A SPECIMEN op MALICIOUS MIS CHIEF.—One morning last week some one adopted a very questionable meth od of haying sport, and one which might involve serious consequences.

Quickly, lie reversed the en gine, the stop being so sudden that the passengers were disagreeably shaken, lie went forward to rescue the drunken qaan or would-be suicide from the rail and found it only a stqil'ed figure !

They ate on tln track of the tramp who is supposed to be the murderer of the Col by couple. The fellow is desctibed to be a burly-locking chap, with sandv side w biskcts, of a icddish cast, and wrais a slouch hat down over his eyes. Mr. West brook, for mot o than an hour eiitcrtaincil a crowd of altenlivo listen ers by relating some of the particulars connected with the murder case and a uiong other interest ing things told of tin* strange dream of Commissioner Grugaii. who has become famous as a prophetic dreamer. His account of it agrees almost to the letter with the fol lowing from the Ihiihi Jhumcrat of Lock Haven : "ilnitii! night nf Thursday, tin' Ith in stant, as Mr. tii'ugan lay nit his lust asleep, lie had a vision, and In tliul vision he saw a lonely H|sit, apparently in tin* wilderness, with something like a house or shed, hut which seemed to liiut more like liourds standing on end leaning against trees, with a small corn crib attached. Then lie saw a murder committed near a creek, one jiersou doing tin- tilmsly work.but apparently with a knife. Two other persons in dark clot lies glided ill upon the scene, hilt they did liot - em to have any eoiiiir. tiou with the iiiur iter, were going away from the place. Then in his dream lie saw the murderer ill anotli ! er dark and remote sjuit build a fire and hum some clothes, at the same time secret ing s.ear thing that looked to him like a erowtiar and a satidn'l, putting them in a Bucket beneath some underbrush. Then lie saw the individual leave the thicket and j cross a creek, where hy washed the blood from his person, at th< same time making n a mark wlu re he crossed the creek. Tin last seen of the man in the dream he was going south, and filially disappooared in the woods. "Now ii must l>e rcmcmlMTed that Mr. Drug.in dreamed this on Thursday night the Ith instant, two or perhaps throe days before the I'ulvey murder was committed, and it made stieh an impression on his mind that he made a draft of the locality. Then he told the dream to his associates at Mic Court House and show is I his draft. tf eourse, lie was laughed at, and they had a great deal of fun at his expense. At the time of the dream Mr. (Irugan did not know whether the spat he dreaiuisl of was in existence or not. Now for the sequel. On Friday, the 12th, Mr. (Irugan, Mr. Kro sioti-. Mr. llerr and Mr. MeNaul thought they would drive over to the scene of the i'ulvey murder, Mr. (irugau l'ing .joked with ail alqiig the way lieeause of his dream.

Cheney & Co.,Toledo,O. —Dear Sirs: About three months ago, notic ing a letter addressed to you in the Ike from Gen. Slevin, in relerence to the cure of his son hy the use of Hall's Ca tarrh Cure, we were induced to com mence the use of it for our daughter Nellie, now fourteen years old,who has been suffering from catarrh for about eight years, during which time she has been treated by one of the best physic ians in the city. We have also tried the use of almost all the known leme dies for catarrh, with no more success than temporary relief. Many nights have we laid awake to hold her mouth open to keep tier from strangling. Her hearing had also become affected. We were afraid that she would never recov er. We have now used six bottles of HALL'S CATAHIUI CUBE and we be lieve Nellie to be entirely cured. In a few days after commencing the uso of it wo noticed a decided change for the better, and from that right along she has improved, until now she breathes as easily as any one. She sleeps well and her hearing is perfectly good. We Gel that the disease is entirely re moved. We write this unsolicited let ter, feeling that it is due you, and with the hope that others may be benefitted in a like manner. We can hardly real ize that Such a change could be effected in so short a time after battling with the disease so long. Wo are still using the remedy at Intervals, as it seems to build up her system. You are at lib erlv to use this in any manner you see proper. Wo are yours, truly, MIL & MRS. S.

Inspecting n littrKC Vineyard. Mil, SPEER ENTERTAINS A PAIITV AT 1113 HOME IN PASSAIC. Alfied Speer, the well known wine maker of Passaic. N. J., entertained a small party, including members of the New Yoik Board of Health and prom inent physicians, at his vineyard and wine cellar Saturday. The party con sisted of Dr. Cyrus Kdson, Dr. Edward 11. Janes, assistant sanitary superin tendent; Dr A, M. Jacobus, I)r. Chas S. Wood, George Wood, Clerk of tlie Court of Special Sessions ; Miss Daisy Wood and a TRIBUNE reporter. Mr. Speer was waiting at the Passaic sta tion with carriages, and the party was driven to the vineyatd and through it among the vines. There is more than two miles of road under grape arbors, and the bunches that hang thick along the sides and oyethead give promise of a beautiful sight when the grapes are ripe. Mr. Speer's vineyards cover ilfty-six acres. The vines are trained on wires, stretched one above another eighteen inches apart, to n height of live wires, and there are more that. 300 miles of wire used in this way. The leading variety of giapes raised are the Concord and the Opot to. The original viues of the latter Mr. Speer imported" about thirty-two years ago, from the banks of the Doura, in Portugal. There was much difficulty at first in acclimating the vines, and out of 5,- tXK) imported only Blived. These Mr. Speer cultivated, and he estimates that, lie has now from lo,tioO to So,U"U. A„fter leaving the vineyard the party the *iue cellars, where the wines, some of last year's vintage and some so old that Mr. Speer himself had forgotten what they were, lay in every size of receptacle from the pint bottle to the 1,000 gallon tun. Here Mr. Speer showed his prooess, discovered two years ago, for preventing the fer raentatian of grape juice. Mr. Speer has succeeded, he claims, in killing the germs of fermentation altogether by passing a current of electricity through the juice. Fumigated casks are still used, and the wires conducting the current are attached to nails driveu through the heads of the casks. Dr. Wood, who has visited the vineyards of California, said that there were no wines that physicians could recom mend with more confidence than Speer's port wine, and all the doctors agreed that this and the other varieties were of the highest purity and excel lence. Mr. Speer makes port, claret, unfermented juice, Burgundy and grape brandy, the quantities ranking in the order named. After a substantial supper served in Mr. Speer's private park, the party from Now York returned home highly pleased with everything it had seen. —Any person who wants paying work as local or traveling agent for warranted nursery stock should apply atonce to Jas.

They then struck across the mountain to this place, and when entering the town turned down Danl. Brumgard's alley, coming out at the lower end of town. When they stepped out on the road Hole Franz and the other young men caught sight of them and at once concluded that they are suspicious characters. They hurried to town for help and thi> tramps were arrested and brought Itefore Squire Garlin for a hearing. Word was sent to Sugar Valley and the parties robbed came to the scene as soon as pos sible. The tramps were searched and there were a goodly amount of cakes, a large piece of ham, matches, a butcher knife and a big chisel found upon their persons. It happened that Westbrook, the Lock Haven detective, came along, who hobbled the fel lows and sent them on to Boonville for further proceedings. The arrest created an intense excitement in our quiet burg. Nan on. Renews Her Youth.
