THE INDIANA PROGRESS, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 22, 18H4 the ad- Tlio 1'RfMiiiEss from now until November election for- cents in vance. The frrvut campaign of 1884 has at Imst begun. The Republicans have fixed upon 'hicago as tlic place, and June 3rd as the time for their Convention. The Democrats will hold their Convention at the same place July 8th. The determined, persistent and bold stand taken by a large majority of the in Omgress in favor of free trade that the campaign of this year will be largely made up of the tariff' issue.

The having failed to whip us in battle are determined to conquer us at the poHs with the aid of the free traders of the north and west. The election of a free trade President, or one controlled by that wing of the party means the closing of the willing mills and manufactories of the north, while the south exchanges her cotton for foreign iron and other articles manufactured by the pauper labor of Europe. Kvery day and hour is therefore precious time to all Republicans and tariff men of all parties. Appreciating thin fact the PIMKIKESS wishes to be on hand early for the light and makes the above liberal offer in order that present readera may IK- able to place it in the handsof many others. With a little effort every presen subscriber of the PKOOKKSS can raise a club and thus do us, himself and his eonntry a service.

The sooner we receive mimes th more numbers of the paper the subscribers will receive, as we will senc the paper to all names received up to noon of each week.

JOHN COY, of Homer City, hasjust received and placed upon his shelves a full stock of the latest rtples in dress goods, hats, ribbons, Also a full line of hosiery, and in fact everything usually kept in a first-class store. REV.

B. SHIELDS SLOAN and wife, of Indiana, paid their old friends of his former pastoral charge in 'Greenville, a visit recently, and preached in the basement of the new church, on Sunday, a very interesting sermon. THE Greeiisburg Press, of May 13, says: Two Democratic candidates dunned a voter yesterday and gave him a good time in general, and about the time they thought they had his vote sure, he informed them that he belonged to Indiana county. THE ladies of the Presbyterian Missionary Society, Greenville, held a festival in the church Tuesday evening last. Rev.

Fish culture could be made juite profitable by manv of our farmers, with but little effort. Try it, THE capture of the Haines gang by deputy Sheriff of Armstrong county was reported last week, but it appears that the news was too good to be rue, and that those graceless scamps are still at large preying upon the peo- of this and adjoining counties. THERE will be a festival in the lecture room of the U. P. Church, Thursday evening, May 29.

The room has been enlarged and very much improved. Sandwiches, coffee, cream, cake and strawberries will be served during the entire evening. Doors- open at P. M. (J WILSON KAKL, of Indiana, lias been brought out his friends as a candidate for County Auditor, and being a little late coming out his ticket." did go with the regular ones, but have since been forwarded to the different districts by the Secretary of the County Committee.

RECENTLY, in Cambria county two Hungarians had a business dicker that resulted in a bloody fight. Goo. Greczy sold his sister to'Michael Zerbin for $4o, and because the latter expressed a wish to postpone the completion of the contract for a month, the former beat him nearly to death. A CONVENTION of the W. C.

T. U. of Indiana county will be held in the Public School Hall in Blairaville, on the 27th and 28th of this month. Mrs. McLaughlin of Boston, Mrs.

Swift, President and Mrs. Watson, corresponding secretary of the State Union, and others, are cxpented. DRILL in the use of the Row fire escape, recently put up on the Normal School building, is said to be rather interesting pastime for the young ladies of that institution. We infer that the young gentlemen are expected, in case of danger, te leap from the window and abide the result. OUR Saltsourg friend writes: Mrs, Johns, wife of James Johns, an em- ploye of the Foster coal works, was run over by the through freight on Saturday morning last near Coalport, and died from the injury the same day.

The verdict of the coroner's jury has not been made public yet. THE reward of $100 offered by District Attorney Martin and officer Sti- vcnson, of Armstrong county, ought to incite some one to arrest the highwaymen Dan Mitchell, Sol. S. and George Haines. Thus far the guilty trio have eluded arrest, and seemingly ply their profession as boldly as ever.

CLKAKKIELD county has one female school director, and she was present and took part in the election of a County Superintendent on the Gth inst. We see no reason why females should not be elected directors, and we hope to see the time when this county will not ignore the sex when selecting directors. THE Kittanning Times says: The report published in many of our exchanges to the effect that Sol and George Haines and Daniel Mitchell have been captured and lodged in jail at this place is without the slighest foundation. They have not been caught, aud it does not look as though they ever will be. AT Huntingdon, Tuesday, May 13, while stealing a ride on a freight train, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, Edward A.

Hicks, of Blairsville, was run over and instantly killed. His body was strewn along the path for a considerable distance. He was on his way to the new Vanderbilt Railroad in search of employment. THE Kittanning Free Press says: Uaptain William C. Brown, of North Mahonjng township, Indiana county, 'is announced as the candidate for Congress in that county.

Captain Brown lias a good reputation, having been elected to the Legislature twice and io the Sheriff's office once, and in joth of these positions he served with ability and fidelity. A ciiANdE of venue for the trial of A. M. Bowser, Milton Weston, Archibald Blakely, W. McFarland, Henry Remaley, William Johnston, and W.

