A Burn Burned. The Carlislo Volunteer
says : On Saturday last, about noon, tho
splendid barn of William M. Watts, Esq.,
in Upper Allen township, was entirely con
sumed by fire, tcgethor with all its con
tents. Tho fire is supposed to have origin
ated in tho threshing machine, and when
it was first discovered onthe lloor, beneath
the machine, was about tho size of a half
bushel measure. One of tho workmen
called for a bag to smother it, and doubt
less could have dono so ; but no bag was at
hand, and in another moment, a blast of
wind swept through the barn door, and
the heap of straw at the end of the sepa
rator was in flames. Then all tho hope
of saving the buildrfig was at onco aban
doned. Tho men had barely timo to save
themselves. A wagon, partially loaded
w ith grain, in the barn floor, was in flames
before it could bo removed. All the live
stock was saved, but all tho other contents
of tho barn were consumed, consisting of
SCO bushels of barley, 1,000 bushels of corn,
a mow of hay, and a largo quantity of
wheat, threshed and unthreshed. Quito a
number of. smaller buildings, adjoining tho
barn, were saved. This was a new frame
barn, thrco stories high, and was ono of the
best structures of tho kind in tho county.
Mr. Watts' loss will be heavy, but wo
presume it is at least partially covered by in
surance. This is tho third lire, from a
similar cause, which has occured in this
county within tho last three or four years.
The Latest Swindle. A lot of New
York Swindlers are sending out a circular
reading as-follows :
Mr. (hero follows the name of tho person
addressed) to
N. Y. Rubber Stamp Company, 302 Broad.
way, New York, Dr.
To one outilt as agent for this company, $5 00
Sir ; You having left your gold watch as
security for an outfit of this Company, and
not hearing from you, I take tho liberty
of sending you this letter, informing you
that unless you send us the money imme
diately we will not hold the watch.
Please remit tho amount by return mail
and tho address you wish the watch sent to
and wo will forward it to you by express,
as I fear we have not your correct address.
Hoping to hear from you soon, wo re
main yours, &o.
N. Y. KuniiEii Stamp Co,,
!)02 Broadway.
This is so transparent that it only needs
a slight explanation to make it perfectly
plain to our readers. The swindlers
intend that their victim shall think that
the sending of the bill to him is an error,
lie of course is e::pcctod to jump at the
chance of gotting a gold watch for $5.
Murder Trial. The trial of John Kcihl
charged with poisoning his wifo was began
at Carlisle on Wednesday List. The whole
of that day was consumed in obtaining
a jury, which is composed of tho following
gentlemen :
John Jacobs, Carlisle; Henry P. Chap
man, Carlisle ; Jacob llemmingor, Pcnn ;
Goorge W. Presscl, Monroe; Christian
Kaunman, Mechaniesburg : Jacob Landis,
Mcchanicsburg ; Andrew Homer, Middle
sex ; William Hastings, Penn ; Uriah Coral,
Southampton ; John 11. Drawbaugh, Lower
Allou ; Alexander Muck, Carlisle, and David
Dewalt, North Middletowu.
Considerable timo was taken up with the
Medical testimony, and the case probably
occupied the whole week. .
A Wild Cat Shot. On Monday, while
William Armpriester aud some others, wore
hunting rabbits, on what is known as
Bamitz's hill, whore the Railroad crosses
the Codorus creek, nbout two and a half
miles below town, their dogs "scared up"
a wild cat, and after a short chase, tho
animal treed. Wm. Armpriester shot it
and brought It to tho ground the first fire.
Judging from the appearance of the cat, it
is probably not over six months or a year
old. It measures twenty-five inches from
tho tip of the tail to tho end of the nose,
aud weighs six aud three quarter pounds.

