That "Card" In the Spy.
The editor of Jtho Spy publishes the lul
lowing card, rolative to the Columbia re
porters of the Lancaster papers, which lie
says has beeu sent to him : " Dear Sir :
Would you be kind enough and give us
more interesting news than to let us know
about your conlounded Co. C. Heavens !
letup with that, wo aro getting sick.
Yours, &c, signed X."
From tho above copy, it looks as though
the writer was referring to the Spy, and
not to the Lancaster papers' correspond
ents. He bad better get up a few original
articles for his paper, and let other people
alone. Much doubt exists as to whether
he ever received the card he publishes.
Tossed by a Unit
Miss Anna Eshlcman, eldest daughter
of Rev. Jacob L. Eshlcman, of Mount Joy
township, Lancaster county, received
frightful injuries at Reading, by being
lifted from the ground by an infuriated
bull, tossed up and again caught
on the horns of the animal and
carried some distance from the barn
yard to tho stable. The young lady was
looking at tbe stock when tho bull sud
denly made a plunge, knocked her down
and quickly caught her on his boras, be
lowing at tho top of his voice,
Thef
screams of the youug lady and the tiofee
of the bull attracted tho attention of
Miss Eshelman's brothers, who attacked
the beast with clubs and steel foiks aud
finally succeeded in rescuing her. She
was so badly hurt that at first her life
was despaired of. There are slight hopes
of her recovery.

AHUTHKK INCENDIARY FIRE.
Tbe Poor House Barn Burned.
Shortly after 2 o'clock this afternoon,
the large barn on tho almshouse farm,
belonging to the couuty, was discovered
to be on tire and in less thau an hour was,
together with all its contents, consisting
of the hummer's crop and a great variety
of farming utensils, a mass of smouldering
rums.
The barn was a very large and substan
tial one, the first story being of stone and
the superstructure of frame. It was built
only two years ago, the barn which for
merly occupied the site having been de
stroyed by an incendiary fire on the 4th of
July, 1880.
There is no doubt the fire of to-day was
also the work of an incendiary, and as if
to bhow his audacity the lire-bug applied
the toi ch under the very noses of tbe
board of directors of tho poor who were at
the time in session in their room in tbe
almshouse devising meats for tbe ac
commodation of the insane, who were
rendered homeless by the burning of the
insane asylum last Sunday.
It was some time after tho building was
on fire before the alarm could be given to
the city lire department, as it is some dis
tance from the poor house to box 13 at
Ann and East King streets from which
the alarm was sounded.
As soon as tho alarm was sounded the
whole lire department responded and were
soon on the ground. They could do but
little'and No. 3 was the only one that
went into service. They did good woik in
pintecting the other frame buiLIings.
There is an insurance on the building,
but the amount is not known as yet.
Another nam lturned.
While the poor houso barn was yet
binning the incendiary fired the large
bain belonging to Isaac Ranck and
situated a short distance this side of
Rohrei's tiieeu houses. It was very soon
entiiely destroyed, with all its contents.
As we go to press there is a report that
the incendiary has been captured, and this
itory gives a silver lining to the dark
cloud which these leptated fires have
caused to overspread tho city.
The Incendiary Caught In tne Act.
"TKl" Brimmer, a member of the
Middle street gang, was caught by a man
iu the act i firing R nick's barn. He wes
at once carried off to jail. He
has long been suspected of being one
of the men engaged in firing buildings in
this city.
There was ono Lorse burned 'in. Ranck8
barn.

