Jacob Ecket, aged 76 years, ' and his
wife a few years younger, reside in Silver
Spring township on their farm, nearthe
Cumberland Valley railroad, two miles
miles west of Mechanicsburg. They,
with Hannah Fagan, a lady 4 about the
same age as Mrs. Ecket, were the only
occupants of the house.
Between 11 and 12 o'clock Monday
night last, six men with raabked faces
knocked for admission at the front door.
When Mr. E. attempted to run for his
gun he was seized by a powerful , man
who had ascended the stairs, and had a
pistol thrust in his face. Home of the
other robbers came to the assistance of
the first outlaw, when Mr.E.was thrown
upon a bed and securely bound with a
leather strap. Mrs. Fagan was next
tied, and threats were uttered to the
effect that they would kill the first per
son who gave the alarm. s '
The robbers next struck a light ; made
Mrs. Eckert go with them to search the
house, brandishing a butcher knife
across her throat ; took her down stairs ;
forced her to tell where some money
was put away in a bureau drawer In the
front room $235 which they stole;
then took her up stairs, threw her upon
the floor and securely tied her.

pies, then left the premises.
When they had gone Mrs. Fagan
managed to untie the knots with Tier
teeth, got her handi free and re
leased Mrs. Eckert, The woman then
began to scream, which brought to their
assistance Mr. Benjamin Albright, a
neighbor, who lives one-eighth of a mile
from the scene of the outrage. He re
leased Mr. Eckert, and among other
neighbors two sons of Mr. Eckert were
Immediately sent for. No identification
of the robbers was had. The women
say that one was a tall, stout man, that
another was a short, stout man, with a
heavy black moustache.
Mr. and Mrs. Eckert are feeble as well
as old, having lately recovered from
serious illness ; the latter 1b nearly blind,
and Mrs. Fugon is quite deaf. Consider
ing the treatment they received, they
have pretty clear Ideas of the transac
tion. They all were a great deal bruised,
and now are suffering considerably.

For The Bloomfleld Timea.
The Woods Festival.
Mb. Editor i The Grand Festival in the
woods, like all others groat events which mark
epochs in history, has had Its day, was well
attended, and lu every respect, exceeded its
loudly heralded promises.
The grand old Camp ground Is a beautiful
spot well worth visiting. For fifty-six years
it has been quietly growing In public favor,
until to-day there is not a more popular grove
In the "Upper End." Located almost on the
summit of what is known as Bandy Hill, its
fine old oaks respond by gentle rustlings of the
zephyrs blowing almost continually from the
shady Conecocheque.
In this grove the festival tents were pitched,
and within the tents the tables were conveni
ently and tastefully arranged.
There was an abundance of provlons, and
Judging by the way the vacant seats at the din
ner tables, were taken, the viands were well
appreciated. Notwithstanding the great num
ber of those seeking admittance to the tables
at one time, I was surprised to see so little con
fusion. Some unavoidable delays occurred,
but nothing thakcould bo construed Into in
tentional neglect.
By 9 o'clock many persons were on the ground
enjoying the cool breeze and listening to music
wlll-reBdured by the Blaln band.
Although a new band and deprived of many
of the advantages accessible to bands in larger
towns, they are still capable of discoursing ex.
callent music, and X am sure that their efforts
on the 80th of July, were well appreciated and
nnstintlngly commended.
At 10 o'clock, according to programme, the
" silver tongaed orators" were on hand, and
after a short prayer by the Rev. Piper, that
whole souled, genial, Nestorlan orator Prof.
Rentz, of Andersonburg, gava ot one of his
characteristic speeches. " Dare to be a Dan
iel" was his theme. His exordium was well
timed, and had he began it with a reference to
the age of Pericles or the metempsychosis of
Pythagoras, it might have been mistaken for
the prelude to one of the Rev. Jos. Cooke's
Boston Monday Lectures. I mean It was ex
ceedingly apropot. ...-.1,1,.,
Music by the band was next announced by
the President, Mr. Win. Culberteon, after
which to the front of the rostrum, Stepped our
old and esteemed Mend, Rev. Luther Klstler.
The gentleman is co longer nascent orator at
his speech amply proved. His remarks were
appropriate and well received.
Rev. R. McPhersoa was the third speaker,
and ably maintained his reputation as a suc
cessful speaker. Rev. Piper, the life and soul
of the festival enterprise, was the last speaker.
Ills words were earnest and to the point and
fair exponents of the great energy of the man.
By this time the various departments of the
festival were In complete working order, and
they wr working with all their strength.
Scattered promiscuously through the grove
were straggling turtles of ladles and gentle
men. .
It was an animated picture and well-worth a
few minutes attention. In the back-ground
might be seen a few persons that bad evidently
come to perform what seemed a duty. That
was the proper place to look for the dignified,
sedate and contemplative man. On the green
sward In front of them our young folks were
doing their best to have a good time, but on
account of the " thermal fiend," were practic
ing the golen rule of political economy with a
vim attaining "the maximum of utilities with
the minimum of human efforts." Hore and
there a would-be Bean Brummel would appear
on the scene whose tzquMlt git up helped to
give variety to the scene. In the evening the
grounds were brilliantly Illuminated, and the
demand for ice-cream and cake was kept. up
until a late hour. ' The festival was a grand
enccess financially, and certainly an equal suc
cess, sociably. .

Deor Blr 1 I have given your Speed Accelera
tors a thorough test, single, double, attached
them to the reins, to the saddle, overdraw and
check-rein. In my Judgment they are the
most excellent things ever Invented to produce
speed and comfort for horses.
Horsemen and humanitarians have for years
sought to Invent attachments for horses'
mouths, the former looking principally to
speed, the latter seeking relief for the horse
from the strain of checks, and bits on the
month. The Accelerators accomplish both, for
they remove the permanent strain of checks
and bits from the mouth and head of the horse
by Imparting the proper elasticity, which the
horse feels Immediately, and Improves at once
In style and speed. Owners of horses, whether
trotters, roadsters, coach or business horses,
should use them. Any horseman who gives
your Accelerators a trial will not only Indorse
what I say, but recommend them to every one.

Hoping you will sncceed In establishing what

convinced of their usefulness.
