The Punxsutawney Spirit says | considerable excitement has been cre ated iu llinggold township by the | supposed discovery of a silver mine , on the farm of John Gcist, near the grist mill of Eii Buck. For some j time a mineral resembling silver ' has beeu noticed in the ro;ky ledge along the run. Little attention was paid to it until recently, when j a small piece of the ore wits sent to j an ussayer in Pittsburg, wuo reported j that it was the genuine fit nil', aud j that a tou of similar would Yield | S4UO worth of metal. The territory \ will be developed. One night last week as a young I gentleman and lady, of Brushvaliev | township, Indiana Co, were going] home from a party, they received a ; friirht which made the hair of their heads assume a perpendicular atti tude. They were jogging aloug slow ly, as young people will who attach ed each other, when they were sud denly confronted by what they sup posed to be a couple of dogs belong ing to their neighborhood. The ani mals were not disposed to get out of j the way, when the young man struck 1 oue of them with his cane The ani- j mul jumped back, ultering an ugly | snarl and it's teeth could be plainly heard gnashing. The animals stood at bay when the lady suggested to her eseort that he light a match which he did and was amazed to discover that a pair of savage wolves were standing within six feet of them. The young man pulled oil his hat and waviDg it toward the animals uttered a yell loud enough to stop a watch, when the wolves jumped over a fence and diappeared iu the woods. To say that their departure was welcome to the young people scarcely expres ses their feelings and they made all possible haste to the residence of the lady and the young man did not 'go home till morning till broad daylight appeared." An eflort will be made to capture the animals. An unusual incident happened in the Warren Co., 0., court house last Thursday afternoon. James Livia, a prominent citizen, appeared as an applicant for a liqaor license. Peti tions for and against the applicant signed by hundreds by persons were presented by counsel. The Court had just rendered a decision favorable to the applicant when his daughter, a beautiful young woman, who is Dep uty Couuty Clerk, rushed into the court-room aud, raising her hands, begged an audience. Miss Livia then made a most pa thetic and eloquent appeal against the granting of the license. For fif teen minutes the Court and Bar list ened spell-bouud to her words. Iu reply to the statement that the peti- lion against grauting the license was signed largely by women, she declar ed that the right of petition granted by the fundamental law of the laud belonged to women as well as men. When Miss Livia eat down the Court reversed its own decision aud refused the license. The License Court for Allegheny county, which had been in session for a month, reported the result of its labors so far as they relate to the city of Pittsburg, last Friday. Of the 718 appplications 218 were grant ed, The others, with the exception of about 60, which were not disposed of, were refused. The Court is hear ing applications for the rest of the county. It is supposed that it will complete its labor in another week. The buildings of the Leechburg foundry and machine company were destroyed by fire lately. The disas ter is said to have been caused by workmen who were extending the gas pipe. They opened a four inch pipe and allowed the gas to escape until it filled the building and was ignited by the lights. The loss will be between $40,000 and $50,000; in surance $17,000. Several serious accidents occurred and there were a number of narrow escapes from death. The pattern maker had time only to throw his tool cheat out of the win dow and jump after it. The compa ny will rebuild at once. A few months ago a young lady from Butler county was visiting a family in New Castle, aud during her stay in this city received the constant attentions of a business man to whom she became engaged to be married. A short time after her return home this same man was married to anoth er woman which fact the girl learned from the papers, and the sudden reac ' tion of her feelings induced a severe illness from which she has not yet re ' covered. The young lady's friends t advise a prosecution for damages, but as yet no legal action has been taken. Hugh Shannon, Cashier of the Pittsbug and Western R. It., and al so of the Western New York, and Pennsylvania It. lt..at New Castle, mysteriously disappeared last Satur day week, and further than that he was seen in Pittsburg on that even ing, nothing can be learned of his whereabouts. Auditor* of the two roads arrived in New Castle Monday afternoon and are examining the ac counts. Nothing as yet has been found wrong, though the back ac count is yet to be examined. Eight thousand dollars in bonds was found in the safe secure. He was under $5,000 bonds, secured by tho Fidelity Safety Company of New York. Shannon went to New Castle from Franklin, Pa., about five years ago, and has been iu the employ of the company ever since. It is alleged he dabbled in oil. Agent Celligan re fuses to talk about the matter, but re ports are in circulation that Shann on's accounts are iu bad shape. The New York Uuaranteo Company is on his bond for a large amount. Shannon came to America about nine years ago a poor boy from Ireland, but being a good accountant, found no difficulty iu securiug a clerkship, from which position he worked him self up to that of Cashier. A large barn on