Upset and Run Off, On Tuesday morn
ing Messrs. Samuel Moore and w. A.
Boyd, of Howe township, met with a
mishap that was not the most enjoyable
affair, yet they escaped luckily, not
withstanding. Together they were COM
ing to town in sleigh drawn by spir-
tied though docile horse, and in descend
ing the hill at potter Miller's when the
turn to the right was made the sleigh
careened, throwing the occupants out
without ceremony, while the horse sped
on. A few yards from where the mis-
fortune befel the gentlemen the sleigh
came in contact with wood-sled stand
ing along side of the highway. 1t lodg-
ed there, pretty we'll demolished, while
the excited horse hurried on, neither
knowing why nor where, the shafts
swinging furiously at his heels. He
ran as far as Squire Wright's, dis
tance of about half mile, where he was
captured. Neither of the occupants of
the sleigh sustained injuries through the
accident, but the coachmaker has anoth-
er job on hand. 1t is an i'll wind that
blows nobody good.-Ne,cs.

THE TIMES NEW BLOOMFIELD, Pa FEBRUARY l. 1881

Cumberland COunty.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week:
On Friday night the Hancock pole at
Mt. Holly, fell with o crash across Bal
timore avenue. 1t came within an ace
of demolishing the Mt. Holly Echo
printing office
On Tuesday dog belonging to Mr..
John Cope, of South Newton, one mile
above Jacksonville, this county, went
mad. A number of the neighbors fol-
lowed the mad brute for whole day,
some on horseback and some on foot,
tracking him through the snow, until
finally they came up to the dog near
Jacksonville, where he was killed by
Harry Foreman. Several dogs are sup
posed to have been killed. Those re.
naming in the neighborhood are tied up.
A number of reports of roofs break
ing down have reached us,among which
Is the barn of Isaac Burkhart of Mifflln
township. The barn of w. s. Morrow
began to bulge from the weight of snow
but was saved by the prompt use of iron
rods.
Also the barn of Isaac Slower, on the
old Getter place, in Newton township,
gave way under the weight of snow and
ice. Mr. Slower noticed that the barn
was showing signs of giving way took
his stock out and soon after the structure
fell. The barn is q complete wreck, and
will involve considerable loss.

Iuniata County We copy the follow
ing from the Juniata county papers of
last week:
VIM. Crawford, foreman of the Demo
crot and Register office, sprained his
left ankle on Monday evening while
coasting.
About eleven o'clock on Monday
night, number of citizens in different
parts of the town, were awakened by a
dull vibrating sound, as If made by
distant earthquake or explosion. What
caused the noise, is the question.
A Tuscarora Valley man named Kel-
Ter assaulted q neighbor last fall. For
the offence he was taken TO court in
December; he was found guilty. He
was not able to pay the costs, and in
default of payment of costs was sentenc-
ed to term in the county jail. Last
Thursday Deputy Sheriff Wilson was
greatly surprised to hear Keller cry and
sob. When asked for the cause of the
distress he said that he had just received
word that his wife had died. 1t was a
perplexing moment for the Deputy Sher-
iff. He was stunned into complete
silence, in wonderment as to which of
the three wives of the prisoner had
died.
The people of Miffiintown were a
good deal moved last week, by informa-
tion that was made, before Squire Park
er in this borough against Joseph l..
Deering. The information was brought
by Samuel Pennebaker, of Beale town
ship. The charge is, that Deering raised
the value of, and heightened the time,
for the payment of promissory exemp-
ton note. Pennebaker alleges that the
note he signed with Deering was for
seven dollars, and was given for period
of six days. The note, as it appears
now, is for the sum of seventy dollars,
and for period of sixty days. Pro-
ceedings against Deering for the same
offense as that charged by Pennebaker
have also been brought before Squire
Richard Doyle, at Johnstown, by J. H.
Rodgers. These several financial opera
tions made case for the officers of the
law, and Sheriff Kelly went to Johns
town to see Mr.. Deering, to have him
arrested. He was held in $1,000, bail.
