the Ohio man delighted in those days.
In 1895, one Hugh Ross. "late Of Ham.

Esq, charging him with stealing pref.

From Reuben Arnold one wise,
together with other tools and iron;
from Saml. Davis enc anvil, two pillow

Whiteside's silver watch with a china

The dispositions Of Col. Whitley and
others are on file, conclusively prov

Ohio; but I didn't peruse the record
to see what was the result Of the pros

Ross according TO his deserts.
HORSE THIEVES.
Our ancestors seem to have had q
special spite against horse thieves and
to have been decidedly expert in trail
ing them up, recovering their proper.
ty and bringing the rascals to Justice.
/ find records Of Numerous cases where
such fellows we're followed long dis
tances and captured and brought back
under circumstances that would seem
to make success impossible. In the
year 1894 mare was stolen from Col.
VIM. Montgomery, near Stanford. A
man BY the name Of Powell was gus.
pected and was tracked by one Ben.
Cooper all the way to the Iron Works
in Clark county and there overtaken.
Upon being questioned he denied the
charge, of course, and denied that his
name was Powell. But Cooper, new
srtheless, arrested aud tied him, and
while being tied he acknowledged that
bis name was Powell. He was asked
where his own horses we're but refused
to tell. Cooper found out that Powell
had turned some horses loose in the
woods and learned the course they
had gone, and went in pursuit Of
them and after considerable hunting,
found them and drove them up TO the
Furnace where he had left Powell.
Cooper being satisfied, notwithstand.
ing his protestations Of innocence, that
Powell was guilty, took him and a
mare which he supposed to be Mont
gomery's and started back to Stanford,
and on his way met Col. Montgomery
at Little Mountain, who was also in
pursuit of Powell and who at once rec
ognized the mare as his own. So Mr..
Powell went up the spout. "
In 1903 one Martin Kimberlin stole
q horse in this county and was pur-
sued and captured with the horse on
Clinch River in Tennessee, and brought
back and convicted.

signed a general remonstrace to any and all persons being granted license. Four applications were then filed at the Commissioners office, and we are not so unkind as to say it applied to any one person. At the time of the hearing of the remonstrance by the Commissioners, no special objection wLs made to MT Tucker, nor unftness claimed to exist, and in proof of this fact, no objection was made at the time of his filing his second and druggist application. It is fact to his credit that he was not pros ecuted for selling without license, as were others. The prominent citizens have not complained of his selling i'm properly, and are satisfied that in con- ducting the saleof intoxicating liquors, want will not come to any home, and drunkenness will not walk the streets of Falls Village, in consequence thereof.

FALLS VILLAGE, Dc. 16.

MR EDITOR: In the NEWS of the 18th, I saw mention of meeting of the Coun- ty Commissioners of Dec. 9th, with an extract from the Enquirer, which con tains manifest injustice to several of the citizens of Falls Village. If the editor of the Enquirer will be more painstak- ing he can learn that MT Timothy Tuck
 CT did not apply for a license for sale of ':hquors to be dr'uoak on the premises, <" or used for any purpose on his premises except for compoundlng drugs: The facts are: Mir Tucker made application for license for sale of ''liquor not to be drunk on the premises, ard another application for so-called druggist h- cense;" and he was granted druggist license on the 9th inst. The Enquirer does further injustice by trying to ere ate the impression that prominent cltl- zens recommending MT Tucker, ''had previously signed a remonstrance against licensing" him. The facts are: | Owing to the indiscriminate sale of liquor in Falls Village the past year, after failure of a remonstrance to license ing certain parties, and the use of undue influence to carry the whole of the town for license, about eighty of the promi- nent citizens of Canaan, feeling that the vote of the town was asot e .faig election,

GANAAN VALLEY LETTER.
CANAAN VALLEY, Dec, 15, 1882.

