As with trouble, so with accidents, they
never come singly. Last week a threshing
machine exploded in the barn of John Van
scoyoc, of Antis township, Blair county.
The exploded machine was replaced by an
other thresher, but threshing had scarcely
b-gun when the cyliuder ef the second ma
chine also exploded. But with all of the
costly explosions it is a source of congrat
ulation that none of the people who worked

A mn with a peep-show of St Peter's
Church in Borne, was in town few days
ago. The building of St. Peter's Church
was what developed Martin Luther, and
brought on the Reformation which he head
ed. The reader of history remembers that
it was the sale of Indulgences in the towns
of Germany by John Tetxel, as agent for
the Pope, that aroused the spirit of Luther.
Tetzel was raising money to build St. Peter's.
The Indulgences were a full pardon for
almost every grade of crime and sin.
Lather did not believe that the end justifies
the means. But with all the historic gran
deur that clusters around St. Peters Church,
few took a peep through the showman's
door. i

uutil Sept. 19, 1877.
About a month ago a twelve year
old daughter of Rev. J. A. J William
of Roariug Spring, complained of a dif
ficulty iu swallowiug and breathing
Sbe also alleged that she bad swallow
ed a needle or a pin. Dr. Stayer was
was sent for and examined ber threat
aud also gave ber some medicine. Sbe
soon recovered and appeafed to be res
tored to ber usual health. Two weeks
ago the little girl again complained
ol tbe difficulty in ber throat. She be
came quite sick, nor did any remedy
alleviate her sufferings
One week ago Dr U. Irwin, of this
borough, was called lo consult with
Dr. Stayer in reference to tbe con
dition of the patient. They found ber
suffering with a difficulty in breathing;
ber pulse was burned ; one of tbe fin
gers of her lett band was gangrened ;
tbe left lung was apparently solidified;
there was no circulation iu the left
arm. Tbe pbysioans informed the par
ents that there wig no hope for the
child. Sbe died on Friday.
In accordance with tbe wishes of the
father a post mottem examination was
held oa Saturday by Drs. Irwin and
Stayer. In the cavity of the chest was
found a pint or more of blood. This
blood bad forced the left lung upwards,
stopping tbe circulation io tbe left arm.
It bad forced tbe heart out of its posi
tion, Over toward tbe right side, and
had also crowded tbe right lung out of
position. Tbe left lung was solidified
and gangrened. In this lung was
found a long, fine cambrie needle the
evident cause of ber death. The child
was right. She bad swallowed a need
le that bad resulted in ber death.
We do not know that we hate been
able to give tbe above facts just as tbe
physician! would state them, but We
bsvedone oar best, and I he report is
believed to be essentially Correct.
