among the; mountains of Luzerne, In the
milling settlements between Wilkcsbarro
and Carbondale. Of this fact tho witness
stated he possessed tho most trustworthy in
formation. Tho statement produced a" pro
found sensation, and its narration was lis
tened to witli great interest by the largo
crowd that prcssodso closely around tlio
table of tho committee that it was with con
siderable difficulty that it could proceed
with lU work, Thlswas,the mo?t exejting
fact brought out by,,fhe .investigation.
Scranton detailed, his connection with tho
posse that did (hp firing on,the 1st of Au
gust last.nnd said that his instructions were
that every man who fired should shoot to
kill, as that was the most cll'ectivo way to
nut down a riot. The witness had learned
this from what he saw of the New York
riots in 1S03, and, judging by tho temper of
the times, the Scranton mob was not to be
trilled with.
The testimony of Scranton relative V tho
Mollies accounts for tho organization and
equipment by tho company of which ho is
superintendent of a strong foroo of Coal and

A Question of Damages.
In the Supremo Court, at Philadelphia,
On Tuesday last, tho arguments in tho fol
lowing caso from this county were heard :
Samuel C. Bunting et. nl. vs. Ncsoucbori
iug Valley Railroad Company. Error to
Common Plcn3 of Carbon County In 1809
tho Nesquehonliig Valley Railroad Coui
pany, without giving bond or instituting
proceedings under the act of Asembly, en
tered upon tho property of tho Bunting es
tate near Mauch Chunk. An action of
ejectment was brought against them as tres
passers in 1872, but they nevertheless con:
tinued to build their road and lay down
tracks in tpito of tho pending action. On
April 3d. Ib7-t.whcn tho caso came for trial.
tho railroad company confessed judgment,
and at their request tho Court below ordered
a stay of proceedings until tlio fllliig of a rc
Jiort of viewers npjwintcd under tho act of
Assembly authorizing' tho Uking of laud by
railroad companies. . That jury, on August
22d, 1804, fixed tho valuo ot tho land taken
at $2,835, and tho damages jo tlio premises
by reason of tho construction of tho road at
5-2,051). An appeal was taken from this
award, and in tho lower court tho owners of
(ho land claimed (hat tho land was to bo
considered In their iossession on tho 3d of
April.' 1874. at the time of the imlcmoiit lu
ejectment, and that the damages for the
land (aken were to include pot .only tho
mere soil, but everything erectetj on it, or In
oilier words, that in assessing tho damages,
the tics, rails and bulWiiigs the railruud
company had put on tho land prior to April
uu, io;, ittrru lu uo cun&iuereu tui tuu pro
perty of tho owners of (be laud. With this
view (he plaintiffs' olfcrcd cvidenco to prove
the value of the land, including tho fixtures
erected thereon by tlio. railroad company,
aud asked tho .Court to instruct the jury
that the measure of damages was as above
stated.' Tlio court below excluded tho cvi
denco oflercd, and directed the jury to dis
regard the fixtures entirely and estimate
tho value of the land without reference to
said fixtures, because the plaintiffs could not
recover for tho improvements which tho
railroad company had put upon tho land if
they had occupied it for tho purpose of con
structing their road, even though such im
provements were erected cndiiig the action
in ejectment. The jury found lor Bunting
et ul.' for 1,074.41. The latter thercu'iion
took their writ of error, assigning tho ruling
above cited as ground for a reversal. They,
contend mat tney wcro owners ol tne rails,
tics and other structures erected on tho land
by the railroad company prior to the date of
mo ejectment, anu tiicreioro nicy were enti
tled to damages for lhot taking thereof by
tho Nesquchoiiing Railroad C'onijauy or
any other corporation which might proceed
under the act of Assembly for the condem
nation of tho laud for railroad purposes.
Tlio defendants iu error contended that tbo
truo measure of damages for tho taking of
i i i... . ii i - "
uuu uy. u niuroau company ior mo con
struction ot its road is the difference be
tween tho market valuo of the whole pro.
pcrty through which the road asses and iU
valuo after tho railroad is finished. That
the entry on the land of Bunting ct al. hav
ing been mado in 1880, the injury for which
damages wcro payablo accrued at that time.
and it was for damages sustained by tho
land as it then stood, anil not as it stood
years afterward when tho ejoctmcut suit
was semen, mat recovery could do uau,

Says tho Bloomsburg Columbian, of lost
oaiuraay: jiotu uesicr ana Jticiiugn up to
Sunday Insisted upon their innocence, tho
former saying that at tho last moment ho
-.i-r I.!-, t n-i i
,iiuui iiruuuuu uis innocence uciora uou anu
maiv ?rhey did not then know that Tully
had confessed. On Sunday night they were
told that there was no longer any uso in do
nying their guilt, that Tully had mado a
statement and tup, wholo truth was known.
McIIugh received, tho intelligence iu his in
different manner, but tho announcement
struck Hester 1 ike a thunderbolt. For a few
moments ho was speechless, but at length
they both admitted theirgulK, Hester saying
tyhllo ho did not plot tlio murder, ho(was
,with tho party and knew what was going to
,bo done. This accounts for his sudden
chango of mind, and for his failure to deny
his guilt on the scaffold as he said ho would
do. It is said that Tully and Kelly had a
reconciliation just before tho execution took
place, thWy jnet in tlio hall and shook hands.

Myths nro but Symbols of Truth.
As the scholar sees in the vain but beauti
ful mythologies of tho ancients, (he embodied
expression of tho hungry human soul, blind
ly groping nfter tho Infinite, so tlio physi
cian sees in that iwpular myth of tho six
teenth century the fountain of perpetual
health and youth an expression ot tha long,
ings or sullering humanity for a remedy
that should forever prevent the incursion of
discaso. The wi Ids of Europo were ransack
ed for this wonderful fountam.andPonco do
Leon sought for it lu tho cypress-swamps
and tangled everglades of our sunny Florida.
Men havo searched for it everywhere and
anywhere but where it really is in tho hu
man body itself. Tho blood is the real foun
tain of perpetual health and youth. When
this source is corrupted, tlio painful and
sorrow-producing cllects aro visible in many
shapes. Tho multifarious forms in which it
manifests itself would form subjects upon
which I might writo volumes. But as all
tho varied forms of discaso which depend
upon bad blood aro curcdj or best treated,
by such medicines as tako up from this fluid
and excrete from the system the noxious
elements, it is not of practical iinnortancq
tiat I snould dcscrjbo .each. Fpr instance,
medical authors describe aboutfifly varieties
of skin disease, but as they all require for
their cure very similar treatment, it is of no
practical utility to know just what name to
apply to ty certain form of skin disease, so
you know how beet to cure it. Then again,
I might goon and describo various kind? of
scniu'lo,us sorejj feyer soros, white swellings,
enlarged glands, aud ulcers of varying ap-
jn-uiiuicu , juigui ucscnuo now virulent poi
son may show itself in various forms of erup
tion, ulcers, sore throat, bony tumors, etc. ;
but as all theso various-appearing manifes
tations of bad blood are cured by a uriiform
means, I deem such a course unnecessary!
Thorougly cleanso tho blood, which, is thq
great fountain, of life, ond good digestion, a'
fair skin, buoyant spirits,' v(tal etrenglh,and
soundness of constitution) if Hi all return to
us. For this purjioso . Dr, Pierce's Golden

upon tho masses of intelligent and valuahlo

of enjoyment nud usefulness as it ought to be.
There is no good reason for this, If you.will
only throw aside prejudice and skepticism,