' 1C,
 DEAR SIR:-We often have occasion to remove or destroy some ancient land mark without any criminal intentions. For instance; cutting down old trees that have stood through the memories of several generations. I am great friend to trees and 1t has been my lot to cut down a number of very ancient ones. I have just cut an apple tree that was four feet through, and it made five sled loads of wood; perhaps three cords. took out of the top four years ago 8 good load of wood. Ruloff Rood has just cut an apple tree full as large and I think larger Now these trees must be over one hundred years old. I have known them for forty years and they were then the largest trees of the kind I knew of. They were common ungrafted fruit. Mine bore sweet apples and that is one reason why I left it standing so long. People do not realize the real cost of keeping such old mammoth trees. If we put the cost at two dollars annually, and my tree stood in one of my best fields for crops, think 1t is as low as I can put it and be reasonable; 1t makes the keeping of the tree 8 great tax. It has borne some few years quite little supply of fruit, but not enough to half cover the damage 1t has done. Now with my experience in fruit raising, trees should never be allowed to stand to be over fifty years of age. Eight years ago I visited the western part of New York state and l asked friend there what they did with the old apple trees? for I was surprisd to see most all the trees were young to appearance over thirty years old. He gave me in reply to my inquiries some of the best of advice. He said to me, i've cut down all of the old trees" The trees grow more thrifty in that region than they do in this part of Connecticut and they keep no old trees. confined my inquir- ies mostly to Orleans Go. I came home with new ideas about orchard raising Apples for market must be picked and when we come to the nice and want to make the business profitable, we must keep young trees. They bear better fruit, it keeps better, picks easier, bruises less where the fruit falls and when we come to sum up all the evidence in favor of young trees, we then see that it does not pay to keep old trees. have cut ten or more shade trees, oak and chestnut, that were iso- lated shades, some of them the only tree in lot of eight or ten acres. They were all over a century old, measuring four feet through and some of them six feet People have said to me, how could you cut down such trees? They were quite sentimental about 1t. The more such trees I cut the less sentiment I feel about them. No one knows what dam age such tree does until they have some of my experience. One oak cut three years ago with at least four cords of wood on it was good sample. The extra crops for large circle around where the shade extended was proof that told story. I could go far on this sub- ject, but little said sometimes causes much thinking. I think every old tree suffered to shade crops is serious dam age and nuisance.
 Respectfully yours,
 WILLIAM SARDAM.

old "RObs, Sings and DIes.

The Hartford Times says: During the past eight years Mrs Bennett of Canaan, in this state, has owned a beau tiful Virginia Nightingale. She did not know how old he was when she pur- chased him. It was bird of beautiful red plumage, and it's song of varied and sweet notes made it favorite. To Mrs Bennett the bird was pet. She named it 'Bob;" and when in an adjoining room she said Bob, do you want a fy?" the bird would ruffle it's feathers, and respond with whistle, or some little note, manifesting his delight, which his mistress understood. Bob was fond of flies, and in the summer time he destroy ed good many. Three or four years ago Mrs Bennett found very young chirping bird, Ia little brown ''chip") in the grass, and put it in Bob's cage Bob was pleased and he took the great est care of the poor little orphan ''Chip," feeding and watching over it carefully. He brought the little thing to maturity. Last year Mrs B. found another stray chip, and put it in with Bob. The old bird greeted it cordially, but the chip did not respond with affec- tion. It pecked at Bob, ruff1ed its feath- CTS in anger, and evinced no gratitude at Bob's attempted kindness. The old nightingale, who had become aged and was not as sprightly as formerly, went to his perch and looked down gravely and with disgust upon the little wretch of 'Chip'' as much as to say, you don't de- serve paternal nursing, and you will die if left to yourself; and the miserable lit tie thing did die, for Bob would have no
 gre to do with him. Last August Bob m- "- He rolled over upon his back had tlO .his legs. His mistress was ana a11 stuck a1 uR lho >@ked his feet in warm water, gave him pepp., a little, sit aconite pills. He revived aud stu ting upon his perch solemnly ~oth pidly. His plumage was not so sm.
 as formerly. His sweet notes no longer charmed the household. Not a note escaped his throat for three months. Old age had mastered Bob, and pepper corns could not rouse him to the sing ing pitch. But one day in November, lence, Bob suddenly broke out in full tune, and he sang his old notes over again. Mrs Bennett says in his best estate the bird never sang more sweetly nor cheerily. Full, musical and lively was every note; and she was delighted at what appeared to be complete re- covery of her pet bird. But the moment he had finished the last of his round of notes, beautifully and sweetly, Bob turned over upon his back and died! Mrs Bennett was grieved. She put her pet in nice box, covered him with velvet, and buried him by the side of a ; favorite rose-bush. If birds re-appea1 in the next world, Bob will lead the flock with thrilling bird-songs.

