which took place in the same hall two
or three years ago, and which is still
believed by some credulous people, was
30 effectually tied by VIM E. Mason Of
this.cit that the spirits could not unite
him. After the lapse Of nearly an
hour or more the so-called spirits gave
it up las the tie beyond their ken"
and the spirits, at the earnest request
of the medium, finally consented to let
Mr.. Mason enter the cabinet and release
the medium, which he did to the great
relief of the youth. who was suffering
from exhaustion in narrow cabinet,
trying to get the spirits to release him,
and Of his friends who were very anx-
ious about the ordeal. 1t is proper to
say that the young man released him
self twice on the same evening before
his final failure, but Mr.. Mason, who
had set himself to the work of making
the exposure, permitted him to use his
own ties. On the third attempt an ad-
ditional rope was added by Mr.. Mason.

The Cash System.

Mr.. Editor-Having read the two COM
muncations lately published in the Times,
from your correspondent "Cash," in rela-
tion to "Loan Association and observ-
ing that he is willing to receive suggestions
entirely new, or modification of the
plan prepared in his articles, have conclu-
ded to give my opinion regarding this en-
terprise. If "Cash" is in favor of the
cash system, as his signature indicates, I
would ask what does he want with loan
association. am in for the cash system,
and think if it was rightly carried out there
would be very little use for an association
of this kind. | believe there is too much
loaning done already. DR.. Franklin has
said that "The second vice was lying
and first was running in debt. This wise
man has also told us that it was better to
go to bed without supper than to rise in
debt The real necessities of the body
are very few ;neither farmers, mechanics,
nor any person need run in debt. Every
person might make it rule to pay cash as
they go, for all they must have in this life.
Every person should first earn enough by
working for others to fit them for an indie
pendent business. If the association con-
templated by "Cash'' should be started,
and is not carried on by good, honest men,
it will only degenerate into Shaving
shop" CASH Down.

Was IL Suicide !-On Monday night the
Sth inst, DR.. A. F. Stayman, of Carlisle, stop
ped over night at the Ward House, Tyrone
and went to Cearfeld on Tuesday, where
he had relatives He returned to the Ward
House on Friday night, stating that he was
sick had baggage checked to Newport, Pa,
and on retiring at 8 p. M, requested to be
called in time for the a. m. train next day.
At about 90 minutes of 8, the porter called
him, but receiving no response to the call,
reported the same, and Stayman was found
dead in bed, his body still warm. On ex-
animation it was found opium and chloro-
form had been used. The coroner's inquest
was to tho effect that his death was acci-
dental, he having, it is believed, taken
choroform to alleviate pain. His brother,
Professor in Dickinson College, was tele-
graphed for, and arrived here on Saturday,
he having the body sent to Baltimore for
interment. The deceased was addicted to
opium eating, but there was no evidence
adduced to justify the belief that suicide
was intended. Tyrone Herald.

SOmnambulism.-On Thursday night
last, about o'clock, Mr.. Benjamin Stout
foreman of the Pine Grove Iron Works,
walked out of window on the second
story of the "Union House, in this place
Louis Zitzer, proprietor. The following
are the facts cf the case as related to us :
Mr.. 5. had been dreaming Of walking in a
flower garden, and while so doing, got up
in his sleep, removed number of flower
pots that were standing on the window,
and walked or rather fell out falling dis
tance of at least 20 feet, landing at the bot
tom of fight of stairs leading into the
basement, and damaging the balustrade in
his descent.
Upon striking the pavement he was thor
oughly aroused, and cried for help, when
Mr. Zitzer went to his assistance and after
considerable difficulty, (Mr. Stout being
man Of large proportions, weighing fully
200 pounds,) succeeded in carrying him to
his room powerless, and very nervous from
the effects of the fall. Mr.. Zitzer furnish
ed him with stimulants, which served to
ease his sufferings so that he fell asleep
and rested well until about o'clock a. M

Hanging PiCtures.-It would be well to
examine the cord by which pictures are
hung, especially if the pictures are large
and the frames heavy, as several instances
have come to our knowledge where pic
lures have fallen after they have been hang
ing long time. The large cords by which
they hung, although much stronger than
required, have pulled apart or suddenly
given away, and the paintings were serious
ly injured and the frames broken. The
cords may have rotted or moths eaten them
until they were too weak to sustain the
weight they had to support. A good man
ner of hanging pictures is with wire con-
cealed under the cord, or hanging the pict-
ures with wires on nails behind the pict-
mes. We suggest that such precaution
as this may prevent serious injury to valu-
able works Of art. r..

A Serious Charge.-The Carlisle VoIun-
teer says that man named John Keihl,
who resided near Shippensburg has been
arrested and held on the charge of causing
his wifes death by poison. She was taken
i'll on the Goth of April and died on the 18th
inst. After the burial suspicious were SO
strong against the accused, that the body
was raised and a coroners jury was sum-
moned a post mOrtem examination of the re-
mains was had, The result was that it was
thought best to hold Keihl until the. stom-
ach had been submitted to chemical test.

CHRONIC lNFLAMATIoN OF THE MIDDLE EAR
SUCCESSFULLY TREATED by ID. IL. SWEENEY,
NJ. D., OF New BLOOMFIELD, PA.-The Rev.
j. W. Bowen, of the Freeyile Baptist Church,
now of Scottsyille, Wyoming county, Pa, had
been suffering with chronic inflammation OF the
middle ear for five years. In the treatment of
his case, we used the eustachian catheter. By
its aid we were enabled to act directly on the
inner surface of the eustachan tube, breaking
up adhesion between the walls Of the cavity,
making mechanical pressure upon the mem
brana tympani, counteracting risidlty we ap-
piled medicine directly to the mucous mem
branes to remove accumulation obstructing the
passages, and to allay irritation. We had no
fears introducing medicines over the nasal and
phariugial passages to the immediate seat of
the disease we could conceive of no injury
that could follow this mode Of treatment, we
are aware that it is different from the usual
mode. At all events, this, with constitutional
treatment had the desired effect. We refer to
the Reverend gentleman for the truth of the
statement. 1t%
