O., January 14th of grip and kidney
trouble. She was aired about 70
years, was born iu Snyder county.
Iter maiden name was Motz a sister
of Georgo Motz, of Middleburgh,
now deceased. Sho was married to
Mr. Herrold on August 2, 1812, aud
in 18ti.j they moved to Akron. O.
Tho union was blessed with eight
children, only two of whom, John S.
aud Martha (now Mrs. Christee),
survive hor.
A few weeksau'oanino-months old
child of Ooorgo Weaver, residing in
tho Seven Mountains, Ceutro county,
died aud was buried. A fmi ilnvu

tho child had been foully dealt with
by its father. The child was ex-
humod and a jury was impaneled
to render a verdict as to tho child's
death. An examination revealed no
bruiso of any kind on tho child's
body, and tho jury rendered a ver.
diet accordingly, ami that it had not
como to its death from blows re
coived from its pareuts.

Another Tramroad Accident.
WILLIAM JOIIDAM O Hot: Nil TO A 1TI.I' AT
PARDEE.
On Friday evening of last week as
a train load of logs were being taken
down tho tramroad to Pardee, tho
crew lost control of the train, owing
to the slippery condition of the rails.
and all tho men jumped except Olley
opeciit, engineer, (son of Jacob
Specht.) and fireman Will Jordan.
Tho train had gained a tremendous
speed when Jordan and Soeehl
jumped off. Jordan, it is supposed,
jumped on the wrong nido and re
bounded under the wheels of th
trucks, whore he was grouud into a
pulp. Specht escaped with a broken
nose, sprained back aud feet. The
attending physician thinks Mr.
Specht will recover. Ilewasbrouplil
in on a mulo and Joudau was taken
in ou another dinkey. Mr. Specht
had just jumped iu time, for tho
next instant tho train jumped tho
track and landed on the rocks nouio
forty feet down tho mountain, an
entire wreck, Mr. Jordan lived at
Pardee. Ho leaves a wife and ev.
ral children. Ho wus buriod' Mon

it is estimated that it will reach 13,

any election which history records,
and they will be scattered over
greater urea of country.
A few weeks ago we published a
"clipping" from an exchange saying
that any person having an American
silver half-dollar of In.IS could get
912 for it. Wo have since been be
seigeit irom all quarters by persons
who had in their possession tho cov
eted coin, asking us where thev
could sell tho piece. Wo have ex
amiiied severul coin circulars an.

and must thus ruthlessly blast their

We beg to call our readers' atten
tion to the advertisement of P. Bill
hardt, found iu another column o
this issue. Any person desiring to
purchase a standard piano for as
low a price as possiblo, should com
municate with himat once and get
his terms. Tho instruments, which
ho offers for salo. aro well known
and highly spoken of in tho musical
world. Ihis fact combined with tho
experience of Mr. Billhardt as
musician and tho reputation which
he enjoys iu regard to honetty and
fairness warrants satisfaction to
his customers.
Jjast fall when Undo Rob. Middle-
swarth hunted with tho Nwnml.
- - - . ,.nm
villo party near tho tuunels in Union
county, they observed a big bear
making his way up a mountain fully
fivo huudred yards away. Mr. Mid
dleswarth and John Spigelmyer at
once opened fire on tho animal with
their Winchesters. Tho bear quick
ened his pace and disappeared over
tho summit of tho mountain. Mr.
Middloswarth did not follow tho an
imal as ho did not think ho was hit.
This week wo received intelligence
that tho animal ran within the lines
of a Miillin Co. party and was shot
ut short range by a Mr. Gorhart. of
near Man's Axe Factory. A stranger
appeared upon tho scene about this
time and. running his hand throui?h
tho thick fur, offered Mr. Gorhart
$25 for the hide. Tho offer was
promptly accepted and tho animal
wus skinned, w Hereupon they found
that a 45 calibre Winchester ball
(such as Mr. Middloswarth shoots)
had entered the boar's breast, cut
his juglar vein, passed through tho
body and lodgod iu tho gaven. Tho
animal dressed 340 pounds.
The Fence Law.
A few weeks ago wo published
Judge Rockafeller's decision on the
Fence Law. Later we published a
criticism on the same, which lead to
an investigation and caused him to
reverse his decision in tho following
concise and decisive. lainruiiffn:
Tho principal and only question
necessary for the determination of
this case and which was fullv dis.
cussed and decided at tho time of
tho trial related to tho dutv of thn
owner of improved land taking up
cattle straying thereon, to give no
tice to the owner of such cattle, ho
that such owner may tender amends.
1 hat the case was eorrorHr d.
cided I think there can bo no doubt,
but another question was discussed
by mo iu a former opinion, on lhi
motion for a now trial, and that was,
as to whether in Northumberland
county fences aro required at all,
and if so, whether they ttr to bo
made according to t li HIT til mint tr
of tho Act of May loth, 172l. I then
hold that the said Act of 17W ln.,1
never been repealed. My attention
had not at that timo been called to
the Act of HH7, which certainly does
not repeal that act.
"All laws requiring the owner; of
improved lands, in this and otner
counties of the State, to constrict
fences thereon, certainly seem to bo
repealed by tho Acts of 1HS7 nd
1880, and persons who suffer fieir
horses and cattle to roam at h.rgo
.ro liable for all damagos occasioned
by reason of their trespassing upon
such lands." By tho Court.

James R. Emerson, then a resident
of Wyandotte county Ohio, was
kicked on his left thiih bv
