bigness of manufacturing cigars has Btu conducted extensively a Tyrone but while it has not been on the increase for several years past it has been holding its own fairly Well it is the purpose of or Templeton to push it along now with Good Hopes of widening the Trade so As to make his factory a Large and import ant concern among the industries of the place for the present the factory will remain a the Flyntz Block where it has been for a number of years but soon As it becomes necessary other quarters will be found to meet the emergency of an increased business Martin Herzog has been installed

Congress appropriated for them Haye taken their Appeal to Cesar Cleveland himself these senators know just Well As a very body else does that Appeal will be useless the holding up of sugar Bounty Money having been sanctioned by or Cleveland Loog be fore Little Bowier set himself we As a sort of one Man supreme Wurt to de the constitutionality of acts of Congress appropriating but made

Economy one member of the mar be say s As a measure of econ omy abolished the distribution of seeds to the Farmers of the country in Defi Ance of Congress which appropriated the Money to buy the seeds and to pay for their distribution another Mem Ber of the Secretary Herbert has started on a weeks tour of the Atlantic coast summer resorts on Board of the u s dispatch boat Dol Phin at Public expense he didst say that Bis pleasure trip was also a Meas ure of Economy but he tries to disguise its real nature by pretending that it is made for the purpose of inspecting the 3favy Yards on the at lactic the nations of the world seem to know the timid nature of the Cleveland administration quite As Well As americans do months ago France was asked to furnish a copy of the papers in the Case of a Consul Waller who is now in a French prison and it refused an unprecedented thing to do another demand has since been made for the papers and state department officials express the opinion that another refusal will in due course be made meanwhile an american citizen is languishing in a French prison on what he claims to be trumped up charges and an unfair trial this administration seems to be opposed to Protection for americans either at Home or abroad it is estimated that there Are about 1500 people in Tyrone who smoke cigars j and allowing that the average con sumption is fire for each person the total would be 7500 cigars a this nay seem overdrawn but it is known that Many persons smoke feta fifteen to Twenty a Das while Aoa of course smoke Les than one a Day on an aver age if Thev smoke at All so the Esti mate May not be so very wide of the Mark estimating last As Many cigars go out of town from the factories As come in from other factories this Industry in itself to already an important one though consumption May be tout 5000 per Day if forced As or doing the Busi Ness May in a Short time reach very Large proportions Small Sampat hitching weight in front of the Franciscus hardware store is a Sample of hitching weight is neat and no doubt will answer the purpose first rate for which it is in tended and in time we Hope All the unsightly hitching posts on the prominent streets will be replaced by a Complete system of these weights for hitching purposes a Tyrone it would give the town a More like appearance and would harmonize with the otherwise neat and attractive appearance of our streets speaking of weights for pitching Pur poses a horse to matter How tame he May be should not be left stand on the Street eclied the most docile animal is liable to and life is always endangered by the runaway in a town besides a hitched horses standing on the Street Are liable and frequently do destroy Shade Trees this is an outrage and to discouraging to those who in deader to beautify and make their prop Erpf comfortable by cultivating and rearing Shade Trees along the curb every delivery Wagon in town and every other vehicle that Baa occasion to make frequent stops along the streets should be provided with a weight to prevent runaways and protect the Trees from destruction As Drivers of milk wagons usually remain in their wagons if would Perua be inconvenient and indeed unnecessary for them to use the weight but it is certainly not the proper thing for them to carelessly allow their horses to injure Trees while they Are dealing out milk to customers which a sometimes the Case it would be a first rate thing if a sys Tern of weights were adopted and we Hope in the interest of cleanliness and in the interest of the Shade tree that it will not be far Distant be careful in cashing there not always Worth the Cash a Good piece of advice to our people is that they should be everlastingly Vig Ilant and punctilious by careful about giving up Good hard Cash in Exchange for checks the the value of which they cannot be fully assured of several Small forgeries in this immediate part of the state make this reminder of present pertinence l c Johnston has for two or three years conducted a Small mercantile establishment at Spruce Creek and upon his stationery announced himself a dealer in merchandise cigars tobacco and file soaps partaking of a Quality of the last mentioned commodity he has proved himself a Slippery customer As is evidenced by the discovery that he has been juggling with checks which Are not genuine orders to pay Johnston selected the name of a a Stevens Esq of Tyrone As a signature for Bis forged checks and dated them july 20 which happened to be last pay Day at or Stevens extensive Limestone quarries at Penberton the checks were All drawn upon the Blair county banking co of Tyrone even though or Stevens at present has no account running with this Bank there was no particular advantage in Johnstons selection of payday for drawing the checks As or Stevens pays Hia men with Cash by the envelope system his employees not receiving checks at All the checks which in the Ordinary course of business came o the Blair county Bank for payment with the forged signature of me Stevens on All were no 863 for endorsed Hugo Mayer and presented by the first National Bank of Huntingdon no for endorsed s c

disappeared another Ca Setji forgery is also to be noted a Tyrone a few Days ago a Young Man of about Nineteen appeared in a local mercantile establishment purchased a Small Bill of goods and offered in payment a Check for on the first National Bank of Tyrone purporting to be signed by Thomas Coleman the merchant did not know the customer who gave his name As John t Dull and who represented my self As an employee of or Coteman who is oae of the Best known Farmers in sinking Valley and a stockholder in the Bank upon which the Check was drawn after some hesitation the merchant accepted the Check and in Theo Ourse o is business deposited it Only to Fine that it was worthless it Wasa clubs forgery and anyone familiar with or Coleman signature would ave seen the trick at once the merchant do not know Dull nor or Coleman Sig nature however and took the Check on a risk it is simply a lesson that should be heeded by All business men tha they should know their men before extending the
