which the spurious dollar is cast is al
most a perfect imitation of the original

weight would defy the skill of in expert.
All that have been rejiorted are stamped

Three Monday Accident.
Monday was a busy day for Dr. P. F.
Shal'er. In addition to his regular practice
he was called uihiii to attend to not less
than three persons w ho had lieen ac
cidently injured.
The Dr.'s first call was to the home of
"Joe" Shaffer, near Pleasant Hill
Church, in Somerset township, where
Mr. Shaffer's ten-year-old son had run a
splinter an inch and a half long and as
thick as a lead pencil into the hall of his
foot. The splinter was removed with
much difficulty. Theaj-cidcnt will result
in the lad's having to use cratches for
several weeks.
A short time afterwards the Dr. was
summoned to the home of Mrs. Samuel
Walker, in the same neighborhood. Sadie
a twelve-year-old daughter had been sent
to the forks of the road near the church
to bring home the milk cans that been
left there by the driver who conveys the
milk ofthe neighberhood to the dairy.
She was acompauied by her younger sis
ter and a lad the son of a neighbor. The
three youngsters were driving a horse
hitched in a spring wagon. The horse
took fright at some object along the road
aud ran away, throwing the children out
or the wagon. Sadie Walker was the
only one injured. The Dr. found her face
aud the upper part of her body badly
bruised and cut. She was also suffering
from internal injuries the result of which
can not lie foretold at this time.
The same evening a 13-year-old son of
Rudolph Watkins, of near Friedens, was
thrown from the back of a horse, and
sustained several ugly scalp wounds and
a fracture of the skill I. Dr. Shaffer dress

both 1'laime.L At any rate they concluded
to settle the matter in fistic style. Tues
day they went to a secluded spot and
fought to a finish. Miss Rankin was the
victor and did her opponent up in great
style. In her anger she even went so far
as to chew the earrings out of Miss Hull's
ears. Both girls were badly used up. The
R-inkin girl's father happened along
while the fight was in progress and en
ouraged his daughter in the tight.
Rankin admits that he was an onlooker
but says he was there solely for the pur
pose of seeing that his daughter got fair
play. He claims bis presen-c was needed
as the friends of the Hull girl crowded
around and tried to take a hand in the
fight. He succeeded in keeping them
away till bis daughter had completed her
work. Miss Hull uiade information
against Moses Rankin and his daughter
charging them with assault and battery.

Tao Old Story.
A distressing accident ooinrred in Jen
ner tow nship at 4 o'clock Friday after
noon, when Martin Saylor, aged ten
years, accidentally killed hiscoiisiu An
nie Saylor aged nine, w ith a rille,
Moses Saylor, whose hiHiie is near the
Shunk schoolhouse, Isrrowcd a rifle a
few days ago from the Roddy loys, w ho
live at the foot of the Laurel Hill mmn
taiu, to go hunting, and the a.-eid nt oc
curred when Mr. Savior's son was re
turning the gun to the owners.
Tho lad had to pass the, homo of his
uncle Jacob Saylor in order to reach
his destination, and when he was within
a few hundred yards of their farm he was
seen by Mrs. Saylor and oue of her little
sons, w ho were working in a buckwheat
field.
There is a ravine near the field, and as
the lad was passing through it he met the
little girl and liegan to show her the rifle,
which was accidentally discharged, the
ball, a 22-calibre, entering her stomach
and striking the spinal cord.
Mrs. Saylor at once sent her son from
the field to learn what the shooting was
about. Seeing bis sister lying on the
ground, gasping for breath, he returned
and informed his mother, who hastened
to her daughter's side, but she died im
mediately after her arrival.
The remains of the child were picked
up and carried home by her mother, aud
L'ndertaker Joseph Sala, of Davidsville,
was summoned.
Mr. Saylor, father of the boy who
was carrying tho rifle, says there were
no cartridges In it when he started the
boy from home, but he gave him a liox
of cartridges and warned liim to give the
articles to Messrs. Roddy as he received
them from him his father. The lad was
too badly s.-aretl to tell how the accident
hapiieiiod, but it is thought that he put a
cartridge in the rifle to show tho little
girl bow it worked.

