Clearfield Journal; j. r. Murphy, OF
this place, purchased from Dezuey Biliot,
of Frenchville, last week, little doe fawn
supposed to be about six weeks old. Mr..
Murphy is very proud of his little pet,
which is beauty, and has placed it with
the one Philip Lucas sold to Fred Carbon

of young fawns as ever was seen, being OF

There's but one prisoner in the Jail of
Indiana county, Pa, and he doesn't care
to get out. The Messenger says: "He is
charged with having three or four wives,
and they are not on the best of terms with
him; which fact, in connection with the
additional fact that he has a mo her-in-law
for each wife, has much to do with his
disposition to stay where he is. Life is

Big Run, Jefferson county, heads the
list with new secret society called the
American Eagles, which is to be organized
throughout the country for political pur-

Junior Sons of 70; govern and control
the political parties of the country about
as much as the Salvation Army does the

political party can long exist in this coun-
try without being based upon some Ma
tional principles.-C -ClearJield journal.

niscences of early oildom Saturday after
noon, and the conversation turned on the
difference between the banking facilities
now and then. Stories were told of car
rying money from TitusYille to Pleasant
vile and to Tidioute after night, when
they expected to be waylaid every min

for some time, said; 81 had an experience
once that makes me bless the existence OF
April FOOLS day. I was going to Titus
vile one morning on the train. "By''
Taylor was conductor and Ed Sack ett
flagman. Just before the train started

package and asked me to give it to John
Satterfeld when saw him. told him
yes, and he carefully pinned it in my in.
| side vest pocket, and told me that it con.
tanned $4,000. After walking to Titusville
l walked square up the street and saw
Satterfield coming down driving his little
dun mare. reached in my pocket, bu
the package was gone. l tore back to tn,
depot just in time to see Sackett kick thu
package off the car platform with som,
sarcastic remarks about people trying t
April fool him. 1 picked it up with boil
hands, and never let go my grip until
saw it safe in Satterfield's hands. When
examined my pocket 1 found that tht
Captain had slipped the packet between
the vest and shirt and had carefully pinned
the top of the pocket together. 1 never
acted as bank runner for anyone else
one experience was enough. ."-Derrick.
