Joseph Yarns, aged 26, of Farno, Clinton township, was, Inst Friday, committed to tho county jail by Justice of the Peace. Hobert A. Smith, of this borough. Tbo prisoner, who w.n mar ried flvo years ago, appears to have mado an unsatisfactory choice in bis selection of a wifo, and about four years ago tbo pair aspirated. Eveotually th; young man returned to the noma of bis parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jam 33 W. Yarns, who livo on "The Island" in While Oik pood, CUntoo township.

On Monday morning Dr. Nobloand poormaster V. W. Hopkins, with the father of tho young man, came to Uoneedalo expecting to secure his immediate release and removal to an in Sino hospital on tho certificates of two physicians and tbe concurrence of tbe Clinton township poor board. Thetr application was denied, howevor, the eberifl being instructed by counsel that nothing further could bo done until tbe roiuru w iuwq ui juogo t'uray, ana toe action of a committeo tie lunatico in quirendo appointed by bim. This view is vigorously contested by Dr. Noble and others interested in the case, who contend that tho young man, not being charged with any criminal offense, can not lawfully bo confined in the county jail merely because of a disordered mind, Ififcul should bo sent to an institution where he, can ba properly treated.

At the outset bis own sitisfaction inspired Mr. Day to perform these duties. Later he was encouraged by tbo weather bureau and appointed quasi weather observer.

Owing to tho tremendous demands tho fund for tbo pamenl of bounties upon tha scalps of noxious animals ap propriated by the Lgislaturo of V.M7, has been exhausted in only one-half tho time which tho sum was expected to cover. Last week Auditor ucneral Young was confronted with bills amounting to 22,U7U and found but 12,347 remaining in tho iW.OOO fund. and tbe bills from forty-throe counties bad to ba pro-rated, each county receiv ing 10 and a fraction per cent. Tbo ap propriation made last year was f50 (KM, of which (1 was ofleroi for a wildcat, (2 for a fox and f 1 ouch for minks and weasols. Thero was a tremendous rush for tbe money from almost ovory coun ty and ono man named Qwopo, living in Huntingdon, roceived 1, 50u at one time. In other counties hunters turned in and mado a good living hunting down tbe proscribed animals. Tho Legislature fixed January and June as the time for turniog in tbe scalps and when tbo payments were made for tbe first month of Ibis year they vory near ly exhausted tho fund. Tbo bills turn ed in by counties cannot be paid in full, only 10 per cent, being allowed, and they will have to look to tbe next Leg islature for reimbursement. It a bill is passed to meet tbe deficiency, (100,000 will bo recommended for tbe purpose, Mrs. Margaret (Murray) Leonard, widow o! Micbaet L-ooard. who met his death four years ago by falling from a load of hay, ended her life on Wednes day morning of last week, August 12th, by swallowing two ounces of carbolic acid, at ber home in Canaan township, n short distance from the outlet of Lake Lodoro. Mrs. Leonard retired at her usual hour on Tuesday evening, but in a very despondent mood. In the early hours of the day she had eoemcd more than ordinarily bright and hopeful, but in the afternoon became depressed, and told other members of tbe household that she "could not live longer." Aa. as had often declared that ber life was not worth living no particular woight was given to ber words on this occasion but when ber daughter Mary arose in the morning, Mrs. Leonard was found lying dead on a couch in the sitting room, an emDtv carbolic acid bottle clearly indicating the means adopted for nutting an end to ber life. The poison bad been purchased for tbe prep aration of a wash to keep Dice from at." noy iog the cattle, and bod been in tbe bouse for some time. Tbe suicide bad been afilicted with a acinous stomach trouble for some years, and bad beeu treated br different physicians with but little relief. To case herself of some of the burdens of life she sold her farm shortly after the death of ber husband for t3,3"U, investing a portion of the proceeds in a smaller place, located far ther in the woods. She soon repented of tbo change, and fcllintoamelancholj inood, which was no doubt agravated by her ph steal ailmect, and resulting fiddly in such mental derangement as t o lead ber to self-destruction. Uaroner Dr. U. IS. Scarlce, who woe summoned after learning tbo circumstances attend ing tbe death of Mrs. Leonard, decided that an icauest was unnecessary. The unfortunate lady was a natwe of Cherry Kidge township, and ber forty-eight years of life were spent there and in Canaan, where she was beld in tbe high, est respect. At the ago of eighteen she was married to Michael Leonard, and and has left a family of five children. Mrs. Elizahctb Collins, of Carbondale Katberino, of Hooesdale, and Mary, Margaret and John at home. She is alto survived by ber mother, Mrs. Hugh Murray, a brother, John, end three sin ters.

