The Lawrence tKansasl Tribune thus
exposes one Of the tricks Of the Gran
gers in that neighborbood About
two months ago, Mr.. Alexander Boyd.
Master Of Washington Valley Grange,
came to Lawrence for a load OF sand,
and just as be was going to the river
near the L. L. i u. depot, with his
team and wagon. the locomotive wbis-
tied, and the horses took fright. Mr..
Boyd jumped for their beads,. bur, al
though he held on TO rhem for time,
they tore loose from him, dragged bin
down, and rbe wagon passed over his
thigh, so severely injur,ng him that he
was insen.ible for several hours. His
thigh was badly mangled, and it is feared
be may suffer permanent injury. He
was taken to the lawrence House and
received medical attendance. lie was
taken home the next day il badly
suffering condition, but he Is now we'll
enoughto get around his farm.
50 His Grange, bearing of his cnndi-
tion, in which he could not Issist an
attack, invaded his corn6eld, stripped
The Lusks from the corn, and loaded
seven wagons The first intimation he
had Of such an attack was the teams in
the field, aud the men at work. The
Grangers came with their teams and
their husking pegs and everything ne
cessary for full days work, and the
astonished Master was at loss to know
what it all meant, so complete was the
surprise. There were seven wagons
and teams, and meh enough to man
them Before night almost FIVE hundred
bushels of Mr.. Boyd's corn was we'll
eribbed and in good condition. This is
one Of the tricks Of the Changers one
of the secrets Of the order, which the
'soutside barbarians" are not privileged
to know. Probably there has never
been j'llier husklng frolic than this,
nor one that was better appreciated by
the happy recipients of this act Of kind
ness. hether they bad the usual fun
with red ears or not, is more than an
editor is privileged to know. 1t IS one
of The god things Of the Grange tba, it
brings the people together in social in
tercourse and tends to acts Of neigh
borly kindness. Long may it prosper
and continue 10 perPetrate its tricks
upon the unfortunate and deserving
brethren 7"

The Lykens, DauphIn county, Pa,
Register tells the following:
A man named Thomas Morgan, who
resides With his wife and six children at
the east end of Pottsville street, y l.
conisco- upper end OF this coun'y-wss
shot and fatally wounded on Thursday
night last The tao older children OF
Mrs. Morgan are BY former husband.
and consist of boy and girl. IL ap-
pears that on the evening Of the shoot
ing Mr.. Morgan attended the lodge OF
the knights of Fythias In Wiconisco,
returning home in company with a
ueighbor about 10 o'clock. A few min
utes after he entered the house the re-
port OF pistol was heard. MIR. John
Murphy, living two doors east, in very
few moments reached the scene, and
was told By Mr. Morgan that his step
son.. Hampton Miller, had shot him.
The painful news spread rapidly, and
the house was soon besieged with ex-
cited people. s Drs. Maurer and De
Veny, of Williamstowu, held consul
tation the next morning, aud it was
:heir opinion that the unfortunate man
could net long survive. Before Squire
Israel, Mr.. Morgan made the following
sworn statement: "I came home irom
the lodge in company with Alfred Wal
lace; | went to my valise, found it open
and few articles taken out; then went
up stairs with some books and placed
them in my box; asked Mrs. who
opened my vaIise she said nobody,
but finally admitted she had opened it
herself, and while Mrs. and me were
having words about the opening Of the
valise, j. Hampton Brubaker Miller
shot me while was on my knees in
front of the box" In accordance with
this deposition young Hampton Miller,
the step sou was arrested and lodged in
prison. The feeling against the young
man was quite bitter in the community
but he exhibited scarcely any concern
for his fate, and refused to converse on
the subject Of his shooting. He is
about l9 years of age. Early in the
evening of the tragic affair Mrs. Nor
gan called at the office Of justice Of
the peace and expressed fear that
something would happen the family
during the night. She further declared
that her husband was behaving badly,
and asked that constable be stationed
in the vicinity of the house. From
this it is inferred that she was apprised
of the plot to murder her husband. The
domestic relations of the family had
not been pleasant for several years.

Secretary of the Interior, sending him
the following telegram

Making Counterfeit Money In
Jail.

Making Counterfeit Money I'm
Jail.
The last place people look for coun-
terfeit money to come from is Jail or
prison-house, to which counterfeiters
are sent when caught in their unlawful
work. A despatch from Columbus,
Ohio, sent last Sunday, relates the al
most marvellous intelligence, Of the
issue of counterfeit coin from the peni
Tertiary at that place, as follows:
For some time counter felt FIVE cent.
pieces or nickels have become very
cvnmon here, aud until to- day the
public knew nothing as TO where they
came from. To day a Sunday .Nerrs
reporter, after patient investigation, has
learned the particulars of what has de-
veloped into FIRST class sensation
These bogus coiLs have be,n traced to
a young son of Colonel e.. S. Innis,
warden of the peniren'iary. Upon
being interrogated, the child said tina,
he had been furnished the coin By GER
tam prisoners to purchase tobacco for
them This led to an investigation,
and it now turns out that the making of
these nickels has been going on in the
pebitentiary without discovery. The
moulds for the coin we're made BY pris-
oners, and the metal used was amalgam
used in plating harness in the harness
shop.
