The sardine factory at Lamoine, under
the charge Of Mr.. c. T.. Mitchell. is now
turning out over 1000 boxes daily, involv-
ing an outlay of over $3.50 weekly, exclu-
siye of the cost Of the boxes, oil. etc. 1t
employs about Is hands in the various de-
partments. The great question has been
whether a sufficient supply of fish could be
obtained to warrant putting up factory for
permanent business, the one now used be-
ing only temporary. Mr. Mitchell is pretty
well satisfied that the fish can he had and
eontemplates building factory, Just above
the wharf, with capacity for 10000 boxes
daily involving a weekly outlay for help and
fish of about 81 800. The work on the fac
tory will probably commence this fall and be
pushed to completion as rapidly as possible
When finished it will furnish employment
for 300 hands. many children and girls find
ing steady work at good wages. SO far.
there has not been fish enough to supply
the demand of the temporary works, but ad-
ditional weirs will be built which it is ex-
pected will meet the demand. Ii is an en-
terprise in which all in that section should
take deep interest and should make per-
onal effort to guarantee its success.

BLOOMSBURY, PA, FRIDAY. JANUARY9 $780,
The devil was taken aback.

Twas some priest who put thee up to
this said he in fury none but priest
could have taught thee this Trick
He then remained awhile, considering
whether he should take back his plan or
throw himself on the artist and kill him.
But the latter who WAS on his guard, pressed
the plan close to his breast, and employed
the holy relic as a shield. Seeing this the
fiend exclaimed
Il am outwitted, but will be revenged,
in despite of your relics and priests. Listen,
foolish mortaln That church, the plan of
which you have stolen from me, shall never
be completed. And as for thee, | will blot
out thy name from the memory of men.
Thou shalt not be accursed, o builder of
Cologne Cathedral but thy name shall pass
away, be forgotten and unknown foreverp p
And so saying, the devil disappeared
These last words Forgotten and unknown
forever : made a singular impression on the
architects mind, aud he returned home in
melancholy mood, although he was master
of the marvellous plan. The next day, how
ever, he directed that mass of thanksgiv-
ing should be celebrated, and speedily COM
menced building the noble cathedral, which
rose higher from day to day, so that the dew
il would be false prophet. As for his name
he determined to have it engraved upon a
a brass plate, affixed to the portal. But the
dissensions which took place between the
archbishop and citizens soon interrupted the
progress of the building. The architect died
suddenly and under such circumstances as
caused it to be believed that the devil had
hastened his death. Since that time divers
fruitless attempts have been made at differ.
ent intervals to finish the cathedral Fruit
less also have been the efforts of the
learned of Germany to discover the name of
the architect ; and the work still remains
imperfect and his name unknown.

A STRANGE ROMANCE.

That truth is stranger than fiction" is
once more aptly examplifed by the follow.
curious narrative, which reaches The Ma
zione from its correspondent at Lucca
Some years ago a native of Casamaggiore
emigrated to America, leaving behind him
his wife and two children Shortly after his
arrival in the States, where he promptly
found lucrative employment,he sent 100 lire
to the priest of his native place, to be by
him conveyed to his family. A few months
later this remittance was followed by sec.
ond of 1000 lire, and subsequent periods
other sums were forwarded in the same man
ner TO the total amount of 10000 lire, or
| fl000. The priest, however to whom all
| this money was transmitted putt in bis own
pocket. One day, having come to the con-
clusion that he had derived sufficient profit
| from his agency, he sent for the woman and
| informed her, with many consolatory reflec-
| tions, that her husband was dead. About
the same time he wrote to the emigrant, stat
| ing that the latter's wife and children had
succumbed to an epidemic, which had all
| but depopulated Casamaggiore, and inclosed
| in his letter an official certificate of their
death and burial. 1t appears that, after
while, the emigrant, believing himself to be
widower, married again. He prospered in
business, became a wealthy man, and, few
months ago, determined to revisit the place
of his birth In due time he arrived with
his second wife and family at Casamaggiore,
where he took up his quarters at the princi.
pal inn. Stroling out to look up some of
his old acquaintances, a little beggar boy
followed him, importuning him for aims
Something in the chld's appearance arrested
his attention. He asked the boy his name,
and found him to he his own son. Further
inquiry soon ELECTED the fact that his wife
and two children were living, but in the ut =
emhezzler when confronted with his victims
offered to refund the % 900 lire but the af-
| fair had come to the knowledge of the po.
lice authorities, who refused to permit any
compromise, and arrested the holy man.
against whom proceedings have been taken
| by the State Meanwhile. his unfortunate
ex-parishioner finds himself sadded with
two living wives and families between whose
claims upon his affection and support there
is, equitably speaking, nothing to choose
either way" ."-London Telegraph.
