ORHTUAR u.

KNoDE.-Fell asleep in Jesus, on the
morning Of June 2lst, 1878, at FrostbuIg
Md, Mrs. CATHAR1NE i. KNoDE, wife Of
Mr.. Joseph Knode, aged 90 years.
"She died as sets the morning star which
Not down behind the darkened West, nor
hides,
Obscured, amidst the tempest of the sky,
But melts away in the sunlight OF heaven"
Mrs. Knode in early life, by confession
Of faith, became member ofthe Lutheran
church, and continued a faithful and con-
sist ent member of the same to the day of
her death. Her Christian character was
beautiful, being eminently sincere and un-
assuming. Hers was a calm and steady
walking day by day in the path of duty,
not a thing Of varying moods and fitful
impulses. Her pety was humble, serious
and uniform, burning rs steady flame and
acquiring increasing brightness. She ex-
ercised a simple faith IN all the teachings
of the Bible, and her faith worked by love,
purified the heart, and overcame the
world. In the death Of Mrs. Knode the
church militant lost one of her brightest
ornaments, but the church triumphant adj
dcd one more to her palm bearing multi
tule. She will be sadly missed in the
family which the blessed, in the congrega-
ton of which she was an exemplary mem
bel, and by the large circle of friends who
sincerely loved her. But "they sorrow
NO" as those who have no hope, for she
had no fear of death. She fully realized
Christ precious to her soul. She spoke of
heaven as her home, and died in the tn
umphs of faith, and in the full hope of a
blessed immortality. She is not lost-but
gone before, and rests from her labors.
Her funeral rites were performed by the
writer, from the Lutheran church, in the
presence of a very large concourso of sor-
rowing relatives and friends, improving
the solemn occasion from the words,
Blessed are the dead who die in the
Lord, from henceforth; yes, saith the spir-
it, that they may rest from their labors,
and their works do follow them" Rev.
xiv. 49, H. c. II.

A SUPERB SPECIMEN OF SKILL

A SUPERB SPECIMEN OF SKILL
Upon visiting our Allegany Cemetery,
few days since, we were much pleas
ed, and indeed agreeably surprised to
sec the elegant and massive Monument
recently erected over the grave of Mrs.
Susanna Wright Graham. It's lands
teoe'aty-omet eethigA, beautifully proper
toned, splendidly executed and strikes
the beholder as being grand piece
of workmanship,-a fitting tribute
from a devoted husband to the memo
ory of cherished consort, who was,
throughout her life, the central at
traction of large circle Of friends
and relatives. This monument is the
largest that has even been manufac-
tured in this section of country. No
marble-worker outside of the metro
politan cities has ever before attempt
ed the erection Of such an immense
structure of its kind. It is not only
most substantial but is finished in
perfectly artistic style in every par
ticular, and unsurpassed in design and
symmetry by any thing we have ever
seen. We need scarcely add that it
is from the establishment OF Mr.. A.
E. Smenner, of Cumberland, Mary
land, whose industry, energy and bus
mess qualifications, are well known,
and who, with his corps of skilled
workmen, is certainly entitled to COM
mendation for preparing and erecting
such a magnificent specimen of work.
Our citizens, with those of the sur
rounding country, as well as visitors
should not fail to visit the cemetery
and look at this superb monument.
THE rage for dog poisoning prevails.
A number have died this week. The
following verses detail a specimen in

A CANINE FREAK.-On Sunday
last MIR. John Vogtman went into
the woods With his two dogs for
stroll. He noticed they were quite
playful, chasing each other around in
ring, when suddenly one of them
setup ahowl andbegan to performsome
very strange antics, which alarm
ed Mr.. V, who tried to quiet him
but his symptoms grew more violent
and he paid no heed to his master.
Finally he started, ran to his home,
into the house, jumped through win
dow. to avoid any one approaching
him. He then got into the stable and
endcayorea TO climb the sides to the
ceiling, jumping and bowling. Nj. V.
concluded it 5as. 70 dispatch him and
did SO. lie says he does not know
whether it Was y case of sun stroke or
hydrophobia.
In view of this freak would it not
be prudent for people to keep their
dogs off the streets during the reign Of
the dog star, for the safety of pedes-
TRANS. We would suggest to the
Mayor and Council the utility Of an
ordinance that would afford protec-
ton.

DANGER FROM DOGS.

As may be seen In another column, mo less
than seven children were bitten yesterday
by dogs. Recent facts lead every intelli.
gent observer to the conviction that Hydro.
phobia is becoraing fearfully frequent dis
ease. There were five fatal cases IN Philadel
phia since last December. There was one
in Kellyville, Delaware county, lad Of
sixteen, who was scratched on the forehead
by spitz, nine weeks ago to-day-and
died last Saturday in awful agony; another
ia our. own city thi week. For the twenty
years preceding 1860, there were only five
cases of Hydrophobia treated In the Lon
don Hospitals. In the fifteen years ending
in 1875 there were, If our mememory serves
us right, over sixty persons died in the
same hospitals Of the disease. If the dis
ease becomes any more frequent, dogs, as a
matter Of protection mus be treated as
animals dangerous 10 life. The police and
constables ought to kill every unregistered
dog, whenever met with. A dog not worth
registering Is worthless and 1t now seems
dangerous, and should die. The agony Of
the families of those children bitten 'yester-
day is lamentable, and lot of worthless
ours should not be allowed to run at large
to cause so much trouble. The city
Council should demand that the ordinance
relating to dogs should be stricly enforced.
