Bad Tramps.

Huntingdon Globe, April Ga
big caravan" of tramps were quar-
tered about the car works last week.
There were fifteen or twenty of them.
They hed plenty of money, more
whisky than would be needed to
float a boat, and they got drunk ev
cry night. On Friday one of the
number purchased steel drill and
some gun powder ct Laird's hard
ware store, which was evidently Sc
cured for the purpose of doing some
fine burglary work at night. Burgess
Black and the police got on the mat
ter, however, and instructed the
electric light people 10 burn the
lights all night, which was done Wig
liant committees araied the streets,
loaded to the skin with rev0lvers,
but the tramps did not appear.
They have since departed. People
in the adjacent towns should keep
their eyes on them. They are bad
set, very bad SET, and should be
driven out of the country.

Tansy Kills Moth.

There is one sure preventive Of
moths, and one which 1 have never
seen mentioned. 1t is tansy. Sprin-
kle the leaves freely, about your wool
ems and furs, and the moths will new
er get into them. When 1 was a
child my grandfather used to send
me to the tansy patch on the hill
with large basket in which to bring
home plenty of tansy leaves. In the
garr were five large hair-covered
trunks, studded with brass nails, fill
ed with her best blankets, coverlets,
flannel sheets, &c. Some of them
had never been used until my grand
mother had grandchildren, notwith-
standing she always had large fam
lily to provide for. But the supply
of her bedding, linen and other house
hold articles, was in excess of the de-
mand
This large amount of bedding, ta-
bic cloths, towels and linen sheets
was spun and woven in her fathers
house, and the girls were given full
liberty to take all they were willing
to make up for themselves. That
was part of their marriage dover. 1

mounted on elegant card ensmeled

ity to to the Aristo Photo have

all those wishing the Aristo picture,

The extensive patronage and the

the very latest designs giving our
trade the benefit of that which wonld

Farm Buildings Burned.

The Altoona Tribune of April 6,
gives the following account of farm
buildings burning in Morrison Cove.
Tuesday night, April 4, about 8
o'clock, David Moore was on his way
home and in passing The residence of
Mrs John Shubert, located on the
Morrison Cove turn pike about two
miles from this place, discovered a
fire in the entry of the stable of Mrs.
Shubert. He alarmed the family
and went to work with a will, and
with aid the fire was extinguished
and the building saved. Several
bundles of fence pickets were in the
stable and it was discovered, after the
fire was out, and they had been sat
urated with coal oil.
About 10 o'clock the same night
tue barn of Johan Yiugling, adjoin-
ing the village Of Sharpsburg, WAS
discovered to be in flames, which
were beyond control. The barn
with all its contents-grain crops,
hay, harness, agricultural nipple
ments, eleven horses and seven cows
were destroyed. One wagon and two
plows were saved. OF wheat, 500
bushels, and OF corn, 800 bushels,
were also burned Dir. Yinglings
loss is estimated $1,000 with $1,000
insurance.
The wind was blowing a regular
hurricane, and the sparks and burn
ing shingles from Yipglings barn
were carried distance of an eighth
of mile, and falling upon the barn
of A. c. Cowen, set that building on
fire, and it was entirely consumed.
In the structure were five head of
cattle, which were burned to death.
Mr. Governs loss is about 81, 900, on
which there is no insurance. This
barn was an old one and it will be
replaced by new one the coming
summer. George Ylngling resides
on tho farm of Mr.. Courn, and his
barn, wagon-shed and straw-shed
were on fire, but by an extra effort
were saved.
William Marsden is the next neigh
Dor Of George Yingling and his farm
is located on the east. His house
and barn with everything he owned
Was burned. Mr.. Marsden purchas-
ed this place during the past winter
and moved there but few weeks
ago His loss is estimated at $1,000
with no insurance.
On the east Of Mr.. Marden's farm
is that of N. NJ Moore. His house
and barn were also burned, tho live
stock and the sewing machine being
the only things saved. Loss $4,000,
with 81, 200 insurance in the Williams.
burg Insurance Company.
Mrs. Shubert was working at MIR.
Governs ard when informed of the
fire at her home, she, in her great
excitement, started in her stocking z
feet, and ran to her abode, which
was about half a mile away. As she
hurried along, she met two men, who
jumped over fence into a field and
ran away. The presumption is that
John Yinglings barn was set on fire
and from this blaze the others caught
So fierce was the wild that the barn
Of Mr.. Tipton, perhaps n mile away
was in danger, and the stock was re.
moved therefrom.

Reservati tiOns 0f Pullman Ac-
CO IN IN O dat1Ons for the
Worlds Fair on the
Pennsylvan1a a Rail-
road.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany announces that arrangements
have been perfected whereby passen-
gers intending to 60 to Chicago may
reserve their Pullman Car Accommo
dations in advance. Passengers
taking q train at New York may re-
serve the requisite Pullman space
one month in advance of departure,
those from other points on the sys-
tenn two weeks in advance. This ar
rangement may be made upon appi-
cation to ticket agents of the Penn
sylvania Railroad, who, after secur-
ing the space will deliver a reserva-
ton slip to the passenger. Passen
gers thus reserving space in advance
will be required to purchase their
tickets seven days before the date of
departure, otherwise the reservation
will be considered as forfeited.
Accommodations in Pullman cars
for the return trip may also be secur-
ed upon application to the ticket
agents of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
This arrangement will prove great
benefit to visitors to the Worlds
Fair.

A contributor to the Lewistown
Gazette, says: Frederick Douglas,
who was born slave on the eastern
shore of Maryland, a few weeks ago
visited his native place, during which
he visited a colored school. He des-
cribed colored boy six years old,
who had lost both parents; he slept
on dirt floor in hovel, and often
crept into meal bag head foremost,
with his feet sticking out towards
the fire; he woui1 often roast an ear
of corn or hunt few eggs to satisfy
his hunger; learnt to spell from an
old Webster spelling book, and to
read and write from bills on cellar
and barn doors. That boy was Fred
Douglas. Under republican admin
istrations he became presidential
elector, U. S. marshall, recorder for
the district and diplomat. Had
slavery continued what would the
present condition of the colored race
BET Perhaps some of them who vote
the democratic ticket can tell.

Wrong Doors In 1892.

The Chester News in speaking of
the February Term of Court says:
The unhappy people who are be-
ing sent to Jail or have costs TO pav
at Media, this week can thank their
stars that they did not live in the
early days of the colony of Pennsyl-
vania.
The assembly that convened at
Chester Dec. 4th, 1892, enacted a.
code OF laws that made the people of
the new colony live up to the mark,
and while many OF the severe penal
ties of the Duke of York's code were
