The Story of the TarrIng and Featherin
told In Court,

The Story of the Tarring and Feathering
told In Court.
The trial of the first indictment against
John Banghart in the Julia Beam tar and
feather case was in progress at Fleming
ton, yesterday. Owing 10 the absence OF
several important witnesses, it was not
called until two o'clock P. NJ, when two
constables arrived with the missing wit
uesses, for whom the court had issued
bench warrants.
Julia entered the court room with her
sister. She was questioned by ex-Judge
Richard s. Kuhl She testified that on
the day of the tarring and feathering she
had walked eight miles from her uncle
John Beams home at Mountaiuville, to
meet her husband by appointment. She
expected to meet him at Humphreys no.
tel sheds, but having waited so long she
walked down the railroad tracks. Meet
ing Albert Warmau and Edward Lesk,
they proceeded 10 the cornfleld. Her
husband, she said, knew she would be
there if not nj the hotel sheds. She and
her companion, with Warman and Lcsk,
sat down in or against a large stack of
cornstalks, when suddenly they were
aroused by crowd shouting, "Here she
isl Bring on your tar"
Judge Chamberlain here charged the
jury not to listen TO word said regarding
the case outside the courtroom and 10
shun all conversation relative thereto.
The trial WAS then adjourned until to-day.
10 both the preliminary and cross-ex-
aminations Julia told the same story with
out hesitation or trepii, Ii n.

Christmas In the Sunday schools.

The Baptist Sunday School gave their
Christmas entertainment last Wednesday
evening. The platform and south walls
were neatly decorated with cedar trees
and festoons. The exercises consisted OF
singing by the children accompanied by
organ and comets; an appropriate and
pleasing reading by Prof. Scoby, OF the
State Normal School; recitation by Miss
Blanche Finger; cofnet duet by Mcssrs.
Pickering and Van Solver; an excellent
address by Rev. VIM. Swan, OF the Pres
byterian Church, and the appearance of
Santa Claus, in his robes, etc, presenting
gifts to the children. Not the least part
of the proceedings was the bringing Of
gifts by the children and others for the
poor. Bags of tea, coffee, potatoes, ap-
Piles, flour, oatmeal, &C., &c, were
brought, making large collection. These
were distributed to the deserving poor by
a commilt1 the next day, and no doubt
helped some to have "Merry Christmas. !"
On Christmas night, the Methodist Sun
day School of this city, gave their usual
Christmas entertainment. This year the
school gave fine Christmas Cantata,
which was greatly enjoyed by the audi
ence. 1t was well rendered. and the in
strumenial music added much TO the en-
joyment. Santa Claus appeared and gave
gifts to the children, and all went home
happy.
st. Andrews (P. E) Sunday School
held their Christmas exercises on Monday
evening Of this week. The singing was
excellent, consisting of carols, &C., and
the address of the pastor timely and ex-
cellent. The children received some nice
presents from a large Christmas tree.

Potato Experiments.

The Royal Agricultural Society is
carrying out in six separate districts
OF the country experiments on plots,
each three acres in extent, with sui
phate of copper. One acre is TO be
treated early to prevent the disease if
possible; one acre later on, when the
disease has become apparent; and one
acre to be untreated. We are heartily
glad to see some steps at length taken
in the matter. For the sake. OF the
farmer we trust the Royal Agricultu-
raj Society may have the same expe-
rience as the Royal horticultural So.
Getty, a committee OF which for two or
three years undertook trials OF vari-
Gus kinds, and prepared elaborate
records, but the amount OF disease
which appeared was so small that the
experiments were relatively valueless.
An impromptu experiment, however,
in subsequent year, proved most in
structive. We perceive some of our
contemporaries are blaming the Royal
Horticultural Society for not taking
up the subject; but it must be remem-
bered that the Royal Agricultural So
clety can effect this matter much
more readily and extensively, having
a paid consulting botanist to direct
and overlook the experiments, and a
sum of $500 allowed towards the
expenses.-Gardeners' Chronicle.

Mrs. Sarah M. Black of Seneca,
Mo-, during the past two years has
been affected with Neuralgia of the
Head, Stomach and Womb, and
writes: my food did not seem to
strengthen me at all and my appe-
tite was very variable. My face
was yellow, my head dull, and I had
such pains in my left side. In the
morning when I got up I would
have flow of mucous in the mouth,
and bad, bitter taste. Sometimes
my breath became short, and I had
such queer, tunbling, palpitating
sensations around the heart. I ached
all day under the shoulder blades,
in the left side, and down the back
of my limbs. 1t seemed to be worse
in the wet, cold weather of Winter
and Spring; and whenever the spells
came on, my feet and hands would
turn cold, and I could get no sleep
at all. I tried everywhere, and got
no relief before using August Flower

II have been on the road for

tache who registered as from New

venture that amounted to much.
That was at Wheeling. It was one
Sunday afternoon and / was sitting
it my room writing, when the door
suddenly opened and a chambermaid
came in. She locked the door and
put the key in her pocket. Now she
said won't you buy some tickets for
a rattle. 1t is a gold watch that is to
be ratified off for my brother, who
was hurt while railroading.' l told her
wanted no rattle tickets. Then
she went on. I'll scream Gail right,

sDid she?" asked an interested aud
itor.
"Not much-I said to her if she
tried to blackmail me in that manner
I'd never let up until had seen her
punished. Her nerve gave out then
and she broke out crying, begging me
to not expose her.
"And did your" asked the same
man who had made the previous in
quiry.
"No."
III wish to heaven you had," he
CALCULATED.
"Why?'
"Because that same chambermaid
in Wheeling did me up for $40 on that

What Your Great Grand mother Did.

She hetcheled the fax and carded thu
wool, and wove the linen, and spun the tow,
and made the clothes for her husband and
ten children. She made butter and cheese

household by an open fire place and brich
oven. Yes; and when she was forty years Of
age, she was already an old lady whose bed
days were over. Her shoulders were bent and
her joints enlarged by hard work, and sha
wore spectacles and a cap.
