A Farmer's Desperate Struggle.
Valentine White, ft reslilotit of Bradford
county, tills state, lives on a farm near
wlilcl) is a douse forest, lu which bear, deer
and wolf are abundant. In the rear of Mr.
White's house Is a huge frame bam, with
great cracks, caused by decaying boards,
A few mornings ago White went out to
the barn to feed his stock. As be reached
the barn he heard an uuusual commotion
inside. Thinking some of the auimals had
broken lose, bo did not open the front door
lest tbey should esonpe, but squeezed him
self through a huge aparture left by a
broken board. As soou as be entered tba
uproar increased, and be saw in the middle
of the barn floor a heifer which bad torn
herself from the stanchion by main force,
and broken one horn In the act. Clinging
to her muzzle was a large gray wolf, with
its long, sharp teeth fastened iu the ani
mal's nose with a bull dog grip, while an
other was trying to hamstring the poor
creature.
The bellowing of the heirer, the snailiug
of the wolves, and the rattling of the loose
barn floor made a deafening racket, and
the human Intruder was unnoticed. The
cow shook the wolf like a limp rag, and
Itouuded the sides cf the stable with it,
but in vain. Old White's anger at the at
tack on his stock overmastered all feelings
of prudence, and, seizing a pitchfork, be
prepared himself for an attack. No soon-
, er did the wolves perceive him, than, mad
dened by the taste of blood, they turned
from the heifer and attacked hiui. As one
of the infuriated animals sprang toward
the old man, he dealt it a mighty blow
with the fork, sending it iuto a corner.
But the other animal caught its teeth in
fhe old tnau'a right coat sleeve, and in
such close quarters that the weapon was of
no avail. After kicking Uselessly at the
animal he grasped its throat with his left
' hand and choked the wolf until it let go.
'Then seizing again the pitchfork, he dealt
Well directed blow and broke the leg of
one of tbo animals, which then dodged
through the hole behind him, and limped
off, howling dismally. The other wolf
held its ground, and whenever opportunity
was offered sprang at the old man, now
and then fastening its teeth into bis arms.
Though bleeding profusly, White con
tinued the fight, and finally, with a well
directed thrust of the pitchfork, sent the
tines through the animal's heart, killing it
almost instantly. The dead wolf is of
large size, gaunt with hunger, and with a
shaggy coat of light gray. White's clothes
were torn iuto shreds, and his face, neck
and breast were scarred deeply by the
claws of the animal.
A Baltimore Mystery.
Baltimore has a first-class mystery on
hand. While workmen were demolishing
the old Nicholson mansion on West Balti
more street they came upon an interior
wall in one of the rooms of the first floor,
which at first appearance seemed to be
built against the outer wall, but wbon they
began to tear it down they found that be
tween this interior wall and the main wall
were two carefully-constructed vaults, each
containing a human Bkeleton. The bones
soon crumbled on being exposed to the air,
but from their shape medical experts de
cided that the oue skeleton was that of a
woman and the other that of a child.
The building was eroded In 1802, and from
the indications it would seem that the in
side wall and vaults were built soon after
ward. None of the numerous tenants who
have occupied the house ever suspected
that two skeletons were concealed in its
walls. In 1841 the house passed into the
hands of the late J. T. Nicholson, a well
known Baltimore banker, who lived in It
some years, and it was owned by his fami
ly until a short time since, when it was
purchased by the German Savings Bank.
After the building was vacated by Mr.
Nicholsou it was occupied for a time by a
noted slave dealer named Grimes, but the
neighbors complained so much of the
cruelties practiced there that he was com
pelled to change his quarters.
An Exciting Runaway.
An excititig accident occurred in Texas
township, Wayne county, a few days ago,
at the funeral of a young daughter of
John Campbell. The funeral procession
had just started, when a horse attached to
the hearse became frightened at the noise
caused by the closing of the hearse door,
and ran away. The horse, hearse and cof
fin were thrown down an embankment, In
juring the horse so badly that it had to be
killed. The coffin was also thrown out of
the hearse, but was not broken. The af
tlioted family bad returned home only a
short time when the other twin daughter
also died of diphtheria.
Courting by Proxy.
A Kansas farmer, having lost bis wife,
sent to a Pittsburg friend to pick him an
other. Ono was found agreeable and ber
photo sent. Kansas farmer was pleased,
aad she was ordered on the next train and
married right away. A day or two since
the Pittsburg friend reoeived a letter from
the Kansas man stating that be was so
pleased with bis wife that be desired to re
ward his friend for securing the prize for
him. Inclosed was a deed for a fine tract
of laud in Kansas, and the mutual friend
baa gone out there to settle down.
