/Pugllsm In Ickesburg.- On Saturday a
Lyery discreditable encounter took place
in Ickesburg, between Rev. j. j. Hamil-
ton and James Irvine An eye witness
gives the following account of the affair:
While Mr.. Irvine was up stairs over
Hench's store and Mr.. Hench was gone
to his supper, Mr.. Hamilton came there
and insisted upon Irvine coming down.
1t was evident from Mr.. Hamilton's
manner that he had lost his temper, 1--WE
hope no one, unless very peacable
man, will find it, and was bent on hav-
ing trouble. Mr.. Irvine declined at first
to come down and then Mr.. H. called
him liar, and coward, using other in
sulting language, till finally Mr.. 1. came
down and told him he wanted no fight
with an old man and a preacher. Mr..
III. told him to waive all that and he
would clear him of the law. Continued
bad language seemed to render some
action necessary ON Mr.. Irvine's part
and he consequently knocked Mr.. Ham
ilton down and proceeded to punish him,
Mr.. III. in the meantime getting in a
blow with his cane. Some blood was
drawn on both sides and then the by
ISLANDERS interfered and separated the
men. The origin of the trouble we be-
lieve was some communications that
were published in one of the county
papers.

A Shower of Clder.-A scene of excite
ment was produced in the brick market
house, Broad street, Thursday morning,
which became one of merriment before
it was over, in enjoyment of which
many persons participated. A farmer
had brought a barrel of cider to retail,
and placed it on one of the stalls, where
butter, eggs and other produce were
being sold. While a crowd of men,
women and boys were pressing around
the stall making purchases, the bung of
the cidar barrel suddenly flew out with
loud explosion, sending stream of
foaming apple juice like miniature
plug stream ten feet into the air, causing
the crowd to disperse in all directions,
but not until all had been saturated with
the falling cider. Market Master Dubbs,
who was on the ground, was driven to
the nearest door by the force of the con-
cussion, but escaped injury, while a
number of hard money farmers who
were near the scene never budged.--
Everybody laughed who had no cider
on their hats, hair or clothes.-H Harris

Burglary and Robbery On Thursday
night thieves pulled down window in
John Snyder's coach shop, on Water
street, and entering helped themselves
to a couple of cast steel chisels, q gouge
and brace. Thus armed they proceeded
to Jones Brother & Co.'s warehouse, a
few doors further up, and prying in a
door walked in there, where they made
a miserable effort, and failed, to bore
holes in the safe with a small reamer.
On top of the safe lay bag containing
about $40 in pennies, and from the
alarm till were taken about $5 in change
and defaced coin of small denominations,
which were no longer legal tender, and
which had been accommodating there for
a long time. Closing the door by which
they entered after them they departed,
and hauled up at the railroad depot, to
which admittance was gained through
the transum of the gentlemen's waiting
room, and from there through the ticket
window into the ticket Office. The small
safe in use there was thrown on the
floor, with the face up, when the dumb
rascals began toying on the door with
the tiny reamer again. To deaden the
sound the safe was lain on the agents
and Mr.A. j. Fickes' coats. The thieves
got nothing there, only gold pen and
holder, belonging to Andy, valued at
about So, although a number of express
packages, in the freight house, were
broken open and examined.
These robberies occurred between
twelve and one o'clock. A noise, pre-
sumed to have been made by the robbers,
was heard at the depot about those hours
by Mrs. Annie Ickes, which fixes the
time.

A Sad Acoldent-On Saturday after
noon the use of coal oil was the cause of
an accident that may result in the loss
of life to a daughter of Mr.. Henry Reed
er, residing about three miles below
Newport. The little girl aged about II
years, tried to hasten the fire by using
coal oil, which ignited and set her cloth
ing on fire. Before the fire was extin-
guished she was SO badly burned, that
the physician has little hope of her life.
Mr.. and Mrs. Reeder were absent at
camp meeting, and were at once sent for
and hastened home to find the little girl
that they had left so bright and healthy,
now, nearly at the point of death. An
other terrible warning against the use of
oil as kindling.