the farm of David Black, in Slipperyrock twp„ Law rence Co., burned to the ground on Wednesday afternoon of last week A number of farming implements and a quantity of grain were consumed by the flames. Fortunately no live stock was burned. The origin is a mystery. It ix said that there was an insurance of SI,OOO on the burned property. At Greensborg, Pa., an unusual event will take place to-morrow, be ing the celebration of the 100 th anni versary of the founding of the Pres byterian Church at that place. Churches that have reached the cen tennial year are rare, and this event promises to be a most interesting one. Cook, the horse thief, who escaped from the Clarion jail by knocking the warden down, has been reeeptured and returned to jail. It was to him that Harry Worthington related his story of the murder of the Everhart family. He will be a prominent wit ness against Worthington, who is now also located in Clarion jail. General Notes. Mr. Jacob Sharp, the New York boudler baa oeen released by death. Last summer a crank obtained li cense of the Burgess of Clearfield to to sell pictures in the town. While so engaged a member of the council ordered the police to arrest the man. The fellow claimed that he was an English subject and bad the borough authorities arrested and bound over for trial in the U. S. court. From the first it was knowu the fellow had not a ghost of a chance to convict, yet ihe Council had to appear and make tie tense. The case was promptly kick ed out of court at the cost of the pros ecutor. So far so good. But when the borough came to toot, up the ac counts, tbey found numerous orders had been issued to pay the members of tho council for their expenses to Pittsburg, amounting to sli>7 .and $023 for attorney fees. There is the tallest kind of a kick on the part of tax payers, and we are not much sur prised. Miss Susan B Anthony, the most famous old maid in America, who took a leading part in the Woman's International Council, ia Washing ton, is in her 69th year. She is of (Quaker ancestry, and, though bora in Massachusetts, was educated iu Philadelphia. Her earliest public efforts were in behalf of the temper ance cause. Since 1852 she has been one of the leading spirits in every woman's rights convention, aud has been the acting secretary and general agent of woman's rights agitation through all these years. Much sickness is now charged to the sudden changes of temperature. Later on it will be attributed to im pure cellars and the garbage in the back yards. Fearful destruction of animal life occurred iu East Mahoning township last Tuesday night by the burning of the large barn of J. 0. Richardson. The fire occurred about 9 o'clock at night while the family was all away at an entertainment. Five head of ex ceptionally line horses, fifteen head of excellent cattle, aud twelve head of sheep were burned alive. A lot of grain, hay, farming implements, etc,, were destroyed. The fire had reach ed such headway before it was dis covered that it was impossible to save the animals, the bellowing and bleat ing and neighing of which, iu their frantic efforts to escape tho awful death that awaited them, was heart rending iu the extreme. The barn | Was a valuable oue, and the loss of the contents alone would reach near ly $2,000 The loss of the barn is partially covered by insurance. The origin of the fire can be explained in no other way than by attributing it to an iuceudiary.—lndiana Messen ger. One man in Fayette county, Pa., has a thousand maple sugar trees oa his land, from which he made 1015 gallons of niitple ayrup this year, sell ing it at ( J5 cents a gal 100, or about $1,021 for the crop. A farmer who ppares and takes care of his sugar trees, if he h;ts a good lot Of them, makes more money from them, with less labor, than from hi 3 grain crops. ALUM BAKING POWDERS. Declared Adulterated Food and their Sale Illegal. The result of a triil just conclu led at Cauton, X. Y., before Judge Kel logg, will have a salutary effect in checking the sale of ouo class of adul terated food. Two men, uaaied M >on and Akerill, were arrested for selling adulterated baking powder in viola tion of the State food adulteration act. The indictmeut was for both selling baking powders that were inferior, adulterated and injurious to health by reason ot being made from alum, and for selling them under pretense that they were a wholesome, cream of tar tar baking powder. A stubborn de fense was made, the claim being set up that baking powders were not ar ticles of food aud that the powder the defendants were selling, which was known as Gillett's, was a standard article of trade, aud that alum baking powdars inferior to it, like Davis' and others, were being sold by other deal ers in the saroo town without com plaint. The Court held that baking powders were articles of food within the meaning of the law, and the jury found the defendants guilty upon all the charges. The case haß attracted much attention from being the first brought under the State Food Adul teration Act against dealers in almn baking powders. The result of the trial is to class sach baking powders as adulterated articles of food aud to make their sale illegal. There are many alum baking powders put up in cans, under some name or brand, in addition to those sold in bulk, the sale of all of which cautious dealers will probably be unwilliug to contin ue. —The owners ofgrape vine 3 should see to it that they are trimmed with out delay, if that importaat work has not been already done.

