The shingle mill of Hyde IL Gray in
Watson township, Warren county, was
destroyed by fire last Thursday. Loss

The marriage of ex-SecretGry Bayard to

Recently Grant Kurtz, of near Mahon-
ing, was arrested OH information of special
officer Murray, of the a. V. II. r., for
violating the laws under the act of Assem-
bly, of 1879, for using obscene language
and singing vulgar songs in a passenger
car occupied by ladies. He was fined s.
and costs and 10 days in the Kittanning
Jail. Right.-Emlenton Neps.
A new counterfeit dollar is said to he in
circulation. 1t is made of brass, and has
thin coating of silver electro plate The
spurious coin is good imitation, and the
unwary are liable to be deceived. The
ring is like the genuine, only a little
sharper. The coin appears to have been
carried in many pockets, and the stars and
figure of liberty look worn, but the date,
1851, is sharply cut and fails to carry out
this impression. When placed beside a
genuine coin, the counterfeit looks blue.
For the first time known in the history
of the Courts of Lancaster county wit
ness acknowledged his disbelief in God or
the Bible. Charles H. Tucker was called
as witness in civil Court case. When
he was handed the Bible to qualify he said
he did not believe in it. He was ques-
toned as TO whether he believed in God,
and said he did not. The point was raised
that he could not testify. Defendants
counsel claimed that he could, as the act
of 1887, naming what persons should be
disqualified, did not mention disbelievers.
The Court ruled that as he did not believe
in God he was morally and technically
not responsible.
The Harrisburg Call says: "Governor
Beaver has signed the bill levying gen.
eral tax upon dogs in the commonwealth,
and the little dogs and all, Tray, Blanche
and Sweetheart will now have to be re-
turned by the assessor along with the
other property of their owners to he taxed.
The rate of tax fixed by law is so cents
anu oilc uOlIdI dcCOIulilS 10 tn9 sex OF the
dog, and the fund arising from the taxa
ton is to go in the first instance to pay
for all sheep which have been destroyed
by dogs in the district; and where no
casualties of the kind have occurred then
the tax is to go to the school fund. The
principal feature of the bill is that it pro-
vides some real congenial work for the
school boards of the various districts.
They are to hold as it were a sort of
post mortem examination over the dead
body of every sheep that is produced in
their bailiwick, and if it is found, after
mature deliberation that the sheep has
been the victim of some voracious dog,
they are to forthwith make an appropria-
tion in favor of the owner of the dead
sheep for the value of the same. OF
course, the school directors will be de-
lighted with these new functions, and, of
course, there isn't any room for fraud to
be perpetrated."

THE MANITOBA IS COMING.

It was stated in these columns Sun
day relative to tie Manitoba road and
the probability Of the first work that
would be undertaken in carrying out
President Hills policy, and that the line
would be extended west from Great Falls.
That such are the plans of the company
appears to be certain, as dispatch from
New York says that this company has
negotiated large loan and that it will
soon commence work on its through line,
pushing westward through Great Falls
to th' Rocky Mountains. The dispatch
adds: "This will connect with the
Spokane, Palouse & Western road, which
is really the Manitoba corporation, which
will give the Manitoba through line te
the Pacific coast. Work will b, com
meuced as soon as practicable, and thu
road will undoubtedly soon be in yer!
Aourishing and prosperous condition.
