It Is to be hoped that the morallsts,
whether preachers, politicians or editors,
who are stirred to hot indignation by the
sin of Mormondom and the shame Of poly

some social shortcomings that reach us
from Eastern Pennsylvania. 1t seemsthat
some pretended Mormon missionaries who
went through the country lately found lot
Of young girls quite ready to be induced to
quit the rural hearthstones and become the
sharer Of part of Utah patriarch's home,
estate and affections. and even their parents
have consented to the change. Now II
develops that the pretended missionaries
were procurers for vile purposes in New
York, and while some of the girls have re.
turned home in shame Others abide in SIM
1t is to be feared that without reading
the whole story the circumstance may pe
siezed upon by the anti-Mormon zealots to

MOST interesting adjudication WAS
made by Judge Gordon, of Philadelphia,
few days ago, which is destined to add not
little to that young jurists reputation.
Horace Binney, jr., a weIl-known lawyer
long since dead, many years ago held mort
gage on two properties in Philadelphia, Nos.
l, ll5 and LIZ Lombard street. The mort
gage on the first property was paid of, but
by clerical error satisfaction was entered
on the second mortgage In 1872 Morris
Brown, a colored shoemaker, bought the
property Liz for s4,500, having taken out
search for unsatisfed mortgages, which was
returned clear. 1t was not until nine years
later that the error was discovered, and de-
mand was made upon Mr.. Brown for arrear-
ages of interest on the mortgage of $3.50,
and the poor man being unable to secure aid
from any quarter, was sold out by the sheriff
and turned into the street. He then filed
bill against the estate of Mr.. Biuney, who
had meanwhile died, for s., ,265, with interest
from the time Of the sale, the bill being
based upon the Pennsylvania law that in case
OF a concealed crime the statute Of limita-
tions shall begin TO run from the date Of the
discovery of the fraud. The case was referred
to a master, who held that Mr.. Binney's act
was only mistake, and that therefore the
statute of limitations had expired. Passing
upon the exceptions filed to this report Judge
Gordon decides that Blnney's act while not
strictly fraudulent must be equitably re
garded as constructive fraud. On this n.y.
pothess the statute OF limitations only be-
gins to run from the time of the discovery of
the fraud, and thereby the poor colored mans
property is saved. The manner in which
Judge Gordon brushed aside legal cobwebs
to do an act OF great justice will increase his
repute with iair-minded men Of all shades of
politics.

AN enterprising Berks county citizen, Pr

AN enterprising Berks county citizen, proi
George IL. Thompson, has invented an
apparatus to save live stock in stables from
death by fire. Passing along the front OF the
manger is a tubular bar which holds the
partitions of the stalls in position. This bar
extends from one end of the stable to the
other. Below it is halfinch steel wire cable
sufficiently strong to draw twenty tons. This
cable is fastened by spring hooks to each end
of the barn. To this cable the horses or
cattle are hitched with a snap hook. In case
of fire, by the action OF key applied on the
outside of the barn TO the tubular bar the
stalls are unlocked and the animals unhitched,
ready to be drawn out, all fastened to the
cable. Any horse can be unhitched from
any part OF the line, the same not interfering
with the arrangements OF the remainder. In
this manner one or twenty horses can be
taken out in case of fire without entering the
barn or backing the animals single inch
The device is universal in its action and also
automatic, as the inventor has applied
measures by means Of electricity which in a
barn will assume certain temperature, the
unhitching rod will be turned and all the
animals taken from tho barn il no human
being is nearthem. 1t is great scheme, II
it Is feasible.
