THE
Th.e annual tattle for local officer! look place
on Tuemiay last. Oreat preparatloni were mad
by the party facetiously known as Ih Labor-Ke-formers,
for a clean sweep. On Saturday night
they held a caucus In the arbitration room at
the Court liouse.whlch was packed in the In
terest of ccrlaln parties. James Thomas, the
constable of last year, was ignored, and J. 0
Sterner nominated In Ms loce. The old mem
bers of the Council, viz. Herring, Uabb, Sharp
less and Evans, were renominated. On the oth
er hand no caucus was held, but the ticket was
quieuy made up on Monday. The old mem
bers of the council, Holmes and Drinker, were
put on the ticket, and O. M. Lockard was aub
stituted for Elwell who declined to serve anoth
n year. When Tuesday arrived the forces
gathered for the strnggle, and It soon became
apparent that the parly that had carried the
town last year, were now disorganized by inter,
nal diwenslons.and dissatisfaction with iK m
they elected. The result was defeat to themselves
and success to the business men.the men who pay
three-fourths of the town tates,, the genuine la.
ooring men. Dir. Herring made a good officer J

live to his duties as President of the Town Coun
cil, lie made a mistake, however, In setting
himself ap against a large majority of nronertv
owners, turning loose upon the streets herds of
callle, and caused considerable dissatisfaction by
nnPt.tn ...Mt. '
aiivimiuciiui ranue last year. The re
sult of this election cannot be misunderstood. It
says that the elections in this town must be con
ducted on different principles herafter, anil that
when a citizen wants to keen himself at the head
of the council, he must run In the Interest of
the whole town, and not for any particular
clique.

COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PX
A horse belonrlnc to Mr. Jnaonh tlr.l.t, of
near Catawissa, was last Saturday nlgnt taken
from the stable of Mrs. Mull on Main street,
where the animal had been left by a son of Mr
Hrelsh, who tame to town eatly In tieevenlng
The horse was missed when the vounir mm was
ready to start home. Thinking that wrhaps
some one had taken It home by way of a Joke
young llrelsli started homo on foot. Upon go
ing to the stable he did not find the horse.
Saddling up another animal In hot haste lie
rode tip the creek above Geary's mill to his bra

villi to look for the thief, ileturning to town
and securing company, the vounit man Btarted
for Danville, taking the road on this side of the
river. Whei about three miles below town
they overtook the thief and his booty, but was
unable to catch tho man as he took to the woods
through the fields. It Is supposed that the

Hot water is now claimed to be third might
iest the pen first, the sword second, ond then
not water. This scientific discovery has been
made by the Sivage Mining Company, near
Virgins City, and it is likely to early havs a
pract'eal lest applied to It. It'seeon a little un
pleasantness be'ween the above-named Company
and one known as Sullro, and the. litter have a
body of armed men In revliocss to defend their
rights, homes, altars, fires!de, etc., while the
Savage Company propose to tight their oppo.
nenls with a judicious distribution of hot water
forced by powerful pumps nnd engines. Who
dare say this is not an age of progress nnd civil-.

Instances of marriage resulting from corres
pondence between strangers are frequently
read of, but the Chicago 2K6une tells a differ
ent story about ft pair who, after exchanging
letters, met by appointment in that city. "The
surprise with which she discovered that he,
instead of being 27, tall, dark, and aristocratic,
was 40, stumpy, red headed, fat, and bow leg
ged, was only equalled by tho rapturous amaze
ment with which he discovered that she, in
stead of being willow ly of figure, just 18, with
warm golden hair an opalescent complexion,
nnd blue eyes like limpid lakes, was six feet
one, if she was an inch, 62 if she was a day,
weighing 300 pounds if she did an ounce, and
with no warm yellow or nny other hair of her
own."
Mrs. Mix has the reputation of a miracle
worker in Litchfield County, Conn., nnd wond
erful stones of her powers are told. Sho is
said to cure by tho laying on of hands. Tho
strange thing is that sho will take no pay, bo
lieving that sho has been divinely appointed to
heal the sick, and that sho could effect nothing
if8ho had n merccmry motive. The physi
cians say that her influence is remnrkable, but
ascribe it to tho credulity of her patients. Her
success is usually confined to superstitious per
sons. The Legisliture of Nw Jersey is expected to
pass a bill providing that before justices of the
peace can be commissioned, they must submit
to a through examination, as to moral standing
and fitneai for the position, by a Judge of the
Supreme Court,when if the result is satisfactory,
the commission is issued otherwise it is with
held aod the vacancy duly filled. What a
change would need to come over the spirit of
the dreams of the average ward and township
caucus if such a bill were to pass our Legisla.

tell us that clinging dresses are going slowly,
but surely, out of fashion ; anil that' tied back
dresses have become things of the past. They
have recently earned a bad name from the f tct
that Invettigation has proved that ruiny of the'
women drowned at the wreck of the
Princess Alice owed their utter inabil
ity to help themselves when hflp was giv
en them, to the fact of their being encumbered
with the tight-clinging skirts, which held them
down.
The Court has been making witresses and

a woman who was about to bo buried. 'Pen
ny Dysart is tho wife of John Dysart, a col
ored man living in West Atchison. About
Christina timo Mrs. Dysart was obliged to

about midnight on Tuesday of last week she
seemed todic. On Wednesday friends looked
at the body, condoled with tlio husband and
children and luado preparations for tho fu
neral. On Wednesday night watchers Eat by
the supposed corpse, and Thursday was fixed
a3 the day of burial. On Thursday (ho body
was robed for tho grave nnd placed in tho
coffin. Tho funeral was to tako place at three
o'clock, at which hour tho houso was well
filled with mourning friends. Tlio hcar'o was
waiting at tho door and llie body was soon to
bo borno to its hit resting place.
As tho lid of the cofliu was tlirowujback to
allow a farewell look at tlio body, one visitor
laid her band ou the forehead of tho supposed
dead woman, and, with 11 cry of astonishment
declared that tho body was warm. Physi
cians wcie sent for. They applied tho usual
tests, and said that life still remained. Tlio
bidy was taken from the coffin, remedies and
restoratives were adminisleicd.and tho patient
was soon conscious and sensible, and is in a
fair way of recovery.
