As HOUR OF TEnnon.—There arriv
ed in the city Priday morning over the
Grand Trunk Railway a man named
Patrick IlleArthuryho met with a
adventure about six mike east of the
junction Thursday night. He is a labor
ing man, and having no meney, and fail
ing to get a chance to work his passage
dawn from Port Huron on a boat he
started to walk down on the railroad
track; 'While crossing the tracks Where
a scidteli leads doWn alongside the main
track he got his foot caught fast in a
'frog' and his 'efforts t.(' extricate it were
of no avail. In fact; the boot was' wedged
in the 'frog' so closely that the man's toed
were severely pinched: He pulled this
Way and that, wrenched and twisted, but
the Treg' held the foot like a vise.
At length he could hardly ramie Ins .
leg for the pain, and he found that he
must either be run over by the net pas
sing train or terske some oite understand
situation.- -After-the--man----fatd—been
a prisoner for upward of an hour he
heard the whistle of a down freight fruity
He bad a match bter in his packet, pa=
pens its his bundle, and the Idea came td'
him to signal the train. fcaring the pa: ,
per off his bundle and getting at a • num
ber of letters; he rolled them into d heap,
and for fear that the tient° would die out
too suddenly he added two flannel shirts
from the bundle: 'ilte bundle was then
made fast to the end of his walking stick ;
Matches prodnced, and he waited until
the head light of the locornetiVe'shotild
appear up the tfaak.
It finally gfeeted his vision , looking.
like a bright white star, as it glistened
afar up the track. The rumble of the
train grew louder ; the star grew larger
and brighter. He struck his match.—
TheJame_blasefinp-hrightly-r-but--as
moved it toward the bundle a little gust
ttf wind blew it out. Was there time-vet?-
rp the track he could hear the thunder
of a hundred heavy wheels, and the great
light of the locomotive glared at him Like
the fiery eye of some wild beast. Another
Klatch, an instant of fear and - doubt, and
then the gaper blazed-tip-and-curled-ave

signal of back and forth, and jtlst
when he was ready to believe that death
under the wheels was certain he heard

He could hear the thddiN grinding and

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.—Mrs. Bailee]
Devine, who lives with her husband and
three children at No. 35 North Eighth
street, Brooklyn, N. Y., last Tuesday
morning, shortly after rising,eame behind
her husband and struck him a violent
blow on the head with a cooper's adze.—
He Pushed to the station-house - and had
his wound dressed: Officers immediately
started for the house, and on arriving
there discovered that the woman had mur
dered her three children, Maggie, James
and Timothy, aged respectively 7, 4 and
2 years It appears that after her hus
band left the house she seized a large flat
iron and beat the children's brains out
with it. On being asked wilt' she had mur
dered her children, she said that she was
Ong to heaven and wanted her children
to go before her. Devine's skull is frac
tured, and his injuries will probably prove
fatal. He ha's been on a strike for a creek
past, and thinks that led to his wife's de
rangetnent.

FEW=PM. ACCIDENT.—One of the
most shocking accidents that we have ev
er been called upon to chronicle happened
on Monday evening last on the Western
Maryland Railroad at its northern en
trance into this town. A pretty and in
teresting little girl, aged between eleven
and twelve years, named Florence Hersh-
Der, whose parents reside on the Green
ctmtle road near where the above named
railroad crosses It, in the ttorthera au
herbs- of the town, a few moments before
the freight train going East was expected,
placed a couple of pins one upon the oth
er upon one of the rails in order that they
might be flattened into what the little in
nocent termed a pair of scissors. it seem's
that occasionally at this point of the road
the locomotive is detached from the cars
for some purpose or other and it was the
case on Monday evening. When thecars
are detached, the locomotive, of course,
runs ahead. The child watching the mov-
lug engine and not thinking of anything
being in its fear, rushed matt to the track
to get her pins, when, just as she stooped ;
a car came down Upon het severing both
of her legs from the bodylabove the knees,
leaving them upon the track, dragging
her fully one hundred yards and.fmany
dropping her insensible form into a cat
tle guard, from which it was shortly after
lifted and carried to her home. The best
surgical assistance was promptly summon
ed, but the injuries were found to be so
extensive as to preclude any possibility of
recovery, and they were, fortunately, so
great as to have paralyzed her beyond• the
sense of pain. She lingered on until yes-
terday tnorhing perfectly conscious, how=
ever, when she died at about tett o'clock,

