Jno. Pack. the conductor. who was out on
the train. was thrown between two carr,
one Of them passing over his right leg
fracturing it so badly that anputation
was necessary. Mr.. Pack Is native OF
Harrisburg, Penna., and IS only twenty
ons wears old. A distressing feature OF
This unfortunate occurrence was that the
sufFererlng man had to wait about seven
hours before physician with the neces-
sarv instruments could be procured 10
amputate injured member, tho lower por-
ton of the leg hanging the while only oy
a few shreds of flesh. The railroad com-

The petty thieves that have been at
flictlng this town and surrounding ooun-
try seem to be growing either more numsr-
GUS or more active as the days, or rather
the nights, 60 by. During last week they
ralded the spring houses Of Messrs. Joel
Moreland, David Ashenfelter, Perry Sibert
and Others, carrying off butter, pies,
bread, milk and everything they could
find. II does seem strange that no one
has been able to catch or shoot one or
more Of these scoundrels. In the soft
clay floor Of Mr.. Ashenfelter's cellar the
tracks lett by the thief showed the i'm
print of a rather small foot clad IN fine
shoe or boot. This is about the fourth
time that Mr.. Ashenfelter's cellar has been
Yaided in the last few months.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Alexandria Gazette, in that papers issue
OF July 9th, is as truthful as ever when
il SAYS, "Mr. O'Ferrall, while sick in his
room here yesterday evening, received
telegram to the effect that he had been
unanimously renominated for Congress by
the Democrats Of his district" If this is
true, and surely no one can doubt the
veracity Of the above named correspon-
dent, then we regret to say that Col.
O'Ferrall is dead, and it was only his
ghost that arrived here on Wednesday,
train. and addressed the convention, re-
turning thanks for his denomination, on
Thursday. Everybody who saw his ap'
partition was completely deceived, and We
who sat within few feet of him on the
stage of Twins Opera House in this
place, on Thursday afternoon, and heard
his spirit address the convention would
have sworn that it was the Colonel in the
flesh and full of life. But we never dis
pute anything coming from the Wash

time to prove very disastrous. 1t origin
ated in a house on Orkney Avenue be-

BY hard fighting and well directed efforts
on the part Of the citizens the house was
saved as we'll as the property around H.

Who is Nellie Bly,

The following extract from an
interview with Mrs. Gen. Grant by
Nellie Bly,, printed in the ". Y.
World, October, 25th, will show
who Nellie Bly, is.
~ was somewhat nervous about
my visit to Mrs. Grant, / only knew
of her as the wife of the famous
general; the successful hostess for
eight years in the White House
the woman who had, in making a
tour of the world, has been recei-
we'd as a quenp in every civilized
land. Would any one wonder,
then, at my apprehension, when
women of so much meaner light
so often try to parry all attempts
to approach? But 1 was wrong.
"My son tells me-" Mrs, Grant
said, with a pleasant laugh, after
greetings had been exchanged and
she had drawn me by the hand to
a chair and had seated herself on a
lounge most cordially near, "that
Nellie Bly, is a little scamp
"Oh, no, no." broke in, but hold
ing up her finger playfully, she
continued:
That not being content with ex-
posing the Blackwell's Island In
sane Asylum-yes, and benefiting
it wonderOusly-and exposing
Phelps, the great Albany lobbyist,
she needs must go to Central Park
and allow herself to be IN lsh Il
and then tell all about it in the
THE WORLD, so that now none of
the men dare wink at girl while
out driving, lest she be Nellie Bly,"
"Why that's shame" l replied,
and we both laughed, fear not
altogether in pity of the men.

range for a canvass of Logan to
ascertain and provide for any des-
titution in the families Of the
scriptures, and to obtain funds for
the Bible Cause. The Committee
met on the following evening and
arranged for the accomplishment
of such canvass. Rev. j. F..
Williams was appointed mission
airy agent of the Society with in
structioDs to visit every family and

and obtaines will take the place
of any collections that should have
been taken in the churches, and

