Was 89 Yesterday
Yesterday Mr. John Nissley Eby,
father of Mrs. D. H. Engle of this
place, celebrated his 89th birthday.
Mr. Eby is a native of Manor town-
ship, passed his boyhood days near
Bender's Mill, near Salunga, and
learned the milling trade at the old
Moore’s mill, following the occupa-
tion of a miller for a number of years
Later he farmed near Manheim, sub-
sequently moving to Neffsville, where
he carried on farming and horse
dealing on an extensive scale. In
fact, the years sit so lightly on Mr.
Eby that he is still engaged in the
horse dealing business to quite an
extent. He resides at Neffsville but
is very well known here and it is the
wish of his many friends that he may
enjoy many more years of activity.

POW-WOWS IN YORK COUNTY
Convince Rural Populace That There
is a Lot of Philosophy in Them
The recent widespread interest in
the unique defense which saved Mrs,
Minnie E. Tracy, of Chanceford town-
ship, York county, from the death
penalty for the poisoning of her hus-
band, has called to attention the
mysticism which exists today, firmly
established, among country folk all
about York, in the city itself and ev-
en in many parts of this county.
The accused woman’s story that
she had been duped by her lover, a
man from the same section of the
county, and had put strychnine in
her husband's whiskey under the im-
pression that it was a love potion—
something that would make him cease
his brutality toward her not
generally believed, yet a York county
jury, knowing the superstitions of the
represented, gave her the
benefit of the doubt thus arising and
found her guilty only of manslaugh-
ter.
While the doctor” of
York county, whose position among
his own people is as exalted as that
of the ‘‘medicine man” among the
heathen tribes of Africa, and is much
the same, deals in love potions, it is
in other directions that his services
are most often required. He or she
(for some of the local pow-wow doc-
tors credited as most efficient are wo-
men) gives the service desired with-
out accepting whatever the
supplicant sees fit to give.
In York the doc-
tor is perhaps most often called upon
to diagnose the condition of sickly
children as “oppnemma’”’ or the “tak-
ing-off” which is based upon a theory
that the height
times the length of the foot.
pow-wow doctor holds that if
measurement shows the person's
height to be only six times the length
of the foot, or less, death will follow.
Most often the measurements shows
six times the length of the foot, and
a fraction more, whereupon the doc-
tor words” and “the patient
is cured.” There are those in the
county not claiming the versatility of
the pow-wow doctor, yet professing to
be able to cure this malady, “take the
fire out of burns” and perform other
small services.
There is the authentic instance of
the wife of the tenant upon a West
Manchester township farm, only a-
bout five miles from York, who can
be found in the city markets every
week. One night a few weeks ago,
about 100 chickens, almost her en-
tire flock, were stolen from the barn.
In despair she her husband to
the pow-wow doctor, who after ac-
cepting a small fee and muttering a
few words announced that he had
thrown a spell over the thief, that the
chickens would begin to return in
four days, and that in four days more
they would all be back. It hap-
pened almost exactly doctor
said, and the woman is naturally re-
luctant to consider that chickens, if
given their liberty several miles from
home, will, nine times out of ten,
find their way back. Running a nail
completely thru her foot a few days
later, this same woman again sought
the pow-wow doctor to have him ex-
ert his art to keep the wound from
getting sore.
Every Little Bit Helps
The rains of last week, followed
by snow, have been just the thing for
the growing wheat. There has not
been enough moisture to strengthen
the flow of springs and wells and as
the ground, except near the surface,
is still exceedingly dry, it will take
a great deal more of the present wea-
ther to bring conditions back to the
normal.

heard in court yesterday. The plain
tiff is a real estate dealer of that city
and he sued to recover a commission
for selling the Florin hotel. He
