HUNTING TIE aoAr.-It is not often

HUNTING TIE GoAr.-It 10 not often
that we hear of any fun in Hancock
county. The residents Of that portion
of the moral vineyard as included in the
boundaries of West Virginia and not
given to much levity. When they do
get q chance, however, they make all
there is to be made out Of it. They
have bad a sensation at New Cumber-
land. Thus runs the story:
The Odd Fellows lodge room is stu
ated over the town hall, or SOME other
public place, and q man name 9Atkin-
con, desiring to hang q chandelier in
the lower hall, instead Of going to who
ever had charge Of the key OF the lodge
room through the floor of which he
desired to hang his chandelier, broke
open the door He is q strong anti
Mason, anti-Odd Fellow and anti
everything else that is not in accord
with his own shallow and prejudiced
ideas, SO he didn't think there was any
harm in breaking open the door of such
sink OF iniquity as he regarded the
lodge room.
There was not much to see when he
got in, nor could he find suitable
tlace through which to bore the hole
he ies ID to make. Looking round he
found second door, that OF an ante
room where the regalia and parapherua-
liza of the lodge was kept OF course
he broke that open, and there made his
arrangements for suspending the chan
delier in the room below.
The affair created great excitement
in New Cumberland, as will be readily
imagined, and Atkinson was arrested
for the ofIense. So much Tor the story.
Now for the fun.
Some wag who had strayed from
some place where jokes are practiced
and enjoyed, got out a handful reciting
the outrage, and setting forth that, be-
cause of Atkinsons leaving the doors
opened when he came out, the goat had
escaped, and offering a reward for his
recapture and return to brother of the
Order, who was named in the handful,
The reward was so large as to tempt
the cupidity of all the boysin Hancock
county, and no goat now has a particle
of comfort on her hills. No sooner
doe, a goat show his head than the
boys get after it and take it to the Odd
Fellow alluded to for Identification. So
many he-goats, she-goats, kids and
everything else of the goat order of
architecture have been offered that
Bro. begins to think that the
goat is a bore. He has told the boys
that the whole thing is fraud, but they
won't believe him, and day after day
they waltz over the hills OF Hancock
county in a never ending, untiring
search for the goat that got out Of Odd
Fellows Hall.

A TERRIBLE AccIDENT.-On Wednes-
day evening, as we are informed a
young daughter of John Brennan or
Brannon, who lives on Fulton street in
the neighborhood Of the tunnel, was
terribly burned by her clothes taking
fire. She was playing, as we under.
stand it, in front Of the fire. when a
spark flew out and set fire to her dress
which was instantly in flames. Before
they could be ex:inguished she was
shockingly burned about the head and
face, her ears being scorched almost to
a'crisp.
Since writing the abovs we have
learned that the girl died Of her injuries

"a FEAST OF REASON AND Flow OF

five thousand people to roars Of laughtel
or tears of grief at will, who, by match
less eloquence, fairly thrills the souls oil
those who hear him, has been engaged
for Wednesday evening, February 7th.
The question for each one to decide is
to be wide awake and active enough to
secure a seat, and thus an opportunity
to hear John B. Cough.

TURKEY SHooTlNa.-To-day our
sportsmen are to have q festival at
Frank Walters place, on the National
road. One hundred turkeys are TO be
shot for. and we may expect to see some
very handsome shooting done, for our
Ohio county sportsmen have not for
gotten how to use the rifle, the only
weapon of their fathers in defending
their homes or in supplying their tables
with the game that then abounded in
the woods that crowned our hills.

COMMITTED IN DEFAULT.-Ye yesterday
Justice johnson formally committed
lobe Vance to jail in default Of giving
bail in the sum Of 5000 to answer the
charge of larceny. We are glad to see
that the Justice put Tobe's bail up high
enough so that it looks respectable and
big. Had it been 81 instead Of 5000 the
result would have been the same.

SELLING BY SANPLE.-John S. Dingle,
the agent for a Philadelphia house, was
arrested yesterday and taken before
Squire Johnston charged with selling
goods by sample, contrary to the laws
of this State. 1t will be remembered
that there has been a decision rendered
by a Judge in Maryland to the effect
that all such laws as the one under
which Mr.. Dingle was arrested are
unconstitutional and void. This case
will probably be made test case, as it
is certain that it will be taken before
the United States Court. Mr.. Dingle
gave bail in the sum of 500 for his
appearance at the March term Of Court

Every year increases the popularity OF
this valuable Hair Preparation; which IN
due 10 merit alone. We can assure our old
patrons that 1t Is kept fully up TO Its high
STANDARD; and II is the only reliable and
perfected preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR TO its youthful color, max
ing II soft, lustrous, and silken. The scalp
by It's use, becomes white and clean. II re.
moves all erlptions and dandrufi, and, by
It's tonic properties, prevents the hair from
falling out, as II stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair grows
thicker and stronger. In badness, II re-
stores the capillary glands TO their norma
vigor. and will create a new growth, except
In extreme old age. 1t is the most econom-
ical HAIR DRESSING ever used, as II requires
fewer applications, and gives the hair a
splendid, glossy appearance. A. A. Hayes,
