The R'gUter this week is again ex
cited over our farming, and asserts that
we are experimenting in a new process
of raising sweet potatoes, by poling them
like beans. Of conrse we do not expect
the Register to tell us anything of value
iu the cultivation of plants that have ten
drils, but as it is constantly cultivated,
and has its tendrils always twined around
stakes driven by its master, it might tell
us exactly of the process to which it is
subjected by his manipulating hand.
Don't be coyish ; tell it out Perhaps
we can apply the principle in training
the tendrils of our sweet potatoes, and
we'll then credit you and your master
with the improved method, or process,
and send vou a mes besides.
"What was it Duo Fob Last
Friday afternoon, while Mr. W. Robin
son, a farmer on a tract of land half a
mile east of Mifflin, owned by George
Jacobs, of this borough, was removing a
shock of wheat freshly dug ground was
noticed about the shock. After the shock
was put on tbe wagon the ground on
which it stood was examined, and to tbe
surprise of all persous present, the clearly
defined outlines of a hole about four feet
long and two feet wide were revealed. It
evidently bad been dug after the wheat
was cut, and the shock was placed over
it to conceal it. " Wn it was it dug for I"
and "What does it contain V were ques
tions that all asked. It was determined
to open it. A shovel was procured, and
the I.wse ground thrown out clean to the
bottom. 1 1 was about fbnr feet and a half
deep, but contained neither goods, body
or bodies. "What was it dug fori" is
tbe question that tbe oommunity -

Arnold Varoes offers at private Bale a
tract of land iu Milford twp , containing
45 acres, with improvements. See ad
vertisement. The Mlionian. says that a Mr.
brought a rye stalk into that office to
show as a wonder in length. It measured
13 feet. The Sentinel Local would not
suspect that the Millonian was sold in that
rye straw if a sell of that kind had not
been attempted in this office recently
Last week a citizen cf Spruce Hill twp
appeared in the Sentinel office with a
rye straw which, when measured, reached
the length of 14 feet and 8 inches. It
had been cut, he said, on his farm by bis
son. The editor not being in the office
as the time, the rye straw of wonderful
length was inspected by the foreman,
who soon discovered that a number of
straws had. been nicely fitted into each
other. The farmer, however, was not
informed while in the office ihat the sell
hal been discovered. Query Did the
sou fool the father, or was the sell gotten
up for the priuter by the old gentleman
himself T
lioitRiBi.E Accident. On Thursday
of last week Mr John Uass, resiuiug near
Dover, met with a most distressing aud
painful accideut in bis wheatfield while
eugaged in taking off the grain with a
reaper. Two mules were hitched up and
while the reaper was iu motion the rake
struck a stone, the noise of which frigh
teued the animals, when they juinpped to
a side and commenced running. Shortly
afterwards Mr. II. was thrown to the
front of the reaper which passed over
bim mutilating him in a horrible manner.
II ia right arm was cut off below tbe el
bow, and bin leg was torn and mutilated,
but not fractured. He was seriously in
jure! about tbe shoulders and bead. A
messenger was immediately dispatched to
Vork, and Dr. Pentz proceeded to give
surgical attendance to the injured man.
His arm was amputated aud tbe other
injuries carefglly dressed, lie is report
ed to be doiug remarkably well under the
circumstances Yoik True Democrat

The Fourth. There was no organ
ized effort iu Mifflin to celebrate the 95tb
anniversary of our national independence,
in which everybody took a part. It was
observed by some iu seta of twos, threes,
fours, and so forth, just as it happened to
suit. A set of perhaps a dozen, all of
one sex, intended to go up to the moun
tain, at Macedonia, where a good stag
time was anticipated. The " Pelle of
Mifflin,' a fancy wagon owned by Panne
baker & Slaughterback, was got out and
horses bitched to it, and lunch put into
it, when the weather lowered to such a
degree that the party gave np going.
