Stay Away Then. --An Exchange says : "Pocket-picking was carried on briskly at Westminster on the recent visit of Howe's Circus to that place. Upwards of fifty gentlemen (says a Westminster paper) were relieved "of their watches, some of them valuable gold ones, whilst pocket books innumerable were abstracted from the pockets of their owners." The best way to prevent any such trouble, is to stay away and spend your money for something that has some value to it. A circus is a curse to any community which it visits, and takes from every county bund reds of dol lars, for which it leaves no equivalent. Fell Dead. An unknown man, supposed to be from Butler county or Philadelphia, aged about sixty-nine years, fell dead while eating at the Empire House, IIarrisburg( Pa., on the morning of the 33rd ult. his person was found over 112. The following dispatch was the" only paper found on him: West Philadelphia, June 23, 1873. Al ice.

Later The name of the deceased was John Graham and his residence about fif teen miles from the town of Butler, Butler county, Pa. A Singular Accident. A son of Mr. Wolf, residing near Anuvilte, Lebanon co., Pa., aged about 20 years, came to bis death on the 22d ult., under the following circumstances: lie had been away during the early part of the day, and upon return ing home found there was no hay in the barn for the horsos. Borne being cut in a field near by, he concluded to bring some in on a wheelbarrow. While young Wolf was coming out of the field a comrade of his came driving along, The young man started on a run after him, with the bar row, which struck some obstaclo, causing a sudden stop and running one of the ban dies into bis abdomen, causing almost in stant death. Burglarious Attempt. On last Thurs day night, about midnight, the residence of Mr. Jos. E. Jackson, in this place, was on tered (evidently through an unfastened window) by some unknown person or per sons, no doubt with the intention of of committing a robbery, but whose inten tions were fiustratedby the sudden appear ance of a watch dog belonging to the prem ises, whose barking awakened the family and hastened the thief s retreat. Frag- tnents of burnt paper found on the floor of the room the next morning showed the kind of light used in search of plunder. Dun cannon Record. The Colored Potato Bug. The Altoona Tribuni of the 24th ult., says this pest has made its appearance in nearly every section of this and surrounding counties, and is re ported to be working incalculable damage to the growing potato crop. A correspon dent suggests the following as a reliable ure for the evil complained of : Take one-half bushel of land plaster and one-fourth pound 1'ans ureen, mix thor oughly and dust on with the hand lightly over the plauts. It will clear them all off in a few Lours, and it does not hurt the ootatoes. nor is it hard to do. I think it is not dangerous, as I have applied it to all of mine and felt no inconvenience from it Three bushels of plaster and one and a half pounds Paris Green will do one acre, and a man will apply it in half a day. The Paris Green must be cood or it will not do cast on a bug before mixing. If good it will kill nim in less man a minute. Church Notice.

