BIAIB SHIELDS, a six year old son of Balph Shields, of Piumville, was lost from Time Extended, Seme three months ago the undersigned, publishers of newspapers in Indiana, published a card to the effect that after July 1, 1885, all subscriptions must be paid in advance, and that all who failed to comply with the terms would have their names dropped from the list, the charged up and collected. The necessity for this new departure on onr part was almost imperative; but, perhaps, the time was not propitious.

The Spring aeaaon came in late, and when it did open up our farmers were kept busy; times are hard and money scarce; onr canvasser has been unable to visit all parts of the county; probably the time in our notice was a little for so radical a change in our mode of doing business, and we have received a great many letters asking for an extension. These, and other considerations, have induced ni to examine the subject carefully, and at a meeting held this morning (July 1), we concluded to extend the time until OCTOBER 1st, 1885, whea the provisions of our former notice will positively go into effect, and under no circumstance will there be any deviation from this announcement. We trust those who have not yet settled their accounts will do so before the time specified. To those who have settled with us prior to this date we return our sincere thakes for tkeir promptness aod kind words of commendation for our efforts to put the newspaper business on a sound basis in this county, bans wKlch we think of advantage to both subscriber and publisher.

THE society of ficonemites, on the banks of the Ohio, near Pittsburgh, which once numbered thirteen hundred members, has dwindled to thirty. The survivors are all aged, none of them will probably be alive ten years hence. The property of the Society is estimated at folly $1,000,000 for each member and what will be the final disposi- ti on of it is known only to a small circle. LAST week Dr. St.

Clair received a telegram to go to a point in Clearfield connty to perform a difficult surgical operation. He responded and on bin arrival home found another telegram calling him to another portion of the same county to perform an operation. He attended to this call with his usual promptness and in the fonr days travel- led, by buggy, a distance of one hundred and eighty miles. For a man over 69 years of age this indicates considerable nerve. CHBISTIAN Union meetings are held at the Lutheran Church in Indiana, erery Sabbath afternoon at 3 o'clock.

ABOUT 1 o'clock a. ra, on the morning of the 5th the large stable of Frank Detwiler two miles east of town, was discovered to be on fire. Mr. Detwiler was absent from home, and his wife and children did what they could to save the property stored in the barn, but with little success, as the flames made rapid headway, and the building was nearly consumed when the fire was discovered.

One horse, and a great variety of farming implements, harness, were burned. The loss was about $2000, no insurance. The fire was the work of an incendiary. WE have a monumental liar in our midst who must be a direct descendent of Anai- nias. Recently he has been writing to Philadelphia and Pittsburgh papers giving an account of a terrible state of anai-chy supposed to prevail here because of the appearance of a certain Don.

Milton sent to the Penitentiary from this county some years ago. The correspondent says our town is in a state of terrible dread on account of certain threats made by Milton to the effect that he would barn the town, Ac. The whole story is false, from beginning to end.and the daily papers have been taken in by a gigantic liar. THE News, in a column article, attempts to lay the blame of the recent jail delivery upon the County Commissioners. The attempt is a signal failure and the writer of the article has only made an ass of himself.

He quotes the resolution passed by the Board of Commissioners declining to give the News any of the public printing, and thus gives himself dead away. Of course, if the News was thrown a little pap in the shape of some county printing, these com- nents would never have appeared. The es- at the saw mill of W.

Dr.Mancher, of Carrolltown, was called and dressed the wound and the man may poesbly recover. LAST week, one J. F. Woodburn, who posts himself as a champion fast skater, appeared in this place and won a race at the Pavilion rink. He then made the banter that he could ontskate "anything with hair on, for money." The Manager of the Chnrch street rink took bin in hand and put up money for a race to be run on the evening of July 4.

All arrangements were made, dodgers printed ai.d distributed, c. and on the evening of the contemplated race a dispatch was received from Woodburn, dated Punxsutawney, stating that he could not nil his engagement. It appears that after entering into the contract and having me go to all the trouble and expense for the contest he deliberately went to PunxsntawBey, thus entailing much loss to the rink and disappointing our people. I deem this explanation due our people and that other nnk Managers may look for his tricks, as be has shown himself to be jnreliable and untrustworthy. W.

WILSON, Manager. "Boss STEILE questions the right of Jus tices to charge 15 cents for each scalp reported to them, but wants all brought to him, ae as to deprive the Justices of the 3 nickels. The man who begrudges a mini official a nickel is not fit to be Commissioner. But possibly he may wish to use this as an oflset to the gold pen appropriation." The above is from the News of last week- The true inwardness of this case is just this- A Justice of the Peace, and a Greenbacker at that, presented eight probates for that number of fox scalps. The probates were for the same person and made at one time and the Justice had no right to charge 15 cents on each case.

The charges were all in one bill and of course but one oath was administered and the Commissioners were right in refusing to pay eight probates where but one was necessary. When people attempt to get money from the connty, not duly earned, they will find the Commission- at home and prepared to block the game. the Solders oflMunuice Policies, During the last few years the insurance businem has to some extent, been transacted on the credit system, allowing a certain time credit in which to pay for policies. This WM conditionally consented to by the eora- pinies and all policies to be promptly lid fo when due. This method has, however, been so'unaatisfactory as to require its, modification somewhat in the future, in order to avoid having out so many policies unpaid And in accordance with positive regn- litions, and instructions from the different it is now required that the premiums be promptly paid on all policies where a time credit was give'n, and that are now due.

