NEwSY NOTES.

Erie is this week in the throes of GEN.
tennial celebration.
Dow in Indiana county, potatoes are
so plentiful that prophets claim they will
be selling at 10 cents bushel by Nov.
lst.
The Presbyterian Synod of Pennsyl-
vania will meet in annual session in the
Presbyterian church at Butler, Pa,
Thursday, oct.7.
The Era says that there at least 23
cases of typhoid fever in Bradford, and
some are quite severe. Several deaths
last week from this dread disease. The
water is said to be impure.
Hon. q. Binker of Potter township, who
has been more or less indisposed for four
or five years, died at his home at Binker-
ton yesterday, in his 74th year. He had
been county treasurer, associate judge
and member of the State Legislature
Clarion Jacksonian.
1t is said that there are in the State of
Kansas 20 we'll built towns without sin
gle inhabitant. Saratoga, in that State,
has 5000 opera house and a number
of fine business houses, and yet there is
not single person to claim that city as
his home. At Fargo a herder and his
family constitute the sole population OF
what was once an incorporated city.
Pierre Bruno, the Italian who killed
Jos. Picerne in Warren last Memorial
day, has been captured at Mt. Morris, N.
Y. District Attorney Dunkle received a
letter last Monday from the Sheriff at
GeDesee, n. Y, that the murderer had
been found, and the Sheriff was instruc-
ted to bring him here If he will come
voluntarily. If not extradition papers
will be secured by Sheriff Howard and
Bruno brought here. At last June court
Bruno was indicted for murder, and can
be tried next December.-Mail.
Swindling old soldiers who are draw
ing pensions is favorite psstime now,
and brings to those engaged in the busi-
ness money which is easier eal ned than
robbing stage coaches, banks, etc. Al
Green Briar, o., last Saturday, two dash
ing fellows with fine rig, drawn by two
snow white horses, drove up to an old
soldiers home and, claiming that they
were government officials, got S35 in
cash and the old mans note for $l4S
This was given to avoid arrest for OBJ
tanning his pension fraudlently.-Me cad
vile Tribune.
Some few things are settled about the
fashions of the oncoming season. Furs
are to be as popular as ever, and little
higher in price than ever. 1t was pre-
dieted that the full cape had had its day
1t has. The fashionable cape for the
winter of 1896 is to be fuller. The
leading house of furriers in the world
the one that makes the styles in furs
which obtain in Paris, is a famous Ber,
| lin establishment. Their samples
which are supposed to be seen fol
months yet only by wholesale buyers
show great many "half length" capes
reaching to the wrists when the hands
fall at the sides. Every cape is so full
that it makes almost complete circle
when spread on table.

a pleasure to you to know the high es-
TEEN in which Chamberlain medicines
are held by the people of our our own
state, where thew must be best known.
An aunt of mine, who resides at Dexter,
Iowa, was about TO visit me a few years
since, and before leaving home wrote me,
asking if they were sold here, stating If
they were not she would bring quantity
with her, as she did not like to be with
out them" The medicines referred to
are Chamberiain's Cough Remedy, fa-
nous for its cures of colds and Group
Chamberlain's Pain Balm for rheuma-
tism, lame back, pains in the side and
chest, and Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera,
and Diaarhoea Remedy for bowel COM
plants. These medicines have been in
constant use in Iowa for almost quarter
of a century. The people have learned
that they are articles of great worth and
merit, and unequaled by any other.
They are for sale here by Siggins d Her.

Found In "a junk Shop.

Chicago, Dec. 1O.-The police raided
the junk shop of II. Rosenburg at 227
and 22o West 18th place in this city and
found what they believe to be $4,000
worth of stolen property. Rosenburg
was not in town, but his brother Sam
and Isaac Nathan, clerk, were taken
into custody. The property found con-
sists of thousands of pounds of brass
ear journals, tons of copper wire and
many miscellaneous articles. The jour-
nails came from nearly every road that
runs into Chicago, and the wire, it is
believed, belongs to the Chicago Teie.

Dress reform for Babies.

Dress reform is more popular in the
nursery than it is anywhere else, and
the young inhabitants thereof are to
be congratulated upon the change. Tho
baby of to-day is freed from the irri-
tating flannel bands pinned tight about
it's chest, the flannel skirt, the pinning
blanket and long flannel skirts, other
skirt dress and little sack that con-
stituted it's toilet a few years ago-poor
little thing. Undoubtedly half this
misery they endured was caused by
the "wadded up" condition of their
clothing. Fancy yourself swaddled
in bands and bands-ofttimes too
tightly pinned or altogether too loose
feet rolled in innumerable thick
nesses of fiannel--then the unneces.
sary strain on tiny hips of the long
slsirts-it is high time, indeed, for tha
accomplishment of such reform. Gu
rious neighbors will no longer have an
opportunity to look at the dear little
toes for the express purpose of ex-
amining the texture of the flannel.
which is right good thing, and
baby in it's short clothes will grow
sturdy and hardy with the hours.
