Ci.ai:k, P. M. Between ! and 4 o'clock Wednesday morning of last week, nn immense cave-iu occuied on the Lehigh Valley railroad near Stockton, Luzerne county. The cave in is about 300 feet long and 150 feet wide. Tlnee tracks covered the place of the cave in, but fortunately only two trucks loaded wllh lumber were on them ; these were swallowed up witli the falling enrth. An excursion of several Sunday schools was due that morning, but fortuuatcly the cave in was so early in the morning that they did not reneh that point. Anangements wi re inailu at once for grading around the cave-In, and n new truck will be down in n day or two. The School Furnishing company com. menced operations last week. Everything being new, they could not look for tho machinery to move smoothly, but are high ly pleased at tho result of the first few days work. They have secured a lino moulding s mil ami an expert moulder. The llrst castings tiny mado were so smooth that it required but little dressing before they were ready for use. When oiice thorough, ly in running order they expect to make tho very lliiest castings in such manner is will need uo extra woik of preparation after they once come from tho sand. Any ono having small castings to make would do well to call upon the company for terms, and have all their work done at home, From reliable sources it Is learned that nil tho Lehigh Valley Itailroad olllces will bo removed from Mauch Chunk to Bethlo. hem, and that In a short time tho latter placo will bo tho headquarters for tho transaction of all ofllcial business of tho company. The reason for tho chango Is said to be the long-continued wurlnrc be tween Philadelphia and Bethlehem for theso olllces. General Trnlllc Mupngcr Taylor removes his olllce on the ground that Bethlehem is moro convenient, and u majority of the head men are of tho opln. ion that that place is even better than Phil adelphia, and that all olllces will speedily follow the removal of Mr. Taylor, Mauch Chunk will lose about fifty thousand dollars annually by the removals. Wilkes.Darro Xtut-Ptultr, Ell Burton died at the residence of U B. Itupert on Monday morning last uflvr un illness ofcuvcr.tt weeks.

An autopsy was held on Tuesday nflernoou by Dr. Butter, assisted by Drs. Mclvelvy, Mclteynolds and Buckingham, and tho cause ot death was ascertained to bo cancer in tho sto mach. Mr, Barton was born In this town, and resided hero all Ids life. He married n daughter of tho lato John Pursell, by whom ho had two hildren, and both his wife-ami children died inuuy years ago. Ho was a brother of .Mrs. L, 11. Hupcrt, Caleb Bartou, ElUhr. Barton deccaseo, James llpton, deceased, nnd Mrs. E. Men denhall. Do was a communicant of tho Episcopal church, and for many years has been a faithful member of tho Vestry of St. Paul's. His age was 03 years.

THE COLUMBIAN AND Ann Packer's llclrH. tub rossiniuTt or a new claimant to a (111KAT INHSntTANCE, Tho only contingency by which tho Lc high University can loso tho $0,000,000 to $10,000,000 endowment, and St. Luke's Hospital, Bethlehem, tho $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 legacy from tho Packer estate Is tho birth ot nn heir. This possibility has been quietly talked nbout tho past week. Tho whisper was that the lato Asa Pack cr's only surviving child, now Mrs. Charles H. Cummlngs of New York City, expects shortly to glvo birth to nn heir to the great Prckcr estates. Such an event has been wholly unlookcd for. Tlio trustees of tho University, with a copy of Judge Packer's will locked up In their vaults, havo possessed their souls with patience and looked forward to tho day when their Institution should bo ns rich as any sent of IcarnlLg In tho land, nnd frco to all nin bilious youths who should succeed In pass Ing the necessary preliminary examination. When Asa Packer died, on May 17, 1879, his wife, his two sons, Robert A. nnd Harry E. Packer, and his daughter, Mary Hannah Packer, wcro still living. First .Mrs. Packer died and then tho boys follow ed In quick succession, leaving Miss Pack' er to Inherit tho entire fortune, over one- half of which Is entailed. Miss Packer was then on tho fliaily side of 40 years ot age, and It was not deemed likely that she would ever marry, moro es pecially as her brother Hnrry had strenu ously opposed her wedding Mr. Cummlngs, a Lehigh Valley Itailroad employee, who had been paying her somo attention. Even after her marriage tho residuary legatees wcro not disturbed. The contingency of an heir was so remote an to receive little con sldcrntlon, nnd that the money would ul tlmntely como to the University nnd the Hospital was thought to bo next to certain, The will of the late Judge Packer was a very voluminous document. Thoilcceascd had come to Pennsylvania from Connect lent on foot in 1823, and ho had found here a fortune. It was no wonder, there fore, that having acquired this wealth by hard labor, energy nnd perseverance, he should be careful in the