Double Funeral. Oa Tuesday last
Samuel MClintook, of Carroll twp., died
juito suddenly from a paralytic stroke, and
in half an hour afterwards his daughter
Mrs. Btoner, died, both being buried to
gether the day following.
ew Tannery. Messrs. John A. Dcchlcl
& Son, ol Philadelphia, havo bought land
near the upper part of Newport, for tho
pm-poso of erecting a largo Stcain Tannery.
Tho buildings arc to be of stone with slate
roof, ami of sufficient sizo to employ from
thirty to forty men.
Troublesome. We are asked for space
to complain of tho conduct of tho boys,
(some of them pretty largo boys too) around
the church doors at tho closo of evcnijig
meetings. YVo think tho better way to
emedy the evil complained of, would bo to
le t the law take hold of somo of them.
One example of that kind, would stop all
further trouble.
Sad Accident. Early on Saturday morn
ing, David Miller, a former resident of
Duncannon, was injured so badly by being
struck on the head with a picco of ma
chinery at the Ilarrisburg Nail Works, that
ho died in about an hour. His body was
brought to Duncannon, and buried on Sun
day. Tho funeral was attended by tho
Odd Fellows and Masons, of which societies
tho deceased was a member. Tho turnout
was one of tho largest ever seen at a fu
neral in this county, it being estimated that
nearly threo thousand persons were pres
ent, a special train consisting of nino well
loaded cars having come up from Harris
burg. . . .
Yesterdity morning a married woman,
named Bridget Madden, died suddenly at
her residenco near the Loehiel Iron Works, ,
and under singular circumstances. It ap
pears that for years she had been under
medical treatment for a complaint with
which sho suffered, but it was thought late
ly sho was regaining her health. Monday
night sho retired with her husband to bed,
apparently well. During tho night ho
awoke, and not finding her at his side, be
came alarmed. Going to another room,
he discovered her seated in a rocking chair,
but cold and dead. Ilarrisburg Tel., of

Office. In case tho sender of a letter or
packago thus returned cannot be found, it
will then go to tho Dead Letter Office, and
bo rated as otffiR.' mail matter.
Jicwnort Items. Tho new M. E. Church
was opened for services on Sunday quito
a number of ministers from a distance par
ticipating. Tho present Town Council descrvo much
praise for the commendablo manner with
which they havo pushed forward tho
grading and paving of streets and side
walks. Through their onergy, almost tho
whole length of 2nd street has been paved
on both sides, as well as extensive improve
ments on all tho other streets. The P. .
It. Co., have put new lloors in and new
platform steps, etc., around their build
ings. An Eastern firm havo purchased two

The Davenport Brothers in Carlisle.
Mn. Editor Sir Having learned that
tho Davenport Brothers were to give one of
their remarkable seances in Carlisle, on
Monday night, tho 17th inst., I mado it my
business to go over, a distanco of twenty
miles, to see what was to bo seen. Rhecm's
Hall was filled with tho most intelligent
citizens of Carlisle. Cols. Parker and Pax
ton, both well-known gentlemen in Carlisle,
wcro chosen by tho audience as a commit
tee to tio the performers and watch their
proceedings upon tho stage. Tho Brothers
havo what they call a cabinet m which they
perform most of the scenes. This cabinet
was examined closely by tho committee,
who reported that it was mado tight all
around and had no machinery about it,, or
place to enter except, at the doors in front.
They found nothing in it but two violins, a
rope, brass horn, and two lit tle bells, and
tho audience could also sco in from their
seats.
Tho Brothers wcro then tied firnfly, both
hands and feet, so that they could not get
oil' their seats. Tho duors wcro closetl by
the committee, tho gas turned down a little,
and tho musical instruments began to trivo
music, the brans horn flew out of tho win
dow on to tho lloor, a hand was seen at tho
window. Upon tho doors being opened,
tho Brothers were found tied as before.
One of the committee then entered the cab
inet, and sat between tho Brothers with ono
hand on each one, tho doors wcro closed.
and immediately music was heard, bells
raiiff, and a ijrent noiso went on in tho cab
inet, but ns soon as light appeared, the doors
new open, and tiio committco man camo
out, and stated that ho had his hands on
tho Brothers all the time and was surc,they
did not move. He also stated that ho had
been hit on tho head and face, and that his
pockets had been fumbled".
1 ho doors were nsain closed, and in about
one-and-a-half minutes, tho Brothers were
untied, although tho committco had been
engaged about live minutes at tieing them.
Tho ropes were examined and found to bo
just as before. They then entered tho cab-
met again, and in about ten minutes after
tho doors were closed, they Hew open, and
tho Brothers wcro found to be tied as tight
as before.
A spoonful of flour was now placed in
tho hands of each one, the gas turned down,
and in less time than any person could ini
tio them, the doors opened and tho Broth
ers stepped out loose, with the Hour in their
hands. They then gavo a dark seance.
Tho committco tied ono of tho men in front
of tho cabinet on a chair, with his hands
behind his back, and then told him to tako
oil his coat, which was done m an instant,
with his hands remaining tied, tho coat
was seen flying up in the air near tho ceil
ing, and dropping down on tho floor. An
other was then put on him,in an instantwith
hands tied behind his back. Tho violins
flew around over their heads giving music
and other unexplainablo things.
The cabinet was mado very much like a
wardrobe. It would require too much space
to give an account of all tho wonderful
things performed by invisible agency, or as
I presume spirit power. If tho committee
or any others, who witnessed this seance,
think they can tell how it was done by any
other than spiritual or invisible power, I
should like to havo them do it.
AVill the committee pleaso give us a brief
report of their opinion for tho Times t
Note. AA'o give the letter of our cor
respondent who evidently has "faith," but
ns this class of performers have been proved
on several occasions to bo perfect humbugs,
and tho performers forced to leavo sudden
ly, we givo them credit for being only too
smart for the committee. Ed.
