, On the morning of the 29th of
last June Two men giving their
names as Henry Heeman ard
Harvey Jones, called at the
livery stable of Mr.. Brown, in
Jersey Shore, with fine horse,
which they desired to trade to the
liveryman. A fair exchange of
horses between the parties took
place when the men left. Yester-
day Patrick f. Bennen and q man
claiming to be detective by the
name of G.. G. Hollen, both of To-
wanda, arrived at Browns stables
and asked to see his horses. When
their eyes lighted on the one which
Brown had received from Messrs.
Heeman and Jones, Mr.. Bennen at
once claimed the horse as his proper.
ty. Brown after some parley de-
livered the horse to the Towanda
lnen when they left. 1t is now as
serted that the whole thing is put
up job, as the detective is related to
one of the thieves and rs reward
was offered for the capture of the
horse the thief put his relative onto
the liveryman SO as to secure the
reward and keep it in the family.
Of course this latter assertion is
based entirely upon supposition.
Mr.. Brown has since located his
horse in Philipsburg, but as yet he
does not know whether he has q
legal claim on the horse OF not.
The authorities in this country will
likely try and capture Heeman and
Jones, as it is reported that they
stayed at Salladasburg last Tuesday
night and at English Centre last
Wednesday night.-Williamsport

STEELTON, July 30, 1898.

Notwithstanding the great depres-
sion in. business, throughout the
country, the Pennsylvania Steel
Company keep their mills running,
but how long they will continue no
one can tell under the present con-
dition of affairs in this country.
The good times promised 10y the
democl is last fall are proving dis
astrous 10 business and individuals
in all sections of the country. There
seems to be no confidence in the
democratic administration. This
has been properly termed the
democratic Panic of 1885," and
sorrowful one it will be for every
body. Those banners displayed
last fall containing this inscription
"Cheaper Clothing, Cheaper Goods"
etc, all amount TO nothing as long
as nothing can be earned to buy the
goods and clothing. But it is Demo
cratic Reform and rebel brigadiers.
Hoke Smiths order in regard 10
pensions, seems like hanging n
murderer then trying him for the
crime. But what can we expect of
a man who was compelled by force
Of arms, to become q citizen Of the
United States. Why, he has set
himself up as dictator and over
rules all law in reference to pen
sions. The law points out the re
quirements of an applicant for a
pension and if he falsifes his ape
plication or proofs, he is liable to
punishment. But Hoky is law,
court, council and jury, and would
be q witness to swear an old crippled
union soldier out Of his pension if
he could.
Now / propose the democrats
make a banquet Of the tin roosters
displayed in their parades last fall,
and then 60 into retirement for all
time to come.
The citizens electric railway
company run their cars into town
on last Thursday evening-the
road being completed this far.
The American Iron and Tube
Company went into the hands ofre-
ceivers last Friday. The Lochiel
Rolling, shut down indefinitely on
Saturday. Since writing the above
the Penna. Steel Company have
blown out two blast furnaces and
suspended work at their merchant
mill.
And rs a democratic administra-
tion in which there is no confidence
with Mr.. Cleveland sitting on his
brains fishing.

SmnSlaY AT the Fair.

WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, CHICA-
GO, July 30.-The exposition was
open to-day under the order of the
court, but the attendance was ex-
tremely light. The grounds were
almost deserted, and the visitors in
the buildings might easily have
been counted. During the morning
hours about the only persons enter
ing the gates were exhibitors, their
helpers and others employed in the
grounds, but between noon and 3
o'clock the cars landed few visitors
at The gates.
There was no attraction in the
evening to draw crowd. There
was no music or entertainment OF
any character in the main grounds
and the people betook themselves
10 the Plasance, where the attract
ions, with two exceptions, were run
ming as usual. The weather was
delightful.

