"A never hesrd-of before sensation WIS
created at East weissport during the week,
by what was rumored to be the clorement
of a certain Well-know residents better
half with All individual known TO be guilty
Of such freaks, and 40 q disturber Of do
mestic happiness. But upon close exsmi
nation the rumor was found to be hoax
and a delusion. Gossipmongers, with
whom this community is blessed, were re-
sponsible for this Misrepresentation and
slander upon the lady involved. It so
happened, and from this tho story started,
that the pnrties accidently went to Phila-
delphia on the same train, unconscious Of
either ones destination. The lamentable
part OF this affair is that when tho lady re
turned, instead Of being received with open
arms by her husband, she was met al the
Threshold by him with curses, bitter re-
proofs aud with the feelings ol on outraged
husband, threatening her not enter again
the bosom Of her home and family. Neither
pleading or the begging for examination on
her part, quieted his wrath, or permitted
her TO return to the family that evening"
but after cooling his wrath, aud being
reasonable man, the Hext day he permitted
a mediator to soloco his unwonted at-
tlons towards his amazed vile the evening
before. OF course an explanation followed,
as treaty Of peace and happiness and the
ugly, vampish gossip proved to be nothing
but the macavaelian-like concoction Of
busy. bodies, who are fair subjects for the
newly named place, Hades. 1t is needless
to say that sersphic-like happiness and con-
tentment in the family reign supreme once
more. Oh, what momenteous things often
hang upon such tender threads. What evil
can be provoked by such snobbish busy
bodies2 Ayel mischief created, happiness
destroyed, hopes broken and the future
suhsoiled by dark and evil foreboding con-
sequences. Let us hope that, in the future,
these gosspers and mischief. makers will
know enough to mind their own business
aud all may be we'll.
The teachers of franklin and the sur
rounding districts spent very profitable,
as we'll as pleasant and interesting week at
the Institute.
Miss Kate Eaches, one OF the fair and
promising bellies OF Franklin, took the no.
ton unto herself that single blessedness
had not as much virtue and recompense
about it us the fslcitus and joys of married
life. hence, che obeyed the divine injunc
ton and took unto herself Mr.. Flicker
More, OF Upper Mauch Chunk. The cere-
monies were performed at the BRIDES resi-
dence on Saturday evening. May neither
the troubled or disturbed waters or the
Yicissitudes of an unhappy union oyertake
emulated by her,they can exclaim with the
poet:
Come, let me take thee to my breast,
And pledge VIC ne'er shall sunder,
And 1 shall spurn as vile as dust
Tho worlds wealth and grandeur.

any of the home chsp', are evriently ly
''snobs" and dudines Of no small order.
