A. WALTER, Sec.
—Last Friday afternoon the barn on
the lot of Miss Katie Dinges, near E.
Luse & Son's Planing Mill, was utterly
crushed to the earth by the heavy load
of snow on the roof. The wreck is
complete and the barn needs to be re
built entire. The report of the "crash"
was heard nearly over the whole town.
James Nntt is about the best ad
vertised young man in the United
States. Everybody knows by this time
that he shot the betrayer Dukes, that
he was insane at that particular mo
ment, but that 1 is insanity lasted only
a moment, and that be is pronounced
as sane as any other men for all practi
cal purposes.
—We call the attention of our read
ers to the new advertisement o! D. I.

church next Saturday and Sunday.
—Mr. B. F. Kister, our expert shoe
maker showed us a rail' of gaiters
which he made fur a party away out in
Kansas. The gaiters are a 'splendid
piece of workmanship, and his custom
ers seem to be aware of the fact that he
is able to do just sucb work, else they
would not send in their orders from
the far West. Frank certainly deserves
a good support.
—Last week we should have men
tioned the visit of the newly married
couple, Mr- & Mrs. Hoover, at Mr. J.
W. Adam's. Mrs. Hoover is the sec
ond daughter, Mary E'.len, of Mr. Ad
ams,and is a most estimable lady,while

warm recommendation as the best
yielding potatoe in the market. If you
are in need of any seed potatoes do not

ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.—OU Sa'ur
day two sleds collided just on the east
side of the bridge in town, which came
very near being a serious accident.
The one sled was driven by Ilgen Mus
ser anq was heavily loaded with plas
ter. The other was occupied by Mr.
L. J5. Stover and wife and was slightly
loaded. Mr. and Mrs. Stover were
both thrown out. Mrs. S over escaped
with a few slight bruises, but Mr. Sto
ver fell on the pole with his breast and
was at first thought to be seriously
hurt, however he soon recovered.
Only a few organs left of the sev
eral styles of crtM'S and actions, which
will be sold at "Silling out*' price,
(cheap) by O. F. (Jephnrt. Terms,
time given with security, installments,
or cash.

name.l. L. IIU/AT/ Itissiniph A.
Walter.
—On Saturday the Oth of Februaiy
(he public sale of the personal property
of Jonathan Kreamer,late of Millheim,
deceased, will take place in town.
There will be sold some fine live stock,
good farming implements, household
goods and several shares of si ck in
differtnt companies.
The entertainment of the 11' halcr
hi at Aaronsburg last Friday even
ing was very interesting,a marked suc
cess throughout The pupils of Mr.
Mussel's school acquitted themselves
admirably and were fully appieciitcd
by the largo audience present. Mr.
Musser ranks high as a teacher and his
school is one of the best in this part of
the county.
—Saturday was the day for the ground
hog to regulate the weather for the
next six weeks. The sun shone a little
although not ven brightly, the ground
hog could see his shadow—at least in
spots, and so he goes back to bis hole
to stay for six weeks longer during
which time winter is to hold supreme
sway upon the earth. ll<w would we
know all this were it not for the vener
able ground bog ?
—Mr. John Kerstetter, Jr., still
makes a business of doing special jobs
at carpentry. John is really "an expert
at the business and lias large expet inee,
both in making out plans, specifications
and drawings, as well as a practical
workman. People who entrust their
work into his hands can safely rely on
having it done m best style at the low
est prices. tf
—Foxes arc very sly creatures, but
we never heard until the other day that
even a dead fox could stop a mill. But
that is just what happened at Camp
bell's mill last week. One of '.lie
wheels stopped entirely and the water
had to be drawn off to examine what
was wrong, when it was found that a
dead fox was tightly wedged into the
Turbine wheel and stopped it. It is
thought that the fox bad been chased
by dogs until utterly exhausted, and
falling into the dam or bea I race thus
found his way into the wheel.
ACCIDENT TO MR. S. K. FAUST.—
The other Tuesday Mr. S. K. Fausi,
the well- known buggy maker of Spring
Bank,bad a serious accident at Milton,
the particulars of which arc substantial
ly as follows : Mr. Faust and Mr. A.
J. Immel went to Milton on business,
Monday before. On Tuesday afternoon
they left the Broadway House for home,
but had gone only a short distance
when one of the yoke straps broke.
This caused the pole to drop into the
snow, giving the sleigh such a sudden
and violent upright position that it,
threw Mr. Faust out with great force
against a post about ten I'ect distant,
lie was taken up and carried into a
drug store when it was found that he
was severely hurt in the back and oth
erwise. Later Mr. Faust was taken to
the Broadway House, where he is still
in a condition that forbids him to he
removed. He is under the best treat
ment and nursing, as Mrs. Faust her
self is present to give him every atten
tion.
Mr. Immel escaped all injury and
brought the team home the day after
the Accident.
LATER. On Tuesday Mr. Faust was
brought home and is in much better
condition than any one had hope, lie is
rapidly improving.
TIIE COUNTY STATEMENT.—WE
call the attention of our readers to the
annual county statemen tin the form
of a Supplement to the JOURNAL. It
should be carefully examined by every
tax-payer and citizen, compared with
former statements and preserved for
future reference.
The statement bears examination,
giving a full and detailed account of all
the resources from whatever source,
and all the expenditures for whatever
purpose. Everything is given in de
tails as it should be.
But what concerns our citizens the
most is the bala nee sheet, under the
heading of Financial Statement— the
last item of the account. It will be
seen that the entire indebtedness of the
county amounts to slo,s'>o.B9,while the
nominal assetts sum up $13,111.82.
leaving a balance in favor of the county
of $3560.63. Just how much ot these
assttts are worthless the statement
doe 3 not say. There may he consider
able that is not collectable,diminishing
the assetts to that extent. An examina
tion of the list of outstanding taxes
may throw some light on this matter.
The am ounts outstanding before the
year 1881 is compartively small, only
$2381.92.
Another gratifying feature of the
statement is the amount oi debts paid
duiing the yeir, $29, 76.1. This is a
boui the same reduction that was made
last year, and speaks better than any
wo:ds of praise we could give of the
excellent management of our county
finances, by our present board of com
missioners.

—The i!lth of January was an ex
ceedingly unpleasant day ; but not
withstanding this the circumstances
within doors, at the Reformed parson
age in Aaronsburg, were of a very
pleasant and cheering nature. Ry pre- ;
vious arrangement it was agreed,on the
part of the people of the charge, to sur
prise the pastor and his family, in the
way of a donation visit. The day how
ever was unfavorable. A few from the
country and most of those in Aarons
and Jfillheim, numbering about twenty
families, were represented. A few
hours were pleasantly spent iti social
intercourse, after which our friends
retired leaving behind them tangible
evidence of their kindness and good
will,in the shape of articles of clothing,
groceries, butter, fruit, horse feed and
a purse of silver for the pastoi's wife.
We take pleasure in noticing the fact,
that all the families in Aaronsburg, of
the Presbyterianchureh,took a generous j
part in the act of kindness.
For several days others continued
to report th'tnfives at thepirson*
agp, and on tho 2.4 th several sleds ar
rived loaded with valuable tokens of re
gatd from members of the Salem's con
gregation. Resides this,box and pack
age, prepared for the day first appoint
ed, were here and theie placed in the
pastor's sleigh as he chanced to meet
the kind donors whilst out in pursuit
of his accustomed duties. There are
happy beasts at the parsonage fireside,
and it is hoped, that those who made
them so are equally happy in the giv
ing.
For these and other gifts frequently
received from our kind people through
out the charge we return our sincere
thanks and invoke upon them the
blessing of Heaven.
