- On Tuesday of last week, Har
vey, a seven year old son of Mr.. ;Johr
Dunkleberger, Sr., living near Bridge
port, Spring township, was letting
out ef the stable some horned cattle
when two-year old bull gored hin
badly IN the side of the nose, neces-
stating surgical attention.
One night last week, while sever
al married ladies were enjoying
themselves riding down Seventh Hill
their sled came in contact with some
ashes that had been scattered along
the track. The ladies were riding
down head foremost, and when they
came in contact with the ashes, their
sled stopped suddenly, landing the
occupants several feet in advance.
They did not only receive a shaking
up, but had reason to hunt up the
Court plaster, and apply several in
ches of it to the bridge .of the nose
and a small piece to the chin. The
joke was perpetrated by the hus-
band of one of the eoasters.-Hunt-
ingdon Journal.
The quinine habit is astonishingly
on the increase. Tho New York
maiden who scorns cigaretts and
who knows not morphine, is becom-
a willing slave to the insignificant
looking little qninire pill which she
swallows at all times and under all
circumstances. She carries a dainty
vial with her and, upon the most
trivial excuse, out comes the stopper
and down goes the qujnine-two,
four, six, grains, as the case may be.
Colds, indigestion, headache, ennui,
all have their panacea in this dose.
The saddest part of it is that the
girls will not indulge quietly and
unostsntatiously. They swallow the
pills openly, they discuss the matter
openly aud they persuade their
friends to go and do likewise. Nat
urally their heads buzz like a saw
mill, but such trifes have no effect
upon them.
There is one thing which should be
brought to their attention, however,
and it is this: according to the best
quinine, taken in large
quantities, produce deafness.-New

A fatal shooting affair, occurred at
Saamokia dam, Snyder Co, on last
Thursday night, January Is, in
which Il young man named John Suy-
Ter was shot, by lumberman, nam
5d Adam Comfort.
The sf1ir happened at n church
festival. Comfort was slightly un-
Ter the influence of liquor, and when
10 became general nuisance, Sny-
Ter and two others put him out.
As the festival was about to close,
Comfort returned and. furnishing a |
'evoiver, made himself very obnox-
Gus. Again Snyder and his COM
AIDES put him out and when on the
street asked him to put up his revol-
Ier and go home. Comfort, instead
If needing Snyder's advice took aim
It him and fred one shot. An exam
nation was hastily made and it was
discovered that the ball had struck
Snyder in the abdomen on the left
side. The most remarkable thing
about the matter is that Snyder
walked home with his friends, and
was in good spirits treating the mat
ter as joke, and had walked around
at least two hours without suffering
any pain.
Shortly after reaching home he
began to suffer greet pain, and ply
siclan made an examination of the
wound and found that the bullet hao
lodged in the PIT of the stomach anG
that the injuries were fatal. Snyder
began to fail fast and shortly af er
sunrise became unconscious, in which
state he remained until he died.
Comfort, the murderer was arrested
and taken to the Jail at Middleburg,
to await the action of the ecourt.-Ex.
