Larceny and Receiving stolen GOODS.
Howard Clair, Ephraim Brosey, John
Balmer and George FOltz, young men
belonging to Mastersonville, this county,
were arrested by Officer Eicholtz yester-
day, brought to Lancaster, and committed
to prison to answer for larceny, and re-
ceiving stolen goods. 1t appears that the
store of J. NJ. S. Masterson, in MastersOn-
vile, was robbed of a number of articles
some time ago, including several revOlvers.
The cigar mandatory of John J. Thome,
was also robbed of about 1000 boxed
cigars. One of the thieves was indiscreet
enough to sell one or more of
the stolen pistols at a rediculously
low price. This aroused suspicion.
An investigation followed and the thief
gave companions away. Some of the stolen
property was found in the possession of
the accused, and one of the party, having
made clean breast of the affair, there ap-
pears to be clear case against the others.
They will have hearing before Alderman
Spurrier at 10 O'Clock Wednesday.
Another Larceny Case.
John Myers, au assistant attendant at
the lower county hospital, went on drunk
last week and was discharged on Satur

plate containing four The plate was
loosened in his mouth and, with the two
remaining teeth, was swallowed, lodging
in his threat. He proceeded to his home
and four physicians we're summoned.
Their efforts 20 remove the teeth were in
effectual, as the proper instruments were
not procurable, though one of the physi-
clans declared his ability to remove them
if Mr.. Beck would allow him to administer
chlnroform. To this Mr.. Beck objected.
In the meantime the teeth had worked
downward to near the stomach. and were
felt there with an instrument inserted by
Dr.. Murphy. The unfortunate man suff
cred greatly from the effects Of his strange
accident. He was unable to eat anything,
but could drink little water. DR.. Agnew
on Saturday afternoon, after somewhat
difficult operation, brought up the teeth.
Mr.. Beck has not been seriously iDj ured
by the singular occurrence.

Too Big to be EOSSed.

The Philadelphia Times, which SAW
in Mr.. Pattison's appointment Of
Mr.. Cassidy for his attorney gen
eral only suicide for the admin
istration, can see nothing better
ahead of the party of Mr.. Pattison and
Mr.. Cassidy than total wreck and ruin.
And, in it's view, whatever the efforts of
the organization, " Cassidyism will re-
store Pennsylvania to Republicanism
and make Cameron's reelection to the
Senate among the possibilities of ;he
future"
The efforts of the Times in behalf of
political reform and its services to the
cause which elected Mr.. Pattison,
and the success of which made
possible Mr.. Cassidy's appointment.
are not to be underestimated. None
know them better, and during the
campaign none appreciated them more,
than Mr.. PattisOn and Mr.. Cassidy.
When some of those who applaud the
appointment which the Times condemns
were most lukewarm in support of Mr..
PattiSOn's election, if not most hostile
to it, the kindly and efficient services of
the Times were eagerly sought. What
ever its present or future relations to
the state administration, this is not to
he forgotten. Nor is it to be denied
that some eminent and respectable
Democrats, who were more serviceable
in the campaign than those who now
have greater confidence from the ad-
ministration, share, in greater or less
degree, the apprehensiOns of the Times.
Nevertheless, earnest Democrats who
take broad view of the future
of their party are not compelled to
share the fears of the Times.
The appointment of Mr.. Cassidy is
universally regarded as the personal
choice of Mr.. Pattison, upon whom the
chief responsibility for it must rest, and
who must bear the blame and mainly
suffer the shame, if it should prove po-
litical miscarriage, which it is not certain

who, from the returns thus far received
is decidedly the most numerous outlaw
that the boundless resources of the prai-

IT is gratifying to hear that the Legisla-
ture will adopt a resolution that it's em-
ployees shall do in person the work they
are paid for. This is exactly right. No
work no pay. Constant attendance upon
their posts Of duty and no delegation of
their functions should be exacted from
every man on the pay roll.
THE now assured certainty of Senator

much further and fare far worse than by

WITHOUT any very violent surface agi-

THE appeal of our German fellow
citizens for aid in behalf of their country

afflicted have done much for the develop.

TIE perils of travel have a vivid it,
lustration in the reports we print to day
of the sinking of the steamer Cimbria,
involving loss of several hundreds of
lives, while runaway locomotive out
in California brings death in shocking
form to twenty persons. BY land and
by water the travelling public appear to
be encircled roundabout by deadly
dangers which Il proper degree Of pru-
dence would probably have averted. The
distressing catastrophes recorded in to-
days prints call for Il rigid investigation
of the causes leading to the frightful
sacrifice of human life.
