SAVAGE DOBS
E.lua Dietrich, a 14-year-old girl
ot Milton,who is visiting at the home
of Charles Robson, East Mahoniup
street, was attacked by a couple ol
>avag<- dogs Tt-usday and narrowly
escaped being badly hitten The yomtp
lady was attacked in the alley at the
roar of Mr Robson's and was chased
for some distance.one of the dogs seiz
ing one of her limbs and biting hei
below the Knee. The girl was terror
stricken as she fled along with the two
dogs in close pursuit. Jast as one ol
the dogs seized her limb Frank Merrill
and William Hullihen came to her res
cuh. They heard her screaming ant]
running to the spot were there jost in
time to beat otl the dogs as they both
were about to spring upon her. The
dogs were in a savage mood and pat
op a determined fight The wound in
flicted npon the girl was not a very
bad one, bnt there is no telliug to
what extent she might have been in -
jured had help not arrived at the op
portune moment.
Aside from the bite inflicted the
young lady suffered terribly Irom the
"fleets of fright and shock, so that
medical assistance was necessary.
The attack was altogether unprovok
ed and is only another instance which
demonstrates the danger that people
are exposed to from worthless dog
which are permitted to run at large in
town.
Considering the large number of per-
bitten during a month or so past
the situation is little short of alarm
ing anil if there ever was a time
when Council seemed called upon to
t»k«- some a-tion relating to the dogs
that would protect the public, then
that time would seem to be the pres
ent
Lightning and Trees.
This is the season of the year when
thunderstorms may be expected, ami
as it is the period when many people
are outdoors picnicitig. camping, liar,
vesting.picking berries,and away from
their homes or near shelter when
storms come up suddenly, the first im
pulse is to run for a big tree, with the
idea that the tree will break the force
of the wind or turn the water for a
time at least. Notwithstanding that
columns have been written, and an
uually the papers warn people that the
most dangerous place a person may go
in time of a thuuderstrom h a tree,
yet folks will run for the tree,just the
same, if they are caught in a showei
and there is no shelter close at hand.
If a lone tree is on a bill or 111 a field
and of any height, a discharge of elec
tricity from a cloud will seek the
nearest and highest object that it
clo-iest to the charged cloud, and there
is the danger too of wind breaking
large branches or overturning a tree
and killing or injuring any live 01-jecl
underneath.
There are exseptions to all lules. ami
sometimes when the clouds are lighi
and certain to leave only a sprinkle, a
small tree thickly covered with leaves
may yiv.t effective shelter from getting
wot, hut during a thunder storm keej
away from lone or high trees.

Setli Kinman. who is an nude of
Sheriff J. R. Sliarpless, of Northnin
berland County, was about this section
until or probably after war times and
is still well remembered by our citi
zeus of middle life or older. As he
appears in the portrait, armed with
his musket,dressed in a tiappers garb,
nnkempt, his face half concealed by
shaggy beard, so he is remembered by
those who saw him last From hoy
hood he had a craving for the woods
and the excitement and adventure of a
hunter's life. He dressed himself in
bear skins, trophies of his own nut r
ring aira.aud slept oat of doors in 1111-
mitation of the hardy froatiersm HI.
He drifted to California and became
famous as a hunter ami trapper. Sub
seqaently in life lie retar.ied to this
seutiou for a visit with relatives. He
returned to the West and rfie.l there.
It may be difficult to determine the
exact value of his exploits.hot certain
it is that he has earned a place for hi;

the drama and during Ins school day
organized a theatrical company in
Dan ville,among the members of w hieii
are some of those still living.
Dinville was too tame for the young
er Judson and he ran away from hniin
and joined the navy. He *o in proved
his mettle and commanded respect
among the seamen by fighting a couj 1<
of duels. Yeirs afterward be revisit
ed Danville, making an anti slavery
address at the weigh scales. Judsoi
was already famous as a scout. Nol
knowing how Ins address would be re

HIT DOWN
As anticipated owing to the deatli
of John H Bennett some changes have
been inaugurated about Castle (trove
which «t present, however, seems t<]
have none no further thai) cutting
down the number of employes.
Fifteen muii employed on the golf
links have been laid off. The future
of the links, which arc the finest in
the country, is veiy uncertain The
magnificent tract covering thirty-seven
acres lies in full view from the Bloom
road where during the summer it haf
been much admired by the large num
ber of people passing backward and
forward on the trolley. For some years
past the fifteen men employed have
been kept busy on the links eight
months of the year. While some are
mowing the gra-s others may he poll
ing weeds, sprinkling or repairing
spots washed by the rain. As a result
of the incessant care the large tract
with rustic bridges ami other unique
features could not fail to arrest and
enchain the eye.
Notwithstanding their beauty and
well kept condition the busy owner of
Castle Grove found few opportunities
to enjoy his golf links. That he took
great pride in them, however, is man
ifest From now on thq grounds will
receive no especial care. Already they
are taking on a peculiar greyish ap
pearance due to a growth of white elo
ver, which is springing up.
The greenhouse fotce has also been
cut down from some fifteen men tc
four men and two boys. The painter*
have also been laid off.
The dairy will he continued for the
present. This is one of the finest in
the state and the milk and cream if