disposition of it He llrst named tlvo trustees Ida two 9on, Ellsha P. Wilbur and Hubert II, Sayre, of Bethlehem, and tho President of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Co , which road ho built and of which he was the largest stockholder. Every bit of his property wa3 left to them In trust, though he stipulated that they should give to his wife whatever amount she should select, to be hers absolutely. Ills Mauch Chunk mansion was left for the use of his chll dren, but nt their death and the death of their heirs it was to go back to the trus- tees. To the Philadelphia Divinity school he left $33,500, nnd to the St. Mark's Pro- testant Episcopal church, .Mauch Chunk, a like amount. To tho Lehigh University he bequeathed $1,500,000; to the Lucy Packer Lindermann Library, a memorial erected on the University grounds to his deceased daughter, $500,000, and to the St. Luke's Hospital, Bethlehem, Pa., $300,000. To each of his three children ho left an income of $20,000 annually and a provls ion that tho residue of his estate, after pay ing a number of private bequests, be ll- vided equally between them. Each was permitted to dispose of one-half his or her share by will, but tho other half was to be retained at the death of tho last survivor by the trustees, who should divide the es. tates then In their hands into three equal parts, giiing one-third to the children of Judge Packer's daughter, the late Mrs. Lindermnn; ono to his nephews and neices, nnd tho other to the Lehigh University nnd St. Luke's Hospital, Bethlehem, in the pro portion of his previous bequests to those institutions. It is estimated that this one third, had Mary Packer Cummlngs died chillless, would have amounted to $3,000, 000 or $9,000,000. Judge Packer's son Hobert was twico married, but never had any children. Harry Packer also died childless, and If his sister had followed his advice she would never have married, anil the Uni vcifclly's rich eudowiuent would have been a ceitainty. Mr. Cummlngs, however, who was at one time conductor on tho Lehigh Valley Railroad, and who worked himself up from that post to the position lie now oc cuples of General Eastern Passenger agent, wllh nn olllce in New York, met with fa vor in Miss Packet's eyes, and about eighteen months ago she became his wife. An elTort was made to oust Mr. Cum mlngs from Ids place somo months before lii3 engagement to Miss Packer v. as an nounced, but she asserted her authority, and ns tho controlling power in tho Lehigh Valley Railroad company her word was law, Mrs. Cummlngs is now erecting a hand some chapel in the University grounds as a inemoil'd to tho deceased members of her family. llucltliorii.

DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA. A Mlncr'H Crime. XnWAltD PATLIS9, OP NANTlOOKE, FATALLY SHOOTS 1119 ACCUSED WIFE. For sovcral weeks past Nantlcoko has been anticipating sensational developments from tho alleged criminal Intimacy of Charlotte Bayllss, n pretty married woman, with John P. Puckey, a well-known citizen, until recently tho tlme-kecpci of tho Sus quehanna Coal Co. Thursday morning the sensation came In tho fatal shooting nt tho woman by her husband, Edward Bay ltss, a miner. Tho crime, committed nt Bayllss' homo about 2 o'clock, was described by lliciwo-' man while conscious Thursday morning. lu substance it Is that she had placed her four children In bed nt an early hour, and shortly after retired herself, followed soon by her husband, who had been of a moro pleasant mood than for jcvcrnl evenings past. Both soon passed Into sleep, from which she was awakened by her husband about liSO o'clock. Ho begin to question her nbout her relations with Puckey, who on Monday of last week was bound over before a Wllkcs-Barre magistrate to nn swer the charge of adultery nt tho distance of the injured husband. Ho coaxed nnd urged and thtcntcned, but she absolutely refused to state anything, faying she would prefer having her throat cut from car to car than to open her mouth on the matter. The husband then said ho would kill her If she did not answer, and she, becoming nlarmed, got out of bed to escape from the room. As she did so Bayllss reached out of bed, and grasping a ready revolver fired at her, the shot striking her light check and glancing off through tho forehead. She rushed for tho stairway. Tho second shot was fired, stilklug her in tho left side (if the back and lodging above, close to the heart, producing a fatal wound. Tho ball was eUructed. It will of tidily twocallbio The wounded woman ran out ot tho house to a nclihlmi'i, and, with the cry of ".Mur der!" sunk helpless on the porch, clothed only In hi r nightdress. Tho murderous husband followed in his underclothes nud then disappeared. Presently, howuvcr, he returned to tho house and gave himself up to an olllcer. He bad while nbscnt thrown away (he revolver. He admitted the shoot ing, and In no wav seemed to rctrret it. IIj is i.ow lodged In prison nt Wilkes Ba-ie.

