A DISCLAIMER.— I much regret the appearance in our columns of an adver tisement for a circus show, and hereby disclaim all responsibility for it. I be lieve these institutions to be demoral izing in their tendency and influence, differing perhaps in degree but not in kind.

A terrible accident resulting in the instant death of Charles Bentz, thirty years of age, occurred at Reading last week on tho Reading railroad. Bentz was on his way to work, and while crossing the networks of rails was run over by a shifting engine. His body was dragged a distance of lift y feet and was frightfully mangled, having been doubled up under the pilot of the en gine, which with several cars passed over it. No blame is attached to the engineer as he did not see "the tfcfcJt'ln time to prevent tho accident. The Oldest Postmaster in America. Maryland can lay claim to tue oldest postmaster in the country. It is not often that an offcer who has served un der Andrew Jackson can fce found holding the saroo place to which he had been appointed by ''Old Hickory," but the case of Mr. Edward Stabler is an illustration perhaps without its parallel in tho United States. Mr. Stabler, half a century ago, was ap pointed postmaster of Sandy Springs by Audresv Jackon, and is still serving in that capacity, having held the oftice uninterruptedly, w'th the exception of a few years when he was in the service of another branch of the Postal Depart ment.

The strangest thing that took place was at the farm of Abraham Smith, who lives four miles south of town, where a real, genuine shower of stones fell, mixed with what seems to be plas tering.

Suppose, sir, you had foullv slandered me V" "I never slander." "Then, sir. suppose I had cooly and deliberately insulted you. What would you do ?" "I'd rise up this way, put down my hook this way, and reach over like this and take him by the nose as 1 take you, and give it a three-quarter twist—just so!" When tl e "ittle man let go of the big man's nose, the man with the white hat on began to crouch down to get a wriy from br.llcts, but there was no shooting. The big man turned .red, then pale, then looked the little man ever and remarked: "Certainly— of course—that's it ex actly!", And then tho conversation turned 011 the general prosperity of the coun try. .llilllieliu MnrkH.
