Even IL You Get the Mitten Your Intended
Won't Know Her Victim.
WASHINGTON, June IA dweiler in Hick-
ory, Washington county, has come to the
front with an amusing scheme for those who
desire to secure good husbands or wives.
He has circular printed containing full in.
!structions, which, if followed out by the
parties receiving them, he promises will
bring them life of joy and happiness The
following extracts are taken from PAM
plet that fell into THE DISPATCH correspond.
eRts hands:
''Miss Nv:
"DEAR FRIEND-In pursuance of our busi-
we have received a communication from a
gentleman friend of yours who names you
as one for whom he has great respect, and
with whom he wishes to cultivate more in
innate acquaintance, with q view of mutual
pleasure in each others society, and per-
hapS marriage
Then follows minute instructions as to the
manner in which the correspondence is to
be carried on. The first paragraph reads
thus: "Send us the names of several of your
gentlemen friends whom you love and re-
spect and whose further acquaintance
you desire. If we find in the list the
person who sent us your name, we will then
know that there exists mutual attract
between you, and We will inform each of
You of the fact"
Further on this remarkable document ex-
plains: "If your list don't contain the name
Of the person who sent yours, we will not
reply, our continued silence after two weeks
being sufficient. Then, after awhile, If you
will most likely contain the desired name.
The beauty of this system is. that if you get
the mitten' no person but yourself will know
it-not even the person who mittens you"

JOHN KNOX's CLOCK.
Once Owned by One of the Signers of the
Declaration of Independence.


HUNTINGDON, June IA remarkable clock
is owned here by W. II. Woods, which will
be taken to the Worlds Fair and placed on
exhibition there as being the most valuable
historical relic OF the days of John Knox
The clock was built at Paisley, Scotland, by
John Skeoch, in 1850, for John Knox, who
died in 1862. This big eight-day clock has
been handed down through the family for
$50 years, finally coming into the possession
of John Witherspoon, father of one of the
signers of the Declaration of Independence.
When John Witherspoon, the son, left
Scotland in K6S, to take charge of Princeton
College, he took the old clock with him, and
it was ticking in his parlor when he was
elected to the old Continental Congress
When he died his will stated that it should
remain in the family, and descend to the
first born of each succeeding generation.
In this way it reached the present owner,
who is a lineal descendant of John Knox.
The clock is eight feet high, built of rose
wood, with brass works of very heavy make.
1t is very handsome, and is still good time

JoHNsTowN's NEW RAILROAD
To Be Built by the Pennsylvania Compan
to Develop New Coal Fields.

10 DEVELOP New Coal F1eIds.
JoHNsTowN, June H-It is now pretty
nearly a sure thing that Johnstown will
have another railroad connection. The new
line which is being built from kaylor's sta
tion along the Ebensburg branch TO develop
the coal fields in the north of Cambria
county viii also.be extended to the BIacklick
region, in Indiana and Cambria counties. A
branch of the Pennsylvania line, which has
been recently laid along the Conemaugh
river on the old towpath, will connect with
this end of the new road and the towpath
line will be extended TO this city, where 1t
will make connection with the Pennsylvania
road.
Judge White of Indiana, says the settle
ment of the mortgage on the Ebensburg
branch and its purchase by the Pennsylva-
mia Company is convincing proof that they
want full control for the purpose of devel-
oping the coal fields in the two counties.

DIR. j. p. Wickersham, of Lancaster, will
materially affect the alumni exercises OF the
Pennsylvania State Normal College, of Mil
lersville. DR.. Wickersham was one of the
early principals of this college, which is the
oldest in the State, and the exercises on
July were intended as a celebration Of the
twenty fifth anniversary of his promotion
TO the superintendency of public instruction
in Pennsylvania.
Among the alumni of this famous college
are members of Congress, judges, ministers,
and many men prominent in every path of
life and it was intended to make the oeea-
sion memorable in honor of the aged in
structor, who had taught many of the guests
in the early days of the college. His death,
however, will greatly mar the exercises and
instead of day of rejoicing, it will consist
largely of memorial exercises.
