WILLIAM BARRY, who has been called the Irish Crane ever since he parted with his old time partner Fay, will be at the New Grand Opera House, Pittsburg, with his play "The Rising Generation," next week. The play abounds in funny situations, bright, witty dialogues, clever specialties and is staged in an admirable manner. A LARGE Wall street New York Bank last week had circulars printed, which were sent to correspondents outside of the city, announcing that, in view of the great accumulation of funds at that center, and the continued law rates of interest obtainable, it had decided to hereafter allow interest on new deposits by banks at the rate of 1 per cent, per annum only. BAILS are being laid by the Clearfield Quarrying Co.

on a short railroad that will open up what is expected to be the largest quarry in the State. The road is four miles long and connects with the Buffalo, Eochester and Pittsburg road at Clearfield. The company has one contract for 1,000,000 yards of stone, to be furnished principally for a bridge over the Delaware river. FOB some time the Aldine lias been made headquarters for a number of Pittsburg Philadelphia railroad engineers among whom was chief engineer Patterson. The field men are said to be ing the final locations now.

The new line will leave the B. a short distance below town and by means of an exceedingly long trestle gain the western side of the river back of Bobert Mahaffey's residence, thence up the river a river a short distance where it will again cross the river to gain the eastern bank, at the same lime clearing the tracks of the P. N. and P.E.E, When at a point near Dowlers's station on the Pennsylvania it again crosses the river and runs up Cash creek to Glen Campbell, one of the richest coal sections in the State, and other points west until it makes its desired connections at Pittsburg. This is not the only road looked for here.

By Lock Haven papers we note the much talked of "Air Line" surveyors have reached that point and are at present making in this direction on the river. It also is expected to take the same direction ihe Philadelphia Pittsburg road Is taking, at least as far as the headwaters of Ctash Comet. Charles MoClaran Tails From a Corridor in the Jail, and His Injuries Cause Death. Saturday evening about 8 o'clock, Officer John Smith arrested Charles McClarran for disorderly conduct and abusing people on the streets. McClarran at first resisted Smith, but when assistance arrived in the person of Wm.

T. Davis, he went to jail and was locked up by Sheriff Mack. The prisoner requested that the Sheriff would not lock him up in a cell as his father would soon get Mm out. To this request the Sheriff assented, as his father was present, and left the jail. In about half an hour afterwards a son of Warden Eobert Miller came up to the Court House and asked him to come down to the jail, that Charley McClarran had fallen and was dangerously hurt.

Sheriff Mack found McClarran lying on his back unconscious with the blood coming out of his nose and mouth. Dr. Hosack arrived about the same time and shortly after Drs. Ehrenfeld and Davis, and the injured man was stripped and placed in a cot in the women's department of the jail. An examination showed that McClarran was dangerously injured, but on account of his intoxicated condition it was thought best to keep him as quiet as possible until the extent of his injuries could be developed.

The other prisoners informed the Sheriff that McClarran came up stairs on the corridor of the upper tier of cells and was yelling and dancing along the corridor, when in some manner he lost his baknce and fell over the railing to the stone floor below. McClarran never regained consciousness, but continued in a state of coma until his death, which occurred Monday morning at 4 o'clock a.m. Coroner Miller summoned a jury and an investigation into the cause of his death was commenced. The jury is as follows: Henry Hall, M. B.

Kline, Thos. Lowman, J. N. Langham, W.H. Clawson and G.

W. Earl. The jury met Monday morning, and after viewing the body adjourned until Monday evening, when the following witnesses were examined: Policeman John Smith, Sheriff Mack, Drs. Ehrenfeld, Davis and Hosack, John McClarran and W. T.

Davis. After hearing the witnesses the jury adjourned until Tuesday morning, when the testimony of John Bollinger, Charles Cunningham and Isaac Billings, who was with deceased during the afternoon and evening, and Alex. Fresh and George Silvers, two prisoners, who witnessed the accident was heard. The jury then adjourned until Thursday when other witnesses will be examined. A postmortem was held by Drs.Ehren- feld, Hosack and Davis, and McClarran's injuries were described as follows: A fracture from the union of the anterior sup.

portion of the left temporal and frontal bones, following around the forehead about the region of the superciliary ridge, ending at the union and frontal and temporal bones of the right side. A second fracture branched off from the beginning of the one just described and run across the skull through the orbital plate of the frontal bone. The lungs were also much congested. No external depression of the skull was found, but much extravasation of blood around the membranes of the skull and brain, which was also much congested. A striking peculiarity of the skull was its thinness, not being more than 1-20 of an inch thick in places.

