—Among the death notices, this week, is
that of Aaron Vogeley, son of Geo. Vogcley,

—Our City Fathers are considering the
idea of establishing grades for all our streets
an ! sidewalks. This is a good idea and tiie
sooner it is done the better, but the trouble
will be to find a suitable base. The Dia
mond would seein to be the proper starting
]>oint, but by general consent, the street in
front of the Court House should come down
at least two feet.
—Here is a nut for the school boy to crack:
'•A clerk counted out a basket of eggs, took
out two at a time and one remained; he took
out three at a time and one remained; he
took oiit four at a time and one remained;
five at a time and one remained; six at a time
and one remained; but when he took out
seven at a time none remained. How many
eggs were in the basket?"
—A draft has been made of the addition to
the North Cemetery and also of the new
Catholic Cemetery. The Directors of the
two cemeteries met the other night and
agreed to have but one entrauce for both, a
broad roadway to separate them. Twenty
acres will be added to the North Cemetery-,
and the Catholic Cemetery will also contain
twenty acres.
—A rather singular accident befell the lit
tle 5-year-old daughter of B. C. Ithodes, of
New Castle, last Monday. She was playing
with several children, who were tossing
gravel iu the park. One of the smallest peb
bles, falling on the little one's head, punctur
ed an artery. The child fell instantly in an
unconscious condition. The little one is now
out of danger.
—The law prohibiting the killing of a calf
before it has attained the proper age is very
stringent. It provides "that any person who
kills or causes to be killed, with intent to
sell the meat for family use, a calf less than
lour weeks, or knowingly sells or has in his
possession such meat, with the intent to sell
the same for such use to foreign market,
shall be imprisoned not more than sis
months or fined more than S3OO.
—The saying that "lightning never strikes
twice in the snme place" is contradicted by
the experience of Mrs. Peter Biehl, who
while sitting on lier back porch during the
thunder storm of last Wednesday afternoon,
saw the lightning strike the brick pavement
between the porch and the pump twice iu the
same place, and throw bricks and cinders to
a distance of seventy-five feet. A pine tree
in the Orphans' Home grounds was struck
during the same storm.
—The latest snake story cn-ues from Woos
tcr, 0., as follows: While Miss Emma Saal
was sweeping, a milk snake over two feet in
length secreted itself among the folds of her
skirts and crawled to her waist, where it re
mained while she went calling. She felt the
snake, but supposed the feeling was caused
by a disarrangement of her wearing apparel.
Several house later the snake was accident
ally discovered coiled around her ankle, from
which it was dislodged and killed.
—Another is added to the list of remark
able surgical operations performed in differ
ent parts of the country within a short time.
It was in the case of a man at Buffalo who
had taken aa over-dose of morphia. When
the physicans reached him he had been un
conscious for two hours. It was a case for a
desperate remedy and they resorted to it.
They opened the trachea, inserted a tube aud
kept up respiration by means of a be!lo r j.
He began to revive at once and before the
doctors left him was out of danger. This is
the first experiment of the kind so far as
known, as a cure for opium poisoning. The
secret is merely in keeping the lungs filled
with oxygen by artificial means.
—An exchange has analyzed the word
"picnic," aud corues to the conclusion that it
is derived from the words "peck"—to nibble,
and "nack"—a trifle, anil that a picnic is an
occasion at which you nibble at trilles. Such
a slanderous analysis should not 1> > allowed
to go uncontroverted. We examined the
baskets for a party of four that took in a pic
nic at Slipperyroo.k Park the other day aud
can swear to the following list of contents:
Six pounds of roast beef, two roasted chick
ens, two large cakes, and several dozen small
ones, four pies, two loaves of bread, two
qnarts of coffee, one jar preserved fruit, but
ter, jelly, pickles, oranges, bananas, etc.
They ate two meals and there was none left,
and if that was a ease of nibbling at trilles.
the world ought to know it.
—The people of Beaver Falls were startled
by an explosion last Tuesday morning and up
on hurrj ing to the spot from which the sound
proceeded it was found that a barrel of New
Orleans molasses, lctt standing in the yard ol
W. T. Anderson's grocery, had fermented to
such a degree from the hot rays of the sun
that it had burst the heavy woodeu hoops
with terrific force and sent the staves and
liquid sweetness flying in every direction.
A paling fence was badly wrecked and a
grape-arbor near by was almost demolished.
A clerk narrowly escaped the living frag
ments and ran for his life, while a little lad,
who had been peering in through the fence
at the time of the explosion, was found lying
on the pavement completely drenched with
the sticky substance ami crying bitterly.
Further than a sweet bath lie was not injur
ed. The affair caused much excitement and
plenty of amusement when the cause of it
was atcertaintd.
During the h"t weather, when exjiosed
to the sun, headache, giddiness, nausea and
disturbance of sight, accompanied with great
prostration of the physical forces are indica
tions that sunstroke is probably imminent.
The best plan is to immediately retire to a
cool place, and apply some simple restora
tives as aromatic ammonia, aud it can uo
doubt be prevented. Those exhausted witli
the heat haye a cool moist skin, a rapid,
weak pulse aud the pupil is dilated. Im
mediate unconsciousness frequently results
from heat apoplexy, and is likely to prove
fatal. Hot foot baths, bleeding, etc., is the
best treatment in such cases. In thermic
fever the patient is unconscious aud convuls
ed, and the body temperature may be 10 de
grees above the normal state, ami the skiu is
very hot. An application of ice to the head
and cold water to the body is the best treat
ment, as the object is to cool the body im
mediately. It is always best to obtain medi
cal adyice iu serious cases, — Ex.
The Fate Of Explorer Stanley.
The report of the death of Henry
M. Stanley, the African explorer, in
that far-off land, caused a shock of
surprise and a feeling of sorrow
throughout Christondoni. Mr- Stan
ley has done much for civilization, and
was in a fair way to do more. He
has written his name high on the
temple of fame, and will be remem
bered with Livingstone, while the
English language survives. Some
comfort may be found in the fact that
the story of his sad and premature
death is discredited in England and
Belgium, where hi? movements have
been closely watched- Let us hope
the rumor is without foundation, and
that the brave, tireless explorer may
be spared for many years, to further
advance the great work he has done
so much to forward in the "dark
continent."

NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES.
—The ac< uminu(iation on the B. &
O. It. 11. tin' left. ihe Grant street
station iii i'iitsburg, last Sunday at
3:20 p in. ran into an open pwitch at
Second avenue, and the engine, bag
gage ear and passenger ear were pre
cipitated to the street below, a dis
taner of about twelve feet. The en
gineer was so badly scalded and
burned that he died that night, the
fireuians arm was broken, aud six
passengers received injuries, some of
which may prove fatal.
—Several sites at Beaver Falls
have been looked at by Pittsburg.
Cleveland and Beaver Falls capital
ists for the establishment of a large
brass foundry atd in a few days a
meeting of those interested will be
held and a company formed. It is
said the coucern will manufacture
brass and bronze novelties and will
be quite extensive, giving employ
ment to 250 hands. Natural gas is
doing it.
—After an incendiary fire on Sat
urday night, at Meadville, which
partially destreyed a barn, a half
witted boy named Ritenour was ar
rested near the building and confess
ed that he burned it. It is thought
he has started all the incendiary fires
there of late,
—Forest fires are raging with fury
in part of the northern oil field, in all
sections traversed by railways. In the
Cherry Grove district the fires are
especially severe: The intense heat,
the dryness of the soil and the scarci
ty of water all conspire to increase
the danger and hardships of the situ
ation. Six wells and six dwelling
houses at Cherry Grove have already
been burned. Empty or partly emp
ty nitro-glycerine cans, scattered
through the wcods, were popping
away at intervals yesterday increas
ing the danger of fighting fire.
—Perhaps a Now Castle incident
may be of 801118 interest to people
who sometimes pick up stray cats
and other pets. Mrs. David Jones
playfully picked up a cat while on
her way home last Saturday evening.
It had a tit soon after and bit her on
the arm, and ut last reports she was
suffering tereiblv, her arm having
swollen in a frightful manner.
—As a sign of the times the Coch
ranton Times notes the following:
Harvest hands seem to be getting
scarcer in this part of the country
with each succeeding year and those
farmers who can afford it, are buying
self-binding machines. About twen
ty of these muchiues have been sold
in this vicinity this year, and in a few
years more the self-binder will bo as
popular as is now the common side
delivery reaper.
—lf there is anything especially
captivating to the average citizen of
Youngstown, its a new gambling de
vice. They've got "fiy-loo," started
over there, and hundreds of the men
kill time these hot days playing it.
The dispensers of "light summer
drinks" furnish the accommodations
and tools, which consist of chairs, a
round table and a small lump of coffee
sugar for each player. The players
sit around the table on which, direct
ly in front of him, each places his
lump of sugar. The first fly to alight
on one of the lumps counts the party
owning the lump "out," and so on
until the last man, who is obliged to
"set'em up." The sport is said to
be very exciting.
—A terrible accident occurred near
Edenburg, Lawrence county, Thurs
day afternoon, the particulars of
which are as follows: James Parks,
son of Mr. Lewis Parks, was cutting
hay with a mowing machine. lie
made a cut along ono side of the field,
and was coming back cutting next to
the fence. There is a large tree close
to the fence, in the shade of which
several boys were resting. As the
mowing machine came by the tree,
one of the boys, named Michael
Doyle, a son of P.C.&T. section boss
Doyle, aged about 10 years, jumped
out from under the tree, immediately
in front of the knives, which he sup
posed were on the other sido of the
machine. Before Mr. Parks could
stop his team the knives struck the
lad, severing the arteries and cutting
clear through the large bone and al
most through the small bono of the
right leg, about three inches above
the ankle, and inflicting a severe flesh
wound in his left leg.
The Flight of a Circus.
Mr. J. J. O'Brien, the circu3 man,
in Albany the other day, found him
self broke and his property liable to
be taken for d&bt. lie wanted to
reach Philadelphia with his animals,
somehow for he aud they would be
safe there. He had advertised to
parade the streets of Albany that day,
and the procession started out from
the tents in good order with colors
flying. The Sheriff who was waiting
at the tents with an attachment, and
the employees, who had been promis
ed their pny on that day, began to
get anxious when the procession did
not get back for two or three hours,
and feared it had met with an acci
dent. The reason for its non-appear
ance lay in the circumstance that Mr.
O'Brien had extended the route of the
parade to Coxsackie, and shipped the
procession to Jersey City. Pursuit
was made by the next express train;
but O'Brien had the advantage of
Sunday when processes don't issue iu
New Jersey. The next day O'Brien
and his animals disappeared. Warn
ing is given that any person with
four elephants, eighteen horses, two
lions, two camels, one yak, two sacred
bulls, a zebra, an ourangoutang,
three kangaroos aud a boa constrictor
in his possession may be assured that
it is Mr. O'Brien and his circus on
the way to Philadelphia. But look
out for the vicious elephant when
making arrests.
A Valuable Piece of Ground.
A piece of land in Philadelphia,
with a frontage of 1G feet on Chest
nut and 31 feet on Fourth street,
was recently sold for $85,000, or
SISG per square foot. It was neces
sary to complete a building site in
the city, and commanded this extra
ordinary figure. This is the highest
price ever paid for real estatae in
America. The one next to it. per