A Panther. A CloarfioUl county paper
tolls the following story: On the 28th
ult., E. J. Cunningham, a boy of fourteen
years living at Rock ton, mado a narrow es
cape from a panther. While on his way to
the tunnel, on an errand, in Union town
ship, he was startled by a low and heavy
growl near overhead. Upon looking up ho
saw panthor perched on a treo about thir
ty feet from the ground, which was wag
ging its tail, in anticipation of springing
upon its prey. No soonor did the boy's
eyes meet thoso of the panther than it gave
a loud and very piercing yell and leaped to
the ground. This sudden, bold and noisy
demonstration on the part of the panther,
frightened the colt, which tho boy was rid
ing, and It took to flight at full speed the
panther keeping close to its side and about
neck to neck, giving on occasional fierce
yell, which scorned to add speed to tho
colt's feet. After running in this manner
for about forty rods, the panthor gave up
the chase, and disappeared in the forest.
A (llrl Stolen. E. Kealing, living nt
Raytuilton, near Franklin, Venango county
called on us In great distress, stating that
his daughter, aged fourteen, and an only
child of a deceased mother, had been stolen
away from tho school of the Sisters of Char
ity at Mcadvillo, by Grayburn & Miunich's,
Minstrels, a band of wandeiing vagabonds
who, some two weeks ago gave an exhibi
tion in this place The girl was taken away
about tho 10th of October, and the father is
now on hunt of the troupe, aud if he finds
them, to ioscuo his daughter and pun
ish tho villainous wretch who stole her
away. Any information of tho where
abouts of the Grayburn & Minnich Min
strels will bo thankfully received by the dis
tressed father. Tho troupe had bad luck
whilo hero, and left unable to settle their
hotel bill. Greenville Argui.
Burned to Death. The Gettysburg Star
and Sentinel says : On Friday night last,
about 11 o'clock, Miss Edith Oitt, aged be
tween 15 and 10 years, daughter of Jesse
W. Gitt, merchant, of Hanover, attempted
to blow out a burning lamp of Koroscno oil.
Tho fluid Ignited, exploding tho lamp,
and scattering tho burning liquid over her
clothing, which was at once enveloped in
flames. Aid was at onco summoned, but
before the flames wero extinguished, the
young lady was terribly burned, tho face
and breast to a crisp. Sho lingered until
11 o'clock Saturday morning, when death
relieved her sufferings. Miss Gitt was a
young lady of culture and tho idol of a
largo circle of loving friends.

Serious Accident. Tho Huntingdon
Monitor says : Whilo George, ngod 12 years
son of G. W. Bouse, of Three Springs, was
in the act of crossing a fence, a few days
ago, with a loaded shot gun in his hand, a
rail fell striking tho hammer, which dis
charged the gun, the load passing through
the arm below tho elbow, causing a fright
ful wound. Dr. Thompson was called in

as well as could be expected.
A Large Lumber Order. The firm of
Kcndig and Hostctter, which has for the
last three years been operating with steam
saw-mills in Perry county, in getting out
ship, car and wagon stuff, liavo recently
purchased 6,000 acres of excellent white

Duncannon Items. Our correspondent
at Duncannon sends us the following :
The revival meeting, which coiumoncod
in the Methodist church six weeks ago, is
still in successful progress.
Pedestrians are rejoicing over new cross
ings that have boon put down iu heretofore
much used, but vory poorly paved places in
our streets, the one between tho Odd Fel

bo highly appreciated.
The Duncannon Iron Co., liavo built a
new warehouse at their Nail factory for
storing nails : they have also commenced
one to bo built of brick iu front of tho
Company's story, to replace the ono re
cently destroyed by tire.
Our pork raisers, seem to have learned
that meat is more palatable as an ai ticlo of
food, than lard and consequently, no bet
ting on "big hogs" is heard of, nor Sun
day visiting of pens seen, this fall.
Tho Susquehanna has risen over four feet
since Thursday night, and we are informed,
is swarming with ducks iu the vicinity of
Wisters Island.
Thursday noon, eiuht w ild turkeys were
driven into town by Mr. George Mutzy, who
bad been gunning west ot Hliull s (lam, the
birds having, lit in Jones' meadow, were
again chased up by Mr. M. when they

ready nearly exhausted by flying four of
them railed. 1 luce ot them tailing in tho
river wore captured, aud a fourth after fly
ing halfway across, turned and came back
lighting on the stack of.tho furnace, nnd af
tor a lively chose it was captured by Mr.
Morris ltochers. The affair caused consid
erable excitement for a while.
tircat Immigration Into Kansas. Re
turns from the General Land Office .at
Washington, show that 132,000 acres of
land have been located in Humbolt and Au
gusta districts, during last month, princi
pally under tho homestead. Allowing each
settler 100 acres, it shows that about 800
families have gone in during October. A
number of persons of this place, and other
parts of the county during the summer of
1870, entered about 3,000 acres, and have
an advance of 100 per cent In one years timo.
About 8,000 acres of choice land can bo had
at private entry, in this district, at a cost of
$141.00 for 100 acres. This sum pays all
expenses, Including price of land, entry,
foes and patent deed. A number of per
sons in Bloomfield mean to make an effort to
secure this tract and hold it for advanced
rates. J. Rinehart, Esq., late sheriff, and
Chas. L. Murray. Esq., will correspond with j
any person wishing to join in the location.
This land lies near Eldora aud Eureka, the
county seat of Greenwood and Butler coun

Persons will understand this tract does not
require settlement.