RADESMAN'S Buar..m—The Agent
far the Cumberland Valley Tradesman's
Bureau is now convassing oui town.—
This enterprise of Messrs. Allen Bieck: &
Co. of Philadelphia who are establishing
a• Commercial Agency and Collecting
Bureau. should interest business men of
all classes. The Pabiid 0 inion en s :—;
"The agency affords to the merchants and
business men generally through the at
tbrneys, appointed through the United
States, a speedy and reliable system of
collecting accounts long over due and of
ten considered by creditors worthless. In
connection with the above, the company
issue reports to members showing the
names and post office address of parties
from whom demands ate uncollectable,
thus preventing members from extending
credit to customers who have been closed
out'of one business house, and who go to
another. Members are furnished with
blanks upon which to make up their past
due accounts and place them in the bands
of the several attorneys for collvdtio%."
Believing the time propitious andrthat
the commercial interests of this section
would be 'greatly enhanced by the estab
lishment of such agency, we take plea
sure in commending him to you, being
fully satisfied of the responsibility and
respectability of company and agents.
THE HAIL STORM.—The hail storm in.
the neighborhood of the Marsh, noticed in
our last issue was more destructive to the
crops than what was 'first reported. In
addition to those already mentioned, the
crops of the following rersons were either
entirely destroyed or very considerably
damaged: Jacob Stine, (tenant on Vadiel
M. Baker's farm) Hillery Gossert s (tenant
on Christian Beaver's farm) Samuel Mar
tin, Abrm. Strite, Henry Miller, George
Itnger, Joseph Shank, Henry Scheiter.
e latter suffered the losi of about eighty
window lights. We understand very eon
siderakle damage was done to the grass,
corn and fruit. Mr. John Harbatigh i
'Wlia it seems was also in the track of the
storm had to . re-plant one field of coin.
Several of the parties above mentioned
were new beginers, upon whom the loss
will fall heavily.
Tte..At a meeting of the managers dr
the Franklin County Bible Society, held
June Ist, 1874, the following was adopt
ed :
In view of the fact : that the Lcrd lies
lately called to hitnslf the President of
this Society, Rev: B. fi: Schneek, D. D.
therefore
Resolved That We feenill our sense of
thezreat loss we have sustained by his
removal.
Resolved, That In our brother, Dr.
Schneck, our Society recognized a most
efficient worker in the cause which it
seeks to advancp: a most admirable and
competent officer; and also, a christian
in whose life and character were beauti
fully illustrated the great rrinciples of
our - holy religion.
Resolved, That we tender to the afflict,

sympathy in this day of their great trial.

LITERARY Cttßiostrit3.—A fe* days
since we dropped into the office. of Dr.,
Benj. Frantz 'in this place where we saw
two German Medical works of very an
cient dates. ; One •is three hundred and
forty-two years old, having been printed
in 1532, forty years after the discovery '1;
America by Columbus; the other is two
hundred -and fifty-five years old, having
been printed in 1619, twenty-one years
previous td the landing of the Pilgrims in
Mossachusetts. The printing is plain, pa
per strong and binding still substantial.—
The state of preservation •in which they
are found is surprising. The works seem
to be complete, embrwiqng all branches of
medical science as far as discovery went
at those very remote periods. The paper
is much heatier than the quality now us

Outt Bratiitss Hours.—lt has long
since been the custon of our business teen
in Waynesboro' to prolong, their day's In.
bor by confining themeeltet to their store
rooms late, late at night. This is j'et the
rule, and we cry aloud against it. IloW
ever great the ambition be for the miykj
dollar, we deem it improper for men to
shorten their days by close confinement
to storerooms. This system so practiceed
in Waynesboro',we wish would be brought
to a close. Often we hare passed the stores
long after nightfall and pittied the poor
clerks as we saw them, with countenances
expressive of weariness of a long day's
work. Yes,we may Well say a long day's
work, whets we set them work seventeen
or eighteen hours out of every twenty
four, giving from six to eight hours fbr
recreation and sleep. Is this the medicine
you use for health and long life? Surely
en - you shouldwane your life, e
know there is a class of men who will loaf
and lounge about the streets and shops un
til bedtime, and then attend to purchasing
what they want, keeping the storekeepers
from a good night's rest, and depriving
them from attending to duties outside of
the storeroom. How much better would
it be for those people to be at home with
there families, and let others have a little
time to look around too. We hope some
one will make a move (as we believe it
was suggested) to close the stores' during
these warm summer months at eight
clock. It will not take long to get the ,
people in the way of attending to their
busin - e.ss - during deC - ent - tb - 3iniss hours:
BIJILNING ASSOCIATIONBi—The
si-gßociation-bill-which-passed-the-1
Legislature, and has Deceived the signa

to loan money on any security the asso

the old law, which prohibits the loaning
ef money except upott feel estate securi

elausie :

and franchise of loaning or advancing to

cumulated from time to time, and the

sprain, cut, iodise, cough and cold.