State Game Preserves.
The Board of (Jatne Commissioner!
met at Harrishurg on Friday and de
rided to expedite the creation of Stati
game preserves with the ft>,ooo whicl
was appropriated for game propagatioi
by the last Legislature.
The matter of securing wild turke;
eggs from other States, hatching then
111 incubators and turning them loosi
when sufficiently old to care for tbein
selves, was also discussed but no dof
ill ito decision was reached It will 110
he long, however, before wotk aloii(
this line will lie started.
Ex-State Treasurer Frank CI. Harris
of Clearfield ; W. Heyward Myers, o
Williamsport, and Secrteary .tosepl
Kalhfus, of llarrisburg, were appoint
ed a committee to select sites for tin
game preserves. They will bo estab
lished upor State land already control
led by the Forestry Commission, afte
consultation with that commission
The idea of the preserves is to providi
a haven of refuge for game, upoi
which hunting will be allowed at in
time. The preserves will be euclosei
with a fence of single wire, abou
three feet from the ground—higl
enough to be jumped by larger animal
and low enough for small animals ti
run under if.
The game men already have theii
eye upon a couple ot desirable spots
one of which is a place in Clinton
county which is a natural refuge fo
deer and other large game.

STEEL BRIDGES
Konr steel bridges are being erected
in the county tins season, to take Mir
pface ot wooden ones, which have doiu
service for years past.
It is noticeable (liitt wherever now
bridges are built in every instance iron
or steel is selected as material by Hit
Commissioners. This is because of the
growing scarcity and high price ot
suitable timber. Not only is steel -e
leoted for the branches of the Chillis
quaque and Mahoning Creeks, hut also
for the small rails, that make only a
culvert necessary. I Jerry township ha
led ott by selecting steel for such a
culvert.
Among this year's installment ol
steel bridges are the following:
One over the head waters of thoChil
lisquaque in Derry town-hip »l John
Hleo's farm.
Une in Anthony R>wnship ovi r a
tributary of the Chillisqnaqne at llau
ermau's farm.
Two in Liberty township—one at
Henry Vincent's and the other at W
E. Boyer's, the former over a branch
of Mahoning creek and the latter ovet
a branch of the Chillisqunque.
Steel bridges of the above sort can
he built, for *llO to $175, which is eon
siderably below what wooden struct
ures would cost, while the former have
the advantage of being more durahli
and better able to resist flood.
There are still a good many wooden
bridges in Moutour County. Some ol
the covered bridges, notably those iri
Washingtouville, leading to Danville
and Milton are very old and are still
in an excellent state of preservation
The bridge on the Milton road, espeei
ally, is said to be eighty years old am
unless it meets with souie accident
will stand twenty years longer. It. will
be soiue years probably before tIK
picturesque wooden bridges will all h.
a thing of the past, but tlis day i
coming when the site of every one ol
them will be occupied by an iror
bridge.

a credit to this section from which tin
regiment is recruited. To be a mem
ber of the Guard requires a treat deal
of self-sacrifice, and many unpleasant
features, and when it is considered
that the Guard is the nucleus of the
national army, and defense in case ol
war with a foreign nation or rebellior
there is cause for gratitude on tin
part of the general public for the sol
diery of the state. Pennsylvania ha'
several hundred thousand men, whr
have been drilled in the National
Guard, and who in ease of an einer
geucy would he available,and an armj
of defense assembled in a few days.
Only those who have served 111 the
Guard know of the sacrifices thai
must be made in a three years' or si>
years' service, and there is little plaj
or glory about if,and less appreciat.ioi
of the Regiment than there should he.
The annual encampment is a necessary
feature of the National Guard, as it
Rives opportunity of extended drill!
and manoeuvres, with large bodies ol
men, not possible in the armories, am
such work devolves upon soldiers ii
actual service. With few exceptions
however,the ten days of camp life are
beneficial to the "boys"—as even the
old soldiers and heroes of the Civi
war are called—as the change of air,
food, scenes and thought afford in OIK
sense a rest or vacation, ami it doef
most any person good to get away
from the usual routine and rut of lionit
life, business or vocation
The present tour of duty at Mt.
Gretna will give the guardsmen more
than a usual severe taste of soldier lift
but we trust that the encampment wil
be ot great benefit to the men, boll
from a physical as well as a military
point of view, and that the legitimate
pleasures which come to camp life
will more than compensate for tin
toil and unj feasant features

LESS REPAIRS
THAN USUAL
The Building and Repair Commit
ti-e id the School Board consisting ol
Robert Adams, Jacob Pitcher, New
ton Purer I and .faroh Von Blohu and
accompanied by Borough Superintend
ent <»ordv made a tour of the school
buildings yesterday afternoon for the
purpose of determining the amount of
repairs that will lie imeded before the
buildings and grounds can he putin
wool shape for the coming school
term.
It was found that, with the excep
tion of the Third ward the repairs
needed this year are less extensive
th tn for some years previous and will
require comparatively a small expend
iture of money. In the Third ward
much more will be required than us
ual. Not a few ol the rooms will need
calcimiuing, but tbii greatest problem
is confronted in the cellar where wat
er has made its appearance oozing up
from the ground which is of a very
springy nature. The water has al
ways been a source of annoyance at
that building in the spring of the
year, hut the present season due to
some unaccountable cause it has made
it's appearance in increased quanti
ties even at the present time lying in
the ash pit at the furnace to tli3 depth
of nearly two feet.
The school board will sink a drain
and endeavor to establish connection
