Where have they gone :o-.he little girls,
With natural m tanners and natural curls?
Whe love their dollies and like their toys
And talk OF something besides the boys?
Little old women in plenty find,
Mature in manners and old of mind;
Little old flirts who talk of their "beaux"
And vie with each other in stylish clothes.
Little old bellies, who, at nine and ten,
Are sick of pleasure and tired of men.
Weary of travel, of balls, of fun
And find no new thing under the sun.

An Exciting Runaway Aociaent.

This morning between and 8 o'clock,
ID. l.. Deem, street commissioner, hitched
his horse, attached to a light market
wagon, in front Of the Fulton National
bank. Fordney's ice wagon came along,
and tho man in charge OF it threw two
pieces of ice on the pavement, in front of
Deems horse. The horse took fright,
broke the hi.ohing strap and ran off. The
harness tore, and the horse, partly out of
the shafts, ran around Centre Square, mar
rowly escaping collision with several other
teams in the square. Ia trout of Clay
Miller's liquor store he ran upon the pave
ment and broke down u hitChing post in
front of Barr's book store. The wagon
next struck the electric light pole in front
of Locher's bank, and was wrecked, the
shafts, body and top being broken. Be-
coming detached from the wagon the horse
ran into the central market place. W here he
was captured. He was not hurt, but the

man, of near White Horse, Lancaster
county, went into the woods near the
Chester county line and was in the act OF
cutting some poles upon which to hang
his crop OF tobacco, when he saw the
notorious bandit, Abe Buzzard. He oou-
cealed himself until Buzzard came up and
then sprang upon him. A terrible struggle
ensued between the officer aud the outlaw,
in which the latter was shot through the
hand and wrist. He managed to make
his escape, however. 1t was at first re-
ported that both Buzzard and Bowman
were killed In the encounter, but q gentle-

President Seeyle says of compulsory
exercise in the gymnasium I" BY close
statistics, carefully kept for twenty years,
it appears that the health of an Amherst
college student is likely to grow better in
each year of his college course. The aver.
age health of the sophomore class is better
than that of the freshmen, and of the
junior better than that Of the sophomore,
and of the senior best of all. This average
is shown to come from an improvement in
tho physical condition of the individual
student, and not from dropping out OF
the course of those who might be too veal

tempt suicide, did not leave him until he
saw him safe at the hotel, where he was
recognized by Mr.. III. w. Sauer, manager

HOW montgomery county uot Its Name.

From the Pottstown Ledger.
On Saturday, March 13, 1884, the Assem-
bly, ordered that committee be appointed
10 bring in bill for the erection of q new
county out of parts of Philadelphia, and
Messrs. Steinmetz. OF Philadelphia county,
Rush, of Philadelphia oity, aud Potts,
(Col. ThOmas) OF Chester county, were
named as said committee. They drew up
the bill, leaving the name blank, but it
was subsequently filled up with the word
Montgomery" This bill passed finally
| in the general Assembly, Chen consisting
! of ono House,) on the 10th of September,
1884. The vote on it's passage was-yeas
| SO nays l6. Why it was called Montgomery
is uncertaiu--most likely after Mont
| gomeryahire, in Wales. where n great
many of tho settlers in the lower part OF
the county emgraied from or it may
have been named after General Richard
| Montgomery, distinguished soldier of the
| revolution. Ia the printed records of the
Assembly of 1884 the bill, whenever il
came up for consideration, except on final
| passage, appears with the name of the
county blank, and it is just barely possible
| that it obtained it's title from Joseph Mont
gomery, of Lancaster county, and William
Montgomery, OF Northumberland county
who were very prominent members of the
general Assembly of 1884, and may have
had the blank in tho bill filed with thei
| own name,
