THE Jenkins correspondent from this place,
who splurges in the Miltonidn, and not unfrc-
queuty puts his foot into hot water, has seen fit
to make some ill-natured comments In regard to
ourselves, In connection with the Court House
Clock Had this immaculate censor, and would
be critic, taken the trouble to get correct infor-
nation, which he seldom does, hc would have
learned that H. B. Masser's name was not in =
scrted at his own request, but at the instance of
Major Dcwart, Chairman of the Committee, and
against the expressed wishes of said II. b. Mas
Whether his efforts for the last six years in
this matter will be properly appreciated or not
by the community, gives him as little concern as
would the good or bad opinion of the learnedcor-
respondent of the Mltonian, whose love of justice
and fair dealing, and whose generous impulses
are so well known and appreciated in this COM
munity.

DRowNED.-The heavy rains during last week,
caused the water TO overflow the low lands along
Chillisquaque creek. At the bridge about two
miles below Lewisburg Junction, the public road
was completely inundated for several days. On
Saturday evening last Mr.. B. r. Heiiner, and
Mr.. Houghton Of Northumberland, on their way
home, with horse and wagon, concluded to ford
the inundation above mentioned, and drove into
the water, as they supposed, over the road. They
went but a short distance when the embankment
gave way, and the horse, wagon and Its occu-
pants were upset into the stream. In upsettmg
Mr.. Heflner got under the wagon, and he and the
horse were drowned before assistance could be
rendered. Mr.. Houghton escaped by holding on
to some brush to which he was carried by the
current. Mr.. Heffner's body was not found un-
til Monday last, when II was discovered some
distance from the scene of the occurrence among
some logs and rubbish. When found both his
boots were off and his watch gone. Mr.. Heffner
was n son of Benz. Heffner of Lower Augusta
township. He moved to Northumberland about
two years ago, where he followed the occupation
of butchering. He leaves wife and large circle
of friends and relatives to mourn his death.

De Castro.

Odd Fellows Hall again was filled last
evening, the occasion being the second per
formance of De Castros legerdemanic en-
tertainment. The performance throughout
was excellent and the professor was fire.
quently compelled to perform his wonderful
feats over again.
Never has Odd Fellows Hall been so
filed with such an enthusiastic crowd.
Shouts of laughter interrupted the magi-
clan during the performance. The AERIAL
suspension feat so astonished the audience
that it was difficult to make them believe
that the body was not dead and when they
did discover the fact shout after shout
rended the air.
This evening Professor De Castro will
perform that feat which has attracted the
attention of philosophers and scientists
the decapitatiOn feat. His head is cut Oft
and placed three feet from his body. 1t
speaks, eats, talks and performs such feats
that all the world is astonished. The Pro
lessor has received more applause for this
particular feat than any other magician in
the country. This evening he gives twenty
dollars and watch as the principal prizes,
and hundred other gifts.

The Common Street Tragedy.

At the bottom of many of the tragedies
of blood in New Orleans there is woman.
We learn from private sources that the
quarrel alluded to by the citizen who killed
johnson in self defense on Common street
Tuesday evening as occurring six years ago
was about woman.
johnson had attempted to conduct an in
discreet Irritation with married lady,
which led to a severe rebuke and very
angry words toward him-words which
seem to have been ranking in his heart
ever since, and the first occasion was taken
to avenge what he (Johnson) considered,
under the circumstances. grave insult.
With what result his effort to avenge him
self, the cold and lifeless body told every
spectator who beheld it.

An Omission.

Of course, the Associated Press agent at
New Orleans did not mention in his dis

A story is current that two years ago,
when Fisk first had reason to believe that
Stokes was his rival in the affections of
Miss Mansfield, he told her Erie was going
up ON certain day, believing she would
inform the other lover (Stokesl, and that
he would attempt to profit by the informa-
tion. Fisk was right in his surmise
Stokes purchased Erie heavily, borrowing
largely. Erie went down, and Stokes lost
over one hundred thousand dollars. This
was Fisk's financial revenge, and it is said
he often bOasted of it.

Mr.. Jacob Staley some time ago thought
proper to steal letter in Omaha, from the
United States mail The letter contained
draft, on which the cash was got by a
forced Endorsement. A touching feature of
the case consisted in the fact that Staley's
wife went upon the stand and swore that
she was the forger. Her hope was to save
her husband and apparently perjured her
vain. and the judge in passing sentence
said he was entirely satisfied that the wo-
man was not guilty of the crime with which
she charged herself. The sentence was
heavy one, being that Staley should be con-
fined in the House of Correction for ten
wears.
