some mistake about the horse getting
fast at the crossing below Newport, as
that crossing is new and such an acci

The D. &. B. R. R. The success of the
Duncannon and Bloomfield Itallroad
seems now to be a fixed fact. The sub
scriptions are steadily Increasing and the
determination of the directors is to push
the grading through this fall. The com
mittee sent to consult with the P.
R. B. officials were assured that If the
road was made ready for the iron, that
the Iron and other equipments for a
first-class road would be furnished by
them. We sincerely hope that the
property owners that will be benefitted
by this enterprise who have not already
subscribed, will no longer delay in
placing their names on the books.
Were it not for the engagements oc
casioned by court week, the prelimina
ries required to put the company Into
working order, would no doubt be com
pleted this week, as it is there will be
but a few days more delay. The sooner
the road is built, the sooner will the
iron that Is In the hills in this vicinity
be turned into cash, the sooner will em
ployment be plentifully furnished to our
working people, and the sooner will the
publio feel the benefit of Increased bus
iness, caused by the circulation of more
money in our midst.

News.

Esq., hands us the following report of
the weather for the month of July, 1879:
Average of Thermometer at 8 o'clock
A. M. 733, and of the Barometer 30
inches minus 6-tenths. Average of the

Tuesday the 1st the coldest, the Ther
mometer slnkiug to 50. On Friday the

Foot Cut. On Wednesday afternoon
an accident occurred at Cook's saw mill,
by which a son of Capt. H. S. Dlmni
had his foot badly injured. The Captain
attends to the sawing of shingles and
his son gathers the shingles from the
saw. On this occasion, a shingle fell
under the saw and the lad attempted to
get it with his foot ; but instead of get
ting the shingle the saw caught his foot,
and in au instant the lad's foot was cut
on the under side almost to the heel and
in to the bone. One of his toes was saw
ed off, with the exception of a small
piece of skin which held it, and another
toe was so badly injured that amputa
tion was necessary. Dr. Stites, the at
tending physician, says that from the
nature of the wound, it will take a long
time to heal ; but, if care is taken, the
boy will not be lamed. Ledger.
A Singular Case. The Harrisburg
" Patriot" says : A most singular case
of paralysis occurred in Middletown,
this county. It seems Miss Ellenata
Diehl went to Hummelstown on a visit
last October where she remained for
one week. Upon returning to her home
in Middletown where her parents reside
she, the day after her return while sit
ting in a rocking-chair, at once began to
swell at the hips to such an' extent as to
fasten her in the chair. She did not feel
that she touched the chair even, bub
it seems that she did not feel because she
was paralyzed in the lower half of her
body. Her friends after taking her out
of the chair laid her on the bed and she
Immediately took a position of lying on
her stomach. She laid in this position
for three months. It was found on ex
amining her that there were two large
spots, one on each hip about the size of
a man's hand, one on her back and one
on her ankle, where the flesh was per
fectly black and dead. These wre poul
ticed to make them soft, and then cut
out, all except one ; this was in the back
and it remained hard. Her brother,Mr.
Samuel Diehl, an Intelligent laboring
man, poulticed it for a couple of days,
until it became soft like the rest and
then without the assistance of the doc
tor cut it out himself. In doing so he
said he could see her spine exposed for
a space of several inches. The young
girl is now sitting up and seems to be
happy and contented.
What is remarkable about this case is
that there was nothing that she knew of
to produce this condition of her system,
and that during her confinement in bed
and since she has been as hearty as she
could be, and able to eat, in the language
of her father, " like a wood chopper."
She seemed, through the whole of her
confinement, to be gay and happy, aa
may be evidenced by the fact that while
the doctor was cutting the dead flesh out
of her he accidentally cut a blood vessel,
and the blood spurted out in quite a
stream across the room. The doctor was
afraid she would faint, but she only
laughed heartily and seemed to think it
was amusing.
The doctor in attendance was Doctor
Behm, of Middletown. Every person,
nu well as the doctor, was completely
bothered by her case never having
seen or heard of anything of the kind
before. The young lady is eighteen
years old, is quite intelligent and bright.
Dozens of people have been to see her
as many as nineteen in a day on ac
count of her singular case.
Duncannon Items. The Factory has sus
pended operations a few weeks to repair
the boilers.
A cow belonging to Cornelius Buskins
was killed on the railroad at the upper
end of town on Thursday last.
Two heifers belonging to General
Langhorn Wister were poisoned the
other day by eating Paris Green. One
died in two and the other in three days
