A tramp who had bothered n Rldgcwood,

vowed that unless his request was complied
with ho would not leave tho premises. Tho
Woman became somewhat nervous nt tho
bold stand of tho stranger, and decided to
put him to work cleaning an unused well.
A bucket and rope were procured, and at
the tramp's request ho was carefully lower
cd into the well. Tho pall was then quick
ly drawn to the surface, under tho pretence
that tools were to be let down In It; but
tho tools were not forthcoming, nnd tho
tramp, after vainly shivering In tho water,
which was up to his knees, decided that ho
was the victim of a cute dodge, and await
cd developments. Tho husband, who was
at work, arrived homo in the cvciiing, nnd,
upon being told tlio citciimstnnccs, pro
ceeded to I he well, nud. with the assistance
of his wife, hauled the frightened tramp
to tho surface, when a sound clubbing was
given him, after which he wos allowed to
depart.

Convention.
The Fishlngcrcek Sabbath School Asso.
elation held its second meeting nt Asbury
on Saturday, August 29th. Tho weather
was favorablo and thc attendance good,
considering tho season of the year. Tho
morning session was opened ot half-past
ten by devotional exercises, after which
camo tho enrollment of delegates, followed
by tho appointment of committees. Next
in order wns thc discussion of tlio follow
ing topics by Rev. Houtz, J. C. Bobbins,
Vmos Hnrtman, J. M. Fritz, E. M. Laubacli
and J. Imory.
First topic "What is thc Object of tho
Sunday School ?"
One object of thc Sunday school is to
glvo religious training to the young. It
readies out nnd gathers in many who
would olhcrwlso rccciye no religious train-
ing. Another object is to mako a proper
use of tho Sabbath, such ns attending
church nnd working in thc Lord's vine-
ynrd; nlso to teach tho young to worship
God in song nnd prayer and thc hearing of
God's word. Another object of tho Sab
bath school is to glvo the people a knowl
edge of tho Bible, in order that they may
havo somo ground for their belief. Fi'
nallv. tho grand object of tho Sabbath
school is tlio salvation of souls.
This discussion was followed by music
and adjournment, to meet nt 2 p. m.
The afternoon session was opened at thc
time specified by music, followed by tho
discussion of tho topic, "How Shall wo
Sccuro thc Attendance of Parents and
Children?" First the Sabbath school
should bo made attractive by having good
music, good libraries and intelligent, cam
est teachers. Parents should bo shown
that It is their duty not only to send their
children, but to go with them. This may
be done by thc ofilccrs and teachers, and
also by tlio pastor speaking on tho subject
occasionally from the pulpit. Tills was
followed by tho discussion of thc subject,
How Shall wo Raise Money to Support
tlio Sabbatli School ?" Tho first step is to
convince the peopio that money Is neccs
sary, and that It is their duty to support
the Sabbatli school. The Sunday school
beais thc samo relation to tho church that
tho child docs to the parent, and it is ns
much tho duty of tho church to support
thc Sabbath school, as it is for parents to
supply the temporal wants of their chll
drcn. In order to meet tho demand for
money for tho support of tho Sunday
school a collection might Jio lifted every
Sabbath, or the money raised by subscrip
tion: nnd if not successful, then resort 11
nally to festivals, but if we must do this,
let us havo nothing objectionable, such as
lotteries, grab.bags, or gamblng in any
form.
Fourth discussion. "How can Sabbatli
School Teachers bo Improved ?" Tho only
wav to do this Is to ralso the standard of
Intelllgonco among our people, lho teach'
cr should carefully prepare tho lefson,uslng
all tho helps available; always be regular.
take their places with their classes, bo sin
cere and earnest, yet simple, in teaching,
Using such illustrations ns tlio pupils aro
familiar with. Following this camo tlio
discussion of the subject, "Memorizing
tho Scriptures."
Punlls should bo taught to memorizes
Scripture, not for reward, but for tho Influ
ence it will havo In moulding their future,
and in making them better men nud wom
en. What wo learn of tho word of God in
youth, will bo of great benefit to us when
wo grow older. It will nlso be a safe
guard ogaiust temptation, for with
tho temptation comes thronging to
to our memory tho words of Holy Writ,
nud wo nro enabled to resist, where other
wise wo might havo yielded. Tlio next
subject for discussion was "Sabbath School
Music."
Good music is inspiring. By It our
soul's are wnftcd heavenward. Wo should
bo very careful in tho selection of music
for the Sunday school. It should all bo
lu harmony with the teaching of God's
word. It should also be universal, all
should sing, ns this Is ono form of worship,
Tho last subject for discussion was, "Ho.
wards in Sabbath School." Ou this sub
ject it was said that it an institution can
not stand on lis own merits, it had better
fall. Children should bo taught that tho
reward will consist In u knowledge of duty
performed, and in the influence for good,
tho instruction there received will havo on
their future life. Tho exercises wcro in
terspersed with appropriate music, Miss
Miriam Mcllcnry, organist. After tlio
slugiug of tho doxology and repeating the
Lord's prayer in concert, tho Convention
adjourned to meet nt tho Christian church
at Stillwater, tho time to bo appointed by
tho Executive Committee.
Tho nbovo Is a synopsis of tho proceed-
tugs of the Convention. The peopio of
Asbury nnd vicinity will plcaso accept
thanks for kindness and hospitality shown.
Tho only thing to be regretted was the non
attendance of tho ministers residing lu
Columbia county, none ot whom (except
ing Rev. Houtz, who is n model of punc-
tuallty,) wcro present. "My brethren
these things ought not so to bo."

