Mr. Grim came out! of the hotel and mounted the driver' box beside the boy. In taking the reins they slipped from his hands and fell beneath the horses' hoofs. This caused the animal to run away. The horse ran a square and then crashed into a tree box. The wagon was overturned and Mr. Grim and the hoy thrown out. The lut ter escaped with a few bruises.

Cripple Kidnapped a Roy. Eloven-vear-old Freddie Hopkins, of Mt. C'armel, who was kidnapped one month ago, lias been recovered and is now safely in the arms of his overjoyed mother. Mrs. Bella Hopkins. It was late Monday afternoon when a man noticed the \onth standing in front of a restaurant in Shenandoah. Ho was cry ing. The boy stated his name was Hopkins and that a man named Evan Griffith, a cripple, had made him drink beer and lliat it had made him sick. Hopkins was turned ovortothe police, after which Evan Griffith, who was in the neighborhood, was placed under ar rest. Constable Levi Deitrick went to Shen andoah and brought the man and boy to Mt. Carmol. When taken homo the little fellow told a harrowing tale of hardships. He said that he had been coaxed to Shamokin, where he and Griffith boarded a freight train for Sun bury. Then they went to Blootnsburg. Nanticoke, Hazleton, Pottsville and Shenandoah. At Hazleton young Hopkins said that lie was going home. Griffith then told liim, he says, that if he attempted t> leave him he would be a dead boy. Hopkins alleges that Griffith compelled him to steal. Griffith was acquainted with Mrs. Hopkins and when lie asked her consent to allow Freddy to visit Shamokin to spend lite day Mrs.. Hopkins permitted the boy to go, since which time nothing was heard of him. Griffith was formerly a miner and lost his arms at a Shamokin colliery years ago. Tito police at the time of lite dis appearance believed that Griffith wanted the boy to solicit alms on the streets, and such is alleged to have proven the case. Invented a Rutter Packing Machine. From tho Wilkesbarre Record. R. IL Cross, of Oneonta, N. Y., who lias from time to time been in this sec tion with patents on wagon and car riage axles, endeavoring to interest cap italists in the erection of a factory for their manufacture, has invented some thing else which he; believes will be come of general use in places where it will be of value. The latest is a butter packing ma chine. Heretofore in dairies and other places where butter is packed the only way to do it was to place the butter in chunks in the tubs and then pack it down by hand. Mr. Cross lias invented a contrivance on which two rollers revolve on the end of a shaft. The rollers come in con tact. wit it tho butter and pack it down smooth and hard and much faster than liy tin; old way. He lias tested it in New York state and yesterday in tlie Hygiene Com pany's creamery on tho West Side and those who saw it were delighted with the manner of operation. A more ex peditious way of packing butter lias long been needed. Mr. Cross says that in a short time he will have a factory for the manufac ture of Ids axles and butter packing machine, but would not say whero it is to be located. School Roard Meeting.

Seventh Annual Kntertainineut and Clotting Exercises Attended liy a Large Audience---Program to Re Repeal cd Tomorrow Evening. The seventh annual ontortainmont by the pupils of St Ann's parochial school was given at the Grand opera house last evening, and as in former years the building was filled from the orchestra pit to the last row of seats in the gal lery. The usual pretty decorations of the national colors and growing plants ap peared on the stage, which, with hun dreds of littlo girls in the background, made a scene of wonderful beauty and artistic arrangement when the curtain rose for the opening chorus. The training which the pupils have been given by their instructors, the Sisters of Mercy, was shown in every number during the lengthy program. The singing was sweet and pleasing to the ear, the drills wore conducted with military precision, the recitations were delivered with an offect that bore every mark of the art of the elocutionist, and the musical numbers, both with string instruments and pianos, were of an order far above the average heard at entertainments of this nature. Among the numbers on the program which attracted special attention from the audience were the parasol drill, the ride of Paul Revere, the beautiful In dian story of "The Famine" and the playing of St. Cecilia's club. The feature of the evening was the rendition of the drama, "Joan of Arc," a story of the great French heroine as arranged and compiled from historical I facts by 11. L. McMeriamin. The several characters were well placed and the young ladies and gentlemen did full justice to the roles assigned them. Interspersed in the play were nnni | bors by the pupils which, while having I no connection with the drama, aided considerably in brightening the various scenes. Following is the complete program, a repetition of which will be given at the Grand opera house tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock: Overture By DePierro's Orchestra Opening- Chorus By the Pupils Accompanist, Muster M.
