A sewing machine agent, by the
name Of Palmer, drove into our village
last Wednesday morning, hllched his
horse, attached TO light buggy, along
the pike, near the new school house,
and went about transacting business.
While he was thus engaged, a railroad
train frightened the animal, causing it
10 break loose. 1t ran down the pike
toward the depot, and when near Grange
Hall ran up steep embankment 10 a
stone fence, which it tried 10 jump, but
the buggy pulled him backward as he
reared tor the jump, and he fell down
the bank, breaking his neck aud consid-
erlbly damaging the buggy. Before
night The agent had procured another
horse, and was again transactlng bust
ness, poorer bat wiser man.

have each lost several sheep in the same
way. Mr.. Eichelberger's flock having
been paid a second visit. If each dis

enormous; for we believe there is one
dog to each adult person in the district.