Thursday lost was tbe twentieth an niversary of tbe big Erie wreck, a short iisUneo west of Sboholo, which oc- cuned on Monday, August 13, 1883 Owiag to heavy rains a landslide baa taken place, covering tbe track with aarth and rocks. Train 64, an east- oou-id freight, ran into the mass, the engine being thrown over on to the ves -bound track and four cars being wrecked. No. 3, the west-bound express, was nearly due at that point and a brake- man of tbe wrecked train took a lantern and tried to signal the flyer, but was too late. No. 30 engine ran into the loco motive of No. 84, and then rolled down the eighty feet embankment to tbe river's edgo, followed by a stock car, : mtaiuiog seven toenBno running horses oelooging to Fred. Qebbardt and Mrs. Lanlry, "tho Jersey Lily," a baggage car, mail car, smoker ana one day coach. Five passenger cars, including thtea Pullmans, remained on the track. The cars which went down tbe bank took Ore, and the passengers were res cued with great difficulty, about forty being injured. John Kiosilla, engineer of No. 3, was scalded about tbe face, and Alexander Newman was killed. Nine trainmen and other employees on No.-3 were injured. Of the crew of No. S4, Engineer M. F. Fritz, who now lives io Uonosdale, and runs trains 30 and 1 1 r. botween this place and Port Jervie, was injured about tbo bead and face; fireman Uagan had both arms broken, and conductor Long's back was injured. All of tho horses, estimated to bo wortb (3M ooii, were burned to death or badly iojurcl with the exception of two. Some of tho most seriously iojurod among the passengers and trainmen were taken over tbo river to Barryville for treat ment, but most of them were removod to Port Jervis hospitals.

Tho Shoemakers' outing on Tuesday last was the complete success which the parade and open air band concert of Monday evening foreshadowed. Tbe weather was charming throughout tbe entire day, and notwithstanding the immense crowds attending the excur ion to Lake Lodoro and participating in tbe various enjoyments of that pop ular resort, not a mishap occurred to mar the pleasure of a single Individual. Thanks to the copious shower of a few days previous, tbe interdiction as to the use of fireworks during tbe parado was removod, and the ehowy turnout of onioo members, enlivened by the fine music of tbe Hooesdale band and Maple City dram corpe, was made brilliant by tbe constant blaze of red light and an incessant discbarge ot roman candle. The concert in Union Depot Park, after the parade, attracted one of tbe largest open air crowds ever men in Hooesdale, and tbe immense audience testified to their appreciation of the fine music by abundant applause. Tbe band, under the baton of Conductor Wagner, never played better, and tbe vocal trio, Messrs Jones, Jenkins and Bodie, rendered several selections most acceptably. The excursion train oa Tuesday took many hundreds ot our townspeople to Lake Lodoro, and the crowd there was large ly augmented by parties from Carbon- dale and farther down tbe valley. On tho grounds there were abundant di versions to suit every taste, from s Janes in tbo grand pavilion to a barge ride on the beautiful lake, and choice refreshment, prepared by tbo Ladies' Label League, were supplied in ample quantities. Tbe last excursion train. which left tbe lake shortly after seven o'clock, brought everybody safely home. out itself met with a slight mishap when the locomotive bad just passed tbe Ddrlaod-rhompaoo factory near tbe lapot. In taking tbs switch for the station, tba front truck aad drivers of tbe engine left the track, and tba train of seventeen passenger cars, though uoving very slowly, was brought to suchaiulden standstill as to (rive the passengers a decided shake up and create a miniature panic, with no bad results, however.
