time the complaint is not against the manage

witness to show that although like 1row-

not criminals. Their names are George Smith

ter to The DISPATCH from the county jail
detailing their grievances, which seem to be
that they are accused of robbing a man at
Mansfield, Pa, last Monday night, and want to
prove an alibi. They ask for the brakeman
who rode with them on q stone car on last
Saturday evening. The intentions of the
writers are evidently right but the orthog-
raphy is rather faulty, although the outlines
show a newspaper instinct by writing on
one side of the paper, and printing the matter
with an apoloEetic note excusing the chirog-
raphy POSSIBLE, which note explains the neces-
sity of printing the communication. The brake
man in question owes it to the two sufferers

illustrated. which made it much more interest
ing and enjoyable. 1t was evident from the
applause that greeted the points and the grace
full diction Of the lecturer that the people fully
appreciated the doctors efforts.
The talk embraced fve different points The
first part WAS devoted to the construction Of the
eye. Here the doctor elaborated on the won
derful mechanism Of the organ. He pointed
out its power and beauty. He then skillfully
dwelt on its delicacy, and showed what atten-
tion had been given TO its protection. The doc
tor then went into an examination Of the dis
eases Of the eye, color blindness, when TO put on
glasses and how to preserve the sight Each
point was ably handled.
The object the doctor had in view was, to
prove that from one organ Of our bodies we
could see the power of a divine hand; and rec

thanks for this gift, but. appreciating Gods
work, we ought to take proper care of It.