square foot. The Philadelphia price
was at a rate of $0,800,000 per acre.

The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company Las decided to m ve the
iron bridge at Summerbill, 14 miles
west of Cresson, and replace it with
a stone bridge. The idea is to move
the iron bridge without interfering
with the passage of trains It is of
three spans, aud weighs 300 tons-
The work proposed is regarded as a
line piece of engineering, and will ex
cite geueral interest.
—Blaine and Garfield years ago
went to England together, when
neither was much known to fame.
Just before the former set out for his
present visit he said with somewhat
of a sigh : "I doubt if I shall have as
good a time as Garfield and I did
when visiting the old houses and
country seats. We got to see them
all in the most perfect manner by
simply 'tipping' the servants and
walking in at the back door. I pre
sume if I see these old places again I
shall have to go in at the front door,
but really I think the old way more
enjoyable.

men have left the Knights of Labor

—A colored man named Rider,
aged 42, was arrested in New York,
Friday, for eating a cat found dead.
He said he wes told in his dreams to
do it so that his relatives might have
peace in heaven. The police officer
tore the animal from Rider's grasp.
Both its hind legs had been eaten,
and several portions of the neck.
Rider became frantic on being pre

the cat, and it required two officers
to take him to the station house.

Stanley, the explorerer, is some

—A man who had stolen $75,000
from the Vienna Post Office was ar
rested on his arrival in New York on

Wreck Near Foxburg.
From Pittsburg Com-Gazette.]
On, CITY, PA., July 27.—About
noon to-day a collision occurred on
the Pittsburg & Western railroad,
near Foxburg, which resulted in in
stantly killing one passenger and fa
tally injuring another, besides inflict
ing a number of minor bruises upou
several others. A passenger train
on the narrow guage was backing up
the hill at Foxburg over a series of
"switch backs" that are necessary in
order to gain the Summit of the hill.
While upon the second of theße
"switchbacks" a freight train, com
posed principally of cars laden with
lumber, dashed down the hill and
into the rear coach as it was in the
act of backing up. W. D. Jones, a
commercial traveler of Pittsburg, and
a man named Pollock were standing
on the rear platform of the car when
the freight crashed into it. Both
men made an effort to escape by
jumping, but were unfortunately too
late. Both were c±ught in the
wreck. Jones was almost instantly
killed, while his companion, Pollock,
received injuries of such a nature that
he will in all probability die.
Sheriff Wheeloek, of Clarion coun
ty, was on the ill-fated train, having
in charge the outlaw Scheli, whom he
had arrested yesterday in New Cas
tle. Schell made an effort to escape,
but was prevented from so doing by
the Sheriff.
The cause of the accident is attri
buted to a failure upon the part of
the passenger train men to obey or
ders, they having been instructed to
await the arrival of the freight train
at Foxburg.
No blame whatever is attached to
the freight train, they having a right
to the track. The Coroner is hold
ing an inquest to-night, and will
probably in his verdict censure the
railroad company for carelessness.
What Ha mpers Mrs. Cleveland.
New York Catholic Tablet.]
Mrs. G rover Cleveland celebrated
her 23d birthday last week. We
present our respectful compliments to
the beautiful and accomplished head
o4*the White House and wish her
many happy returns of the day. The

