f Annllirr Smlilen Dentil. This column. l
nlty was greatly shocked on Sunday
morning to hear of the death of A. M.
Markel, Esq., who the previous evening
had been in excellent health. For some
time be has been troubled by inability
to sleep at night, and has been taking
medicine to aid nature. Saturday he had
obtained from Dr. Hunt a preparation of
which be was only to take ten drops.
About one o'clock, he and Mr. Wilson
Smee sat by the stove, when Mr. Markel
took out his vial of medicine, and, plac
ing it to his lip, drank a portion of its
contents. He then said to Mr. Smee,
(who is troubled ?llb. asthma and can
not sleep some nights,) " perhaps if you
would take some of this it would help
you to go to sleep." As he said this, he
raised up in his chair but bad only got
part way up when be fell back and roll
ed heavily to the floor. Mr. Smee went
to bis aid, but to his inquiries as to what
was wrong, no reply was made and Mr.
Markel never spoke again. Physicians
were with him in a few minutes, but all
efforts to restore him were of no avail
and shortly before six o'clock be died.
Mr. Markel was a young man generally
liked, and one who made many warm
friends. During the fall campaign when
he was candidate for Senator from this
district, he showed by bis speeches that
he had the ability to have done credit to
his constituents had he been called to
till the position. His sudden death will
be a great shock to his friends, who,
knowing bis worth as a man will the
more deeply sympathize with the rela
tives in this sad afllictlon. The deceased
was 28 years of age. His death took
place at Ensminger's Hotel, where he
boarded, but bis remains were taken to,
the residence of his mother at Markel-
ville, from where the funeral will take
place on Tuesday.
A Woman Killed. Yesterday after
noon, while the Chicago day express,
due here at 8:35 p. ni., was passing Mid
dletown, on its was east, and while
crossing the canal bridge at Portsmouth
the engine struck an aged lady named
Mrs. Holstein, throwing ber off the
bridge on the ice and snow in the canal,
killing her instantly. Mrs. Holstein re
sided with her married daughter, Mrs.
Warrick (or Warnick), and was In the
habit of crossing the bridge to take a
short cut home. She had been to the
butcher's to get a piece of meat and was
caught on the bridge with the result
above stated. She had been frequently
warned not to cross the railroad bridge.
The scene which followed when her
daughter sat by the dead body of her
mother on the Ice is described as having
been heartrending. An inquest was
held over the body, the jury rendering a
verdict la accordance with the facts.

relief was obtained and on Wednesday
morning Mr. Bweeger died. No other
cause for his death is known than the

very peculiar one. The deceased was a
very worthy young man, aged about
21 years. y
Luniata County. We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week :
Several days ago a tramp Irishman in
jail, struck for higher board. He in
formed Deputy Sheriff Wilson that he
bad plenty of victuals, such at potatoes,
meat, bread and molasses, but he felt as
if he ought to have something different
in the way of diet. The Sheriff was
called to quiet the man.

Some of the citizens of Susquehanna
township were very unfortunate the last
few weeks. John Phillips -lost a mule
valued at $150. The animal in some
way got rast with his legs, and in trying
to free himself, ruptured his maw, caus
ing almost instantaneous death. H. K.
rymoyer's old Jim der Ka len der
mocner died or horse disease, and a very
valuable animal owned by Levi Btroup,
died of an unknown cause.
Some nights ago, as ex-Sheriff Walls
was coming down the railroad on a mid.
night train, he noticed that a couple of
young meu partooK or drink rreely.
One of the party got on the train at a
station in Huntingdon county. Before
the train arrived at this station the
Huntingdon couuty man charged his
new found friend with having nicked
his pocket of $50. The stronger charged
with the theft was searched at this plane
by Walls and W. D. Cramer. The
money was found on his person. Some
of it was hidden In his boots. Mr. Cra
mer took the thief to Harrisburg, where
be was committed to jail In default of
bail.
On Wednesday of last week, Mr.
Thompson Kepner, of Turbett township
had his lower jaw broken in two places
by being struck on the right side of the
face with an iron lever, while engaged
at work In the woods hoisting logs. The
stroke of the lever rendered him insen
sible for a short time, but on being re
stored to consciousness, he walked home
and had Dr. G. M. Graham summoned,
who set the broken jaw, and Mr. K. has
so far recovered as to be able to talk
again.
Cumberland County. We copy the fol
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week :
The County Commissioners on last
Friday, appointed ouryouug townsman,
Mr. Augustus ltlchey, as Mercantile
Appraiser.
The family of William Houser, in
Newville, had a narrow escape from

