Case con tinued. The case that occupied the boardsall afternoou Monday was that of the Com nioiiwealth vs. Augustus Schropp. Mr. SchroPD was chanted upon ath of James 1). Williams with assault aud battery; carrying i-oncealed deadly weapons, and with wontonly pointing a revolver at the pnsecutor. From the evidence it seems the de fendant and his wife were at one time on the stage in the cajmcity of actor aud actress, i They then became profession al musicians and tiring of that drifted into Juniata county where they are now fanning and raising poultry. The pros ecutor and defendant at tbe time of the trouble lived neighbors in Fermanagh township and had had trouble over the trespassing of prosecutor's cattle on de fendant's land Tbe consequences was bad blood between the neighbors. Tbe defendant and his wife when on tlie staud gave evidence of their stage training. Mrs. Schropp was partk-u larly bright and smooth upon the staud and her repartee to questions of Com monwealth counsel on cross examina tion was entertaining to the audience, who are not often treated to an eloen- tionarv entertainment iu the court room. The evidence showed defen dants had penned up 12 sheep belong ing to prosecutor and which were found tresitassinir on defendant's land. De fendant notified prosecutor to come and set his sheep and pay the damages, When the prosecutor came he demand ed six dollars before he would allow the sheep to leave. An altercation follow ed, and while the evidence was very contradictory, it was not denied that defendant bit tbe prosecutor a stinging blow at the base of his right ear, the de fendant contending that he struck the prosecutor while the latter was trying to get into the stable where tbe sheep were locked up, and the prosecutor claiming be was hit while his back was turned aud he was iu the act of leav ing defendant's property in pursuance of an order to leave. After tbe prosecu tor received the blow, he announced his intention of whipping the defend ant and made an effort to take, off his coat, when the defendant drew a revol ver, and in tbe language of Mrs. Schropp -flourished it in the ah-," but did not point it at tbe prosecutor, who Immediately left tbe defendant's prop erty at the sight of the revolver apd af terwards recovered his sheep by writ of replevin. Tbe jury found tbe defend ant guilty of assault ami battery and currying concealed deadly weapons Mr. Schropp was sentenced to pay., a fine of 910 and the costs of prosecution.

