On Monday last while Hr.
Joseph was butchering at William
Roberts in Center township, he took
a little exercise at wrestling which
resulted in his having two of his
ribs fractured. He has a pretty
sore time of it but he hopes soon to
be able to try it again. Mr..
John Fennicle accompanied by his
wife and little child, had a narrow
escape from drowning, on Monday
evening. They were on their way
home from town where they had
been to market and occupied one
seat in a carriage drawn by one
horse. The road runs close to Shsr
mans creek, which is now six feet
above low water mark The horse
became unmanagable and backed the
carriage into the stream. The
strong current carried them down
until snag along the bank caught
an the clothing of Mrs Fennicle,
and she with the child in ker arms
was saved. Mr. Fenuicle succeeded
in getting to shore also, but the
horse was drowned and with the
carriage was carried away by the
mad turbulent water.

Mr.. Elihu Benner of Thompson.
town, died on the 22nd inst, aged
about 76 years. He had that day en-.
loved reasonably fair health, and at
tended to his business affairs salts
factorily. 1t was 4 o'clock in the af.
ternoon, when he and his wife were
in their room that he suddenly sank
to the floor, and before Mrs. Benner
could call in friends his spirit had
left its earthly tenement and passed
into the great unknown future. MIR.
Benner was a native Of Chester coun.
tv, and came to Juniata about thirty
five years ago. He was a valuable
accession, for, as q citizen his IN
auence was always in the direc-
ton of right. He was dignifisd
courteous and kind and he poss.
essed business qualifications of q
high ordor which enabled him to
succeed in the pursuits in which he
engaged. The community at large
recognize his worth, and feel that
one of the best has been taken from
among them, and his immediate
friends and relatives keenly realize
the loss they have sustained In his
demise.

IRON HALL.
Those Who CIamor for a Receiver Consid-
erably Puzzled.

erably Puzzled.
indianapolis, IND, August O.
There are indications that the plaintiffs
10 the suit for receiver for the Iron
Hall are repenting their action, and 1t
Is not at all improoably that the case
will ever come to trial. They have
made a proposition to the Executive
Board, which was promptly rejected,
but the Board has made one TO them
that may be accepted, and in this event
the suit will be withdrawn. The
proposition made by the plaintiffs
was in writing, and in effect that
the plaintiffs select a committe COM
posed OF at least two OF the plaintiffs,
with the addition Of j. S. Sayres, Of
Philadelphia, and Jacob w. Smith, of
Indianapolis, to make a thorough in
vestigation of the books and papers Of
the order. During the time Of the in
vestigation the committee to haue the
entire control and management OF the
order. The plaintiffs attorneys to act
as counsel for the committee, and
at the conclusion Of ihe iRvesti-
Cation all expenses, including the
payment OF the attorney fees, were
to be borne by the order. II every
thing was found all right the suit was
to be withdrawn. The proposition was
returned, with the anawer that the
Board would not consider it. An hour
later the Board sent proposition TO
the plaintiffs stating that it was making
an examination OF the books and papers
of the order, and had appointed sub
committee, consisting OF Mesfrs. Hos
mer and Becker, to go over the books
for a period covering the last four
years. This proposition is now pend
ing, but it is believed that the plain
tiffs will accept it. The earnest pro-
testations Of Somerby and the members
OF the board that everything is all right
and teat the fact will be demonstrated
in the Court, have frightened the plain
tiffs who are deeply impressed by the
evidence Of confidence that Somerby
has receihed from members OF the or
der. They are looking for soft place
to fall, and the boards proposition will
no doubt be accepted.

George Hass and some companions were
there and as one Of the woman, whose

matter. She told him that Dowd had
hit her in the face. Dowd and
the women then entered the parlor and

ions said they would hx Dowd, so they
pushed open the door. Dowd drew re-
volver and Haas and his companions

HORRIBLE SUICIDE.
A Con vict Lies Down on Bis Burning Mat
tress and Cuts hts Throat.

