Jerry Greening lives in Rattlesnake, Plngtnau townlhlp, In the Jnacr. part of Pike county, twelve miles from Mill'ord. Annnle 0. Chcever lived on tho next farm to that of Grceuing. At about 10 o'clock nn Sunday morning Greening went over to Cbcevera liouco on nn errand. Ilo did not find Chcever in the house, and when be began to look for him around tho yard lie discovered his dead body lying faco down ward on a pllo nf wood, about half way from Ihe house to the hen coop, with a hole In tho left breast just under the heart, Ihe breast being riddled with Una bird shot There Is no clue to tbe murderer, though suspicion oluts lo several peitons, who will probably be arrested, Chcever went to Pike county form New York about three vests ago and settled on the farm where the murder was committed. He has had trouble with the Greenings ever since oyer several boundary line fences. The trnubleg hare been before the courts In a series of esses, and one of them was decided adverse to the Greenings at the last term of the court ut Milford. Tho suits have caused comity between tho Cheeyers nnd Greeuings and they have had many petty quarrels. This fact has led many to suspect that some oneof the Greenings was concerned in Ihe murder. Dr. Emerson, alter au cxanilnt- lion of the wounds, decided that Cbeevcr was standing when the shots were fired, end It is believed that Cheover was chop ping wood when bis assassin came up and shot him. Later. Coroner .Thrall has no doubt that Auimie C. Cbeevcr was foully muuler cd. Cheever was a quiet, industrious man of good education. He was a member and Past Muster of Shakespeare Lodo77 F. and A. M., of New York. His domestic relat ions were very unhappy, and while bo was away in New York ono of the younger Greenings, a son of .Terrv Greening, whs a frequent visitor, and caused much trouble between Cheever and his wile When they moved to the farm at Rattle snake the troubles were soon renewed, Cueever sufpectiug Greening of being on intimate terms with his wife. Since her departure Cheever has lived alone. At the last term ut court at Milford a-law-Bull was tried between Cheever ond one ol the Greenings, in which the former won, anil in reliilialion one ol (lie Greening boys swoie that Chcever triol to murder him but Judge Soeic-y decided that Greening not Cheever, wus the uggresror. Cheever was killed by Iwu charges from a double barrelled gun, one suitable for small game und the other for deer. Coron er Thrall has been busy gathering tbe evi dence, und it is said lie has mude some im portaut discoveries, though he refuses to talk. . Cheever had in ins jioi-kets when found J'JU iu bills, nud there were several hundred dollars in tho house. He hod evidently just prepared the stove for kind ling u lire, und had gone out lo the wood pile to gel the fuel. Whilo ho was standing there the assassin, who must have been ly iug in wait, spranR Ironi benind tho wood pile and discharged the two fatal shots Cheever iuleiided lo return to New York being afnil 1 to stoy at his farm.

The history of Pennsylvania by Wm. II. Egle, M. D. M. A. for several years editor of Stute Archives, is the most complete his tory our Stute over published. It is a large ociayo of 1200 pages, with between SOtl'und 400 line illustrations, printed in clear type und is neatly and substantially bound. It is in two parts. Part first gives the history of the State us a whole, beginning with tho Indian nations. Then passing lo the early settlement- by Ihe Swedes nnd Dutch, it b'jngs.llio events fn cbrouologiral order down lo the prrsnt yiar, taking up the administration of each aud every one from Penu to Puttlson with their portraits ond sketch of their lives. Pari second begin ning with Adams county ami then takes up o ich of the sixty-snyen counties in al phebeticul order. Somo idea of its com pleteness may bo formed when over 000 puges are devoted to this part of the work. As a lull and reliable, yet compact history of the State, its value cannot be computed nnd should huve a place in every borne. All Iho greut events in tho annals of Ihe Stale are faithfully protrayed, wliilo the minor details are treated lo as full consld cration us their importance warrants. This volume is just the sort nf work that mutt find its way to cyery public and private library as soon as its scope und churacter becomes known, and we sho-ild say that very lew uoou shelves in ivnnsviviiuia, In town, vllluco or nn the furui, will remain without it longer than Iho time when tbe noney to purchase it can be spared.

