hard substance, experienced . simple frae-
ture of the left ShOuldcr-b blade The sufferer
was brought to his home in this place cou-

-PrOthCnOtary O'DOnnell and Sheriff Py-
an are both Democrats. OF course or they
would not now be holding the responsible
positions to which each does credit. But the
fact that their political views do not run in
diverse channels proved no sufficient induce
ment to deter them from betting on the result
of the Ohio election. lt was new hat and
the BTothOnOtaTy lost. the sequel Is that
eX-SheriH BaUmCr bought the hat on the
PrOthOnotary'S order, sent it by express to
Sheriff Ryan, and everything proved salts

the hat were pasted one Of the .JOhnStOWn

Shorty" Lane is the name of a man
who twenty-Odd years ago drove hack be
tween EbenSburG and WiimOTe. over the
plank road. for the then firm of Thompson
& Hamilton. One of the horses which con
Stitutcd his team was an exceedingly frac-
tiOus anhnal-sO fTactiOus in point of fact,
that ''ShOrty, ~ who Is no more than five feet
in height was utterly unable to harness him
to the hack, but depended for the perform
auce of that feat on the services of ''BiaCk
Sam Then, once haTneSSed, that paTticU-
lar horse made the round trip hence to Viii
more and back before being relieved of his
leathem suit, for il appears there was no
'Black sam at the WilmOre end of the line.
Well shorty now lives in the neighbOr-
hood of WlmOre, and the beginning OF the
present week paid us a visit, and to say that
he wasn't looking well would be to falsify
the truth.

night four chickens of fancy breed We're

of the loss next morning pOcket-bOOk was
found inside the coop, which, of course, had
been dropped by the thief. When it was
opened il was found TO contain sixteen dol

lord mentioned the loss of his chickens and
the finding of the pOclet-bOok to three or
four persons who were in his h1T-TGOm at the
time. One Of these soon after started mp
