Jacob Livengood is wealthy Dunkard

Jacob Livengood is a wealthy Dunkard
of Salisbury, Pa, and he seems to have
obeyed the command of his church to
know nothing of the wicked world, Two
men made his acquaintance. One was ''the
Rev. VIM. Miller" and the other ''ex-Judge
Wilson," and their pretended errand was
to interest Mr.. Livengood in Wilson
candidacy for congress. They told him
about wonderful curly haired horse on
exhibition in circus side show. and took
him in to see it, but managed to show
him bunko game. They suggested that
a large amount of money might be won,
and turned over to church uses. Liven-
good fell into the snare. and lost $4,000.

An oID-rIuE SUPERSTITION.
HOW THE PEOPLE OF EBENsBUR6 wRFsTI. ED
WITH wHOOPING COUGH sCOURGE
MORE THAN FIFTY YEARS AGO.


In conversation the other day with cit
izen of this place who was born and raised
IN Ebens6urg and Is now upward of sixty
years of age, the fact that small pOx has
made its appearance in our midst brought up
the subject OF epidemics In general and re-
minded our old friend of a rather singular
incident which occurred IN this community
when he was quite a small boy, and which
may be worth narTating. 1t seems that
whooping cough was raging among the little
folks of our town at the time Indicated and
that superstition prevailed here as else
where, and may even yet prevail in some To-
calities that If children afflicted with OF liable
to the disease were passed five or six times
under the belly Of a donkey otherwise
known as Jack, that a speedy cure or a
sure escape from the dreaded scourge would
be the result As lEck would have it a don
key arrived in town about this time on its
way to Pittsburg, and as no difficulty was eX-
penenced in inducing the owner 10 permit
the experiment TO be tried the animal was
properly secured In a stable which then
stood on the spot now occupied by the ware
room OF Messrs. V s. Barker & Bro, and to
this place all the children of the town. or at
least all OF those whose parents had faith in
the panacea, were brought and put through
the 'jassackical'' process in raDid succession,
a man on one side Of the donkey passing
each child the requisite number of times to
another man on the opposite side. that meth
cd OF putting the Youngsters through the
process being as essential to the cure or pre-
VeuLlOn OF tne disease as any other part or
programme. At least that was the way it
was done on the occasion to which we refer
our informant not being sure but that he
came in for his share of the treatment, and
while there are no doubt plenty of people
nowadays who would laugh at the strange
conceit Of those who preceded them more
than half century ago, it is a fact easily
demonstrated that in this enlightened age
fully as many can be found who take as
much stock as their forefathers did i'm meth
DDS lust ridiculOuS for the afleUpd purp M
prevention of nearly all the ills that flesh Is
heir to as the stamping out of a whOoping
cough epidemic by the strange process we
have attempted to describe. Whether the
relief sought for through the aid OF Mr.. Jack
was obtained OF not our informant was una
bic to say, being too young at the time to
note the result, but certain it is that if the
ScOurge ceased its ravages tha poor donkey
had about as much to do with it as Balaam's
ass or Barnum's big elephant, the renowned

1t appears from some remarks made by
Judge Dean at the Huntingdon county court,
two weeks ago. when the question Of grant
ing license was before him, that there arc
only nineteen licensed hotels in that county
one hotel for about every seventeen hun
dred inhabitants. This is an exceptionally
small number when compared with most Of
the other counties. and the wonder with us
Is how It happens that in county containing
so few taverns such constant bitter and
unree enting warfare can be kept up between
tie two divisions OF the grand old Republi-
can party, as any one can see for himself
who reads the weekly Issues of the Globe and
OpuFNUs- llit BT9iDS OF Iie Two TlNdl IaCIiUnS.
There must be some other cause than the
nineteen hotel bars for the war TO the knife
and the knife to the hilt that has been raging
for weeks between the friends Of the Globe
and the friends of the Journal and all about

lican State convention What can it be ?

the rails near his own home when the train
approached him, but it was then too late to
save him from the shocking death which so
speedily overlook him. How he came to be