A Blow to Mormonism—Presi
dent John Taylor Dies While
in Hiding from Government
Oflicials.
SALT LAKE, UTAH, July 26.—1t is
announced to-night that John Taylor,
j President of the Mormon Church,
j died at five minutes to 8 last evening
The funeral will be at noon on Friday
at the Tabernacle. The body will
lie in state in that building from 7 to
11:30 a.m. The public will be per
mitted to review the remains.
John Taylor was born in Miln
throp, Westmoreland county, Eng
land, November 1, 1808 He joined
the Methodist Church in England,
emigrated to Canada in 1823, follow
ing his parents, who went two years
before; got in conflict with the Meth
odists in Toronto and became a Pro
gressist Methodist when Parley P.
Pratt visited that city, Iu 1836
Taylor and others were baptized in
the Mormon Church by Hill, and in
1837 gathered to Kirtland, O. In
1838 Joseph Smith had the "revela
tion" naming Taylor aud others for
members of the quorum of twelve
apostles to fill vacancies.
LIFE A3 A MISSIONARY'.
He did much missionary work for
the Church for twenty years in the
Isle of Man, England, Scotland, Ire
land, France and Wales. He was
also editor of various Church papers ;
was with Joseph Smith in the Carth
age jail and received four 3hots when
the assailants opened fire. Another
bullet lodged in his watch, which
saved his life. He published the
Book of Mormon in French, and issu-
I ed a paper in New York city in 1854
called the Mormon. He was Presi
dent of the twelve apostles when
Brigham Young died in 1877 and as
such remained at the head of the
Church till 1880, when he organized
the first presidency anew, taking the
chief place himself, which he held till
death.
After the passage of the Edmunds
law of 1882 be pretended to give up
his wives, but constantly preached
that no Mormon could do this, and
nobody believed he had done it. He
was indicted early in 1885. He last
appeared in public February 1, 1885;
since then he has been hiding from
the officers of the law.
ATTACK ON GENTILES.
Taylor was one of the earliest and
firmest adherents of polygamy, yet
after adopting it he took occasion to
deny that such practice prevailed
among the Mormons.
George (J. Cannon publishes a
long and violent announcement of his
death in the Desert News this eve
niag, charging his death to the cru
elty of officers of the law in not per
mitting Taylor to come out and have
his usual exercise. Cannon says
Taylor "occupies the place of a double
martyr; that he has been killed by
cruelty of oflicials who have in this
Territory represented the Govern
ment of the United States. His
blood stains the clothes of those men
who with insensate hate offered re
wards for his arrest and have hounded
him to tho grave. History will yet
call their deeds by their right names,
but One greater than the combined
voices of all historians will yet pro
nounce their dreadful sentence."
Damage by Storm and Flood
A dispatch from Great Barrington,
Mass , reports eighteen lives lost by
a flood. Particulars have not been
received. It is reported that two
dams gave way in Williamsburg last
evening, and that the water rushed
down the valley carrying desolation
in their wake. Houses and barns
were swept away and cattle carried
off by the flood.
FREAKS OF LIGHTNING AT NYACK.
At Nyack N, Y., during a storm
on Saturday the lightning was un
usually sharp, and played many un
pleasant pranks in that vicinity. A
ball of fire attracted by a gas pipe en
tered the door of a fruit store kept by
Effiingham Tallman, making a report
like that of a good sized cannon, and
