MISCELLANEOUS. 
Monday, March 27, 1880. 
Prospectors and settlers are already overrunning 
tue Ute reservation In Colorado ahead of the for¬ 
mal placing of the territory In the market, and 
Secretary Schurz sends out word that no claims 
made under these circumstances will be respected 
by the Interior Department. The President Is ex¬ 
pected to Issue a proclamation on the subject, It 
the encroachments continue. Reports already 
come from the region In question of the massacre 
of trespassing miners by the Indians. Trouble Is 
also anticipated up In Montana, because of a trea¬ 
ty just made between the Crows and Sioux. 
Vanderbilt’s restoration of 10 per cent, to the 
salaries of the employes on thq “ family roads,” 
adds $308,000 to the annual expenses of those 
lines. The Pennsylvania company Is about to 
restore prices to their old standard. 
The country received in the Ural two months or 
18SO three times as many Immigrants as the first 
two months In lS7u. Nearly twice as much Iron 
Is being made now as In isra. Railroad building 
Is going on from Ualf to twice as fast as last year. 
Week by week the Imports are lrorn so to -10 per 
cent greater than Iasi. year. The expons are lit¬ 
tle, If any larger.... A bill for the reduction of fares 
on the New York elevated railroads to live cents 
at all hours, passed the Assembly but was killed 
In the Senate, ai Albany. ...About 4000 New York 
piano makers have been lucked out because 
Stein way £ Sons’ loo striking employes refuse to 
accept the terms offered them... 
An awful boiler explosion took place in a llax 
mill belonging to Leurnan, Hosenllial &, Co , ai 
Frankiort, ind., on the morning of the lull Inst 
Ten men who happeued to be assembled lu the 
engine-room were instantly killed and the build¬ 
ing completely demolished, one body was thrown 
160 feet. Cause: old and impel feet boiler. . • 
Dennis Keai nej s dehance or la w and decency has 
come to a crisis, and It is to be hoped that It Is tue 
beginning of the end. lie was arrested while eat- 
ing his breaklasi a lew days ago, on two distinct 
charges, viz,: xor using loul language, widen is a 
violation of a city ordinance, and lor threatening 
to kill a person, both of wm$h offences were made 
in a speech on the sand lots me eveolug before- 
The offender was brought beiore a judge the fol¬ 
lowing day and sentenced to six months'imprison¬ 
ment in the House of correction and a fine of 
*. ojo. The general reeling among those who 
n . ve noticed the doings of this reckless blasphemer 
is that ne has recoiveu justice and nothing more. 
The fact that he has committed the same offence 
a thousand times without receiving pimlsument 
does not argue that he should be allowed to con¬ 
tinue his outrages unmolested.

AGRICULTURAL MEWS, 
Philadelphia turns out dally irom 8, dim to iu,oou

tural shows held in Illinois during 1879 , me en¬

have already staked placer claims and taken up 
ranches on the Ute reservation, and that the next 
two weeks will see me reveivatloh swarming

oleomargarine swindlers are being made here, 
tu Pniianeiplua and in several otner cities, but

crop la reported to be about 40 per cent, smaller 
than last year ... Oregon has offered $100 for the 
best acre of sugar beets and $60 for the second

cess of making sugar from sorghum, corn-stalks, 
etc.Oswego farmers have subscribed $75 ,000 
towards a beet-sugar factory and want $25,000 
more. There's a movement to petition the N. Y. 
Legislature for a bounty on sugar beets. 
There’s a brisk American demand for Canadian 
horses. Lately 131 were shipped from Toronto to 
Massachusetts and New Y'ork In a single week, 
costing $9,819, or an average of $75 each.

Advice to Consumptives. 
No man, however uncleanly, would drink mud¬ 
dy, dirty warer, A party who occupies a room for 
hours, breathing the same air, might be compared 
to a party of bathers drinking tne water In which 
they bathe. The patient must keep the window or 
Ills bedroom open. Night air Is fresh air without 
daylight. T 11 close, crowded rooms, the patient 
suffering from lung complaints breathes consump¬ 
tively. By taking these precautions and using Dr. 
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and Pleasant 
Purgative Pellets, fully one-hatf of the eases of 
lung complaints would be cured In six months. 
For cougU and Irritation of the lungs do not always 
Indicate the presence or consumption, although they 
may result In that disease and If consumption has 
already become deeply seated In the system this 
Is the most efficient course of treatment that can 
be pursued, outstde of any institution that pro¬ 
vides special facilities for the treatment of this 
disease. Dr. Pierce’s celebrated Invalids Hotel Is 
such an institution. Send stamp for descriptive 
pamphlet containing also a complete treatise on 
consumption, explaining Its causes, nature, and 
the best methods of treating It, together with 
valuable hints concerning diet, clothing, exercise, 
etc., for consumptives. Addre33 World’s Dis¬ 
pensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y. 
A Joke on the Publishers.— A Boston publisher 
recently issued Thos. Dughes’ (author of “ Tom 
Brown's School Days,” etc.) “ Manliness of Christ," 
In a neat volume, for $l, and a New Y'ork pub¬ 
lisher coating out with a competing edition, the 
price was reduced to 25 cents. To make the rivalry 
interesting, a third publisher, The American 
Book Exchange, New Y'ork, whose “ Literary 
Revolution ” has been scattering consternation 
among publishers and cheering the hearts of im¬ 
pecunious lovers of good books, brings out a neat 
acme edition for three cents, or entirely without 
cost to buyers of the April number of their Library 
Magazine. 
We call special attention to the advertisement 
on page 210 of important Clydesdale and also of 
Hambletonlan horses, lor sale by Powell Bro’s 
Springboro, Crawford Co., Pa. The horses are of 
the best breed and the firm in every way trust¬ 
worthy.

A Favorable Notoriety.— The good repu¬ 
tation of -‘JJi own’s Bronc/iial Troches" lor the relief 
of Coughs, Colds and Throat Diseases has given 
them a favorable notoriety. 
-- 
Burnett’* Cocoaine has been soldlnevery 
civilized country, and the public have rendered 
the verdict that it is the cheapest and best Dan 
Dressing in the world. 
For an Irritated Throat, Cough or Cold, 
“ Brown’s Bronchial Troches ’’ are offered with the 
fullest eonffdence In their efficacy. They maintain 
the good reputation they have Justly acquired.