Losses throughout the country and in this county have been enormously heavy, requiring in the aggregate nearly all the premiums received to pay fire claims along as they occurred; and as all policy holders expect and insist upon undelayed payment of-their louses, it is not only absolutely ne- ceairy but also very fair and reasonable that jK premiums on policies should be paid for Insurance companies are daily jH preuii vrhen due. and ionrly having losses wbich they MUST pay. Hence the unavoidable necessity of all policies being paid for. Submitting the above in all kindness for consideration and asking y-nir careful Reading of the following appropriate article from a leading Insurance Journal. Kespect fully, H.

S. THOMPSON. JOHN L. PAUL. the Insurance DON'T PAIL TO PAY FOE YOUK INSURANCE POLICIES.

"If you are not just prepared to pay for your policy when issued the agent grants a reasonable credit, say for a few weeks or months and in the mean time your policy is kept yalid and in full force as though you had paid for it. But it should be remembered that this kindness does NOT mean an indefinite credit allowing policy holders to pay his or her insurance just when they may please to do so. An agent must pay his companies promptly, but if those who receive insurance aie tardy and neglect to pay for it, then the agent becomes involved in serious financial embarrassments and perhaps ruin. When the policy is received the assurred is then protected and secured agairst total loss in case of fire.which is certainly an item of vital consideration; hence the fairness and importance of an undelayed effort and aim to pay for it. If a company should baffle or delay and take its own time to pay a loss, would not such a course be regarded as annoying and unpleasant' It certainly would and Bridge Letting.

The bridge letting by the County Commissioners, advertised to take place yesterday, brought a great many bridge builders to town. Eleven iron bridge manufacturers were represented and almost an equal number of bids Here put in for wooden structures. The singular, part of the bidil ing was that in almost every instance the bids for iron structures were lower than for wood. The following are the bridges let and the length of span of each Fire Points, Washington township, 58 feet Dick's Mill, Green feet. Bodgtr's Mill, East Wheatfield, 53 feet.

Pickering Bun, East Mahoning, 40 feet. Homer City. Center township, 120 feet. Yellow creek, Cherryhill township, 06 feet. Plumvillc, 35 feet.

120 feet. The contract for aJl the above bridges was given to the Morse Bridge Company, of Youngstown, Ohio, at $9 02 per foot. This is what their bids for all the-bridges averaged. Their bids for some of the short structures were as low as $7 per foot, while the bids for the long bridges were as high $14 50 per foot. The masonry for all the bridges will ag- about 600 yards and the contract was giyen to F.

B. McVey, of Armstrong county, at $3 65 per yard. The competition between the companies was active and the county profited thereby and will have eight good iron bridges at a very low price. The Morse Company built the Coketon biidge and it is aa excellent piece of work and the high reputation of the Company insures good work onjhe bridges just let. The Abeat Fire Insurance.

The people who live in the vicinity of Purchase Line Academy take a lively interest in that institution, and many of them are keenly anxious for its succeis. This spring they completed a spacious boarding house for ladies, in which are rooms and accommodations for thirty.

The building is a substantial frame structure, 30x48 feet, and two stories in height, and conveniently arranged for the pnrposes'for which it was designed. The completion of this building, and the great success attending the educational institution in which they are so much interested, caused the promoters to have a dinner in the building on the Fourth of July, thus to celerbrate that glorious occasion and to exchange felicitations on the success of their school. The programme of ixercises included vocal and instrumental very a a a as the same rule applies to the payment of policies, it is not difficult to appreciate the correctness of the -views expressed in this article.

But it does not appear to disturb their rest. They go right along, doing the best they can be for the tax payers and pay no attention to the growling of the set of curs about the News office. Our Commiisioners are reputable men and fully competent to look after tbi affairs of the county and the criticisms of a lot of unprin- ciple nonentities does not disturb them in the least.

The occasion was a pleasant one, and will long be remembered. The Academy is one of the oldest educational institutions in the county, and while the most pretentious, has for years been doing good aud to-day is on a firmer and more nduring foundation than ever. It has been a power for good in the community, and its promoters deserve great credit for its maintainance in the face of much competition. The situation of the school is a pleasant one, and the surroundings are conducive to study, and it is the effort of the community to make everything pleasant for the scholars.

Many of the citizens of the vicmiey merit praise for their efforts to establish and maintain the Academy and none more so than Joseph Nichol, the well known lumberman and shingle manufacturer whose contributions have been marked by great liberality and whose constant effort it seemb to be to promote its usefulness.

All the time there has been one, and most of the time two competing agencies here.and in the mean time our county his been traversed persistently from border to border by agents and solicitors frem five adjoining counties, seeking and doing our own town not escaping them. Now in the face of these facts does it appear as tuough any one man had a monopoly of the business' Why, such an assertion is too utterly stupid to even smile at, and the fact is notorious to insurance men who know thoroughly the situation in Western Pennsylvania, that in no territory of its extent and amount of insurable property has there been greater competition than in Indiana county, nor lower rates. In fact they all know too well that competition has been so great, rates so low and fires so very frequent that the margin in their favor is quite small enough indeed, and may be soon consumed by one single large fire orfrequent sncce-sive fires in our county. Yet for all this, the old, reliable companies of Thompson's agency are on hands, doing business at fair and adequate rates and paying adjusted losses promptly.

It might also be added here that since hib agency began business here, 15 years ago, about 200 compares have failed and quit business, and that several of these 200 were the close competitors of his companies, trying to pilfer and "sneak thief their business by the cheap insurance dodge and various other tricks. His companies are however, at a mature, experienced age transacting business at a small profit, satisfying claims and enjoying the confidence of the public.

It is not always a calamity upon the community when a prisoner escapes from jail but occasionally a man charged with a high crime is incarcerated in that institution and for the good of the community he should be tried and if guilty he should be puaished.
