of the chrome and the barn on the right,
with group Of cattle, flock of sheep,

Wanted to Get Out.

A despatch from Pekin, ILL.,, says !:
The prisoners of Tazewell county Jail
set fire to their straw beds at three
O'Clock Tuesday afternoon in hope that
they would be taken from the Jail and
get chance to escape during the excite
ment. Barnes, the jailor, having the
keys of the cells in his pocket, and
being absent in distant portion of the
city on official business, the inmates
had to stand siege of smoke. On his
arrival, Hopkins, one of the inmates,
was found nearly suffocated in his cell.
The prisoners covered their heads with
pieces of bedding and laid fiat on the
floor and so saved themselves from suf-
location, but they were too much ex-
hausted to attempt anything like an
escape when help arrived.

searched plpe.hole leading into the
chimney AT three o'clock they return
ed to the bed room Of the occupants of
the house, took new calico dress be-
longing to the old lady from the wall
and tore 1t into strips, and re-tied her,
she giving them more trouble than her
husband, as he was suffering severely
from an attack of rheumatism.
The thieves then left the house and
departed Several hours later Mrs.
Kern succeeded in freeing herself after
great exertion. She made her way to
the nearest neighbor and gave the
alarm, and several hours after her house
presented scene Of great excitement,
and during the entire day II was crowd
ed with people who were anxious TO get
chance at the robbers. An inventory
of the valuables stolen showed the fol-
lowing About $500 In money, school
bonds of the city of Allentown, made
payable to VIM. b. Kern, amounting to
$500; Lehigh county bonds, made paya-
BILE to Daniel Kern, to the amount of
$780, United States four per cent. bonds
made payable to VIM. b. Kern, to the
amount of 81 200; United States four
and half per cent. bonds, amounting
to $500. The money and the bonds
were kept in bureau drawers and in a
sideboard. Payment has been stopped
on the school and county bonds. 1t is
believed that the government bonds are
registered, and that Mr.. Kern will not
be deprived of their value.
Entrance was gained by placing a
ladder against the front porch and
ascending to the top, then boring hole
with an inch and a half auger through
the window frame, and prying out the
nail, which kept the lower half down,
with large pocket knife, which was
left behind. The thieves then descended
to the first floor and secured their vic
Tins and money as already described.

Old FOayIsh.

William A. Packer, of Bald Eagle
township, is an advocate. of the theory
that reaper is an expensive institution
to cut grain with. The machines, he
says, get out Of order every little while,
and it requires time to repair them.
These frequent stops are losing specula-
tions, whereas good cradle swingers go
right on and make full day. For
grass moving Mr.. Packer says the reap
er is an improvement over the scythe,
for the reason that very few men of this
age can endure the labor.

Bold Burglary.

ALLENTOWN, July 49, One of the
most daring robberies ever perpetrated
in this section of the State was enacted
at an early hour yesterday morning near
the village OF Neffsville, this county, the
victims being an aged couple who live
in that vicinity.
The particulars are about as follows:
Daniel Kern, the victim, is retired
farmer and resides one mile this side of
Neffsville, in North Whitehall twp,
about eleven miles from this city. He
and his wife are about sixty years of age,
and occupy small two-story house
located In somewhat secluded spot by
itself. At one o'clock yesterday morn
ing the aged couple were rudely awak-
ened from their slumbers by three
masked men who had entered their bed
room on the first floor, and who inso-
lently demanded that they deliver all
their money and valuables into their
hands. Mr.. Kern and his wife showed
resistance and refused to comply with
the request, stating that they were with
out money or anything valuable. The
ruffians then tore up carriage blanket
and securely tied the couple. They first
tied their hands behind them, then
threw them on the bed, and fastened
their feet to the foot-board and their
heads to the head board of the bed. Two
of the men proceeded to ransack the
house, and were soon Joined by the
third, who had remained to see that
their victims were securely tied. Every
drawer, nook and corner of the building
was thoroughly examined, and several
chaff bags were ripped open and
searched.
They even went into the garret and

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, d. c., July 81, 1880.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 81, 1880.
The speech of Secretary schurz delivered at
indianapolis last night, is chiefly commented
on here because Of his failure to enlarge on
Southern affairs. What he says Of the Civil
Service Is known by every intelligent person
here to be true. There has been an improve
ment In the last three years. He fails to say,
what might be said, with the same truth, that
the reform commenced before the present
administration came in. SO far as know, the
particular Department oyer which Schurz pre-
sides, was in as good condition when Chandler
left 1t as 1t is at this time. Many people will
fail to see the force of the Secretary's special
desire that one party shall continue in power
for an indefinite period, while he persistently
objects to more than a single Presidential
term, for one man. But on the whole the
speech is an able and judiclous one, and its
effect will be good in party sense.
We are told to-day that Collector Merritt, of
New York, having declared that he thinks all
his subordinates should be left to vote as they
please, and that none of them shall be assessed
for campaign purposes, is to be dismissed. OF
the truth of the report, nothing is known here
at his writing. But If President Hayes still
has full faith In Civil Service order No. 1.
can hardly conceive of a better opportunity
for enforcing 1t than this. If these are all the
"charges" against the Collector, he is simply
supporting the letter and spirit of that order,
and ought to be sustained, If the order re mains
in force. If, however, as is also reported,
Collector Merritt intends to vote for General
Hancock, the subject goes beyond the the letter
of order No. 1 and will have to be considered
outside of 1t.
There have been reports of i'll. feeling between
two Cabinet oficers-Secretary Schurz and
Secretary Sherman, for sometime. 1t is now
said that the latter insists on General Merritt's
dismissal, and the former on his retention.
There will be some trouble, after all In dis
tributing the sold Guard Grant, medals, and
for this reason While General Grant started
in with 304 votes and received 306 on the final
ballot, the votes which made up the 306 were
recruited aud added to the original 304. For
instance in Maryland, Grant, through all the
ballots except the last never had less than z
votes in the delegation, where as on the final
ballot he had only 4, losing of the so called
sold Guard, which loss was made up else
where from Mr.. Blaine's friends. Kansas on
the final ballot gave Grant votes he never
received on any previous ballot, and SO did
other States which did not 60 to- Garfield, As
matter of fact only about 800 Individual del
egates stood by General Grant from first to
last.
The Democratic editors who are clustering
about what the army would do in case of a
disagreement between General Hancock, aud
the powers at Washington are, according to
the New York Herald, making fools of them
selves, aud helping the Republicans amaz-
ingly.
