EPOCH.

The transition from long lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the individ-
ual. Such a remarkable event is treas
ured in memory and the agency whereby
the good health has been attained is
gratefully blessed. Hence it is that so
much is heard in praise OF Electric Bit
ters. So many feel they owe their res-
toration to health, to the use of the great
Alternative and tonic. If you are troubled
with any disease of kidneys, liver or
stomach. of long or short standing you
will surely find relief by use of Electric
Bitters. Sold at SOC and 81 per bottle

THE STREETER CASE.

8. NJ. Streeter has been convicted in
Elko of incest and sent to prison for a
term OF years. From what can be
learned of the evidence in the papers of
that county, we do not believe Streeter
committed the crime. His daughter
was of an age that she could have pro.
tected herself and from the evidence
docs not seem to be girl who would
be easily intimidated by any threats.
Strester is said to be weaIthyS he Inns
another daughter who is married, and
there is possibility that number of
relatives have put upa job OH the old
man to get him out of the way and &c
cure his property.-[Lyon County
Times.
At the trial OF the above case the pub
lie was excluded on account of the ma
thre Of the evidence which was ELECTED
on the trial. Through the courtesy of
the Court this scribe was permitted to be
present for the purpose of noting such
items as wore fit for publication, and
we must say TINT the facts brought to
light were such as to convince even the
most skeptical of the guilt of the de-
PENDANT.
The Times says: "His daughter was
of an age that she could have protected
herself. and from the evidence does rot
seem to BIZ II girl who would be easily
inundated by threads" The evidence
to that effect was gwen by the defend
and and his wife who, as the residents
of Lamoille know, testified to that
which is directly contrary to the facts.
1t is IL we'll established fact that the
girl was treated with great harshness fy
her father aud stepmolher. and that she
was al much under control az the south
ern slave of few years aeo. What
chance would child thirteen years old
have against the commands Of her mas.
ter2 1t is useless to discuss tn mat
tor further. AZ the statement of the
Times that "there is possibility that
number of relatives have put up a job
on the old mau to secure mis- property
ispure nonsense. There were no relative
engaged in the prosecution except Maud
Hnd her married sister, who, by their
action in bringing their criminal father
to Justice. have barred themselves from
MI expectation of securing IN interest
in the old mans property, He has al
ready disposed of his property, cutting
out the girls entirely.

There is an unprecedented demand for
laborers in this city at present. Day after

for men; not % or 80 as usual, but 100, 200
or 300. All applicants are accepted regard
less of their nationality or color. Railroad,
bridge and steel work is being pushed in all
directions, and the contractors are reaping a
golden harvest.
Messrs. Jolly & Wenieburg have several
large contracts on hand, which will afford
work to considerable number of workmen
until far into the winter. Among the more
important is the new Pittsburg incline from
Bradford street, Southside, to Allentown.
This will be, when finished, the longest in

the hill over 5000 feet. 1t is expected that
il will be completed by December /. Two
hundred men are at work.
The Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railroad Is

after the holidays. A new pipe line for
Oliver Brothers, of the Monongahela
Natural Gas Company, is being laid from
Cocheran's wells to Pfttsburg, and will not
be completed until January, requiring the
services OF 600 laborers.
Messrs. jolly & Weineburg will also
send $50 men to the new Government lock
in the Muskingum river, nine miles below
GAINESVILLE. Contracts were signed to-day

and five pieces. One hundred and fifty
men will be employed on this work.