The report of .viewers vacating public road leading from Mifflin town to Green Lane in Fermanagh township, confirm ed. On Tuesday morning the court took up the case of the Com. vs. James A. McMullin of Lack Twp. McMullin was charged with attempting to Influ ence Cyrus Jacobs a grand juror at tbe February term of Court. At that term of court a case M as pre sented to the Grand Jury in which John Clark of Lack was the prosecutor and a man named Lauigau was the defend ant. Juror Jacobs received a letter signed by John Wilson of Lack Twp., urging him to use his influence with his fel low jurors to have the case against I.aii igan ignored and the costs put upon tbe prosecutor. Mr. Jacobs called the attention of the court to tbe letter. An investigation was instituted. John Wilson whose name was signed to the letter, denied that he wrote it, claimed it was a forg- ery and bad McMullin arrested charged witn emnracery ana iorRery. i w wiiw iicseis wiu oe soici aunng ine -con-were framed and the grand jury at the I tinuanee of the Exposition and wi!l April term found true bills in both cases. The commonwealth put up a strong caxe against McMullin although it was entirely circumstantial and the defense onsited almost entirely in an attempt to show that the defendant McMullin was unable to write. The case went to the jury on this Wednesday morn ing. At 2.30 p m., the jury rendered a verdict, "not guilty, but pay tbe costs." The Sheriff's deeds were acknowl edged. Court has adjourue d. A BURD3D TALENI. Every person Ess some special fac- ultppwnlch if properly developed will - rt . A 1 . L 1 .oome pronciem in mat tugmiuu. Hm not God given a talent or tai nts to everyone? Unto one he gave five talents, to another two. and to another one; "Ti f very man accord- ins to his several ability. God bas created every person for some pur- pose, but woe to tbem who bnry their talent or talents in idleness. In my travels I bad an opportuni ty to speak with a man, which sug gested' the above title. Hearing of him among some of his neighbors I went to see him one evening. He greeted me very friendly and invited me in By bis appearance one wouia suppose him to be among those who seem to be unnoticed in tbe wona. He lives all alone, being a bachelor, in a large stone house. Entering the house I found no carpet on tbe floor, but to my surprise tbe one side of the room was almost filled from floor to ceiling with books, magazines and papers. He is a graduate in civil en gineering from one of the colleges in Philadelphia, and served as a naval officer for many years, but now lives a retired life. Any literary man would enjoy spending hours inspecting the var ious old books. Some dated from the ninth century and the most pop ular magazines in print with others now almost unknown all carefully arranged and preserved. In other rooms be showed me many ol nis oldest books, which be had b to red sway. On the floors of these rooms were numerous daily and weekly pa pers neatly arranged from the date received. Some of these papers are so old that time has faded the print almost beyond one's power to read them. Having spent some time in showing one bis collection of books and papers, I enquired about his manner of living, since his appear anoe showed signs of delicate health. We then entered another room where I was shown enoagh canned fruit to last any ordinary family many years. By this I knew his principal diet was fruit. He attends bis own garden, does bis own noose work, which some women would be ashamed to compete with only for tbe want of carpet, and cans most of his fruit In education and knowledge of all tbe great modern subjects in life, he is equal to many ol our great men. His conversation is very forcible aod glows with power of clearness in the explanation of any difficult subject. With all bis education and weaun ne seems to be satisfied that it was all given for self gratification and makes no effort to use it lor tbe beneni ot mankind. I questioned him as to the responsibility resting upon one so talented, bat be gave me no satis factory answer 'and cared little to speak further of it. As I left this man the parable of the talents given by Christ in the twenty-fifth chapter of Matthew flash- ea across my mina. In such thought and prayerful meditation I send tbis little descrip tion forth on its message of warning to some wayfaring man, who may be following tbe example of this man. Sketches bt thi Wat.

Tfeo Corloos Seats Tbat The Imaje ftovo Ineoets Coooiraet. A curious species of Insect Is the trapdoor spider, whose uest consists of a tube excavated in the earth to the depth of six or eight Inches. It Is al ways lined with silk, and it Is cloaed with an ingeniously constructed door. One sort of door closes Into the nest like a cork In a bottle, another Is as thin as a piece of paper. In all cases tbe door opens outward, and when tbe nest is placed, as It usu; ally Is, on a sloping bank. It opens up ward, so that there Is no fear of its gaping. The object of -the trapdoor Is to conceal the nest, and consequently It Is always made to resemble the gen eral surface of tbe ground. Sometimes, however, sn enemy attempts to open the door, and then the Inmate braces Its legs against the sides of the nest and holds It as fast as possible. Still other spiders have Inner doors besides outer, so tbat If their first de fense be carried they may have anoth er behind which to retreat. More cari ous still Is the Ingenuity of tbe branch trapdoor-that Is to say, a door tbat opens from tbe main tunnel of the nest Into a side branch, which tbe stranger could discover, since there is nothing to distinguish It from any oth er part of the main nest. So, then. If an enemy should effect an entrance the lawful occupant of the nest can quietly slip Into the side branch, close 'tbe door and there remain In security while the Intruder wonders what has become of ber.

Upon a number of occasions the edi tor and members of his family, found large cat-fish near tbe pig stye, where tabby has a family of joung kittens At first tbe supposition on our part was tbat the cat bad stolen the fish from some of tbe neighbors, but diligent inquiry failed to give us any light on tbe subject, while tbe frequency of tbe occurence led us to the conclusion that she caught the fish by some means or other, and when on Monday morning we found cat and kittens regaling, themselves oS a large green bull-frog, we were more convinced than ever, that our theory was correct. We at once made inquiry and learned from Charles I Miller that he . frequently ssw a black cat up at the old basin, which is beta? filled no and which contains a number of fish. .There is no donbt bat that puss sits on the bank and watches until a fish comes out in the shallow water, when she pounces down on it and carries it home to her little family.
