The _town of Waverly is in a ferment.
A social 'organization has been formed
which promises to change the whole ball
tenable flint of the place, and involve fit"
rater and= Ignominious destruction the
festive swallow tall °oat of the men'and
the dearly-loved seal skins of the ladies.
The silks and •velvets must be laid - aside,
and gold-headed canes shall perish.
Fashion 'must be buried and Utility shall
reign. Economy is ':rampant, and the
members of the new Waverly club are
pledged to exterminate her foes. -`
It is net prduahle tlutt molar the Ws
verly people kitow of the existence of this
revolutionary and dangeronsmlub ; but it
is there,' and the votaries of Fashion will
wake some morning to find that she has
fallen a victim to the *engesnee of this
new enemy. The . Tiogans are quietly
*resting in blissful unconschtasness of dan
ger, while there is asocial volcano ceder
their feet ripe for eruption. Like the
ancient Pompoians they know not the
coming storm, and wilLconlinue their
work until this Vesnvise r elnb shall com
mom:sits labor 'of destrlietion and dis
gorge .metaphoric lava, ashes and other
'substances befitting its character upon
their 'devoted heads.
174 weeks the giant mind of =Jonathan
Whittle bad been in laboi,'and at last it
termed this Club. His associates had
long agreed with him in thinking that
something must be'done to check the tide
of extravagance which threatened to en
gulf < the whole world, and especially the
town of Waverly, in its dangerous floOd.
Rut what? This was the question which
interposed a practical bar to the imprac
tical disquisitions of the crowd 'of theo
rists who surrountled Jonathan. here
was a great cause, - with willing workers
Waiting only for something to do ; should
the cause fail and the workers sit idle for
tnewant of, a plan and a leader? • Jona
than said no and when Jonathan Whit
tleLEsq., says tio, • the whole world's
affirmative shall notwvail against it.
JOnithan is not a hasty man ; be &alb
.,
orates on important questions and waits
till he litut something - to say before be
. speaks. After his p4finderoua negative had
beltn 'delivered be was quiet- for. a few
weeks. The next declaration of the oracle
was given at a select meeting of choice
,
'spirits • in the of - .4)f a hotel barn.
"Boys," said he, "we must form a club."
After this remarkable utterance, which
dearly establishes Jonathan's title to
greatness, gore was a brief pause, during
which every' Wan except , Jonathan was
doing his besf to look like an incarnate
interrogation point. Nothing more being
said by Mr. Whittle, one of the older men
7 ,
at last said, "What for :
"Because," said Jonathan, "nothing
but an organised, officered force can suc
cessfully attack this monster of extravn
gance."tied
Again the oracle c his lips, and for
several days there was anxiety and ez
pcetancy among the favored men who '
were permitted to consult it: Silent,
brooding, the oracle remained until on
Saturday evening his associates were elec
trified h; this inspired suggestion : "The
erganizatien must be secret, and must
have a name." •
No One disputed this masterpiece of
iiisdom; and it was considered isettled
that there was to be a club ; it was to be
a secret one, and was to have a name.
That •Jonathan Whittle would be the
president of the club was' a matter of
course, and everything necessary for it
would be suggested by him.
For fourteen days after this last brain
ful utterance there-was eilence on the part
of the oracle,` and consenting suspense
among his friends: Jonathan, like , all
*l9 leaders, knew that he must keep his
followers
.curions, and no{ disclose too
much at omen,- At ..the end of the four
teen days, notion what he does: -
Each of. jonattum'e frientkreceived a
letter inclasing 'a red Paper badge, upon
which was irinted in blue letters, W.,P.
C. C. The letter contained a reetent that
the person -addressed 'should tell no one
wind he had! received, and should come
the next eventing to the ball of the W. P.
C. C. wearing.the badge inclosed.
'As no One !tnew anything about the W.
P. C. C., or was in any manner informed
that they had a hall, the -notice put-into a
postscript' that they should meet in the
loft over Rukgaber's blacksmith shop
was not unnecessary. The time of meet
ing, 7 p. m., indicated that. the W. P . C.
C.Wenld keep goi.id \ hours, and be alleived
to go home in time. to rut for the arduous
duties performed by most of the persons
receiving badges. No name was signed
to the letters, •but all -receiving them knew
that they were the "work of .Jonathan;
and all was excitement as they anxiously
waited for the specified evening.
AR the village clock announced' seven
on Tuesday evening, March 7, a score of
men might have been seen climbing the
stairs that led to the loft over the now
celebrated shop of 'Rukgaber. Inside all
was readiness for the expected meeting.
Boards had been laid for seats, and urude
throne manufactured ;out of a dry goods
box with a nail keg on iifOr a seat. Up
on: this 'nail keg, which shall be historic;
and have a place in futute records like
the staff of Peter the Hermit, or the apron
Of the blacksmith Gao, sat Jonathan, pa
tiently waiting for his folloWera to come.
Afterthefcrrnmate possessors of badges
had all come and were seated on the pic
turesquo hemlock-boards, Jonathan arose
and disclosed the Mystery which wits con
cealed, in the . blue hitters W. P. C. C.
These letters stood, he said, for Waverly'
-Paper Collar Club, an order which would
.go down: to future generations as one of
the - greatest the world ever saw, and

All who 'wished to, join this club were
requested to come and signify their desire

`throne. Every one present solemnly cut

A BRUTAL MURDER-..:
A terrible tragedy is reported from
`Great Bend. tt otzurred at an early
hoar Tuesday evening of last week, and
has thrown' the usually quiet, order
loving people of that prosperous little
hamlet into a great state of:. excitement.
The story is a abort one, and' points ano
ther moral against the use of . intoxicat
ing, liquors. The Elmira Adveitisei• gives
the following particulars : Jan Decker
a young man hardly arrived at manhood,
and Michael Cooney, another young man,
with others, had been drinking in saloons
about the place, — when a quarrel arose
between the two former. not words
were followed by a proposition to tsettle
the controversy by a fight, and the two ,
repaired to the street to have it out.
Before they had , a chance to get at each
other, • Dennis;Cooney, a brother of the
last named, joined in the dispute, and
after a few words, drew a knife. and
stabbed Decker, piercing hie heart, kill
ing him almost instantly. As soon as
Cooney saw the r ;cult of his passionate
hlow, he tied, but it is ant believed he
can elndn speedy capture. , Cooney is
about thirty-fiv. years of age and is said
to be a bard character. At the last ac
counts he had not been arrested. When
the murdered man's body was taken to
his home, his mother was very much
overcome, fainting away thirteen times
before she - became at .11 composed.:
—The Montrose liepublican of Monday
last says : "Cooney ;vas captured at
seven - o'clock last Thursday evening by
Charles — Prentice and Justice Shaw.
Cdonsy bad been hiding in the woods
near his house. He went to the house ,
for food, and was , captured. He ';arrive d
in Montrose in charge of officers. on Fri
day afternoon, and / is now confined in
the county jail to await trial for his
wicked and cold-blooded deed.
OIL IN WYOMING.
A distatch from 'Thulthannock to the
Elmira Advertiser, Saturday last, says :
The news received this noon from the
Loveltou oil well creates great excite
ment. After repa'ring the broken cable,
drilling was resumed yestkrday,. and this
morninra heavy vein of gas, . water anti
oil was struck. The latest report from
the well is that a. stream of gas, oil; and
water is being forced up from the well.
nearly to the top of the derricle. — This
news seems to be reliable, and if the
Strike cont;nucs good the eicitement in
this section will be almost unbounded."
Later news from Wyoming, says that it
js very doubtful about oil being_ found
there in paying quantities.
