sold their green tobacco cannot be OBJ

John Warfel. Amos Warfel, Henry Miller,
David Miller and Daniel Rineer.
That the buyers are anxious to secure
tho fine tobacco of the 'S1 crop at the
earliest possible time is unquestionable.
Quite number of them started for the
country bright and early this morning,
bent on buying. There is a good deal Of
risk, both to tho buyer and seller, in bar
gaining for tobacco in the field or on the
poles, and unless contracts are very care.
fully drawn. and very faithfully fulfilled,
there is apt to be bad blood stirred up be.
tween the parties, and not unfrequently
law suits. Growers who have good crops,
need not be in a hurry to dispose of them.
The partial failure Of the crop in this
county, and the general failure in other
states, will have tendency to advance
prices.
We are informed that the Mutual Hail
insurance company, of York, has a men,
bership Of over 12OO-mOstly in Lancaster
and York counties. They will average
perhaps four acres each, which would make
an aggregate of about 5000 acres of tobac.
co insured. The assessment OF members
for damage done by hail has not vet been
fixed, but, it is said, it will be somewhat
heavy as great deal of the tender leaf was
cut to pieces by the recent storms.

Dirty. but Doing u Thriving Business.
There is a gypsy camp about One-half
mile from Leaman Place, the party consist
ing o: one man, two women and about a
half dGZen OF dirty children in half nude
state. A dozen lean cadaverOus-l looking
dogs of all breeds greet the visitor as he
enters the camp. showing their teeth and
growing savaScly. The balance of their
live stock consists of a pigeon, a chicken
and two very poor horses. One of the
women claims to have moro than human
power, and tells fortunes and according
to the number Of people patrOnizing her
person would be led to believe that she is
possessed Of more than superhuman
charms. Be that as it may, she is beseiged
by people of all grades and all classes of
society, among them tho merchant, tho
travelling salesman, tobacco packers, even
down to the school boy, are all anxious to
spend their quarters and take advice from
her glib tongue. The lowest foe is twenty

amount of money he had with him. He

amount for revealing to him the contents
of letter he had in his pocket. He now

individual received all the information he

people drain the country of considerable

parties receive for it is mystery. But as
long as people are willing to be duped by

A few days ago as Herr Schweitzer, the

an exceedingly handsome young lady ap
peared on the threshold. Schweitzer

photographer; with a deferential bow.
'' BY your leave" she rejoined, transfix-
ing him with a steely glance, 81 am not
alone. Two friends are awaiting me out
side your door," So saying, she set a
silver whistle to her lips and blew it
shrilly, whereupon two stately lions
stalked into the apartment, greeting its
proprietor with salutation of grOwls
that made his blood run cold. At a sign
from their youthful mistress, however,
the formidable beasts sat down quietly

fidence from their peaceful demeanor.

A SOFT HEARTED HUSBAND.
Taking His ElOping Wife Back to HI

Taking His Eloping Wife Back to His
Arms.
"John John! forgive me! 1 didn't
know vat vas doing. vas crazy!' Mrs.
Margaret Klein exclaimed as she entered
the private Office of Acting Captain Cad
den in the Butler street police station New
York. Her husband, John Klein, was
waiting for her. MIR. Klein, who owns a
lager beer saloon at No. 273 Smith street,
was deserted by his wife on the evening of
August Sth, when she robbed him of
$1,000 worth of Hudson water bonds,
abOut $500 in cash, all his underclothes
and other property. She had been mar
ried twenty-five years; nevertheless,
II. Cooper. rather good looking
German mechanic, with whom the Kleins
had been intimately acquainted for many
years. The husband appeared before JUS
tice Bergen and procured a warrant for the
arrest Of his wife and her paramour on a
charge of grand larceny. aud the couple
wero traced to Baltimore and thence to
Chicago. There they registered in hotel.
Not being extravagant they had spent only
$50 Of the entire amount taken from Mr..
Klein when they fell into the clutches of
the officers of the law on Tuesday last
Cooper, it is said, had found employment
at his trade, which is that of a carpenter,
and they were looking for rooms to set up
housekeeping.
Eyes, you vas crazy, Maggie, ven you
go off nit dot odder fellew," John rejOin-
ed, with trcmulous voice, as he folded the
sobbing woman to his bosom. "You eat
holdings for six days before You go off
NIT him know dot"
Eyes, John, mine head vas 80 big as dot
for the whole week." and the wife held up
her hands about her head.
Maggie, l have been married to you
for dose twenty-five years. Amt dot
so %
Yes, the woman sobbed.
Have ever been unkind to you %
"No, no.
And you go away from me, and you
take mine money and mine clothes. You
take everything"
Mrs. Klein, who was greatly affected.
pleaded in her defense that she was tho
same as when she went away; that GOep-
per had pursued her persistently. and ut
length persuaded her to run away with
| him, and that in q moment in which she
was in a crazed state she yielded. She was
deeply penitent, and her husband went out
of the police station saying tina he ''would
see about it, " meaning about forgiving his
wife. Not forgetful of her creature COM
fort, he subsequently sent to the station
house, by his little niece, a dinner of
broiled chicken and other delicacies. After
she had done ample justice to her hus.
bands hospitality she was conducted to .
cell to await a hearing.
Cooper, who refused to speak of his adj
venture with Mrs. Klein and Of his future
movements, passed the day alone in lis
cell, reading. His wife. though aware 5f
his arrival. did not call to see him. The
officers who had Mrs. Klein and Cooper
in custody from Chicago, say that he was
assiduous in his attentions to her, ,cndeavor-
ing to anticipate her every wish.