Reported bv John C Wattlt, Esq.
Court Proceedings. At a Court of
Common Pleas, Court of Quarter Ses
sions, and a Court of Oyer and Terminer
and General Jail Delivery began and
held in Bloomfleld for the County of
Terry on the 3d day of January, A. D.
1831, being the first Monday in January,
before the Hon. B. F. Junkin, President,
and Samuel Noss and William Grier,
Esqrs., Associate Judges, the following
proceedings were bad, viz :
The Sheriff made return of the Venire Faielat.
The Constables made their returns.
The Grand Jury were swori,.
The Commission of J. W. Beers, Esq., at
high SuerlfTof Ferry County, was read in open
Court.
SURETY OP THE PEACS CASES.
The Com. vs. Samuel L. Bomgarduer.
Charge of Threats. In this case the defendant
was accused of having threatened Mr. Daniel
Power, the prosecutor, in body and estate, and
on the trial it was proven that he said on one
occasion that he "would break the prosecutor
up," and on another occasion that be "could
poison the prosecutor with a drop of blood,"
etc. The parties hailed from the classic shades
of Flshlug Creek and were mutually at logger
beads with each other. The Court ordered the
defendant to pay the costs of prosecution.
Beibert and Diet. Att'y Wallls for Com. Har

Com. vs. John L. Belgh. Charge of deser
tion of wife and child. Mrs. Elizabeth A.
Belgh, prosecutor. This was a proceeding
under the Act of 1867 by the wife against her
husband for support and maintenance. Mr.
Belgh, who is a boatman living at Liverpool,
sometime last spring married the young woman
who prosecuted him in this case, and took her
to his father's bouse to live, where she alleged
she was 111 treated so that she was unable to
stay there, und, consequently, went home to
her mother, and has been living there since
August last with her little child. She testified
that her husband bad given ber only a couple
dollars and a dresB and a yard or so of muslin
during the whole period of their marriage, and
that these gifts were somewhat insufficient to
support a woman and child for eight months,
and that she ought to have a more liberal
allowance than that to live noon. It appeared
also that Mr. Belgh had told witnesses that he
wouldn't do anything for his wife, and that he
didn't Intend to support her. There was also
some testimony showing that be earns a fair
sum of money every year by boating, getting
f 14 a month 8 months out of the year. The
Court, after hearing the evidence, sentenced
the defendant to pay to his wife 950 a year In
semi annual installments, and costs of prose
cution, and to stand committed till sentence is
compiled witn. Tne cieienuani went to Jan:
Dlst. Att'y Wallis for Com. M'Alliater for deft.
Com. vs. Frank J. Smedley. Charge of de
sertion of wife. Mrs. Mary E. 8medley prose
cutor. This was an action similar to the last.
The parties were married in 1X85 and lived in
Marysville for several years and also In or near
Newport, but their married life was nnhappy
and they separated by consent in 1874 and the
husband went west after providing for the
support of the wife by securing her the sum of
four dollars a week nntil they should again
re-unite. Mr. Bmedley while in the west pro
cured a divorce In Utah, one of those double
action, duplex, patent divorces furnished by
Utah Courts on demand, and sent to any part
of the world, aud to the State of Mew Jersey,
on receipt of the price, and returned to this
State a couple years ago and took up his resi
dence in Union County where be went into
business and married another woman. He
was arrested by his first wife for desertion last
summer and the case was ready for trial at
the October Term 1880. Before the term of
Court at which he was to be tried arrived he
made an Oder of settlement to his wife which
she agreed to accept and the case was contin
ued lu order to draw the papers of settlement
and have them executed by the parties. But
it seems that Mrs. Bmedley had a spasm of
indignation and disgust, and, after rellection,
refused to consummate her agreement to settle,
and insisted on getting satisfaction through a
public trial of the case, and accordingly the
case was tried at this term of Court. The
proof disclosed a most distressing state of
aQalrs between the parties. After hearing the
evidence the Court refused to order the de
fendant to pay anything for the support of the
prosecutrix aud directed the wife and the
husband to pay their own costs. The Court
advised the woman very properly that If she
wished her husband to live with her and
maintain and support her she must act like a
tpoman and behave herself so that a man can
live with her and not like a creature that
would be devil the life out of a saint. The
defendant Just before the trial bad offered the
woman (ft) a mouth as long as she lived, which
she refused and demanded the satisfaction of a
trial In Court. It Is to bs hoped that the
"satisfaction" she received Is more satisfactory
to ber now than the money would have been.

