SHEEP LosT.-Two weeks ago last
Sunday, Mr.. Albert Babcock, living
in the north part of fRootstown, turned
his fine flock of 132 sheep into lot of
about five acres of wheat stubble. On
the Friday following he found forty
four of the animals dead, and up to
last Monday morning six more of
them had died. Mr.. Babcock says it
has been a common custom with him,
as it has been with many of his bro
ther farmers, to turn sheep into wheat
s;ubble after harvest, and has never
before known any evil to result from
the practice. He thinks the loss Of
his sheep is attributable to their eating
too much wheat without having grass

has been found that the use of Speer's
old Port Grape Wine OF New Jersey
has all extraordinary effect in check
ing this fermentation and restoring
the system to its original strength and
vigor. Invalids and debiIitated per-
sons have found it the most nutritious
and strengthening tonic in the market,
and the greatest help in resisting the
poisonous effects OF the vitiated aimos-
phere. This wine. so long estab abllshed
has become the standard wine upon
which physicians rely as the most rich

just after the Band had finished their

were upon the walk, and went among
the crowd swinging and swapping his
weapon. When near the Etna House
one of the chambers was discharged,
the ball passing through the coat
sleeve of son of the reckless man
and cutting the skin sufficiently to
draw blood. Officer Gibbons here
stumbled upon him, took him i'm
charge and furnished him quarters in
the cooler oyer Sunday. On Monday
Mayor, who discharged him, being
unable to find any law for Furnishing
the offense. Is it not high time that
some statute was provided for the
punishment OF such criminal careless

Shooting in Pond Neck.

Some of the negroes of the First district
seem to have forgotten the salutary lesson
taught them by the execution of Medford
Waters, and have commenced cunning for
each other again. Last Sunday night, as a
woman, who lives with Mr. Vincent Ayers,
was returning from meeting held in the
house of one of the colored brethren of Pond
Neck, some one fired 4 load of shot at her,
about Il dozen grains of which lodged in
her person without, however, producing
any very serious injury.
This seems to have been the signal for n
general settlement of all the ancient feuds
of all the colored clans in that part of the
county. Complaint being made before JUS
1ice Terry, he issued warrants for the arrest
of George Sewell, Henry Lyman and Sam
charged with completely in the shooting
aforesaid and also with divers and sundry
other crimes and trespasses against the law
and the peace, good order and dignity of
the State. The warrants We're placed in
the hands of Constable Benson, of the First
district, who arrested the parties and took
them before Justice Terry, who committed
George Sewell and Henry Lyman to Jail in
default of surety to keep the peace toward
James Booker. He also committed Samuel
Patterson in default of surety of the peace
towards William Patterson. Samuel had
been under bonds for some time, but his
surety declined to be responsible for his
good behavior in the future, and the jet
the cool retreat presided over by Sheriff
Logan, and seem to be very comfortable
and happy.

Mrs. Annie T. Dewitt, wife of tha Rev
Abraham Dewitt, died at the residence of

was :; native of Princeton, n. j., but for

Learn to Swim.

1t is duty of every person, whether
male or female, to learn To swim That
fact is made obvious by recent disasters
To know how to swim has been to know
how to escape death, to many people within
few weeks. Fright and exhaustion from
not knowing how to remain in the water
with the greatest possible ease destroyed
many lives when the NorrdJdnset and
.Stoningtoa colliled, and when the Sco,ro,.-
hdkd burned. One who is accustomed to
the water leaps from sinking ship with
half the terror of his neighbor who cannot
swim, dextrously avoids the beating of the
waves, carefully reserves his strength and,
even If he does not propel himself stroke,
floats safely upon the water long after his
friend who could not swim has perisled.
In these times when bathing is such Il uni
versal recreation, there is no EXCISE for not
knowing how to swim, and many women
who never venture into the water except to
stand knee deep in the surf to play like
children, should courageously r.s.,iys TO
learn to swim, and, under the care of some
reliable helper, go ont into deeper water.
BY learning the things all may know about
the water and about a ship, people will be
able TO keep their wits when danger comes,
and those who learn the lessons calamity
reward eseare from 4 frighttu death.
