Mr. John Shaffer, son of Aaron Shaiier.
who resides near Dayidsyille, was crushed
to death by a locomotive on the pennsylva-
MIA railroad, at Swissvale, Allegheny coun-
ty, last wednesday. 1t appears that John
had gone west some time ago and getting
tired of that country started homeward, but
on arriving at Pittsburgh his money was all
spent As his trunk had been expressed to
Braddock il is thought that he intended
walking to that place TO secure work when
he met with the accident that caused his
death. His age was about twenty years.

authorities Were informed that
mine had been laid in small street
which enters the Neusky Prospect,

\ story is related 10 US, says the Indiana
Democrat, of an old lady, a resident in the
northern part of the county, who when
upon her deathbed, concealed under her
pillow, a bag containing over 81 500 in gold
coin. Those who attended upon her at
tempted to take the money away, but the
diving woman clung to it, and refused to
have IL removed, saying that She wanted to
takeit along with her. The story appears
TO be well authenticated, and illustrates the
''rnling passion strong in death"

In the North american Reric,c for April is a
noteworthy article by Judge A. w. Tour
| gee, in which the p-ofessed reformcrs of the
civil service are pt. on the defensive and
their schemes of reform pronounced to be
! Incompatible with American ideas of self
government, and on divers other grounds
inadmissible aud imprac,ieable. The same
number of the Review contains, under the
fanciful title, THE Thing That Nigh. be-"
a profoundly philosophical study of the
laws and conditions of human progress, by
I the Rev. Mark Pattison, Rector Of Lincoln
College, oxford. The third article is strong
defense of the Roman Catholic side of the
controversy about religion in the Public
Schools, from the pen of Bishop McQuaid,
of Rochester. The great problem of the
governmental control of monopolics is dis
cussed with reference to railway manage
ment by tire Hon. George Ticknor Curtis,
who contends that when a railway COM
pany IS corporated by any State it agrees to
this much and no more that its property
shall be subject to such legislative control
as the act of incorporation embraces, to the
exercise of the taxing and police powers of
the State, and to the power of eminent do
main. The same problem, in its bearing
upon telegraph lines, is ably discussed by
the Hon. VIM. n. Springer. Mr. John
Fiske has an article on The Historic Gene
sis ofProtestantsm, and Mr.. Anthony Troll
lspe, an essay on the Poet Longfellow. Mr.
Desire Charnay, the author of the series of
papers on the ruined cities Of Central Amer
ica has for more than two months been
pursuing his researches in regions remote
from all avenues of communication with
the civilized world, and consequently neith-
er the present, number of the Review nor
the one last preceding it contains any con-
tribution from him. In the May number,
however, will be published another of his
very instructive papers.

Nh EpIroR.--It is quite unfrequently
that we indulge in newspaper articles, but,
will do so on this occasion.
There has been considerable braggadocio
going the rounds, as to who had the boss
saw mill and who cut the most railroad ties
top the climax of cutting faster and more
ties out log than any other mill along the
s. & c. Il. r. The mill was manufactured
by Griffith & Wedge, OF GAINESVILLE, Ohio,
and belongs to the Westmoreland Lumber
Company and is run by Noah Shaulis, who
knows how to handle a saw mill. The
mill is situated in Stonycreek Twp, on the
farm of Albert Wright, near Lambertsville
and is running at present. The honor of
cutting more ties out Of one log than any
mill along the route belongs to Mcssrs.
George Shaulis and Lewis Rector, who cut
eighteen ties out of one log. The timber
grewon Mr.. Wright's farm and was trailed
by Herring & Custer with single span of
horses. They cut over sixteen thousand
feet of lumber, when the timber was frozen,
per day, but if the weather will be favorable
they will cut about twenty thousand feet
per day next week.
The hands are all joyial set Of men, as
affable as you wish to see and are perfect
gentlemen. Would say that we wish them
unbounded success, as they deserveit.
