p A Rat Story. A lady in this borough
had a bag of yeast cakes hanging in
euch a manner that she thought them
afe from the rats. One evening, hear
ing a noise In that vlncinlty, she went
up to ascertain the cause, and found It
was occasioned by the dropping of a
mcatrhook oa the floor, a lot of these
hooks having been put near there while
not In use. On further investigation it
was found that the rats bad hung one of
the hooks from a nail above, and then
by hanging on others had commenced a
chain which they continued until It
gave them access to the bag of rising
cakes. The truth of this statement is
vouched for by several parties who saw
the chain while the rats were making it
and nfter It was completed.

Pounding. Members of Rev. John
Edgar's church and congregation invad
ed his premises last Tuesday evening,
luden with many good things for the
pastor and his household. It seems
somewhat irregular to call such an affair
a pound party when many carried what
In weight would almost equal their own
avoirdupois, but such we believe Is the
fashionable name for surprises of this
kind. When displayed on the long ex
tension table,and in the adjoining rooms,
it was hard to say which looked most
smiling, the ample provisions, or the
handsome ladies who put them in
order preparatory to the masculine
speeches which followed.

Huntingdon JSrews says : On Friday af
ternoon last, Robert B. My ton, a well
known farmer, who resides on the Sha
vers creek road, five miles from Peters
burg, nearly met his death by the blow
of a hatchet inflicted by a young man
named Andrew Weaver. We learn that
the young man came to Mr. My ton's
house on the Wednesday previous In
search of work, which he obtained. He
was furnished with a room in the house
and it was not long before he tried to
put in execution the plot he had con
ceived to murder Mr. Myton for bus
money, which be had Been him have in
his possession. Ou Thursday, it is be
lieved, he watched several opportunities
to find Mr. Myton alone, but fulled. On
Friday aweek.he awaited the time when
they went to curry the horses in tho
barn, which is some distance from the
house, and as Mr. Myton hod his back
turned to him, and was stooping down
to curry the horse's leg, he struck him a
blow upon the back of the head with
the dull edge of a hatchet,causlng a gash
two Inches long. The blow was suffi
cient to render Mr. Myton Insensible for
a few minutes, and had it not been that
he was wearing a stiff bat, through the
band of which the hatchet penetrated,
death might have resulted. When he
recovered consciousness he found him
self lying between the horses and the
young man gbne. He went to the road
side, and seeing him running away, he
called to his son George and Mr. C. Wil
son, who were coming home to catch
him. They pursued him for some dis
tance, when he turned upon them with
a loaded revolver that he had stolen
from a drawer in Mr. Myton's house.
The men were not prepared with weap
ons to attack him and he continued to
run ; but he was followed on horseback
by Mr. Fisher, a neighboring farmer,
who overtook him and compelled him
to surrender. He was given in charge
of the constable at Petersburg, who
lodged him in jail on Saturday morn
ing. .
Tho culprit is only twenty years of
age, and says he has no parents living,
but claims that his home is in Perry
county.

Mil. Kditor Dear Sir: As you have no regit.
Inr correspondent In our town, we will endeavor
to give you a few Items which may be of interest
to some of your many readers.
Yesterday was the last Friday of the month
which is well known s Directors Day at the poor
house. The day passed oil quite lively, and there
seemed to be much sympathy manifested
towards the poor, Judging from the numbers (hat
assembled at the poor houso. There Is something
about I hose visitations, moreover we don't, u inlet
s' mid. end that Is these good people bring no
gifts with them to give to the poor, and when
they go through the building to see these poor un
fortunates they hvs no word of cheer and conso
lation for them, but they go through the Inmate's
department In a very short time, nothwltlistand
ing thev sometimes spend the greater part of the
day In the more pleasant parts of the building,
and then there Is something stranpe about tho
way those large dinners are disposed of; It seems
that these good people we call visitors eat the big
dinners, and the poor unfortunate Inmates don't.
Ho you can readllv see the difference, and how
these faithful good people shower down the bless
ings Innumerable upon the poor inmates. Now
some of your readers who have been neglecting
this important duty of visiting the poor, may
wonder who Ihese faithful ones are, and indeed
we wonder who they are too some times. Pomeof
the unfaithful may wonder If there are m,iny
who discharge their duties on director davs: and
we would say that on the day previous to the last,
there was reported to have tasen dinner there
about one hundred, but owing to some cause or
other there was not so many there on the last day
there being only about seventv-Uvo for dinner,
but as a portion of them stayed for supper, we
suppose the blessings were to aqual the previous.
We would conclude by saylngthat If thedlrectors
of the famous Institution are desirous of magni
fying the blessings of via tors and inmates; let
them remember that It Is more blessed to give
tnan to receive, and give visitors the full share
of the blessings, by letting them give litty cents
for big dinners at the poor house,