causing Tallman to fall backward off
a stool on which he was sitting stun-,
ned, but not injured. The lightning*
then passed out over an electric light
wire and cut the wire in two on the
opposite side of the street.
GREAT DAMAGE IN ANI) ABOUT
NEWARK.
A dispatch from Newark, N. J.,
says: The violent thunder storms
that have prevailed during the past
two days have done almost inestima
ble damage throughout this county.
This is especially the case among the
lands of farmers along the Upper
Passaic. Here the hay crop is en
tirely cut oft'. Added to this, ,the
large quantities of water that have
fallen have flooded the cultivated
lands and destroyed many valuable
crops.
A TRAIN CAUGHT BETWEEN WASHOUTS.
Two bridges on the Harlem rail
road, near Hillsdale, New York, were
washed away by a flood on Friday
evening. A Chatham express train
due in New York at 10:25 A. M., was
caught between the two washouts
and detained all day.
LOSS OF LIFE ON LAKE ERIE.
A special from Amherstburg, Ont.,
says: The steam barge D. M. Pow
ers, of East Saginaw, reports the loss
of the barge Theodore Perry, of
Rondeau, at 2 o'clock Saturday morn
ing, during a very heavy gale from
the north, and the loss of seyen per
sons.
STREETS OF CHAMBEIISBURG FLOODED.
At Chambersburg, Pa., torrents de
scended for over an hour on Saturday
evening aud flooded the town. On
South Main street the water backed
up out of sewers, flowing into the
cellars, and even in many cases into
the first floors, doing great damage to
goods. For a time the streets were
impassable.
A Slump in the Oil Market.
OIL CITY, July 25. —The crudo
petroleum market opened weak this
morning at 57i. The slump of Sat
urday had made the trade nervous.
Tho next sale was at 57 and there
was a gradual dropping away until
56 was reached. During the after
noon sales were made at 55 1, the
lowest point touched since the panic
caused by the openiDg up of the
gushers iu the Thorn Creek pool in
1884, two of which flowed 6000
barrels a day each. The market
rallied late this afternoon and closed
at 56§ ottered. Refined in New York
is down to 6j| the lowest point ever
reached. Considerable oil was sold
out on stop orders, but there was
nothing approaching a pauic. There
are no bearish features in the market
except the largo accumulation of
stocks, amounting to 34,000,000
barrels.

pork out of Germany, but he has poor

The Pope's Policy.
ROME, Juiy 26—The announce
ment is made officially to-day that the
Pope has arrived at, a conclusion in
regard to the attitude of the Church
toward the Knights of Lnbor.
His Holiness decides that there is
no ground for Papal interference with
the Knights of Labor question.
He has conveyed the annoiseg
ment of this decision to Cardinal
Gibbons, who so ably presented the
claims of the order at the recent to l
sistory in this city.
A Big School.
Twenty-six counties of Western
and Central Pennsylvania were rep
resented at the Edinboro State Nor
mal School, during the year ending
June 1, 1887.
The number of graduates was GB,
and the total number of students,
873; thirteen of whom were from But
ler county.
This is an old, permanent and well
equipped college. It has good build
ings, its course is complete, and its
Library is one of the best in the
State. The students are mainly from
country homes, and are boys and
girls who are not above helping
themselves. The school ia located at
Edinboro, Erie county, a village,
seven miles distant from the railroad
station of Cambridge on the N.Y.P.&
0.R.11. No liquors are sold in the
