A Mob outwittea.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 26.--When
Arthur Watson, the self confessed
murderer of his sweetheart, Amanda
Cain, was expected TO be
brought into court in Cow
ington this forenoon there
were 1000 persons in and
about the court room. Many
of them we're from Independence,
where the murder took place. The
state of feeling was such that the
Judge declined to order the prisoner
brought into court before such a
dangerous crowd. He waited until
noon, when everybody supposed the
case was postponed until tomorrow
and the court room was cleared
Watson was then hastily
brought in, and he waived examina-
ton and was held without bail to
await the action of the grand jury
He is entirely free from anxiety now
that he escaped the fury of the mob

Terrible rains which prevailed the
past week throughout the entire
state, caused almost incalculatle
damage 10 the cotton crop. The rain

AUSTIN, TEX, Sept. 24.-The
cotton crop situation in this section
has changed since the last report.
Many planters who calculated on
half bale to the acre now say they

by worms and excessive rains during
the last few months.
OVERFLOW OF THE RIO GRANDE.

overflow of the Rio Grande river
continues to cause great damage in
the neighborhood of Rio Grande
City. 1t has reached a higher stage
than ever known, and acres of rich
bottom land between Rio Grande
City and Brownsville have
been washed away. Several
hundred poor Mexicans living
on land which is close to
the river nave been made homeless
and penniless, not only their jackals,
which served as habitations, but
little patches of corn were washed
away, the ground going with them.
The river just IN front OF Rio Grande
City has changed its course SO COM
pletely as to throw several hundred
acres Of land on the Mexican side.
An island of 500 acres in extent has
been formed just opposite Fort
Ringgold by the river turning off a
point of land that extended from the
United States side in the original
stream.

linstion to Chairman Clarkson, Mr.. Har-
rison would have let him have the field to
HIMSELF but to come cut now and intrigue,
or permit his friends to intrigue, to defeat
the President is an ungrateful act un-
worthy of Mr.. Blaine and one which,
should he be nominated, will inspire his
chances for election"
However this may be, there is a little
enthusiasm for the Plumed Knight No
one is more out.spoken in his support than
Lawyer William D. Seltzer He made
bet with Edward Heiser, the veterinary
surgeon, that Mr.. Blaine would be
nominated. The stakeholder is Col.
Thomas H. Rickert, of 7th Pa. Cavalry
fame, and the weight of the stake money
is so great that the Colonel walks with
difficulty and is getting stoop shouldered.
One silver dollar was wagered on side.
FOR THE LEGISLATURE,
Our ticket in the Fourth District for the
Legislature is composed of Messrs. Cooper,
Losch and Kennedy Notwithstanding
the comfortable Republican mai lrity these
candidates have to fall back on, it is possi-
BILE that one Of them, at least, may not get
elected. 1t has happened 50 before, and we
admonish the gentlemen to have an eye to
the windward. The Democrats will likely
nominate Alphonso II. Farini, at present a
law student in Mr. Whitehouses office.
He is eminently qualified for the position !;
in fact, he is the best qualified of all on
either side who have been named. We
cannot even except our owr candidates.
If he should be nominated, and there is
every reason to believe he will be, he will
have plenty of backing from members of
both parties, and some one on our ticket is
going to suffer.
| We must look matters squarely in the
face and not boast of success just because
there is majority of Republicans in the
district. Take my word for it, Mr.. Farini
will be no sloth in the canvass should the
Democrats place him on their ticket.
Peter Bauer, of Schuylkill Haven
George Opie, of Donaldson, and Mr..
Gallagher, of fremont, are also candidates
for Legislature, subject to Democratic
rules. AS it is conceded Pottsville is en-.
titled to one of the three to be named, Mr..
Farini is very certain to be on the ticket
as he is the only candidate from the county
seat now in the field and besides the field
is likely to be left clear for him. N.

The question of increasing the school
term from nine to ten months created con-
siderable discussion. In support of a
motion to that effect it was argued that the

the shorter term rule. The motion to make
the term ten months finally carried.

DID YOU EVER!
80 s. Main ST., Shenandoah,

Think what it cost TO manufacture Baking
Powder? Did you ever think how baking pow
der is soldY Did you ever think there must be
large profit in IL somewhere? The manufac-
turer of a certain baking powder pay out nearly
million dollars or more year advertising
their powder, trying to make people believe IT
is the best made. Their baking powder is sold
at soc per pound The retailer makes his profit,
the jobber makes his profit, the manufacturer
makes his profit, and the consumer pays for all
these and the newspaper advertising also,
What does it cost to manufacture the powder?
Other manufacturers give away 25 or 30 cents
worth of china, glassware, toys, hardware,
books, ETC.. with every pound of baking pow
der. Again the query, what does it cost to
manufacture the powder-can you think it out2
You don't need to. Girvin, Duncan & Waid-
ley have few words on the baking powder
question. Until september we WI sell Penn
sylvania Baking Powder at TEN CENTS per
pound. 1t doesn't concern you whether we
make or lose on tive want TO get il intro
duced. On and after September lst our price
will not exceed l5c per pound
We are not going to pay million dollars to
advertise it; we are not going to give away any
premiums with tive are going to sell it, every
pound guaranteed, to our customers If it does
not give satisfaction, bring it back and receive
your money,
Why do we say this? We expect it will please
you, Why should you pay 35 or 40c profit on
every pound Of powder you buy!
Don't forget we strive TO give our customers
the advantage of inside prices at which we buy
all sorts of goods.
