THE UNyONTo WN ARSON CASE

Mr.. james BurIison has furnished us
with some interesting facts in regard 10 a
singular arson case he has been working
up IN Uniontown, They are as follows:
Two families in the above mentioned
town named Swinehart and Or nIer have
had some difficulty growing oul Of u love
all,ur between young SWinehart and the
daughter OF CEmer, and cunsi ,crahle un.

young SWlneharl found IN Il slrdw-5lack
contagious to his fathers barn. piece Of
cloth, | had been fired, butlhe fire had
,moJhered OUT The family were some
what excited over The discovery, as the
burning OF The stack would have been
tertaln destruction 10 the barn Mr.
BurllsJn WAS set to work to investigate
matters and suspicion pointing to the
Cramers, he interviewed Mrs. Swope, a
sister OF Mrs. Cramer, and learned that
Mrs, Crlmer had come TO her to ask If
she had amy punk ; said she wanted it to
save matches, Finding Mrs Swope had
none she asked her if She would go to a
brother-in-law's name Gle rge Miler's
Mrs. Swope consenting they went on the
9th, passing through piece of woods
and finding what they supposed to be
punk on a stump they secured several
pieces. Mrs, Swope in reply to ques-
tioning said she burned hers but it did
not burn well. Mr.. Burlson went to the
woods indicated, found the stump from
which three pieces had been taken and
found that the punk from thes fitted
precisely in one of of the cavities left by
The removal Of punk
Visiting man who dealt in meat in
Uniontown, Mr. Burlison found that q
small piece of fresh meat had been sold
Mr. Cr.mer just previous to the date of
firing the stack and that the bloody pa
per in which the punk was wrapped cor
responded with that which the dealer
was accustomed to use. Mr.. BurlsOn
then sought the Cramers Mrs. Cramer
substantiated Mrs. Swope's story in re-
gard to the procuring of the punk, and
being asked what she did with it said she
burned it. Mr. Cramer was told that
suspicion rested strongly on them and
was questioned in regard to the meat
He admitted buying it; first said that it
was not wrapped in a paper then that he
burned the paper and finally that he
himselfburned the punk. When Mr..
Burlison produced both paper and punk,
Mr., and Mrs Cramer seemed much con
fused
On MonGay last they were both ar
rested and waving an examination were

PRIZE FIGHT.

On last Tuesday night, two young men
well known in our town, each possess. ng
an ill-feeling for the other, agreed to
fight it out according to the recognized
rules of the prize ring fraternity, We
are constrained to suppress the names
for the present, but, however, the young
pugilists, accompanied by about twenty
five idlers, repaired to suitable spot
near the West Creek, and cold as the
night was, threw off extra lothing and
prepared for the sanguinary conflict.
One of the conbatants was Considera-
BILE degree larger than his opponent,
though younger, and less experienced in
the art of putting up heads" Tut a
short time was occupied in prelimina-
ries, and everything was soon prepared,
when the two you-'g bruisers went at it
in good initiative style. We are unable
to give the result of each round, but
nine rounds were hotly contested, the
ninth round ending the fight, by the
larger contestant knocking the other
out of time by a well delivered blow on
the head. The affair was very quietly
conducted, and all endeavors made to
keepit secret, but we have learned to
certainty all we have told

ON last Friday Second ward mother was en-
tertainng caller when the conversation turned
to her 70 ir.year old boy. She was telling whata
solemn and quiet little angel he was-one Of the
best children alive---so modest, you know. He
was already deeply in love with books, and
strange to tell had not the slightest inclination to
play like other children. Just then Benfans
precious entered, mouth spread like crescent
and face smeared with stolen jam from ear to
ear, He was dragging grizzly kitten by the
tail, and to prevent squalling It's head was suno
catingly encased in tea-cup. and its body orna
nented with rag Of plaid silk, bound on with
cord, and ornamented with tassels As the kitten
performed d pirouette swung by the infant, he
yelled: "Hoopla, mammyl Kitty stole jam, and
wouldn't say imsprayers. Eddie put a head on
him, and lock him up in dark tloset, where |
goes when says 'tenor There was sudden
maternal blush, Eddie was led out by the ear, and

CHAMED-on last Saturday, morning, about
eight o'clock, the mouldets In O. Aultinan a Co.'s
shop all ceased their work and marched through
the shop ina body, singing "We're going home" :"
and deporting themselves as though they meant
70 cease work for the day. This movement was
not met favOnbly by the foreman, Daniel Lank'
CT, who began 10 expostuate with the men, tel
ling them that It was necessary that certain work
should be done on that day, and raising serious
objections to their knocking of in that uncere'
monious way. Mr. Ianker was continuing his
elltreates, when Allen Smith stepped forward,
aud with neat and appropriate little speech
presented him with an elegant gold watch chain
and Masonic seal which cost $50 Mr.. Lanker
gave the chain bank stare then stared at the
boys In manner more blank ana after few IN
coherent words intended for earnest thanks he
called 1t a conundrum, and gave 1t up He was
without doubtthe most completely dumblounded

Ir has been proven to demonstration
that the man who said he was robbed at
the American House last week of $4,000
was not robbed at all, and the probabili-
ties are that he did not have over two or
three dollars with him at the time. On
examination before j. d. Lewis, ESQ, he
gave his name as Baumbarger, and his
residence Canton, and refused totell where
he got the greater amo1nt of money

Eva Bailey, who were arrested and tried
for the robbery were acquitted, there not
being the shadow Of evidence against
