A Warrior Sqnelched.
Til Jen man on a street corner down
tovrn yesterday afternoon, was excitedly
fxp1aining to a crowd of his own political
faith how there would be : rivers of blood
spilled if Tilden was not our next Presi
dent. "Lct the dare-devils beware l" he
paid- ""e most dangerous uncaged lion
that any man or set of men can meet any
where on God's footstool is an outraged
thoroughly-indignant and madly-uprisen
peoleand I, for one, am ready to wade in
blood to obtain our rights and rescue- "
Jlis sanguinary remarks were here inter
rupted by the sudden appearance of a red
headed, madly uprisen female, with anger
in her eye and a stove-plate lifter in her
hand who, pushing iuto the crowd, shook
the weapon in the speaker's face, and ex
claimed in two-line pica-caps : "See here,
John Ferguson 1 I sent you down to the
grocery for a mackerel nearly an hour ago,
and if you don't have that fish home in five
minuses you'll get more war than you know
what to do with afore you're a day older !"
The war meeting immediately adjourned,
and John Ferguson waltzed off for that
mackerel at such lively gait that he must
have been suddenly impressed with the be
lief that a red headed woman with a stove
plate lifter was ten-fold more dangerous
than an uncaged lion. Norristown Herald.

The statistics of 1876 of the Methodist
Episcopal Church have been published.
From these it appears that the number of
itinerant preachers is 11,361, an increase
of 433 as compared with the previous year.
The number of members is 16,613,550, an
increase of 33,001. There has been a de
fense of 2037 in the number of children
baptized, and an increase of 12,414 in the
number f adults. There has been an in
crease of but one in the number of church
edifices, and a decrease of S2,447.S47 in
the value of churches. The most nuexpected
decrease is in the Sabbath school work,
where there is reported to be a falling of
of 12.123 teachers and 91,816 pupils. In
t!tc collections for the general work of the
church there has been a decrease of $130.

The three Younger brothers, indicted
fl(r the Northfield IJank robbery and mur
iltT. were brought before the District Court
;it Faribault, Mo., :it 10 o'clock on the
morning of the 20th ult, and all plead guilty
to the indictment for murder in the first
decree. The other indictments, for obvious
reasM'iis. were not pressed. Immediately
after the plea of guilty the State's attorney
moved to impanel a jury to determine
whether the punishment should be death
ir imprisometit for life. The motion was
K-!iied. and in the afternoon the prisoners
were sentenced to imi-i isonuient in the State
4
jrison, at hard labor, for the remainder of
their natur.-il lives. I he prisoners listened
to their terrible futc with stolid indifference.
In a thriving town of Michigan, a rear
r two aiiu, when the country whs full of
agents, and almost everybody was agent
lor something or other, a certain infant of
that town, being blessed by the advent of
;i baby brother, was very inquisitive as to
where the little stranger came from. Be
ing informed that Dr. S had brought
it, he stood in a brown study for a moment,
when, with the intelligent look of one who
lias solved a difficult matter, he asked ;
' Say, pa. is he the agent for them ?"
Owixrt to the continued hard times the
building associations of Phcenixvil'e find it
necessary tn seek relief in some way for
tluir members. All of them have been
casting about for the remedy. The Phoenix
has hit upon a plan that is thought, and,
no doubt, will solve this knotty question.
The directors have prepared a paper which
if signed by every member, the Phoenix
will cease to exist as a working organiza
lion. Many little school-boys use their mouths
fir pen-wipers. A little boy in France did
it and lie nearly died because there was salts
of copper in the ink, which poisoned him.
Indeed his life was only saved by the speedy
appearance of the doctor, who suspected
what was wrong and applied the antidote.
Little boys should take warning from this,
and use their coat sleavcs or coat tails, when
their coats have tails, to wipe their pens.

A few days since a -oung man was run
over by a freight train near Carroll, Iowa,
and one leg was severed. lie was not seen
by any of the train men. He rolled him
self to a stump, where he tore up his rest
and bandaged his leg so as to stop the flow
of blood, and hobbled back to the track,
where, with the severed part of the leg he
flagged and stopped a passenger train, on
which he was taken where he could get
surgical aid.
In Southern Utah, from a silver mine

became the sandstone.
A colored child was recently born in
Bayside, Talbot county, Md., of the tiniest

