stock herself It understood between the witness
and Miss Audubon. Mss Comstocks chief assistant
that Ler mind affected 1t was feared that She

VIM Chrisman Esq had a mishap Mon
day afternoon, which fortunately did not
result in any loss of life. He, in company
with his wife and little boy Neil, about
three and one-half years of age, drove a
pony belonging to his brother G. b. Chris
man, out to Jonathan Troubs. White
Mrs. Chrisman went into the house to see
her sister, the pony was left to drink at
the watering trough. When the pony was
done drinking it raised its head and start
ed on a run toward town. Mr.. Chrisman
seing the peril of his little boy who was
still in the wagon, grabbed the lines and
endeavored to stop the pony. The bit
broke and he could not control it. After a
few plunges, dragging Mr.. Chrisman along
upon the ground, it started on a full run
down the road with Neil, the little boy, as
the sole occupant. Mr.. Chrisman madly
rushed after the runaway, fearing the loss
of his son. The pony ran into town and
up East street, several attempts having
been made to stop it, but without avail,
near the head of East street it was stopped,
but in doing so the wagon made q sudden
turn and threw the little boy out, for
tunately he landed on the cushion OF the
seat and was not hurt. During the long
distance of the runaway the boy held tight
ly to the seat. When MIR. Chrisman arriv-
ed and found his little boy unhurt he pro-
cured another team and went back after
his wife who did not see the accident and
knew nothing of it until his return.

On Sunday morning boy named Cur
ley found a young and prepossessing wo-
man, entirely nude, on the river bank,
near the steamboatllanding at Plymouth,
says the Leader. Some distance down the
road, under lumber shed, her clothes
were discovered, carefully piled upon some
logs. After dressing herself the woman
told an interesting story, though she re-
fused to give her name.
Shs stated that she had come from Pitts
burg, where she resides with her husband.
She came by way of Eile and Emira, for
the purpose OF visiting her sister, who re-
sides lat Berwick. But the d. L. g. w.
train reaching Plymouth at 1880 Saturday
night went no farther and she found her
self alone in strange place. She met
some man and was invited to drink. What
happened afterward is blank to her. But
she is satisfied that she was drugged and
robbed. She claims that she had $40 when
she came to Plymouth, but only 81 was
found in her clothing. She proceeded to
Berwick Monday morning

The Berks County Fair

Will be held In the city Of Reading, Pa,
on September II, 1S, 10 and 90. The
Berks County Agricultural Society has at
great expense equipped new grounds on
North Eleventh street, every necessary ad-
junct for successful fair having been
provided, including a splendid race-course.
There will be many new and sttr active
features, and grand display In every de-
partment is assured. Berks county will be
seen at It's best on this occasion. The
fairs of the society have always ranked
among the most attractive and best attend
ed 10 the United States, and two years
preparation having been made for the ex-
hibition Of 1889, it will undoubtedly eclipse
every previous effort. The facilities for
reaching the grounds are first-class, pas

Wednesday, Sept. 4th was made COM
memorable by the marriage of Mr.. Il. E.
Ralston, OF Bloomsbury, and Miss Mag
gle Hippensteel, OF Light Street. Before
the sun had yet passed the horizon, the
friends and invited guests began to Assem-.
BILE at the home OF the brides parents, un-
TIL about fifty persons completed the num-
Der who had come to witness the happy
event. At seven o'clock p. m. the cere-
mony was performed by Rev. A, w. SVEN.
gle, OF Bloomsbury, Wess Hippensteel and
Miss Anna Hagenbuch being groomsman
and bridesmaid. After hearty congratu-
lation, all were invited out to table which
fairly trembed under its load Of delicacies,
to which all did ample justice. The pre-
sents were numerous and beautiful, and
all persons were pleased and had a good
time. May their pathway in this life lead
them to prosperity and happiness, may the
cruel hand OF sorrow aud desolation never
cross their threshold; but joy, love, peace
and tranquility reign supremely until they
have finished their course here and are
called home to enjoy the realms OF bliss In
that kingdom above, Is the wish of their
many friends.