V!lIlt II MltttlllCHH Mllll TllillUH Cll tlie l'oiiiiNjlviuila Limited. From the New York Times. "I have just finished one of the plcasant cst railway trips I have ever had," said a prominent merchant, as he alighted from the Pennsjlvnnia Limited nt Jersey City last evening. "I had no idea," he conlin tied, "that the railroad people had reduced the art of travel to such perfection. A business trip becomes a meiry holiday, full of comfort, pleostne, nnd good cheer. "I received a telegram at my house, up town, Tuesday morning, nt 7.30 a. m. urging my presence in Chicago by noon of Wednesday, if it were possible to accom plish the journey In that time- It seemed almost Impracticable, but I remembered that the Limited left New York at 9.00 n, m., and hastily packing my bag, started for Desbrosscs Street Ferry without wait ing for breakfast. The train left Jersey City at 9.15, and as it whirled over the meadows, I sought the dining car nudseat ed myself at a neat nud tlowtr-adorued table, where I enjoyed u delightful break fast of all the delicacies of the season, ad mirably cooked, nnd served with scrupu lous neatness. Tho sensation of taking a meal while Hying onwaid nt tho rate of forty-five miles an hour is not only novel, but appetizing. The smoking car, with its luxurious sofas and case-giving rattan chairs, I found to be a most comfortable upartmeut, and ufler reading the morning paper, 1 joined a party at cards, and tho houisllew by so swiftly that wc had stop ped at Philadelphia and Ilarrisburg and were rolling along the banks of tho Juniata before wo realized that wo had traveled nearly three hundred miles. The view from the car windows cnirrossed our nltcn tlon from this time until the curtain of night fell on the scene. This section of the route abounds in the most beautiful scenery Imaginable. The road lies through and over the Allegheny Mountains, nnd after following the banks of tho blue Jun lata for many miles, tho actual climbing of the mountains begins a short distance east ofiMtoona Our third stop of live min utes was made at Alloona, after lmv- lug completed on uninterrupted run o-; one hundred and thirty-two miles. The most magnificent portion of tho route from a soeiilc standpoint lies beyond Altoona, where tho grand sweep of the Horse Shoe Curve, nnd the subsequent ascent of Alle gtlppus,reveals somu of tho wildest scenery in America. Wo viewed this just beforo sunset, when all the mountains wcro bath. ed, ns tho poets say, In glory. It was u grand sight. "Tho dinner, served about this hour, was excellent, and comprised in the menu every thing ono could expect nt a flrst-c'ass New lork restaurant. All tho meats ami vegc- tables are cooked as they are ordered, and cooked well,. too, "Another short stop at Pittsburg, nnd one at Alliance, is the last that I rcmcm. ber, as l turned in about tills time, and when I awakened tho next morning wo were somewhere between Fort Wnyno and Chicago. I could not resist the temptation to tuko breakfast on tho Limited, which was hardly finished beforo tho tialu come to its final stop in the Union Depot, Chi cago. This was 9.30, twcnty.four hours and a half after leaIng New York. I felt as fresh as a daisy, met my appointment, loafed around an hour or so with friends, took tho East-bound train nt 5 that after noon, and here I am back in New York at 0.55 p. m. Thursday. Isn't that business ? Not only business but pleasure, I can as sure you, for I feel us It I had enjoyed a regular, old-fashioned boy's holiday, "I hopo I havo not bored you with this enthusiastic recital, and thluk you might writo it up for tho benefit of those who travel.

