A Kentucky Trial.

A few days ago, in Breckenridge coun-
ty, rough rider entered small town,
got on a spree. and assaulted citizen of
the place. Toward evening the commu-
nifty determined on his arrest. lie was
taken before magistrate, and his case
demanding more legal knowledge than he
possessed, the prisoner was sent to mag
istrate in the country for trial The pris-
oner remarked, they had better hurry
up, as he had no time to fool around if
they didn't look sharp he'd get on his
horse and leave" Thus admonishcd the
majesty of the court was brought in re-
QUESTION and the trial proceeded. The
prisoner seemed to object to the whole
proceeding. and observing pistol in the
pocket Of coat hanging on the wall he
drew it out, and as it happened to be the
only weapon in court, held a winning
hand. He requested the magistrate and
officers to dance on the floor and conduct
themselves in highly ridiculous manner.
When he was satisfied with the perform
ance, he ordered the Squire to have his
horse brought out which he mounted,
and then made that officer of the law
show him short cut to the nearest main
road. Seeing clear way out of his diff
fculties he dismissed the Squire and gal
loped off, remarking that he had captured
the pistol in war, and he claimed it as his
own. 1t is needless to say the rough III
der disappeared from the vicinity in all
haste, and left 40 trace behind him, save
the recollection of his ludicrous impu-
dence.

NEW BLOOMFIELD, PENN'A.
Tuesday, Nag 3, 1870.

On THE 23rd ult., application was
made to the Supreme Court, at Philadel-
phia, by counsel on behalf of several
Railroad Companies for injunctions to
restrain the revenue officers from assessing
and collecting an income tax from these
corporations for 1870 The bill raises
the question whether the act authorizing
the collection Of this tax continues 1or
1870. The U. S. Dist. Atty. appeared
for the revenue officers,and after some dis
cussion, it was agreed to allow the in
junction to issue for the present After
hearing argument, temporary lnJunc-
ton was granted.

PAIN KILLER

1t is a balm for every wound. Our first physi-
clans use and recommend its use; the ApOthecary
finds it first among the medicines called for, and
the wholesale druggist considers it a leading article
in his trade, All the dealers in medicine speak
alike in its favor, and its reputation as

PAIN is supposed to be the lot of us poor mortals
as inevitably as death, and liable at any time
to come upon u.s. Therefore it is important that
remedial agents should be at hand to be used on
emergency, when we are made to feel the eXcruta-
ting agony of pan or the depressing influences Of
disease.
Such remedial agent exists in Perry Davis

over all the earth. Amid the eternal ices of tbs

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
A Floor Gives way-Killing and WOunding
Over two Hundred Persons.

A terrible calamity happened at Rich
mond, Va, on last Wednesday, caused by
the falling of the floor of the court room,
of the State Capitol, killing and wound
ing over two hundred persons. Among
those killed are many of the influential
men Of the State, so that their death is
loss to the public, as well as to the imme-
diate friends The crowd was assembled
to hear the decision on the mayoralty case
Of Ellison vs. Cahoon. The beginning of
the trouble was the falling in of the
gallery of the court room, which
was crowded. The floor followed. and all
thereon descended thirty feet to the floor
below, which was the floor of the House
Of Delegates Of Virginia, on which some
few Of the members Of caucus were
waiting around There was a general
crush of all the timbers, and the falling
of the inside wall, causing instant death
to about sixty persons, and injuring near
ly two hundred others; many Of whom it
is feared will die.
Directly after the disastaster occurred
the fire alarm was used to give notice,
and the hook and ladder companies Of
the city repaired at once to the scene. A
Gordon Of police was drawn around the
building and ladders were thrown up to
the windows. For three hours the scene
was full Of horror. Minute after minute
there appeared, swung out by a rope tied
around the middle, the body of some pop
ular favorite, who, after being swung on
to the shoulders of one of the fire bri-
gade, were brought down the ladder into
the green of the public Park, where it
was instantly surrounded by two Or three
thousand Of those who had gathered to
recognize the slain. The park was filled
with anxious weeping women and anx-
ious men until two o'clock, when the last
victim was drawn from the building.
After this the police closed the park,
refusing admittance to any one. The
bodies Of the dead having been sent out,
all the stores in the city were closed, and
placards put on all the dools, Closed in
consequence of the disaster at the Capt.
tai" No more business was done dur
ing the day.
The day following all the business houses
remained closed and hung with Grape
The streets were filled with funeral pro
cessions, and the whole city was occu.
pied in the mournful duty of burying the
dead. 1t was impossible to obtain hear
ses enough, and furniture wagons draped
in black were used to convey some Of thu
bodies to their final resting place.
From various parts of the country sums
of money are being offered in aid Of thos,
left destitute. The Governor has recon
mcnded that Wednesday, the 18th inst
be observed as a day of fasting and prayer
In 1911 the same city was visited by
calamity fully as terrible, at which time
the theater took fire, while densely crowd
ed, and before the audience could escape
about seventy persons were suffocated, o
otherwise injured in such manner as t.
cause their death. The accident of las
week vividly recalls to mind the forme
catastrophe.

In financial circles the legal tenders
decision continues to be the subject Of
much discussion. Some argue that were
the present decision to stand, every sol
dier and Government contractor, whose
relations with the Government commenced
prior to the passage Of the Legal Tender
Act, could now collect the difference be
tween gold and greenbacks. Several
hundred thousand men contracted with
Uncle Sam before that time to serve as
soldiers for him for three years. They
were paid in gre2nbacks whereas, in ac-
cordance with the chief Justices decision
they may now call upon the Treasury for
the gold difference such being the case
