EtiEem by u Dog,

Smyrna Times.
On Saturday last, after 6 coach doc
Of A. Les Cummins' had bitten shild
OF Robert Gass, two colored children,
one of them, his hostlsr's, snd quite a
number Of dogs, there began to be un-
easiness least the animal might have
th- hydrophobia. He was fastened MP
and kept in confinement throughout
Sunday, Mr.. c. being away from home.
The dog manifested sickness but net
the usual symptoms when they are
mad With the rabies. He both ate aud
drank little on Sunday, and Monday
morning before he was killed. He had
severe fight on Thursday with
another dog and Mr.. c. thinks his
fsrooity was caused by pain from an
Injured spine. Nevertheless, his
strange conduct while loose and under
confinement was calculated at the time
to cause considerable uneasiness.

To the Shiyering.

The last garment you put on
is the one tina. seems 10 bring
comfort. So we'll talk about
overcoats this cold day.
We have a little ulaterette
for very little boys, nice one,
Of good, warm, substantial
cloth, for 90 so; and thers's
Just as much comfort in it as
in one that you'd pay three
times as much for.
A larger boy may have a
similar coat not quite so good,
may be, for a so; but think,
how much more cloth it takes.
This boy is big enough to put
more costly dress on. II you
can afford it. His coat may cost
$12, II you like; but at thath he
will have about the best coat
Of any boy on your block.
Another boy is forgetting
he's e boy at all.--he's . man,
only not quite 20 round and
full as a mau-we call Linn o
young man. We've got some
thing Just to his nIind-(he's
got a mind Of his own now).
We've got plenty Of overcoats
for him we'll only mention
these: $6 buys him a good,
warm, durable, decent coat
q proper one too, unless he
ought to wear a finer one. $40
will (to.day) buy him one Of
three sorts OF ulsterettes and
overcoats that are marked
down because some sizss are
lacking. $lS will buy Linn one
OF the English-cloth ulstelettes
advertised yesterday, worth s5
mere, maybe.
A man may pay sc, or any
other sum up to $2S; and he
shall have a geod bargain.
We have a thorough assort-
ment for him to choose from.
He, at least, wants a cloth to
last, whether he wants it fine
or not. We know all about
what ee wants and our buEi-
ness has been eontrived so as
to serve Aim as thoroughly as
possible.
We'd like to have you think
Of warm underclothing Of all
sorts when you come in. We
don't make this but we buy
it with great csrefulness, and
serve you as we'll as If from
our own factory.

Fire-Accident at a Funeral
Bold Robbery.

WASHINGTON, February 2S.-Mystri-
GUS fires are becoming numerous in this
county. The burning Of the Worrel
residence in East Finley township
few weeks ago. created great excite
ment. Two or three days since fire
occurred at Centreville, the origin of
which could not be accounted for. Yes
terday the parsonage OF the Cumber.
land Presbyterian church, in West Fin
ley township, was burned to the ground.
During the winter it had been occupied
by John jenkins, there being no resi-
dent pastor in charge. Mr.. Jenkins
and Others working near the building
discOvere,! the fire when it was too late
to save anything. Loss, 81, 800; no in
surynce. This is also very mysterious
case.
The funeral services OF Mrs. John
Brown were held at her late residence at
White Mills, bordering this county yes
tsrday. The sermon and prayer over,
the friends were taking last look at the
corpse, when the floor suddenly gave
way, all present being preclpitated to
the cellar below, but, strange to say, no
one was injured.
A man representing himself to lie the
agent of lottery, the drawing OF which
comes off at this place, has for some
time been fleeing the farmers OF this
county. He approached a Mr.. Brown.

