Snow Shoe was the scene of slight
disturbance on last Saturday evening, and
one of the results Of the affair was that a
number of strangers, who undertook 10
run John UEzle's hotel in their own way,
became so we'll acquainted with John that
they will be careful how they invade his
premises in the future. 1t appears that
four persons, all new -comers to Snow Shoe,
went to Uzzle's hotel with the avowcd
purpose of "clcaning out the house" John
demurred to this, and after considerable
trouble succeeded in getting them out of
the house and barring the doors against
them. They then made An assault upon
the house with stones this assault was
met with three discharges from Win
chester rifle, and ended the riot. One of
the four, whose name we have not learned
received wound in the foot and was
slightly grazed on the side Of the head
by the shots. We understand that
public opinion in Snow Shoe is almost
unanimous in sustaining Mr.. Uzzle in the
means he used to protect himself and his
property from the intrusion and violence
Of these rowdics. On Monday the parties
were arrested, and, in default Of bail,
were lodged in Jail to await trial for their
disturbance of the peace and quiet Of Snow
Shoe.

day evening last Being lady endearci
to the community by the strongest ties Of
afectionate regard, earned by kindness in

sudden demise Of this excellent lady, can
better be imagined than described Mrs.
Humes, was, up 70 the moment Of her
death, in her usual apparen, good health
and having been out making calls upon
friends, stepped into tho residence Of her
brother-in-lAw, Adam Hoy, Esq, to see
her sister. While in pleasant convcrsa-
tion with Mrs. Hoy, and without any pre-.
monition that the dread monster was then
in waiting to invade the sanctuary and
claim victim, she Suddenly placed her
hand to her heart and fell over, expiring
instantly. The occasion was n sad ono 20
those who loved her SO we'll but they
may be comforted in the reflection that
death found one who had already made
ample preparation for tho pale messenger.
Mrs. Humes was the fourth Of five daugh.
ters Of the late James ID. Harris, who for
many years was one Of our most prominent
and cherished citizens, but who died when
they were yet young. Three of these

survive and reside in Bcllefonte To these
sorrowing sisters and to the bereaved hus.

carriage was about being brought out,
when the horses stepping on the trap door
forced its iastenings and the door giving
way they both landed without injury in
the ice house beneath. The carriage was
not broken the horses fell about ten feet
through an aperture not more than feet
square, breaking the harness, but causing
no damage either to the carriage or them
selves. The large crowd which quickly
collected were astounded at the almost
miraculous manner in which the horses
landed in their perilous position. They
were rescued with infinite difficulty. The
entire front Of the barn had to be removed,
but there was plenty Of assistance and the
two horses were soon on terra 0r5Ha. II
was a most wonderful occurrence and the
most learned among our ,ara,s could not
explain how the horses ever accomplished