A STATE (lKOLOCIlST'S 1NVESTIOATION INTO THE ACCIDENT nY WHICH SEVEIIAL MEN rEIHSIlKI). IlAitmsntino, Jufy 8. Governor Paulson has received from Charles A. Ashburncr, geologist In chnrgo at Philadelphia, s let ter In rcsponso to ono from O. M, Williams from Wllkcs-Unrre, Mine Inspector of the Middle district, regarding tho petition of ccrtnln miners and their wives nt Nantlcoko, entreating the Govcrnrr to nppolnt a Com mission to Investigate tho disaster nt that place. Mr. Ashburncr says ho mado careful In vestigation some timo ago of the causes which led to tho Nantlcoko disaster, nnd that a report thereon will bo published In tho nnnual report of tho progress of Geo. logical Survey now In tho hands of tho State Printer. The following extracts from his report, embodying tho gcologUt's views on .the subject, nro givcni "A re view of all the foots bearing upon tho care with which mining in tho vicinity of the Nnnticoke cnvc-ln has been prosecuted by tho Susquehanna Coal Co., conclusively proves that the accident was unavoidable, and could never havo been anticipated by any measures which tho company could havo with reason adopted. This company ha9 been untiring in adopting every means to rescue tho tmpilsoned miners, and, ns far as I am Infoimcd from public records nnd from my personal knowlcdgo of other mining accidents, no company in the an thracite region has exercised care In pre venting accidents which might involvo the lives of the miners, nnd has been more prompt and generous In all Its cffoits to relievo tho unfortunate, than tho Susque. hanna Coal Company. I have mndo tills statement after a thorough investigation of the circumstances attending tho accident, since In spmo of tho published accounts nt tho time the accident took place It was charged to Ignorance on the pnrt of the management of tho Company ns to the proper support to glvo the rocks and tho coal culm on tho top of tho surface over lying the coal bed." Mr. Ashburncr do- scribes tho measures that were taken im mediately after tho accident to relievo the imprisoned miners, and continuing says : "I am thoroughly convinced that tho same force which, within nn hour brougnt material from tho 'cavern' out to the mouth of the tunnel opening into slope No. 2, car- rled similar material wllhln a much short er time to rooms south and west of the cave-in in which the imprisoned miners were supposed to have been at tho time the accident took place, and I believe that all the men there entrapped were doubtless dead Insido of an hour. It is unnecessary to review in this placo tho facts and circum stances connected with tho accident which led me to this conclusion." In conclusion Mr. Ashburncr says : "I consider It the height of folly to suppose for n moment that any of the Imprisoned miners are now living, ns set forth in tho petition, and aside from the very great expenso which would bo involved in any effort to disinter the bodies of tho miners I consider that such nn undertaking would bo very hazar dous and tho lives of any relief parties would lie unnccessurily and unwarrantedly imperiled." MlceclIiiK tlie i-'hrmcr. There is no other industrial pursuit than agriculture which is so burdened with al leged improvements for which patents lmve boon secured. The farmer's soul is seized with claims of royalties from nn endless vat iety of people ho demand money for devices for which patents havo beeu se cured unjustly. Fences, wells, churns, gates, harrows, devices and n great variety of simple tools and devices which are used by farmers and even methods of pruning. laying down trees and vines for Winter protection, and now an old method of making drains, have been patented nnd the use of them is denied to the public. The worst of it is that tho majority of the claimants are farmers themselves, and do their best to tax their brother farmers with out nny adequate return being made, nnd moreover it causes and encourages litiga tion nnd wastes hardened money. 'Ibis Is a matter which needs reforming, and farm crs should combine to insist upon n deliv- cranco from tills irritating and costly nuisance. Vic. Tlie I--oiirtli i( liiiuvllle.