after eating the poison.
Mr. Joseph Smith at the Juniata
Bridge had a lot of provisions stolen
from his cellar on Monday night.
A young son of Eleazer Elliot while
pushing a small car with a lot of other
hoys at the rolling mill on Sunday last
and was run over by the car, receiving
a cut on the arm and bruised some about
the body. Record.
Fatal Accident. The Chambersburg
" Spirit" says an accident which unfor
tunately had a fatal result occurred on
the farm occupied by Mr. Baker, near
Frederick's mill, a mile west of Marlon,
on Saturday last. A wagon shed was
being moved and a number of neigh
bors were present and assisting among
them John Crist, who lives near Gult
ner's school-house. , In taking down
the frame of the shed, one of the upper
timbers fell on Mr. Crist, throwing him
down and striking him across the upper
portion of his abdomen. He was res
cused immediately and sat up and said
he was not much hurt, but It was soon
perceived that he was seriously injured
and they carried him into Mr. Baker's
and put him to bed. This was about 0
P. M., on Saturday. A physician was
sent for, but he did not arrive till Sun
day morning. His services did not
avail to save the unfortunate man, who
died about ten o'clock on Sunday night.
Juniata County. We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week.
The Trustees of the Lutheran congre
gation in this place held a meeting on
Tuesday, and resolved id repair the
church building. Joseph Brlndle was
authorized to report a plan with specifi
cations, on Saturday a week, at a cost
not to exceed two thousand dollars.
Last Sabbath morning, about the time
of the close of the morning Bervice in
the Lutheran church, Mr. Hinkle, Jr.,
of this place, fell to the floor in an un
conscious state. He was carried into the
vestibule, where he soon regained his
consciousness.
One night last week Mr. John Philips,
of Bealetown, lost a valuable horse. The
animal had been in the habit of scaring
at the lightning, and during the night a
heavy shower of rain fell accompanied
by thunder and lightning, and It is
supposed the horse became frightened
and jumped over a fence and fell down
a steep embankment into the creek, and
in falling broke his neck.
Simon P. Leyder and David KaufT
man. citizens of Mlfllin county, were re
turning In a buggy, from a visit to
friends in this county, one day last week.
At Stroud's Mills, in the former county,
the horse frightened, wheeled in the
road suddenly, upset the buggy, and
threw both men out. Kauffmau, who
was unhurt; caught the frightened ani
mal. Leyder was severely bruised. One
wheel of the buggy was broken, and the
top of the buggy was damaged.
Cumberland County. We copy the fol
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week :
While Ed. Crane was sprouting the
other week he heard a noise in the
leaves behind him, and on looking up
he saw an enormous blacksnake poised
for a spring. He jumped back and his
snakeship alighted at his feet. He was
much frightened, but managed to kill it.
It measured about five feet.
On Thursday last, Mr. Bobert Fender
grass, an inmate at the County Poor
House, whilst at work, made a misstep,
and injured his right leg badly. Steward
Polllnger, not wishing to put any addi
tional cost on the county, and knowing
that Mr. Ege was a good mechanio, had
had him examine the limb. He found
it broken between the ankle and knee.
He immediately got to work and re
duced the fracture, and Bobert is get
ting along quite comfortably.
A young man named Sherick, at
present stopping near Plalnfield at
tempted to shoot a bird with a shot gun.
He claimed to have hit it and knocked
some feathers off, but a comrade named
Eberts, contended that he had not, and
that he conld not hit him if he fired at
him at a fair distance. The distance
was agreed upon, and Eberts placed
himself in position as target. Sherick
aimed, and fired, but came so near it that
Eberts heard the shot whizzing by him.
This is queer kind of amusement, but
boys ore up to all sorts of sport now-a-days
and must be indulged.
On Saturday afternoon last about
two o'clock, says the Echo Mr. A.
Mansfield, superintendent of the Mt.
Holly paper company, met with an
accident miraculous in its results. The
particulars of which are about as follows:
He was on his way to the brick paper
mill and while In the act of crossing
the bridge which spans the creek, a
short distance west of the mill, the horse
he was driving frightened at some new
plank which had recently been put
down, and commenced backing. The
wagon was brought against the side
railing of the bridge with such force as
to cause It to give way and all were pre
cipitated to the water beneath, a distance
of about fifteen feet. The noise of the
accident soon brought a number of per
sons to the scene and Mr. Mansfield was
taken from the water, which was about
four or five feet deep, and, strange to say,
was not injured in the least. The horse
fell upon its back and was considerably
used up. The only damage done to the
wagon was the breaking of one of the
iron stays which support the top.

