An Associate Judge is to be elected this
fall, and already persons are putting
forward their favorites. Among those
we have heard mentioned for the office
is our townsman, Mr. William Grier
If the democrats should select him as
their candidate, the republicans would
be compelled to put forward strong
man to oppose him, as Mr.. Grier is
not only popular man, but one well
fitted for the Office.

9 eHurt by Storm.-On Friday afternoon
MIR. Zimmerman rlsiding on the Nelson
farm in Centre township, ran out to
close the large barn doors as storm
was coming. The wind however threw
the doors with such force that Mr.. u.
was thrown quite a distance, and knock
ed senseless, and was otherwise badly
bruised. He was taken to the house,
and DIR. Strickler was speedily sent for,
but 1t was some time before he showed
signs of life. He is now in a fair way to
recover. The door was driven several
feet into the barn floor by the force of
the wind, and two other hands were
knocked down, but were not seriously
hurt, though one of them, Jesse Clouser,
was considerably bruised around his
knees. The storm was of short duration,
and we hear of no other damage.

Cumberland County.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week:
The hay crop throughout this Valley,
both in quantity and quality, this season
Is unprecedented The weather h as
been highly propitious, and we are sa fe
in saying that there is not ton of
spoiled or inferior hay in the Valley.
In consequence of puddlers being
shipped from the mill at Fairview to Mr..
McCormick's mill at Harrisburg, where
the puddlers are on O strike, the pud-
ders on Thursday last at the former
place shut down. On Friday the plate
mill was also closed, and the entire force
are on q strike. Over 800 men are out
of employment.
Mrs. John o. Conner, daughter of
Mr.. John Arney, was bitten in the hand
by their house dog on Friday last. She
was feeding the dog, and had placed q
plate containing food on the ground and
when in the act Of picking up the plate
the dog bit her as above stated. Mr..
Arney Immediately procured gun and
shot the dog. Carlisle g Volunteer"
On Friday last, at Pine Grove Fur
mace, Jacob Sewers, a tender, while in
the act of drawing the molten metal
from the stack, slipped and plunged with
both feet into the stream of liquid iron.
At the time he had on pair of much
worn boots which instantly admitted
the white hot metal to his flesh, burning
both feet SO badly that it was feared am
putation would be necessary.
Several days ago the leg of Lewis
Irwin, of Carlisle, became sore and con-
tinued to get worse until it was found
necessary to take off the limb. Mr..
Irwin being poor man, but possessor
of great nerve, determined to save a
doctors bill by being his own surgeon,
and at once successfully performed the
necessary operation. We are pleased to
learn that the limb, at the place of am
putation, is healing and he will soon be
able to get around again by the aid of a
cane-and his cork-leg. eg.-Mirror.

Leg Cut or by Reaper The York
Dispatch says; On Thursday afternoon
frightful accident occurred on the
Black Rock road, about four and half
miles from Hanover, to child of Mr..
Horn. 1t seems that Mr. Horn was
cutting grass with reaper, and was just
about finishing up, when the child asked
permission to get a flower that was in
front of the knives Of the reaper. Mr..
Horn told the child to stand out of the
way until he made another cut, when
the flower could be procured. The child,
which was abo ut seven or eight years of
age, refused to listen and ran in front of
the reaper and rushed upon the knives.
One of its legs was entirely severed, and
the other so frightfully mangled that it
will have to be amputated.

A New Insect Pest A new pestiverous
insect has made its appearance in the
southern part of Chester county, and is
making sad havoc with some of the
corn fields. 1t is a beetle from to of
an inch in length, brown in color, has
long wire-like proboscis, and body
adorned with wings, which it uses for
carrying itself from one point to another,
although its depredations are committed
beneath the surface of the earth. This
little pest buries itself under the ground,
and with its proboscis probes the tender
shoots of corn shortly after making
their appearance above the ground, and
as a result of which the leaves begin to
wither and soon die. This pest is en-
tirely new in that section of country,
and the farmers are in a quandary as how
to get rid of the unwelcome visitor.

Floater Found,

The body of an unknown white man, evil
IDENTIFY about forty years old, was found
early this morning in the river, lying over
a chain attached to the steamer Natchez, at
the foot OF Ludlow street. The man seemed
to have been in the water several days, and
was very much decomposed.
The deceased was we'll built man, with
broad shoulders and lower extremities
rather light. He had dark gray eyes, and
dark hair turning to gray. His upper teeth
were gone but his lower were in pretty fair
condition. His clothing, consisting of a
dark gray coat and vest, pants of dark
material, white shirt and undershirt, new
pink suspenders, white cotton socks and
slippers tied over the instep with shoe
string.
He had on his left arm, between the ell.
bow and wrist a star marked in India ink
about an inch in diameter On his person
were found common pair of spectacles a
two-bladed horn-handled knife pocket
comb, two Newport ferry tickets, two
small keys, and a pocket-book containing a
ten-cent silver piece.

The Inclined Plane Accident.

