Duncannon Robberies. On Thursday
night, March 10th, thieves broke into
the clothing store of Mr. Henry Ilirsch
in this place. They had taken tools
from the wagon maker shop of Enoch
Baker, with which they took out a pan
el of the back door of the store, and ef
fected an entrance in that way. The
tools were found on the floor the next
morning. They then lit a lamp which
was burning in the morning and put a
piece of muslin up at the window that
the light could not be seen on the street.
They then ransacked the whole store,
strewing the floor with clothing that
their footsteps might not be heard.
They took a large quantity of goods, the
best clothing in the store, all the jewel
ry, revolvers, a large number of shirts,
handkerchiefs and many other articles,
the money drawer was also opened and
$3.50 in change taken. They took two
large carpet sacks' and five shawl straps
in which they packed the goods.
On last Saturday night between 10 and
12 o'clock thieves entered the residence
of Mr. John Harper above town by cut
ting two large window glass and hoist
ing the window. They plundered
around awhile and gathered up the fol
lowing articles ; an umbrella, i doz.
cigars and a pocket-book containing 80
cents the property of Miss Mattie. A
set of solid silver spoon 8 and a number
of other small articles of value was un
molested. Mr. Harper is in the habit of
prowling around the house at night and
discovered what had been done about
2 o'clock in the morning, and he says
if they had been there they would have
met with a cool reception as he has the
implements of war around. He thinks
the parties belong to Duncannon, and
from the tracks in the snow there were
three of them.
On the same night the residence of
Rev. Heilman was entered by breaking
open a window shutter but nothing was
disturbed except some canned fruit.

A Road Sluks. On Friday last, while
Abner Miller, residing on the Malavery
farm, Franklin county, was driving
along the M'Dowell publie road leading
to Shady Grove, and was enjoying the
sight of a field of fine growing wheat
opposite, a loud cracking noise was
heard, which frightened his horse so
much that it was with difficulty that he
was restrained from running off. On
investigation Mr. Miller discovered the
report to have been caused by the sink
ing of the roadbed alongside his wagon.
Capt. Samuel Lesher and several others
measured the hole and it was found to
be ten feet in diameter one way and
twenty the other. A pole twenty-one
feet long was run into the hole and no
bottom, found. It is now filled with
water within three inches of the surface.
i 6uiclde.-Jacob Fry, an aged citizen of
Horse Valley, in Letterkenny township,
(Franklin county, committed suicide
bout noou on Friday last, by shooting
himself.
I A correspondent furnishes us with the

A post mortem examination was made
by Dr. James W. Gelwlx. The jury

Lutheran Conference The Juniata
Conference of the Central Pennsylvania
Synod of the Lutheran Church conven
ed in this borough, last week, passed the
following resolutions relating to specula
tive insurance :
Whereas, Believing that speculative
Life Insurance as now existing, and so
rapidly spreading over our Common
wealth, is a monstrous evil, demoraliz
ing in its tendency, dishonest in its
purposes, and disastrous in its effects,
we hereby
Resolve, That as the watchmen to
whom the master has given the over
sight of his flock, we recognize the duty
to defend and protect the moral and
spiritual interests of the same.
We hereby sound the note of alarm
and most earnestly advise our people to
give heed to this specious but daugerous
evil, and not be entangled therein.

lowing from the Cumberland papers

ville, for some time begging and steal
ing. They have been a great annoyance

fortunate enough to be near their camps.
Having their campB near the publlo
road has caused several accidents from
runaway horses.
Mr. William Zlgler, of Frankfort twp.,
during the late snow storm started for
the mill, but before he got home the
roads were drifted so badly that he could
scarcely get home. But by the timely
arrival of some of his'nelghbors he was
saved from freezing after having his
wagon broken to pieces and his horse
sticking in a snow drift.
