Thrown from Horse. - On Saturday
evening a son of John Stone, of Wheat
field twp, started to Dellville on horse
back. Subsequently the animal was
found beside the road without rider,
and search for the boy resulted in find
ing him nearly mile distant in an in
sensible condition, he having been
thrown from the horse. On Sunday
evening the lad was still alive, but re-
mains unconscious. The doctor says
concussion of the brain is the trouble
and the probabilities are that it will re-
suit fatally. a4f.

Charged with Horse Stealing. = The
readers of the Patriot will probably re-
member the arrest of one Israel Fox, a
little over two years ago, for stealing a
horse and buggy in the lower end of the
county, and of his having been shot, at
Lebanon, by officer Riley Ringler, while
attempting to escape after having
jumped out of the buggy on the streets
of that place, and endeavoring to make
his escape. Fox, after being wounded,
was secured, placed in the Lebanon Jail,
and we have been informed was tried in
that county for other acts of crooked
ness and sent to the eastern penitentiary
for two years and two months. He was
only recently released from the peniten-
tiary. Last evening he was again ar
rested by Detectives Abe Roat and
Reese, of Mayor Patterson's force ,charg-
ed with the larceny of horses, and was
committed by Mayor Patterson to the
county prison for hearing. Fox had
two horses in his possession, but from
where they were stolen the reporter
could not learn last evening. = Harris

Run off.-On Monday morning our
friends j. B. Hartzell and d. H. Spots
started on tour through the county
selling tobacco, segars, &c. At Millers-
town they hitched their beast at Shu-
man Miller's Union Hotel. Being
driven with breast strap, no reins
were used to hold up the animals head.
The flies being troublesome, the horse
maneuvered about to get rid of them,
and in the act slipped the bride off his
head and shot away lively, down Sun
bury street to an alley, out the alley to
Bridge street, where Adg and tramp
stopped him. In making the turn the
buggy was upset and up again almost
in the very same breath, but the top
was smashed, the box broken and other
wise damaged in the racas.--NeaDport

Sudden Death.-After part of our edi-
ton was printed last Monday we received
a dispatch saying that George Brown,
of Newport, had dropped dead in the
streets of that place." This was printed
in the balance of our papers. 1t seems,
however, the account was not altogether
correct. Mr.. Brown was not feeling
well, but had eaten his dinner and then
passed into bedroom adjoining the
dining-room. In a minute or so after
wards his wife heard call and hasten
ed to him, but found him dead. He had
been troubled with heart disease for
several years.

William Martin, alias Buffalo Bill, es-
capped from Jail one night last week.
BY cutting a hole in the floor of his cell
he got into the cellar, and from thence
into the yard. Here he lifted plank
walk, (which some say three ordinary
men could hardly have lifted, and, set
ting it against the Jail wall, climbed
over and landed on McClintic's shed,

On Thursday week, the lightning
struck the barn of John Musser, near
McAlisterville. The fluid was caught
by the rod at one end of the barn which
melted the point then run the length of
the barn passing two other points and
went down at the opposite end of the
barn from where it struck into the
ground The stroke knocked down
two horses in the stable; they were
lying when Mr.. Musser came to the
barn to see what damage had been done.
His son Thaddeus, who had been at
the barn during the time, was so much
affected that he could not assist his
father in relieving the horses. The
escape of man and horses was miracu-
lous. 'H

was killed by an excursion train east on
Tuesday night last, about ten O'clock
Isaac had been intoxicated and was
sleeping on the track O short distance
east of the station. The engineer of
the train did not notice him in time to
stop the train until about five cars had
passed over him. He was terribly cut
up, one leg being cut off above the
knee and the other at the foot. He was
removed to his residence, where he died
some time after without regaining con-
seriousness. Isaac was highly esteemed
by his comrades and all who knew him,
and was not in the habit of drinking to
excess; and this exceptional occasion
cost him his life. He leaves a wife and

The following is an abstract of the proceed
ings had at the 8. s. Convention held in th
place last week:
The Morning herald., 1878-11-21

No word of love had ever passed between
Philip Eversleigh and Cecil Clayton, though
tbeY had been thrown much In each others
piliable ltiisut, pe unconsciously led to say
And Philip landing there, too!
81 am girl who will see you taken care
OF" she said, quickly, and beckoned two
gaping svryants. ''Tom, Stephen, assist
this poor fellow to the kitchen, and give
Him nourishment Let the doctor be sent
for Immediately, to attend his wounds"
Ned Jasper kept his eyes fixed on her,
but did not resist the servants as they led
him away.
The instant the guests were gone, Cecil
excused herself to Philip, who hngereu be-
nial, and sought her father in the library.