There was something of a jar at the High
land House Inclined Plane at II O'Clock
last evening, but nothing in the nature of
great accident to justify the panicky feel
ing that was produced. This was due rath-
er to ''what-might-have-b feeling
than what really did happen. Two repre-
sentatives of the STAR stood on the upper
platform and witnessed the whole affair.
The first intimation that anything was
wrong was heavy grating noise caused by
the slipping of the brakes. A moment
later and the cars sped each to its destina-
ton, one Upward and the other downward
like lightning, striking with a heavy jar
and crash. Passengers were tumbed one
over another and the excitement was in
tense in the cars and at both ends of the
line. In the ascending car were three gen.
tlemen, who were badly frightened but not
hurt.
The descending car was filled with passen-
gers, several of whom were somewhat
bruised, but no one was seriously hurt.
Mr. Ed. Roth, of the St. Nicholas, was
thrown violently TO the floor and suffered
injury to the knee. Mr.. Will. King was
somewhat injured about the head, Mr..
Simon suffered wound on the ankle, and
two or three ladies tainted.
The cause of the mshap was an acci-
dent to one of the brakes rendering it in
operative for the time.
The engineer says he felt something
wrong and reversed his engine, but without
the desired effect, as the car could not be
stopped. The test was terrible one on the
ropes, but they were not broken. The reg
ular rope was somewhat strained, but had
it given way with the shock. the safety rope
would have held the cars in place. Per-
sons on the hill at the time walked down,
and the work of repairing was at once com
menced. Everything was in order this
morning for a start at the regular time, but
it was found that one of the ropes needed
taking up a little and this was done, caus-
ing only slight delay.
The cars are now running with their ac-
cnstomed regularity, and even nervous peo-
pie may continue to patronize them with
out any greater risk of a shaking up than
they encounter by any other method of
travel.
Our incline planes have been singularly
free from accidents of all kinds, even such
as that which occurred last night, and
statistics of accidents in this city for the
past six years would show that inclined
plane travel is ten to one safer than car
riage riding. In other words you are ten
times as liable to injury by taking buggy
ride as by going to the hill-tops in the in
clined plane cars.
MessrS. Lane & Bodley are now about
completing an automatic brake, which will
stop car at any point on the track in case
of accident. This will insure as near per,
feet safety as it is possible to secure in any
method of transit.

A Big Find.

Officer Hennekes, Of Bremen-street Sta
ton, made big find the other morning.
He was walking along Twelfth street near
the canal, and while passing Gilpin d Co.
lumber yard noticed an old gray-hared
man lying asleep on a lumber pile. He
was about to pass on, when one Of the em-
ployes of Glpin g. Co, notified him that
there was big wallet lying on the ground.
He picked it up and found that it was
filed With money. Hennekes took it to the
book-keeper of Gilpin 4 Co., and cuuiitted
the pile, which amounted to exactly Sc, 2l0.
The money was put in the safe, and shortly
after Hennekes walked up Elm street. Near
the central gate of Washington Park he no.
tlced gray-haired man, the same one who
had been in the lumber-yard, striking lis
forehead and seeming to be in great worry
Officer Hennekes questioned him, when
the man told him he had been discharged
the day before from Betts-street Hospital,
and that somebody had picked his pocket.
Hennekes then took the man to Gilpin &
Co., where, after the man gave absorption
of nearly every bill in the pocketbook, his
pile was returned to him. The happy old
man rewarded the employe who first found
the pocket-book, with 300 bill Officer
Hennekes refused to accept a reward

Mrs. MaIaprop's own Brother.

A certain colonial legion, now extinct,
possessed at one time an officer who
would have well passed for own brother
to Mrs. Malaprop. His knowledge of the
meaning of many English and other
words and phrases was intnitesimally
limited, yet his conversation was always
grandiloquent and interspersed with
quotations or rather Interpretations. The
iest-book of the mess teemed with his
quaint, absurd sayings; some true some
fathered upon him. This one, however, was
recorded as genuine. His son became vic
tim to the tender passion, and while the
spooning was at its hottest, s. "of
ours" meets Malaprop pere, and says:
"Old fellow, is it true that son Joe is en-
gagged to Miss Dash? Every one talks
so.o at matters but little, Capt. s."
replies Malaprop, pompously, "what peo-
pie talk. There are always so many
cunards flying about that it is difficult
to believe anything. Whatever | hear, |
swallow with dose of salts. Joe is not
affianced. Miss Dash has certainly en-
ameled him. He has put her other
shooters horse di combat; but no be-
trothal is yet on the tapes. That will
come, I suppose, of course; when, /
hardly yet know-but post-mortem, |
fancy"

DeEECK's ALLEGED DEFICIT,
fhe Accounts Said to be Short Nearly
$4,000.

1t has been mentioned several times
heretofore that Colonel Wm. L. DeBeCk,
Ex-Mayor Moore's Private Secretary, was
hort in lis accounts to a considerable
lmount. Since Mayor Jacob has been in
pffice he has been waiting patiently for
DeBeck to square up his books This he
has failed to do. In the meantime an ex-
pert has been employed, and his examina-
lion of the stub books is said to have re-
Tealed the fact that there is a shortage of
nearly $4,000. About $1,000 OF this ex-
lends back to Hanson's term, who was Sec
retary under Johnston and who is now
Secretary of the Police Board.
The Board of Revision-Mayor Jacob,
City Solicitor Kumler and the President of
The City CounCil-met in executive ses-
lion last evening, when the experts report
vas received. 1t was resolved to make q
demand upon DeBeck again for his receipt
book, and if he refuses to give it up then
The matter will be brought before the Com
mon Council and a committee OF investi
sation appointed.