Wedding Anniversaries.
Fashion has established the custom, of
late 3'ears, of celebrating certain anniviveries
of the marriages, these being named as fol
lows : The celebration at the cxpiraticu of
the hrst year is called the cotton wedding ;
at two years comes the paper ; at three, the
leather ; at the close of five j-ears comes the
wooden ; at the seventh anniversary the
friends assemble at the woolen, and at ten
comes the tin. At twelve years the silk
and fine linen ; at fifteen the crystal wed
ding. At twenty, the friends gather with
their china, and at twenty-five the married
couple that have been true to their vows
for a quarter of a century are rewarded
with silver gifts. From this time forward
the tokens of esteem become rapidly more
valuable. When the thirtieth anniversary
is reached they are presented with pearls ;
at the fortieth, comes the rubies ; and at
the fiftieth occurs the glorious golden wed
ding. Beyond that time the aged couple
are allowed to enjoy their many gi its in
peace. If, however, by any possibility they
reach the seventy-fifth anniversarj-, they
are presented with the rarest gifts to be
obtained, at the celebration of their diamond
wedding.
In issuing the invitations for celebrating
these anniversaries, it is customary to print
them on a material emblematical of the
occasion. Thus, thin wood, leather, cloth,
tinfoil, silk, and gold paper, and other ma
terials arc brought into use.
Of course, those who accept such invita
tions, and pariake of the hospitality of the
host and hostess, arc expected to contribute
to the collection of gifts that will grace the
occasion. Hills Manual.
The Hunter's Paradise.
From the Harrisbvrj Patriot.
A former Dauphin countian writing from
Stockton. Muskatine county, Iowa, under
date of Nov. 10, to a ?portsinan in this
city, says :
You can shoot half a doz?n or from ten
to twelve mallards any evening just before
sundown in as many minutes. The finest
varieties of ducks are sold in the Davenport
markets at two dollars per dozen. I killed
fifteen prairie hens one afternoon, and
finished my afternoon's work on the river,
at sundown, by bagging eighteen wild ducks.
Any practical sportsman can kill as many
as he needs during the sporting seaso inn
the-spring and fall months, and nobody
cares to destroy what he can not use.
Right here at Stockton (Fulton Station, the
second station from Davenport on the Chi
cago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad)
you can shoot all the prairie chickens, ducks,
brant, wild geese, snipe, rabbits, and smaller
game you need anjT day during the shoot
ing season. As for fish, why, sir, you can
buy the best varieties at five cents per
pound, or catch them by the barrow load
with hook and line, &c. We have stur
geon, buffalo, pickerel, salmon, cat and other
fish, some species weighing from five to
fifty pounds each. This is no exaggeration.
Refer to any responsible party in Daven
port, Muscatine, or elsewhere in the State
for the truthfulness of my assertion. This
is, truly, the hunter's paradise.
m
What is a car Load? Nominally a
car load is twenty thousand pounds. It is
also seventy barrels of salt, seventy of lime,
ninety of flour, sixty of whiskey, two hun
dred sacks of flour, six cords of soft wood,
eighteen or twenty head of cattle, fifty or
sixty head of hogs, eighty to one
hundred head of sheaps nine thousand
feet of solid boards, seventeen thou
sand feet of siding, thirteen, thousand
feet of flooring, forty thousand ehirg

less of green lumber, one-tenth of joists,
scantling and other large timbers, three
hundred and forty bushels of wheat, four
hundred of corn, six hundred and eighty
of oats, three hundred and sixty of apples
and four hundred and thirty of Irish pota

Elk is the leather county of the State.
Three of its extensive tanneries consume
in the aggregate 40,000 cords of bark per
annum and turn out 360,000 sides of sole
leather. The tannery of Messrs. Schultr
& Wilcox, one of the largest in the United
States gives-employment to 200 men. They
have 595 double tan vats, 6 bark mils, 70
dwelling houses for their employees. The
tannery itself cost $2,000,000 and the

: NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD.
As there is' considerable - stock of the
Northern Pacific Railroad held in this
county, the following in relation to ihe pros
pects of the road will be of interest.
The Railroad has now built 555 miles ofl
the proposed 2000 miles, Under the
Government grant the period for complet
ing the road expires in about two years,
but an effort is to be made at the approach
ing session of Congress to have the time
exteuded eight years. ; The Vice President
of the company, who has just returned from
an extended visit to the region traversed
by the road, says while the Minnesota Di
vision, 250 miles, from Duluth to Fargo,
has been operated both winter aud sum
mer, the Dakota Division, 200 miles from
Fargo, on the Red River, to Bismarck, on
the Missouri, has never been operated in the
winter. The traffic did not justify it, and
the snow was a serious obstacle to over
come. During the past summer the reve
nue from the Dakota division of the road
has been u average of about $12,000 per
month. The increased business and the
desire of the War Department that the road
be kept open have led the company to build
between forty and fifty miles of snow fence
in Dakota, and to arrange a winter time
table between Fargo and Bismarck which
will give tri-weekly trips, a train going one
way each week day. The principal points
west of Fargo are Mapleton and Casselton,
the center of extensive Dakota farming
operations, and Jamestown, a government
post, half way to Bismark. There are four
other points which have been named and
ten sidings which are not at present the
sites of human habitations. The Pacific
sections, already completed from Jacoma,
on Puget's Sound, is being extended thirty
miles to the Puyallnp coal fields. The com
pany is about to establish a stage line and
teams to run between Bismarck and Dead
wood City, in the Black Hills. The road
may yet have a future.

Special ISTotice.
Wanamaker & Brown, of Philadel
phia, may well challenge all comers upon,
at least, two points on which they con
gratulate themselves namely, the ex
cellence of quality of the material, and
splendid serviceableness of the manufacture
in all their garments. An artist on canvas
can scarcely put the touches of his brush
with more delicate and discriminating care
upon a pet picture than the makers of Oak
Hall clothing bestow upon every part and
department of their work. Such scrupulous
care is bound to tell. The public will cer
tainly find it out more and more.
