comfort as an ordinary dress-waist. it
will give the same elegance of contour
as the heaviest boned corset in the
market, while the stays are so arranged
that they give support to the back and
spine, and in nowise interfere with the
freedom and comfort of the wearer.
Our price for this comfortable and

Accused of selling stolen BeddinC.

William Evans and j. q. Goodman were
arrested last night by Officers Jackson and
Stepler, while attempting TO dispose of a
lot of bed comforts and blanket at Third
street secondhand store. The two men,
about an hour before their arrest, called at
the place and sold the proprietor a line
comparatively new bed comforts, for which
they received $50. They came back to
the store in little while with more bed
clothes. which they offered TO sell, but they
were put under arrest by the officers and
taken to the police station With all of the
plumber. Evans is the night Waterman of
the new Harrisburg block at the corner of
Second and Cherry streets. He claims
that the property was bis own, and ne sold

PILES WHICH RISE AGAIN.
Another Natural Phenomenon on the
Fairhayen & Southern.

The engineers on the Fairhaven & South
ern railroad have struck another natural
phenomenon only second to the DEVILS
bread-pan. The gap Of five miles in the
track two miles beyond the boundary is
low, swampy place, which it was found
necessary to pile. A 40-foot pile was
driven right into the swamp and then
another was driven over it. But the second
pile would not stay down. AS soon as the
driver stopped pounding the pile began to
rise again. Pound as they would the
workmen could not make that pile stay
down, for at every blow it seemed to cry
'rcsurgam," and rose again as soon as the
pounding ceased.
The only explanation of the phenom-
enon is that the pile was driven down to a
subterranean spring which lifted it up
again. 1t will probably be found neces-
sary to pontoon or corduroy the place.