What It a Day's Plowing.
From the Baltimore American.
While cutting a furrow 9 inches wide
the plowman walks just about eleven
miles while he is turning over an acre
that is, without reckoning the journey
from the stable to the field and buck
again. It is one ofthe advantages of long
fields that the time occupied in turning at
the ends is so much less than on shorter
stretches aud smaller fields. In plowing
an acre 'Ml yards long, cutting a 9-inch
furrow, the.man goes twenty-seven and a
half times round, aud turns on the bead
land fifty-five times. If we allow one
minute for turning, the time thus oc
cupied is equal to fifty-five minutes, or
say an hour's work the hardest of the
day, too. This would be in a paddock or
field of average length, being 16 chains
long. When a field is 8 chains 179 yards
long the number of turnings is disabled,
and the amount of hard work and time
absorbed is oue hour aud fifty minutes.
Iu a field ti chains long (117 yards) a
uot unusual length the plowman turns
lt times in order to cut through an acre
with a 9-inch furrow, and allowirg a min
ute for each turning, two and three-quarter
hours are occupied in that operation.
The plow space to do good, steady work
varies from one and a half to two miles
per hour. Applying these figures to the
eleven miles walked in psswing an acre,
at the rate of one aud a half miles an hour
takes seven and one-eighth hours. With
a 10- inch furrow there is one milolessof
walking, which may be computed as half
an hour to three-quarters, according to
the estimate of traveling pace. With a
10-inch furrow on light laud, where the
furiows are 35.! yards long, from six to
seven hours are occupied per acre, at the
ordinary pace of two miles per hour.
Thus, in short fields a great amount of
extra work becomes necessary, and time
is !t in turning. So an acre may re
quire eight or nine hours. Plows cutting
a double furrow, or three or four or more
furrows at the same time, may be estimat
ed on the same lilies.

The Tree Currant.
F'or several years past only the red
currants of early summer have been con
sidered of special value for marketing
and for general use. The black currants
were grown more as decorative plants
among the hardy shrubbery, and were
valued only for their deliriously fragrant
blossoms. The fruit of these bushes,
though black, fine-looking, and often
quite large, in nearly every case was
found to lie quite bitter or insipid. In
1sj4 a new variety of black currants
called the C'ran.lall currant Is-gan to at
tra.1 general attentioti among the fruit
growers, although it is only recently that
it lias lieoome widely knowu aud grown.
It is a common thing to see it on our mar
kets now, however, making its appearan.-e
after the early red currants have finish
ed bearing.
The department of agriculture at Wash
ingtou has taken a gr4 interest in this
new currant, and the agricultural reort
oflvi'says of iu "It is an enormous
bearer, the fruit being large, fully one
half inch In diameter. In quality, raw,
it is superior to any European black cur
rants, having no strong odor nor unpleas
ant taste. It i well adapted for sauces,
pies. Jellies, etc It is never attacked by
currant worms nor other insauts, and is
perfectly hardy."
This is a strong indorsement, but, as it
ha since become more commonly culti
vated, it proves to merit all that has been
said in its praise. The fruit begins to
ripen late in July, and continue through
out the month of August.

Here a Vice Egg Problem.
Some mighty intellects in Germantown,
says the Philadelphia llecitrd, are now
wrestling with the following problem.
It is not very difficult of solution, but baa
already beeu the cause of considerable
profanity these warm days out in that
peaceful suburb: A woman took a bask
et of eggs to the city for sale. Upon be
ing asked bow many she bad replied :
"If I take the eggs out of the basket two
at a time I have one left. If I take them
out five at a time I have one left. If I
take them out six at a time I have one
egg left ; if I take thorn out seven at a
time I have none left In the bttsket."
How many eggs had she in the basket?
W. L. McCracken, who was nominated
as the democratic candidate for Judge iu
Jefferson county, has declined.

ABSOLUTE! PURE
Aliens in State Inititnticns.
At the last session ol thr Li-jji-lattirc,
Representative Focht, of Union couuty,
introduced a resolution providing lor the
appointment of a committee often, five
from the House, three from the S.-nate
and two citizens to be appointed by the
Governor, who should visit the State
institutions and ascertain tho iiuinlier of
aliens quartered thereat the exiene of
the State. The committee met at Har
rishurg last week, when an organization
was effected.
"The intention of the committee," said
Chairman F'ocht to a reporter "is to visit
the various institutions of the Slate aud
be able to report the nunilier of aliens
now being paid for at the rate of S4 a week
by the State at the next session of the
I,cgiKlatu re. There is now a move on foot
originated by Congressman Mahon and
Stone, to take national cognizawe of the
number of foreigners in the country ou
expense to the Government. Of course.
it is not iutonded that the committee shall
go around ami whenever they find a for
eigner in any institution throw him into
the street. But we are to find out who
they are, whore they are looted, and
make our report for the puristso that tho
tiovernment to whose flag they would
apieal in case of necessity may look after
them. For they would all call oimui their
national flags for assistance w hen any
difficulty might arise aud claim pro
tection as their right. We think that it is
not right to sustain the burden of thous
ands of aliens who are not Americans,
and do not consider themselves Ameri
cans. The foreigner can not ho shipped
back without the prospect of international
ttomplications, but the Government
should pay his keep over here." The
committee adjourned to meet ut the cull
of the chairman.
Iron Filings for the SoiL
Northern fruit growers know that the
color of fruit is largely dependent on the
amount of available potash which the soil
contains. This with sunlight aids in the
devolopinent of both color aud fine flavor.
A California o ran ga grower, Mr. ti. W.
Frescott, has found that iron heightened
the color of his product and made it more
salable. His oranges were originally
very pale, but by using 5 pounds of iron
filing around his trees the color has ls-en
changi!.! to a dark yellow, with increased
quality of fruit. So much iron filings
pnnliably made the soil more opeu and
ponsis. If the iron has served as plant
food a small quantity would have lieen
sufficient.
