As we go to press, Court Is still In Session, u case wing on trial 'that was not finished on Saturday. C. A. C. The story yon send for pub lication was published In The Timks about three years ago. The latest theory advanced In the Lebanon county tragedy case Is that the 'late Joseph T.

Henry Fonlk, Esq., of Rye twp., placed forty bushels of oats In a garner for seed, but when he came to use them a few days ago he found-nearly thirty bushels had been stolen. He says if the chap who so kindly cared for them the past winter will call on him for the balance, he can get them. Almost a Fire. On Monday last the roof of the Reformed Parsonage in this borough took fire from the Chimney. There being no trap-door to the roof, the building was for a time in great danger. A man who saw it, however, knocked a hole in 'the roof and cut off a lath to en able him to gut out, when a bucket of water extinguished the flames. No building should be without a trap-door through .the roof. Carlisle Presbytery. This body met in Mechanicsburg on last Tuesday and concluded its sessions on Wednesday night. The churches in all six counties includedln the Presbytery were generally represented those in our own county failing to be represented were Blatn and Landisburg, Centre and Millerstown had no elders present. Besides hearing the narrative of the state of religion in the various churches Presbytery appointed its quota of three ministers and three elders to represent it in the general as sembly which meets in Chicago on May 17th. Elder T. II. Milligan and Rev. J Edgar, both of this county are among ithe number. After other routine busi ly ffiess Presbytery adjourned. Fire In Lewlstown. On Tuesday last .at about noon a lire was discovered in 1 the boiler works of Willis & Bchochs at Lewis town, which shortly spread to some stables opposite. For a time it looked as though the dames would ex tend to a row of frame dwellings near by, andwdrd was sent to Harrisburg and Huntingdon for aid. This was promptly furnished, but the fire was got under control before the help arrived, and the request was countermanded by telegraph. Ten stables and the boiler works were destroyed, the loss being about $304000. Successful Pursuit of a Horse Thief. On Thuisday evening last, Mr. Wm. Kistler returned to tills place, aecom pained by Officer Anderson and several witnesses, bringing with him Charles Houser, ar rested for stealing Mr. Kistler's horse on the night of the 12th of March. We gave A full account of the stealing at the time, And the pursuit that was made of the thief the day following. It appears that the horse was rode to Philadelphia, passing through Wrightsvillo, where the thief stopped on the night after the horse was stolen. At that place he was recognised by a former acquaintance who examined the horse, but was told so fair a story that he concluded that the man was in rightful possession of the animal. A description of the stolen horse, which he afterward saw, led to the thiefB detection and arrest The ar. rest was made by Officer Roat at Harris burg on Monday evening of last week, who at ence wroto Mr. Kigtler, On Wednesday, Mr. Rlstler went down to appear against him. It was then found necessary to go to Lancaster county, in order to get the witnesses, and when he arrived there, the prisoner demanded a hearing In this county. Consequently he and the witnesses were at once brought here, when the prisoner waived an examination, and was committed to the care of the Sheriff. Mr. Kistler deserves great credit, and the thanks of every horse owner in the county, for the persevering manner In which he has pursued this thief. The arrested party is the same man who was taken from this county to the penitentiary on the 6th of May 1675,and was discharged on the 5th of March, only seven days before the last crime was committed. The horse formerly stolen was, the property of Jacob Kline near Liverpool, and on that occasion the prisoner was brought here during a Session of Court and plead guilty to the charge, and was sentenced under the name of Clarence R. Dunn. On Saturday the Court Issued an order removing Houxer, the horse thief to the Harrisburg Jail for safe keeping, the Sheriff feeling satisfied that it was not good policy to try to keep him here. When here before he came near getting out the first night of his arrival. A Rascally Husband LaBt fall James Lightner, of Richland, a town along the Lebanon Valley railroad, manled a young lady who had not yet reached her majority. A few days ago the wife be came of age and In company with her husband visited her guardian, who paid her $1 ,700 in money and a number of notes. The husband took the package containing her fortune and placed it in his pocket, stating that It was safer in his hands. When they reached home he transferred the packtige to his wife and remarked that he would join her in a few hours. Not making his appearance at midnight the wife became very uneasy and'suspectlng that she had probably been the victim of a dishonest transac tion she. examined the package and found that all the cosh was missing. She informed her neighbors of the strange and shameful proceeding, and telegrams were sentindlfTerentdlrections notifying the police authorities of the swindler's operations and requesting his arrest. A reward of $200 Is offered for his appre hension. He bears on one of his arms the image of a small child, formed with India ink. Lightner Is about twenty two years old. Patriot. Court Proceedings.

We copy the fol lowing from the Cumberland county papers of last week : Last week David O. Myers, of tho Second ward, who suffered the loss of a leg in theJate rebellion, took a contract for digging a cistern on the premises of Mr. wtouiier, on JNortn Hanover street. David needed some help to complete the job, and determined not to go outside of the fraternity for assistance. He accord ingly employed Robt. R. Matthews, of the Third ward, who lost a leg by an ac cident on the Cumberland Valley rail road some years ago. The two unfortu nates went to work with shovel and Iilck, and got through with the job on Monday last. This, we believe, is the only instance of the kind brought to our notice, and we merely make mention of the fact tiecause it Is a matter of local in terest. Carlltsle Volunteer.

While driving some cattle at a flitting in Middlesex township, near Sulphur Springs, one day last week, Charles, son or Mr. George Jacobs, was attacked by a cow. The animal rushed upon the boy, knocked him down, caught him upon her horns and thus carried him about a rod, then threw him down and tramped upon him. The boy was somewhat bruised on the head and scratched on tho side by the cow's horns, but received no serious injury. On Monday night Uiere was an incen diary attempt mado to fire the stable attached to the Branch House, lit tho occupancy of James A. Clark.
