Change of Position.

Mr.. W. P. Jewett, the courteous and very
competent clerk of the State land,department,
has resigned his position in that Office. Mr..
Jewett has been in the State land department
for nearly six years, and proved himself de-
clded!y superior in the place. When the bill
reducing his salary was under consideration q
few days ago in the Senate, several Senators
paid him high compliments, and as the result
his salary was restored to its accustomed fig.
ures. As he was sure of retaining his position
at least three years longer, his resignation was
in no way a forced matter, and he left 60 ac-
cept position in the land department. of the
st. Paul Sioux City road. That company is
to be congratulated upon securing his.services.

A Handsome Income For An

ENERGETIC LADY OR GENTLEMAN.
The Ohio Scale Works of Cincinnati
have just patented and are now in
Producing to the public Handsomely
finished Family Scale, an article
that has always been needed iii every
household, and in communication
addressed to the publishers of this
paper the proprietors ask us to refer
them to some reliable party, to intro
duce it for them to the people of this
County. 1t is very seldom that a
new article steps SO suddenly into uni
versal favor. House-keepers are loud
in its praise, it is always ready. there
are no weights to get lost or to be
hunted up, it is reliable, and will not
get out of order. The description of
them is Il handsome base surmounted
by column in which works II spiral
spring so scientifically adjusted rs to
weigh anything up TO twelve pounds
with perfect accuracy, on the top of
the column is the platform on which
the articles to be weighed are placed,
and they have an adjustable indicator
so that you can take the tare of any
vessel you may use in weighing,
giving you the exact net weight.
House-keepers at once see their value
in weighing fruits, sugars and other
ingredients used in preserving, cook
ing etc, or in testing the weights OF
purchases from Others.
The scales are made Of Brass, are
highly polished and are finished in Il
skillful manner. They are very at
tractive and take the eye of every one
who secs them.
Ii seems to us that nearly every
family in this county will want one,
and is certainly rare opportunity for
some smart and energetic party to pick
up quite nice little income during
| the next few months. The Company
| has agents in other counties who are
easily making from IS 90 to S. 90 pel
| day selling them, and we would re
commend parties in need of employ
ment to drop the OHIO SCALE

Gtecn pcns-.Half BusheI . par.

Is there anybody who does not en-
joy well cooked green peas, fresh
from the garden-a good many of
theni-and very often, too? They are
nourishing food, and healthful also,
ii well cooked, and not swallowed
with the skin or seed-coat unbroken.
They are one of the most certain,
easily grown and earliest productions
of the garden, and can be had in success
sion most of the summer. When our
family is large we always plan for

from some time in May, according to
the season, up to the end of July, and
often well into August. The ground
producing them is used for second
crop - celery, or something else.
Selecting as dry and warm spot as
can be allotted to them, and applying
fair quantity of well rotted yard
manure, we SOW OH the same day at
least two varieties, in rows, as soon as
the snow is gone and the ground can
be worked without packing. A good

BUi'Ding Oil.

From the Willhmsport Gazette and Bulletin
Saturday last between twelve and
one O'Clock, when the Empire freight
east was passing that point on the
Philadelphia and Erie railroad where
the ice gorge occurred recently, about
five miles above Farransville, the sud
den breaking of an axle caused the
wrecking of an oil tank car. Imme-
diately on the breaking of the tank
the oil took fire, and in few minutes
II terrible conHagmtion was raging.
The black smoke rolled up in dense
volumes darkening the atmosphere,
and at times the flames assembled to a
height Of nearly one hundred feet.
Word was at once communicated to
the Office of Superintendent Gucker in
this city, and he hastcned to the scene
Of the burning train with the wreck
ing car ana II strorg force of men to
clear the track as soon rs possible. In
the meantime superintendent West.
fall, at Remove, was informed Of the ac-
cidcnt, and he dispatched wrecling
car and men from that point to assist
in removing the obstruction. When
the latter arrived on the ground the
rear portion Of the disabled train was
hauled back to the siding at North
Point, where, after arrival, two more
oil ears took fire and were e'consumcd
on the siding, In The meantime the
wrecling force from VI Niiliamsport had
arrived and commenced pulling out
the damaged cars and dUnping them
over the bank. The trucks were con-
sumed, Of course. letting the huge oil
tanks down on the aXles, which COM
pletely obstructed the track. AS these
heated tanks were hauled out and
rolled overthe bank the contents would
take fire and for several minutes the
flames and black smoke would roll
upward in dense volumes.
Eleven oil tank cars were destroyed
at the point where the accident first
occurred, which, with the two con
sumed at North Poiit make thirteen
altogether. The intense heat caused
by the burning oil warped the rails
badly, destroyed the ties completely,
and rendered it necessary TO relay
about three hundred feet of track be-
fore the waiting trains could pass.
This was done so speedily that the pas
senger train east was not delayed over
an hour, reaching WilliamspOrt soon
after midnight. Fortunately no one
was Injured, though there was great
danger from the exploding oil tanks.
and the greatest caution had 10 be OBJ
served in handling them.
As these oil tank ears carry from
5000 to 4,400 gallons Of oil, it is safe to
say that each car averaged 1000 gall
Ions, making the total amount con
sumed about 81, 900 gallons. And as it
was envolved into smoke at the point
where congealed water was piled up in
huge blocks on every hand, it may be
truly said that the confiagration was a
big thing on iceir But strange as it
may appear, the heat did not succeed
in reducing the blocks of ice to any
great extent, but seemed to cement
them together more firmly in one
solid mass.

Amelia LinkhaW went to the
motel III Lumbcrton, \. c. and inquired
for j. l.. Hartman. He was Il travel
ling salesman from Baltimore fre-
Qucnt visitor io the village, and had
been regarded as Miss Linkhaw's
accepted suitor. She was somewhat
famous beauty of that insulated part
Of the state, aii active worker in
religious charities, and the daughter
of moderately wealthy man. Harri-
man joined her in the hotel parlor, and
they shook hands; but while she
held his hand with her laft, she drew
pistol with her right, and shot him
dead. That was FIVE months ago, and
she has since bee,. in Jail, except when
lately taken into court on the day ap-
pointed for a trial. The interest in
the case was so great that 1000 persons
nearly the entire population of two
counties, gathered in and around the
Court House. Miss Linkhaw ad-
dressed the Court, saying that she
killed Hartman because he broke his
promise Of marriage; that she did
not believe she had done any wrong,
and that she did not desire Il lawyer TO
defend her, as she was entirely willing
to leave herself in the hands OF God,
who would take care OF her. Her
father, however, had engaged counsel,
and the trial was rOstpOndcd.
