Our farmers are as busy now as in harvest,
digging potatoes. Potatoes are rotting rapid
" and have to be taken from the ground.
Some late varieties are not fully ripe, but
they are rottiDg just the same.
Some farmers have not finished their fall
seeding yet, while others are cutting and
threshing buckwheat-a poor crop this year.
Corn cutting has been in full blast this week
1t is not as ripe as some farmers desire, but
appear to be afraid TO leave it standing. for
fear frost might ruin il still it is better and
nper than il was expected to be in the
month Of July. II should have been per
mitted 10 stand at least two weeks longer.
While our farmers are thus busy, and dare
not spend an hour in hunting or other rec
reation, the country is flooded with hunters
from the cities and towns, who are shooting
all species of game and tearing down farm
fences. Nearly every farmer you meet is
complaining that poultry has disap-
peared since the hunting season commenced.
During the past week several spring hous-
es have been robbed Of pies, butter and 9TH
er eatables; chicken coops have likewise
been plundered and at least one hundred
fowls have disappeared. This state OF az
fairs has made the farmers very indignant
and they have determined to hereafter in
yestigate all disturbances about their build
ings afler night armed with shot guns.
Mrs. Geo. y. Miller has been suffering
considerable the past ten days as the result
OF falling down pair of steps In her hus-
bands barn. She broke one arm and was
otherwise injured by the fall.
Mrs. John Stuff has been in Philadel-
phia for month or more undergoing treat
ment for cancer. She had been there for
twelve weeks last summer and returned
home, her physician having declared her
cured, but during the present summer the
cancer reappeared and had became worse
than ever when she left here for the city.
1t was rumored last Sunday that she was in
very critical condition. Mrs. Stuffi is an
excellent lady and has the sympathy of all
who know her.

MIR. McSpadden of Rockwood on His
Muscle.

From the Johnstown Democrat Wednesday.
Yesterday forenoon Mr.. Thomas Watkins
an employe of the Johnstown Water Com
many was treated TO an unexpected bath in
a large mud puddle on Main street. There
WAS a large break in the water main in
front of Adairs Opera House. Mr.. Watkins
had force Of men at work with large force
pump, pumping the water from the hole in
the street to enable his men to get down 10
the main and repair the break. He allowed
the water to fiow over into the excavated
portion Of the street where Contractor
McSpadden was preparing the road bed for
paving. The water overhowed large por-
ton Of the excavated roadway and prevent
ed McSpadden's men from proceeding with
their work. Mr. McSpadden appeared upon
the scene of operations and requested Wat
kins 10 discontinue the pumping of the
water until he could have small dana
thrown up TO keep the water from covering
the entire roadway. This was not complied
with as quickly as McSpadden thought it
ought to have been, consequently be lost his
temper and threw Watkins head over heels
into the water, much TO the amusement Of
the crowd Of workingmen land bystanders,
but very detrimental 10 the comfort Of Mr..
Watkins, who quickly picked himself up
and in defense threatened to knock McSpad-
den down with a stone if he attempted TO
repeat the bath.
Mr.. McSpadden was placed under arrest
by policeman and at hearing before the
Mayor was fined sia0o subsequently, Wat
kins made information against McSpsdden
charging him with assault and battery.

The precious remains OF this estimable chris

born and reared in Addison township, near

band lived happily together for years and
raised large family. Eight years ago her
husband preceded her to the spiritual world.

This was to her indeed home.
Increasing years brought also a train OF

of her earthly life was sosa to set, she longed
to have the death angel visit her in the old
home where clustered 50 many tender recol-
lections. She again visited the dear old
place, and had her longings gratifed.
Mother Heinbsugh was held in high
esteem by all who knew her; devoted wife
loving and afectionste wife and mother
and a kind and helpful neighbor. But
! what is still far better, she was a sincere
and earnest christian. She connected with

and dying in it. In proportion as her body

Scared by a steam Engine.

From the Bedford Inquirer.
While driving near New Enterprise Thurs
day evening of last week Elmer Corle and
Ben Brightbill. Of this place, had little ex-
perience with steam engine that they will
not soon forget. They were entering the
town when met by the engine OF Nicholas
Clouse. They drove slowly on, expecting the
engine TO stop or the man in front to take
charge Of their horse until they had passed,
neither of which was done. The horse
frightened and became unmanageable, turn
ing around in the road and throwing the
occupants of the buggy TO the ground.
Brightbill was injured in the back and COrle
had his ankle slightly sprained, but neither
Of the men were seriously hurt. The horse
ran down the road about mile, doing con.
siderable damage to the buggy, but was then
caught and brought back. Ifthe owners oi
such engines would stop when they see 1

In its November number the C6sIaopolitaH
will publish a series of letters written by
Gen. W T. Sherman to one Of his young
daughters, between the years 1859 and 1850
and covering most Of the important events
of the war Of secession. These letters pre-
sent graphic pictures of great soldier amid
some of the stirring scenes in which he was
a giant figure, and in them the patriotic
spirit of the Federal general is seen 70 have
been most attractively tempered by a strong
affection for the Southern people. The
fraternal feeling which glows in these letters
is in refreshing contrast to the sectional
bitterness which characterized the period
and they will constitute an interesting ard
important contribution to the literature Of
the war.