The clicking of the harvesters are no more
heard. Wheat Is a failure here this season. It
will hardly average eight bushels per acre. Late
frosts ana the Chinch bug is the cause of the
failure. These bugs came very early In the
Spring, but they did not appear to hurt the wheat
much until It was about heading out, by tills time
their number Increased very much and they went
through wheat llelds killing all the wheat as they
went, late spring wheat was destroyed the most,
a number of acres were not harvested at all.
Headers were in demand this season as the straw
was very short We have the promise of a great
yield of corn, the corn Is already made.- I have no
doubt but there will be four uushela of corn this
season to one of last season, the weather was
very favorable for corn the past four weeks,
Another cyclone Is reported to have passed
over Brookville, Saline county, on last Friday the
2.ith Inst. We have had these destructive storms
all around us this summer, but this section ot
country escaped thein tuns far though we had
some heavy winds but doing no harm. I would

Editor Times t Saturday the 2nd day of
August 1879 will long be remembered by many
who attended the grand picnic in Btambaugh's
woods near Green Park. Before eight o'clock
the crowd began to assemble, pedestrians after
pedestrians, and vehicle after vehicle contin
ued to come in from all directions, until by
two o'clock the number of persons present
exceeded one thousand In number. Nearly
half a score of hucksters had stationed them
selves In the most prominent places on the
ground to supply the demands of the hungry
crowd.
About noon tho announcement was made
through a number of bills posted up in con
spicuous places that the Landisburg Cornet
Band would be addressed at two o'clock P.M.
When the appointed time arrived the Band
marched to the place designated for the
audience to assemble, at the same time dis
coursing some excellent music. After the
playing of the band for a short time, Mr. 8. P.
Btambaugh formorly a stndent of Mlllersvllle
Normal Bchool Introduced Prof. G. W. Gehr,
who then delivered a very able, appropriate
and eloquent address. Although Prof. Gehr
never had much practice in publio speaking,
it is conceded by all who ever heard him, that
he has more than an ordinary talent as an
orator. Taking all things into consideration
the picnic passed off very pleasantly. '

The Sandy Hill Festival.
Mr. Editor: Saturday July 26th, the day ap
pointed for tills festival, dawned with a lowering
sky and with a continuation of the showers oi
Friday neccssltatiiiR the postponing of the festivi
ties uutil Monday or the "first fair day" that "old
1'robs.," in his goodness of heart should K'untus.
That many were disappointed It Is needless to
mention, we have all felt the same under similar
circumstances. Hut why should we 11 ml fault
with the weatliei? The rain was needed and the
growing crops were sulfeiing greatly fur the want
of it. and instead of Idly complaining, we ought
always, under such circumstances, accept thank
fully the gifts "the Gods grants us."
On Monday morning, notwithstanding the
threatening appearance of the heavens, and the
depression necessarily produced by one disap
pointment, the managers, with commendable
enl, neiit In work carty. ami soon the beautiful
grove presented an animated fpectncle. The
tents n ml booth erected the preeedlngweek were
soon tilled with all kinds of edible food. Visitors
In holiday garb beftan to come In. nnd ere long
the heart of the " wateimllllon" man ond of the
generalissimo of llieke cream department, be
gan to swell with admiration lor the wonderful
appetite of then-customer. I must not forget
the pea-nut stand i crack, crack I on all sides I
Who can calculate the amount of motive power
necessary to move those powerful maxillary
whose every upward motion foretold death to
some single or double jointed pea nut.
We are happy to sny that all those objectiona
ble features usually found at festivals were "con.
splcuous by their absence." The transaction
were, In every respect, legitimate: an Innovation
that cannot be too soon adopted by those who
conduct festivals.
During the forenoon Fev. M. C. Piper, the mov.
Ing spirit of the enterprise, stated that the ob
ject of the festival was to help pay the debt rest
ing on the M. E. parsonage In Itmln. Illsremarx
were clear-cut and forcible, and exactly suited
the day and occasion.
In order to glv variety to the exercises, some
music-loving spirits, under the direction of Mr.
H. W. Blxler sang, with organ accompaniment,
quite a number of choice pieces.
The dinner I will not attempt to describe; suftl
clent to say Its appearance was a credit to the
liberality of the community that provided It.
Many of the choicest cakes and best dishes were
furnished by persons out-sldeof the M. K. church,
and thanks are due them and cheerfully given for
their offerings.
Your reporter has little more to say. the festi
val commit tee had provided food and drink which
they wished to dispose of. the people came, saw,
bought and devoured, Everything was sold at
a reasonable price: the customer were well
treated; the arrangements vere complete, and
we are confident all persons who were present,
went away satisfied.
The festival, notwithstanding It was postponed,
and was held on Monday a day not popular aa a
holiday among farmers, was a grand success. The
net proceeds were about one hundred dollar.
The Main Cornet Hand was present and did
themselves credit. The new bandwagon presents
a line appearance and is unsurpassed In the
county. Yours, Mbdiccs.
