if they involved millions.
The most rigid honesty i, practiced, but
for fear some cranky legislator may question
the books two years hence, the officers are
taking the greatest pains in the prepara-
tions of their reports and the filing of papers
In the accounting department. No money

Of late years farmers have been unable to raise turkeys as in former times, and consequently that noble bird did not adorn the Thanksgiving supper table, nevertheless the good mothers, ,wives and daughters had their tables we'll loaded with choice viands that would tempt the most delicate appetite. The poor, we trust, were not forgotten, and enjoyed good supper as we'll as the more wealthy.

spectators. A large number of witnesses gave testimony on each side, much of which was irrevelent and full of profanity. This was the judges maiden case, and his rulings in matters of dispute between the lawyers relative to admission of testimony were fair A common sense view was talk en of the law, and the way witness should be allowed to tell what he knew about the matter in his own way. The defendant in Wheeler of Willimantic, and probably is his temper slop over-to his disadvantage. The law very justly protects land owners against lawless hunters, and they ought to know better than to roam over fields not their own to fish or hunt without permis- sion. A land owner has g right to hunt and fish on his own land at any and all times of the year, the fish and wild game being as much his property as the grass that grows on his fields, but if he starts rabbit on his own land and the rabbit TUT through the fence on to his neighbours premises he would have no right to kill it, however near the line it might be. A man would have no right to stand on his own land and hook fish from Q brook that coursed through his neighbours land, the fish and game being his only while on his own premises, and must be captured there to te legally his. The sooner hunters learn 10 obey the law and respect others rights the better it will be for them. In the case just tried the judge found the peace broken and imposed fine of $1 and costs, and for trespass in hunting $7 and costs, amounting in all to about $50. Ap- pealed.
 Prosecuting Agent Eaton from Stafford, in company with Deputy Sheriff Levalley, visited the premises of John Donovan, alias Jocco, last Friday, their business be- lg to search for contraband liquors, which it was reported Jocco kept for sale. MT. Eaton, who was not altogether stranger to the place, proceeded to search Jocco's house, while LevaIley being better ac- quainted with Jocco's ways, took stroll ing look over adjoining fields. He discov- cred well trodden path that led to a swamp, through which flowed small bab- bling brook, and behind rock found large jug of liquor. Further search re- suited in the discovery of several bottles of the tanglefoot animal, all of which was gathered up, to the disadvantage of Jocco. Jocco was arrested and tried before Juatice K1ngsbury at Eagleville and asked for an adjournment, which was granted till Dec. 2d, at 10 o'clock a. m. Donovan has been so many times in the meshes of the law for similar offences that it may not go as we'll with him this time.

of sin. Things thus covered are
cured without scar; but once pub

A CURIOUS cause of death was

A CURIOUS cause of death was
recently recorded in india. A ma
tive who was fishing in a stream
caught a flat, eel-looking fish, about
fifteen or sixteen inches in length.
Being DESTROYS of killing it, he put
1t into his mouth III order to bite its
head. The fish, however, scarcely
approaching this somewhat clumsy
attempt at decapitation. vigorously
eSsayed to make other arrangements,
IN which it was partially successful.
Gifted with a slimness which made
IT very difficult to hold, it slipped
through the mans fingers into his
mouth and conveyed itself partly
down his gullet. The situation
now was bad for the fish, but still
worse for the man, for, owing to the
sharp fins on the back of the fish, il
was not possible to withdraw it. The
man died in great agony within an
hour.