DREAMS THAT CAME TRUE.-Those ac-
quainted with our worthy tOwnsman, Mr..
Charles Owens, must have noticed that he
walks with peculiar sort of limp to one of
his legs. The manner in which this lame
ness was produced, as related to us by Mr..
Owens himself, was with the attendant cir
cumstances sufficiently strange to bear reci-
tai Mr.. Owens came to this place from
Wales in May, 1910, and soon afterward Sc
cured a Job along With Mr. VIM D. Davis
(killed few years since on the railroad by
being run over by the cars) and several 9TH
er persons clearing the timber from piece
OF land short distance east of town. At
the MONDAY hour of a certain day, after par
taking of the edibles they had with them
Messrs. Owens and Davis reclined beneath
the shade of tree which was about to be
felled and from which some half-dOZen of
chips had already been cut, aud being some
what fatigued both fell asleep. Shortly af
JerWard Mr.. owens a woke and told his com
panion that he had had dream wherein he
saw the tree under which they were lying
fall with its full weight upon them but the
only effect the narration had on either was
to create a desire for another nan. A second
and third time the dream was dreamed
and related, and almost simultaneously with
Its last occurrence down came the tree with
a crash upon the PROSTATE forms of the two
meu reclining beneath it. Mr.. Davis eScaped
with a few slight scratches, but Mr. Owens
was less fortunate. In addition to some Sc
we're bruises his right leg was broken, and
that is the reason why the identical limp
which, after the lapse Of nearly forty 1.-TWO
years, is still percaptble in his comings and
goings This story may sound like the echo
Of an old superstition, but we are assured
by Mr.. Owens, who is man Of uudisputed
yeracity, that il is true in all essential partic-
ulars. The mishap occurred about two
weeks after his arrival in this place from his
native land, Wales, and must have been
looked on by Mr.. Owens as most inhospita-
bic welcome to the locality which became
and remains his permanent home.

Mr.. ISAAC CRAWFORD died at the county
almshouse on Saturday last, aged about GA
years. The deceased came to this place from
FTankstown, Blair county, in 1854, and from
that time up to about two years ago, with the
exception OF four years during which Mr.
John FltZharris occupied his property, be
was engaged in the hotel business. A stroke
of paralysis about two years ago rendered
him an almost helpless invalid. No man in
Jhe county was better known at one time
Unan he was, and his many good traits of
character made him very popular as a land
loId, and brought him a large share of public
patronage. Misfortune. however, came upon
him and stripped him of all his worldly pos
sessions. II Is wife and a grown-up son and
daughter survive him, and reside in Johns
town.

THE SMALLPOX IN OUR MIDST AT LAST.
On Sunday last our borough authorities
were officially notified Of the presence in this
community Of three cases Of c0nfuent small
pOx, the afflicted ones being young children
of VIM Roberts, cOlored, living on the out
skirts Of town in the East ward. The much
dreaded disease seems TO have been intro
duced by bringing to the house from Johns
town various articles Of clothing infected
with the virus, and the only thing to be won
dered at, If not regretted, now that the dis
ease has found lOdgment in our midst is that
the member Of the family who is responsible
for its presence has thus far escaped the con-
taglon. The three little sufferers are Vim
cent, aged Q years, Alice (adopted) whose
age IS about the same age, and Valife aged
6. DR.. Kennedy, the attending physician. is
doing all in his power to control the disease
and cOnnne il to its present locality and the
probabilities are that his efforts will prove
successful. The older bOy was vacciDated
few years ago, and as a consequence the
attack IS comparatively light and his recov-
cry assured As neither of the others were
ever vacclnated, their chances are of corIrse
not so good, though the condition of All ia
much better than could be expected under
circumstances so depIOra bic The father Of
the family works in JOhnstOwn the u1tber
has had the smallpox, and such of the chill
dren as are not afflicted with the disease have
been vaccinated and are now considered safe
from the infection. The borough authorities
have Quarantined the family whose wants
Will be fully supplied, and have adopted all
other needful precautions to guard against
the spread of the cOntagiOn. Besides this
the attending physician desires us to saw
that he changes his clothing entire not far
from the house before and after visiting his
patents and as no one but himself is low
ed to enter she house there is every reason to
hope that the lOathsOme disease will be con-
hned to the three little unfortunately are
already afflicted with it. God grant, that
such may prove to be the case