K. Miller, seven of the twenty-three arsons indicted in Westmoreland county for complicity in the Murraysville gas well riot, was granted Tuesday, last week. These seven men will tried in Allegheny county. THE annual re-union of the Pennsylvania Reserve Association will be ield this year in Philadelphia, July on the occasion of the unveiling of the monument erected to the memory of General John F. Reynolds.

The afternoon of that day will be devoted business and to the unveiling of the monument, and in the evening there will be a banquet at the Union League. THE Puux'y Spirit gives the "retort courteous" thus: The Indiana Messenger suggests that some friend of the editor of the Spirit call him around the corner and tell him he is making an ass of himself. Several of our friends told us that about a year ago, when we were endeavoring to convey the impression to some of the Spirit's subscribers over the line, that the editor of the Messenger was honest, and ought to be nominated for Register anil Recorder. ABOUT now the man who has no more political influence than a big yellow dog, pounces upon upon every candidate who comes into the neighborhood, and demands money for services that he proposes to perform on nomination day. Take our advice and stear clear of the man that holds his alleged political influence on sale to the highest bidder! He's a fraud of the lowest type, an ulcer on the body politic that needs extirpation.

ADJUTANT H. S. Hale, by order of Col. D. H.

Hastings, of the Fifth Regiment, National Guard of Pennsylvania, announces the following appointments: George F. Harris, of Bellefonte, Major and Regimental Surgeon; Andrew A. Strayer, of Roaring Springs, First Lieutenant and Assistant Surgeon; N. Frank Ehrenfeld, of Indiana, First Lieutenant and Assistant Surgeon; Jacob A. Rohrer, of Hollldays- burg, First Lieutenant and Quartermaster; Charles M.

Stock, of Bedford, Captain and Chaplain. A MOST destructive fire occurred on Monday night, 12th inst in Pine township. A large bank barn, the property of Archibald Coy, was consumed by fire, together with three valuable horses, one cow, and a lot of hogs, a new wagon, grain drill, harness and general farming implementa. The fire originated from carelessness, leaving unslacked lime in barrels, standing in the barn floor. The fire was not discovered by anyone until the entire building was destroyed.

The loss is estimated at SI ,500. No insurance. THE name of David Lawson, of Armstrong county, is favorably mentioned in connection with the Democratic-Greenback nomination for Congress in this district. So it seems the place will not go begging for a Democratic-Greenback candidate in the approaching contest. The Clarion county Nationals have instructed for Dr.

St. Clair, of Indiana. This looks as if the Greenback National infant proposed to doff its swaddling duds and out boldly for itself, deserting its hitherto pliant foster parent and brother Sansom too. Do "coming events cast their shadows before?" AJAX writes us from Covode: The cold weather has affected the corn- planting in this vicinity Office- seekers are quite numerous and are busy making calls The Marchand Literary Society has suspended The Everett Literary Society rejected lynch law last Thursday evening The Academy is prospering and progressing finely. The attendance is larger than for a number of years.

Prof. Saxman says the attendance number 61 and that more will enter soon One of Westmoreland's best detectives, Mr. A. G. S.

passed through here, enroute north, one day last week. THE Punx'y Spirit says: One day last week while Mr. C. B. Sutter, of THE M.

E. Church, at Blacklick Station, has been in the hands of con- Spalter Noll for a few weeks, and has been completely repainted and the ceiling beautifully frescoed. is now certainly one of the best church buildings in the county. On Sunday, May 25, the church will be reopened for service, and Rev. J.

F. Jore, presiding elder, and Rev. A. C. Johnston will be present.

BEFORE Judge Johnston left the jench in the Westmoreland County Court he thanked Judge Hunter, the members of the bar, and the people of the county for their kindness to him during his brief visit. In behalf of the members of the bar General Harry White returned thanks to Judge Johnston for his kind treatment of the lawyers. Judge Hunter requested all whoseconed the remarks of Mr. White should rise to their feet, and every member present arose. This ends the Murrysville cases in the Westmoreland Courts for awhile.

THE total number of houses destroyed in Brisbin by the recent disastrous ire, including dwellings, churches and schools, is 211; total number of louses which were owned individual- and occupied by the owners, 104; occupied by renters, 116; total number of families affected, 220; total amount of population affected, 1,148. About 170 the houses were insured, though net ully. The burned out citizens are loused among the people of the neigh loring towns, one man having under lis roof seven families. The average oss per house, including household effects, is about $800. Three churches, hree school houses and half the town were destroyed.

North Mahoning township, was driving along the road near Perry church, in this county, he was stopped by a stranger who asked if he could ride. The man's actions convinced Mr. Sutter that there was "something in the wind," but as Gaskill Gourley lived but a short distance off, he took the fellow in and drove up the hill. When he arrived at Mr. Gourley's he stopped, presumably having business with that gentleman.

