I The recent heavy rains caused an almost
unprecedented flood in the Susquehanna
1 and Juniata rivers, Involving the distruction
j of a vast amount of property at Williams
i port and other places along the West Branch
as well as at Tyrone and other points on the
(Juniati. No loss of life Is reported except
at Duncannon, some miles west of Harris
burg, where the Pennsylvania railroad
crosses Sherman's creek, which empties into
l the Susquehanna at tnat place. One of the
piers of the bridge having been weakened
by the foice of the flood, gave way on Mon
, day night. Just as the train known as the
Huntingdon local was crossing, precipitating
1 eight ore dumps and the engine iuto the
i creek, causing a loss of three lives, viz : K.
M. Turbetf, brakeman ; T. C. Baldwin, the
conductor, and A. McCachron, bis assistant.
All the unfortunate men were from Hunt

railroad had to be transferred east and west

, the accident, and great delay was occasioned
in the running of trains.

Attempt to Wrerk I.lmltel F.xprea.
On Friday evening or last, week an attempt '

of ties were placed on the track and were '
struck by the locomotive, but fortunately
were thrown off without derailing the train.
After the train had passed the ties were ;
again placed on the track, but were discov-
ered before being run into. It is to be
hoped that the parties who placed the ob
struction on the track and imperrllled the ,
lives of trainmen and passengers maybe
caught and a long term of Imprisonment
meted out to them.

rORTAGE, Jao. 5, 1886.
Editor Fueemas Trusting that a few
lines from this quarter will be of interest to
many readers, the wiiter pens the following :
On the evening of New Year's day Patrick
Moran. aged about seventeen years, who for
a number of years had been staying with
the family of the late Patrick Reilly, near
Portage, attended a reverie at tbe Cambria
House. Wiimore. and, it is said, became
slightly intoxicated. Where he obtained
the means by which his mental powers were
thus dethroned is tot known to the writer,
hut the probability is that some readers of
the Freeman could conjecture with a very
considerable decree of certainty. At what
time younp Moran left for home is a mystery.
It is known, however, that he was at the
partv as late as eleven o'clock New Year's
night. The next morning, between the
hours of ten and eleven, he was found lying
at the foot of a high embankment in front of
Mr. John McGovein's house, Wiimore, in

but all to no purpose. He lay lingering be

day morning, when death put ao end to his
agonies. Whether young Moran ascended

j ever may have any thoughts to offer on the
I subject at hand. Th meetings have been
j well attended by interested and appreciative
! audiences. The question, "Kesoived that
I Country Life is preferable to City Life,"
was debated at the meeting on the'riOth ult.,
and In view of the arguments produced, the
, judges decided in favor of the affirmative.
In any community that can hope to be pro
, gressive, there must be refining and elevat
j ing influences to counteract the many retro
I giesslve tendencies incident to lives that
must be engaged in constant toil in order to
j provide for worldly wants. The church,
i the school, and the press supply some of
j these needed irfluences. but then there is a
' side of man's nature rot reached by any of
these which can only be reached by the ly
: ceum, or some kindred institution. It was
to supply a much felt want that such an
organization was formed In our midst. T.

wll This district has secured the services of i
mi. ininn i ooer ana jonn II. Uh rmi lorsev
al years, and no more enthusiastic and earnest
teachers are found at.ywhere. The bouses In the
district are all lair buildings, but the furniture
Is uneomlortable and not adapted to the wants oT
the pupils, (iood patent lurniture would add
much to the comfort and advancement of the
schools. This district has also provided suitable
bells for ech house, the only country district
where be Is are placed on the buildings.
Physiology Is tauht in the schools to some ex
tent, but suitable books have not been provided
tor the pupils ol some ol the schools. In many
school rooms suitable mottoes, pictures, e'e
were displayed by teachers and pupils, and the
school rooms presented a cheerlnl t.n.ar.,
These things ao far toward securing order ami
obedience Irom pupils. From observations an. I
notes taken we fonnd about 60 tier cent r,t k.
" y veuiimieu. it is a mc.tter el too ;
much neglected. Teachers and pupils connot do
good work In the school room where Impure at- I
inosphere prevails, yet In some Instances no pro
visions are made for ventilation. Severn I la i lures '
In teaching hate been reported during the month I
and several resignations have taken place i
Where no attention Is Riven to proper discipline i
and the laws of grverning power, failures goner- I
ally o-enr. In several distric's comphnril Is '
made that teachers do not keep their schools open
regularly and that schools sutler Irom such irreg '
ulaiity. Teachers certainly Minuld never close i
their schools or lose time miles it cannot be i
avoided, and it should las the dutv of directors to '
report such to their board who neglect tnelr duty, i
The term is short enough, and teachers, directors
pupils and parents should use every possible !
means to make the most from the work of lur I
schools. i

To Gratify His Wife
A (iood Reason for Ilapplnen.
'For many years I bad suffered from a tJom
plaint which the tihyalciana call JraveI. I had
employed some of the most noted doctors without
j obtaininK any permanent relief, and lor a Ions.
i time my case was regarded as hopeless. All who
knew the eircumstane. a said 1 must die. Finally
my wife Indnced me to try a bottle ot Dr. Kenne
dy's 'Favorite Keraj,' which she had some
where heard of or seen advertised. Wlthont the
slightest faith In It. hut aololyto irratlfv tier T
i bouirht a bottle of a dmziost in our Tillage. I
i used that and two or three bottles more, and to
mnke a lonit story short I am now as healthy a
man as there is In the country.
Since tin n I have recommended 'Favorite
I Kemeny' to others whom I knew to have suffered
from Kidney and I.iver complaints : and I assure
! thepnt'tlc that the Favorite Kemedy' has done
Its work with a similar completeness in every sin
gle Instance, and I trust some other sick and dis
couraged mort il may hear of it and try the ' Fa
vorite Kemedy.' as 1 did." Wanhitwtnn Monroe,
