RE AA II aR DRELIOGE, THE NEGRO, CONFRISES Hg Out the Throat of Mrs, Baudig-Says He was Drunk. It is to drunkenness Bert Delige as- cribes the murder of Mrs. John Baudie, The negro confessed having com- mitted the crime. He threw her to the ground in a corn fleld, and then cut her throat from ear to ear. Fur- ther than this the details of the mur- der was not given. During the past ten days the ac- cused murderer had been showing signs of weakening. His attitude was changed. laostead of making it ap- pear he was unconcerned, he devoted much time to prayer. Oa Monday he confessed the crime to the pastor of the lacal colored church. It is likely that the finding of the razor, under a stump, with which the crime was committed led Dalige to be- lleve there was no hope for him to es- cape conviction of the erime, and that confession would be the best possible thing for him to do. Itis thought by some that Delige #140 murdered Mr, Baudis in Williams- port, but nothing to substantiate such a belief has been discovered or said by the negro, The confession of the crime will very much shorten the murder trial, which is booked for the next court, yet if an eflort is made to show thst Delige was too drunk to realize what he was doing, the case may consume several days. > Barriage wlcenses, Harry N.

The suc. cess of the hunters does not appear to be as good as in some former yeare, dae, perhaps, to the fact that only the bucks havipg visible horns may be le- gally killed. The Horner party, of Pleasant Gap, slaughtered two bears, killed by Wal ter Dunklebarger. They camped in Poe Valley. Bert Sharer, of Perry county, killed a three hundred pound bear on High Top. He wae shipped to Perry coun- ty. Sharer may have been Joseph M. QGilliland’s companion, hunting with the Lucas, Musser, Rhoads, etc., crew, It is known that this party has oue deer. The Bradford party has two deer, and perhaps three. The Riley party, of Boalsburg, eamp- ing at the Meadows, have two deer. The Woodward hanpters have one deer to their credit, A party from Lebanon, boardiog at the Reitz farm south of Linden Hall, has one deer, F. M. Ackerman, of Georges Valley, a lone hunter, killed a fine deer. The R. A. M's, of Potters Mills, who are in camp at Garrity’s, have a deer. It was killed by Lloyd Bmith. The Nefl neighbors were out for =» day last week and killed one deer; this week they were out again, and saw two deer, but did not kill, Nothing has teen heard from the bunters in the Allegheny Mountains with whom Al P.

That learned pody congratulated the king om the Lappy fortune which had given him so great a man as Scheele, the discoverer of magnesium, as his subject and fel- low countryman. The king, who took small lotetest in the progress of sclence, felt somewhat ashamed that be should be so ignorant as never even to have heard of the re- nowned chemist. He dispatched a cou- rier af once to Sweden with the laconic order, “Scheele is to be Immediately raised to the dignity and title of a count.” “His majesty must be obeyed,” sald the prime minister as he read the or. der, “but who in the world is Scheele?" A secretary was told to make loguiries, tle came back to the premier with very full information. “Schgele Is a good sort of fellow.” sald he, “a leu- tenant in the artillery, a capital shot and a first rate hand at billiards.” The next day the lieutenant became a count, and the {llustrious scholar and selentist remained a simple burgher, The error was not discovered un the king returned home.

Instead of wooden structures the gran- rriex are built of stone and brick, Most of thew are of conical shape and vary in capacity from 500 to 5,000 bushels. The foundations of these granaries are sunk deep futo the ground. At the top of the structure Is a close fitting lid which covers the hole through which the grain is emptied into the granary. The ordinary method of filling the storehouse is to have the grain car- ried to the top in sacks upon the backs of laborers up steep ladders. At the bottom of the granary Is a door which leads into a parrow chamber, which is separated from the grain room by a solid wall of brick or stone, containing a slatted opening. through which the grain Is emptied when required. —Kan- sas Clty Star, ‘ Two Hundred Per Cent Loss.

In the seventeenth and elgbieenth centuries Venice set the fashion in all matters of amusement and was a sort of combination of our Monte Carlo and Paris. Throughout the eighteenth cen tury the Venetians were seized with a perfect mania for masquerading and gambling. Paris and Loudon followed suit, and the two most popular amuse ments, both public and private, were masquerades and gambling saloons People not only wore their masks or visors at balls, but Io the mall apd the parks and the theaters. At length matters got to such a pass that when e police rald was made on a certale low dancing place in Sebo and an or- der was given for every one to unmask what was the amazement of the police to find that at least a third of the com papy cousistied of indies and gentle wen of the highest aristocracy. some of whom had even brought thelr daonghters. — London Saturday Review AR —————— A ——— The Judges Ride. Customs change slowly with the law- yers, but the procession through the streets at the reopening of the law courts was not always the casual af- fair it now is. Until the middie of the sixteenth century ihe “jodges’ ride” to Westminster ball was quite an impos ing spectacle, all the legal dignitaries beiog wounted on mules, like bishops and abbots on a pligrimage. Mules presently gave place to borses, which In turn were abandoned for coaches. The last procession on horseback took place in the time of Charles 11. and was then regarded as an loteresting revival, It was not greatly appreciat- ed, however, by the judges themselves, who foupd thelr efforts to remain in the saddie far from conducive to a digolied appearance, and before the Journey's end one of their number, Lord Twisdon, had the wisfortupe to be thrown in the mud. — Westminster Gazette.
