TAoHMENT.-We notice that among
the patents issued from the Depart
ment at Washington, during the pres
ent month, @. d. Shrader, of Lancas-
ter, received one on harvester at
tachment. This invention consists of
an attachment for use upon ordinary
self-rake reapers, by which the rake,
instead offollowing the common reap
err platform and sweeping the gavel
onto the ground, is caused to run up
an inclined plane, after following the
reaper platform half way across, and
to deposit the gavel upon a second
and raised platform. The gavel is
then compressed against the rear side
of the elevated platform by sweep
working in correspondent motion with
the rake and thus brou1 hit within con.
venient and easy reach of the binders,
who ride in box, in the rear of the
elevated platform, supported and
balanced upon two caster wheels, and
connected to the main frame of the
reaper by swivel joint and brace
rod running under the platform by
which the binders box is drawn and
held in position, and yet is free to
adapt itself to any inequalities in the
ground, independent of the reaper.
Tire binders pick the gavel from the
elevated platform and bind them up>
on tables constructed for the purpose,
and throw them, when bound, into
kind of hopper until sufficient num-
Der is collected for a shock or half
shock, when, by touching treadle
by the foot they are dumped in pile
ready for shocking, and the hopper
automatically sets itself for another
shock. 1t is claimed by the inventor
that by the use of this attachment any
reaper may be so balanced as to re-
move all weight upon the necks of the
team and also the Objectionable "side
draft" of many machines, and that an
ordinary combined reaper and NOW
err may be changed into a complete
harvester in few minutes, thus fur
nishing the farmer, for little more
than the price of one machine, har-
vester, self rake reaper and mower.
The machine was tested in the har-
vest field last season and was pro-
nounced success by all who saw it
work-the binders claiming that the
gavels were delivered in much better
shape than they could be on the
ground or upon ordinary harvesters
and that they could bind much faster
than they could upon the endless
apron harvester.

SPELLING SCHOOL Thursday even
ing last the social room of the Con-
gregational church was filed with
people interested in the new and
popular amusement entitled "the
old.fashioned stand-up-and choose
sides spelling school," in which
spirited feeling was manifested. Mr..
T.A.Burr was selected as teacher and
Miss snnie Church as umpire. Mr..
Chas. Eaton and MISS Emma Shrader
chose sides. with Is on side. All
things being in readiness, "time" was
called and the match was opened.
At first the ''small shot" had little
effect upon the competing lines, but
soon "the grape and canister" began
to play sad havoc among the ranks
of both sides, and as the "heavy SHELF
fell thick and fast, here and there az
pirants would "drop" into their seats
(some reluctantly, too) with a sigh.
Mr. Chas. Eaton's division missed IL
worGf; Miss Shrader's missed Is.
Now the spelling down" followed
and very rapidly contestants took
their seats till only five were left. The
hugo "chain shot" proved too much
for them, and with dose Of "asafet-
ida" all fell together, making draw
battle. AS Master Burr paced up
and down the room, and the ladies
and gentlemen buzzed in each others
ears, sometimes raising a blush and
sometimes delicate smile, how vivid
ly the days of long ago, with all
their sacred memories, came back to
many. The entertainment was en-.
ioyed, and will be repeated this even
ing. The following rulss have been
adopted for the government of the
school:
/. Each speller is entitled to definition of
the words proposed for spelling.
2. The standard of authority as to spelling
or pronunciation shall be Webster's Unabridged
INSTRUMENTATION oflS72-but words spelled
according to Worcester's Dictionary, latest
edition, shall be deemed correctly spelled.
g. Each speller shall be entitled to but one
trial for each word-the umpire to decide what
attempt is or is not a trial
A. 1t shall not be necessary for a speer to
syllable his words; he may exercise his choice.
5. proper names, including geographical
words. obsolete words, foreign words not in
common use, and technical terms not in com-
mon use, are barred
6. All appeals from the decision of the
schoomaster to the umpire, and all dissatisfac>
ton with the rulings of the schoolmaster, and
with the words given out by him, must be
made by and expressed through the class
leader. Should the class leader be spelled
down, he will still offciate for the purposes
mentioned in this rule.
T. 1t shall be the duty Of the umpire to sus
tain or reject the rulings of the schoolmaster
without discussion by umpire, schoolmaster,
any speller or any other person.

RUNAwAYs. Saturday was jolly
day for ruDaways; the horses, so glad
that Spring had really come, frisked
around and kicked up their heels
quite lively. Early in the afternoon,
Rev. S. n. Johns, of Fennimore, left
his horse and buggy standing on the
streets, and as the gentle zephyrs
scattered some waste paper across
the road, the horse became frightened,
ran several blocks, and brought up in
the neighborhood of Mr.. Fred Phelps
house, heels up and buggy on top,
in which condition the horse coolly
waited for some one to relieve him,
which was quickly done; and, strange
to say, 40 serious damage resulted;
luckily, however, that the reverend
gentleman was not in his seat at the
time of the accident. Later in the
afternoon, colt of Mr.. Geo. d. Utt's,
being attached to delivery wagon,
was passing the Congregational
church, and laboring under the i'm.
preston that spelling school was in
session within, desired to stop right
there; the driver refusing to have it so
the colt clicked against" such treat
ment, and his hind feet became en-
tangled in the dash board, in which
condition he promenaded on his fore
feet for while, to the delight of the
spectators. The amount of damage
Boy frightened, and dashboard de
molished.

AMUSEMENT AT THE SCHOOL HOUSE.
As previously announced in the
HERALD, the literary society of the
Lancaster school held one of their en-
te-tainments in the chapel of the
school building Monday evening, and
were greeted by an extraordinary
large audience. That which was in
augurated and PIT into operation for
the edification of few, has continued
TO attract attention and interest to
such an extent that now the hall is
filed at an early hour with the best
people of the village, all eager to
spend an honr Or so in the encourage
ment of this enterprise. The exer
cises are varied and attractive, the
music excellent, and the lyceum is
Just what it pretends to be, and its
members, with Mr.. Brindley as their
leader, can feel assured that their eff
forts are appreciated-not "so-so"-
but highly commended and admired
by all good and intelligent citizens.
Last Monday the programme was a
good one, as below given:
Defamation. ...............A Adolf borah

In the debate the contestants were
not fairly apportioned; as the knowl-
edge and ability of Mr.. Brindley alone
won the verdict of the jury for the
affirmative. Had Mr.. BIS place been
filed by a younger member, it is quite
likely the negative side would have
carried off the laurels. Master Harry
elise, in his manner of delivery, which
was gentle and mild, yet distinct and
clear, displayed the fact that his train
ing at the Capitol has been beneficial
to him. The entire performance was
frst-rate, and really not open to crit
icism, as the members of the society
claim only to be amateurs, and tc
criticise with any correctness, none
but connoissesr could do. Mr.
Edwards, in his defamation, did fully
as well as could be reasonably ex
pected upon his first appearance
and has no reason whatever to fee
discouraged. The next meeting, TO b'
held on the evening of May 10
will, it is expected, excel any forme
one
