PANS, TEX, Nov, 25.-News has been
received here Of the suicide last night in
the Nation of a young man by the name OF
John II. Scott. He had been employed
by "a fl m of tie contractors on the Frisco
road TO keep books for them, and being
inexperienced he got his accounts tangled
and could not account for some small
amount of money. His employers did not
doubt his honesty, but knowing he was
incompetent employed another to keep
the books, and gave him other work. This
so preyed upon his mind that he shot
himself. He had been in the state about
eight months, and came from Chickasaw,
Miss, where his mother resides.

Cutting Coal Mine Props.

The other day, at noon, three bedless wa
gons, without loads, to which were hitched
ten mules and two horses, stood along Main
street, between Bridge and Cherry streets,
quite while and attracted a good deal of
attention. Everybody belonging to Main
street saw the teams and wondered who they
belonged too, and wondered what hsd Re-
came of the teamsters. After while J. &.
McCahen came along, and when 1t was found
out that he had been instrumental in bring
ing the teams to town everybody wanted to
know what he proposed to haul. The curl
osity was soon set at rest by McCahen tell
ing the folks that he had not brought them
TO town, but that he had them arrested for
doing too much hauling from his Shade
mountain tract of l760 acres that he bought
from Leffort Haughawout years ago. he
said that during the past four years he has
been looking for men that have been cutting
and stealing timber from his land and haul
ing it TO the Sunbury and Selinsgrove rail-
road and by that rout it was shipped into
the coal region to be used as coal mine props
and that at last he had gotten hold of teams,
teamsters and cutters, and had them
brought to town by the Sheriff, to enter
suit against them, for "cutting and carrying
away lumber. Aaron Shilling, J. w. Ro-
mig were the name, OF the cutters, and g. N
Stimeling, d. Reminger and Il. ]. Roaring
were the names OF the teamsters that MEGA
hen arraigned before Justice McCrum. The
men before the bar OF justice said they were
in the employ of Singerly and Moody, coal
mine prop operators. Singerly and Moody
were not present, but sent their teams from
Wagner's station to the Juniats side Of the
mountain for lumber. Squire McCrum dis
missed the teamsters, but held the cutters
in the sum of $3.50 each to answer the
charge as quoted above. George Hover Gu
tered three hundred dollars for the two cut
hers, and there ended the case till court
when there will be more of it.

Abraham Lincoln.

Among recent facts OF literary and popu-
lar interest, is the announcement of a new
illustrated biography entitled 1.-The Every
Day Life OF Abraham Lincoln" written be
ssThose who knew bin" The plan OK Us
work is that of an exhaustive biography,
giving not only the general facts of his life
in chronological order, but incidents, anec
dotes and srsry day facts miRuteiy personal,
such as could only be given by those in
closest intimate and confidential relations
during the various periods OF his life. These
were In pursuance of the plan, enlisted for
the work, embracing those who knew him
as a boy, as fat-boatman, a rail-spliter,
clerk in country store, law student, a
lawyer, politician, President-every period
of his eyentful and most interesting life.
Each author writes of the facts of his life
during the period in which he knew him
facts and incidents that came under his own
observation and within his own knowledge.
A book thus written, and so exhaustive in
fact concerning one of so enduring place
in the hearts and admiration of his people
is assured of an enthusiastic welcome and a
fasting place in popular esteem. We are
told that the last literary work performed
by the late Judge David Davis, Lincoln's
lifetime friend, was one of the many contri-
buttons to this volume, in which he took a
deep personal interest.
1t is a grand career and character that is
thus so minutely delineated. What lover Of
SIMPLE worth and hOmely virtue is not touch
ed by the story OF Lincoln's pure and manly
life In what other country could 1t have
been possible to produce character antca-
reer like his
The work is rendered further attractive by
nearly 100 superb engravings from originst
designs made especially for this book, illus

Take Care.

Howard Crosby lately stated that Brook
lyn saloon-keeper, who openly gave wine to
the children who were playing on the street
near his saloon, frankly declared his expec-
tation TO make OF these his customers the
future, and ultimately to come into posses
ion OF good part of what they might inherit
from their parents. This certainly was
heartless proceeding and avowal, yet con-
slider how singularly inconsiderate, or worse
were the social drinking customs ofless than
a century ago, when children not infrequent-
ly became more or less intoxicated upon va
rIous merry-.naking occasions. The youth
of that strong opponent of slavery and rum
drinking, Arthur Tappar, furnishes case
in point:
"When a small boy" says his biographer,
''he and other lads in the neighborhOod went
to the raising of new dwelling house near
by. According to the custom of those days
the owner of the frame provided the towns
people who assembled on the occasion with
pals of rum and water.
At conclusion, the boys scraped up aud
swallowed the sugar and rum that remained
in the pals. Little Arthur was one of the
unfortunate ones, and on reaching home fell
PROSTATE on the floor of the she'd. His IA
ther, in quest of some wood for the next
mornings fire, saw what appeared to him in
the darkness of the evening to be a log, was
arrested by the groan or motion OF his son,
and thus spared the horror of striking the
axe into his head.''
Let us be thankful that the pail Of rum and
water at house and barn raisings is not now
the invariable rule.-Christian Statesman.

Ludwig, from one of the charitable institu-
tions OF Philadelphia. Mr.. Ludwig has no

his own child. A few weeks ago George
disappeared. Search was made for him in
every direction after some time he was
found working for a farmer near Liverpool.
The boy was ever on the alert, and several
times escaped to the woods when he learn
ed that Mr., Ludwig was about. Finally, by
resorting to stratsgem, he was captured by
his foster father aud brought home. Geo.

band on the 9Th of March the day on which
he went to Harrisburg. He was arraigned
before court on the 28th of April to answer
the charge of murder.
On the evening of the lst of May, in the
presence of densely crowded court room
the jury rendered a verdict of murder in
the first degree. Lawyers for McMeen i'm
mediately NOV ed for new trial, and were
granted twenty days to file reasons. At
the expiration of the twenty days they filed
eight reasons, and asked for more time to
file additional reasons. Time was granted
by the Court till May %, to file additional
reasons for asking for new trial. On the
Sth day of June lawyers for the condemned
man argued the twenty-one reasons for ask
ing for a new trial. No answer was made
to the argument further than the statement
that on the 9th day of July, the Court
would announce whether or not new trial
would be granted to the condemned man.
Yeste rday, June 81, 1886, Judge Barnett
in carefully prepared paper reviewed
the reasons upon which the plea for a
new trial was based. McMeen was
present. His appearance indicates good
health. He sat nervously handling his hat
during the time the judge was going
through with review of the case, and
when he was required to stand up for sem
tence he manifested no emotion. The Judge
commended him TO look to God fol- pardon
and mercy for the crime for which he had
been found guilty by jury of his fellow
citizens and sentenced him to be hung.

April Mr.. Mann was paying the same wages
that Others were paying in his line Of busi-
ness, and, believing that times were about
to improve raised the wages generally ten
per cent. Having discovered since that time
that he could not get the additional price he
expected for his goods, and that he was pay
ing more than others, and that prices would
not justify him in continuing the advance,
he notified his men on Saturday, June 26th,
that he would be obliged to return at once
to the old rates of ten per cent. less than
then paid. On learning this the men struck,
and have not worked since, except some
five or six.
