claim the victory, but the MoU party Ulk
of having the matter looked into through
the courts. The legetimacy ot proxies and

A German, who gave his name ss j
Miller, and hailing from Harrisbuig.came
to lbs house of Jonathan Spangler, in i
Brushvalley a week ago, where he took j
sick and died. He was about t& years of ;
age, and bs been in this country about
six years. He said that he was ou his wsy
to Penn'a Furnace in pursuit of work.
This information as to himself he gave
while stopping over night at Mr.
Luce's, a tew days before. At Mr. Spang
ler's be was questioned as to his residence
and relatives, but gave no information
* upon these points. He was buried at

A concert by the WalnutGrovemu
aic class under the instruction of Prof.
kP. Meyer, 2 miles east of Boalsburg, on
Saturday evening, 6, was a decided sue
cess, and did credit to the professor and
the class which was under his charge this
winter. The music was appropriate, the
selections good and admirably performed,
to tbe satisfaction of a crowded audience-
Mr. John Boozer, of this place, met
with a serious accident on Thursday,
while attending Mrs. Boss' sale, a few
miles east of here. He was on the mow
and; tramped upon a board which lilted
and ho fell through to the floor below,
some six feet, sustaining a dislocation of
the ankle joint and a double fracture of
the bone outside ef the leg,—namely, of
the external malealus and of the fibula
about three inches above the foot.
The reputation ofSechler & Co., for
keeping the handsomest grocery, in
Bellefonte, keeps spreading with every
package of goods they seud out—their
goods are fresh, first quality, and what is
of greatest importance in these tight times,
their groceries are sold so remarkably low,
that people talk about it, and wonder how
it comes. If you wmt a floe article often,
coffee, syrup, dried or canned fruit*,

tioned, his quick and accurate conception
of the matters in controversy, end his
prompt but courteous manner in giving his
opinions were fully recognized and ap
predated by our attorneys and others who
bad business before him. A man with the

