It was an unusual storm, and carried

everything, We never bad such a storm
before. The trains, freight and passen-

get through, For one or two days there
were no freights, and the passenger
trains on Friday, coming from Lewis-
burg, were eight hours late.
The byroads were Padly drifted every-
where, and it was difficult for sleds to
get through.
There were several cases of persons
well nigh being overcome by the cold.
A man coming up the pike in a sled held
up at the Fort and was too stiff with cold
to go in without assistance. We beard a

A HUNTINGDON COUNTY MAN
HORRIBLY MALTREATED,
Huntingdon, Pa., Jao, 26.—A dastardly
outrage was perpetrated in Anderson
township this morning, which will pro~
bably resait in the death of the victim,
Henry Merritts, an oid woodsman. About
1 o'clock three masked men eutered the
humble hat of Merritts and demanded
to be shown where his wealth was
concealed, For several years Merritts
has been engaged in the lumbering busi-
ness and had sccumulated about $4,000,
which was secreted in the basement of
his dwelling. His assailants bound and
gagged him, and failing in their efforts to
extort a confession by these means, they
held his bare feet to a fire and otherwise
maltreated him in a most shocking man
ner. Finally becoming unconscious, his
assailants left him and searched the hut
for his hidden wealth, Beneath the
flooring they found over $1,500 hidden in
a flour sack. Bot this was ail they se
cured, as the other mousey belonging to
him was hidden & short distance from
the house. Merritts was found this
morning still bound and gageed, and ow-
ing to bis advanced years, it is thought
the mal-trestment he received wiil re-
suit in his death.
