lrisfortunes of a Runaway Match

Brown & Higgins, III Main street.
Misfortnnes Of a Runaway Match.
While couple were on their way to
that elysium where the nuptial knot is
tied without fear of the law or the sud
den intrusion of unlimited and cruel
parents, they met with an unfortunate
and unexpected occurrence. We may
as we'll say before going any further,
that the place referred to is West Alex
andria. When in the neighbOrhood of
Mrs. French's Hotel, where there is a
slight decline in the road, the vehicle
which contained this lovely pair ofcan-
didates for matrimouy, without regard
for the Importance of its mission or the
load it was carrying to the honeymoon,
tumbled them out down the embank-
ment. The lady had prepared herself
for Ieng stay; having packed all her
tom-foolery, toggery and troussea" in
handbook and newspaper, which was
tumbled together topsy-turvy, heller
SHELTER until it looked like mass of
ruins of fine night clothes and morning
gowns. AS neither of the party were
hurt, they soon gathered themselves up
and went on their way rejoicing thai
matters were not worse. The moose
was tied and the husband has since had
an explanation of the use of the tom
foolery, toggery and trOus8eau, that he
ignorantly gathered upsn tn occasion
referred to.

Market Mouse Gossip.

We kindly suggest to ladies who do
the family marketing, that the practice
some of them have of discussing "fam-
lily matters" in the crowded thorough
fares of the market house, is very bad
enc. 1t is annoying to people who are
in haste to make their purchases, and
who thus become the unintentional
possessOrs of "little matters" which the
fair gossippers unthinkingly communi-
cate to all about them.
We have heard people wonder how
in the world such and such things,
which they supposed to be the most sa-
cred family secrets, were so generally
known. The market house "oonferen-
ces" explain the matter. We give this
trusting it will be received as kindly as
intended

Lightning Rods.

Lightning Rods
The storm of yesterday demonstrated
the necessity for lightning rods, and the
inferiority of the ordinary iron
rod in the striking by light
ming of house on the Island,
which contained three of them. This is
an evidence in favor of the superiority
of Munson's copper tubular rod over all
others manufactured. His rod is tu-
bular rail with four inches surface of
copper, which is eight times greater a
conductor than that of iron. Copper does
not corrode or rust while irsn does. The
copper rod is in effect continuous, the
sections being riveted together with
copper wire instead of being connected
with nuts. The copper rod has never
been known to fail ii performing its
service where used, in consequence it
can be safely said to be the best ever
put up. 1t is sold at thirty cents pei
foot and three dollars for points, which
can be had from Swander X Co., at No.
50 Main street.

Yesterday morning as Mr.. q. w.
Franzheim was turning the corner of
Monroe street from Market, in two
horse buggy, the animals got frightened
aud jerked the buggy in such a manner
as to throw him out. Tho back of his
head struck stone, which inflicted a
severe bat not dangerous wound. git is
expected that he will be able to be
about to-day again to attend to his
business. The horses were caught at
the corner of Monroe and Fourth

Obtaining Goods Under Fnlse Pre-
fences.
A young married man about twenty
two years of age named Robert Thomp-
son, obtained pair of CATERS under
false pre:ences, from the boot and shoe
establishment of kepner x Buchanan,
in Centre Wheeling. He represented
to Mr.. kepner that he was employed at
the foundry of Mr.. John Hamilton, and
that he had just spoken to his (Kep-
ner's) partner, who had left the store a
short time previous, and he told him he
could have the CATERS, which he prom
ised to pay for the next day. Under
the circumstances Mr.. Kepner let him
have the CATERS; but it now turns out
that he neither works at the foundry
named, nor even had word of CONVEX
9"''on with Mr.. Buchanan in relation
" 'ne matter. He issaid to be an old Of
l'A1ef In this kind of business, but has
never been caught up at it. We were
informed that he is now in Martinsville.

The proposition has awakened oonsid,

Ave hundred dollars to five thousand
The students at the Canonsburg College
alone subscribed sixteen hundred dol

no doubt but what the road will short

The tar used is put through process
that frees it from oil and benzole, and
no matter how great the heat, it will
not run. 1t is equally efficient in roofs
of every conceivable pitch. Mr.. Crum-
hacker keeps on hand roofing cement

Struck by Lightning.

Struck by Lightning.
During the shower of rain yesterday
afternoon the Grant House was struck
by lightning. 1t struck the chimney
first, tearing few bricks out, and then
passed on down to the first floor, where
it stopped by knocking stove-pipe
down. On the second and third floors
it knocked the plastering from the
walls, but otherwise not much injury
was done. IL is supposed that the force
of the lightning was almost expended
before it struck the house. A lady was
playing the pi; o in the parlor at the
time. and this sudden visitation from
the elements above caused her to put
the finishing touch to the music before
the piece called for it. Anybody else
would have done the same under the
circumstances.
The new frame house of Thomas Sea-
man, on the Island, was also struck by
lightning. There were three of the or
binary iron lightning rods on this build
ing, but they seem to he of no avail in
saving the house. We understand that
there was very little damage done.
A boy employed at the paper mill in
Centre Wheeling was knocked down by
lightning. We were unable to learn
the particulars where tho boy was at
when struck, but infer, as our inform
ant said nothing about the paper mill
being affected by the lightning, that it
occurred on the outside. If such is the
case he was only stunned from the con.
cussion in the immediate vicinity.
