Murder of the Perghtel Family.

The murder of husband, wife and
son near Huntington, Penn, on Wednes-
day night by twoGermans named Bolin-
berg and Bohrer, was one of the most
cold blooded atrocities in the annals Of
crime. From the half eaten supper
which was found on the table, it would
appear that the happy family were en-
joying their evening meal, after hard
days work on the farm, when the two
villains simultaneously shot the father,
John Perghtel, and his son Gardiner
through the head. The former wps a
man of about 40, and the latter bright
intelligent lad Of twelve years. Mrs.
Perghtel's head was split open with an
axe.
After completing their slaughter the
fends proceeded to ransack the house
from top to bottom, securing oil the mon
ey on hand, amounting to several thou
sand dollars in gold and greenbacks.
Securing all the booty they could be-
sides the money, they placed the bodies
side by side, covered them with old
clothes and bedding, and hoping to des-
troy all traces ef their devilish work, set
fire to the pile and fed from the house.
The fire burned but slowly, however, and
smoaldered on Cor nearly an hour, until
some persons passing by were attracted
to the scene by the smoke.
Suspicion at once rested upon the two
Germans, and inquiry at the depot re-
vealed the fact that they had taken the
night train for the West. Telegraphic
dispatches were sent ahead of them, and
when the train arrived at Altoona the
suspected murderers were arrested and
taken back. On their persons were found
about $3.50 of the stolen money, the re-
mainder of which had probably been
hidden.
Hundreds of people from far and near
were assembled at the depot on arrival
of the train bearing the murderers, and
it was with great difficulty that the town
authorities prevented the people from
lynching them. Bohrer was convicted
of larceny about three years ago and
served his term in the Penitentiary.
Bodenburg has partially confessed the
crime. There is not the slightest doubt
of their guilt.

ENTERTAINING GUEST
men are said to be fond of marrying un-
intellectual wives. Madame de Talley-
rand was no exceptian to the rule. She
was very pretty, but by no means clever.
