crossing Stone Mountain on his home
trip, and but for the timely aid of the
Greenwood Works teamsters, in all
probability would have perished. When
found he was in a comatose state, and
after being roused, be had to be assisted
from his horse, being so much affected
by the cold as not to realize his condi
tion, i
A Lykens Valley Mine on Fire. On
Monday afternoon a fire broke out in
the deep workings of the Lykens valley
mines, at Wloonisco. There are four
collieries the Short Mountain, Lykens
Valley, Big Lick and Summit Branch.
Together their workings form one of
the longest subterranean galleries in the
world, having a continuous communica
tion of about ten miles in a straight line.
As nearly as can be ascertained, the
fire broke out in the pumping way near
the bottom of the principal slope, which
is nearly 600 yards in depth. Its origin
is unknown, but in less than twelve
hours it had made its way along the
elopes and gangways to the surface,
where It burned the pumping-house con
taining a powerful " Bull" or Cornish
engine. . ' 1 ;
Eighty six mules were suffocated
by the smoke and gases. The latest des
patches eay that Bear Creek, which runs
over part of the workings, had been
turned into them, and that the fire was
thought to be under control.

Juniata County. We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
ast week:
On Sunday n week twelve people were
admitted to membership in the Lutheran
church in Mifflintown.
On Christmas morning about 8 o'clock
the two prisoners charged with the rob
bery of McAllster's store, at Cocolamus,
and Zimmerman, convicted and sentenc
ed for the robbery of Winey's store, at
Richfield, escaped from jail.
A few weeks since, Joseph B. Thatch
er, of Lack township, met with a singu
lar accident. He had hitched a young
horse to a wagon, and went to start,
when the lines were found to be knotted
just in front of the rings on the harness
and of eourse the animal was uncon
trollable. The wagon was broken to
pieces, and Thatcher was thrown out
with such force as to render him sense
less for several hours. His right arm
was so badly injured as to be paralyzed
for several weeks.
If or " The Times."
MECHANicsnURa, Pa., Dec. 29, 1876.
Mr. Editor : Seeing you frequently
publish Items of news from Cumberland,
thought probBbly It would not be amiss
to give you a little evidence of what we
are doing across the mountain in these
days when thermometers are pointing
toward zero. Now for a few local items.
During Christmas all the places of busi
ness were closed. Did I say nil Y Yes,
bo say our citizens if you ask them. But
are not saloons and hotels business
places y If you were to hear the hide
ous oaths and yells of some of our young
men, and some not so young on a holi
day evening you would think surely
some one had done business. But then
many of our friends say these must
be kept open lest we have no place to
enjoy ourselves on holidays. Our town
became quite excited over the doings of
Mr. Pig on Christmas afternoon. Mr.
Pig, after having the necessary amount
of the needful, was deprived of part of
his caudal appendage, the remainder
was shaved and greased, after this he
and about twenty men and boys were
turned loose in a lot for the race; the
conditions being that the victor should
hold Mr. Pig suspended between heaven
and earth by his posterior projection.
After many of tho contestants having
measured their full length on mother
earth and tumbled around promiscuous
ly with bleeding noses and sprained
wrists, Mr. Pig, was suspended In mid
air by one of our young African breth
ren. Those who witnessed this scene
were an Innumerable number of boys,
many gray fathers, and ladles from all
the windows and porches within sight.
We were not an eye witness but we have
it from a reliable source, we think you
will admit, when we tell you the author
is a " School-master."
But while all these scenes were trans
piring in the outside world, how differ
ent to be in tho St. Mark's Lutheran
church, the only one which had services
on Christmas, and listen to tho Bervices
commemorative of the occasion. St.
Mark's was beautifully festooned with
evergreen on this occasion.
Our public schools are closed during
the holiday week and our boys and girls
are enjoying themselves hugely with
their skates and sleds, wishing only that
the school holidays might never end.
On the Friday before Christmas the
teachers were made happy by their pu
pils presenting them tokens of their re
Bpect. W. H. Hench, principal of the
High School, received from the pupils
of that school a bIx bottled silver castor,
one of the best and prettiest we have
ever seen. G. M. D. Eckels teacher of
the grammar school was presented a
four bottled tea 'castor. M. M. Foose,
teacher of 1st Intermediate school, ac
cepted from the pupils a fine, complete
glass set. The remaining eight teachers
all received some gifts but of less value.
W. H. Hench was for several years
teacher of the Newport High School, but
has been in his present position for five
years. M. M. Foose formerly of New
Bloom field has held his present situation
for four years. , Vyx.
