Arrested for Cremation.

Since October, 1878, German peddler
who went by the name of Michael Bo-
gan, and who previous to that time had
peddled goods of various descriptions
through the upper end of Dauphin
county, has been missing. He is sup
posed by many to be alive and residing
in Philadelphia, but for some time ru-
mors have been afloat that he was foul
ly dealt with. These rumors were set
afioat by Joseph Bowman, Jacob Miller,
Jacob Warfel and Christ. Zimmerman.
Bowman asserts that on the night of
October %, 1878, he saw Philip and
Nathaniel Shoop, two cousins of the
peddlers, burning body which he be-
lieves to have been Bogan's. For circu-
lating this report the Shops have en-
tered a suit for SANDER against the men
mentioned above, and in retaliation the
latter made information against the
Shops, charging them with burning
in a suspicious manner on the night of
October 26, 1878, the body of an un-
known man. On Saturday afternoon a
hearing was had in the case before JUS
tice Miller, of Jackson township, where
the parties reside. Evidence of suffi-

The Mysterious Georgia Abduction.

ATLANTA, Ga, September "A hur-
ried trip to Elberton, the village from
which Widow Pullian was abducted ten
days ago, only confirms the mystery of
her taking off. Nothing has been heard
from her except a letter from Toccoa, a
railroad town, in which she says that
she is in the hands of revenue officers,
who are carrying her to North Carolina
to keep her for three months. Her
daughter still sticks to the story of her
abduction. The search has been stop
ped, as the whole country has been ran
sacked. There has been no excitement
in Elberton in years to equal this. Her
relatives say that they know nothing
and suspect nothing, but the public think
that they know more than they care to
tell. Only time can reveal the secret of
this most mysterious affair.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept, 10 1870.
The vote in Maine is not full victory
for either party, but the immediate results
are unquestionably favorable to the Repub-
licans. That which will cheer the Repub-
licans is the possession of both houses of
the Legislature and the certainty of elect
ing Governor and minor State officers by
the majorities in those Houses. The other
parties will no doubt take comfort in the
fact that they, combined, have thrown
more votes than the Republicans have.
The enlargement of the Hall of the House
of Representatives by taking away the
partition walls on its southernly side and
extending it to the outer wall of the build
ing for the purpose of improving the ven-
tilation of the Hall is still going on and
the work is being prosecuted as fast as
possible with view of having it entirely
completed previous to the meeting of
Congress in December. The capacity of
the Hall will be greatly increased and its
appearance greatly changed, aud will form
ample space for the increase of Represent
tatives for many decades to come. The
fine and attractive room known as the
"Speakers Room" is one of those that are
being taken to enlarge the House. In this
room were paintings and likenesses of all
the speakers from the adoption of the
Constitution to the present time-from
Wuhlenberg to Randall, including among
them those of many of the most distin-
guished of American statesmen, such as
Jonathan Trumbull, Theodore Sedgwick,
Henry Clay, Langdon Cheeves, John Bell,
James X. Polk, r. M. T. Hunter, and
Robert G. Winthrop-names that held a
high rank in the political annals of the
country and have done much in giving
character and dignity to its institutions.

A Strange Tragedy.


Thursday evening George Water6eld,
a middle-aged painter, was sitting on the
porch in front of Mr.. Samuel Clayton's
hotel, at Edge Hill village, when he
suddenly jumped up, walked to the bar
room door, exclaimed that he was shot
and fell dead. A physician who was
called In extracted a minnie rifle ball
which had lodged in his heart No one
was seen shooting, nor was the report of
firearm heard at the hotel, but after
some time a man who came to the hotel
stated that he had seen young man
named Titus Heilman shooting with a
rifle at Abingdon Station, half mile
distant, about the time of the tragedy
Heilman was sent for and explained that
he was practicing with a minnie rifle by
shooting at ball on the cupola of the
engine house at the station. The dis
tance from the station to the hotel is
variously estimated at from one-half to
three-quarters of mile, no one putting
it under the former figure. The hotel
stands upon high ground, being not less
than one hundred feet above the level of
the railroad and the ball must have been
what is known among marksmen as a
curve shot. Deputy Coroner Fenton
held an inquest, the jury returning a
verdict of accidental death.

There is a disposition again this year to
organize a citizens city ticket and Danish
politics from the contest. There can be no
question but that the advancement of the
interests of the city is far more importance
than party triumph, and if one cannot be
secured through the other it will perhaps be
better to join hands upon the broad plat
form of common good. This is q most
worthy motive, but good intentions are liable
to become perverted in a struggle for place
and personal aspirations often result in as
much disturbance as political aspirations.
Yankton's need for the coming year will be
an official board of thorough bueiness men,
who will devote their time and capabilities
to the people. Any plan which will secure
this is the best, whether it be partisan or
non-partisan.

the CONSUMPTION Of TIMBER.
Lumberman's Gazette

Lumberman's Gazette.
We have now about 8 5000 miles Of rail.
road the annual consumption for ties OF
sleepers alone is 10000 Oe, or thirty years
growth of 5000 acres. To fence these roads
would require at least 3 5000 miles of fencs,
which would cost &45, 0 600 to build, and
take at least f15,000,0 900 annually to keep it
In repair. We have $4,000 miles of wire,
which requires In it's putting up 100000
trees, while the annual repairing must take
100000 more. The insignificant lucifer
match consumes annually in it's mapufac.
ture 100000 cubic feet OF the finest pine.
The bricks that are annually baked require
100000 cords Of wood, which would
sweep the timber clean from $4,000 acres.
Shoe-peRs are quite as an important an arti-
Gle as matches or bricks, and to make the
required annual supply consumes 100000
cords of fine timber, while the manufacture
Of lasts and boot trees takes 100000 cords
of maple, beech and birch, and about the
same amount 10 required for plane-stocks
and the handles of tools. The packing boxes
made in thesUnited States 10 1874 amounted
TO $~12,OOO.OO while the timber manufac.
tured into agricultural implements, wagons,
etc, is more than 500, 100000. The farm
and rural fences of the country consume an
immense amount of lumber and timber an.
nuslly. but, Us we grow older as q nation,
this consumption may, and probably will,
be reduced by the more general use Of live
fences or hedges. Our consumption of tim
Der is moi only daily on the increase, but
our expectation 10 also rapidly increasing.
Our slaves go by the million to France an
nually, walnut, OAK. maple, and pine to
England, and, epars and docking timber to
