An exchange says: The troubles
IN the Dunkard Church, which have
been growing for some time, are ia
ken into court at Chambersburg, Pa.
The younger members, who wish to
dress as other people do, to have mu-
sical instruments and the like, claim
to be the real church, and ask the
court to put them in possession of
its property. A long and hot fight
is expected

ment In business at the George Hench

The Lewistown Gazette of last |
Wednesday says; Some time ago a |
gentleman living in McVeytown,
whilst asleep swallowed his artificial
teeth. The plate was composed of
vulcanite about one inch in length
and three fourths of an inch in width,
to which was attached dental teeth
The impression is that the teeth have
passed into the stomach, as at pres
ent it does not retain any food, not
even milk
What clever writers the Democrat
ic editors are; they are tellinng their
readers that Pattlson did not even
attend the convention that nominal
ed him. But that Is telling only one
14th of it, for IA of the clerks of his
Office attended the convention as Iun-
ners for him. Pattison may be very
innocent young man, but the meth
DDS employed TO nominate him look
like machine work.
Neighbors should not fall out about
politics this is free country. OF
course license should not be tolerated,
the man that abuses his neighbor
with vulger speech, or writing should
always be held responsible, and treat
ed as black-guard, and looked upon
as an enemy of decent respectable
people. Neighbors should discuss
the public issues with each other in a
temperate way, and learn to distin-
guish between men who are on the
side of such measures as promote the
general good, and men whose every
day life Is pernicious, and productive
of no good to themselves or society
generally. So don't fall out with
your well behaved neighbor.
! A young man, belonging to this
town had a sensational experience at
the Lewistown encampment. One
evening he was down at the camp,
till after dark. When he left camp
ne concluded to go to the railroad
by the nearest way. The railroad
bridge was the nearest crossing. He
hastened to that bridge, at the bridge,
as he passed guard of soldiers, he
was asked, ''are you in blue" HIS
mind was confused by the challenge,
and he answered, '.yes," when in fact
ne should have said, no, for he was
no soldier. He was Immediately or
dered to halt, and taken in charge
by a guard, and marched OFF to the
) camp, to be put into the guard house
, He did his best to impress his guarc
with the sincerity of the m stake be
had made, in the use of the wrong
answer, but it was all of no avall
He was taken to camp and there sx
amined, and when it was to GER
tainty established that he did no,
, belong to the blues he was released