PHILADELPHIA, August For the
third time In the past four months a
tragedy has occurred at the Eastern
Penitentiary. Overwhelmed with the
thought Of the cherries future before
him, James RodAn committed suicide In
the most traffic manner. He set Ere TO
his mattress and bedding and sitting
down deliberately, in the midst OF
the flames drew a keen edged knife
across his throat. The cries OF the des-
perate man attracted the attention OF
his keeper. but before the latter could
reach him he had sustained such severe
injuries that he died in the prison hos
pitaI few hours later.
ROdan was native OF Ireland, haV-
Ing been born in Londonderry 81 years
aso and the greater portion OF his life
had been divided between following the
sea and tramping through the country.
He was arrested IN Chester county for
house breaking, larceny and carrying
concealed weapons, and three true bills
were found against him. He arrived at
the Eastern penitentirry on Nov. 2, 1891,
70 serve his sentence OF two years and
nine months which would have expired
on May 26. 1894. At the Coroners's In
quest to-day the prison physician tes-
tiied that In several conversations he
had had with the dead convict the lat
ter had declared the world had no
charms for him; bis future would be a
blank, he said, as no one would reorg-
nize a criminal and 1t would be better
for him to beat his brains out.

Interesting Decision.

The CIty of New York and the City OF
Paris Must Employ New onioers-An
Interesting Decision.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. An In
terestIng question has been presented
to the Treasury department in regard
to the steamships City Of New York and
City OF Paris, the owners OF which are
preparing 10 have them documented as
American vessels 10 accordance with
the provisions OF a special act OF Con-
gress granting them that privilege un-
der certain conditions. The steamship
company is anxious TO retain the pres
ent complement of officers OF
those vessels, most OF whom
however, are OF foreign
nationality and in order to bring them
within the law requiring vessels OF the
United States to ofhcered exclusively
by citizens OF the United States, the
company took steps to sec cure their
speedy naturalization. This, however,
is a very slow process. The officers in
questions have already taken out their
first papers, but have to serve out the
full probationary period before they be-
come full iedged citizens. Leaving out
the question sof their financial
ability to remain idle during
that period, the company itself is un-
willing to sacrifice them for the
untried men OF American citi.
zenship. Accordingly IS test
case, application was made to the
Treasury Department for the detention
of Captain Watkins, 81 master OF the
City Of Paris, during his prooatlonal
period OF naturalization. The Commis-
sioner OF Navigation, to whom the mat
ter was referred, has replied that the
law is obligatory 70 the citizenship OF
masters OF United States vessels, and
that such citizenship in the case OF an
allen is not established until he shall
have fulfilled all the requirements OF
the naturalization laws. Unless this
decision is reversed, the steamship
company will have to secure a new sci
OF officers for the two steamships or else
delay the documenting OF the vessel:
under United States laws until the
present officers can legally serve.

HUNTING~oN August 6.-The great
Republican convention at Huntington
is a thing OF the past and as such IT de-
serves some consideration. Its chief in
tereSt centered in Mr.. Stephen b. Ell
kinS, the ruling spirit, who to ali intents
and purposes, was the monarch OF all
be surveyed. He was the imperious
emperor whose every motion and whim
were as carefully noted and attended to
as il he had been Sultan Of Moroc-
co. Such a sight was never witnessed
before In a West Virginia convention or
for that matter in a convention in any
other State. IL was a ptious sight TO
see such a fine body of intelligent men
so dependent upon one man for inspir-
alton, for instruction and direction, in
fact for everything that was to be done.
One can truly say that without Mr.. FL
kins' presence az that convention it
would have been as the play with Ham
let omitted.
A good deal OF comment has been oc-
casiOned among gentlemen who were
present az the convention and heard
Mr.. Elkin's speech on accepting the
Chairmanship, that none Of the Demo-
cratic newspapers in their references TO
his remarks called attention to the
break he made when referring To the
mining law passed by the last Legisla-
ture. The InteUt1sHcer evidently heard
what he said, but took good care
that the public would not know the
purDort of his words The language
that the IntelligeHcCr puts in his mouth
Is as follows: "If the Democrats can
formulate their principles into law and
carry them out, theY would be at war
with the best interests Of the State
and everything that makes the State
prosperous, and gives capital confidence
aud encourages the opening OF mines.
That sounds very we'll from Repuoli-
eau stand point, and is quite a TRADE
against the Democrats. But when
the exact words Of Mr.. Elkins are read
it will put a different phase upon them.
Here is what he said in this connection:
"Everything have is invested ln mines
I'm West Virginia, and l am interested
in seeing that the Republicans secure
the LEGISLATURE Of this State il for no
other purpose than 10 prevent such leg
islatiou os the infamous mining law
passed at the last Legislature. The
REGISTER which is ususlly very alert,
overlooked entirely this important part
OF his speech, a part that will not only
intensely interest all miners, but help
to explain to the Democratic party why
he is so deeply interested in the success
Of the Republican party.

