HUNTINGTON, Pa, August ia
diabolical attempt at murder was made
at Anderson, near here, last night. AS
Foreman Thomas Crepps was walking
on the railway track he was set upon
by two tramps, knocked down, and
gagged. After stealing his watch and
check for his months salary, which he
had just received, the miscreants tied
him to the track and left him to his
fate. BY frantic efforts he worked him.

train cut off one Of the fingers Of his
left hand, which he was unable to re-

tramps have been arrested and searched,
but they were discharged in the absence
Of any evidence against them.

OF the boDdhOlders committee denied the
rumor but his denial came late, ana had
no effect upon The price Of the stock. Stlll
conservative operators shake their heads

Train Found with His Throat Cat from

Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch. !
GORDONsvILLE, VA,
August ii, 1855.
At las o'clock this morning, as an
esstern-bound freight train neared the
telegraph Office at this place midway
between the St. John and Exchange
hotels, the engineer perceived the body
Of q man lying at full length across the
railroad track and within a few feet Of
the engine, which was reversed as
quickly as possible, but not in time to
prevent the engine and all the cars
attached thereto from running over and
horribly mangling the body Of the I'M
fortunate man. His remains were
picked up by the piece early this morn
ing, when he was closely examined and
found to have had his throat cut from
ear TO ear in addition to the mangling
of his body. His name is John A.
Harris. He has been employed here
as night-watchman by the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railway Company for seve-
raj years, but was recently dis
charged, and has since been idle.
He was about thirty-fve years old, and
weighed lsOpounds. An inquest was
held at $50 o'clock this afternoon, but
adjourned over until the arrival here of
Mr. S. NJ. Young, the engineer on the
fatal engine.
Martha J. Payne, colored woman
of low character, has been arrested on
suspicion. Lutte.

Half-Ilreed. Trick Exposed.

Washington Special: Special Agent Gard
ner telegraphed Secretary Lamar that, after
issuing number OF certificates to the Tur-
tie Mountain Chippewas in Dakota for lands
on which these Indians desire to settle and
own in severalty, he had returned to the
land office at Devils Lake and found that
the half-breeds had been filing entries as
citizens. He asked il he should return to
the reservation and cancel the severalty
certificates. Mr. Lamar at once advised
Mr.. Gardner that the half-breeds would
render their filings void if they ac-l
in the neighborhood OF one thou
sand half breeds in the tribe who have
played this shprp trick on the department.
They call themselves Indians, and draw
supplies as such. Under the law passed
last July, an Indian may file on a home
stead exactly as a white man except that
he pays no fees, congress having appropri-
ated money Tor that purpose, and that the
United States holds the lands thus entered
use and benefit OF the Indian by whom said
entry shall have been made, or in case Of
his decease, OF his widow and heirs. At
the expiration OF twenty-five years the
United States agrees to convey the land by
patent to the Indian or heirs, but the sharp
Turtle Mountain Indians prefer to file as
citizens and then sell their lands for a few
hundred dollars. After selling them in this
way and spending the money, they come in
Tor their supplies under the annual appro-
priations in the same manner as the simon
pure red man. 1t is safe to say that the
half-breeds who prefer to file their. entries
as citizens will be compelled to live as citi-
zens without any further aid from the gov
ernment. -. ~.

A Royal Cow,

Mrs. Samuel NJ. Shoemaker, says the
Baltimore Sun, has lost by death from in
hamation of the lungs the world-renowned
COW Princess Second, which astonished tho
world Sfell by giving in seven days a yield OF
forty-six pounds and ten and half ounces
OF butter. This test OF her butter qualities
was completed April 10, 1885. Some time
after the tests the blankets were taken off
rather suddenly, it is thought, and she took
o colo, 1 from which she never recovered.
She was q magnificent animal, OF great
vitality and force, as well as fine butter
producer. One ofthe secrets OF her immense
yields OF butter was, her great vitality
and appetite; During the very height OF
the test, when she was fed as large
quantities OF butter-producing food as
it was Thought she could safely bear, she
broke loose one night and consumed over
200 pounds OF prepared food in boxin the
stable. About two years ago Mrs. Shoe
maker refused $25, 900 for her. She wasES
years and six months old when she died.
She was an imported COW, and was bought
at auction in Now York for 81, 500. She
was at the celebrated Coomassie strain.
Her first calf was sold during an absence
from home OF Mrs. Shoemaker for SIC, 900,
but the sale did not stand, Mrs. Shoemaker
refusing to ratify it on her return. IN.
While the Burnside Park Jersey herd has
sustained great lossin the death OF Princess
Second, it is Thought her place will be more
than filled by noble cow OF grand ply
siquas of the same strain. This animal,
Oxford Kate, q near. relative OF Princess
Second has already record OF thirty.nine
pounds twelve ounces OF butter in seven
days, which is already second to Princess
Second, and rs she has never been pushed,
ord. The father Of this COW sold for SIS, $50.
All the Burnside herd are in fine condition.

him and saw the ex-governor with hishead
leaning upon the chair and breathing heavi-
ly. He hurried to him and the clerks called
"a physician, but death resulted soon after.
He was discovered in an unconscious con-
