Barley, by order cf President J. Walter Moore. Our leading manufacturer of brick, and rampant democrat of the Third ward, Daniel D.

Stine, long drawn out and hopeful, is to be congratulated upon the advent to his home on Logan street of a fat, bouncing boy baby which made its appearance yesterday. "Dan" that two-story you attempted to palm off on us some time ago, did not materialize worth a cent. A singular fatality has attended our several banking institutions the past year. Be ginning with April 1890 three of the leading and prominent book-keepers of our leading financial and banking firms have passed to the other shore. William Guyer, of the Tyrone bank, Robert Wallace McCoy, of the Blair County bank, and Claude J.

Barley, of the First National bank. Claude third son of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry C. Burly (both parents having gone before), died at the home of his brother, Ogle, on Logan street, yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock, after a short illness, of typhoid fever.

He was born in this town June 15, 1863, and at death had arrived at the age of 22 years, 6 months and 24 days. He leaves to mourn his early (departure to the great beyond three brothers and two sisters: Ogle, an engineer on the Tyrone division; Mrs. Bella, wife of Harry R. Myers, civil engineer and coal operator, of this place; Joseph of Moore Burley, contractors of our town; Miss May, of Osceola Mills, and Earnest, who has a home with his brother Ogle. After serving an apprenticeship in the photo copying establishment of Daniel Harris here, some three years ago, Claude accepted a position in the bank at Houtz-dale, which, in July last, he relinquished to accept a similar position in the First National bank of our town, which commenced business August 7, 1890, he having held the place of leading book-keeper up until his late illness.

He was a member of Washington camp, Patriotic Order Sons of America, of Houtzdale, and also vice president of the Young Men's Republican league, of this place. A young man of many sterling qualities, his early demise is to be regretted. The funeral service and time of interment will be announced to-morrow, at which time we may have more to say. Some ten days ago Joseph Dysart, night watchman in the machine shops and roundhouse of the Tyrone division at this place, took ill and was compelled to seek his home and bed. His illness developed into typhoid fever and, notwithstanding the best medical attendance was rendered and nursing given, he died at his home, on the corner of Logan and Grace morning at 8 30 O'clock.

Mr. Dysart was born May 3, 1830, in Londonderry, Ireland, and at death had reached the age of 60 years, 8 months and 5 days. He emigrated to this country alone at the age of 17 years and remained in New York city, where he landed, a short from thence he drifted to Philadelphia, where he made his home for twenty-two years, during which time he was engaged in the hardware business. From that place he removed to and located in Lancaster for a short time. On April 30, 1874, with his family, he came to this town, where he has resided ever since.

On October 17, 1865, at Halifax, Nova Scotia, he was united in marriage to Miss Matilda "Bowers, who survives him, together with eight children Louisa, Annie, Edward Isett, Robert Raymond Jennie, Helen and Laura, and one sister, Mrs. Jane, wife of George Dickson, farmer near Birmingham also. He has been for many years a consistent member of the Presbyterian church in this place, also a member of the Free and Accepted Masons and Independent Order of Odd Fellows. While a resident in Philadelphia, a democrat of the Bourbon faith and in which he was ever consistent; a man well versed on all matters and, although crude in a measure, able to cope in argument with the best amongst us. His famil-liar form and genial countenance and pleasant manners will be sadly missed in our community and ten fold greater at the hearthstone where he was most loved and best know.

The bereaved family have the sympathy of our people in this their great affliction. The funeral services will take place at his late residence Saturday at 2 o'clock and will be conducted by Rev. J. R. Davies, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, after which interment in Tyrone cemetery.

BEFORE FOOTLIGHTS. Coming; Attractions at the Opera House. Other Notes. Williamsport people are listening to the Bennett Moullon opera company this week and on Monday next will have an opportunity of witnessing "The Midnight Alarm." "Lest in New York" was produced last night for the first time in Lancaster, and tonight theatre-goers there will fiod out what sort of a minstrel show the Gormans give. The announced return of George C.

Btaley in "A Royal Pass" to the opera houee in this city, on Tuesday next, proves conclusively that he has faith in the play and is not afraid to come back with it to towns where it had been produced before. ''The Royal Pass" is a strong drama, well interpreted by Mr. Staley and his company, and at its previous appearance here gave satisfaction. "The Midnight Alarm1' comes to the opera house on next Wednesday evening. J.

J. Dow ling and Sadie Hasson, supported by an exceptionally brilliant company, will present their greatest success, "Nobody's Claim," at the opera house Saturday evening, January 10. Of this per-forance in Dayton the Dispatch says: "The Park theatre was crowded last night with a tremendous'audience, which was delighted with Joseph J. Dowling as the Red Spider and Sadie Hasson as Roxy, assisted by a good all-round company. The rollicking, free and easy spirit of the west prevades the performances, but the actirjg is admirable, and the interest never flags for a single instant.

Messrs. Allen, Bloom and Shattnc are excellent. Miss Hasson, in her musical specialties, brings down the" house. During the play are introduced those equine actors, Mr. Dowling's horse, and Mis Hasson's cute little burro, 'Don The scenery is new and realistic." He Slept Out.

On Tuesday evening Conduct Shellar had as a passenger on his train to Williamsburg a Hungarian who was so afraid he would be carried past his station that he was with difficulty kept from getting off the train every time it stopped. Finally he reached his destination. Tuesday night was a pretty cold night yet he proceeded to sleep on the warehouse porch and managed to survive. Where he slept Wednesday night is not known, but yesterday morning he got on the train and had a ticket for Gal-litzin. He was brought here safely and it is supposed he has by this time reached his destination.

How he managed to sleep out without freezing to death is one of the mysteries. Another Fool Hungry For Notoriety. Detroit, Mich January 8. Arthur W. Willmeau to day signed paper with a local museum to fast for thirty days.

Evans, at Grove, Lycoming county, which is located near Renovo. Charles Culb was the name of the man who was kil'ed and a man named Miller made a narrow escape. The men had all quit work for the day and had started down the mountain side for camp. Culb and Miller thought they could reach camp quicker, and at the same time have some S-ort, by taking a slab and shooting down the side like a toboggan. They poon put their thoughts into action, and had barely started when Miller either saw or heard a log.which in some manner had gotten into the slide, coming down after them.

He rolled out of the slide safely, but Cnlb was not so fortunate, and the log struck him with such force that he was thrown about 100 feet. About two weeks ago, says the Johnstown Tribune, Levi Stroup, of Hastings, this county, was admitted to the horpital of the University of Pennsylvania, in Philadelphia, for treatment of Bright's disease.

His little son was with him. Another son is said to have a photograph wagon at Ebensburg. Five other children live with their mother in Millers town, Perry county, she and her husband having been separated for some time. At the time of his death Stronp had $220 in gold and $4 in paper in his pockets. He was a miner by occupation.

Interment in the Presbyterian cemetery at Hollidaysburg. Send Your Names Alone. Every now and then somebody sends a marriage notice to the Tribune and then wonders why it does not appear in print. The reason is simple; there is no responsible name attached and we have no means of knowing whether it is the rtcord of a bona-fide marriage or simply the attempt of somebody to play a practical joke. It seems strange, in view of the fact that we have announced conspicuously scores of times that all communications must be accompanied by responsible names, how many people there are who violate this rule.

Scarcely a week passes that some communication does not find a place in our waste basket because we have no way of knowing the name of its author. If you want your articles printed do not forget to send your name along for the private information of the editor. Otherwise don't get angry because you fail to get into print. Officers Elected.