ASSAULTED BY Ex-CoNvICTs.
An EIeven-Year-Oid Girl the Victim OF
Their Brutality.

MOUNT HOLLY, y. j., August q
Lillian Mitchell, a pretty eleven-year-
old girl, was found lying In strip OF
woods near her home, at Vincenttown.
She had been assaulted by gang OF
roughs, aud left by the roadside in an
insensibe condition.
Little Lillian had been missing for
several hours, and her parents and q
number of their friends were searching
for her. After being taken home she
regained consciousness and said that
while walking along the road she was
picked up boldly by some men and car
ried into the woods.
On attempting to make 40 outcry one
OF them took her by the throat, aud
holding his hand over her mouth,
threatened to choke her. The child
soon lost her senses from fright and
brutal treatment, and remained In that
condition after her assailant, had fled
until found by her parents some hours
later.
On the strength Of the description
given by the child OF her assailants,
Phillip Bullock. Horley Schemeley, Bo-
zallai Beram, Joseph Alloways and
Pemberton Foster were arrested. They
were brought TO this place and lodged
in Jail. Had they been kept any longer
at Vincenttown IL is more than proba-
BILE they would have been lynched.
Their little victim, when the prison
ers we're brought before her, promptly
identified them as her assailants aud
said that Bullock was the first TO ap-
proach her. Bullock is an ex-convict,
having served twelve years at Trenton
for manslaughter. Schemely is also an
ex-convict. In fact, all the members OF
the gang are hardened criminals and
have been terror TO the community.
At the preliminary examination to-
day bail was refused and the prisoners
were all held for the action OF the grand
jury, which meets next month. The
attending physician says the child Is
dangerously injured, and ne fears she
w IN not recover.

NO ROOM HERE
For pynamiters, Anarchists or Nihillsts.
A Patriotic Utterance From "Ihe Free
Sons OF Israel"

For Dynamiters, Anarchists or Sihilists.
A Patriotic Utterance From "The Free
Sons OF Israel"
New YORK, August Julius Har-
burger, Grand Master OF the lndepend-
ent Order Free Sons of Israel, address
ing a meeting of the order here to-day,
said among other things:
sin 1880, when the religious crusades
in Roumania and Imperial Russia took
place against the Hebrews, emigration
by thousands set In towards American
shores. With the yearly increase, num-
bers of Anarchists and Nihilists, made
so through q brutal Government, came
over with these unfortunates and
preached their damnable and pernicious
doctrines.
"They had forgotten the essence of
the teachings of their fathers, that
Judaism is religion Of law and order.
1.-The dastardly and cowardly attempt
OF a Russian Nihilist, dynamiter and
Anarchist, upon the life Of the manager
of the Carnegie works at Homestead,
has shown the effect of the pernicious
doctrines that have been inculcated in
the minds Of many Of these aliens, who
land on our shores without the first
conception OF the duties Of an Ameri-
can citizen, and the liberty afforded to
every individual under our form OF
government.
"I am in favor Of rigidly enforcing
the return Of all aliens who are known
as Nihillsts, dynamiters and Anarch-
lists. Our flag is broad enough to en-
brace men of all creeds, colors and ma
tionalties, but when they come here
with torch and sword, we have no room
for them. As we guard our ports against
cholera and disease, so we should ward
off the approach Of moral contaglon or
political disease"

WATER AND RAIL.
A Great Fight Between the Railroads
and the Lake ship Owners.


DETROIT, Mich, August 7.-Prepa-
ration is being made, and the expert
ment will be tested during this fall and
winter to deal shipping interests OF the
great lakes one Of the severest blows
that that industry has yet received from
the railroads. Apart from the package
freight carried by the Swift steamships
there is hardly anything Tor
vessels to take from Lake Erie to Lake
Michigan excepting coal. IL is on this
traffic that the railroads are now cast
ing their eyes, and an attempt to gather
It in is now being prepared. AT the
ward of the Craig ship building company
in Toledo, there are under construction
two huge and peculiarly shaped hulls.
They are 26O feet long, 52.feet beam
and 10 feet deep. and will cost when
completed about S1sO,OOO each. They
are for the Toledo Ann Arbor and
North Michigan Railroad, and will
both be completed this fall, and 1t IS
by the aid Of these that the managers
of that road expect to gather in a large
share OF the coal and also the ore trafnc
which is now moved by water.
The projectors of the scheme figure
that cars can be taken across the lakes
at cost of 81 each, against present
cost of 81, when bulk is broken. This
refers to the handling Of general mer-
Chandise.
