that both arms were so severely frozen
that they must be amputated to save
the child's life.
The Newport and Bloomflcld Telegraph
Company will probably soon have to
make an assessment to replace poles
and generally repair the line. Many of
the poles have already had to be replaced
and fifty-four trees were used as poles,
most of which will have to be taken
down this spring. The poor manner in
which the line was erected and the fre
quent breaks have been the cause of a
constant expense for repairs. Either
such action will have to be taken, or the
line will have to be abandoned. As it
now is,the frequent repairs are an annoy
ance too great to be put up with.
Bloomdcld Schools. By order of the
Directors, examinations were held lust
week in the High and Grammar Schools
of the borough. A day was given to
each school, the morning examinations
being oral and the afternoon vrltten.
Messrs. Blank and Edgar as Committee
of Board examined High School and
Messrs. Burnett and Edgar the Gram
mar School. The examinations covered
all the topics taught in -the schools, the
limits in each text book being the
amount gone over during the winter.
Many of the pupils exhibited commend
able proficiency in both schools .and
some of the younger pupils showed
themselves deserving of much praise.
Other pupils had evidently been allowed
to waste the evening study hours of the
winter without regard to the requests of
directors and teachers as set forth in the
weekly reports. Three of the schools
close within a week and the public are
invited to the closing exercises of Mr.
Shaver's school on Friday- afternoon of
this week and Mr. Soule's on next Mon
day afternoon.

weeks and has had very little experi

J. Schoch sent to the store for a dose of
salts, and by mistake the boy gave him
a dose of potash which Mr. Schoch took.
The result was deathly sickness and a
very narrow escape from death. Sellm

Burning or a Little Cbllil.-rThe sad In
telligence of the burning of the only
child of D. Culbertsoa, of Amberson's
Valley, Franklin county, which occurred
at 6 o'clock on Sunday evening a week,
has reaohed us. The accident happened
as follows : The parents had returned
home from a neighbor's and, after mak
ing fire in the cooking stove, had pltreed
the child a son ten months old in the
cradle in front of the stove, the foot of
the cradle being some six feet away, and
then went to the barn to do the eve
ning's work. While thus engaged the
father discovered the flames of the burn
ing cradle, and bursting Open the door,
found the Infant In the flames. Dr.
Stoey, of Roxbury, was sent for, but ou
arriving found that death had relieved
the little sufferer. The cradle had evi
dently caught fire from the stove and
was partially burned. The child's left
limbs and left side were burned to a
crisp,
A Had Dog A Little Boy Bitten. Last
I Thursday a large dog belonging to Mr.
John Reed, the tenant on the Boas farm
at Fort Hunter, developed symptoms of
hydrophobia and created considerable
alarm. The dog attacked Mr. Reed's
little son, aged eight years, a bright lit
tle fellow, and bit him badly in the thigh
and hand. The parents were very much
distressed over the unfortunate affair
and chained the dog securely, but he
grew worse and snapped at everything,
foaming at the mouth and behaving in
such a manner that left no doubt of his
madness and he was ahot. It is said that
he bit a number of dogs before he was
chained, and the excitement consequent
upon this report has led to a regular dog
slaughter in that nelghbood. The little
boy was given surgical attendance as
soon as possible, and on Saturday his
father took him to Lebanon county to
see a family named Stoey, who are said
to possess a cure for hydrophobia, which
was administered to the lad in the hope
that it will act as a preventive. Thus
far he has not suffered beyond the pain
caused by the bites he received from the
beast. Harrteburg Telegraph.
Feuntl his Horse. Samuel Rlcken
bach, of Fayette township, visited his
stable on a certain mornlDg not
long since, and realized that a valuable
horse bad been stolen, but no tracks
were left to indicate the direction that
thief had gone. During several days
all efforts to get traces of the missing
horse were fruitless. On Friday, when
he was out from home still making in
quiry for the horse he met a colored fortune-teller,
or seer, of Fayette town
ship, who told him the direction that he
should take to find his horse. He told
Rlckenbach to go west to a town SI
miles distant, and there he would find
his horse. Believing that he might as
well do that as any other thing, Rlcken
bach took the cars at this place on Sat
urday morning and went to MoVey
town, Mlfllin county, which town is
about 31 miles distant from where the
horse was stolen. To his utter joyous
amazement there on a street of McVey
town was his own horse in a sled with
another horse. Of course he was not
long in telling the man who was driving
the team that the black horse belonged
to him Rlchenbach and asked how
he came into the possession of the man
with the sled. Mr. Hambrlght is the
name of the man that bad the team. He
said that he had traded another horse to
a man named Jefferson Adams and gave
" boot" in money for the bluck horse
which Rlchenbach claimed. Jeff. Ad
ams, who used to live in Walker twp.,
this county, but now lives near McVey
town, was looked up, and put under ar
rest. He said that he had' bought the
horse from a man in Little Valley, Mif
flin county, a few days before for $45 ;
that he had given $20 in money and his
note for the balance. On that statement
'Squire McClellan concluded to admit
Adams to bail in the sum of $100 for a
hearing on Wednesday, this week.
Hambright would not surrender the
horse without Rlchenbach would pro
duce proof of the ownership. The owner
of the animal came back to Juniata ou
Saturday night, and on Monday after
noon, in company with Sheriff J. R.
Kelly, who raised the horse, went back
to McVeytown to lndentify and prove
his property. The Sheriffand Mr. Rick
bach arrived at McVeytown in the eve
ning, and by the time that they had all
preliminary arrangements perfected aud
' reached Hambrlght's house, about 21
miles from McVeytown, it was dark.
The Sheriff identified the horse as the
one he sold to Rlckenbach about one
year ago. The animal was taken to Mo
Vey town and stabled. The next business
was to arrest Adams. , It was 2 o'clock
on Tuesday morning before that object
was accomplished. The arrest was made
at the home of Adams. He insisted that'
he bought the horse that he traded to
Hambrlght. He says that he bought
him from a man named Culp. He was
brought to this place at noon on Tues
day and lodged in Jail. Rlckenbach rode
his horse home on the same day. Juni

A Good Pounding.
Ms, Editor t If you will allow mt to
trouble yon again, I wonld like to say through
your columns that a few nights ago a company
of intelligent yonng ladles from In and around
Shermansdale, came to the U. B. Parsonage of
this place to do some religious pounding. With
their pounders they first pounded the preacher
until ne surrendered, (Mr. Editor yon may
decide as to whether this was religions), they
then with their ponnds proceeded to load the
table until It was full of pounds of coflee,
sugar, raisins, and so on. This visit was by
the preacher and family highly appreciated,
and will not soon be forgotten. Also Mr.
Editor, several yonng ladles, Miss Jennie
Bowman and Miss Bailie Wallace, took a good
notion to get the recipient of the pounding, a
new overcoat, and the brethren and sisters of
Syders class, of which they were members,
seconded the notion by helping them. A
grand success was the result, and the preacher
slipped Into a first rate piece of cloth. Then
on the night of the 7th, a crowd of young
ladles and gentlemen from Bethel concrrrffa-
tion came to the parsonage with baskets fullnf
