Ten minutes later Tom received an an
swer that the man he caused to be arrested
was wellknown Judge, and not the cul

Tom, overcome with shame and NORTH

Eve shall see" and Mr. Sloman seized
his hat and left the Office.
During his fathers absence, Tom sat and
gazed out of the window with most dole
full expression of countenance and without
uttering word.
Nearly an hour passed before Mr.. Slo-
mans return. As he entered the Office at
last, both Tom and | looked eagerly into
his face
No news?' asked Tom.
None but what | received from the con
ductor of The westward bound train which
arrived at the station while | was there.
He said that your friend. the conductor of
the train on which you came from New
York, was very much embarrassed by the
mistake YOU made in telegraphing him that
the old gentleman whom you described had
taken your package Of money. He was
very angry when he was told of your sus-
picions, and soon everybody in the ear
knew all about il. The passengers, of
course took his part, as he was known by
some Of them. and the conductor was abused
right and left. The conductor, however,
feels almost certain that the man who sat
with YOU. and who seemed 80 friendly, had
something to do with the disappearance of
the money. He got out at N, the
next station above here.
Il don't see how or when he could have
taken the money, Tom said Il didn't
lose sight of the package for a minute.
Are you sure p asked his father.
Come 10 think of it, cried Tom, chang
Ing color. Il did lose sight OF it Just for

his valise, aud left the package on the

That was probably when he took the
money" said Mr. Sleman. Well, Tom,

hundred dollars.
Tom said nothing, but hsrked unatier-

The robbery had evidently been care

Of Mr. Lucas habit of gaing to the bank

oh. a wonderful stream is the river Of time'
As it runs through the realm OF tears,
With iaultlesS rythm and musical rhyme
And broader sweep and surge sublime,
And blends with the ocean Of years.
How The winters are drifting like fakes of snow,
And the summers are buds between;
And the years in the sheaf they and they go
on the rivers breast with its ebb aud its aow,
AS it glides in the shadow and sheen.
There's magical isle in the river Of time,
Where the softest OF airs are playing:
There's cloudless sky and tropical cline
And song as sweet as a vesper chime,
And the June With the roses are staying
And the name of the Isle is Long Ago,
And we bury our treasures there;
There are brows Of beauty and bosoms of snow,
There are heaps ofdHst-but we loved them 50!
There are trinkets aud tresses of hair.
There are fragments OF song that nobody sings,
And 4 part of an infants prayer;
There's lutte unswepl and harp without strings
There are broken VOWS and pieces of rings,
And the garments they used 70 wear.
There are hands that we waved when the fairy
shore.
By the mirage is lifted in air;
And We sometimes hear thro' the turbulent roar,
Sweet voices heard IN the days gone before,
when the wind down the river is fair.
oh, remembered for age be that blessed islel
All the day oflife tih nighe
when the evening comes with its beautiful smile
And our eyes are closing in sInmber awhile.
May that greenwood OF soul be in sight

A lady, writing about raising roses in
pots in the house, reaches the conclusion
that the one evident object in buying roses
is to cultivate the frst-class virtues. You
show faith in buying one, cultivate
'.hopen in keeping it, and you will need all
the charity you can muster to keep from
pitching it out doors.

All black varieties of chickens are poorly
suited for market poultry. They show the
pin-feathers, and are not so saleable as white
or light colored fowls. Those with yellow
legs and skin are more saleable than blue or
white-legged ones.

Sudden Death Of DIR. Dieffen-
bacher.

On Wednesday of last week DR.. s. X.
Dieffenbacher, dentist of this town, had
an errand to CooperstowD, Middlesex
Twp, to deliver set of teeth to Mrs.
Donaldson, who lives near that place.
He drove there that morning, taking
his wife with him, and afterwards took
dinner with Mr.. Peter Kramer. Short
ly after dinner he walked over to where
some men were building a stable for
Mr.. Rasley. Here be swung heavy
sledge once or twice, driving wedge
and then while talking to one of the
men, few moments afterwards, sud
denly threw his arms up and saying
"catch me-" fell senseless, and almost
immediately expired. His wife ran to
his assistance, and placing her hand on
his heart found that it was still throb'
bing or rather futtering violently, but
it stopped entirely in q few moments.
Mrs. ID. was placed in her buggy and
brought home and the hearse was sent
for the corpse. On the previous Fri
day the DR.. was at Cooperstown with
his daughter and on the way home
talked seriously to her regarding his
decease, of which he seems to have had a
premonition and explained to her his
arrangements regarding his life insur-
ance. He has lately had two attacks
of numbness or paralysis of the left
arm, one about the middle Of Septem-
ber and the other on the 2nd of of Oc,
tober, and for some years be has been
troubled with lightness and dizziness
of the head. His sudden death, how
ever was entirely unexpected, and was
q terrible blow to his family. He wal
about Sc years of age, and was born il
Luzerne county, and has been in busi
ness in Butler for over twenty years
A post-mortem examination wa
made on Friday evening, when it wa
found that the valves of the heart wer'
not ruptured and that paralysis OF th
heart was the cause of his sudden death
His life was insured in different order
and companies to the amount OF abou
$4,000.

was holding her up in order that she
COULD breath more easily, after having
struggled with bed spell of coughing,
he made the remark that he did not

teaspoonful of Peruna every hour.
She began to improve from the first

Youthful Burglars.

Two young girls, strangers to this
community, and whose ages are abo ut
thirteen and fourteen, were committed
to Jail on last Monday, on q
charge of larceny, preferred by
Mr.. Spohn, of Summit township.
These girls arrived at Mr. Spohn's
home last Saturday evening. They
had been walking, gave their names as
Gilmore, from Freeport, and asked to
stay over night, as they had no money
to pay for nights lodging in Butler.
They left the house next morning about
8 O'Clock, and Mr.. Spohn and his fam
lily went to church about nine, noticing
on their way, the two girls sitting on
the railroad track, reading the Pitts
burgh papers, that they had brought
to the house with them. Mr.. Spohn
and family went to church and after :
wards visited at neighbor's, and did
not get home until four O'Clock that
afternoon when they found that pane
of glass had been removed, the sash
had been raised, the house entered and
some valuable clothing-good dresses,
dolmans, etc.,-stolen. Lying on the
ground, just outside the window were
two of the papers that the girls had
been reading, which convinced Mr.. S.
that they were the thieves. He search
ed the neighborhood for them, unsuc-
cessfully. and then came to Butler that
night and made information before Esq.
Keck, who sent officers down the rail-
roads to Freeport and Bald Ridge,
who not finding them came back, and
hearing from Peter Kramer that he
had passed two girls on the plank road
that morning, started after them and
found them in the woods near Renfrew
City, with the stolen goods in their
possession. They refused to give
their proper names or any information
regarding themselves and were locked
