A Mystery Explained.

On Sunday evening says the Roches- ter Herald, the residents in the southern suburbs were startled by heavy roar as of distant thunder, accompanied by a trembling of the earth. This lasted but a few seconds, and the general opinion was that a slight earthquake had taken place. Telephonic dispatches received from Richmond Mills last evening ex- plains the mystery in another way. 1t appears that a well known soicety young man was showing some young ladles at the mills how to swing in hammock. The lesson proceeded successfully until the fastening broke, and the young man aforesaid struck the ground in the shape of the letter V. The roaring was caused by his remarks, and the trembling of the earth by the sudden contact of something less than three hundred pounds of hu- manity.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly claims for 1t q superiority over all rene- dies ever offered to the public for the SAFE, CERTAIN and PERMANENT cure of Ague' and Fever, or Chills and Fever whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Vest ern and Southern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the assertion that in no case whatever will It fail to cure if the directions are strictly followed and carried out. In great many cases q single dose has been sufficient for cure and whole families have been cured by q single bottle, with perfect restoration of the general health. It is however prudent. and in every more certain to cure if its use is con tinued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order. Should the patient how ever, require eathartic medicine after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULLS VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be sufficient.
 The genuine SMITHS TONIC SYRUP must have DR. JOHN BULLS private stamp on each bottle. DR. JOHN BULL only has the right to manufac- ture and sell the original JOHN J. SMITHS TONIC SYRUP. of Louisville, Ky. Examine well the fable on each bottle. If my private stamp is not on each bottle do not purchase or you will be deceived.

There was u little pistol practice INDUCED
in on Elm street, near the Union depot last
night, about o'cloc1, by Officer Kittrell and
William Phares; Their target being three
negroes. They went into lunch stand kept
by Mrs Goldman and called for can of
salmon, which they ate when they called
for another, which they attempted to- get
away with without paying for it, when Mrs.
Golman, who is an old lady, caught hold of
the coat tail of Bill Yancy, the enc
who had called for the salmon, and
cried for help. In his endtavors
to free himself he ierked her down violently,
and with his two comrades dashed off up
Elm street. Just at this juncture Officer
Kettrell, of the police force, and William
Phares, fired several shots at the fleeing
parties and as they turned up Swiss avenue
Major Embry took two cracks at them, but
none of the shots took effect. However,
Young, the "main guy" was captured and
lodged in the station house. The severest
discretion should be exercised in matter of
shooting under such circumstances.
