ALL sRRESE. in Columbus, Ohio,
Harry Palmer was whipped by the
brother OF Hannah Petillool, to whom
he was botrothed. By way Of revenge,
Harry took another girl to q ball, and
then, also by way of revenge, Hannah
went to his place Of business next day
and shot him. The wound was in his
side, and not very dangerous, although
Il kept him abed for several days. He

well as could be expected, She Ia q

Gently had about two weeks of very cold
weather.
You want to know how we have
managed to get along, &c. Well, we
have managed to trough it, 50 far, but
| don't know how we can stand it much
longer. We have about % lbs, Of -four,
and about 10 lbs. Of dried beef left, and
l don't know, for the life of me, where
the next bite Of provision is to come
from when that is gone. Flour is worth
$3.50 a. $500 per cwt; potatoes Sl.5O
per bushel; beans 5000; corn S100
@ S1.25; bacon Is cts. per pound;
beef Gets. Flour, beans, potatoes and
pork are shipped here from Missouri,
aud the merchants say they are selling
it at cost.
You said you would send me aid if |
needed-you thought that you could
help me, &c. If you can send me S25
or $50 I would be willing to repay it
with good interest. if ever get able to
do so.
Tho freight on -four from your place
would be nearly as much as the flour
would be worth here.
Tell -, -, -, that they
must do something for their brother and
his family here, or they will starve. A
man can get no work here unless he
would work for nothing aud board him
SELF Ifyou folks up there have any
more old clothes than you know what to
do with, they would be useful here, for
some of the people. Clothing that is
outgrown, or gone out of fashion
would be just as acceptable here. l am
not begging for myself, for can stand
this climate to 60 perfectly naked. But
there are thousands Of little ones that
cannot stand it. IF there are any pro.
fessed christians in that part of the
country who desire to do good. they
can do no better than to send few boxes
Of such clothing, or some means to buy
provisions for the suffering poor of Kan.

DURING the epidemic of intermit-
tents in the Wes. this season, the whole
immense stock of Ayers Ague Cure
became exhausted, and the producing
power of his Laboratory was found in-
adequate to meet the demand. Many
who knew Its extraordinary virtues for
the cure of Cbills and Fever, paid ex-
orbitant prices for it to those who we're
fortunate enough to have a supply on
hand. Some of our neightors paid ten
dollars for bottle, while the regular
price is but one, and assure us it was
on the whole the cheapest remedy they
could buy, even at that figure. They
praise it for two qualities FIRST, that it
cures, and last that it leaves the health
unimpaired.-Io,ca Standard.

0SE OF THEM


ABOUT ten o'clock last night brake
man uamed William Mccullough was
almost instantly killed in the railroad
company's yard, opposite the passenger
depot, Altoona. There are several
theories as to the manner of the acci-
dent, all of which differ considerably.
One person states that he was standing
with his face to some cars stationary in
the yard, adjusting the coupling link,
when an engine backed a car against
him, driving the coupling link through his
body. about the small of his back. We
We do not give this as correct theory
of the affair, at all, ior it seems almost
impossible to obtain the actual facts.

On Saturday evening, oath ult., a
iendish attempt was made to throw the
mail tram, which leaves this city at
740 p m, of the track, short dis
tauce this side of WilEore, Cambria
country. Some villains had piled ties
and rails across the tracks and the
train would certainly have been wrecked
had it not been that the barricade was
discovered and the train tagged by a
gentleman who resides in that vicinity.
Plunder is supposed to have oeen the
object, but wholesale murder would
have been the result. The scoundreis
should be promptly arrested and pun

An unsuccessful effort was made a
few days ago by some of the prisoners
now confined in our Jail to escape
They made two keys out of pewter,
with which they hoped to be able to
open the heavy iron doors that eOnhne
them within the prison walls. Their
efforts, however, were failure. The
material used in making their keys
proved entirely too soft to turn the
heavy locks, and the result was they
broke the first key which they tried,
leaving part of it fast in the lock
When the Sheriff endeavored TO unlock
the door, the next morning, he discOv-
cred the part of the broken key in the
lock.-Huntingdoa Monitor.
