Crushed LimestOne.-Mr. Henry d.
Kinsel, farmer living about one-half
mile east of Myerstown, has started a
new industry which, if it should prove
successful, will lessen the burning and
using of lime for fertilizing purposes
He has procured machine to crush
limestone as fine as flour. This, it is
claimed, if sowed ON land will enrich
the soil to o greater extent than phos-
phate or lime. Quite number of farmers
have given orders for 500 to l 200 pounds,
which they will use on the land prepared
for sowing wheat this fall. Mr.. Kintzel
claims that where his powdered lime
stone has been used thirty-five bushels
of wheat have been grown to the acre.

The Other Sidc.-Several weeks since
we copied from Juniata county paper
an account of an afIray between a man
named Coder and John McNemar, in
which it was made to appear that Coder
was the innocent party. 1t seems that
the dispute arose about the payment of
bill due Mr.. Nc. and that Coder and
his wife both attacked Mr.. Nc. assault
ing him with club, in doing which
Coder broke Mr.. Mes. arm which he
had raised to ward q blow from his
head. 1t was then that Mr.. McNemar
struck the blow that wounded Coder.-
Each party had the other arrested, and
the next. court will probably say who is
to blame. We give this side of the ca Sc
in justice to John McNemar who is
well known to our citizens.

Accident at Mandaville.-sunday after

Accident nj ManuaYille.-Sundaya after
noon while two brothers, Amos and
William Rauch, of Derry Station, were
driving home from Mandaville, this
county, they met with an accident
which fortunately for them resulted
only in the death of the horse. Just as
they had crossed the canal bridge at
Mandaville, the horse took fright at q
chicken in the road and sprang down
over ten feet wall, dragging the buggy
and its occupants with him. The bug
gy landed on top of the horse, with the
Rauch brothers sandwiched between
them. A few slight bruises to the men
were the extent Of their injuries. The
buggy top was utterly demolished, and
the horse broke his right hind leg in
two places. The Messrs. Rauch shot
the poor brute, killing him, thus put
ting him out of his misery. The horse
was very promising three year old and
was held at good figure by his owners.
The escape from death of the two broth
ers was almost miraculous.-P Patriot.

2 Spring Township seems to be rich in all
kinds of minerals. Besides the ironl
ore that has been found, Mr.. Frank Glib
son is turning out q yellow-ochre,
that is finer and better than any we
have had from the eastern market. He
has now found a large quantity of stone
that seems to be sulphate of lime. 1t is
smooth and fine when crushed and
brushes easily. To the taste, it is sharp
like lime juice. He is going to grind
and have it tried as fertilizer, and there
is no doubt that it will then be of more
value to the land than lime, which loses
nearly fifty per cent. of its value in
burning. Some samples of this stone
have been left with us. He has also
found quite vein of stone, that as q
whet-stone is equal to the Arkansas oil
stone, as 1t cuts fast and leaves smooth
keen edge. We have tried it and were
surprised at Its action.

MfsSjsSIDDi Steamer burned,

ST. LOUIS. March II The steamer How
ard, OF the New Orleans Anchor Line, took
fire last night at her wharf and was reduced
TO a wreck, her entire upper works being
burned of. She bad arrived from New Or
leans only about an hour before with fine
freight-Iist and a number Of passengers, and
was apparently in safe condition. The fire
seems 10 have caught in a pile OF iute for
ward OF the furnaces. From present APP
pearances her hull will be saved, but the
machinery is badly damaged. The Howard
was purchased by the New Orleans Anchor
Line two years ago for $4,000, but various
improvements have been added, and she was
probably worth between $4,000 aud $4,000.
She is not insured, AZ FAR as known. All the
passengers were safely landed, but several
OF them lost all their baggage. The boats
cargo consisted OF sugar, iute, and general
merchandise, amounting TO about 1000 tons.
