The Perry County Democrat of
June 4th, says +: On last Saturday
night an attempt was made to steal 8
lot of hogs from the pen of Mr. Lewis
Sweger, In Carroll township. Mr.. s.
was not at home, being employed in
Newport. HIS wife was satisfied that
somebody was prowling about the prem
ises because of the constant barking of
the dog, but was afraid to go out to in
vestigate. The next morning FIVE
pigs were missing and the tracks of two
persons, one in his bare feet, showed
that the hogs had been driven across
an oats field, one of which was soon
found badly hurt. The neighbors
turned out and all the hogs we're final.

In their efforts to drive them off.
Last Friday, two Hungarisns at
tempted to board freight car while it
was running. One of the tramps miss
ed his footing, and the cars ran over
both legs close up to his body. The
sccidest took place in Mitilin county,
not far from Manyunk station, and the
unfortunate man was taken to that
place for surgical attention. Drs.
Crawford and Banks we're sent for, but
before they arrived at the station the
spirit OF the man had fed. His re-
mans were brought to Lewistown and
there they were taken in charge by the
authority OF the poor for interment.--
The companion o. the unfortunate man
stated that his deceased friend had
come to America some 3 years since.
He gave the name Of the deceased as
Andrew Johnsky.
Boys and girls have for a generation
been so thoroughly taught in the ques-
ton, "wIll 1t pay 2" that they have al
most lost sight of the higher question, sis
1t honest!" The recent dishonest bus
mess transaction, that have been re-
vealed III almost every community, s.
moug class of people who have been
talking all the time about, "will il
pay I" has revealed the fact, that "will
it pay" is not the higher goal to work
for. 1t leads to dishonest transaction,
humiliation, and disgrace. Stop young
man, every time you propose to enter
upon an enterprise and ask yourself,
sis 1t honest ," 1t will pay YOU, ev-
cry time, to stop and ask that question.

halcyon days of his Arkansas thiev-

under the hands OF his surgeon at
that time. Clayton is not the only
