8 THE TIMES, NEW BLOOM FIELD, PA., AUGUST 2, 1881. Crazy Visitor! at the White House. "In General Grant's time," said Mr. Dunn, " we were prently bothered by Abraham Jolla, a ornzy Dutchman, who used to present himself when the gate opened in tbe morning nnd upend the rent of the dny in trying to get aouena to tbe President. He wag tbe niONt pernltitcut and jiorseverluj? ninn I ever niiw. In bis second term, i biff wicked-looking negro be wns over 0 foot mid built in proportion ' came to mo and ankcd me tolotblm see tbe resident, lie win an evil-disposed looking villinn, nud bad a trick or only showing you the whites of his eyes. I sus pected be wns not all right and questioned him pretty closely. While I wns talking to hi in I noticed that bo kept bis right hand iu his left brenst-pocket, and I wns afrnid be hnd a revolver there. I mnde an excuse nnd got nwny so as to call OJllcer Kearney, to whom I imparted my simpl. clous. The oflicer, under the pie'ext that he would lead him to the President, enticed him from the house and caged him in tbe police station. Search showed that his left breast- pocket contained a loaded revolver of large size. I don't remember his nnme or what was done with him." "Cnu you remember any other crazy man. ''Xotby name. Well, yes) have you ever iieard of John Biggins ? No? Well, he was a big Irishman about 0 foot four, and as strong ns a yoke of oxen. He was a rough-looking chap, too and had a baud like a leg of mutton. He was as crazy ns a loon, but only on one point, and that he never showed until the occasion arrived. He wns one of President Ornut's visitors. One day he called, looking as sober as a judgo and as quiet ns a lamb, and asked to see the President. His name was sent up staiiyj, and nfter waiting awhile be was shown into the President's reception room. " What can I do for you, Mr. Biggins?" asked the President. " President Grant," said Biggins, his craziuess breaking out for the first time, " I w i.-h you to understand that I duu't want jou peeping through tlio keyhole- of my bedroom door any more. If you do it again I'll shoot you dead, ns sure ns my natr.0 is Biggins." "So would I if I were you," replied President Grant, not a muscle of his face moving ; " I can assure you it will not oc cur again." " The coolness of the President proba bly saved his life, for Biggins was armed and desperate. He is now iu the insane asylum." A Wonderful Filly. The greatest aohievemanc of the celebra ted breeding stalliou Middletown. now at the Speedwell stock farm, Leb.uiou county, and one that h;3 placad biiu iu the very front rauk of trottiug sires, is the produc tion of that wonderful Ally " Purity" that Ins shown on a h;ilf mile track with sharp turns and a heavy gra iu 2:3 and repeated iu 2:"o, which is fully equal to 2:19 on a good mile track, a truly remarkable per formance and una tba. h.H rarely been equaled by a five-year old. Purity is a dark bay with black points full fifteen hands, but appjars much larger, is a high ly formed substantial and muscular look ing mare, that plainly shows the blood of her AbdallaU dam, has an unusually line disposition, showing no excitemont what ever when in company ou the track, und has a long steady stride that carries her to the end of the mile without skip or break with the greatest possible ease. Iu fact ehe possesses all the desired qualities necessary for the reliable track horse, and should she fill into skillful hands will have a most brilliant future - -. - Badly Mixed. A fcad cate of "mixing up" is the topic cn the West Side Just now, which brings Little I'uttcicup's confession to mind, without the onus of intentional cheating rcconipanj ing it. The son of a West Side justice is possessed of a very pretty daugh ter, 2i years ell. A friend of his has also a daugter of the samo age, and the like-' ness existing between the two is so marked as to occasion comment among their no quaiutance.es. About a week ago the two families went to a moonlight plcuio tn Douglas Phi lc nnd at its close the usual maternal rich mudi for roaming little ones ensued, after which tho fiieuds parted. Anivod t home tlie.wife of thegontlorann referred t i discovered that sho had taken her friend's child for her own, and uo time was lost in seeking to make the exchange. To her astonishment, bowover, the other mother claimed that she was iu possession of her own child, aud that she was con vinced that the lady must be mistaken. Tbe latter, however, is equally convinced that she bns got the wroi g baby ; and so tbe matter ics's. A Wife Deserts Her Infirm Husband. Jeiibey City, N. J., July 25. Ann Devere, who resides in Johnston, Penu'a., whore it is said she bns three sons in ic dependent circumstances, brought her bus band, an o!d, Infirm roan here yester and left bim on the street and started bnck forPenusylvnnln,when she wns arrest ed by dipt.

A Mnlnewliirlwlnd. Portland, Mo. July 'SI. A whirlwind passed through Cumberland 'Centre' nnd Yarmouth Furesldo last night, mowing a path a quarter of a mile wide through fields, fences aud orchards, destroying crops and snapping off trees six Inches iu diameter, Mo buildings were in the track, but many bouses bad glass shattered by the heavy bail which accompanied it. About fifty farmers lost their crops, value I at from $,'00 to 1(I0 ench. tW John S'lepparil, an infidel of Orion, Neb., built a platform alongside a Meth odist camp meeting ground, and made dai ly speeches atrniiiHt the doctrines preached by the Methodist ministers. He wns a great annoyance to the (Jhi isllana, and they tried bard to convert him, but all in vaiu. One dity an Impulsive clergyman prayed that, if Sheppard could be silenced iu no other wny, he might be removed by death. That evening the Infidel died very suddenly, and it would be dillianlt to con vince tin) people thereabout that lie was not killed in direct answer to prayer. tafThe Johnstown Tribune of Tuesday says: Mr. Job Wetnzjll, who resides cn a farm iu the vicinity of Mineral Point, was driving across tlio track of tho Penn sylvania railroad at that station this even ing when tli e way passenger train, westward-bound, came along. The etigiuo struck the vehicle and the gentleman nam ed was thrown one, sustaining injuries which will probably prove fatal. Hi son, who is nged some 12 jears, was dragged with the wngou over forty feet, when he was tossed out, without soiiotn injury. The barnoss broke, and tho Iioi sim escaped u nin jured. t5T" A gentleman traveling iu Scotland on Sunday came across a curious instance of Scotch piety.

Certainly a strong opinion, said one of our reporters to whom the following was detailed bv Mr. Henry Kasnhop, with Mr. Geo. E. Miller, 418 Main St., this city; I suffered so badly wi'li rheumatism iu my log last winter, that I was unable to attend to my work, being completely helpless. I heard of St. Jacobs Oil and bought a bot tle, nfter using which 1 felt greatly relieved. With the use of the second bottle 1 was completely cured. Iu my estimation there is nothing on earth so good for rheuma tism as St. Jacobs Oil. It. nets like a charm. Worcester (Sfumi.) S'jj. SPE CTACLE AND HYK i J, ASSESS!
