an eight day clock (stopping It at twenty
minutes Of twelye) thinking they could
find money concealed in the case. They
went to the cellar, stole number Of
pies, then left the premises.
When they had gone Mrs. Pagan
managed TO unite the knots with her
teeth, got her hands free and re-
leased Mrs. Eckert. The woman then
began to scream, which brought TO their
assistance Mr.. Benjamin Albright, q
neighbor, who lives one-eighth of mile
from the scene of the outrage. He re-
leased Mr.. Eckert, and among other
neighbors two sons of Mr.. Eckert were
Immediately sent for. No Identification
of the robbers was had. The women
say that one was tall, stout man, that
another was short, stout man, with a
heavy black moustache.
Mr.. and Mrs. Eckert are feeble as well
as old, having lately recovered from
serious illness the latter is nearly blind,
and Mrs. Fagon is quite deaf. Consider
ing the treatment they received, they
have pretty clear ideas of the transac-
ton. They all were u great deal bruised,
and now are suffering considerably.

Mr.. EDITOR Thinking few lines from
this place would be interesting, take the lib
erty of giving few items for your valuable
paper.
On Wednesday of this week as one your
townsmen. Mr.. Roush, was driving along Front
street his horse became frightened at passing
train of cars, and the young lady who was in
the buggy commenced screaming which fright
ened the animal still more, which became un-
Manageable and threw the lady out behind, and
the gentleman in front of the buggy, he being
very stout young man, held on to the horse,
and strange to say, no one was injured nor was
anything broken, and after gathering up, and
fixing things in their proper places, they again
entered the vehicle and went on their way re-
joicing. Great credit is due Mr.. Rouse for his
GOODNESS during the whole exciting accident,
and also great sympathy for the young lady,
who was thoroughly frightened.
By the energy of our enterprlsng citizen, Mr..
Uhler, we have ticket Office at Juniata
Bridge station, P. r. R., at this places there il
an effort being made to have post office, which
would be great convenience.
The farmers have about finished harvesting
as fine crop as was ever gathered in this Sec
tion of the country.
Bass fishing is all the rage, and dozens of the
splendid fish are caught every day; one man,
Mr.. Jacob Mclaughlin, succeeded in catching
thirty very fine ones on Tuesday last they
were all caught with hook and line.

August Magazines.

Peterson's Magazine for August is q
splendid number, and opens with fine steel
plate engraving, entitled "The Wedding
Ring" which is followed by beautiful colored
fashion-plate, and large number of pattens
for fancy work. The literary matter will great
ly interest the ladies, and is just the kind for
the summer months. The price is only 80
year, and Is one of the best magazines In the
country for the ladies. Address Charles J :.
Peterson, No. BOG Chestnut Street, Philadelphia.
The August number of "Ballou's Maga-
zine'' is on our table. The leading illustrrted
article is from the pen of the author of "Life
In the East Indles," and gives a very interest
ing account of the sights and SCIENCES in
Persia. The poetry is usually good, and
many other things combine TO make 1t a fret
class number.

Mill Robbed. = On Friday night last
some persons entered Barnett's mill,
near this town, and stole the flour made
from five bushels of wheat. Three
bushels belonged to Mr.. Thos. j. Stuart

of hay ladders to reach the second story
window, when they removed the sash

Runaway.-On Wednesday last Geo. A.
Rouse, of this place, had an unpleasant
experience. While driving from the
Juniata bridge into Duncannon he ar
rived alongside the railroad just as a
freight train came along. His horse be-
came frightened and started to run, but
George managed to stop the animal by
pulling him up to the fence. The result
was very sudden getting out of the
driver, breaking of the shafts, and
harness, some slight wounds to thehorse
and scattering of the palings of Mr..
Hochlander's fence. 1t was fortunate
termination to what promised to be a
very bad accident. This was his second
runaway that day.

What the Marshal of New York Says.

The following Endorsement will be of inter-
est to many who have not yet tested these es-
sential aids to the full development of the
speed of a trotter - Benton's Speed Accelera-
tors-the price of which has been reduced to
SO per pair or S5 for two pairs
OFFICE OF PATRICK DAILY, City Marshal,
New York, June II, 1878.
Wilbur @. Benton, Esq, Brownstown, Ind.
Dear Sir have given your Speed Acceera-
tors thorough test, single, double, attached
them to the reins, to the saddle, overdraw and
check-reln. In my judgment they are the
most excellent things ever invented to produce
speed and comfort for horses.
Horsemen and humanitarans have for years
sought to invent attachments for horses'
mouths, the former looking principally to
speed, the latter seeking relief for the horse
from the strain of checks, and bits on the
mouth. The Accelerators accomplish both, for
they remove the permanent strain of checks
and bits from the mouth and head of the horse
by imparting the proper elasticity, which the
horse feels Immediately, and improves at once
in style and speed. Owners of horses, whether
trotters, roadsters, coach or business horses,
should use them. Any horseman who gives
your Accelerators trial will not only indorse
what say, but recommend them to every one.
owning horses.
Hoping you will sncceed in establishing what
firmly believe to be the best thing ever de-
vised for horses, is the wish of one thoroughly
convinced of their usefulness.
Yours truly, hvt