Marvellous Cure of Stone in the Bladder
 Large Stone Removed by "Ken-

 From the Pttsfeld tMass) Eagle.
 Stone in the Badderis very dangerous aff~ ment; but many most remarkable cures have of late been wrought by "Kennedy's Favorite Reme- dy"-the invention ol Dr. Kennedy of Ron- dout, N. Y. Another striking case is now added to the list. MT. Peter Lawler, of Dalton, Mass, states in letter to Dr. Kennedy that he had been troubled with bladder complaint for IA yearr and had consulted at different times seven physi- clans; but nothing beyond temporary alignment of the lain had been worked. Towards the end of last January MT. Lawler called on Dr. Ken. nedy. Sounding him, the doctor "struck stone" He decided that MT. Lawler should first try the "FaVorite Remedy" so as, if possible, to avoid an operation. And here is the remarkable result: "Dear Doctor Kenncdy-The day after l came home I passed two gravel stones, and am doing nicely now. If you would like to zee the stones | will send them to you" This letter bears data "Daltou, Mass, Feb. 3th," and is signed Potter Iawler" The stones, which are so large as to war rant for "Kennedy's Favorite Remedy" the claim that it is the most successful specific for Stone yet discovered are now in Dr. Kennedy's possessions Jucidentaliy Mr. Iawler also states that the "Fav. orite Remedy" at the same time cured him of stubborn case of Rheumatism ,eand it is fact that m nil acctiona arising out of disorder of the verox ,rinnry or-nns 1t is Q searching remedy and works r,nYy .'ou- horofs.

Egypt, The followers OF Colonel Ara
bi are said to be earnestly watching
for the promised deliverer while in
Tripoli, a correspondent of the Times
evidently possessed of unusual infor-
nation, declares that Ell Mehdi, the
sacrosanct head Of the SenousSla com
munity, which has monasteries by the
hundred in North Africa, and even
in Arabia and Syria, and is obeyed
by Mahommedan tribes of the Desert
whose very names are unknown to
Europeans, claims to be the long cX,
pected Teacher, and promises to pro-
claim himself openly to the world on
November 18th, 1882. A prophc-
cy to that effect has been carefully
circulated for some years through the
Moorish-M ussulman world, and is
thoroughly known all through the
South Mediterranean, from Aleppo to
Mogador. 1t is believed to have
been drawn up by Senoussi, the Al
gerine Moor,-a Shereef, we believe,
or descendant Of the Prophet, though
we are not quite certain,-who, IN
1850, founded the great organisation
which now disputes with the Turks
the sovereignty Of southern Tripoli,
and which, the correspondent says,
supplies the material resources for the
resistance offered by the Tunisian
tribes TO the French invasion. The
nroDhecv il cOuched in these words :
"On the first of the month of Mohar-
ram, in the year 1900 (12th Novem-
Der, 1882, will appear, The Ell " 49,,
or MeSSig'. He will be exr ny for
ty years of age, and of nob,e bearing.
One arm will be longer than the
other; his fathers name will be No
manned, his mothers Fatima, and he
will be hidden for a time prior to his
manifestations" Ell Mehdi has the
physical peculiarly referred 10, his
right arm reaching to his knee, and
he has for four years been hidden
from all eyes in religious retreat.
Prophecies of this kind, circulating
among u people always ready to be-
Iieye, and just now excited alike by
European pressure, bytheSultan'sMis-
.sio4iaries, who are preaching the unity
of Mahommedans everywhere, and
by a wave of religious revival, will be
very oproducet Observation-Disclosures
There was no doubt among those
who carefully examined the great
movement called the Indian MutIuy
that the uprising, though not caused
by the prophecy that the East Indie
Company should cease to reign iii
one hundred and one years from
P~lassey--a prophecy c%uriously ttll-
flled-was accelerated by it, and
owed to it much of its temporary
The family and tribal

Mecca may prove obstacles to a
Moorish claim but Islam is essenti-
ally democratic, a wave Of popular
feeling may prove irresistible, and
we,think it quite reasonable to ex-
pect that a Mehdi will appear, and
that his first habitat will be North
Africa, where the tribes are all OF
one firth and language, all martial,
all expectant, and where, but fer the
French soldiers, any considerable
Mussulman leader would have no