The body of the deceased was taken to his late home in West Indiana, and interred on Tuesday afternoon after services in St. Bernard's Catholic Church, in the Catholic Cemetery. He was 22 years and 1 month old, was married last year, and was the father of a child about two week old. OBITUARY. Mrs.

Normal, 44; TOTT.P., 0. Last Saturday the foot ball team of Western University of Pennsylvania engaged the Normal eleven in the gridiron field. The Normal boys expected a hard battle and were prepared for one, but the game was an easy one. The game, however, deprived the team of William Reed, its star half-back for the rest of the season on account of a badly injured ankle. As the team plays Washington and Jefferson on next Saturday this is a serious loss and an outside player will probably be secured to fill the vacancy.

The game was a fine exhibition of scientific football on the part of the home team and was certainly the best played game of the season. The backs put up a game remarkable for its fine interference and exhibition of intelligent running behind interference. Campbell, Wright, Reid, Brallier and Kinports, for Normal, and Neal and Blessing for W.U.P., all played good games. The game was called at 1:50 and Campbell kicked to W.U.P's. 20 yard line.

McCaffrey caught and made 20 yards before he was downed by a fine tackle by Wright. W.U.P. fails to gain and kicks. Campbell catches and makes 15 yards. The ball is then pushed quickly down the field by short gains and a touch down is made in 9 minutes.

Campbell kicks goal W.TJ.P. kicks to 15 yard line and Eeid catching maks 10 yards. The ball is then again pushed over the line by short but steady gains, Normal never losing the ball. Campbell misses goal. Time, 14 minutes.

W.U.P. kicks off, Brallier catching and making a fine run of 35 yards, Kinports then makes a nice run for 15 yards and again the ball is pushed over by short sharp gains averaging about 6 yards each. Campbell kicks goal. Time, 20 minutes. W.U.P.

kicks to 20 yard line, Kinports catching and gaining 15 yards. Campbell, Wri ght and Eeid do yoeman's work this time, making single gains of 11, 8 and 15 yards respectively. Other short gains take the ball over the line, Campbell kicking goal. Time is called and Normal has scored 22 points in the first half. A miniature reception is held by the members of the team on the field, everybody wishing to pat them on the back.

The second half was a repetition of the first with the exception that Normal lost the ball once on a fumble, but quickly regained it by blocking W.U.P's. kick. Eeid is hurt early in this half and retires, Noble taking his place. The most notable gains in this half are made by Campbell, who in a total of seven tines with the ball gains 75 yards. Kinports and Noble also made good gains, the latter carrying the ball 25 yards for a touchdown.

Final score 44 to 0. The team lined up as follows: BRIEF MENTION. A. W. Wilson, was here Monday.

WHEN Senator McKnight of Jefferson undertook to help defeat Judge White last spring there was a great wail among White's followers about outside interference, and all that Senator McKnight did was to publish a statement of some things concerning Judge White's record, which were practically undisputed. Now it is Senator Mitchell of Jefferson county, who is taking a hand in Indiana county politics, by threatening to injure the business of certain people who are not supporting Judge White.

There is no wail among the followers of Judge White now about outside interference. TAXPAYER! This is the Kind of Economy Yon Want. When Judge Blair went on the Bench our county was in debt $138,760.00 as shown by the Auditor's statement, Book 200. When Judge Blair left the Bench the county surplus was $27,431. Here are the figures for each year, except 1879.

The Auditor's statement does not show the debt for that year: 1876 county debt $138,750 OO 1876 00 1877 1878 1880 1881 1882 1883 county surplus 1884 1885 80,746 14 57,376 66 95 6,114 49 3,026 48 3,537 1O 21,906 84 27,431 10 Off to Johnstown. On next Monday morning Wellington B. Kline and family will take their departure for Johnstown, where they will make their future home. Mr. Kline has been a resident of this place since 1862, thirty-two years.

