Hoover, Edward - 1881
Jaw-Bone band.--
Last Saturday night the jaw-bone band was in town. Shouts, oaths and generally beastial conduct made up the programme <sic>. The leader, one William Christ, after vainly trying to discover a candidate for a sore head on Main street, went to the depot. On complaint, the festive Christ was neatly tucked under the arm of a constable. William was invited to give bail for his appearance before ‘Squire Reidenbach on Friday (to-day), at 1 o’clock, to answer to a charge of assault and battery and disturbance of the peace, and accepted the invitation.
Ed. Hoover will appear before Justice Reidenbach to-day at 4 o’clock and attempt to show cause why he shall not be punished under the law made and provided for the prevention of cruelty to animals. Mr. John W. Hollinger instituted the inquiries which so nearly concern Edward.
~ The Lititz Record, 14-Oct-1881, Page 3, Column 3
In Court.--
Justice Reidenbach at the hearing of William Christ on Friday last judged that fine and costs, amounting to $15, and bail to keep the peace would about meet the case.
On the same day, and before the same magistrate, Edward Hoover paid costs and fine in the sum of $12.50.

Sturgis, Julius Ferdinand - 1881
An Old Inhabitant
The Venerable Bretzel - Seventy Years Of Business Life
Last week we mentioned a prosperous but comparatively new industry in our village; now we take pleasure in noticing an establishment in our midst whose venerable age entitles it to be classed among “our oldest inhabitants”. But, notwithstanding the frosts of many winters and the paralytic shocks of several panics, the blood of enterprise still courses and lusty vigor still lies in the business sinews of the institution. Who has not heard of or bought the Lititz bretzel? Yet how few know that but one manufactory of the kind ante-dates this one in the United States.
In the latter part of the last century, William Henry Rauch was born in the town of Lititz and grew to manhood here. About the year 1810 a German vagrant, a precursor of the tramp, imparted to Mr. Rauch, in return for favors received, the secret of bretzel-making. The entire process was explained, and Rauch at once began the manufacture, in the building located on Main street, adjoining Enck’s furniture store. At that time the dough was kneaded by horse power, much the same as clay is ground for making brick. The proved an unsatisfactory arrangement at certain seasons of the year, and the old German clamp was afterwards substituted. Mr. Rauch made his business trips on horse-back for many years, but his sales eventually became so large that a wagon was found necessary. The Rauch, or Lititz bretzel soon became widely known.
In the course of time Mr. Rauch went to Lancaster with Mr. Gruel, but subsequently returned to Lititz, where he died about fifteen years ago, much lamented. He was a man of considerable education and was a poet of no mean order.
In the establishment of Mr. Rauch was an apprentice by the name of Julius F. Sturgis. In the fullness of time he mastered his trade, and succeeded to the business when Mr. Rauch left, and removed it to the present location further down the street. Mr. Sturgis has added many improvements, and has an establishment complete in all its details. He employs a large force and can produce a number of bretzels unequalled by any other factory of its size in the United States. His sales comprise almost every State in the union.
The incomparable quality of the “German Lititz Bretzel” is due to the discovery of a process by which the acidulous gases are entirely eliminated. This process is known only to Mr. Sturgis, its discoverer.
It has been found that the bane of sea voyages - seasickness, is allayed by the use of these bretzels. When nothing else can be eaten, the stomach retains this food. Physicians frequently recommend them for stomach and bowel complaints, and find an efficacy in their use.
This is one of our oldest business enterprises, and certainly not our least.

The Henry Organ.--
While in Manheim, a short time since, we dropped into the Organ Factory of J. S. Henry. This establishment turns out some of the most beautiful instruments, externally, it was ever our fortune to see. Competent judges pronounce the tone unsurpassed; certainly we could detect no flaw. Mr. Henry has been a practical organ maker for thirty years, and has demonstrated his ability to furnish what the musical public demand, viz: A splendid instrument, at once durable, beautiful and cheap.
Mr. Henry gives his personal supervision to every organ made, and every one is made on honor, both in workmanship and material. A large trade has been worked up during the past years, solely upon the merits of the instrument.
Mr. Henry also has for sale several other makes of organ, but none equal in elaborate workmanship those of his own manufacture, and none excel them in tone.

