Avi-TIIM Hxiir-hi* Horror. Not
withstanding th multitudinous instance*
of death on the rail, and the repeated
warnings to boy* t*> IM- careful how they
play on or near the cars, the practice is
Continued, and culminated last Friday at
Snow Shoe in an accident which occasion
ed instantaneous death. The victim this
time was a bright little lad only eleven
years of age. His name was Henry tlaum,
j the adopted son of Jacob Happ, of Know
Kltsse, and was formerly of Pottsviile, thi*
Stale. He ami several other boy# were
experimenting in the Ssdenee of rail
roading with car# stationed at the Snow
Khoe mines. The cars were standing on a
down grade, and the lad* were running
, them a short -listanco ami then stopping
them. One car was sent a few rods down
grade and the brakes again put on. Henry
. was standing near this car when another
, was sent down against It. He either did
; not see the approaching car or was unable
to cacape In time, for It struck the one in
. advance, catching Henry's head between
the "dead-heads," or "hull-heads," (or
whatever the name may be of those pro
jection* by which the car# are coupled),
killing him instantly. Thi# dislrtwsing
occurrence, of course, wa* the cause of
much grief to the friend* of the unfortu
nata lad, to whom our sympathy It ex
tended.

After reading the almve we made careful
intjuiry into thi. very im;orunt matter,
and we think that the evidence before u.,
coupled with our knowledge of the habit*
of the |"s.ple of Lt.ck Haven, ju.lify u in
placing the amount of water contumed by
the average citiren c.f Clinton county',
int-orj-rated city at about 1 pint per week.

The fire eeape of the Kurtr. patent which

Notwithstanding the late rm-in price*
and the fact that a I met every merchant
able commodity i. bringing from 'lb to 100
per cent, more than it did three month,

i certainly and much more aatia