whose pocket was sticking wallet con-

The Baltimore and Ohio Rail.
road Company to Take Posses
sion Of the Lines Along Its
Road.
New YoRK, February 29.-The At
lanhc and Pacific Telegraph Company,
which has had a working understanding
and arrangement as TO the relative
amount OF dividends with the Western
Union Company, had, prior to such ar
rangement, a compact enabling them
(the A. K P.) to control the wires along
the line OF the b. & o. road. To-day,
however, the telegraph war has assumed
a more complicated shape. The b. 4 o.
Railroad Company served notice OF Its
intention to take control Of and operate
the lines of the A. & p. Company
and the b. & o. Railroad Company
between Washington, ID. g., and Mari
eta and Cincinnati, Ohio, Washington,
Pa, Columbus, Ohio, Newark, o., and
Chicago, ILL.,, heretofore operated by
the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph
Company under temporary license.
After notice had been served
and the lines all taken by the rail.
road company, an injunction was served
on President Garrett, OF the b. q d.
company, at the Windsor Hotel, this
city, TO restrain his company from TAX
ing possession OF the lines which were
put there by the A. 4 p. Telegraph
Company in 1875 and 1877, under an
agreement made by General Eckert,
then President, and ID. ii. Bates, then
General Superintendent of the A. 4 P.
Telegraph Company. This arrange
ment, it is alleged, provided that the
railroad company, who were at that
time afraid OF consolidation be-
tween the Western Union and A. 4 Z.
Telegraph Companies, should at any
time have the option of taking the lines
at cost. On Saturday last contract
was concluded between the B. & o. and
A. ". Telegraph Company, having
ten years to run, whereby all the
telegraphic work and business oil
that railroad shall be managed in
connection with the A. U. Telegraph
Company, instead of the Western Union
and Atlantic and Pacific Companies.
The Baltimore and Ohio lines aggregate
5000 miles and 400 Offices, the principal
ones being at Washington, d. O.,
Baltimore, Cleveland, Freder-
ick, Pittsburgh, Wheeling, Gin.
cinnati, Columbus, Sandusky,
Marietta, Chillicothe, Tiffin, Defiance.
Chicago, st. Louis, Vincennes and
Louisville. The Baltimore and Ohio
railroad company have accepted pro-
vision of the act of Congress July, 1876,
relating to the telegraph companies, and
has also taken out letters OF incorpora-
ton in Maryland, Ohio, Indiana. llli-
nois and other States, through which
the lines run.

ANOTHER VICTIM.
He Will Not Fill any More
Lighted Lamps.
lsnce OF the Register,

Correspondence OF the Register
BURTON, w. Va, February 2Sth.
A shocking aud fatal accident hap
pened Samuel Roberts at his home, one
mile northeast OF this place, at o'clock
last Friday night. In filling lighted
miners lamp with carbon oil, which he
was pouring from half gallon can con-
tanning quart, the air waited the blaze
into the stream, igniting the gas, ex-
ploding the can, and covering the whole
front OF his body with the deadly burn
ing fluid.
He Immediately rushed from the
house a sheet Of burning flame, and
headed for a small brook close by, which
upon reaching, he found to coutain too
little water to serve him, and becoming
exhausted, he fell back ward to the earth,
his flesh and clothing adding fresh fuel
TO the roaring, kissing oil.
A member of his household had fol-
lowed him with bed cover, which was
thrown over his body, but 1t too took
fire and added to the general destruc-
ton. Immediately another cover was
thrown over him, which eventually
subdued the flame, although for all good
purposes ii were better il he had been
entirely consumed, for the fact that
death alone can relieve his misery.
Medical service was soon at hand,
but no earthly service could benefit him,
and the doctor, in all tender kindness,
after dressing the body as best he could,
told him to prepare for the worst, as his
DAYS were nearly numbered.
The doctors say he will not live till
morning. His body was one solid burn
in front from the top OF his head to the
end OF his body; his head was entirely
bereft Of hair and the part burned as
black as il painted. The flesh fell from
the backs OF his hands, arms, neck and
stomach, and by the time your readers
see this he will be out of pain.

Result of q Disputed Game.

GALVESTON, February 2s,-A Nars
special from Qnero, Texas, says: Three
men named Halland, Martin and Cow
ard were engaged in pitching half dol
lars for drinks. Halland disputed the
game and started for his house for gun
10 kill Martin. His mother, 70 years
old, came from the house and caught
Martin, who was trying to prevent Hal.
land from getting the gun. She held
Martins arms while Holland drew
knife and savagely hacked Martins
throat Coward placed q pistol In Mar
tins hand aud he slot Holland in the
arm, then shook himself clear OF the
old woman, knocked her down and
shot her, inhicting wound from which
she shortly died. He then fired again
at Haland, wounding him mortally.
Martins injuries are not serious.

the fall OF the railway bridge over the

is proceeding at Dundee before the
Board OF Trade. Several painters, who
painted the bridge last summer, testified
that they saw numerous bolt holes
empty, found bolts in holes where there
should have been rivets, rivets without
heads, bars loosened and nuts un-
screwed; that one supporting column OF
the high girders was cracked from top
10 bottom, and held together with four
hoop bands, and that sometimes the
oscillation of the bridge was so great
that they feared it would fall.

How the Nihilists Succeeded in the Win

LONDON, February pa dispatch
front ST. Petersburg says: 1t may be un-
ineligible to many persons abroad how
the Nihilists succeeded in doing their
work in the very residence of the Inn
perial family. Probably no other build
ing In st. Petersburgh is less safe than
the Winter Palace. Ii has always been
the refuge for the numberless vagabond
workmen, friends OF the servants and
others, many without passports, who
would not live with impunity
anywhere else. The Imperial ukase of
last April gave full power to General
Gourko to search the buildings OF the
palace, but even that severe Governor
General could hardly venture, such is
the Russian administration, to interfere
with the special authority OF the i'm
perial residence. There is an old Rus
sian law which gives the right OF sane
tuary to criminals taxing refuge within
the buildings of special palaces.
