IT is astonishing how the votes chop

A STARTLEsd RAILROAD ORpER--PEobably
the most remarkable order that was ever given
TO @ railroad official was sent recently TO the
station agent at Tarrytowu, on the Hudson
Railroad. The telegraph message WAS: open
the switch and throw 49, into the river"
The agent was amazed. He knew that SO"
was an extra freight train beund South. To
throw it into the river seemed to him G crime.
Yet there was no mistake about the order. The
message was plain and unmistakRble. So the
switch was turned, and everything was pre-
pared to give 'S9" q cold bath whatever might
be the consequence to the occupants of the
train, the damage to the property of the
company. But, for some reason, 4" SO" did not
come. When it was several hours behind
time, the people became anxious. A search
was instituted, and the missing train was
found three miles north, in a disabled condi-
ton. The explanation of the mysterious order
soon came out. 1t appears that when "e9" was
passing Sing-Sing, Eve copvicts boarded the
engine, drove of the engineer and 6remen, aud
opened the throttlevalve TO it's fullest extent.
They were not quick enough, however, to pre-
vent the engineer from slyly turning on the
pumps As q consequence, the boiler hlled
with water, the eylinder-heads were blown ont,
and the train stopped. This was a fortunate
end to the escapade, for, if the train had CON
tinued on it's way, the railroad authorities
would have been compelled to throw it into
the river, in order to save passenger train
which occupied the track south Of Tarrysown.

A DISTRACTED FATHER.

Az distracted man, who resides in the
eastern part of Stark county, was in Canton on
last Thursday seeking for an erring daughter,
aged seventeen years, who he supposed was follow
ing the path of Robinson's show. The tears fore
cd q path down his cheeks as he made repeatedly
fruitess inquiries concerning the probable where
abouts of his child and none but those who have
experienced an anguish akin to his, can ever
know the depth of misery he felt, as he wander
ed aimlessly about not, knowing what to
do or where to gain trace Of the lost one.
lme time ago, year or two, this same daughter
manifested disposition to disobey parental
wishes and launch out into a course that could
only end in sin and ruin; everything was done to
prevent such result, but she succeeded in escap-
ing their watchful eyes, and in leaving home with
a show then exhibiting in Alliance, with which
she went for some days, when her father foundher
and took her back home; but she would not be
contented, every possible care had to be taken to
prevent her from again leaving and finally her
parents were compelled, as dernier resort, to send
her to thereform school, where she has since re-
mained, conducting herself in such manner that
they had become encouraged with the thought
COulu nave DuNh WIN 10 ~
dutiful and well behaved daughter but all hope
was sadly shaken from their minds when few
dayssi they learned that she had run off in
company with another girl, and from all they
could learn, had been seen at two towns between
Canton and Crestline, in the gatherings attracted
by the presence of the show. The father of the
girl, whom we saw on last Thursday, formerly re-
sided in Canton, and as he searched sadly and
anxioHsly through the needless crowds he would
stop every now and then when he thought he rec
ognizeda former acquaintance of this town, and
ask in pitiful tones; Have you seen my daugh-
ter?o then he would break completely down, and
could only tell his tale between sobs, Every effort
was made by friends and authorities to find the
missing girl, butt without effect. Such cases as
this have'been constantly recurring in this coun-
try, and those spangled libertines who encourage
and in many cases cause them, should be punish
cd to the seyerest extent of legal power.

ROBBERY AND PROBABLE MURDER

A correspondent writes from Waynesburgh,
Greene county:
On Wednesday evening of last week some ras-
Gals entered the bedroom OF a2cattle dealer nam
cd Daniel Ackley, who came to Waynesburgh
and drew out money from the Waynesburgh bank
to pay for cattle. They beat him until he was
senseless and carried him out into a street by
means of a ladder which they placed against the
window the room being on the second floor ofthe
waynesburg hotel and facing on side street.
They then secured his money, which was twenty
four hundred and some odd dollars and left him
senseless where he was discovered next morning.
The rascals have escaped with no clue to their
whereabouts Mr.. Ackley has relations residing
in both Allegheny and Pittsburgh. They are in
the meat business, and he says he furnished them
with cattle bought in this county. His recovery
is doubtful Pittsburgh Commercial, August 17h,

BILLS ALLOWED.

On last Thursday man from the country, who
was extensively drunk, went into Zimmermans
saloon on South Cherry street while he was in
the dive dancing horn pipe to the music of a
hand organ his wife opened the door and peeped
in, then she bit her lip and walked boldly into the
saloon; her husband didn't notice her and kept
dancing away with his back to her; she stood and
watched him only moment, and then marched
up, slapped him on the back, caught him by his
dexterear, and remarked
You slouch! You loafer You blear eyed
bruiser this is the reason havn't had new dress
since last summer two years ago. thisis the reason
you can't ptford to get me false set OF teeth;
then she gave his ear an extra hazardous jerk and
continued
What dye say hey OH you dare open that
beer valve OF yours TO me- and I'll scrr-r-atch ye.
Come home with me; come and see the little chill
dren playing sweetly in the mud wonderin II
they ever had dad; will they rush to meet you
and cling to your legs with love? Do they watch
for your coming as youngones generally look for
their parent not any nary time; they look for
you as one hog looks for another to come help it
swaller the swill; you git, and come home now;
then turning to the astounded saloonist she closed
her speech by saying;
That's the kind of peanut am; and you'd bet
ter look out or you'll know me better.
While she was talking to the saloon man, her
husband slipped out and throwing her shawl and
some other articles out of his wagon to the side
walk, drove Off and left her TO walk home, flour
miles in the country.

On show day rural gentleman was sitting in
his buggy with his daughter, on Tuscarawas
street. watching the gorgeous pageant pass glori-
ously by; it was all right till the drove of Ele-
plants came along, when his horse objected, and
began to throw his feet over the dash board with
dangerous reCklessness, The man and his daugh-
ter were kept busy as they could be, lodging
right and left, to prevent contusions, and Provi-
dence only knows what might have occurred had
it not been for the wonderful presence of mind
exhibited by a by stander who, taking the whole
situation in at glance, seized two large boulders
and hurled them in quick successson both of
them taking audible effect among the horses
ribs, and resulting in his sudden and complete
docility. We were unable to learn whether any
ribs were broken ornot, but the farmer seemed
satisfied and the horse moved off as quietly as an
old COW.

LAST Saturday evening, a little boy, aged about
three years, son of Adam Schneider who resides
two miles from Dover on the zoar road, met his
death in peculiarly shocking manner. While

full of fermented swill, 1t is not known how long
the child was in the barrel but when taken out
signs of life were still visible and physician was