J03EPHUS.-1V. "He becomes a Good Samaritan." "Could you tell me, please," said the stranger, "if my uncle, Mr. 'Jorcpli Nord hoff, liyei in tbis house." He asked the question In tbe purest language of North Germany, ond young Joe, who was not familiar with old country German and who was perfectly conscious that his plaster catted note was oven less perfect than his language, was just skill jul enough to recog nize his own name. "Yes, sir," he replied In Pennsylvania Dutch phrase, "Joseph Noriihnff does live here. There are two men of that name in litis house, that's tbe old man and me." 'What do yod cull 'the old mou'sir, If you plese7" "ThE old. mon," said Joseph, "is the father of the young man, ami that's me, 3ut he is in bed now as lie hm to go to work early in tho morning. Is there anv thing I can do for you?" Neither speaker understood exactly what the other sal J and Iho conversation was spun out much longer than this description, but with the help of signs ami rounduboui expressions each managed to make oTt something Intelligible and ufter playing it cross purpose? fur nearly half an hour, Joe inylted the stranger to take n seat. Indeed If Joe's manners had been as welt cared for as bis muscle he might have seen long be fore that his visitor was in that condition which is known as "all broke up." His boots were covered with mud of several days' growth. His trousers, which were of coarse corduroy, were turned into his socks at ono end and tied under the knees with a piece of rope as if lor support of the trembling limbs. A long waistcoat of tbe same material wandered down to tho lull length.of the coat and both garments looked as if they bad been put together with a martin spike, when old Noah drove his animals into the ark. The young man readily accepted tbe in vitation lo sit down, and as ho removed his thick clolh cup Joe noticed by the dim twi light thai his companion -seemed to be physicially exhausted and suffering from some great mental trouble. "Well, what can I do for you" said Jo again as he removed the bundle from the table and proceeded to light a lamp. "I don't know that you can do much for me.sfr, but I am very thankful that if I am to die at all I can die among my mother's friends." With this he removed an old slrsp that liad'bconlicdover his coat orouml Im nalst and with nervous fingers produced from an Insldo pocket Iwo or three well worn letters which he handed to the other. 'Those are letters," he said, "n m my dead mother lo her sister who is your molh cr. I have carried them about with me for six months. The vessel in which Jcamtf over from Germany was wrecked oul at sea and they were In my pockot when I jumped Into the waves leaving my trunk and my companions on the ship which went to tho bottom of the ocean. However, read them for yourself. IfyontliinkI do try lo de ceive you, do not hesitate a moment about giving me up to tbe poliee or men who guard your town, because I am sick and worn with hunger and thirst and have not one who knows1 me In this country, and now that I have found my mother's friends and have given them her letters, I wish to die." Joe wss not much of a hand at German manuscript as most of his school days had rbcen dtwted lo the playing of "Imokey," but there was a tone in the speaker's voice and a fur away look in the eager, sunken eyes which did not belong to crime or any form cf deceit. "What did they call you at hornet" ssid Joe at last as be folded up the letters, bav. ing failed to make anything out of them. "My name is Wilhelm Fenstermachjr, leplicd the stranger. "I was born in Eburr, a small village near the great German city of Huinburg, on the Baltic Sea, and I have had a life to happy in our town until Bis inarck took my father lo the war with France, when he was killed in battle, ami when my mother heard of it she became a msd woman and was locked up in a great priaon. But in her prison she only thought of me, her only ton, and when the doctors brought me to tea her once in the week she asked lor writing paper and woulJ become calm and wrote always to your mother, Mrs. Joseph Nordhoff, who was Katrina in young frau days. But I cannot say more. My head is much bad. I loo will go away from my mind like my mother it Oh I sir, for the pity of my mother do get one to read tbe letters and you will tee I do not wrong." At this point his voice faltered and broke and Joe pitied him. from bis heart. It bad taken a long time for bis dull brain to un derstand that tho poor travel stained led before him was not a tramp or a thief. But when he did see it he set- about his work like a man. He first went Jo the pantry and produced tbe pint of milk which al ways went lor breakfast in the tarly mim ing. He put some broad, butter and cheese beside it on a plate and motioned to William te "walk In." "Drink hearty," said Joe, "whoever you are, and I'll get you some thing lo eat whilst you swallow that." "I can't eat or drink anything. I havo not tat anything for lour days except ap ples and water, and I am very, very bad, but it you will only tell tne that my aunt Katrina got my mother's letters, and know I have come all tbese ways lo Ir ug them, I will be quite happy once aain; and I will go out under Ihedark sky aud will tell tbe stars to tell my mother tbtt I have done her command and that I will soon be with her loo." Joe began to think he had a lunatta on his bauds now, but the true Dutchman's spirit fgenerotily-was upward In him, as he said, "Well, old man, you jutt take a. pull of that milk now and then you can go out to see as insoy ttars at you pleats. I'll go and see mother and show her your 1st a s, but I wont let her aume down to yru natil yoa stt sod drink .van itlng 1 (It you. Now lap up tint milk Ilka a healthy young calf, and I'll too after, the other things." Obsorr'uj that tli stranger was looking willfully Into tbe milk as If considering bow he might ppeslblr drink some of It happy thought struck right Into tbe centre of Joseph's brain. When lis himself felt "bad," so bad that ho, found no comfort In mllk.nr coffee either, another fluid, not ail l nt the Ice-cresm. store, brought tempor ary consolation to his stomach, tiralu and nerye. He pul a pint bottle in hit pocket, bolted out tho backdoor without hat or coat, ami, in the Drat hntol he reaihed banged down the money lor a pint of the best brandy. In bis hssto ho had forgotten Hist the platter cast atlll covered the roui nanlaof lilt nnsoandas be waited for the ledtle a loud ihout of laughter broke truin a crowd of voungter who, not many days before hud be?n bis fellow workrra lu the f.unJry. Joe, lioweyer, now felt t'wcl. arly tin- pure delights of a good Samaritan to lieod any mook songs of triumph over his personal appearance. Ho pocketed the bottle a.nd tbe change, and, breaking through the ring which tried to stop his path, ho hunt into a run for home. Throwing open tbe door of the tilting room he snw ibe stranger lying at lull length on the carpet iu a pool ol blood. ' (7b U QmtinueJ.) Fittt-AKD, Towatnontinir Itoma. L II.

The pheasant is naturally a very thy bird, and what induced the bird to forget her nature and al once become, tame is somewhat singular. They seem to bo plenty on the mountains surrounding Packerton. Mr. W. considers himself highly favored, for pheasants do not fly into all men's kitchens.