He was first employed as a clerk in the old warehouse, afterwards when the firm dissolved he went with Mr. Marshall and for two years was assistant cashier in the Deposit Bank, in 1873 the firm of Marshall Kline was created, which has ever since, until the death of Mr. Marshall last May, been one of the most progressive and prosperous business houses in this place. He has by his kind and genial disposition and rigid honesty and integrity endeared himself to many friends who will part with him and his family with sincere regret. He has been a successful in business through habits of economy and industry, and strict attention to his own business.

The new firm in Johnstown will consist of Wellington B. Kline and his son George K. Kline, and the firm name will be W. B. Kline Son.

We predict that they will at once take a place among the leading firms of that enterprising city, and hope they may enjoy the greatest success. We recommend Mr. Kline especially to the BEWARE! The custom has been in this county, to start injurious reports at the last, a day or two before the election. As Judge White is the party most interested this time, we may look for "History to Repeat Itself," as Brother Moorhead of the Progress would remark. It wilt be remembered that just before the primary election last spring, Judge White started the report that one of his opponents, Samuel' Cunningham, had received aid from the Whiskey League of Pittsburg.

Of course the story was without foundation, and did Mr. Cunningham no injury where he was best known, but with people not acquainted with him, it had some effect. As there was no foundation for the storj', Judge White was compelled to retract it. As this sort of thing is Judge White's stock in trade, we may look for a repetition of it. New Town Hall at West Lebanon.

The enterprising citizens have formed a company and subscribed sufficient money to construct a town hall. The building is two stories in height. The lower story will be devoted to business purposes and the upper story will be used as a town hall and a place for festivals, entertainments, etc. The building is about 25x45 feet and will be an ornament to the town, as well as a great convenience.

COMMUNICATED. From Blaokliok. Editor Democrat: The Hastings-McKinley side show under the management of White, Scott, Fisher, et exhibited at Yankee Hill school house, in Blacklick on last Saturday evening. The audience was composed of Democrats, Republicans, Populists and school boys, numbering about fifty. Mr.

Al. Ferguson, of Blairsville, was called to the chair and introduced Mr. Fisher to the expectant crowd. Mr. Fisher, alter a profuse apology for his lack of oratorical ability, mounted the pedestal of Republican statesmanship and declared that there were no State issues for discussion in the campaign, the paramount questions confronting us were tariff and finance.

He showed the old soldier how he had been abused by President Cleveland in the appointment of Hoke Smith. Mr. Smith will doubtless be glad to know, however, that the speaker did not blame him for accepting Mr. Cleveland's appointment. Mr.

F. then attempted to show how the g.o.p., through the heroic efforts of the great and only original McKinley had saved the industries of our country from the "delerium trernens" and the "dem- nition bow-wows." As an example of wise and unselfish legislation by Republican statesmen, he cited the fact that the McKinley act put raw cocoa on the free list and imposed a duty on the manufactured article. This he considered the ne plus ultra of wise legislation, but here stopped short, apparently afraid to handle any other raw material lest they should prove too hot. Mr. Fisher then launched into the matter of finance.

He tried to convince the farmers that they needed more money, and said that the Republican party was pledged to give them per capita of money that would go at par in the markets of the world. Much to the regret of the audience, the speaker did not inform them where the Republican party proposed to find the gold with which to make secure this amount, but he explained the fact that a silver dollar was necessarily larger than a gold dollar. After Mr. Fisher Mr. Jno.

A. Scott was called upon to address the meeting. He spoke very briefly on the tariff and financial issues, told a few Sunday school stories, warned the people against that terrible foe to free institutions, Mr. W. L.

Wilson. When he finished speaking re-entered the room. He was of course invited to address the meeting. He declined to advance to the rostrum, but rose in his seat and said that he did not come to the meeting for the purpose of making a speech, but rather to have a social chat with his Blacklick friends, who held a warm place in his affections. He wished to be regarded as a common man among common pleople, and went on in this strain for quite a while.

Of course he denied the truth of the published accounts of his profligacy in office. His speech closed the meeting. After the meeting the Judge circulated among the audience in a general hand shaking with all whom he could catch. Bets of ten to one were offered, without takers, that in case of Judge White's reelection, Blacklick would not be favored with another social visit during the next decade. A.B.C.