The "tightness of money" or the
general depression in business
throughout the country is gradually
working itself around until the
average citizen and those who de-
pend on their daily toll are begin
ming to feel the pinch. When this
stage is reached those who suffer
most from panic will be required
to face q situation far from encourag-
ing to them. When the trouble first
began, when that "lack of conf
dence" as to the future became
manifest, only few had the actual
experience of feeling the monetary
lines tightening. But now we hear
of factories closing for an indefinite
period, Of the hours of work being
cut down and of the force in many
establishments being reduced.
Man ufacturers, finding orders cur
tailed, are forced to meet the issue
and men must be laid off. Capital
lists and bankers are boarding their
money, and the dollars in circula-
tion are decreasing. This unfortun-
ate state of affairs is TO be regretted,
but everybody is hoping that it will
not be of long duration. The man
whose confidence is shaken is being
begged to "have confidence" and
the average citizen is wondering as
to the cause. One significant fact
in the face of the whole matter, how.
ever, is that the party in power is
not laying the blame at the Republi
can door even the Mckinley tariff
is not accused. Therefore the mis-
take of a change that so many peo-
pile demanded will make itself all
the more manifest.

The text of the act authorizing
The election of Tax Collectors for
three years provides that "the quail
fled voters of every borough or
township in the Commonw wealth of
Pennsylvania, shall ON the third
Tuesday of February, after the pas
sage of this act (the act was passed
i'll May) and triennially thereafter,
vote for and elect one properly
qualified person for tax collector in
each of said districts, who shall
serve for the term of three years,
and shall give bond annually to be
approved by the court" 1t will be
seen, therefore, that all collectors
elected in February, 1894, will be
elected for term Of three years.

Difficulties.

The Outcome of the Recent street Car
Difficulties.
As was stated in yesterday mornings
REGISTER warrants had been issued for
the arrest of several of the assailants
in the recent street car difficulty. The
warrants were sworn out at the in
stance Of the non-union men in charge
OF the car Nina" which was assaulted
so lively on Tuesday. The parties ar
rested were John Coniff, conductor; j.
NJ. Johnson, operator, and VIM. Meyer,
conductor. Coniff and johnson were
taken before Squire Ankle, and bound
over for their appearance this after
noon at two o'clock. Meyer was
taken before Justice Phillips, who held
him in bond for appearance next Mon
day at ten O'clock.
All was peaceful along the line yes
terday. The Company had ten cars on
the track, six around the loop, and
four on the Martins Ferry end Of the
line, although the run was not made
clear through on account of the mud.
No disturbances OF any kind &C.
Cured. The travel on the cars was
considerably increased yesterday.
Manager jolly states that among the
many applications for jobs there have
already been several from the strikers.
There have already been twenty-three
applications. If taken back all will
have TO conform to the rules Of the
Company.
The Chief Of Police is taking great
precautions TO prevent any further dis
turbance Of the peace. Three officers
were on duty at Forty-third street,
Yesterday, two at Forty-eighth and two
at Ford's crossing.
No attempt will be made to run the
cars at night for awhile. "Within
thirty days, as soon as the power plant
is ready, some eighteen or twenty cars
will be put on, giving five minute SER
vice around the loop" says Manager
jolly.

BABIES ONFIRE

Babies burning up, babies in agony
from itching and burning eczemas and
other torturing, disfguring, itching,
burning, bleeding, scaly and blotchy
skin and scalp diseases. None but
mothers realize how these little ones
suffer when their tender skins are liter
ally on fire. To know that single APP
plication OF the CUTIcUBA REMEDIES
will in the great majority Of cases afford
instant relief. permit rest and sleep,
and point to 8 permanent and economi-
cal because most speedy cure, and not
to use them Is to fail in your duty.
Think Of the years of suffering entailed
by such neglect, years not only of phys
ical but of mental suffering by reason Of
personal Disagreement. Why delay a
moment longer the use Of these great
skin cures, blood purifiers, and humor
remedies? Cures made in infancy and
childhood are speedy, economical, and
almost invariably permanent.