Cumberland County. We copy the fol
lowing from the Cumberland county
papers of last week :
Mr. Levi Snyder, who lives in Lower
Frankfort township, about a half mile
east of the Stone church, suffered a loss
on Sunday last by the burning of his
house. Mr. S. was at church when he
was informed that his residence was in
flames, and at once hastening to the
spot, he, with the help of his neighbors,
succeeded In rescuing a considerable
portion of his household goods. The
fire was first seen by Mr. James Jack
son, who happened to be passing along
the road, and who at once gave the
alarm and rendered all the assistance
possible. The building was new, having
been erected last summer, anu was in
sured for $400 in the Lurgan Fire
Insurance Co., of Franklin county, but
this amount does not cover Mr. S.'s
entire loss, as it is estimated to reach
five or six hundred dollars. The fire is
supposed to have originated from a
defective flue.
On Wednesday of last week, Mrs,
Louis Weidmau, who resides on East
Pomfret street, next door to Oroome's
grocery, was engaged at baking. A
neighbor came in and engaged her in
conversation, and while thus engaged
she turned her back to the stove, which
was very hot. A moment afterwards
she was startled to find her dress on fire,
She tried to extinguish the flames with
her hands, and her friend assisted, but
witn no success. he tnen ran out on
the street, and threw herself upon the
snow. Just then a man came along,
wno lent uls etlorts to rescue the poor
woman from her dauger, but did not
succeed until she was severely burnt.
Juniata County. We copy the follow.
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week.
Miss Ann Kellers, while walking along
the pavement in McAllisterville one day
last week, was stricken witn paralysis.
fine is sun in an unconscious state.
un Tuesday morning a tine doe ran
into the barn yard of Mr. lieashore, in
Milford township. Mr. B. went for it,
oud ine aeer was noi wining to be cap
tured at that time and started off at
break-neck speed. Mr. B. followed after.
and came upon it on the ice on Rohm's
mill dam, and captured it. The deer
had, very likely, been chased from the
mountain by dogs and worried out so
that it had to give up and allow itself to
ue captured. Democrat ana Jieguter,
On Wednesday morning between
anu o o ciock an attempt was made by
thieves to enter the residence of Dr. W.
J. Rice, of Port Royal. Mrs. Oarver, of
i-erry county, sister to Dr. 14.. who is
visiting her brother, heard the thief at
work trying to open the frontdoor, but
could not think what occasioned the
noise until the villains sudceded in
opening the door, when she gave the
alarm, and the thief was frightened
away before he could secure any goods.
On Saturday morning last Mr. Uriah
Ouss and his son Cloyd, who resides in
Turbett township, went out into a field
on nis larin witli a sled to get some
wood. After loading the sled Clovd
drove back to the house with it, a dis
tance of about half a mile. After he
had started away Mr. Ouss cut down a
tree, and was seen doing so by Ner Me
loy who was across the Tuscarora creek
opposite to where Mr. Guss was. Cloyd
Cluss returned with the sled in about
half an hour and found his father fasten
ed by the limbs of the tree and standing
on his feet with his body bent forward
and down and bis head near his feet. He'
made haste and liberated his father ; but
alas, he wm dead, with his neck, back,
several ribs and an arm and leg broken.
The son then made an alarm and se
cured the assistance of Mrs. William
Kennedy, by whoce aid the dead body
of Mr. Guss was placed on the sled and
taken to his home. It is thought that
when the tree was cut off, a large limb
prevented it from going clear to the
ground and that Mr. Ouss then cut the
limb off, when It fell and caused his
death as aforementioned.
