Gently sold by Payne, Cochran & Co,

Opened to the Public.

The new bar-room of the Commercial
Hotel was opened to the public last
Saturday evening, and during the time
until the closing hour, the room was
crowded, and two bar-tenders We're
kept very busy waiting upon patrons.
During the evening the Muncy Cornet
Band furnished the music.
Mine host of the Commercial, N. P.

finest equipped bar rooms in this part
of the state. The room is large, and is
furnished with handsome counter
with mahogany top of the latest de-
sign, three large mirrors, the whole
costing $500. The mantle is decorated
with fine glassware and other orna-
meuts. Electric lights, three handsome
ones at the top Of the mirrors, add to
the brilliancy of the room.
Adjoining and connecting with the
bar-room are other rooms for the use
Of guests and patrons. These are
furnished in up-to-date style. All the
conveniences necessary are an impor-
tant feature ofthe new barroom
The Commercial under Mr.. Warmers
management has been brought up to
the high standard of hotels. The i'm
provements that have been made in
this house are substantial and elegant,
equal in many respects to hotels of the
large cities. The increase in patronage
by the travelling public attests Mr..
Warmers superior ability as landlord.
His tables are of the best, and the
general accommodations are hard to
beat The Commercial and it's genial
host are deserving of success Muncy

rIurder at Cross Fork.

Last Monday morning, week, Jack
O'Hara was found murdered at Cross
Fork. A telegram to Coudersport
Enterprise of that date, says:
"Jack O'Hara was found murdered
near the railroad track about one
o'clock this morning by some young
people who were returning from q
party. There was but one cut on his
body, which was behind the left ear
and bore the appearance of having
been made by a kick from a person
wearing heavy shoe. At11 O'clock
OHara and a companion, a stranger
here, were seen together in an intoXi-
Gated condition. About one o'clock
Harry Duncan, who resides near the
spot where O'Hara's lifeless body was
found, saw two men scuffiing and later
saw one of the men kick his prostrated
companion and then walk away along
the railroad track. Mr.. Duncan quickly
dressed and went to the mans side,
where others had collected, and found
that he was dead. The murdered man
was woodsman about thirty years of
age and is survived by his widow and
two children. No traces of the MUIR
derer has been found, and it is doubt
full if he could be identified by anyone
here"
Since the above was put in type
Dennis Flynn, of Emporium, and D.
Fl. Gagar, of Liberty, have been ar
rested charged with committing the
crime. Flynn claims he can prove he
was not there at the time the deed was
committed, and from evidence and re.
ports we have it is very evident Gagar
is the guilty chap.

Riding a Free Horse.

1t is astonishing how the public looks
upon the newspapers as free horse to
be ridden to death. People will pay
money for band, for lights, janitor, to
go to q job printing Office and buy
thousands of dodgers, pay boys to
deliver them, pay performers in the
entertainment, if they are profession
ais, or pay same manager to get up the
affair and give him a large percentage
of the receipts, pay all their bils-in
fact, pay for everything except that
which is most valuable to them to wit,
newspaper advertising. And if the
newspaper is unwilling to devote more
notice to such entertainment than
liberal news notices it comes in for
much abuse, And yet why should not
the newspaper charge for its advertis-
ing space just as the owner of the hall
charges for its rent, billboard man
charges for the use of his billboards,
the photographers charge for furnishing
posters, the job printing Office charges
for the dodgers, and the outside parties
charge for their services?
The newspaper has only two sources
of revenue. One is subscription, the
other advertising. The subscriptions to
newspapers are 80 cheap that they
little more than pay the cost of the
white paperZKnoxville Sentinel.

Big Land Deal.

V. A. Brooks, with large force of
men, are busy estimating the timber
owned by Penna. Joint Land and
Lumber Company, located at head of
Wykoff Run, this county, and Med1x
Run, Elk county. 1t is reported that
Messrs. Goodyear are closing the deal
for the purchase of these land. A year
ago they bought the coal mining and
coke plant of the Clearfield Coal COM
pany at Tyler, Clearfeld county, and
will take full control on the 18th inst.
This plant includes 5000 acres of coal
deposits, six openings and 100 coke
ovens in operation and mining town.
The Goodyears also have an option
until May 1 on the lumber plant of the
same interests at Medix Run, Elk
county. This consists of sawmlll,
with an output of ten millions OF feet
a wear, and town at the mouth of the
stream, a railroad of standard guage
and weight from the mill ten miles
south into immense tracts of timber
about the head of the creek. The P.J.
L. & L. Co. have just estimated this
timber at hree hundred and fifty mil
lions of fee. and the Goodyears are
now engaged in their estimate.
The latter firm are also planning to
get from the terminus of the Buffalo
and Susquehanna at Sinnemahoning
into this timber by rail. A line will be
surveyed up Wykof Run, which emp
ties into the Sinnemahoning river at
Wyside, this county. From the head
of this stream extends plot timbered
and underlaid with minerals at the
head of Medix Run. A railroad on this
route will permit Of the timber going
to the mill at Wyside or even to Potter
county, and might mean the abandon
ment or removal of the big mill at
Medix Run, and once at the head of
Medix, the railroad would doubtless
keep on westward to the Goodyear
plant at Tyler and the output of the
latter would no longer, as now,go over
the Low Grade and P. & E. divisions of
the Pennsylvania railroad.

men to be on fire, who sounded an

the flames before help arrived. The
amount of damage was small, but
had the fire a few minutes more start