RECOLLECTIONS.

What blessed thing is memoryl How
it brings up the pleasures of the past,
and hides its unpleasantness! You re-
call your childhood days, do you not,
aud wish they would return? You re-
member the pleasant associations, while
the unpleasant ones are forgotten. Per-
haps to your mind comes the face Of
some friend. 1t was once a pale, sad
face. 1t showed marks ofpain, lines OF
care. 1t seemed to be looking into the
hereafter, the unknown future. And
then you recalled how it frightened,
how it recovered its rosy hue, how it be-
came a picture Of happiness aud joy.
Do you remember these things? Many
people do, ard gladly tell how the
health returned, how happiness came
back, how the world seemed bright.
They tell how they were once weak,
nerveless, perhaps in pain, certainly I'M
happy. They tell of sleepless nights,
restless days, untouched food, unstrung
nerves. And thea they tell how they
became happy, healthy and strong once
more. You have heard it often in the
past, have you not? You have heard
people describe how they were cured
and kept in health? You certainly can
remember what it is that has so helped
people in America. II not, listen 10
what Mrs. Annie JenEesS Miller, who is
known universally as the great dress re-
former, says: "Sx years ago, when
suffering from mental care and over
work, received the most pronounced
benefit from the use Of that great med
icine, Warmers Safe Cure" Alb, now
you remember. Now you recall how
many people you have heard say this
same thing. Now you recollect how
much you have heard Of this great
Cure. Now you are ready to admit
that memory is usually pleasing, that
the highest pleasure comes from per-
feet health, and that this great remedy
has done more to produce and prolong
health than any other discovery ever
known In the entire history Of the whole
world.

The local politicians of both parties

endeavoring to figure out what the final

those who claimed to know what was
going on that the deals between dissat-
isfed men in both parties included the
offices of Board of Public Works, the
City Solicitor and the City Receiver,

ranged to the liking of those engaged
in it. Counter plots are also on foot,

most of the offices will be mixed up in

Kicking On Gas Bills.

There was good deal Of figuring
on gas bills about town yesterday, and
not few people came TO the conclusion
they were the victims of inaccurate
metres. One man told reporter his
bill for December was 81 %. His wife
determined to economic, and bought a
lamp, using IL entirely in two rooms OF
the house, while she made it rule TO
only have one gas jet burning at time
in the rest OF the house. The
January bill was $3.50. Another
man said his bill was 50 for January,
while in neighboring saloon, where
several burners ran all night, the bill
was less.
On natural gas bills the kicking was
quite as hard. One man said he tore
out his CRATE burners, the last OF De-
cember, and put in two gas-saving
stoves. His January bill was 81 larger
than before, although there was no gas
to speak of a good deal of the time. An
other family couldn't keep house with
gas during the late cold snap, and shut
it off entirely and burned wood, only
going back to gas the last of the month,
yet the bill was bigger than ever be-
fore. Several gas consumers said their
January fuel bills were the largest they
had ever paid.

a Distinction without a Difference.

WHEELING, FeOruary ., 1885
To he Editor Of the Rooster:
DEAR SIR:-You will do the members
of the Street Car Workers Union ia
vor by correcting a misstatement in
your issue Of Wednesday, which is to
the effect that Chief McNichol and
Mayor Caldwell called on the Manager
OF the Rail way Company to try to effect
a settlement Of our difficulty. There
was no authority for such 4 statement
as our Union merely requested the
Mayor and Chief to call on Mr.. Jolly
and ascertain if the statements we have
made to the public were not true. The
difficulty is still in the hands of the Ar
bitraton Committee of the Trades As
sembly, and any settlement must be
made through them, as the Railway
Company have not as yet signifed their
desire to leave the settlement of the
trouble to three outside parties, which
is the fairest way to settle difficulties
between employers and employees known
to the American people.
Yours, &C,
STREET CAR WORKERS UNION.
