Newport Ledger: For several
weeks past couple of very large
fish have been seen in the Juniata,
one Of which is believed to be some
six feet in length and the other
somewhat smaller. These monsters
are believed to be sturgeon that
have come up with the flood. So far
they ssve elpded all efforts to cap
sure them.
Week k-before-last we made men
tion of George Layton killing large
black snake on Shade mountain. He
noticed an unnatural enlargement
in one part of the reptile but did
not take the pains to investigate.
A few days after Jacob Shamoray's
children while out in the woods
came upon the snake and by the
side of it lay china nest-egg. 1t is
supposed the reptile had swallowed
it and in its death throcs disgorged
it.

The confederate, as if renewing an

talking about is this What is the

MIR. 5. Weis is papering the prop
erty he recently purchased of Col.
Simpson, preparatory to moving in
to it. Mr.. Weis in the seventeen
years he has resided in this place
has given a practical example of
what honest dealing and strict at
tention to business can accomplish.
When he first came here he opened
a little Notion AMI Fancy goods
store in the room now occupied by
the post-office, he moved into larger
rooms from time to time as his bus
mess grew, until in 1883 he purchas-
ed the old Schnure K Davis corner
and erected a large and commod-
ious brick building, since then used
as store, in addition to this he
erected II pleasant brick house on
south market street, which he has
occupied as Il residence, and now
has become the owner of the Simp-
son corner, which is unquestionably
one of the finest residences in our
town. Mr. Weis has well merited
his success in business. 1t would
be good thing for our town if we
had more such men.-ISelinsgrOye

1t can be laid down rs the COM
mon law of the land that non-pay-
ing subscriber to newspaper be-
longs to the scabby, NANCY part of
the flock of humanity. He is the
mildewed ear in the crop of man
hood. He is morally u blotch on
his generation. The Lord has
stamped him below par base metal /;
his manhood is counterfeit. He is
guilty of the pettiest, meanest form
OF robbery. He robs his faithful
servant of hard earned wage. He
robs, like a coward, the man who is
afar off. He is mean in little things
that kind of meaness that shrinks
and shivels up the soul till it is
small, light and altogether con
temptible. OF this man it is said /:
"Thou art weighed in the balance
and found wanting Thou art
the small potato in the bin of soci-
ety. If the soul of such a man
should transmigrate and enter into
a pig, the pig would stink away in
shame, feeling that he eranked among
swine as several points below the
average level of swinish respecta-
bility. Unhonored of men, unloved
OF angels, despised by the printer,
is the man who deadbeats on the
publisher of the newspaper. There
is great waste of salvation in de-
vising a scheme for the saving of
such souls.

Bull Dog vs.. Badger.

The alley way back of Red Wards
saloon was the scene Of great excite
ment Sunday afternoon, as a fight be-
tween Reds bull dog and Johnny
CosgriT's badger was to come off at
4:30. At the TIM named both dog
and badger were on hand, as well as a
large crowd of spectators who came to
see the bout. As Dol as the dog was
turned loose 1t was apparent that the
badger could not win the fight and
that IL was only n question Of how
long II would take for the dog to kill
him. After an hours fighting the
dog had sufficiently licked the badger
to satisfy jenny and he concluded to
call the fight, and he %thereupon with
drew his badger, which died before he
had travelled a block with il. The
dog came out Of the fight with only a
few scratches but pumping hard for
wind.

There being an impression prevalent
among some that there can be no such

under the Australian law, at The re-
quest Of Mr.. Silverman we take this
opportunity of correcting this misap.

that all candidates who desire to have
their names on the ticket must be GER

site number Of citizens. 1t still per.

BY writing the name ia the blank
space left upder each Office 10 be filled.
Theexsct words of the law,
referring TO this question, are In Sec
ton Is, of the Australian act, and are
as follows: "Nothing In this act on
tanned shall prevent any voter from
writing or FASTING on his ballot the
name of any person he desires TO vote
for any office. and such vote snail be
counted the same a. If printed upon
the ballot and marked by the voter"
Mr.. Silverman is the only lndepen-
dent candidate before the people in
this election. He is a candidate for
the office Of justice of the peace In
Miles City township and can bs voted
for at Miles City, Hotchkiss, Dixon,

shooting the 6vs-year old son of farmer
Walter Berj amIn, near Fender, Nebraska,

lynched by the excited people while on the
way to jail yesterday. The town has been
in state of great excitement ever since,
and extra precautions have been taken to
prevent the lyncbing. Henry NJ Rice, 8

have done the shooting, but he refuses to
talk.