to the part affected. Tho Ice should be ns

This remedy Is said to banish nil pain until
tlio mixturo has to far melted that a fresh

The HlHtrlct Attorncfllilp.
Tho resignation ot District attorney
Buckingham created a vacancy in that of.
cc that has been filled by tho appointment
of tho court. Tho appointee will hold on
ly until the next general election In No
vember, when tho peopio will elect an ofil-
ccr who will hold for thrco years. This
throws the election ot Sheriff and District
Attorney on tho Bamo years hereafter, and
it is a favorable chongn. Heretofore tiicsc
officers havo each been obliged to bear
nlono tho expenso of tho conventions that
nominated them, nnd this bos been n heavy
burden to be borno by one man. This new
arrangement will enable candidates for
these positions to divide thc expenses, and
it may sometimes happen that there will be
no occasion for a convention.
On Wednesday morning F. P. Billmcycr,
Esq., was appointed by tho Judges as Dis
trict Attorney until tlio placo can be filled

Deputy Collector Appointed.
On Friday last Robert Buckingham Esq.,
for tho pnst two years District Attorney of
this county, was appointed Deputy Collec
tor of Internal revenue by Collector Sta
ples. Ills district embraces Columbia,
Montour, Union and Northumberland coun
ties, nnd bond Is required In tlio sum of
5,000. On Monday Mr. Buckingham re
signed tho office of District Attorney, nnd on
Tuesday was sworn in as Deputy Collec
tor. He Is well qualified for thc position,
and his party services, If they are to bo
taken in account in thc matter, entitle him
to this recognition. Just ns much could bo
said of his compctltor,but Mr. Buckingham
seemed to hold tho winning card, and his
upplntmcnt is gracefully acquiesced In by
all who favored Mr. Mcllcnry.
The foolish story started nt Wllkcsbarro
that Buckingham's appointment was a blow
at Mr. Buckalcw has no foundation in fact,
and was manufactured by a republican
newspaper to create dissension in thc par
ty it possible. Thoso who know tho
truth, smile at such reports.

low. But the landings are cut
at the ends at such an angle that
the thrust of the flight of steps
above (if there is any thrust) is
directed against the octagonal
wall. And, strange as it may
seem, that landing rests so far
upon the wall around two angles
that it wouldn't stir if the steps
below it were taken away and
the weight of the wall above
were taken away. The landings
are firm on the wall aswellasm
the wall. The steps are firm in
the wall and rest on the landings
besides. To the untaught eye
thc weakest part of the' stair is
the landing. It really is the
strongest part of the whole. If
any part of the stair supports
