Mrs. Hannah Nerhood, widow of
Jacob Nerhood, decd, bought Amos
Benfers property, and will take
possession of it on the lst of April
next. Grip has taken possession
OF the health of quite a number of
our people and on some it has d
pretty firm hold. John L. Zech-
man is out again :. D.. On Friday the
primary school was closed, and the
teacher given over to the "tender
mercies' of grip. Jacob Dreese,
who belongs TO the EASTERN gang of
outlaws. shot n deer on last Tues
day. The new tariff bill does not
seem to effect the PosT's "roll of
honor, but that is about the only
thing it does not effect q. Last
Monday, Uncle Rob. and n chosen
few--among which was your humble
correspondent, left for the Kettle"
to close the deer season. We put
up at the Taylor house. which
was built more for comfort then for
beauty, and has all the modern i'm
provements. The sanitary condi-
tion of the house is unexcelled, and
can't be improved, except, probably,
by scrubbing the floor little. Re-
frigeration was not overlooked, as it
is one of the best cooling stations
ON the road, no danger of being over
heated. Squire Baker, who is good
authority on law, says, that this
house is built according to the laws
of nature. Well, we closed the sen
son, but didn't kill any deer. The
best we could do was to wound n
large bear. 1t was my good for
tune to have the shot, but at too
long n range, the distance was fully
25O yards. The bear lost consid-
cradle blood, but had no dogs with
mo that would follow, and so had to
give up the chase. We came home
on Thursday evening dragging part
OF our anatomy. CAL. JOE.

Badly Frightened.

Innumerable experiences prove that

PLANTATION, and that some natural
cause can be found for any seemingly
supernatural occurreLcn. Sometimes
it requires great GOODNESS and self-pos-
session to remember this, but the
effort to do so is worth making, for it
may save life or reason. A striking
illustration of this was the tragic eX-
pcrience OF a Dutch painter, named
Penteman, who lived in the eight
zenith century.
Penteman had a commission which
required the portrayal of skeletons,
death's-heads, and other objects in

frivolities and vanltles of the time.
In order to have models before him

death by the slow process of starva-
ton and exposure in cage.
This sentence was first carried out
on the ringleader and one morning,
early in September, he was placed In
the cage, standing upright on pile
of bricks a foot high, with his head
projecting above, and his neck tightly
fitted into hole in the roof
There he stood in crowded street,
the burning sun pouring its fierce
rays upon him, without food or drink,
and jeered at by the passers-by who
regarded the whole thing as a very
good joke His sufferings must have
been imaginable for the three days
that his wretched life lasted, On
the evening of the third day one OF
the attendants, possibly moved by
pity, possibly wearied by his long
watch, knocked the pile of bricks
from under the malefactor's feet,
leaving the body suspended by the
lower jaw and slow strangulation put
an end to what remnant Of life there
was in about twenty minutes. The
body, the following day, was removed
I'm the cage to an open space beyond
the city to be exposed as a warning
to evil doors before final burial.