Tlio Ohurch Festival. As thin is tho dcfison of vciir for fes tivals, I thouulit pcrlnpH n fow words on that subject trom ono not on tho commilteo might bo ncccplablo to your readers. Tho wlso man says, "Lo, this only have I lound, that God hath modo man upright) hut thoy havo sought out ninny inventions. Tlioclmroli Icslival I presume is ono of them. Tho con junction connecting tho two clauses in tho sentenco quoted above, seems to my benighted mind to imply opposi tion of moaning. That is, that man's inventions in oortain oases do not mako or keep a man upright. mat tlio lertival is man's invention, I think will bo conceded, .unless it hns a still worso oiigiu,) from tho fact thnt wo find no warrant or mention of any thing of tho kind in tho Scripture. Tho Prophet Eltsha sceim to have had no thought of any thing of that kind, when ho catno to Gilgal in timo of a dearth, and found tho sons of the prophets m want of food. Thoro was a case whoio certain ladies of uncertain ago might havo found most congenial employment in getting up a festival t .i r: ir iui uiuDU ueui BeilSilcilllcillL yuuilg moil, if tho prophet had intimated that such service would bo acceptable. Hut tho prophet takes a moro prosaic plan to satisfy their imincdiato wants. Uo said to Ins servants set on tho great pot and seethe pottago for tho sons of tho prophets." 1 do not proteas to bo an interpreter of scripture narratives, but I suppose, inose sons oi tno propnets were young men preparing to teach in tho ancient Jewish church, and that Elislia was their principal instructor. Had those students and their instructor lived in our day, and been in such reduced cir cumstances, no doubt somo would bo philanthropist would navo gotten up a festivnl or charity ball for their benefit. A man from lJaal-shalisha followed. what I conccivo to be tho scriptural plan and broucht them "tho first fruits of his baiioy, and full cars of corn, jio nubbins, aud gavo tlio stu dents a teast. Uo did not wait for tlio meager or doubtful proceeds of a festi val to supply their wants. Again tho students found tho placo where tht-v dwelt too strait for them. And thoy proposed not a charity ball or a festival, but that they "go to Jor dan, and takn thence every man a beam, and lot us make us a placo there, where wo may dwell. 1 do not, wish it to be understood, that I object to the church building houses for tho ac commodation of theological students. What 1 condemn is, rcsortinc to un- scriptural methods for securing tho means. Let men give as did tho man from IJaal-shalisha of tho first fruits of his increase. Tho wiso man sais. "Honor tho Lord with thy substance, aud the first fruits of thy increase, so shall thy barns bo filled with plenty and thy presses burst out with new wine. xou will lue to hunt a long timo beforo vou find any such encouragement for either buying or selling ice cream or peanuts at a festival. An aroument frequently mado uso of in defenoo of church fcstivnls is, that it draws a ceitain amount of mon ov from those who otherwise would not civo any thine. This mav look justifiable, but I think wo havo uo warrant lor such procedure. When Moses wished to raise means for the building of the Tabernacle, "he spako unto tho children of Israel, say ing, this is tho thing which tho Lord commanded, take yo from among you an oltenng unto tho Lord, whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering unto tho Lord, gold, silver ete." If instead of tho above, wo were to find it recorded, "And Moses spako unto tho ci ildren of Israel, saying pro pare yo now a oreat festival. Let overy ono bring in such things as arc lair to look upon and pleasant lo the taste; and sco yo to it, that it exceeds m abundance .mil variety any tinner cvor known among the heathen that aro around about us. And moreover wo will send out of tho fairest, of our maidens to bccuilo tho sons of tho Am- orites, and tho Cananites, and tho Hit tiles to como and buy of our dainties ; so that wo may securo help of those who otherwise would givo nothing to ward tho good work.' It wo wore to find soincthinc liko tho above, wo would bo inclined to exclaim why Mosef, thou art an old sclioiner !'' If wo think such work would look a littlo tricky, if it woro donn by Moses or tho prophets, how think you dots it look for men under tho Christian dis pensation lint wo look in vain for anv such scripture precedent. Tho only thing I have been ablo to tind m Scrmture. that called to mind the modem church festival, is when our Saviour found in tho templo thoso that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and tho changers of money sitting. If tho proceeds of tlinso sales wcro to be used with service of tho Tempi?, it would look very much I1KU U ll'UVill, Whatever may havo been tho obiect of thoso sales, tho offense seems to havo been making the templo a houso of merchandise "and when ho had mado a scourgo of small cords, Ho drovo them all out of tho temple, and tho sheep and tho oxen ; and poured out tno changers money and overthrow tho tables ; and said unto them that sold doves, "take theso things hence; inako not my lathers houso a houso of merchandise." vrnuincr it would Do tho proper tiling at tno present day lor somo good citizon to tako a cat-o'-nine-tails, nnd drive those speculators out of tho or away from tho church is a question, I do not propose to decide; but I suggest thoso wishing to get money for benov olent purposes by selling oakes, caudv. peanuts or beer, that thoy open a con fectionery or restaurant, tako out a licenco and do a legitimate business. and not bring reproach upon tho causo tney aro aiming to benefit.
