two weeks with some ailment which the

typhoid fever. Nina was just thirty

the home ever sir.ce the death of her

Jays Cross Wins His Surr.—The
truch tried and long drawn out case, be-
tween the Juniata Mining Co., and
James Oross, defendant, which occupied
the attention of our court the whole of
last week, was ended on Saturly morn-
ing when the jury brought ina verdict
for the defendant. The case was con-
cerning a tract of land, comprising about
one hundred acres in Half Joon Twp.,
on which is located the Juniata Ore
mine. The ejectment was first served in
1884 and since then has been tried twice
in the supreme court and three times in
our lower court. Mr. Cross having won
it twice in the latter and once in the
former. It was one of those intricate
land cases which involve much legal
talent and yet are without interest. The
plaintiffs have filed a motion for a new
trial, which was at once
will be argued in the near future, be-

while Thos. Murray of Clearfield, Jno.

THz CURIOUS TALE 0F A GoAT.—
Scarcely kad the mists of the morning
lifted themselves from’ o’er the yet half
slumbering city of the “beautiful foun-
tain,‘‘ere one of those restless up-country
politicians who had come early to wel-
come George Wallace Delamater, was
seen nervously wending his way down
High street. It was Friday morning.
The night before had been dull. Re-
publicans would not enthu:e, and fired
with the same spirit that has carried the
| redoubtable Quay’ through many dang- |
erous adventures, this Cyrus-ian gentle-
man, with the flames of adventure burn-
ing within his turkish toweling vested
breast, spied a goat. It was one of those
innogent, harmless looking creatures
that have so fine an eye for the ridicu-
lous that they generally hit you on the
gable end just when you suppose that
you are looking the most striking. Yes,
it was a goatand it was hitched to a
small slop wagon. Its owner had left
it standing on the road while he went
irtoa house for the moraing’s garbage.
Our hero,and truly he was an Apollo, as
he stood there, attired in a long ‘frock
coat, white vest and dog fighting trou-
sers, reflected but a moment, crawled
into the wagon and, seating himself on
top of the barrel, cried “get up.” It
was but a short ride. Buta few jumps
of the goat and he was on the bot-
tom of the little wagon, howling like a
crazy man and looking very similar to
the monkeys one sees driving goats in a
circus. His coat tails flying—not his
goat tails, because he only had one—his
white vest expanding and his trousers
geowing thinner from contact with the
rough bottom of the wagon as it jolted
rapidly over the stones. In fact the fre-
quent applications of spilled slop was all
that kept the frigtion from giving him a
most agonizing death from burns. Her
nanny-ship made one grand dash for
home. The wagon stood on end. The
gay driver flew, midst a deluge of potato
peels, banana skins and greasy dish
water, alighting upon a sharp upturned
stone. The scene was entrancing.
Men laughed, women screamed and
old Sol shot out a beautiful red light to
make the effect more forcible, while an
early bird complacently twittered its
slow music, Carefully and tenderly
this tattered and torn piece of Half moon
townships, politicalorganism picked him-
self up, and silently, stealthily has he
scouted Bellefonte’s streets for the goat
ever since.

The game was one. sodid and void of

men, while the home team pounded
Meteaif’s easy delivery all over the lot.

of the Tyrone club who secured a hit.

in the morning but took their revenge
on us in the afternoon. Woddcock
and Fahnstock wereagain in the points
for Bellefonte and did excellent work.
Had they had good support the result
would have been different but our boys
played the best game of which they
were capable. The Yorks are ball play-
ers from the word go and, though they
made no brilliant plays on our grounds,
they had just enough chances to show
that they were away up in the profess-
ion. Selden and Thomas, their battery
and Terrell, the short stop, played a
beautiful game. For us, Musser and
Quigley carried off the honors ty their
sharp fielding and ‘opportune batting.