Gerhard, Milton U. (Dr.) - 1881
A Deer Hunt.--
Messrs. Josiah Snavely and Samuel Foltz, of this place, and Dr. M. U. Gerhard, of Lancaster, brother-in-law of the Rev. D. C. Tobais, left last Tuesday morning for the mountains beyond Lewistown for the purpose of hunting (for) deer. They expect to be absent about two weeks. We wish them abundant success, and know they will return pleased with their trip - provided they be not bitten by rattle-snakes.
~ The Lititz Record, 14-Oct-1881, Page 3, Column 1
Duty Before Pleasure.--
These words are often used in conversation, sometimes correctly and sometimes not. We never heard of a better demonstration of their real meaning than the following: Dr. U. M. Gerhard, of Lancaster, had intended to accompany the party hunters of Messrs. Snavely and Foltz, from this place, who left on Tuesday of last week for the mountains beyond Lewistown on a deer hunt. He equipped himself and look forward with joy and gladness of heart to the day that should bring them in closer proximity to the “antlers in the forest”. The much expected and long looked for time at length arrived. The Doctor started with his outfit for the depot. He purchased his ticket and stood with bated breath picturing in imagination the sport yet in store for them. Suddenly there is a call, a mentioning of his name and lo! A tiny slip of paper is handed him and in it he reads, “Can’t you come and take charge of the Hospital for two or three weeks? I am worn out; I must have rest”. Signed by Dr, Burrell, principal of the institution. What was he to do?
Here is an emergency and he must either take hold of one aor the other of the horns in this dilemma. Instead of to the mountains he went to Bingham’s Hall Hospital, Canandaigua, New York. Duty before pleasure in its true significance is illustrated by the above incident, we think. Dr. G. was formerly connected with the hospital.

These words are often used in conversation, sometimes correctly and sometimes not. We never heard of a better demonstration of their real meaning than the following: Dr. U. M. Gerhard, of Lancaster, had intended to accompany the party hunters of Messrs. Snavely and Foltz, from this place, who left on Tuesday of last week for the mountains beyond Lewistown on a deer hunt. He equipped himself and look forward with joy and gladness of heart to the day that should bring them in closer proximity to the “antlers in the forest”. The much expected and long looked for time at length arrived. The Doctor started with his outfit for the depot. He purchased his ticket and stood with bated breath picturing in imagination the sport yet in store for them. Suddenly there is a call, a mentioning of his name and lo! A tiny slip of paper is handed him and in it he reads, “Can’t you come and take charge of the Hospital for two or three weeks? I am worn out; I must have rest”. Signed by Dr, Burrell, principal of the institution. What was he to do?
Here is an emergency and he must either take hold of one aor the other of the horns in this dilemma. Instead of to the mountains he went to Bingham’s Hall Hospital, Canandaigua, New York. Duty before pleasure in its true significance is illustrated by the above incident, we think. Dr. G. was formerly connected with the hospital.

Snavely, Josiah - 1881
A Deer Hunt.--
Messrs. Josiah Snavely and Samuel Foltz, of this place, and Dr. M. U. Gerhard, of Lancaster, brother-in-law of the Rev. D. C. Tobais, left last Tuesday morning for the mountains beyond Lewistown for the purpose of hunting (for) deer. They expect to be absent about two weeks. We wish them abundant success, and know they will return pleased with their trip - provided they be not bitten by rattle-snakes.

Returned.--
Our friends, Messrs. Josiah Snavely and Samuel Foltz, have returned from a gunning expedition in Mifflin county, after having been gone about ten days. They had pretty good luck, as luck goes. Bears did not hug or rattlesnakes caress them. We are creditably informed that game still roams in the forests of Mifflin.
Our friends killed a large, fine doe and quite a quantity of smaller game. Mr. Foltz shot a leg off a large derr <sic>, but three feet proved better than two and the animal got away. Wild turkeys were numerous. A singular fact (we are not accountable for this statement) in this connection is that the turkeys were apparently posted in the Sunday game law; for on that day they would fearlessly approach farm houses, while during the week they were conspicuous by their absence.

Mayer, Daniel - 1881
To Tobacco Growers.--
Daniel Mayer, buyer for Kerbs & Spices, a gentleman well-known in this section, has given notice to all parties of whom he has bought not to strip their tobacco until after a hard frost, sufficient to freeze out all moisture in the stems, so as to avoid danger of stem rot.
