f Smash Up. On Sunday morning a
horse belonging to Wilson Gray, broke
away from where he was hitched in
front of the Lutheran church at Ickes
burg, and started to run, following the
buggy just driven past by Rev. J. W.
Cleaver. Mr. C. turned into a cross
street, thinking the ruu-away horse
would keep up the Main street, but he
turned after him, and overtook him just
after getting around the corner, the
wheel striking the perch-pole of Mr.
Cleaver's buggy breaking and bending
it, then running up over the seat and
generally demoralizing the vehicle. Mr.
Oray's horse was knocked down by the
collision but before he could be secured
he got up and kicked himself clear of
the wreck. Mr. Cleaver's horse did not
get away and no damage was done to the
animal or the occupants of the buggy.

ered In the barn belonging to Mr. John
Boden, in Bavllle twp. The alarm
was at once given by the girl who made
the discovery, and every exertion was
made to save the stock. This they suc
ceeded in saving except two young cat
tle which were burned. Two mowers, a
four-horse wagon, two sled a, a good horse
power, two hay ladders, gears, about
thirty tons of hay, a large quantity of
grain and many other farming instru
ments were also destroyed.
While the barn was burning, fire was
discovered In the house, in such a place
that it must also have been fired at the
same time as the barn. Most of the fur
niture and much of the weaving apparel
was saved, but it was found that some
of the most valuable articles had been
stolen, proving that burglary had been
committed too.
The smoke house was also fired, but
most of the meat had been previously
stolen. The loss by fire is about $7,500,
two-thirds covered by insurance. Mr.
B. and his wife were at Waterford,
uniata county on the night of the fire.
Attempt to Kill. A few days ago Mr.
Milton B. Eshelman, of Newport, was
shot in the arm by a young man named
Harry B. Townsley, while at Inter
course, Lancaster county. Mr. E. had
advanced money to the mother of the
young man, and had recently taken
steps to secure the debt. This had made
bad feeling aud was the cause of the at
tack, which was cowardly In the ex
treme, the shooting being done while
Mr. E. was shaking hands with a friend.
The position the arm was in, caused the
bullet the take effect there, and saved
him from a more serious injury. Though
making a painful wound, it fortunately
caused no dangerous one. The young
chap was arrested on the charge of at
tempt to murder and his mother and
step-father were arrested as accessories,
as it is considered there that they were
the instigators of the crime.
Road Engine. On Thursday a week,
considerable excitement was occasioned
in town by the arrival from Waynes
boro' of a steam road engine, built by
Frick & Co., and drawing a Geiser
Separator. When it arrived on the
Square, the engineer run his engine two
or three times around, making turns
almost as short as could be done by a
carriage. Long before it arrived, Balti
more street, from Long's hill to Imbrie's,
was lined with people to see the coming
wonder, and when it put in an appear
B ance over Imbrie's hill, the large crowd
was excited intensely. A troupe of
small boys followed it through thestreet,
shouting and yelling and appeared to
enjoy the entree as if it had been a cir
cus. The machine was stopped long
enough on Centre Square to give the
citizens a chance to inspect it, when the
.engineer pulled his throttle aud steamed
Wway on the return to Waynesboro.

"Baby-farming" is carried on exten
sively among residents of this place Jrres
pectful of color, says the Herald. Like
wise irrespective of season.
The rumored finding of a new born
babe in a lot on East South street, has
occasioned considerable talk. Another
case of "baby-farming," we presume.

On Tuesday of last week, Milton Neg
ley, son of John Negley.of Mifflin twp.,
shot a large eagle on a tree top near
Bridgewater school house. The eagle
was one of a number that had been in
the vicinity. It measured seven and a
half feet from tip to tip of its wings.
Adam Koons brought the bird to town,
and Frank Baker will mount it in taxi
dermist style as a permanent curiosity.
The people of Mechanicsburg were
startled on Monday morning by the an
nouncement that Mrs. Mary ii. Moore,
widow of Alfred Moore, deceased, had
hanged herself during the night. It
appears that ever since the loss of her
residence by fire last winter and the loss
of the insurance thereon. Mrs. Moore
has suffered greatly in mind. She had
re-built her house and had it nearly com
pleted, boarding, during its building
with Mrs. Lindsey, on Locust street,
three doors from her new house. At
her usual time on Sunday night, Mrs.
Moore retired but got up about twelve
o'clock and went out. Her prolonged
absence alarmed the family and search
was made for her, and about an hour
thereafter her lifeless body was found
hanging to an apple tree in her own lot,
upon which she had hanged herself.
The Newville Star says : " A strange
freak of nature is to be seen in the yard
belonging to Harry Curry, at the head
of Main street. Home time during Satur
day the earth sank in a space about six
feet square, leaving a dark and dismal
cavern where bad been a bed of vegeta
bles. The ground for yards around in
seamed and cracked, and trembles as it
is stopped on, giving Indications of sink
ing at every moment. The hole is not
perpendicular, but sinks in a slanting
direction, and, although probed with a
long pole, no bottom has been found.
It is supposed to have been caused by an
underground stream of water washing
out a cavity, as Harry Curry says that
while dlcrufinar a cellnr near that place
some years ago, he distinctly heard the
sound of ruHhlng water.

was so unfortunate as to inflict perhaps
fatal bodily injuries upon himself last
fall while in the act of climbing over a
fence, is in a very precarious condition,
and little hope Is entertained of his re
covery. Dr. Graham has been adminis

his power to relieve him, but with little
effect. He is a great sufferer.
J. Howard McFarlane has a short

seriously hurt, the fall caused him much
pain, and his back and shoulders are
much bruised.
