Hartzell of Newport was found dead in the stable on Sunday morning a week. The hotel at the Warm Springs will soon close for the season, and parties Intending to visit that place should bear that in mind. Potatoes seem to have beat the bugs this year. We had some vines that the bugs eat nearly up, but the potatoes turned out well. Trade must be dull in the city judging from the number of salesmen who can be spared from there. There were thir teen drummers in this place last week. On the night of the 16th inst., a large barn on the farm of Denny Findly, near Burnt Cabins, was burned with all its contents. The tire was incendiary. The chap who prophesied a hot tl me between the 18th and 24th, hit it exact ly. We hope he will not give us any more such this year. J. J.

Mr. Jerry Billow formerly of this place, now of Renovo, was on a visit here on Friday last. In driving through town he was unfortunate enough to break the spindle of his buggy, but no was hurt. A Democrat pole was raised at Lan disburg on Saturday. Democratic help being rather scarce some Republicans goodnaturedly gave a helping hand. During the operation Mr. Chas. Kell and Mr. Henry Rinesmith were both somewhat injured. Joel Lobaugh, aged 68 years and 2 months, died at his home in Page co., Iowa, on the 13th inst., of dropsy. He was a brother of Q. W. Lobaugh, of Newport, and was born in Adams coun ty, this State. He at one time resided near Newport, also in Raccoon Valley, this county. A young lady in Tyrone township was somewhat annoyed by a pet pig that would eat up the chicken feed lie fore the chickens had a fair show. A few days since, to drive the pig away, she threw a hammer at it, which struck so fair that the blow instantly killed it, and fresh pork was consequently put on the market rather early in the season.

A lad named George Miller, aged about 1 1 years, son of Davis Miller of Millers town fell from a load of wood on Satur day morning, breaking his Bhoulder. The loaded wagon also passed over his hips. His injuries were attended to by Dr. Dean, and on Saturday evening the lad seemed to be getting along as well as couiu ue expecteu. A buggy belonging to Mr. Oliver Rice collided with the hack which ran from town to the camp, on Sunday evening. The damage consisted of a wrecked hind wheel to the buggy. The horse did not get away and no one was hurt. The accident happened near Sheafler's farm, and was caused by Mr. Rice stopping in the middle of the road.

Last week while Jacob Grim, a lad about four years of age, residing in Conewago township, York county, was sitting on a wheelbarrow, with an open pocket knife in his hand, he fell to the ground, the blade pene trating his abdomen below the lower rib. He was picked up, the knife drawn and Dr. A. V. Gross of Manchester sum moned. Despite all medical skill, the lad died. Killed by a Snake. The Dlllsburg BuU letin of last week says : " One evening last week, Harry Spahr, living on Geo. P. Weavers' farm, discovered that one of his cowa were missing. He went in search of her, and to his astonishment found her lying dead. Upon raising the cow's head a large black snake appeared from underneath her. The cow was found lying near some water in the field, and the supposition is that while she was drinking the snake wrapped itself around her neck and choked her. Horse Stolen. On Friday morning last a week, a valuable three year old sorrel mare was stolen from the stable of J. D. Walck, about five miles northwest of Greencastle. A young son of Mr. Walck tracked the mare several miles, and at last overtook her and the thief. The man finding he was pursued, dismount ed and ran through the fields. Young Mr. Walck recognized him as William Stlckel, and so informed his father, who made information against Stlckel. Stlckel was captured in Greencastle that night, and in default of 500 ball, was committed to jail, where he now Is. Repository, Game Laws.

