A Collii dog yalued at ten thou
sand dollars was brougkt from Scot
land to New York last week.
The Republican Senate will inves-
tigate the Auditor General and State
Treasurer and that takes the wind
out of Governor Pattison's political
campaign sail.
- If there is anything crooked in
the management of the Auditor Gen
eral and State Treasurer departments,
the republicans are as anxious to
have it revealed as any other people.
John D. Rockefeller, who has the
largest annual income of any man in
America has spent the summer work
ing on his Ohio farm, just as if he wbb
a common laborer, and doing quite as
much labor as any of his hired men,
He lias done it in the pursuit of
health."
Now boys, don't all 6tart for Lin
coin, Kan., to propose marriage when
you are told that one of the most
productive farms near that city is
tilled by Miss Hannah Baker, daugh.
ter of Congressman Baker. Miss
Baker wears troupers like a man,
plows, sows and reaps, and, with the
aid of another woman, does all the
field work on her 140 acre farm
which she owns free of debt She
is but 24 years old, and has been a
farmer four years.
x REvror9 to the opinion of the
supreme Court reversing Judge
Bucher in the Mifflintown bridge
case, a good deal of unfair election
eering bad been done against Mr.
Lyons. An effort was made to have it
appear that it was his fault that such
a large verdict was obtained against
the county for the bridge. Jadge
Faxton's opinion however proves that
such was not the case, for his op
inion states that Judge Bucher was
reversed because be would not admit
the sworen statement of the bridge
officers as to the value of the bridge
slock. It was Mr. Lyons who want
ed to present the statement of the
officers of the bridge company as to
the value of the stock as evidence to
base a verdict on, but he was ruled
out by Buoher. No tlie hoot is on
the other leg. If the evidenoe that
Jlr. Lyons proposed to offer and
which tLe r.t,;---- i &
Court clearly shows that he was cor
rect in offering, had been accepted
by Bucher the verdict would have
been different and Bucher would not
have been reversed.
McCtxag clubfl are being organiz
ed in Snyder, Union and Mifflin
counties by republicans as a means
to present Judge Bucher from run
ning away with the district the third
time. Judge Bucher 's fine spun
theory of a non partiaian campaign
means that everybody that it is pos
sible to influence shall be worked in
to voting for the Democratic ticket.
In the judge's mind that is a good
thing when it is to elect democrats
to office, but it is a dreadful thing
when it is to be applied to the elec
tion of Republicans. The Republi
cans of the district are in a majority
and outside of the district it is
a i
matter of general Wonder that the;
have permitted Bucher to take, them
by their political no;,0 and lead
them into the democratic fold just
every time it suits him to do so.
But witbin the past ten days the
Republicans have changed their
minds and they are now going into
tbe contest like men of courage.
-Juniata Republicans are always cour
ageous, but just now they may get
soute inspiration from the manner in
which the Bucbor district republi
5trs are going into the contest.
The Republicans in Juniata have a
jiuruber one ticket and the thing to
do is to battle for its election.
Playing Heathen.
Huntingdon Journal: On Sunday
last wliile a certain young lady was
on her way home from church she
called at her parents' residence for
a few minutes. While she was there
two ci ner uroiners came in witn a
largo bag full of wild grapes The
sister looked at them a moment and
then asked if they were not ashamed
to break the Sabbath m this way,
The reply was in the negative, and
finally she left for her own home,
thinking probably that her husband
would have dinner pretty well start
ed. W hen she reached the house it
was all closed up and no husband to
be seen. She bg.in making prepar
ations for dinner when in the back
door came her husband with a bag
of chestnuts. Sue was perfectly out
wit ted, but mustered up enough
courage to tell him that he had been
playing heathen and that she would
not eat chestnuts that had been gath
ered on Sunday. The husband smil
ed contentedly as he looked at the
big bag of chestnuts which upon the
refusal of his wife to eat any of them
would be entirely lor himself.
Whether the lady has changed her
mind we are unable to say.

exciting scenes in its history. De
tectives have been at work on the

have arrested four persons supposed
to be connected with it. Samuel

was arrested last night chirked with
complicity in the burning: of the rec

Lavelle, a brother of the auditor.
Harbine's story is that Lavelle
hired h'in to burn the court house
for $500, only $5 of which have been
paid. It is reported that Ledger

evidence. He claims to have been
given a house and lot for his part in
the crime. Auditor LnveHe's bonds,
men, becoming frightened at the
turn affairs were taking, required
him to turn all his property over to
them. Lavelle has been auditor of
the county for eight years and the
fact that the people had confidence
in him makes his arrest and accusa
tion of the court house fire the sensa
tion of tbe hour. It is supposed
that he is short in his accounts, but
no one knows the amount. Experts

of the Bridge company was offered
before Judge Bucher to prove the

trying to get a verdict for seventy

to their own valuation was not worth
sixteen thousand dollars, andlbecause
