to be to stir up strife and create
enmity and hard feelings, where be-
fore friendship and neighborly good

manhood and womanhood--for these
characters are 70 be found among
both sex alike-will torture and
twist language and actions, however
plain and natural, into something
entirely foreign and never intended
by the subject of their spIeen-they
will, by their devilish ingenuity, by
hints and inuendoes more than by
outspokeu and direct charges, such
as would be made by fearless,
outspoken man or woman conscience
of truth and rectitude Of purpose,
make mole-hills appear like noun
tains, and concoct a scheme OF most

jest, caught up and extended BY
these rotten.hearted fiends, grows
into a monstrosity, creating diyis-

ing ill.will and hatred between life

bloody tragedies. The most lie

ear-marks SO plain that they can
easily be detected and when once
detected they become, as they
should. a mark at which the finger
of every honest man is pointed with
scorn and contempt. There are,
we are told, in some neighborhoods

been sending out their gaagrened

anonymous letters. Patience has
ceased to be virtue when applied

HORSE TANNING. - Mr. r. Fl.
Tapp, who opened . school in this
city the first Of the week in which
the art Of training horses Is thor
oughly taught, invited us to come
TO his school-room on Wednesday
afternoon TO see him train and edu-
cate horses that had, through i'm.
proper handling, become almost
unmanageable. A large, muscular,
nervy, fine.looking bay horse was
first handed over to the Professor.
The owner remarked that he had q
very bad fault, among others. OF
throwing himself when hitched to a
wagon, nearly always breaking the
tung and tearing the harness to
pieces. The Prof turned the horse
loose, and, with only . whip
in his band, compelled the horse to
come to him at his call, and stand
until bridled. Then, after . short
time spent in educating to theproper
point, be hitched him up, and he
went off as though he had never
taken the astuds" or thrown him.

at bucking-the horse had found
his master. Quite . number Of hor.

the present time. A reward of$500

described: John w. Brown is
about 28 years Of age, dark hair,
moustache and chin whiskers; /;
heavy dark eyebrows; black eyes;
square shoulders; stout build, and

appellatlonofthe "Bay of all Beauties.
1t presents a view. which always
offers some new scene Of, beauty and

tower above the clouds, and having
a very narrow entrance, it was
known among the Indian tribes,
who owned the whole of the country
before they we've conquered by the
lharnessed chivalry of spain, as "The
Hidden Water.''" 1t is a. small
Mediterranean Sea, and what is fabg-

A SAFE ROBBER, WHO BAGGED HALF

pTTPcTTTT
PURSUIT.
From the Denver News; april 81

From the Denver News; april 81.
In the early part of 1878 one OF
the most daridg and successful rob
beAles on record Was perpetrated at
Petre leum Center, in Venango coun~
ty "a. Five men living in Sacgers-
town, SIX miles from Meadville, en-
tered the house Of a wealthy man
named Bennehof, while the family
were at supper, and at the mnzzle of
the pistol compelled Bennehoff to de-
liver up the key 70 one Of his safes,
III which he kept an enormous sum
OF money. This was done, and the
robbers secured over half million of
dollars IN United States notes, which
they emptied into a pillow cage and
made good their escape. Two ofthe
robbers were afterward arrested and
convicted, one getting seven and the
other fltteeo years in the Pennsylva-
MA State Prison. Two others have
never benn heard from; while the
fifth, James anne Saeger, OF Saegerstown,
has been q fugitive from justice ever
since, foll> wed by detectives nearly
into every corner of the world. 1t
appears that. after the robbery, the
money was secreted for two days, it
being the understanding among the
robbers that they were to meet at a
specified time and 'whack up,'' as
the matter of division of spoil is
termed in thieves slang. Before the
time, Saeger stole, the whole amount
from the hiding place and jumpedthe
country, leaving his companions with
no monee and the guilt of being par
ties to the burglary. It was one Of
the mosi remarkable cases on record,

deferred from attending church and
places of public instruction in con-
sequence Of inability to conform to
the dictates Of fashion also that
much Of the debility and disease
prevalent among women may be
directly traced to errors IN dress; and
WHEREAS, The detedotion Of the
health Of women, together with the
increasing habit Of using stlmalants
by men, will certainly bequeath to
future generations morbid appetites,
weak nerves, and debiIitated bodies,

would materially abate the physical

Therefore, We. the undersigned,

gard to army reduction ia represented as
having very injurious effect on officers,
who, from the feeling of uncertainty as to
retaining their commissions, are losing that
regard for their profession and that esprit
du corps which is so necessary in the army.
Secretary Belknap says that although he
asstnted to the reduction OF the estimates,
the army at its present strength can not be
maintained for the amount of the reduced
appropriation, and that in order to keep
within the amount recommended recruiting
will have to be stopped, either entirely or
partially. A remarkable fact in connection
with the army is that the average annual
reduction. based on the experience OF the
last three years. through deaths, desertion