A Sad Acoldent On Saturday after noon the use of coal oil was the cause of an accident that may result in the loss of life to a daughter of Mr. Henry Reed er, residing about three miles below Newport. The little girl aged about 11 years, tried to hasten the fire by using coal oil, which ignited and set her cloth ing on fire. Before the fire was extin guished she was so badly burned, that the physician has little hope of her life. Mr. and Mrs. Reeder were absent at camp meeting, and were at once sent for and hastened home to find the little girl that they had left so bright and healthy, now, nearly at the point of death. An other terrible warning against the use of oil as a kindling. pugilism In Ickesburg. On Saturday a vtfry discreditable encounter took place in Ickesburg, between Rev. J. J. Hamil ton and James Irvine. An eye witness gives the following account of the affair: While Mr. Irvine was up stairs over Hench's store and Mr. Hench was gone to his supper, Mr. Hamilton came there and insisted upon Irvine coming down. It was evident from Mr. Hamilton's manner that he had lost his temper, (we hope no one, unless a very peacable man, will find it,) and was bent on hav ing trouble. Mr. Irvine declined at first to come down and then Mr. II. called him a liar, and coward, using other in sulting language, till finally Mr. I. came down and told him he wanted no fight with an old man and a preacher. Mr. H. told him to waive all that and he would clear him of the law. Continued bad language seemed to render some action necessary on Mr. Irvine's part and he consequently knocked Mr. Ham ilton down and proceeded to punish him, Mr. II. in the meantime getting In a blow with his cane. Some blood was drawn on both sides and then the by standers interfered and separated the men. The origin of the trouble we be lieve was some communications that were published in one of the county papers. Bufjflary and Robbery. On Thursday night thieves pulled down a window in John Snyder's coach shop, on Water street, and entering helped themselves to a couple of cast Bteel chisels, a gouge and a brace. Thus armed they proceeded to Jones Brother & Co.'s warehouse, a few doors further up, and prying in a door walked in there, where they made a miserable effort, and failed, to bore holes in the safe with a small reamer. On top of the safe lay a bag containing about $10 in pennies, and from the alarm till were taken about $5 In change and defaced coin of small denominations, which were no longer legal, tender, and which had been accumulating there for a long time. Closing the door by which they entered after them they departed, and hauled up at the railroad depot, ' to which admittance was gained through the transum of the gentlemen's waiting room, and from there through the ticket window Into the ticket office. The small safe In use there was thrown on the floor, with the face up, when the dumb rascals began toying on the door with the tiny reamer again. To deaden the sound the safe was lain on the agent's and Mr. A. J. Fickes' coats. The thieves got nothing there, only a gold pen and holder, belonging to Andy, valued at about $3, although a number of express packages, In the freight house, were broken open and examined. These robberies occurred between twelve and one o'clock. A noise, pre sumed to have been made by the robbers, was heard at the depot about those hours by Mrs. Annie Ickes, which fixes the time. There is no clew to the thieves, al though a man, in whoBe company was a delicate-looking woman, asking alms about town earlier in the evening is sus picioned by some. Newport News. A Shower of Cider. A scene of excite ment was produced in the brick market house, Broad street, Thursday morning, which became one of merriment before it was over, in enjoyment of which many persona participated. A farmer had brought a barrel of cider to retail, and placed it on one of the stalls, where butter, eggs and other produce were being sold. While a crowd of men, women and boys were pressing around the stall making purchases, the bung of the cidar barrel suddenly flew out with a loud explosion, sending a stream of foaming apple juice like a miniature plug stream ten feet into the air, causing the crowd to disperse In all directions, but not until all had been saturated with the falling cider. Market Master Dubbs, who was on the ground, was driven to the nearest door by the force of the con cussion, but escaped injury, while a number of hard money farmers who were near the scene never budged. Everybody laughed who had no cider on their hats, hair or clothes. Harris burg Telegraph. Struok by Lightning. A heavy rain Btorm accompanied by thunder and light ning, passed over the city from a north, western point of the compass, about 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. There were several unusually brilliant flashes of lightning nollcable, accompanied by heavy peals of thunder. The lightning struck the gable end of the south front of Myers' repair Bhop, at the lower round house, Pennsylvania railroad, the subtle fluid tearing off the sheeting near the ventilator and knocking off some of the slate on the roof. The bolt was what Is termed a "cold" flash, and did very little damage. The men employed In the shop felt the shock perceptibly, but no one was in the least Injured. The blacksmith shop hands were also some what shocked by the flash, which ap peared to have entered that department and to have spent Its force there. The lightning is reported also to have struck the conductor on the State print ing office, South Third street, and passed off in to the ground without doing any harm. llarrishurg Patriot of the 25th. Fur Thb Times. Family Reunion.

Mr. and Mrs. Billow were the recipients of a fine rocking chair each, besides other small presents, one of which was the pipe of peace, which was made of the products of the field which compoB es the staff of life. Cumberland County. We copy the fol lowing from the Cumberland papers of last week : Last Monday a copperhead snake crawled into the Shlppensburg Post Of fice. The postmaster and his assistants dispatched him before he had time to in quire for his letters. A pocket book containing a small amount of money, taken from the house of Joseph McDermoDd, in Mifflin twp., a few weeks ago, has been returned un harmed. The Newvllle Enterprine says, several young girls from Newvllle were at camp meeting on Wednesday night, so drunk that they behaved in a very disgraceful manner, and should have been " scoop ed" in. On Monday we were shown a double peach, by Mr. Charles W. Beep, living on South street, which for size takes the lead There are two large peaches grown together and they measure exactly one foot in circumference. Mr. R. Informed us that he got off the same tree last year, two nearly as large. Volunteer. Jacob Ensmlnger, of Mifflin twp., had some cattle ranging on the North mountain, and on looking after them on Saturday, found that a large and fine steer had been struck by lightning. It doubtless was struck by the storm that went down the mountain on the Tues day previous. The value was about twenty-five dollars. On Thursday afternoon, a man named William Sheafier, living near Boiling Springs, in the employ of the Reading ore banks, was instantly killed while working in a drift, by the the top falling in upon him. No blame whatever at taches to the management of the exten sive mines. The deceased was about 40 years of age and leaves a widow and eight children to mourn his untimely end. Coroner Smith and a jury held an Inquest on Friday morning, and render, ed a verdict in accordance with the above facts. On Saturday evening lasta neighbor noticed Mr. John Treiblery of East Louther street, in his yard acting in a strange manner. Mr. T. had a strap, which looked like a pair of suspenders, which he fastened around his neck and mounting a stool fastened the other end to a post about three feet above his head and swung himself off. At this instant Mr. T.'s son appeared in the yard and the neighbor, by signs called his atten tion to the scene down the yard. In a moment the son unharnessed the father after slight resistance, and in due time the lunatic was subdued, although sev eral members of the family were bruised during the struggle. No cause is assign ed for the rash attempt. Mirror. CS" " A tumor was removed from my head by using ' Dr. Lindsey's Blood Searcher.' " S. Sarver, Pittsburgh, Pa. Sold by all druggists.
