On last Thursday about 65000 feet of
lumber, two cars of bark and a quarter
of a mile of tramway was burned for
Mowry and Wagner on Poe creek near
the new pike; it was supposed to have
caught fire from a spark of the Din-
key. Rain, Rain, Rain.
George 8. Springer, Milton Kern,
Harry Fisher and Cob. King started
from town in a two horse spring wag-
on for Red mill dam, to catch frogs,
eels and snappers—after driving about
five miles they broke down, but not to
be cheated out of the trip they secured
another wagon, and proceeded to their
journey’s end. They returned the sec-
ond day after, with eight or ten eels,
three snappers and about sixty large
frogs; the finest frogs that were ever
brought to this town. Rain, Rain,
Rain.

Uriah Shafer the postmaster at Mad-

the Gap which he did not get. He

and it measured fifteen inches, but he
says that the one that he had hold of
was very much larger.
The new pavement in front of M. C.
Gephart’s property on Main street, is

Quite a number of people from Co-
burn and Millheim were over to Mill
Hall on last Sunday to view the ruins
of the late fire,
Samuel Ulrich killed a large rattle
snake of the female species, on Sugar

Interesting Letter from =a Lady Well-
Huowa in Centre Hall,
Miss Irvine who is a sister of Mrs.
Rev. Eisenberg, of this price, bas
written a letter to the latter giving an
account of the recent earthquake in
that far-off land. Miss Irvine has
spent a number of years in Japan, as a
principal in the Union Mission
schools.
We are permitted, through the kind-
ness of Mrs. Eisenberg, to print the
letter, which will be read with inter-
est by all.
Yokohama, June 13, 1864.
Through the goodness of our dear
Heavenly Father, my life has been
spared this day, and to-night I am
safe and well. This afternoon for
about two minutes, I thought we
should all be in eternity. We had a
dreadful earthquake at 2 o'clock this
p. m. I was feeling very tired and
left the school-house in charge of the
Japanese teachers. I was lying on my
lounge in my sitting room when the
earthquake came. It was dreadful. I
sprang from the lounge and rushed to
the door. The things were falling
from my mantle and book shelves and
all over the house. When I reached
the head of the stair-way, I met Mrs,
Pierson, as white as a sheet; she
stretched out her arms to me; I caught
her and almost carried her down stairs,
She has heart disease and every mo-
ment I expected to see her drop. Dear
good soul kept saying, “Oh God have
mercy and save us.” Although I
trembled violently and every moment
or second rather expected to be crush-
ed, yet I was calm. Miss Pratt could
hardly walk when we reached the hall
down stairs. Miss Crosby was there
praying audibly. The things in the
parlor were falling in the dining room;
a heavy sideboard was moved nearly a
foot from the wall; two chimneys
were destroyed; the walls cracked, ete.
Every timber in this great building
groaned. In Miss Crosby's study near-
ly everything was tumbled about. I
thought of the girls in the school and
wanted to go to them but I was afraid
of the falling chimneys and tiles. I
saw they were all in the yard at a safe
distance from the buildings. The
school house walls were all cracked,
some desks overturned and the fusuma
knocked down. Mr. Davidson, an
old friend from Nagaraki, was outside.
He said “he could scarcely stand, the
earth trembled so much, and the shak-
ing buildings, he said, was a terrible
sight.” Across the street from us, »
house was unroofed, and the chimneys
on nearly all the houses came down.
Near the Public Hall there is a great
crevice in the earth. Ropes are drawn
around it, and a board up, marked
“‘dangerous.’” A large tea-firing house
wus entirely destroyed; a number were
instantly killed, and over sixty injur-
ed; many will die. This evening Mrs.
Pierson, miss Pratt and I went to the
hospital where twenty-seven of the in-
jured ones were lying. It was a sight
to see them with bandaged heads all
in a row. We have not heard the full
extent ot the injury; no doubt it was
great in other places. Have not heard
from Tokio, only that three fires re-
sulted in the earthquake. This morn-
ing at five o'clock, I was awakened by
a shock, and we have had two since
the heavy one this p. m.

f™ EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN,
A horse kicked H. 8. Shafer, of the
Freemyer House, Middleburg, N. Y.,
on the knee, which laid him up in bed
and caused the knee joint to become
stiff. A friend recommended him to
use Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which
he did, and in two days was able to be
around. Mr. Shafer has recommend
ed it to many others and says it is ex-
cellent for any kind of a bruise or
sprain. This same remedy is also fa-
mous for its cures of rheumatism.