CRIMINAL TRIAL LIST.
' Com. vs. Jos. M. Harmon. Charged of For
nication and Bastardy, on the oath of Elite
Uallagber. The parties were from Duncannon.
The defenso In this case was that the young
lady was probably mistaken In th man, and
an effort was made to show that one Mr.
llcyers was preenmably the one who was the
rather of the child, nut, unfortunately for the
defense, the Jnry took the contrary view of the
case and brought in a verdict of guilty against
tbedefendunt. who was sentenced In accord
with the usual custom In such cases and was
committed to Jail. Barnett and Dlst. Att'y
Wallls for Com. Bponslor aud Bponsler for

Coin. vs. 8. P. Kern. This was a case against
Mr. Kern on the clmrgeof refusing a transcript
while being a Justice of the Peace In the bor
ough of Blaln, on oath of F. C. Potter, the
defendant In a suit before the said justice. It
appears that Mr. Potter was sued by the firm
of Manger Co.. before Mr. 8. P. Kern, the
Justice of the Peace, who gave Judgment
against Mr. Potter and In favor of Manger A
Co. for $28 and costs of snlt, In the month of
November last and a couple days after the
entry of the Judgment Mr. Potter appeared and
demanded a transcript of the Justice's pro
ceedings in the case and tendered the Justice
the legal fee of 40 cents therefor, bat the Jus
tice refused to deliver him a transcript unlem
he paid all the eotti tn the cam, which Mr. Potter
declined to do, and at once indicted Mr. Kern
for a misdemeanor in office nnder the act of
Assembly making a refusal to do'.lver a tran
script on demand an indictable offense. On
hearing the evidence the Court Instructed the
Jury that the Justice bad been guilty of a
violation of the law and ought to have deliver
ed the transcript, becanse it was not asked for
the purpose of appeal or certiorari but simply
for the inspection of Mr. Potter the defendant
in the case before the Justice, and in such a
case the legal fee for a transcript is only 40
cents. But In consideration of the fact that
there has been soma difference of opinion
among lawyers as the correct construction of
the law In the premises, and because it did not
appear that the Justice Intentionally and
corruptly violated the law the Jury were told
they ought to acquit the defendant which the
Jury thereupon did without leaving the box.
Potter and Dlst. Att'y Wallls for Com. Bar
nett for dell.
The following is tuj opinion of the Court:
Per Chuuiuk
JUNKIN, P. J.
The delendant Is a Justice of the peace, and on
hearing, rendered a Judgment on Will Nov., 1880,
analnst the prosecutor, Orlando PotUir for 128.
Potter bolng defendant In said Judgment, some
time after, demanded a transcript of the record
from the Justice, and tendered him forty cents,
the amount fixed as the Justice's fee for an ordi
nary transcript. The iuHtlce refused the Iran-'
script unless the prosecutor would pay all (he
costs, under the act of the 2d March ist8 (P.
L.
page 275.)
ii
he nuestlnn Is. h:iil th InstlcA a rlErhr. under
the said act to demand payment ef all costs be
fore delivering; a transcript of his record. We are
of the opinion, that the act of 18 8, only applies
to appellants, and plalniilfs desiring a transcript
for the purposes of entering up the Judgment as a
leln In ihe Court oi Common Pleas. The lan
guage of the act Is, the Justice "shall be entitled
to demand and receive from the appellant, and
from the plaintiff desiring a transcript lor enter
ing In the common pleas or other transcripts In
any case tried before him. Before giving a tran
script of appeal, or other transcript, all costs that
may have accrued In the said action." The obscu
rity arises front the expression ,-or other tran
scripts," but It is evident these words are used to
designate transcripts of appeal and for lien, as
there csuld be no Intention to compel payment of
costs by any but a party to the action, aud then
when the party was about to appeal, or secures
lien In the common pleas. If the winning side
were to demand a transcript the Justice lias the
right to conclude that It. is wanted for the pur
poses of lien, and he may demand all the cost.
If the losing parly appeals he can only do so
before the magistrate, and the latter can demand
all the costs. But when the losing party de
mands a transcript only, It can be for neither Hen
nor appeal and then only forty cents can be
demanded. Ka If a stranger to the action de
mands a trs.uscrlpt only forty cents need be paid.
