Z Rat StOry.-A lady in this borough
had a bag of yeast cakes hanging in
such manner that she thought them
safe from the rats. One evening, hear
ing a noise in that vincinity, she went
up to ascertain the cause, and found it
was occasioned by the dropping of
meathook on the floor, lot of these
hooks having been put near there while
not in use. On further investigation it
was found that the rats had hung one of
the hooks from a nail above, and then
by hanging on others had commenced a
chain which they continued until it
gave them access to the bag of rising
cakes. The truth of this statement is
youched for by several parties who saw
the chain while the rats were making it
and after it was completed.

Does He Belong to Perry Co. . The
Huntingdon NesOs says: On Friday af-
ternoon last, Robert B. Myton, well
known farmer, who resides on the Sha-
vers creek road, five miles from Peters
burg, nearly met his death by the blow
of a hatchet inflicted by a young man
named Andrew Weaver. We learn that
the young man came to Mr.. Myton's
house on the Wednesday previous in
search of work, which he obtained. He
was furnished with room in the house
and 1t was not long before he tried to
put in execution the plot he had con-
ceived to murder Mr.. Myton for his
money, which he had seen him have in
his possession. On Thursday, it is be-
lieved, he watched several opportunities
to find Mr.. Myton alone, but failed. On
Friday aweek ,he awaited the time when
they went to curry the horses in the
barn, which is some distance from the
house, and as Mr.. Myton had his back
turned to him, and was STOPPING down
to curry the horses leg, he struck him a

Junlata County We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week.
Miss Ann Sellers, while walking along
the pavement in McAllisterville one day
last week, was stricken with paralysis.
She is still in an unconscious state.
On Tuesday morning fine doe ran
into the barn yard of Mr.. Beashore, in
Milford township. Mr.. B. went for it,
but the deer was not willing to be cap
tured at that time and started off at
break speed. Mr.. B. followed after,
and came upon it on the ice on Rohm's
mill dam, and captured it. The deer
had, very likely, been chased from the
mountain by dogs and worried out so
that it had to give up and allow itself to
be captured.-Democrat and Register.
On Wednesday morning between 4
and O'Clock an attempt was made by
thieves to enter the residence of DIR. w.
j. Rice, of Port Royal. Mrs. Carver, of
Perry county, sister to DIR. r., who is
visiting her brother, heard the thief at
work trying to open the front door, but
could not think what occasioned the
noise until the villains succeeded in
opening the door, when she gave the
alarm, and the thief was frightened
away before he could secure any goods.
On Saturday morning last Mr.. Uriah
Guss and his son Cloyd, who resides in
Turbett township, went out into a field
on his farm with sled to get some
wood After loading the sled Cloyd
drove back to the house with it, dis.
tance of about half q mile. After he
had started away Mr.. Guss cut down
tree, and was seen doing so by Ner Me-
10y who was across the Tuscarora creek
opposite to where Mr.. Guss was. Cloyd
Guss returned with the sled in about
half an hour and found his father fasten-
ed by the limbs of the tree and standing
on his feet with his body bent forward
and down and his head near his feet. He
made haste and liberated his father; but
alas, he was dead, with his neck, back,
several ribs and an arm and leg broken.
The son then made an alarm and Sc
cured the assistance of Mrs. William
Kennedy, by whose aid the dead body
of Mr.. Guss was placed on the sled and
taken to his home. 1t is thought that
when the tree was cut off, a large limb
prevented it from going clear to the
ground and that Mr.. Guss then cut the
limb off, when 1t fell and caused his
death as aforementioned.