Tbe business places had their cyrtains
down aud doors open, and the keepers
moved around about their places with a
listless air that impressed one with the
feeling experienced when one enters a
store on a Sabbath day where goods are
procured to dress a departed one for the
tomb. " Tangle foot was around at a
num1 er of places, with his foul antics
About 5 o'clock P. M.t Tonsorial John,
of Patterson, who has become a part of
the 1 ourth of J u!y in these parts, made
his appearance on the street, accompan
ied by three others on horse-back, all
habited as Indian braves on the war path
in pursuit of settlers. Two men. tep
reseuting pioneer settlers, were chased
around the town awhile, and finally were
overtaken at the deserted ranche across
the way, from whence the spirits have
departed, and conducted to Patterson,
where they were scalped by their cap
tors. This finished, John speedily doffed
his Indian costume, and prepared to have
his balloon taken to the green owned by
i he Railroad Company, south of their
shops in Patterson. Meanwhile the band
repaired to that place, and by its music
collected a large crowd of men, women
and children. About 6 o'clock the Pro
fessor appeared with his balloon and dig
nifiedly a-la Tonsorial John style nn
folded the "vessel of the air." In this
difficult task be was ably assisted by the
Craig Brothers. But alas for the expec
tation of the multitude, for just as the
balloon was about to be loosened from
its moorings John's fingers a spark
from the fire below it. that was filling it
with heated air, caught in the tissue pa
par, of whi h it was constructed, and it
was consumed. The Professor's pro
gramme was a success. An old-fashioned
hoe down Was then indulged in by a
number of the youths of Patterson, on a
platform near to tbe balloon ground, to
the music made by a banjo, and its
monotonous turn turns sounded like
some of the Indian music gotten np by
the Professor The whole proceeding
furnished a good deal of amusement for
the crowd. So ended the Fourth, with a
few other incidental! sot her mentioned.
Key. D. M Blackwbldbr, on last
Sabbath morning preached a sermon on
Bible Temperance, from the text "Wine
is a mocker, strong drink is raging, and
whosoever is deceived thereby is not
wise." Prov. xx : 1. Once the church
strenuously lays hold of the temperance
question, and asks that tbe preseut tern
perance laws be enforced against those
violating them, tbe outside world will
advance rapidly and determinedly in
the same direction.
Wobth TBYiNO.-'-The following rem
edy for fever and ague, which appeared
in a leading editorial in tbe Cleveland
Herald, won't cost much anyway even if
it does fail : "We wish to give a very
simple remedy for fever and ague, and
wish to emphasize it by saying that it has
to our knowledge, proved very effica
cious. It is simple common salt. A
teasp'ionful taken in water, and a tea
epoouful deposited inside each stocking,
next the foot, just as the chill is comiug
on." That's all there is of it; but
knowing that it has been very efficacious
in breaking a chill and perfecting a cure,
we put it in oar editorial columns, where
no humbug remedy shall every find a
place if we know it.
Fibb in Lewistowik -Ahont
t ten
o'clock on the night of the Fst inst., a
fire was discovered in the stable adjoin
ing the Coleman House, in Lewistown.
the flames soon extended to the hotel,
which was burned to the ground, as was
also an adjoining house, owned by Mr.
Eisecbise, from whom Mr. Coleman pur
chased the hotel last spring. Mr. Cole
man( previous to his going to Lewistown,
kept the Railroad bouse at Patterson.
His property, it is said, was insured for
$7,000. Tbe loss is considerably above
tbajA third house was torn down to
stay tbe progress of the flames. At one
time the citizens thought that the home
help was not sufficient to extinquish the
fire, and a dispatch was' sent to Harris
burg for aid. The fire department of that
city responded and hurried a number of
companies to the railroad to go to Lewis
town ; but when about embarking, infor
mation was received that the danger had
passed. The total number of buildings
destroyed were the hotel and one resi
dence by fire, and one dwelling house
pulled down, and six stables burned
Three horses, two mules, a buggy and
wagon belonging to contractor McGov
ern, were burned in Mr. Coleman's sta
ble, fj. C. Moser, of this place, who
kent'aVestanrant in the basement of the
Coleman House, lost about -S400. He
had no insurance. Mr. Moser had his
household goods burned by the great
fire in Mifflin last winter. I