, At Sea in an Open Boat— Murder
J And Cannibalism.
~ ) [fVsVnrf <\f Wir ]
We have received intelligence froiis Ha
4 , jtavia regarding the sufferings of some of
I the sur\ iv.>r from the British ship Kuxine.
'• hound fromShialds to Aden, which caught
8I Are and waabandoned in the South At
H lanlic. On the 12th of June last the iron
• ship Kuxine sailed from Shields with a
e cargo of coal and a crew ol thirty-two men
e and excellent provisions Everything
went well till the 3d of August, on which
J .tale a storm tossed the vessel about so vi
olently that her Cargo was shifted to the
I starboard side, ona man was washed over
! board. And c nsiderable damage done to
j t-ie sails and rigging All eniieavors to
I' right her were fruitless, and after large
quantities of the coal had been thrown
I overboard, traees ot tire were discovered.
Although every hatch and opening was
Jc'osed as ligthtly as possible, the flames
j made such headway that on the Hlh of the
j same month the captain decided on aband
j oning Ins ship. Those living freight left
in three boats—the captain ai d thirteen
men in the long-boat, the first mate and
eight others in the second, and the second
I male and seven seamen in the third. It
I was known that St Helena was S6O miles
I distant, and it was determined to make
I' for the island. During the first night the
boat commanded by the second mate lost
■ sight ot the others, and at dawn was alone
upon the wide ocean The little vessel
[was upon the life boat principle, about
thirty feet long, her sides being protected
with a bulwark of sailcloth. She had ten
air-light cases, two uiasls, besides a fore
booin, and carried a set of sails and ne*
I cessarv cordage Tne provisions couipris
| ed tw i cases of buscuiU, a barn, a cheese,
I twelve tins *>f meat, and two tmail casks
jof drinking water By the ninth day the
I mate came to the conclusion that he nad
been steering too far to the westward, but
as the wind and sea did not admit of any
change being made, it was decided to go
on as heretofore, in the hope of meeting
with a vessel or reaching the coast of
South America. The rations were di
minished to half a biscuit and a glass of wa-
I ter once a day, and thus the 24th of Au
gust approached with no sign of rescue or I
land. On this date a slit!' breeze sprung
up as darkness drew on, and at midnight,
while a man named De Jager was at the
helm and the rest were asleep, the boat
capsized and its occupants suddenly found
themselves struggling for their lives.
How the accident occured is not known,
but it is surmised that De Jager placed his
charge against the wind, a* it is certain
i that he had already threatened to "knock
a hole in the craft to put an end to the
misery of all." Anyway he "put an end
I to himself and another, named Reynolds,
| both sinking, notwithstanding help ren
dered thetn by their fortunate comrades,
who had found safety on the upturned
keel. In the morning the boat vu right
ed, but all the food was gone. In order
to prevent capsizing in future the mail
wore cut down and only a small sail set, to
that the boat might be steered right be
fore the wind. Hunger and thirst-charac
terized the day—a Sunday—and twenty
four hour* later it was agreed that lots
should be cast to tee which of the num
ber should be sacrificed for the benefit of
the remainder. Early on the same day,
one Muller, after drinking largo quanti
ties of salt water, declared that he offered
hit body as food for the others, and en
treated them to kill him. ''After a time"
—we quote from the affidavit of James
Archer, second mate —"Manus Shurt pro
posed that they sheuld cast lots who should
fall at a sacrifice for keeping the others
alive. To this wc all consented. Having
no other meant to make a lottery, we hit
upon using small sticks of different sizes,
deciding that the one who drew the small
est should be the victim. After having
made the sticks ready. I held them in
my hand while the others drew. On com
paring them together. I found that the
Italian, Francis Shufus, held the small
est stick. Having also agreed that the
lottery should be thrice repeated, and that
when it should then prove that either two
or three of us had drawn the shortest stick,
these should cast lets among themselves,
so that the victim might be singled out,
we found that the same man had for a
second time picked out the same object.
Francis Shufus when bis turn came for the
third drawing, hesitated to join, and would
not draw, upon which the man Sandstrom
proposed be would de it for him. This he
did, and the shortest slick was found in
Sandslrom's hand. Shufus bore it with
the greatest calmness, and showed the ut
most resignation. He was left alone for
some two hours, while we row and then
eagerly looked round the horizon to see
whether a sail could be perceived or any
help would come. We stood upon thf
thwarts. Shufus prepared himself to meet
his fate by praying or speaking in Italian
He gave us no parting message to be scntto
his friends.'moat probably as he knew no
more English than to say "yes" and "no."
His bearing was that of a man whose mind
was made up Seeing we were past help,
and fearing that our hunger and thirst
had grown beyond endurance, we saw
ourselves driven to sacrifice Shufus. He
laid himself down, but before that August
Muller had told hirr that he would take
his place and die for him. This Shufus
refused, and, laying himsolf down in the
bottom of the boat, gave himself up to be
tied ; then one man held an empty tin, so
as to catch the blood. Mulle-, on saying
that now some one must die for the others,
passed the knife sound the man's throat.
He did not struggle or scream. The
blood was drunk by us all. Muller then
cut out his liver and heart These we cut
into small pieces and ate them mixed with
blood ana saltwater. At the last moments
of Shufus I was at the helm. The head
and feet were thrown uway ; the trunk and
limbs were put into one of the air-tight,
tins of our boat, which wo had opened
We continued on our way. It might have
been 2 o'clock in the afternoon when tl e
man Shufus died. Some three hours after
a ship was seen, which, perceiving the
boat, made for us. This vessel turned out
to be the Java packet, bound for
Amsterdam, and her commander, Cap
tain Trappen, did all in hi* power, to re
lieve the misery of the fivo unfortunate
waifs, James Archer, August Muller, Vic
tor Sandstrom, Manus Shurt and Alexan
der Veruienlcn, who had been twenty
, throe days at sea in an open boat, and
sailed fully 2,000 miles.
The pretty story about James Lick, of
Califomis, as igning his immense enlale to
trustees, to be un ii for Various charitable
and benevolent purposes, is all spoiled
again. He took another notion, destroy
ed the papers, and sticks to his dollars
like a miser.
It is now suggested that the Legislature
should make "Ground Hug, day" a legal
holiday. Certainly so good a prophet is

