An Anchorite In DURANGO Vile.

Hermits are generally supposed to
be holy men who spend their lives far
from the madding crowd, occupying
themselves in works of PRAYER and
meditation on the vanity of the world.

teenth century, who has been arrested
In France can hardly be classed among
the disciples of Saint Anthony
or of any other pious ten

dations having been brought to the
notice of the proper authorities the
gendarmes were sent out after Jean,
and he was captured at ST. Paul The
gives were promptly placed upon his
wrists, and he was marched between
two stern-faced men to the prison of
Prades, where he will remain ia real
seclusion from the world for cou-
sidera BILE period.

Effect of Sun and Moon on Steel.

A curious fact has recently been
noted by the fine steel workers at
Sheffield, England. 1t is this: Fine
edged steel tools assume blue color
and lose all temper if exposed for any
considerable length of time to the
light of the sun. either in summer or
winter A similar effect is exercised
by moonlight A large cross cut saw
with which the experimenters were
working was put out of shape and
its temper ruined by single night's
exposure to . hslf-quarter moon"

On the Wrong Peg.

a passenger from Portland to Boston
on Boston and Maine train few
days ago became considerably excited
for novel reason. The Boston and
Maine cars, as is well known, are
equipped with automatic danger sir
mails. At each end of every car there
is hook. and in case of an accident
by pulling down this hook the train is
brought to a most sudden standstill by
the brakes. The gentleman referred
to entered the smoking car just beyond
Haverhill, and, pulling off his over
coat, proceeded to hang it up on the
danger hook. Instantly there was
terrific bump, and the train came to
standstill in a manner that nearly
knocked the breath out of every pas
senger. Trainmen rushed out to find
what the trouble was, but everything
seemed to be in working order A
search finally led to the discovery of
the overcoat hanging on the hook,
and sigh of relief escaped the pas
sengers

Another Swindle.

Here is another trick for swindling
the farmer. A gang of glib and
plausible takers strike the vicinity
and amaze the residents by their
thorough knowledge of horse flesh.
The farmers become infatuated and
the swlndIers profess to be partners
in one of the biggest stock farms in
the West, and were making a spec
ialty of raising fine percheron horses
for the market. The farmers are
persuaded into forming stock CON-
panies to buy the alleged percherons
Twenty farmers of one vicinity paid
$4,000 for one horse that was not
worth 5000. In another case So 200
was paid for horse worth at its best
$500, and at another place ~ farmers
each paid 500 for stock in horse
worth less than $500. The swindlers
did not ask for cash, but took the
farmers notes for the amount which
were cashed at a heavy discount
appeal.
The parties who cash those notes
know they are frauds and are as bad
as the swindlers.

Spear, respectable young man of
the county. is in Jail awaiting the
result of injuries to John Murphy
Murphy was tramp. who went to
live with Spear some months ago.

occurred as follows: On Tuesday
morning young Watson Spear, a
brother of the man who is charged
with the shooting, ordered Murphy
to get in firewood This he objected
to, as it was showing very fast but
SAID be would when it stopped,
wbereupon Spear drew revolver
and ordered Murphy to leave, giving
him five minutes to get away. Murphy
left, but went to Millington and
swore out a warrant for Spears
arrest upon charge of drawing a
pistol on him. Yesterday evening
John Spear met Murphy in Angus.
tus Malsberger's store, at Massey's
when John Spear asked Murphy
about having gotten out writ for
his brothers arrest and knocked him
down. As Murphy fell be grabbed
weight from the counter, but was
instantly covered with a pistol by
Spear, who threatened to fire if he
raised his hand. The man moved
and in twinkling a ball was sent
crashing through his neck. Spear
went to Chestertown and consulted
his attorney, Harrison W. Vickers,
and was placed under arrest. DR.. L
j. Clark was called in and found the
wounded man in critical condition
Paralysis has set in and Murphy is
totally helpless except one arm.
Spear claims that he acted entirely
in self defence; that he was threaten.
ed by Murphy and that his life was
endangered when he fred 1t is
thought almost impossible for
Marphy TO recover. Spear is con-
nected with several of the most re
spected families in tue county. He
is single and was farming near

The above is case of "self de-

years ago. The party pleading self
defense is armed and the aggressor
in both instances, and the victims
unarmed.