AS pastors of the churches we COM
mend Bro. Williams and the cause
he presents to the kind considera-
ton, and benevolence OF the people,

Washington Letter.
From our regular correspondent.
Washington Nov. 26th. 1888

Washington Nov. Goth. 1888
Dear Sir:
Mr.. Cleveland and all the mem
bers of his Cabinet have gone into
temporary seclusion in order to
prepare their usual reports for Con-
gress. Their reports will differ
from those usually made inasmuch
as they will give a general resume
of the Democratic administration
of the affairs of each of the Govern
mental Departments for four years.
Copies Of these reports and of the
Presidents coming message ba-
sed thereon should be carefully
read by every Democrat in the
country.
The Presid ent has taken a hand
in the dispute between Senator
Blackburn and Judge Rucker, and
is positive that he never used any
such language as Rucker ascribes
to him. The weight of common
sense is all on Mr.. Cleyeland's side
in this matter. Does any one sup
pose for one moment, even allow
ing that Mr.. Cleveland had doubts
about the sincerity of Governor
Hill's and Tammany Halls sup
port, which he never at any time
had, nor has he now, that he would
have given expression of those
doubts to a perfect stranger, as
Judge Rucker was, five days pre-
vi0us to the election. Not at all.
This disposes Of the question at iss-
ue between Senator Blackburn
and Judge Rucker, and proves the
latter to have been In the wrong
but II does tpat wipe out the hard

That Blue. Ruin HumbRS.

Those credulous souls who think
the business affairs of the country
go one way or the other according
to the swing of the political pendu-
lum, and who voted for Harrison
in order to keep the blue-ruin from
overwhelming everybody, find no
comfort in the reports of the stock
market. Business has not rallied.
Prices have not advanced. Trade
keeps on moderately active, as it
was moderately active before the
election. Gold is going out of the
country instead of breadstuffs.
There has been no virtue in Re-
publican success and no advantage
in Democratic defeat to stir men
to Investment or speculation. On
the contrary, the situation is one of
hesitancy. There is disposition
to go little slower because of the
uncertainty as to the future.
But when four years shall roll
around again the cry OF "ruinw
"ruin!" will again resound through
the land, and again the distracted
voter will be defrauded of his right
Judgment by political warehouses
and whoopers-up, who know as
much and care as much about the
industrial commercial and tinan-
cial needs of the country rs an oys-
ter knows and cares about demo-
cracy.

Education Amonr tho Chinese.

AS people the Chinese males arc better
educated than any other race Of people in
the world Education to certain extent
is compulsory for all Chinese males,
although the mass cannot 20 much more
than read and write; still to that extent
they are all educated. IL has been the
policy Of the Chinese government for
hundreds of years to select certain num-
Der Of boys from each district and educate
them for historians md writers. Their
work is never completed, for as long as
they live and arc able 20 do anything they
continue TO study and write. Every five
years they pass an examination, and, &c
cording to their proficiency, they are pro-
NOTED to Office or rank As rule no
Chinese can hope TO attain prominence in
any civil or military Office pertaining to
the COVER nneut unless he has succeeded
as Il scholar. for the Chinese believe no
man can succeed as q scholar unless he
has ability, and If he possesses ability,
why then, as n matter of course, lie is a
suitable person to hold Office; but no mat
ter how high the Office may be, be must
continue his studies, the duties Of his
Office being generally performed by a

Naming His Drink.

Why did / ask that gentleman what he

twenty years? Because it is our policy
always to ask the question. Suppose that
you did not know that gentleman, and hc
came in, and without saying q word
would put up whisky and lemon, what
would you thinlSs Why, you would say
to yourself, "That man is an old stager
here. There is no need of asking him
what he wants; they know him. So we
always make it point to go through the
form OF asking the customer to name his