TWO BOYS CRUSHED To DEATH
IN A COAL SCREEN.
Scranton, IV, March 9.—At the Mount
l'leaseiit mine in this city to-day, two
boys, Urury Welsh and John Owens,
were crushed to death in a coal screen.
Both lads were employed in the screen
room with about sixty others, "cracker
boys," separating the slate from the coal.
Welsh was in the act of stepping across
the screen, when his foot was caught in
the ponderous machine, which was re
volving slowly. His cries brought to his
aid his companion, Owens, a boy some
ffftecn years of age, who bravely, in the
face of a fearful (ale, sought to extricate
biiu. In the cffl rt his arm was caught in
the screen' and before the machinery
could be brought to a standstill, both boys
were crushed into a shapeless mass, their
heads and arms severed trom their bodies,
ami altogether presenting a shocking
spec table.
The brave conduct ef the boy Owens,
who gave bis life in the attempt to save his
comrade, it one of the noblest examples
of youthful heroism on record,
MINING TROUBLES.
Maucb Cfcunck, Pa., March Iff. —A lour
of inspection through part of the coal re
gion shows that the miner* still evince the
same determination to hold out for the
IBM basis. They say they can stand it tor
two months and even longer.
The coal at Summit Hill, Asht -n, and
other places is very tcarco, and at Dry
Hollow is loaded in teams and taken to
No. 10 for shipment by rail. The large
shops at Lansford, of the Lehigh and
Wilkosbarre Coal Company, are supplied
with some difficulty. At Besver Meadow
and other colleries coal is very scarce for
the use of miners At Nesquehoning they I
are loading nearly one hundred cart of i
culm daily for shipment to New York.
The mining villages present a very dull !
appearance, and the only work done i
pumping, to keep the mines from being
flooded. The miners, as a general thing, I
seem to have a (air fmounl of ready mon
ey, and their larders are still well stocked.
It will be impossible to state when a re- !
sumption will take place. The operators

A NEGRO ASSASSIN KILLED BY A
WOMAN.
Alexandria, Va., March 9.—The Ga
zette has a report from Fauquier county,
Virginia, to the effect that on Saturday
lost a colored man named Haines went to
the house of hit mistress between Mark*
ham and Pcidmont, and seizing a hatchet
made a murderous assault upon the in
mates, the woman and her two children,
cutting and slashing them terribly. The
woman resitted him, and drove him
the house to a straw rack, where she split
hi* head open with an axe and stretched

THE ICE ON THE LKHIGII
Mauch Chunk, March 12.—From Mauch
Chunk to Katton, where the Lehigh emp
ties into the Delaware river, a distance of
forty-eight miles, there are eight large
dams on the river, and it ts safe to say that
two-'.hird* of that distance is covered with
ice which by actual measurement has been
found to average forty inches in thick
ness.
For some litno it hat keen feared that a
freshet would take place, but the fine
weather of the past week has for the pres
ent dno much towards relieving tho fears
ol residents along the liver. Still the out
look is somewhat precarious, and should
the ice break loose with a rush the dridges
and a large amount of other property will
be destroyed.

HOW THEY DROP SHOT
I A reportei of the UallluioiO American
■ thus describes one of the many pro- esses
of making shot in one of the *bot lower*
jof that city. One of the ".ecrcls" of the
manufacture i* the mixing of the lead with
a certain proportion of a combination ol
mineral suh.tance* called "temper Ihe
I temper is fused with the It-ad, and givethr
i molten uiclai that consistency which
j make* it drop, and without which the iaau
j would be moulded by tit# sieve, and woulu
j form IKtie pencil* instead of round shot.
When "U U ' shot for instance, are to be
made, the lead I* poured into a pan per
forated with hole* corresponding to that
SIX*. The little pellets come pouring down
in a continuous shower, and 'all into a
tank filled with water on the ground floor
In (heir descent of two hundred feel they
become perfect sphere*, firm and dense,]
and they are tolerably cool when they'
strike the water, although tba swift con
cussion-make the tank foam and bubble
as if the water was boiling furiously The!
shot mutt fall in the water, fur if they,
would strike any firm substance they
Would be flattened and knocked out of
shape Two get the little pellet* perfect
ly dry after they have been in the "well," j
i the mo*l difficult and troublesome pro
cess uf the w hoi* manufacture. An eleva
tor with small bucket* (very much like,
those in flour mill*; carries the shot up *]
fast as tbey reach the bottom of the welt,
and deposilt Ihrm in a box 00 feet above
the first floor. The water drips from the
buckets a* tbey go up, and not much is!
poured into the receiver above, although
it i* intended to be a tort of dipping ma
chine. From this receiver the shut runt,
down a spout into a drying pan, which
greatly resemble* a gigantic shoe, nude of j
thc< l iron. The pan rest* at an angle w in, h
permit* the wet shot to roll slowly down to;'
the chamber below, and the pellet* became ,
perfectly dry a* they pa* over the warn. ,

The house of G Sihrtjf, near the aqua- ]
duct, about five miles below
wa* totally destroyed by fir* on Friday's
night sth Two children perished in Ibr '
flames, and an old g-niiemau and two j
other children were so badly burnt that f
they will hardly recover. It caught from ,
wood being put in the stove to dry. 1
