Edward Ankeny, who lives in Beaver
creek township, near Xenia O., met with
a singular and painful accident few
nights ago. He was out near his house
shooting owls. and had killed female
and several young ones, and was on the
lookout for the male, when, quicker than
thought, at an unguarded moment, the in
furiated owl, made desperate by the loss
of its mate and young ones, flew into Mr..
Ankeny's face, tearing an ear badly, and
thrusting one of its talons into his eye,
pulled that member from its socket, and
the doctors say he will lose his sight.

The intermediate Appellate Court Bill.

Following is the context of the bill
which has passed the senate:
The bill creates nine intermediate
courts, or one in each existing cir 3uit,
and new circuit judges, or two ad-
ditional for each circuit, who are to be
appointed by the president. The court
of each circuit will then consist of an
associate justice of the supreme court
allotted to that circuit, three circuit
judges and two of the district judges,
the latter to be designated at each term
for the succeeding term, and, if prac-
ticable, in rotation, and four judges to
constitute quorum.
Appellate jurisdiction is conferred
upon the new court over the DEGREES of
the circuit or district court in causes
involving more than $500, or where
the circuit or district judge shall cer-
tify the adjudication involves ques-
tion of general Importance and the de-
cision of the appellate court on ques-
tions of fact to be conclusive, but re-
views upon points of law may be had
upon writs Of error to the supreme
court when the matter in controversy
exceeds $4,000, the present limitation
being $4,000.
In a criminal case "a writ of error
may be sued out, if allowed by the
Judge of the appellate court, but can
not be granted after an unsuccessful
application to another Judge. If the
judges do not differ, and the case is
within their jurisdiction, their action
is to be final, and q writ may be taken
on the question of jurisdiction, but not
to review the whole case. Exceptional
permission to appeal TO the supreme
court is also granted in questions in
volving the construction of the consti-
tuition or validity of treaty or a fed
eral law.
The bill prescribes the clerical force
of the new court, and fixes the follow
ing as the places at which the first
terms of the courts in the respective
circuits shall be held: Boston, New
York. Philadelphia, Richmond, New
Orleans, Cincinnati, Chicago, st. Louis
and San Francisco. The terms to be-
gin the first Tuesdays in May and No
vember, beginning with November
1882.
1t is also provided the district or cir
cult Judge, who tried the cause, shall
not sit in hearing upon al appeal.

Invitation

Strangers are invited to visit
our store, when in Philadel-
phia, to leave packages there,
and to make a convenience
of it generally. 1t is a handy
place, right by the new City
Hall, at the very center of the
city. 1t answers our purpose
to welcome you, and to pro-
vide for such of your wants
as we can.
The store is about twice
as large as it was two or
three years ago; made SO BY
digging under ground and
building overhead, and by ex-
tension on Chestnut street
Parts of the store are about
as comfortable as any place
can be; and one of the most
comfortable parts is now be-
ing got ready for the rest and
refreshment of strangers
One of the pleasant things
about the store always has
been the fact that you can
walk all over it, either alone
or with a guide, without ever
being asked to buy a thing.
We know very well that most
of you come to US for a good
share of your supplies; why
should we spoil your visit by
intruding goods upon your
attention, when you come to
see the place?
But perhaps you are not
coming to Philadelphia just
now. Very we'll; take a cool
er time. It's cool enough in
the store, when you get here.
You can write for any goods
that you may happen to
want; and get them, proba-
bly,, just as well as if you
were on the spot. Any how,
you know, you can return
whatever you get that you
don't ike.
We sell more sorts oil
things than we can put into
an advertisement. So, what
ever you want, suppose you
drop us a line. Well help
you if we can.
