pan facts TO our citizens: Quite num-
Der OF Instances could be mentioned, where
parents have, within the past two or three
years, sent their children abroad to be edu-
ca.ed, at cost of about sac hundred dollars
year, whlIe their tuition at home would
nave cost them, perhaps, fifty dollars sim
ply because our Academy building was con-
sIueVed insufficient and uncomfortable.

DIsTREssING ACCIDENT-Th Franklin
Spectator of the ID inst, contains an ac-
count Of the horrible death of Mr.. William
A. Thompson, a former resident of Clearfeld
county, by the explosion of nitro glycerine
torpedo which he was taking to torpedo
factory near that city. He had two torpe-
does in the buggy, both of which had failed
10 explode when tried in wells, but which
had been exposed to the weather for sever
al weeks rendering them extremely liable
to explode. We clip portion of the arti
Gle:
The accident occurred about one mile and
half ont on the Bully Hill road. The
body of Mr. Thompson was thrown about
fifty feet from the place where the torpedo
exploded, and was lying terribly mutilated,
at the side of the road, the left arm above
the elbow discovered from the body, and
missing. The horse and the fore wheels of
the buggy were found about fifty yard.
away-which distance the horse had run
before he fell. The scene around showed
the terrible power of nitro glycerine. The
aiterpart of the buggy was reduced to chips,
and large portion of the axle not found.
One OF the tire was hanging in tree, some
20 feet high, and one of the unfortunate
victim boots was hanging in another. The
main charge of the torpedo hal entered the
left side just above the hip, and death
must have come like fash and without
physical suffering. The head and face we're
not much distigured, showing slight abra-
sions, caused doubtless by the fall of the
body on the ground.

WHEN AN OFFICER CAN MAKE AN Ar

WHEN An OFFICER CAN MAKE AN Ar
REsT.-A party tried at the recent court in
Montgomery county, for assaulting an Off
Ger made the point in his defence that the
officer had no warrant for his arrest, where
upon the Court defined the rights and du-
ties of police officers as follows:
An officer, as any private citizen, has the
right and it is his duty to prevent crime
without warrant and where breach Of
the peace is imminent he ought to interfere
and arrest the offenders; and when he sees
an assault committed he ought to make an
arrest and follow in pursuit, with or with
out a warrant. Whenever the officer has
the offender within his view at the time Of
committing the offence he has the right to
make the arrest with or without warrant.
He has the power when the offence is COM
United in his view, but when he acts on the
information of others he must have proper
authority. In this case the officer saw the
aifray or fight, which was stopped by his
approach He had the right to arrest the
offenders.

ducks, etc, as well. From all that appears
to be known Of it, the liver seems to be affect

from twenty-four to forty-eight hours, a
remedy has been found for it, which must of
course be administered in time. 1t is ''blue

few escaped some loss, except those who
provided for their fowls dry, cleanly houses,
pure water, gravel, little lime, old mortar

Those who thus provide for their feathered
