Don't Give up tho Ship.

The Main Shoe Factory Company
OF Catawissa with whom the citizens
Of this place have been negotiating
to locate at this place, have decided
not to move as the people of Cata-
wissa have raised some money and
they have decided to remain. 1t must
be said, however, that the Main Shoe
Factory had not agreed toany speci-
tic contract to come here and hence
they were not breaking any contract
in deciding to remain. The refusal
of this company to locate here is no
reason for giving up the idea of
getting up some industry for our
own. a stock company can be
raised here, two or three skilled men
brought in and an industry start,d d
that will employ from 80 to 100
hands and it should be done.

A Good Counterfeit.

A remarkably good counterfeit of
the half dollar Of 1898 is being ex-
tensively circulated. The coin was
slightly lighter than the genuine,
but it rings clear and pure, Itcan't
be detected, however, from the fact
that in the figures of the date the
open work part ot the figures which
are depressed in the genuine are
elevated in the spurious coin, owing
to improper cutting of the die.
