There will be exhibited at the Williamsport Centennial a hand press which is 153 years old, being one of the first presses built in this country and the oldest one now in existence, which was secured by Grit Publishing Company, for the antiquarian display. The press was built bv Thomas Draper in Boston in 1742 and was used for many years by the early printers in the eastern and middle states. It was exhibited at the Centennial in 1876, and was also one of the greatest attractions in Machinery hall at the World's Fair. A curious feature of the old press is the two cabbage like pads accompanying it, which once served to ink the type in place of rollers used for that purpose.

The machine was barrowed by Grit trora the Printing Press aud Manufacturing Company, of New York, who arc its present owners. Ladies, hive you seen the new dress goods at T. J. Keeler's. He can astonish vou, both in quality and price.

Young Cochran stood the journey well aud last night lie was reported in good condition. bullet which entered his mouth, passing through the tongue, is still deeply imbedded in the muscles of the neck back of the Gazette atul bulletin. The appointment of J.

llay Brown of Lancaster, who is ex-Attorney General II disci's law partner, to lie a judge of the Court, has Biirpriscd the whole stale. Mr. Brown's name hail not lieen mentioned, and the fact of bis appointment goes to show that Governor Hastings is acting independent in his selections. It is reported that exit overnor Beaver has also been offered a place on the bench and that there ia a prospect of his acceptance of the honor. The ex- Governor would surely make brilliant judge.

There was a lima when the Prohibition party was a factor in the politics of o'ii I held tho balance of power two en tho Republican and Democratic parties, and at one time it seemed as if it would place tho former party in the minority, jits followers were looked upon as mistaken but sincere, but by trying 1 'to bolster up the prohibition cause by indorsing dishonest money they show how easy is the step between fanaticism and crankisui."

The of business has increased over that of 1894, it is only 80 per cent, of that of three years ago. Business failures in the last few weeks have been over COO, against less than 500 in the corresponding period of 1897, add this, too, in spite of the fact that the weaker firms went under long ago Export-- creased, although ihe matkets of world are open to us.
