Hagenbuch last evening with the theft Of
500. Beans admitted the charge, made
restitution and departed this morning for
Philadelphia The clerk arrived in Nah
anoy City about four months ago. He
was not Of extremely preposessing ap-
pearance, in fact he looked much like the
picture of Anarchist Herr Most. with
his full fat face and heavy beard, but he
drew many admirers about him by
accounts Of the large money he had made
at different times i'm horse racing and of
the big stable of fast trotters he sup
ported at Gravesend and Gloucester.
Mr.. Hagenbuch told reporter this
morning that he had suspected something
wrong for some time but disliked to ac-
cuse Mr. Beans. The store had a good
patronage but receipts were small and il
became necessary to reduce the clerks
salary from fifty to forty dollars per
month. 1t might incidentally be re-
marked that out Of this amount Beans
paid his board and supported family in
Philadelphia

sent several of his friends to make pur-
chases They reported that the clerk
failed to ring up the amount on the cash
register, and on looking over the sales
book the proprietor found no record of
such cash receipt.
Last evening when the proprietor made
the accusation he caused Officer Hassel
to come upon the scene When the clerk
caught sight of the burly blue coat, he
became much disturbed, walked up and
down the store occasionally Jerking
whisker from his bushy beard. He asked
Mr. Hagenbuch what he thought would
cover the amount of his peCulations and
when the proprietor named a figure he
pulled wallet from his pocket and
handed over the amount

MR.. BEDDALL RESIGNS.

Gives Up a Responsible Position He Held
for Many ears.
Mr.. $. A. Beddall, of town, has resigned
from the position of land agent and min
ing engineer for the Gilbert and Sheafer
Estates in Shenandoah and Gilberton, a
position he has ably filled for twenty
three years. He knew the colliery work
ings and the surface land lines OF the es-
tates thoroughly. 1t is understood that
the severance Of the connection comes
from Mr.. Beddalls suggestion and the
officials of the estates parts with his Yalu-
able services with great reluctance. The
resignation will take effect on May 1st.
Mr.. Beddall has not decided upon his
future, but as he is too young TO retire
to an inactive life we may expect to soon
hear from him in some other important
field. He will remain in Shenandoah for
the present

MCCLURE.

The new year was ushered in with
"a good deal of noise. The shoot,
ing match passed off pleasantly and
some of our crack shots" went
homo with happy hearts. Among
them were G. II. Klose, John Bak ker
and G.. Il. Enterline. Quite few
of our hunters could not allow this
snow to pass by without taking ad-
vantage of it. OF course, since the
rabbit season is over they were hunt
ing for 'possums but some of the
'possums had rather long ears and
short tail. >. A fantastic parade,
headed by Capt. Geo. Dunn, passed
through here on new year en- route
to Adamsburg The leading social
event of the season was the turkey
dinner at DIR. II. Rothrock's on New
Year. G. w. Decker and wife, l. j.
Botdorf and family, G.. Il. Enterline

Miss Gertie Ulsh were the guests

dinner. Her son took his target gun
to shoot it and starting out of the
house with the gun, he fooled with
the hammer, thinking it was not
loaded, when suddenly the gun dis
charged, the ball passing through
the door and entering his mothers
leg above the knee. DIR. Rothrock
dressed the wound and located the
ball in the muscles of the leg -.

La Grippe Again.

The re-appearance OF the Grip"
calls to mind the experience Of Jas
o. Jones, publisher of the Leader
Mexia, Texas. He was sick la bed
for ten days with the grip during
its prevalence n year or two ago.
Later In the season he had IA second
attack. He says: "In the latter case
used Chamderlain's Cough Remedy
and with considerable snccess,
think. only being in bed little over
two days. The second attack, | am
satisfied, would have been equally
as bad as the frat, but for the use OF
this remedy" IL should be oorne in
mind that the grip Is much the same
as very severe cold and requires
precisely the same treatment. When
you wish to cure cold quickly and
effectually give this remedy trial

PORT TREvoRToN.

Joseph Lesher OF the Times was
in town a few moments last week.
Our Christmas festivities afforded
greater enjoyment than we, under
the prevailing circumstances, had a
right TO expect. The epicures of
thought found food for their COM
prehensions that should awaken
some attention to the almost univer-
sal neglect of proper observance
of this holy day. But then it will
take our people some time to &C.
knowledge that these reciprocal and
matter of form gifts, and the pleas
ure of the gourmapd, which at ttis
time know not circumscription, ere
all robbing charity OF the vesture
with which she would fain cover the
nakedness Of the poor. On Friday
took place the funeral OF Mother
Rhoads. It was indeed sad burial
and one likely to dwell in the mem
cries OF those in attendance for
some time. The weight of sorrow
fell to the lot of those who most in
timately knew her, as her last of kin
had passed away some thirty years
before. :. We ere fully aware that
our chirography is not Of the highest
order Of legibility, yet, unless the
printers assistant was suffering
from a severe attack Of pink-eye, we
can scarcely conceive how he failed
to distinguish between the words,
unusual and unmuscular, in speak
ing of the appearance Of the river in
the last issue. Now come, Charlie,
that won't do. BITTER SWEET.
