LAWIESS DEED
In Marion COunty-A Robber Defes
Arrest.


Arrest.
A lawless piece of business occurred in
Marion county last week, the perPetrator
of which scattered his would.be captors at
pistols mouth. A colOred man, says the
Fairmont Index, who had been at work
near Benwood, but had quit and was on
his way to StauntOn, Va, was met by
man named Henry Nuzam, a short distance
west of Valley Falls, and engaged him in
conversation. Just what they talked
about we are not able to say, but they were
seen standing close together by some par
ties who CHANGED TO be passing along
the road As soon as the par.
ties were out OF sight, Nuzum at
tackled the negro, knocking him down
twice, and then proceeded 10 rob him o. SiO
all The money he had. After threatening
the unfortunate negro with dire vengeance
if he made any complaint against him
anywhere, and divul2ing 10 him the fur
ther pleasing information that If he meh-
toned the matter in that community the
citizens would deal summary with him
(the negro. be permitted the negro 10
proceed on his way. Arriving at valley
Falls the negro related the occurrence,
and party OF citizens repaired to the resi-
dence Of Nuzum and demanded the
stolen property. which was speedily
handed over by the would-be highwaymsn;
By this time some Of the party suggested
that they take Nnzum into custody until
a warrant could be obtained. bot this de-
sign was frustrated by Nuzum promptly
drawing a revolver and opening FIRE on the
crowd, whose members believing discretion
the better part of valor. took to their heels.
; a warrant was afterwards issued by Squire
Hirons. but so far Nuzum has succeeded
in evading the officers. Suzum resides
near Valley Falls. and is said 70 be pretty
tough customer to tackle, but We hope
soon TO chronicle his arrest.

Tragic End OF Hungarian Family.

A peculiarly sad and shocking do
nestle tragedy is reported from the town
of Batyu in Hungary. The keeper of a
crossing on the East Hungarian Railway
near that town happened to win few
days ago some hundreds of forms in a
lottery. The poor fellow, who had never
seen such large sum of money in his
life, took the bank notes home and
amused himself in turning them over,
forming plan upon plan for their dis
posal. All at once train was signaled
and he rushed to his post, leaving the
precious roll behind him. AS ilI-luck
would have it his little daughter was
playing in the room at the time. Struck
by the peculiar appearance of the notes,
having rarely if ever seen one before,
and not knowing anything whatever of
their value, she proceeded to use them as
a plaything. and presently flung them
into the fire, where they were burned to
ashes. Just then the father returned.
missed the notes and learned what had
become of them. In his fury he struck
the child violent blow which stretched
her lifeless on the floor. The mother,
who was giving bath in an adjoining
room to her second child, an infant,
rushed in on hearing the disturbance,
picked up the little girl and tried to re-
store her TO consciousness. Her efforts
were vain; the child was dead. She flew
to the bath in which she had left the in

child was drowned in the bath. The

Beat Tea for the Sick.

DR.. Ridges gives the following direc-
tions for preparing an article which
really is what it purports to be and far
superior to any of the so-called extracts
of meat:
81. Take one pound of lean gravy
beef and cut it into pieces as small as
possible A sausage machine will &C
complish this most thoroughly and thus
save half the time of step No. 5, while
it will enable you to extract all the
goodness of the meat more thoroughly.
SO. Place the meat in preserve jar
with one saltspoonful of salt and put the
jar in saucepan sufficiently large to al
low the lid to be placed on when the jar
is in it.
..3. Mix in large jug equal quanti-
ties Carefully measureD of boiling
water and cold water.
a. Put half pint of this mixed
water into the jar which contains the
meat, and pour sufficient of the re-
mainder into the saucepan outside the
jar to reach as high as the water inside
the Jar. then put the lid on the saucepan
and place it on the hearth, not on the
fire or on the hob. 1t will do no harm
to cover the saucepan with cloth or
anything which will keep in the heat.
rs. The meat must remain in the jar
from three-quarters of an hour to two
hours. according to the fineness to which
it has been chopped. being stirred every
quarter of an hour. If cut into pieces a
little smaller than dice one hour and
haif will be sufficient. At the end of
this time take out of the jar and strain
through hair sieve or through muslin
with gentle pressure.
Sc. Place the red meat juice thus OBJ
tanned in a small saucepan, and heat it
boiling while you stir. 1t will turn
brown and curdle. Strain off the solid
flakes and rub these thoroughly with a
small teaspoonful of arrowroot or corn
flour, then boil these again five minutes
with the liquor which was strained off,
and set it to one side for the present.
az. Now take the meat which was left
in the sieve at the end of step No. 5, and
put into saucepan with quart of boil
ing water, cover. and let it simmer over
slow fire for three hours; then allow it
to boil and strain Immediately.
''8. Now boil this strained liquor down
to half pint.
49, Then mix this half pint with the
half pint left at the end of step No. 6,
and you will have one pint of strong
beef tea containing all the soluble por-
ton of the meat. -PhGYT1aceattedI Jour

in the large cities of England is rapidly
depreciating in value. There were thirty
public houses within half mile of Liv-

be hoped that this state of affairs is due

A LOVELY SCENE.

We stood at the bars as the sun went down
Behind the hills on summer day.
Her eyes were tender, and big and brown,
Her breath as sweet as the new-mown hay.
Far from the west the faint sunshine
Glanced sparkling off her golden hair,
Those calm, deep eyes were turned toward
mine,
And look of contentment rested there.
Ieee her bathed in the sunlight flood,
see her standing peacefully now;
Peacefully standing and chewing her cud,
As rubbed her ears-that Jersey COW.
