TJut for the calmness of the night, what might have resulted most seriously for Mercersburg, was the burning of the large frame barn belonging to Adam Steiger, on last Friday night. The barn U located on the Steiger property, directly back of the jxistoftice and Mclvinstry build ings, and also vet v close to Sha fr's tailor shop and Steiger's restaurant. About 8 o'clock, fire was dis covered in the barn, and lm med iately the alarm was given. The hlarm had spread, as only such iihrrxiS can spread, and before it culd be given from the tannery everybody wa' on the grounds. Not tea seconds elapsed after the first cry was given, until the building was enveloped in tlames, mid things took on a serious as pect. No sooner than the alarm had been given, than the 372 stu dents and professors from the academy were on the scene. Tiie boys, realizing the danger the other buildings were in, aid ed the tiremen in attaching the hose to the water plugs, and soon J ad two streams playing on the burning building. Before the water could be turned on, Stei ger's restaurant and a spring house a few steps away were in imminent danger. A bucket bri. gade was formed by t'.e students who minfully kept tne llames Irom eating into the roof and the side which was nearest the tire. Fully forty boys made up the oucket brigad-j. A continuous Jine of buckets passed from the f.Touud to the roof, as the build ings were nearly on fire. Aspring house and smoke house belonging to the McKinsty property, and a fc.mall stable tilled with hay, di rectly back 'of Shaffer's tailor shop, were put out without much damage resulting. The barn was too far gone to be saved, and ex tra attention was given to the buildings around it. Smoke was now seen issuing from the roof of the stable belonging to the Mc Aee hotel property, and a stream of water was soon brought to bear upon it, and the tire was checked without any serious dam age to the building. Two streams of water were now turned on the ourniug barn, aud in a few min utes the tire was well under con trui. During the tire, when all the academy students were helping wherever and at whatever they i "uld, Koy Spangle, a student, was assaulted by Harry Rock well, aud before he could offer re stance, was knocked down and severely beaten about the face. Tins was done within 25 feet of the burmug building, while Spangler was assisting in the manipulation of the nozzle. Rock well was arrested by Mr. Wolf, ou a charge of aggravated assault nod battery, made by the Presi dent of the academy, and was h-ld under friOO bail. The origin of the tire is un known, but is supposed to be of incendiary origin. The building was iusured, aud everything id it was saved. , If an article is imitated, the original is always best. Think it over, and wlien you go to buy that box of salve to keep around the house, get DeWitt'a Witch Hazel Salve. It is the original and the name is stamped on every box. Good for eczema, tetter, boils, cuts and bruises, and especially recommended for piles. Sold at Trout's drug store. Thos. P.

Dear Sir : You know, diamonds don't go by size So with paint. ")! make puint, one gallon of which goes as far as two of anoth er and lasts twice as long; that's four to one, You knowitistrueindiamonds; they don't go by the gallon, do they If you're going to paint your house, you go first to your paint er ana say; "i m going to paint; do vou want the job? and what'll it cost " If he hippens to know, he'll say: "Depeuds oa the paint. I can do it for somewhere about 100 or $00. whichever you like; 1100 will make a good job; 200 a poor one." And you, if you happen to have your wits, '11 say : "I'll take the good one, when'll you do it?" Painters ought, all, to know about paint; and jewelers ought to be able to get a good job. We do what we can to help both. One gallon Devoe is better than two of average paint, goes as far that is, your house will take about 20 gallons Devoe and 40 of average paint and Devoe will wear a long time; the lile of aver age paint is very uncertain, it may be a year, it may be five. Why is it that painters don't know aoout paint ? Do jewelers know about diamonds ? They know more than they tell some times. Theie are painters and painters; so there are jewelers; so there is paint, and the least g illons paint is Devoe. Yours truly F. W. Devoe & Co., New York. p. s. F. U.

W. r rn 1 . t in. j. ii uiti, wno resides a mile or more s uth of Franklin Mills, went, one evening recently to the fields to bring the cows. preparatory to milking. While on this errand, he espied a large bear. About this time this same bear espied Mr. Truxel, and put up a big bluff by raising upright on his haunches, and assuming an attitude that suggested to Mr. Truxel's mind that discretion is the better part of valor, and he retired in good order for rein forcements. When he returned with the assistants, they did not find the "bar," and concluded that Bruiu had the same mind as Mr. Truxel he had retired for reinforcements or had retired into the security of some safe hid ing place.
