.Telm Frank ferd'tt Attempt te Break Jail.
Jehn Fraukferd, who is new serving a
term of nineteen years' imprisonment in
the Lancaster county prison, was detected
yesterday, about neon, in attempting te
break jail. Under-keepcr Murr heard a
noise, which he thought resembled that
made by a person filing iron. He first
examined the cell adjoining Frankford's,
and finding everything right therein, next
.nt te Frankford's cell, Ne. 7, en the
lower range of cells. As he reached the
deer Fraukferd arose from the lloer and
pleasantly addressed him. Mr. Murr at
once sent for one of the watchmen, and the
two together entcied the cell and made an
examination. The cell is iron-clad, ce
mented in one of the walk, but near the
lloer is a register connecting with the fur
nace in the basement. This register is net
large enough te admit a human body, and
Frankford's plan was te enlarge the hole
by the sawing away a piece of the iron plate
adjoining it. This he was doing when
discovered with a saw made out of an old
steel table knife, evidently furnished him
by an outside accomplice. He had se
nearly completed the job that he only had
about two inches mere sawing te de te
have enabled him te remove the plate. He
could then have easily reached the base
ment, through the opening, and escaped te
the yard, and then ever the wall, as was
done by Armisted and some ether prison
ers. Fraukferd was at once removed te
an iron-clad cell en the second story, but
as he has said he can escape from any jail
in the country, and as he has indeed es
caped from several of them, a sharp watch
will have te be keps en him, or he will yet
make geed his beast.

Their Part In the Firemen' Parade; There.
The parade of the Cumberland Valley
firemen in Chambersburg yesterday was
all that its sanguine management expected
for it. The town put en a holiday garb
and the country turned iu tewitness the
spectacle. During the whole day the
streets were thronged with people, but tbe
best of order prevailed. Though until
nearly midnight marching companies, sere
nading bauds and departing guests made
the town lively, there was very little
drunkenness, or any ether kind of disorder
or demoralization.
The special occasion of the display was

sides Lancaster, Norristown and Frederick
Md., had companies and bands of music
in the line, which was made up of six
divisions, including some eighteen compa
nies and nearly as many bands and drum
corps.
As a whole, it was one of the cleanest,
neatest and most gentlemanly bodies of
urcmen ever seen m line. About one
thousand equipped men paraded. Their
uniforms, apparatus and style of marching
were such as te excite most favorable com
ment all along the line. Governer neyt

and ladder division and review
ed the parade in the square. The
Lancaster boys marched admirably and
presented a strikingly handsome appear
ance. Their truck was bv all odds the
finest machine in line ; Clcmmcns's band
carried oil the honors of the day and the
Empire was the,' favorite company. Clayt.
Myers, Jehn Copland, Ferd. Dcinuth and
Abe Keller formed the advance file and

In addition te a full stock et the celebrated Rogers Bre.'s goods, we have the exclusive sale
in this city et the electro-plated ware el the Gerliam Manufacturing Company. These are the
best finished and most durable in the market, and in recommending them te the trade this
company (whose representations are always reliable) claim ler them the following merits :
iii base or the Gerham electro-plate is of nickel silver. The silver-plated wares made upon
this base combine all the excellence of the solid silver goods except the intrinsic value of the
silver itself. One of the remarkable features of the process of electro-plating Is perfect accu
racy and delicacy with which the finest line of the engraving or chasing traced en the surface
of the nickel base is reproduced en the surface of the silver coating. Thus all the excellence of
workmanship which has earned for the company iu reputation as makers et sterling silver
goods is made tributary te the production of unsurpassed electro-plate. The quantity of pure
silver deposited en the finely finished base exceeds that upon the best of foreign plate. This
ware would be excellent and take a fine polish without a coating et silver, yet upon it is laid a
silver suriace which will if net abused last mere than a generation. The object is te produce
plated ware which shall have all the beauty of the solid wares. This high grade et ware is un
distingulshable from work in Sterling silver. Its pattern, ornaments and workmanship are
made equal te these for which the Company's Sterling Silverware has been se highly com
mended. Te these conditions is added the undetlnable air or style which distinguishes the
genuine in everything lrem the work et imitators and which naturally transfers itself from
the Sterling te the plated ware." The price et these goods is only a trifle higher thaneme of
ilie inferior productions.

Last evening another small audience
greeted Mr. J. II. Kcane's second appear
ance in '-Kip Van Winkle." This is net
as it should have been. Mr. Keane him
self is an actor of rare ability, and his sup
port en this occasion was really first-class,
in fact, considered by most of these who
had the pleasure of being present at either
of the performances te be superior te any
cast of this old and favorite play ever seen
en the beards in this city. Against these
inducements, however, weighed the fact
that our people have se often seen the
piece and, only recently, tee, by the great
originator of the character, Mr. Jeffersen.
Then, tee, our city has been treated, dur
ing the season new about closing, te an
unusually large and varied, and withal
successful. run of amusemeuts, perhaps one
of the best Fulton opera heuse has ever

A Witness Become Unconscious.
Yesterday afternoon during the trial of
Julia Hoever, for murder, her step-mother,
a principal witness for the commonwealth.
while sitting near the defendant, suddenly
lest concieusucss and would have fallen te
the fleer had she net been caught and pre
vented from falling by the defendant.
Her limbs became rigid, she clenched
her fists, the bleed vessels and muscles
became swollen, and then suddenly a re
laxation took place and she became limp
and powerless. Drs. Carpenter and
Muhlenberg, who were in court, hastened
te her assistance and administered restora
tives. She was carried first te one of the
jury rooms and thence te the residence of
Mr. C. F. Heffman, with whom she has
been stepping during the trial. Her sud
den illness brought te the minds of many
her former sudden illness when it was
supposed she had been poisoned by Julia
Hoever, the defendant. Mrs. Hoever is
te-day quite recovered, and her husband
states she is suject te such spells, which
seem te be something like hysteria.
Declared a Lunatic.
This morning the case of David S. Hcin
ey, an alleged lunatic, of Pequea townshie
was heard uelerc the iollewing jury :
Luther Richards, C. M. Gibbs, W. L. Sut Sut
eon, David Warfel and P. E. Slaymakcr
The evidence showed that a few
years age Mr. Heiney was possessed
of $2,000 or $3,000, the greater
part of which he has spent, having
new only about $030, leaned te a gentle
man in this city and amply secured. It
was further shown that Mr. Heiney was
almost constantly riding up and down the
Quarryville railroad, always having in his
possession an accordeen, which he was con
tinually playing. Doubtless most of
our city readers have seen him one time or
another promenading the streets with a
smile en his face, accerdean in hand, and
making the most discordant sounds, which
he mistook for music. The jury adjudged
him a lunatic, and the court will "no doubt
appoint a trustee te take care of what re
mains of his property.
