ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.— Late on
last Saturday night a youth bewildered
by benzine and almost frenzied from
fright, told a terrible tale of a dire di
saster, the scene of which he located on
Thomas street. It appears that he and
another youth, whose name, in the ex
citement of the moment he had for
gotten, were passing along said street
to Pitt, and the said street being then
and there somewhat too narrow for
their nocturnal perambulations, they
ventured beyond its limits and came
upon the platform of an old well, the
planks of which, (like those of some
political organizations) had from long
usage become decayed, when, as ran
the story of the excited youth, his
chum broke through and went to the
bottom, crying for help, which infor
mant was unable to give. To rescue
his friend from this perilous condition,
he gave the alarm aforesaid. Consid
ering his condition, grave doubts were
entertained as to the correctness of the
story, yet a party of stalwart inen and
brave, accompanied by "ye local" who
was itching for an item, proceeded to
the spot and found the platform suffi
ciently broken to admit the body of a
man. The story might be but too true,
thought we. Experiments, well known
to science, were made to ascertain if
any one had really gone through the
aperture in the platform. All efforts
proving fruitless, it was resolved to
postpone further investigation till
morning. When Sunday came and the
benzine had evaporated and the youth
had shaken himself together, his recol
lections of the incidents of the evening
before were more vivid. He remem
bered of having himself staggered upon
the platform, broken through and been
rescued from a sudden anil unexpected
plunge into the bowels of terra firma.
He had mistaken the man. He had
been chasing a phantom, and was on
the verge of making a first class local
for us, and a melancholy end to his
existence.
! Moral —Beware of benzine, especial lv
if your business calls you to the vicini
ty of dilapidated wells.
ADVERTISE YOLK SALES OK PER
sox AL P ROPERT V . —Every spring th ere
are many sales of personal property in
Bedford county. They are generally
advertised by hand bills alone. The
most efficient means of calling the at
tention of buyers to their vendues is
neglected by a majority of sellers.
They do not seem to be aware of the
fact that a sale advertised in the news
| papers of the county, is brought before
the immediate notice of hundreds who
never see the bills which have been so
I carefully posted in taverns and other
places. When asked to advertise their
sales in newspapers, many people ob
ject on account of the expense. They
forget that a single additional bidder
on any one article of value, will real
ize Irom twice to ten times the amount
an advertisement in the newspapers
would cost. In other sections of Penn
sylvania the people are wiser, and
| some of our exchanges come to us with
long columns full of advertisements of
personal property sales. Any man
I who tries it, will be abundantly satis
fied of the wisdom of his act before his
I sale is half over, He will find in the
large crowds of bidders present, a cor
roboration of all we have said, and
when he comes to count up his gains,
will give the newspaper credit for ma
ny dollars which he would not other
wise have received. Our job office is
unsurpassed, and we get out bills that
i cannot be excelled ; but an advertise
ment in the GAZETTE will do more to
draw a large crowd of good bidders to
a sale than any number of the hand
somest bills that can be printed. Try
it, and you will certainly be convinced
of the truth of what we say.

SLIGHTLY MIXED. —The Fulton
Republican under the head of "Phila
delphia Murders" says the following j
"There are more criminals charged
with murder, awaiting trial, than in
any other city in the United States.
: Scarcely have the citizens got over the
scare and horror of the "Hill" murder,
• than they are startled by the murder
of Mr. Rogers, under the most atrocious
circumstances. To say nothing of the
bad grammar, as a news item this is
decidedly rich. The "atrocious" mur
der of Mr. Rogers took place in New
i York, a small village in a neighboring
State, of whose geographical existence
the editor of the Republican no doubt
has no knowledge. He is about as
well informed on the current news of
the day as he is on polities. Poor fel
low ! he can't help it,
THAT FAMOUS BIRD. —The Express
Office was the scene of considerable
excitement the other day, which
was caused by the presence of a rara
avis in the shape of a live eagle, which
had been brought from Fulton county
bv Mr. Harry Hutton. His birdship
j was honored by the visits of many
who had never seen a specimen of this
bird made famous in Fourth of July o
rations anil song. This one, in posses
sion of Harry is a fine specimen of his
tribe, but as we are not well enough
booked in Ornothology we will not
j venture the opinion as to whether he
belongs to that species so closely allied
to the Star Spangled Banner.
See advertisement of Dr. C. N. lliek
ok in another column for building
plans, Ac. We need say no more to re
commend the Doctor's skill as an artist
i than to remind the public that he is

queen of architecture,
