THE TIMES NEW BLOOM FIELD, rAM 1 JANUARY 10, 1877;
An Umbrella that cost two Lives.
Ouo Sunday afternoon, recently, in the
Httle village of Wftlton-on. Trent, England,
m the children were leaving school, one
little fellow, aged eleven, was teasing a
Kill end pulling her drees. She told him to
be quiet, and in pushing at him with an
umbrella the point accidentally entered bis
eye, and he fell unconscious to the ground,
lie wn taken home, and the effect of the
shock upon his father was so great that he
was seized with a fit, and died shortly
afterward. The little boy died about 7
o'clock the Kftino evening, and bis mother
has since been confined to the house owing
to the influence of the sudden double
bereavement.
Why Did he Leave to Suddenly?
Knmuel II. Thombum, charged with
robbing the Bank of Petersburg, Va., on
the 30th tilt, of (10,700, returned to that
city on Monday a week and surrendered
himself. lie states that he was at Harris
Imrg, Pa., when be beard of the robbery
and that be was charged with t!e crime,
but being guiltless he at once started back
to faco the charge and establish bis inno
cence. Upon being scearched but a few
dollars were found on his person. Thorn
burn positively denies taking any of the
money, but declines to tell why be went
away.
A Man Who Wanted Room.
An old man walked through Virginia
City, on bis way to "some place where
jful-lrs wouldn't crowd." He said that fifty
years ago he went to live on the Missouri
river, in the woods, where game was
abundant, nnd the solitude suited him.
Civilization in its westward progress drove
liiru out finally, and he initiated to Oregon
where he supposed that be would never be
bothered in that way. To bis surprise, a
few years ago, bo noticed that civilization
was crowding him again this time ad
vancing from the Pacific. Now be is on
his way to t,be Rocky Mountains.
A Young Woman's Mistake.
Among the passengers in a sleepiug car
of the Erie the other night were a couple
of sisters occupying a berth together.
During the night one of them had occasion
' to get up, and In getting back made a
'mistake and got into the uext berth with
'amita. She supposing it was her sister
V'ho had rolled to the front, began to nudgo
the sleeper to lie over. The fellow woke
up and seized the girl by the neck, suppos
ing be bad caught a thief. The scene
which ensued was mortifying as well as
amusing.
The police of Cleveland lately arrest
ed a man who bad been found in the woods
a mile south of the city, where he bad lived
like a beast for three weeks past. He
was the nearest resemblance to a wild man
the officers had seen iu years. His hair
and whiskers were extremely long, coarse
and shaggy, as though a comb bad never
known them. His body was clad in rags
almost innumerable. He bad on three or
lour suits or parts of suits of clothing, and
around bis legs was wrapped a thick blan
ket, and these, in addition to hollow logs,
bad kept bim from exposure in the many
cold nights be had passed in the woods. He
had a lot of old knives, a butcher's steel,
brass cow-bells, two tin pails containing
flour, and several other articles which com
posed his household furniture, and with
which he bad dug out an existence. He
said that he came from Virginia, and that
he came North on the railroad, paying his
passage by giving a conductor a picture of
himself. He was locked up on the charge
of vagrancy, and during the night the of-
. fioers were regaled by the wild man's cries
' for sugar.
From J. C. Htuith, Ksq., of Lewixburg-. Pi.
Borne eight years since I was attacked
with a very severe cough, the long con
tinuance of which alarmed me very much,
and brought me to look for some remedy
to rescue uie from the condition in which I
found myself. I applied to different phy
sicians, but received no benefit. Wistar's
Balsam op Wild Chkrky was recom
mended. I gave it, a trial, and was reliev
ed of my cough before using half a bottle.
I kept on using it until permanently cured.
I would also say that several of my friends
have used the Unlsam with astonising
resulta. Yours truly, J. C. Smith.
Caution ! Beware of preparations bear
ing similar names. Examine the bottle
carefully before purchasing, and be sure
you get Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry, having the signature of "I.Butts"
on the wrapper.
50 cents and f 1 a bottle.
tSF" A gang of mail robbers, operating
between Philadelphia and New York, has
been caught and put where they cannot
ply their trade. They were in the habit of
stealing the mull bags from the wagons
while they where being hauled from the
wharf to the New York post office." A
large amount of money, in checks, was
taken from let t-o is, and some of them,
with forged endorsements, were cashed at
the Philadelphia banks.
t3T At Trenton, N. J., last week, Mon
day, all the employes of the Trenton
potteries left their work, iu consequence of
u general reduction of twenty per cent, in
their wages. Tbey number loOO persons.
tW The annual sale of pews iu Plymouth
Church, Brooklyn, took pluoe last week.
The total amount realized was $18,421,50,
which was f 16,000 less than last year. .
