and, to add to the terror, the railings In
the front of the gallery gave way, pre-
cipltating the occupants on the heads of
those below.
The ministers present endeavored to
allay the panic by calling out;
" For Gods sake keep quiet, there Is
nothing wrong" but their voices could
not he heard for the cries and groans
which came from hundreds of voices
Strong men seemed to have lost all self
control and joined in the mad rush from
the fancied danger women were either
trampled upon or fell fainting from ter
ror, and children were unthought of in
the general melee.
Not until the building had almost
been emptied and the people realized that
at no time had there been any cause for
alarm, did they begin to think on the eff
fects of the panic, and on an examina-
ton being made 1t was found that many
were seriously injured, although, for
tunately, no lives were lost. The ma
jority of the congregation were from the
country districts, and left for home as
soon as possible. Amongst the injured
were the following Mrs. Weagly, arm
broken, and otherwise injured Mr..
Richardson, of Smithsburg, Maryland,
trampled upon the arm and injured;
Mr.. Shank, of Smithsburg, al rm broken /;
Miles Comar, shoulder bone and several
ribs broken Mrs. Mers and two sons,
severely injured Rev. s. w. Owen, of
Hagerstown, badly bruised Henry G.
Fink, seriously hurt; lady, name un-
known, taken to the hotel, where she
now lies in a critical condition. The sad
affair has created intense excitement in
the village. The damage to the church
is estimated at $500.

Panic Stricken.

A special dispatch from Waynesboro',
Pa, dated November 26, says: A panic
occurred in the Lutheran church at this
place last night, which resulted in seri-
GUS injuries to a number of persons
Both the floor and galleries were densely
packed, while scores of people outside
struggled to gain admittance. Shortly
before seven o'clock bench in the
church broke, making cracking noise,
and at once some one in the congrega-
ton called out, the building is falling.'
A scene of the widest excitement fol-
lowed, the screams of women and chill
dren mingled with the shouts and excla-
nations of men. A general rush was
made for the doorways, which were soon
blocked up by the frightened crowd,

taken sick on the cars and put her head
out Of the window for relief While In this
position she dropped her false teeth out of
her mouth, and as the train couldn't stop
just there she was obliged to gum 1t to Har-
rsburg. Her husband sent telegram to
the nearest station where the jaw.extension
was dropped, and IL is to be hoped the lady
may yet be happy in securing them.
NoRwIoH, Conn, November 23.--While
little girl named Pierce was being pun
ished by her teacher in one of the schools
here fortnight ago she attempted to back
away and run home. The teacher caught
the girls head between the door and the
jamb, inflicting severe bruises. The hurt
was not believed to be serious by any one
though the child was taken out Of school.
Last week she died and post mortem ex-
animation by Montvile physician, is said
to have revealed clots of blood on the
brain believed to have been the results from
the accident. There is good deal of ex-
element in the district.

An Iowa Town Destroyed,

CEDAR RAPIDS, November 20. = The
town of Bondalia, Fayette county, be-
tween Cedar Rapids and Portville, was
burned yesterday. The fire broke out in
the rear of saloon owned by G. III. Sill
man and spread rapidly. But one bust
ness structure remains. The postofIice
was also burned. There was but little
insurance on any of the property burned
and many will be financially ruined.
The fire is supposed to have been started
by rival saloon-keeper living in the
upper section of the town, and the in
dignation runs high.

WHAT THE BRITISH did with their
eottons the French, it seems, are doing
with their silks. The Manchester men
exported calico prints, which were SO
heavily sized to increase the weight that
the fabric upon being used would be
found rotten and worthless. Now it
transpires that the Lyons makers of
silks steep their goods in some chemical
preparation to give them greater body,
and the steamship companies have been
obliged to refuse fabrics thus prepared
because of their liability to spontaneous
combustion. In the meanwhile our
native manufacturers at Patterson and
elswhere are constantly improving the
quality of their products.

The Bribery Cases.

A bitter Legal fight took place last
week over the bribery cases at Harris
burg. After three days argument on
different quibbles, the indictment against
Salters was quashed on the ground that
twenty-four jurors voted on the bill
while the record showed that but twenty
three were sworn.
The course taken by the defense will,
in the public estimation amount to a
plea of guilty, for if innocent they would
prefer to have fair trial rather than to
escape temporarily on mere techni-
cality.

SAMUEL J. NELL, of Washington
county, died in 1879, leaving considera-
BILE property, which his wife claimed, as
he was an illegitimate child. The act of
1888 provides that in the absence of
known competent heirs the estate goes
to the widow. Mrs. Thompson, mother
of the deceased, claims the property
under the act of 1855, which says that
illegitimate children shall be known by
the name of their mother, and that they
shall have capacity to inherit from each
other. The auditor appointed decided
in favor of the mother, and the wife
appealed.
