Saxonbunr, iluUer Co., I' a THE CITIZEN A Greensburg Sensation. (Tribune and Herald.) Another case of "man's inhumanity to man" come- from Pleasant I. uity, in wh.ch a once happy family is now rent asunder, and the husband, Rev. A. D. Potts, a prominent and well known minister is al most distracted over the duplicity of hi.- former physician, Dr. L. T. Smith of Greensburg, and the infidelity of his wile. For many years Rev. Potts and Dr. Smtih have been warm personal friends, the doctor being the family physician, and havißg a great deal of sickness in the fam ily, he was frequently a visitor to the Rev erend's home, and often when not on pro fessional business called to while away an hoar or so in a pleasant, social way. But recently things about the parsonage had a somewhat changed aspect, but not until lately did the Reverend snspact that anything nnusnal was transpiring beneath his roof. A short time ago Rev. Potts while in this city buying a bicycle for his son Welty, was taken ill and as usual Dr. Smith was called to minister to him when he improved sufficiently to be removed to his home. Dr. Smith then called at his residence late one evening, and as was cus tomary since his removal to this city re mained over night at the parsonage. Shortly after his arrival there the Doctor insisted on the Reverend retiring as he needed rest. The Reverend complied with this request and about ten o'clock woke up and going down stairs, found the doc tor and his wife in the kitchen. His sus picions were at once aroused, but he said nothing to indicate his feelings in the mat ter and again upon the doctor's advice re tired and slept soundly until morning, when he was surprised at not finding his wife. He at once began an investigation and while going through the house on the hunt of her, was surprised to see her emerging from Dr. Smith's room, lie at once took her to ta.-k about the matter, but she denied that she was guilty of any thing more than that she was in the room, but this did not satisfy the husband who insisted on having the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, when she, ofter some hesitancy confessed to being criminally intimate with Dr. Smith. This then so far as we know ended the matter there, the reverend not mentioning his discovery to the doctor who left the bouse ignorant of the fact that his duplic ity was known to his host. Rev. Potts came here to consult Rev. A. L. \ ouni pastor of the First Lutheran church, of which Dr. Smith is, or at that time was, a ruling elder. The matter was talked over by the two reverend gentlemen, when it was decided to send for Smith which Rev. Vount did. In response to the note sent, the doctor went at once to the Lu- I tiier an parsonage where he greeted the i reverend gentlemen very pleasantly and cordially, and at the same time inquired very particularly about Rev. Potts' health and even went so far as to inquire about his heart, when the Reverend then broach ed the subject by saying, "Doctor I guess you are not as much interested in niy heart as you pretend to be," and then un ' folded to him all his knowledge of the af fair. This was a stunner to the doctor who stood dumfounded and for a moment was anable to utter a word. When he re covered himself he said: "Why Reverend, you are beside yourself, ain't you T" Mr. Potts then told hiai that it was use less for him to deny it as he had bis wife's confession and he might as well admit his guilt, which he did, at the same time lay ing he was "a bad man, and was guilty of the charge." This was enough for Rev. Yount who at once suspended him as an elder. Rev. Potts has been greatly worried abont the matter and has arranged all bis business looking to a seperation between himself and his wife. He has employed an attorney, E. E. Allshouse, Esq., anJ Tues day of last week commenced proceedings for a divorce. The whole affair has created the greatest excitement ever known in this section of the county, where Mrs. Potts was looked upon as a model woman. Dr. Smith lives here and has a wife and family. It is rumoicd that Smith has given a power of attorney to settle up his business, and has fled the country. Some of his pa tients ho has turned over to other physi cians here. —"I have met over 50 pcoplo cured of dyspepsia by Hood's Sarsaparilla," says a traveling merchant. —"Only a man, yet faithful as a dog," is an expression used by an Knglish novel ist in one of his works.

The next gTeat anniversary which will probably be celebrate*' by an international exposition is the first English colony in the United States at Jamestown in 160<. The occasion is fourteen years off, or at about the same removal from the Chicago Exposition as that from the Exposition here. The South in the next fourteen years will make the saire stupenduous ad vance as the centre of this country in tee past sixteen years. It will hare a right and a desire to lead in celebratiug the early beginnings of the English race on this continent, for no seetiom owes more of its present population to the English set tlers of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Progress will be as great, ad vance as remarkable in the next fourteen years as in the time since the exposition was held here, and it will be as easy to spend $50,000,000 then as to expend $33,- 000,000 now or $15,000,000 in 1876. Jamestown will be as much out of place lor such a celebration a- the Bahama is land on which Columbus landed, bat Wash ington is near. Richmond nearer, and Atlanta in 1907, still more than to-day, will be the railroad center of the South. In 1876 the Centennial was freely pre dicted as likely to be the last of such gath erings. The same is said to day of Chica go. But these great gatherings are certain to be repeated every fifteen or twenty years on a scale of magnificence and grandenr, and the next will naturally fall in 1907. Phil'a.
