A Lkax I'm. Last fall Mr. Chris Baup
living near Turbiilvllle, Pa., threshed some
wheat for planting, nnd built a stuck of the
straw In the yard. About this time u young
pig was missed by Mr. Itaup. Search was
made high nnd low, but no hog could be
found, and It tliuilly was given up ns either
lost or stolen. Nothing developed in the
case until n shoit lime ngo, when some
children, who were playing around the
stack, saw the living skeleton of n hog
crawl out of the straw. The brute was lit-
orally nothing but skin nnd bone, nnd wns
so ravenous and hungry that It ran for the
children at once, nnd would have made
meal of them had it caught them. The hog
was entombed In its strange prison just
sixty-six days. It went into tho stack in
the fall a oung pig nnd came out with the
frame of a full grown porker, but so poor
that It hardly bears nny bemblnnce of Its
former shape. It Is being cured for. Its
rations nro one pint of milk and ono peck
of oats per day. The hog has excited much
curiosity in the vicinity of Mr. Haup'
place, nnd more people have called to see
tho beast than would go to the same amount
of trouble to see Dr. Tanner, were he to re.
peat his remarkable fust In Turbutville.

Rtmlved. Thnt tho exnenscs of fuel,

for them to pav nt now lull. The Com-
miesioticra think Itliat tho prisoners can bo
kept nt the old Jail with less expense than
they can nt new jail, nnd that the new jail
should be condemned."
It Is n lamentable fact that the new jail
was built on ground to gratify a few sel
fish and designing Indlyldiials, In n bung
ling, careless and fraudulent manner. The
rooting, plastering, plumbing nnd drainage
nt tills early day all requiring to be done
over ngnln, and drainage as presently lo-
cated Is an Impossibility. Until water will
voluntarily flow up hill thcro can bo no
natural drainage from the bog whereon
the new jail stands. Thcro Is, nt tills

one Is costing tlio county nbout twenty

he can be safely kept in the old jail for

After his just debts nnd funeral expenses
nro paid, lie directs all of Ids property, real,

cr, nnd the trustees of the Lehigh Universi
ty. The witnesses nro C. O. Speer, Allen

takes from the half sharo given thu Lehigh
University, 50,000, to be given with no-
cumulated Interest to his ndoptcd daughter,
Sarah Gertrude Packer, when she shall ar-
rive at the ago of twenty-one years. The
executors nre his wife, H. A. Elmer, of

In May, 1882, Mr. Packer made n will, in
which ho gave $40,000 for the erection of
an Episcopal Church nt Sayre,
nnd the in-1
come of $30,000 to pay thu rector's snlnry,
but this will was afterwards cancelled by
him. The amount giren to the Lehigh

Some of our farmers feel somewhat out

this placo selling a "new kind" of pota

claiming that ho wns Vick's agent, nnd
thnt the potatoes were to come fiom Vick.
Within a mile of where he sold the pota
toes, ho bought them. The farmers mis
trusting that they might buy their neigh
bor's potatoes of this man at the rate of
$15 per bushel, while they could buy
them of the neighbor himself for 00 cents
per bushel, wrote to Vick, who answered
saying that hu lias no agents and anything
sold by agents as being from him is a
fraud. Bobbins, the agent, had better
never try to deliver tlio potatoes which are
ordered by our men, or he might get
"Hopped." PiXAVom:.