But the proud John Clayton was not in
the library, nor indeed in the house. He

CHAPTER v.

CLARK AND THE CoNvICT-A DIABoLlcAL ACT
LOCKED IN WITH THE FLAMES.
From the servants quarters Cecil went
directly out into the garden.
She walked up to Clark and confronted
him, demanding in ringing tones:
"Jared Clark what have you done with
my father?" ''
CLARK started, and bit his lip. -aa. =
The convict stood stock still, while the Of
ficer stared stupidly. ~.
"Whyf such a question, Miss Claytonr
asked Clark, blandly. ~
Cecil eyed him haughtily. a
"You know why, sir-because he has been
missing since last night, and just before the
discovery of his absence was seen in your
company"
"Missing! repeated Clark, as if doubling
that he had heard Alright.
The heiress stamped her little foot angrily,
and her features became rigid.
"What have you done with my father"
she again demanded. w ~
Clark appeared nervous and uncomfort-
able.
"Why my dear Miss Clayton, how should
I know where he isl" 49,
"As the last person seen in his company
last night you should be able to tell where
he went, or where you left him. He did not
return to the house." y a1 ;9hr
The piercing eyes remained riveted upon
him. He did not finch.
Il assure you, know nothing Of your
respected parent We parted last even
inc at the chestnut beside the lake.
Something has undoubtedly happened him,
but really I do not see that ! can be held
responsible =,

When Jared Clark declared ignorance Of
John Clayton's whereabouts, he spoke truly.
John Clayton out Of the way, Clark's purse
would suffer. .
he did not deny that he had conversed
with the old man--that was evidently known.
Had he been sure Of his ground, he would

The Small Iox Controversy.

On last Wednesday, at the request of some
of the county and city officials, the children OF
Mr. Harman and MIR. Woolf, who as l have
previously stated hal suffered from small pox,
were brought to this city and exhibited to 4
number of persons. The following named ply
sicians have seen these cases: DR.. George NJ.
SternberS, Major and Surgeon, L. 5. A; Dr.
Baker, Assistant Surgeon, u. = y: DIR. D. II.
Day, De- " G.. Blalock and DIR. b. +. Burch:
These gentlemen all unhesitatingly pronounced
the CASES small pox. MIR. II. y. Isaacs, MIR.
and Mrs. Neil, Mrs. Welch, MIR. John Justice,
MIR. Bentley and Others, all of whom have suf,
fered from the disease, say It is small pox, and
large number of persons who have had expe
rience in the disease, have unanimously render
ed verdict of small pox.
These are the cases that Doctors McCurdy.
Goodwin and Boyd call chicken pOx. These
men complained in their purile report that l
charged them with Incompetence. said
would leave the public to judge. Let it do so.
So far rs authorities" are quoted, to the
minds of al familiar with the disease, they all
show that these children had small pox; Much
of the testimony of the persons making the
atfidayits was suppressed 1t did not suit them.
Moreover. these men exhibited dread Of the
disease when they visited these children the
doors had to be left open, and they assiduously
inhaled the fumes Of carbolic :cld While IN the
room. Strange that chicken pox should excite
such a dread in the minds Of men with such
vast experience
And in the face Of such evidence, let ME ask
the public, what would have been the result
had these men or any of them been called to
see the cases at the first. The result can be
easily foretold; an epidemic would have
swept over the valley; emigration would have
! been checked the city of Walla Walla wotld
have been deserted as it was few years ago
and many persons now alive and well, would bs
in their graves. J. +. BINGHAM, NJ. ".
