A number Of prominent marriages are

In our report Of the arrests of tramps
last week, for maliciously breaking q win
dow in the store Of Mr.. E. II. Snyder, we
stated from evidence given at Squire's Beck''
Office, that the tramps entered the store o.
Mr.. Snyder, before breaking the window
He informs us that the'trdfnps did not en-.
ter. and that his first knowledge of theil
presence was when the stone crashed
through the window. OF course, it was the
old dod-e of committing a crime in order tC
get arrested; but the ruse cost Mr.. Snyder
$50 or more.
Some months ago, John Alexander n
Waymart, ten miles from Honesdale, was
driviI a span of horses down a steep bill
near that place, they ran away. He wa!
thrown against rock and was instantly
killed, his neck being broken. Thursday o
last week, his son, William Alexander, lef
Carhondale to drive to Waymart, with thu
same horses. In the afternoon he was founC
lying dead in almost the same spot wher,
his father was killed, his neck being ais
broken. Some distance further on th,
wrecked wagon was discovered, and at th,
foot of a high bank one of the horses la!
dead with broken neck.
1t is astonishing to us to see how man,
people there are who buy valuable proper
ties and then neglect TO record their deed:
The law provides that all deeds shall he re
corded within six months after their date
and If this is not done they shall be void a
against subsequent purchaser for value
Some honest old farmer will find some day
when it is too late, that he has lost all hi
property by keeping his deeds locked up q
home IN order to save a small record fe,
This is certainly q false notion of economy
The law provides method to protect title
and why not avail yourselves fit, and sav
trouble and expense?

carriages are really fine and are unsurpasse
by any we have seen coming from the cit,
J. Go and do likewise.