Cnt this out and Keep it Franklin Dyre, a highly respectable and intelligent farmer, of Galena, Kent county, Maryland, gives the following as a sure cure for the bite of a mad dog. Aa will be seen he has tested it, with the most gratifying results: Elecampane is a plant well known to most persons, and is to be found in many gardens. Immediately after being bitten take one and a half ounces of the root of the plant the green roots are preferable, but the dried will answer, and will be found in our drug stores, and was used by me slice or bruise, put into a pint of fresh milk, boil down to a half pint, strain and when cold drink it, fasting at least six hours afterward. The next morning re peat the dose, fasting, using two ounces of the root On the 8rd morning, take a third dose, prepared as the last, and this will be sufficient. It is recommended that after each dose nothing be eaten for at least six hours. I have a son who was bitten by a mad dog eighteen years ago, and four other children in the neighborhood wero also bitten; they took the above dose. I havo known a number of others who were bit ten and applied the same remedy. This is the season for the free use of disinfectants. A few pounds of copperas, that will cost but a trifle, dissolved in water and cast into a cesspool, will immediately remove a great portion of its oflbnsivoness, while chloride of lime freely used in cellars and other places whore there is a likelihood of decaying matter of any kind will do much to destroy the impure atmosphere resulting. XDrlrcn to Death. A man named John Strouse, was arrested and lodged in jail lost week, charged with driving to death a horso belonging to John Ernest of Millers- town. For The llloomneld Times. X Jackson twp., June 24, 1874. Mr. Editor News is pretty scarce in this pvt of the couuty, and so I suppose you must abide with what we have. There have been some improvements during the post year in our town and tne neighbor hood round about. In town, Wm. Mum per, one of our blacksmith's, has erected a large dwelling house. Henry Prochtbas also erected a fine house. Calvin B. Hench intends to erect a house this summer, next to Mumper's and Procht's. Near town, G, W. Garber has put up a very large barn. Geo. W. Trostlo has put a large end to his barn, and has made other improvements on on his farm. A. B. Grosh and Wm. Woods of this place have erected splendid barns on their farms In Madison townsmp. We have very dry weather here at pres ent, (no wonder 1 license has gone down, and the follows get pretty dry.) The rain on Tuesday did not do much good : there was not enough of it. The wheat crop in the upper end promises to be very good. Oats are short. Corn is pretty good. Jackson Correspondent. Cumberland County. From the Cum berland County papers of last week, we copy the following : On Monday night last about 12 o'clock, (Jliarles Taylor, cabinet-maker, was serious ly shot in the neck, at his shop, ou East l'omfret street. It appears that a young man named Itolert Harlan, and another named Alex. Wolf, bad a quarrel some time ago, and Harlan determined to have revenge. He accordingly visited Taylor's shop on the above night, where Wolf had been sleeping, and called for Wolf, when Taylor (who had also been sleeping,) got up and came out of the shop door, when Harlan drew a revolver and lired, the ball entering Taylor's neck, almost severing the wind-pipe. At tins writing tne Dan nas not been extracted, and the sullerer is in a very critical condition. Omcors Lytic and Mathews arrested Harlan on Tuesday morning, and after a hearing before Justice Smith, be was committed to jail. Taylor recognizes Harlan as the man who shot him. It is generally believed that Taylor was shot through mistake. His physician did not consider the wound fatal on Wed nesday morning, unless mortification should take place, In which event it would be lm possible for him to reoover. While a Mr. Kissinger, of Milltown, Cumberland county, was driving through the Main street of Meebaniuaburg Friday, his horse became frightened from some cause and ran against tbo iron-work in front of Messrs, Briudle it Nuiswanger's store, pitching the driver out upon the curb-stone and severely injuring his head and arms. One of the broken shafts of the vehicle ran into the horse's Bhoulder, and to such a depth that when pulled out the blood followed in a perfect stream The afl'air caused another horse near by to run away with a top-buggy, but without serious damage. The injured man was conveyed to his home. The Commencement exerolaes of Dickln son College 0ened with great Interest and an unusual attendance of visitors. The sermon by Dr. Hamlin ou Sunday morning was one of great power, and was ably I lowed bv the baccalaureate of Preside M'Cauley.

On last Sunday a week, a child aged about three years. beloDgiug to Mr. Ueo. uiirosr, ui jumuiusex tuwuNiiip, nuuiueuuy fell into a pot of boiling water, and scalding itself in a shocking manner. Then the 1 1 . 1- ! 1 II i 1 I 1.1 1 1 family physician was first called in, he thought it was impossible for the child to survive its injuries but at last accounts it was in a fair way of recovery. On Friday evening last, Mr. Washington Hess went in bathing in the Latimer creek, near Powers' dam, and was drowned in a few moments after entering the water. It is supposed he was seized with cramp. He was a poor but industrious man. and leaves a widow and five children to lament his sudden death. Ljkens Items. A correspondent from Lykens sends the following: On Wednesday of last week two men by the names of John Tomas, and Morris Davis, were burned at the Big Lick Col liery, so badly that they both died on Fri day. The funerals whioh took plane on Sunday were attended by a large concourse of people. This, Friday morning as rather an elder ly man was in the act of jumping on the moving accommodation train, he lost his hold, and had bis foot crushed, and leg broken, His recovery is doubtful. The colliories of Wiconisco are still at a stand still. Quite a number of the men are leaving the place ; to seek employment elsewhere. Times are dull on account of the works not going. Brief Items.

Reports of falls from cherry trees will be scarce this summer,as there are no cherries to climb for. Mowing machine accidents are in season, but we hope they will be a poor crop too. The bountiful rain that fell here on Sat erday and during Saturday night, extended over most ot the county, and was in time to do much good to corn, though too late to be of much benefit to oats.
