SERIOUS STAHBING ArFRAY.

town.

Ono Man BADLY Cuts Another at Rchrers.
OH Saturday evening party Of men,
mostly employees of the rolling mill,
among whom were Michael Walsh and
Owen Coneys, We're gathered at DIETRICH S
hotel i'll Rohrerstown. They had all been
drinking and about 10 o'clock Walsh and
Coneys became engaged in 4 quarrel
They fought in the house for time and
then got out into the street.
While there Ccneys pulled knife
and stabbed Walsh several times, infiict-
ing an ugly wound in his face, extending
from his right eye to his chin, another in
his left breast and Il third in the abdomen.
Walsh was carried to his home where he
was attended by physician, who pro
nounccs his wounds very serious, although
he may recover with proper care. After
the fight Coneys fled and came to this city.
He was followed by parties, and he was
found at the Schooner House" near the
depot, where he was arrested by officers
kautZ, Coylc and Flick. He was taken
before Alderman McConomy by whom he
was committed to jail to await the result
of Walsh's injuries.
The injured man is probably 80 years of
age. lie is a resident of ROhrerstown and
is employed at the rolling mill as a night
boss. lie is we'll known in this city where
he has many friends who speak we'll of
him. Coneys is pudder and is said to
be from Philadelphia. He is also over 80
years of age and is considerably larger
that Walsh. He is very rcticeEt concern
ing the affair and refuses to say much
about it, but he claims that he was at
tackled by Walsh and used the knife in
sci: defense

The Power Of Humbug.

An individual who opened small
tavern near the field of Waterloo was
frequently questioned as to whether he
did or did not possess some relics of the
battle, and he invariably and honestly
answered in the negative. But he was
very poor, and one day, while lament
ing to his neighbor not only his poverty
but the annoyance to which travellers
subjected him, his friend cut him short
with:
"Well, make one help the other.
Make some relics"
"But what can l dos" inquired the
man.
"Tell them that Napoleon or Well
ington enter your shop during the bat
tie and sat down in that chair"
Not long after, an English tourist en-
tered the tavern, and, inquiring for
relics, was told the chair story. The
chair was bought at an incredible price.
The next conner was informed that
Wellington had taken drink, and the
Wellington t,imbler was accordingly
sold. The third arrival gazed with
breathless wonder at the nail on which
Bonaparte had hung his nat; the fourth
purchased the door-posts between
which he had entered, and the fifth be-
came the happy purchaser of the floor
on which he had trodden. At the last
advices the fortunate tavern keeper had
not roof to cover his head. and was
sitting on bag of gold in the corner of
deep pit formed by selling the earth
on which the house had stood.

The easiest formula for attaining this
power is to keep the hands down and
look at the sky, while the chest is ex-
banded as much as possible by throw
ing the shoulders well back, in military
attitude. Any man or women of ordi-
nary specific gravity who can do this
can float and breathe, but to do it, SIM
pie as it is, requires practice or train
physical training of the muscles,
and cerebral training in order to ac.
duire that command of all the faculties
without which there can be no treading
of water or other device for keeping
the mouth and nostrils in the air.