For iastauce: If a peusiooer is now re ceiving $25 per month, the amount due would be computed at that rate per month, dating from the time of his discharge, and he would receive the whole amount, less what has al ready been paid. In a Hurry to Marry. WILKKSBAERE. PA , April 6.—A butcher named Joseph Tradiski. who has been very prominent iu Polish circles, eloped to-night with Mrs. Yolkavitch, the widow of the mur derer who was haaged here last Tuesday. They had been engaged since the conviction of Yolkavitsh last September and agreed to get married on the execution, but public opiniou was so strong that they were afraid to defy it. They left quickly for Pittston to night, and will be mar ried there to-morrow. The woman took with her the watch and chain stolen by her late husbaad from the body of bis victim, John Bioski. Strangled By a Falling Buggy Top. NEW CASTLE, PA., April 10.— Last evening James McCann, a well known and popular young man, went out driving with a lady, using his father's horse and buggy. When early this morning McCann's mother went to his room to call him, she found that he had not retured, and upon going to the barn the horse was found standing still hitched to the buggy, which contained the dead body of the young man. His neck was tast be tween the irou bracing of the seat and the heavy top, which had fallen down. Death bad been caused by strangula tion. The Coroner's jury returned a verdict iu accordance with the facts. McCann was about 23 years of age, Peculiar Accident While Out Driving. EAST BRADY, PA., April 11.—While driving along the road near Kayler City yesterday, John S Williams was struck by a tailing tree and crushed so badly 'that he may not recover. His horse was killed aud the buggy demolished. —The Warren Mirror says: Young gentlemen, this is leap year, and the young ladies are supposed to have the rights that generally belong to you. Now would it not be a good plan for you to go into eharch and listen to the sermon and allow the girls to stand around the door like an awkward squad of blamed foola wait ing for you to come out ? Several merchants in this county and in our neighboring counties have recently adopted the cash system, an nouncing that they will give no cre dit to any one. It is gratfying to kuow that things are progressing towards a cash basis among all class es, and when the system becomes un- ! iversal newspaper men will always be found iu a good humor, neither will thoy sweur auy more. The cre dit system has ruined many a man. —The "fishing sociable" is some thing comparatively new and bids fair to be all the rage this summer. It isn't the kind of fishing sociable wo have been in the habit of attending on the banks of the Slipperyrock, but is a great improvement on that affair, and is about as follows: This being leap year the ladies hold the rod. The ladies occupy one room and the other —which is supposed to represent a fishing pond—is occupied by the gen tlemen, each of whom has a string tied to his right hand. These strings are passed through the transom and tied to a chair. Each lady selects a string, and whoever happens to be on the end of it is to be entertaiued by her during the evening. Ordinarily the club meets at a hotel, where a fine supper has been ordered and the lady not only entertains her "catch" but pays for bis supper. That sort of a sociable is bound to be popular with the young meu. Oysters All Summer.