A special dispatch from Quarry villi
this county, to the Intelligence!!, dated
to day at 1:30 p. iu. says :
"The largest lire that has occurred in
this village for years raged to-day. The
large, bain and tobacco shed on the Lofever
estate, ii: tho southwestern part of the
village, took fire and were entirely con
sumed with all their contents."
The building was situated on the home
propei ty of tho late Daniel Lefevre far
mer, between the Buck road and tho Re
formed church, and belonged to his son
Galen, who carries ou farming extensively.
The barn was a largo frame structure
and the tobacco shed, ono of tho most
commodious buildings of its kind in the
neighborhood, accommodating tbe crops
of Mr. Lefevro's numerous raisers. The
origiu of tho fire and the extent of tho
loss and insurance caunot bo ascertained

Ephrata Review.
Yesterday there took place a novel ex-
euiMOii to Lititz in a hay wagon drawn by
two hoi t-es. Tbe party was composea oi
guests of the Ephrata Mountain Springs
house. They arrived in tbe morniug aid

After paitaking of the jolity at
folded by Lititz, and the hearty re

on their jouruey homeward. Tho party,

Philadelphia; tho Misses Holbrook, Mits
Brinton and Edw. P. Brinton, of Lancas
ter; Rev. aud Mis. Adams, of Camden;
Miss Keiss and Woodcock, of German;
town. Music was furnished by a quar
tette of tin horns, which sounded very
sweetly to all, save tho small dogs along
the way. The last amusement of thu
day, but by no means the least, was tLo
graud drill after arriving home ; con g
inander, Mr. Brinton ; Lieut. Comma'idei ,
Mr. Carey ; Sargcant McEwan. Tte
company has been organized into a secret
society, consisting of ' tbe aforenamed
ladies and gentlemen and about a dozen
more. The first action of tho society wi s
a serenade to the above named reverend
gentleman aud wife, the other evening be
fore they had joined the society, but not
before they had retired for the night.
The onslaught was repelled by volleys of
torpedoes, bcaus, and water, but they
finally surrendered. But before wo wan
dcr too far from the subject, we will con.
elude as the trumpeters have ceased to
wind their horns aud all the party retire
for the night.
TUU "MISSIONARY UfltJKCU."
Moravians to Celebrate Their Jubilee at
Lititz.
One hundred and fifty years ago ground
was broken by Moravian missionaries to
cultivate tho desert fields of heathendom.
Two men, Leonard Dober and David
Nitschman, left Herrnbut, Saxouy, August
21, 1732, for this purpose, and arrived at
their destination, St. Thomas, on the
Island of Jamaica, on December 13 of tbe
same year. Amid difficulties of tlie most
distressing kind they began their holy
work. It was abundantly prospered. The
spiiit of missionary zeal was poured out
upon tho home congregation, which
prompted similar undertakings in other di
rections. Tho church maintains 93 mission
stations in various parts of the world, which
are served by 313 missionaries and 1,471
native assistants. The church owns 211
day schools among the heathen, with 16,
437 scholars and 89 Sunday schools with
12,801 scholars. This is the total product
of 150 years patient, persevering labor by
a small denomination. Jubilee services
are being held at this time wherever
there is a Moravian church or chapel. The
congregation at Lititz will have their cele
bration on Sunday, Aug. 27th, and they
extend their hospitality to all Moravians
and friends of missious who wish to join
in their interesting ceremonies. Revs.
BiBop do Schwciuitz, Bethlehem and J.
Max Hark, of Lancaster, and other minis
ters will be present. The Moravian church
choir of Lancaster, under the leadership
of Prof. Hall, will assist tho Lititz choir
and orchestra.

LANCASTER DAILY INTELLIGENCER, SATURDAY AUGUST 19, 1882.
157 Stoles.
Marietta Times.
On Saturday evening latt, about 9
o'clock, a sneak thief entered tbe premi
ses of Epple & Son, bakers of this place,
and robbed th:m of $157 in cash. The
money was in a closet in the rear part of
the house, and the thief must have been
familiar with the dwelling, as no one
would have suspected its hidingplace, and
nothing else was stolen. This firm has
been very unfortunate recently, as they
lost a horse tbe week previous. No cine
has been obtained of tho thief.

applied a match to a lot of paper which
they placed against the frame smith shop

damage was done. The boys admitted
that they attempted to fire the place, but
what there object was is not known.
