Distressing Accident. On Monday even
ing of last week very sad accident oc-
Cured in the family of Mr.. T p. Hoover,
residing in Spring twp, this county, by
which Mrs. Hoover lost her life. Mr..
H. was loading his gun to shoots hawk,
and the nipple being filled up it would
not prime. He then drew the shot and
fixed the printing, and again loaded it.
After so doing he was in the act of
hanging the gun on hooks he kept for
the purpose, when by some means the
gun was discharged, the entire load en-
tering the side of Mrs II. The accident
happened about . p NJ, and at about s
p. NJ, death relieved her from further
suffering. Doctors Ellerman and Conrad
were present but medical aid was of no
avail. Mr.. Hoover was almost crazed
by the terrible accident, but no blame
can be attached to him. There was no
cap on the gun, nor had there been any
for some weeks, and its discharge is a
mystery.
n Mrs H. was buried at the Frankfort
Church yard in Cumberland Co.
Her age was 90 years 2 months and 81
days. She leaves two small children. !

A Coal Thief Shot.-Early Saturday
morning as the Cumberland Valley
Railroad watchman at Martinsburg was
patrolling his beat, he discovered two
negroes at work on one of the compa-
ny's coal bins. He called to them and
asked them what they were doing.
They replied that it was none of his
business. They had been already to one
bin and finding it empty, were trying to
force the lock off of second when they
were discovered. The watchman had
heavy artillery revolver, and firing it
in the air twice, he yelled to them to
dust. They thought he had double
barreled shot gun, and made for him,
when he fired at the foremost. He gave
a yell Of pain and both of the coal thieves
ran. At daylight, the trail of blood was
followed to negro cabin where Dick
Taylor was found with bullet hole
clear through him. The bullet entering
his chest, passed through the right
lung and came out of his back.

asleep Monday morning, for our enterprising
little townsman Billy KEEP had his battery
planted in front of the blacksmith shop, con.
sisting of an anvil and a twospound howitzer.
and as day began to break he sent forth such
volley that it aroused our citizens, who
we're soon up making preparations for their
departure to Fennimore. Soon the train ar
rived, when Billy gave them ano Their round,
which came near soaring the iron horse of

Dan Flynn he was soon all right again, and
