seriously taken to heart the words Of Count

pointed out that there were hotbeds Of
socialism apart from Berlin, and the time
might come when there might be no rem.

Late advices from the scene oI
conflict in South America reflect little
credit upon any of the combatants.
The blowing up Of Chilean transport
by an Internal machine was not very
glorious deed, although it destroyed a
hundred and fifty of the enemy. Other
nations have seldom or never deliber-
ately used torpedoes, except against
war vessels proper. Further details of
the sack of Tacna and africa show the
Chilean soldiery to be as merciless,
thievish and brutal as the worst
mercenaries of Europe were centuries
ago. The objective point of the Chi
leans now is Lima, and no one can
doubt that the hope of plundering that
rich city will keep the army securely
together and enable it to make a tre-
mendous fight. Meanwhile, though
not in time to save Lima, there is a
possibility that foreign nations will in
terfere. There seems to be sufficient
excuse for their doing so.

the paraphernalia was sold to different
individuals, and not to representatives
of other shows, and while some things
sold for all they were worth, Others
sold very cheaply. Maj Beale, of
Leechburg, purchased the sacred bull,
and wagon, for one hundred and fifty
dollars. Harry Wray paid twenty
dollars for a bird of paradise, and ex-

and fifty cents in pair of miniature

KILLED BY BULL.-Mr. Robert
Mckinney, of Adams township, was attacked
by feroeious Alderney bull, in his field, last
Tuesday evening week, and so injured that he
died short after being carried to his house.
He had gone to the field after the cows and his
not returning as soon as was expected alarmed
his wife, who went out and was astonished to
see the bull preventing those of the cows from
coming to the house that wanted to come.
Surmising that something had happened, she
called to their son, who arming himself with a
pitch fork, went into the field and was driven
out of it by the bull. The son then called a
neighbor, and the two of them found Mr.. Me-
Kinney lying behind knoll in the field, out
of sight from the house, and carried him in.
Mr.. Mckinney was about 20 years of ago
