NEWSY NOTES.
Warren, Pl

Mrs. Chas. F. Reed, daughter of the
famous Dan. Rice, died recently while on
a journey in Prussia. She was born in
Girard, Erie county, was trained for circus
riding by Col. Rice, and married Mr..
Reed, the leading bareback rider of Rice's
show. They have been in Europe the past
twenty years, and, with their children,
ranked among the best riders of the
world.
No woman could fail to be interested in
such magazine as The Ladies' Home
journal has made of its May number. 1t
covers, in a fresh and practical manner,
every conceivable part of woman's life,
and tells her precisely what she wants to
know. Surely, magazine which gives
twelve such numbers as this is cheap to
any woman for One Dollar a year. The
Journal is published at 4S3-4S5 Arch street,
Philadelphia, Pa.
Here is an innocent diversion that may
afford considerable amusement and at the
| same time is good test of ones memory I;
On table are placed forty different arti-
cles and the guests are only permitted to
see them during walk twice around the
table, then they must go into another
room and write down the names of all ar
ticles they can remember. At one recent
ly held one lady remembered thirty-one
of the articles, and another could remem-
ber only eight. 1t is a healthful mental
exercise to practice at social gathering.
An unknown contemporary remarks:
This is a topsy-turvy world. No man
seems to be satisfied. One man is strug-
| Cling TO get justice, another is flying from
it. One man is saving up 10 build house
and another Is trying to sell his dwelling
for less than it cost. One man is spending
all the money he can make in taking a
girl to balls, and sending her flowers, in
! hope eventually to make her his wife,
while his neighbor is spending all the
| gold he has TO get a divorce. One man
escapes all the diseases that man is heir to
and gets killed on the railroad; another
goes through half-a-dozen wars without a
scratch and dies of the whooping cough.
The demand of working men for an
s-hour day, with lO-hour pay, is TO be en-
phasized on Thursday next, May l, by a
far-extended demonstration. Fully l00,-
600 carpenters in this country lead of in
the movement, and the other trades are
expected to be drawn by sympathy into
support of the movement. All Europe is
astir on the same question, and there are
fears there of collisions and trouble. The
strike promises to be general and world,
wide. The situation looks like a disinte-

National Committee Meeting.

When il leaked out that Chairman
Quay intended calling a meeting Of
the Republican National Executive
Committee, to be held May Z, his per-
sOnal traducers and political enemies
at once jumped to the conclusion that
he had been forced to resign-that the
attacks made upon him we're so dam.
aging that the President, Secretary
Blaine and other members Of the Ad.
ministration insisted on his prompt
retirement, and that the meeting was
called that he might hand in his resig
nation. The wish unquestionably in.
spired this conclusion. 1t is just what
they have been laboring to accomplish.
There is gang of political despera.
does in New York who have had a
wholesome dread of Chairman Quay
ever since he foiled their villainous
schemes for carrying that State for
Cleveland through false registration
and repeating in New York city and
Brooklyn. That is the secret Of their
onslaught upon him. They do not
want him at the head Of the National
Committee when Cleveland makes
another dash for the Presidency.
The accounts from Washington tell
a very different story as respects the
calling together of the National Ex'
ecutive Committee. 1t is not going Ia
meet to shove Chairman Quay over
board. There are other matters tc
claim its attention, and those who i'm
ogine that the clear.eyed and steady
handed pilot who steered the good
Republican ship through the turbulent
waters of the last National csmpaigr
is going to be cast adrift will be mos
egregiously disappointed. Pittsburgh

A Pleasant Occasion.

The celebration Of the SEVENTEEN
birthday of Mrs. William Huddleson
was an occasion long to be remembered
by those who assembled at her home
in Hickory twp, on April IA, 1890.
About forty persons, among whom
we're friends and relatives from quite
a distance, partook of the pleasant
hospitality of this highly respected
lady, and made her the recipient Of
handsome and valuable presents, too
numerous to mention. Even the
young men and children did not forget
"Graudma," who especially appre'
ciated their kind remembrance of her.
Too much cannot be said Of the royal
manner in which the guests we're en-
tertained. The daughters of the
worthy lady we're present, and assisted
10 extending a hearty welcome. and
serving most delicious refreshments to
all.
The occasion being celebrated by a
dinner party, at a late hour 10 the
afternoon, the guests departed, all ex,
pressing themselves highly entertained
aud wishing the aged lady many years
of health and happiness.

VIM. Mong Goes Down for Seven
Years.
The Derr;cL's Clar;on correspond

The Derrick's Clarion correspondent
says, under date of April %:
The case of the Commonwealth VS..
Daniel Walters and William MoDg,
charged with burglary, was taken up
on Tuesday morning. The defendants
we're charged with having broken into
the house Of Mrs. Margaret Knapp, in
Pennington township, during the
night time, in September last, and
assaulted her and her daughter Mary
with intent to commit rape. The oc-
cupants of the house at the time of
the outrage consisted of Mrs. Margaret
Knapp, her daughter, Mary Knapp,
and two children Of the latter, boy
Of eleven and a girl Of seven years.
Mrs. Margaret Knapp is over 70 years
of age. A full account Of the alleged
crime has heretofore been published.
The defendants were tried at the last
January court before Judge Neale, of
Kittanning, and convicted, but he
granted them new trial. The de.
fense set up was an alibi-that is, that
the defendants were elsewhere than at
the place where the crime was perpe.
trated at the time of its commission.
-
The jury retired last Wednesday at 10
o'clock. They came into court on
Friday at 8 o'clock and asked for
further instructions, which we're given
them, when they again retired, and
an hour afterward brought in a YER
dict that Walters was not guilty, but
that Mong was guilty in manner and
form as indicted. Relief and salts
faction we're plainly discernable on
Walters countenance. He was out
on bail, and had been anxiously wait.

days for the verdict. His wife, 9
rather prepossessing young woman
and to whose testimony on the question
of an alibi the jury evidently gave
considerable weight, had been in at

but was not present when it was an

Reckless Bravery.

For a piece of foolhardy bravery l
think the following "lays over" any
thing 1 ever heard. quote, verbatim,
from letter just received from Mid
die Park, Colorado: 1.-TWO COW boys,
John Fetters and Alex. Walker, were
on Wilford Mountain the other day.
It's quite a steep climb for horse,
but cattle work clear to the top, as it
has no timber on three sides except
scattering cedars, and plenty of sage
brush. While prospecting around on
top they spied two mountain lioDs
(panthers). What do the fellows do,
but banter each other to "rope" them.
So tying the end of the rope to the
saddle.horn away they went. l don't
think either of them seriously thought
they could run onto them, but they
did, and both made good throw,
each one catching his "meat." When
the ropes frightened, the horses saw
what they had and stampeded down
the mountain. Away they went as
hard as the horses could run down
that awful mountain side, with the
panthers turning summersaults at the
end of 40-foot rope, and when they
got their horses stopped at the foot Of
the mountain, the psnthers we're both
dead. The largest one measured s
feet 8 inches from tip to tip"
My correspondent is acquainted
with both parties and vouches for the
truth of the above.

which settled on her lungs; she was

was hopeless victim of consumption and
that no medicine could cure her. Her
