A Painful Acct lent.


]. D. Bodine Of Malnville met with a
very painful If not fatal accident last Satur-
day evening by the explosion Of gun.
The weapon had been loaded for some time,
and the charge was drawn all but the pow
der. Several caps were used in an attempt
to discharge the powder, but the weapon
hung fire. Bodine then placed the muzzle
in his mouth to blow into the barrel when
the explosion occurred. His mouth and
throat were badly burned, and it WAS feared
for time that his throat would swell shut,
but according to late reports that danger
has past, and the doctors have hopes of
his recovery. Mr.. Bodine is well and favor
ably known through the county, having
served as Mercantile appraiser, and also
through the state as Grand Marshal Of the
Patriotic order Sons Of America. Wehope
to hear soon OF his recovery.

Among the candidates for favor with the
music loving world is the 1vers & Pond
piano.
No better evidence of their merit could
be given than that they have been selected
for use in the New England Conservatory
OF Music at Boston, where they are made.
That the management should purchase
fifty Pianos Of this make is conclusive evil
dence Of their confidence in the instrument.
Had they entertained the least particle of
doubt as to the durability or perfection of
the IvERs & POM PIANOS, they would have
acted more cautiously and purchashd few
Of these Instruments for trial. But this was
not the case; they were entirely satisfied
that the IvRRs & PoND PIANOS were as
nearly perfect as could be made, and hav-
ing arrived at that conclusion, adopted
them for use at their conservatory.
]. Saltzer of this town is agent for these
pianos, and has them on exhibition a; his
ware rooms. From personal examination
the writer is satisfied they are just what
they are re presented to be-

Meyers, the young man who killed
Hufnagle at Nescopeck last July, an ac-
count of which we published at the time,
was sentenced at Wilkesbarre, on Friday
last, to pay fine of $50, and costs, and a
term of six months in the county Jail.
His previous good character, the recon-
mendation Of the jury to the mercy of the
court, and it not appearing that there was
any intention to do serious injury, led the
court to impose this light sentence.

A new use has been discovered for pota-
toes. They can be converted into sub
stance resembling celluloid by peeling
them and after soaking in water impreg-

of this substance, scarcely distingushable
from meershaum. BY subjecting the mass
to great pressure billiard balls can be made
