A fisherman that wonld cap
ture ninety-four dozen of trout out

never be allowed to throw a hue in

number of fish without spoiling re
quires pretty heavy salting, and then

In many towns in this State, as
well as in towns in other States, town
authorities have passed ordinances
against the explosion of fire crackers
within borough limits. A few of the
sports grumble at the sensible objec
tion of town councils, but the great
majority of people approve of the
suppression of the fire cracker nui
sance. The Lewistown Gazette is astonish
ing the natives and everybody else
with its accounts of snakes and alli
gators. The latest snake article
reads : George Miller and sons, in
one d:iy last week, killed six rattle
snnkes in the mountains between
Manyunk and McVeytown. J. D.
Walls killed a horn, or hoop-snake
measuring five feet ten inches.
How many men and boys have con
eluded to catch the bass that swim
about the piers of the river bridge,
in the first lawful hour to catch bass;
but alas ! for their expectations, lie
fore the time arrives in which they
dare angle for the aforesaid fish, the
young bass, over which they now hold
guardianship, will be large enough to
swim away from the spawning place,
and of course the guardians will de
sport themselves in other places.
There is this consolation in the mat
ter, tho game cannot get out of the
river.
Last Friday, a short distance below
Millerstown, Perry county, on the
railroad side of the river, three col
ored boys went to the river to bathe
The children were aged 5, 10 and 13
years. The two older boys undress
ed and entered the river. The five-year-old
boy 6at on the shore, and
saw his two companions Rink out of
sight under water. He sat still and
waited for their re-appearance. By
and by his mother called him. Re
sponding to the call, by going to the
house, he was asked for the where
abouts of bis companions, when he
stated that about s half hour ago
they had " dived down in the river,
and hadn't come up yet," and that,
coupled with the fact that an hour
and a half of search in the water
found the two colored boys drowned,
is all that is known of their seeming
ly untimely taking off or drowning.
Fisa stories, without number, may
oe picited up any day, anywhere, bat
a fish story with a goose in it ia a
new thing, and then when it is a fact.
it is no story, and is all the better for
being true. Among the many men
who took a minute or two of time as
they crossed the river bridge to look
at the female bass, at the third pier,
making their ceaseless rounds of
watching their young fish, was As
sembly Garman, and while he stood
looking at the fish) a goose, one of a
flock of geese that Were swimming
about at that part of the river swam
over the spot where the young bass
lay. The mother of the ppawn be
came greatly excited, and made a
number of rapid circles around the
goose, which seemed to be utterly
unconscious of the agitation she was
creating in the fish world below.
Finally, after all efforts to attract the
attention of the goose had failed, the
game fish shot rapidly forward and
seized hold of A foot of the fowl.
That was enough to start the goose ;
it gave out a shrill, sharp cry of sur
prise and distress, flapped its wings
and left that part of the river as
speedily as it could, and all the other
geese in the vicinity followed it in
great haste and alarm. Garman has
not been sworn, does not wish to be,
his plain say so makes it a true story,
and when he gets back to Harrisburg
next winter, there will be no fellow-
member there with as true and good
a 6tory as his.

Last Wednesday evening the Misses
Pattent, and Mr. Vandyke, Jr., of
Centre, were coming to this town
quite pleasantly in a carriage. When
opposite the Mexico Foundry some
disarrangement of the harness fright
ened the horse, and by a sudden
movement he up6et the carriage. The
three occupants fell out in such a way
that their united weight so held the
top of the vehicle that when the horse
sprang away the carriage top broke
off and left the two ladies and the
gentleman out, all lying in a heap in
the road, entirely clear of the dan
gerous wreck. The horse dashed
away to the creek bordering the town
of Mexico, and after traversing it
gome distance was caught. The peo
ple were not seriously hurt. The
carriage is a complete wreck.
NEW STATION AKY ENGINE. A new
engine has just been put into operation at
the Port Royal Planing Mill, J. J. Weimer
Bro , proprietors. It wss manufactured
at the Weld on Engine and Brass Works,
and wss purchased from Mr. J. F. Jacobs,
who is the manufacturer's agent. The en
gine is a model of neatness, and the man
ner in which it works, without noise or
friction, gives entire satisfaction to the pur
chasers, who are loud in commendation of
their "little beauty." Mr. Jacobs, under
whose supervision the engine was put in
running order, deserves great credit in not
permitting the engine to pass out of bis
hands until everything about it was in per
fect working order, and the Weimer Bros,
speak of his fair dealing with them in the
highest terms of praise. The engines man
ufactured by the company Mr. Jacobs rep
resents cannot be too highly commended as
they prove to be all that ts claimed for them.
We would recommend these engines to all
who desire to purchase a first -class steam
power engine. Port Royal Timet.
