Masked Burglars Stab a Young Lady and
Escape.

At the residence of Henry Hottenstine,
in Pottsgrove twp, Berlts Co., a scene was
enacted on Monday night that very much
resembled murder. The family, consisting
of father, mother, several sons and daugh-
ters retired for the night at about twenty
minutes past eight. They had small dog
which is generally left in the kitchen dur
ing the night, but Monday night he was
left in the dining-room. The family had
not been up stairs more than ten minutes
when the dog set up terrible barking in
the room below.
Not thinking that anything was wrong,
one of the daughters, named Salie, started
down stairs to let the dog out of the room.
When she opened the stair door leading
into the dining-ro room she was confronted by
three young men, one of whom Immediate
ly knocked the lamp out of her hand, and
stabbed her twice in the leg above the knee,
cutting two ugly gashes about six inches
long. She at once began to scream and
started up stairs, bolting the deor after her.
Instead of the would-be murderers de-
camping they tried their best to get up
stairs, but the bolted door debarred their
further progress. The family up stairs in
the meantime made free use of their lungs
and the cry of "murder" rang out on the
night air. H. s. Daub, of Pottstown, and
Daniel Bornesman, of Limerick, who were
spending the evening at a house about a
quarter of mile distant, and others hear
ing the terrible cry at once went to the
rescue. When near the house they called
to know what was the matter, when the
answer, Help, for Gods sake, some one
is in the house trying to murder us %
They needed no further entreaty, but at
once made for the house. Arriving there,
they found that the rascals had escaped
1t is supposed that they had seoreted them
selves in the cellar some time during the
day, and when the family had retired they
proceeded to carry out their villainous de-
signs, whatever they may have been, per-
haps robbery or even murder. Miss Hot
tenstine says that she distinctly recognized
her assailant and knows him we'll.

Tragic End of a Stolen Ride.

When the Atlantic express, which
reaches Harrisburg about II o'clock P. NJ, :,
was passing Huntingdon on Saturday even
ing week, young man whose name we
understand to be Kerwick, boarded the
train between the mail and express cars,
for the purpose of stealing ride. AS the
whistle was blown for Mount Vernon he
attempted to alight before the station
was reached in order to avoid discovery.
Owing to the darkness he failed to see
freight car standing on the adjoining track,
the corner Of which struck him and hurled
back under the wheels of the train. His
awful shrek of agony was heard distinctly
by the passengers. When picked up it
was discovered that in addition to a deep
hole in his side made by the corner of the
freight car one of his legs was cut off.
The accident occurred between Z and
o'clock P. NJ, and death followed at 4
o'clock Sunday morning. We are inform
ed that the young..m man belongs to highly
respectable family of Huntingdon.

considerable excitement at Newport KY,
Klein, the tramp, who outraged Mrs.
Truesdale few days since. A crowd
gathered in the neighborhood of the Jail
early to-day, but no demonstration was
made uutil six O. oclock this evening when
about twenty-five men marched through
Monmouth street to the Jail, overpowered
the jailer, knocked down two policemen

siding at 1884 north Fifteenth street. and
Joseph Perrine, of 1850 north Fifteenth
street, together with several other boys,
were rehearsing theatrical performance
yesterday morning, in which Perrine as
sumed the villains roll. During the mock
representation Perrine drew pistol upon
Fallon and pulled the trigger, the ball
lodging in his companions neck, causing
his almost instant death. Fallon's body
was removed to his late residence and Per-
rine arrested. The latter claims that he
was not aware of the weapon being loaded.

ral depression in business from various causes
among them yellow fcvcr, last summer tho
cotton goods increased in quantity and inn
proved in quality, and found ready sales Tho
chief obstacle in tho way Of success was the
scarcity OF competent operatives, but with the
aid ofa fow taken from Northern mills, n
sufficient number of young native women and
mon have bcon taught to feed and direct tho
machines. Thoy are furnished with neat
cabins in the vicinity Of the mills, and their
pay ranges from rs cents to So u day, Accord
ing to their usefulness. Tho increase of local
sales is especially noteworthy. Tho Piedmont

fifteen miles from the Piedmont Air Line, at
an altitude Of $500 feet. is m amphithoater
about three miles in long,h by ono in width.
rushes the Tallulah River, the wooded but
precipitous sides Of tho cbasm varying in
depth from 800 to 1000 feet. Tho entire
descent Of tho river, in tho course Of two
miles is 100 foot; within throo, quarters Of
mile arc five cataracts, with n total fall of
nearly 300 fcet-Ladore. forty.six; Tcmposta,
eighty~two; Hurricane, ninoty.two; Ocoana,
forty-six, and Bridal Voil, twenty Rvo.
Looking down upon thoso cataracts from tho
tremendous cliffs which overhang them, one
can scarcely believe the report of their height.
1t is only when the spectator has made bic
toilsomo way down tho cliffs to tho cdgo of
the water that he realizes their grandeur.