The man jumped out of the vehicle and walked rapidly away. Mr. Sutter, who was out buying cattle, aud had a snug sum of money with him, afterwards learned that his suspicious companion was the outlaw Mitchell. It is quite probable that Mitchell's confederates were in the neighborhood and would have put in appearance at the right time and place. JOHN writes us from Greenville: The fine showers we have had during the past few weeks, has done much for the growing crops and nature is putting on an appearance at present of unsurpassable magnificence and splendor Corn planting is going on lively just at present, and house cleaning has commenced, which to a greater or less degree is the lot of every tidy lady at present Business is very steady in our town at present, with an inclination to lazinesss The heart of the candidate beateth wildly at G.

Frank Fowler, who lias been laid off from labor for awhile, with a sprained leg, is able to be around again. THE following, from the Kittanning Times, sets forth the distinction between the Jewish "Sabbath" and the Christian or Gentile There is a contest between the Jews and Gentiles in Allegheny City. The Gentiles complain that the Jews, although they close their stores on the Sabbath day, yet keep them open on Sunday, and thereby they, the Gen- tiles.lose considerable tradethat would otherwise drift to them on Mon- dav. The Gentiles are going to invoke the aid of the law of the State. The Pittsburg Leader suggests the making of a test case and carrying it to the U.

S. Supreme Court. We don't go much on matters of this kind. We would like of course to see a general observance of "Sunday," let those observe the "Sabbath" who may. But if a Jew will keep his store open on his Sabbath and our Sunday both, then we would feel like protesting.

But it seems they are consistent in ny City, and close their stores on the Sabbath days, and open them on Sundays. Grand Concert. Miss Jean Wallace, assisted by Mr. Beveridge Webster, piano soloist, and Mr. L.

Church, at Marchand, Thursday, May 8, and was attended by a goodly number of people of this village and vicinity, besides a number from Punxsutawney, Clayville and other places. The president being absent and the vice president having not yet arrived, Thomas North was elected president pro tern. The secretary took his place and the meeting was conducted according to the program as arranged by committee. Devotional exercises being performed by Rev.

Crosier, after which an address of welcome was delivered by Rev. Houpt, and responded to by the president. Miscellaneous business was then transacted. The minutes, of the last meeting read and approved. On motion the next meeting shall be held in August, at Richmond, Indiana county, in the U.

P. Church. Committee appointed to report to the several papers. 1st topic was next in order, but was held over for afternoon session on account of the late hour. Afternoon topic: Does the Bible teach total abstinence, was opened by Robert Mclsaac, and responded by Mr.

Steffey. Mr. Mclsaac quoted several passages of Scripture, which, without a doubt, prove that the Bible teaches total abstinence. The 2d topic: Does State prohibition prohibit? was opened by Rev. Houpt.

The speaker cited very reliable testimony from Gov. Dingle and others on prohibition, in Maine, besides other testimonials which prove that State prohibition prohibits it. Rev. Keebler also made remarks showing that State prohibition is a great success where it has a fair trial. 3d topic: Is the license law of Pennsylvania in accordance with the principles of divine, natural or common law? was very ably discussed by A.

J. Truitt. The speaker said that license to sell liquor made men violators of the law. Abstinence would bring about an age in which but little law would be needed. Very plain and pertinent remarks were made by Mr.

Perry on the subject. Mr. Aaron Work made a very enthusiastic and strong speech against license and the drinking customs. The subject, The effect of the liquor traffic on those who deal in it, was opened and well represented by Rev. Crosin.

He gave several instances in which the dealing with liquor had a very destroying effect. On the whole the topics were well discussed and the meeting proved to be interesting to all present and-no doubt will have a good effect. In Memoriam. At a regular meeting of Indiana LodgeNo. 313 F.

A. held in their hall in the borough of Indiana, May 13, 1884, the following preamble and resolutions were adopted. Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God to remove from our midst our dearly beloved Brother Col. Dan. S.

Porter, therefore be it Resolved, That while we humbly submit to the decrees of Providence in removing by death our beloved Brother, yet, when we think that he has gone to return no more, forever, we feel a sorrow that language fails to express. Resolved, That in the death of Brother Porter our fraternity lost one of its most zealous members, and his grief stricken family an affectionate husband and parent. That his life was in all departments a complete success, although the shades of night fell unexpectedly at noontime, suddenly changing the bright sunshine of worldly hope, happiness, and prosperity, to the gloom of death. Resolved, That as a Mason he was most faithful, as a soldier no name in the long list of the "boys in blue" stands out encircled with a bright halo of glory, in his profession and as a citizen he was honorable and useful, and as a husband, father, and friend he was as true as steel. Resolved, That as a mark or respect for the deceased, our Lodge room be draped in mourning for the space of thirty days.

Resolved, That we tender to the bereaved family of our deceased Brother our sincere sympathy in their deep affliction. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the widow and mother of Brother Porter, and that they lie spread upon the minutes of the Lodge and published in the county papers. M. C.

There are dangerous counterfeits in circulation purporting to be "Walnut Leaf Hair Bestorer."

The "Be- storer" is as harmless as water, while it possesses all the properties necessary to restore life, vigor, growth and color to the hair. Purchase only from responsible parties.
