OHIO REPUBLICANS APPROVE THE CHOICE


COLUMBUS Ohio, Jan. 31.-The selection OF Judge
Bradley as fifth Judge of the Electoral Committee
has been the prevailing topic on the streets ana III
the legislative halls since noon. The announcement
was received by all Republicans with marked ap-
proval at the State House. All the officers OF the
State Government also greeted the appointment
with satisfaction. Gov. Hayes does not express
himself on the subject, but there is an unquallhed
approval by leading members of the party.
While the Democrats are somewhat disappointed
that Judge Davis did not accept, they are not as
posed to question the integrity OF Judge Bradley
and will abide by the decision arrived at lDere
has been an apparent falling off of Ilden confidence
since yesterday. and the most ardent supporters
have lost the enthusiasm which has been quite no.
ticeabIe of late. They regard as important, how
ever, the revelations brought out by the Congress
sional Committee investigating the Louisiana cleo
ton returns, and claim that this testimony cannot
fail to have its influence.

Cumberland County.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cumberland county
papers of last week.
On last Thursday, Mr.. George Har-
man, residing near Barnitz's mill, while
engaged in putting roof on a wagon
shed, on Mr.. Lafayette Pefiers farm,
he missed his footing and fell to the
ground a distance of fifteen or twenty
feet. He fell upon pile of lumber and
stones, receiving number of severe
bruises and cuts about his head and face,
which have confined him to the house
for several days. Mr.. H., can congratu-
late himself on so fortunate escape from
q very serious accident.
A little more than month since, Mr..
George Swanger of Dickinson township
was taken i'll with symptoms resembling
intersusseption of the bowels. He was
under the treatment of DR.. M. r. Culli-
son of White House for about two weeks
when DIR. A. j. Miller of Carlisle was
called in consultation. 1t was agreed
that the patient was suffering from in
tersusseption or n twist of the bowels
The most powerful known purgatives
and enemata We're resorted to without
effect. The patient lived one month
without a passage from the bowels when
death came to his relief. A post mortem
examination was made by Drs. A. j.
Miller and M. r.. CullisOn which dis
closed the fact that the large bowel, or
colon at its splemic floXure, was in
complete twist allowing nothing to pass
either way, and which was the inevitable
cause of death.
Messrs. Powell & Co., have had

large pieces and in many smaller, totally
demolishing the entire building over it,
as also others near it, good-sized trees
were cut off, posts were torn out, and
with other timbers and materials, etc,

to get leaves in the woods, and after get
ting about half mile from the house
tried to make the two older children re-
turn, saying she would keep the small
est, child about three years old. They
refused to go, fearing they would lose
the little fellow. AS the children did
not return, as expected, an older person
was sent to search for them and succeed
ed in overtaking them about mile
from the house. The story about the
man having the horse shod proved to be
entirely false 1t is pretty certain that
the person who attempted to entice
away the child, was man dressed as a
female, as it was plainly seen that he
had on wig, hair of another color
showing, while the size and features
were those of man. The little fellow
had been told that he would never see
his papa again, and it was undoubtedly
the intention of the scamp to steal the
child. 1t is pity he was not arrested
and put where he would do the most
good.

Remarkable Story.-Dr. Jesse Laverty,
living in Eastpennsboro' twp, is great
lover of pork. A number of pigs are
raised yearly by him, and many children
would be glad of the attention given to
the inmates of his pens. The Doctor
and Mrs. Laverty recently took trip
and were gone three days. When on
their way home, fifteen miles away they
saw at a cross road a pig which had q
wonderfully familiar look, which stood
facing the corners and when they came
near made dash for the buggy and got
entangled in the running gear, which
soon brought things to stand still. Sat
isfied that the young porker was his own
the doctor gave him lift into the buggy
where he lay still as child When the
buggy neared the barn the Jewish out
cast woke up made a leap from the buggy
and ran for his pen. 1t turned out that
the pig had been stolen and carried 20
miles into the country, and was home
ward bound when he espied his old
friend and got the lift into the buggy.
The doctor, whose veracity has never
been questioned, says he is willing to
testify to the above facts valley Spirit.

Attempt to Kdnap.-A few days ago
person attired as a woman stopped at
the house of James ]. Peck, in Liberty
Valley, and asked to stay there while
waiting for her husband, whom she
stated had stopped to get shoe on his
horse. She soon asked the children to
accompany her to the saw mill, a short
distance from the house when three of
them started with her. After getting to
the mill she enticed them further along
