On Sunday as Mr.. Hickman and
family were ON their way home,
some boys were running a hand
truck on the rail road at which the
horse took fright, upsetting the bug
gy, throwing Mrs. Hickman and
child out. Happily, no serious re-
suit. The boys should at once be
stopped in such sport.
On the same evening J. w. Run
kle had his buggy overturned. 1t
happened after preaching and caused
considerable scare but no damage.

Married Women and BulldIng Asso-
ClAtlOn Loans.

The supreme court of this state
rendered n decision i'm the case of
Wolbach and wife against the Le-
high Building association. 1t de-
clares that in all cases where mar
ried women deal with the associa-
tions the mortgage is good only for
the actual amount loaned and legal
interest. a logical consequence
seems to be that if the money loaned
has not been used to buy or improve
her separate real estate, but has been
used to raise money to pay her hus-
bands debts, or for other purposes,
it is void altogether.
This will, no doubt, seriously affect
the vast investments made by build
ing associations on the credit OF
mortgages given 10y married women,
and VIII prove q grave matter for
such associations. Or late years it
has been a very common practice for
men to hold their property in their
wives names, and when desirouS of
a loan, to join with the wives i'll the
mortgage, contrary to the law rs 1t
now appears. The effect of this de-
ciSion will certainly be seen in litiCa-
tion consequent upon sEits on mort
cages given by married women, and
a total refusal by the associations to
make future loans on any TERMS
Erchdnge.

seems to be after Wells and Ander-
son, the most infamous two of the
Louisiana Return Board, in earnest.
They stand indict ed and are under
arrest for forgery and perjury, in
publishing and dec laring as true the
Returns of the Presidential election
for Louisiana, having themselves al
tered and forged the same 10 an ex-
tent that gave the electoral vote of
that state to HAYES, when it was
patent to the world that Tilden had
fairly carried it. Wells sends IA wall
of despair up TO Washington for help,
as il poor Hayes could help them II
he would. Such is fortunately not
the, case. The Executive Depart-
mept OF the National Government
and the Judicial Department OF the
state of Louisiana are entirely dis
tinct in their functions and the one
has not the slightest control over
the other. Not even the President'S s
pardon could reach the case. The
Board must stand or fall ON the
record they made for themselves,
and neither HAYES nor his cabinet
can save them.
There is n great flutter in admin
istration circles over this matter.
The President shows much concern
about it, and is of the opinion that
the indictment of Wells and Ander-
son should be regarded as q violation
of the understanding under which
the Federal support was withdrawn
from Packard. III such a bargain
did exist it is simply damning and
fiiscraceful to Mr.. Hayes and Gov.
Nichols both. but has no binding
force whatever on the law courts or
Louisiana. What right have Hayes
and Nichols to compound the felony
OF common criminals or impede the
course of Justice? All "understand-
ingss' of such kind are criminal in
themselves and indictable at common
law. But we doubt very much
whether Gov. Nichols made himself
party to- any such contract. He
NAV stand pledged that no one
shall be prosecuted from political or
personal motives so far as he can
prevent it, and that would I've alto
Ctther consistent with his well
known conservative character and
essential to the pacification of the
turbulent political elements in Loui-
eiana; but il is extremely doubtful
that he entered into solemn compact
60 shield forgers and perjurers fIom
trial and punishment.
The small fry of the Radical press
affect to treat the whole matter with
contempt and say that in no event
will Hayes title TO the Presidency
be effecte.l: but the more respectii-
ble Republican papers, asfor instance
instance the New York Tribune
takes matters much more seriously.
The Tribune threatens that il Hayes
il "broken down" the soldier and
earpet-bagger wi ill march back into
the Southern State houses perhaps
before the end of the present Presi-
dental term. Such threats are no.
thing more or less than an admission
of that the conviction of the Return
Board rascals will seriously affect if
not entirely invaledate Mr.. Hayes
title to the Presidency, and may lead
to his expulsion from the White
House.
The country demands fair but
searching trial of the accused, and if
they are found guilty let such con-
dign punishment be meted out to
them as will make n repetition of
their infamous crime forever impOs-
sihle.

horse that was stolen on the night OF

thief, it appears, made his way
through Union, Snyder, Mifflin
Counties, ard again through the up

County, where officer WeStbrook of
Lock Haven got on his track. On
Saturday last he was surrounded in
the woods and mountains beyond
CurwenSville. He had concealed
the mare i'm q ravine and was getting
away himself ON foot in another di-
rection, when he Was discovered by
two men by the name of Bloom, who
were looking for him. They called
''halt," then fired two shots ut him.
He still persisted III running, when
one of them shot him through the
left lung, breaking rib. He
then disclosed to them the where
aOouts of this mare. S"e was found
at the place, looking little thin for
the ride and hardShipS she had en-
dured.

on TO BELLEFONTE !

In speaking of the openingssOf L.
&. s 5. G. rail road, the Wotchman
says:
"The people along the route paid with
liberality that was simply astonishing and
waited with patience that would have
slant were their expectations fully real
tZed. Is it any wonder, then, that every
body and all their friends went to Spring
Mills TO witness the arrival OF the first
passenger cars and become part of q
grand excursion down the road TO laurel
ton and back?n
True as preaching. Brother Meek !,
every word of it. Our people deeply
felt the absolute necessity of q rail
road and done all they could to get
it. The several townships along the
line in Centre county subscribed and
paid from $25.000 to $4,000 each.
But that els not exactly what we
were going to say. We paid our
money. have the road, and our
'stock" is about digested, although
it was about the toughest diet Penns
Valley ever had to masticate. WHAT
next ? Hear what the Watchman
says further:
"And now, what shall be done with the
railroad? Shall 1t stop where il L., or be
nally aid the development and improve
ment of the whole of Pennsylvania, as
well as OF Bellefonte Citizens of Belle
fopte-Farmers of Pennsvallcy, 9lOo Is
your time. The completion of the road
through to Lelnont and this place will
give extra valne to your property, open
To you the cheapest and best markets, re-
duce your freightage and add vastly to
your coasfort and copvenience. What say
you? Let US strike while the iron is hot
and titus mould this great enterprise in
accordance with onr earnest desires and
long-cherished expectations"
Now that is plain. direct.--a cap
ital centre shot, i'm fact. 1t is just
the talk land much more of it'll we
like to hear ON this subject. Penns
Valley wants rail road connections
with Bellefonte, its county town and
principle business place. Anything
less than that would be mere make.
shift and bungling. For instance
we can not see the propriety of ex-
tending the road to Centre Hall and
make another stop there in the work
for an indefinite time. Let it be
made through to Lemont, and Belle
fOnte will meet us there. She can
p0t-dare not, refuse to do it. If
we understand Mr.. Meek rightly he
appeals to the Penns Valley people
as much as to those of Bellefonte, to
assist IN building the gap between
Spring Mills and Bellefonte. His
language, "citiZens of Bellefonte-
Farmers of Penns Nalley, ,ow is
your time," would seem to indicate
that material help from Penns Val
ley would be altogether acceptable to
Bellefonte. This can not be. Our
people have done nobiy. They have
done all they can or will do, and it
would be as unfair as useless to ask
them to do more. Even if Belle
fonte grades the road entire from
Gheir town to Lemont, she will have
done but a tithe of what our people
did. Penns Valley has spoken and
acted, let Bellefonte follow her ex-
ample. She has the floor,
