correct these shell fish will be more

The Wiser of Which Gets Their Vehicles From John
Heller, Carriage Builder.
There are those who use vehicles of
any description, whoare always looking
something "cheap, as result they get
that which is not only cheap in price
but cheaper in quality, hence they
never get anything that is worth hav-
ing; besides they run the risk Of their
lives by using then. There are others
who prefer to buy good article, some
thing that has grace, style, durability and
safety combined and which is source
of satisfaction as long as they are in
possession of it.
1t is this latter class who go to John
Heller, the Carriage Builder, and if he
has not in stock what suits them give
him their orders for what they want
and they never regret it.

They Poison Valuable Dog, Then Enter and Rob a
House,
Some fend or fends incarnate, on
Tuesday night poisoned a valuable
black Gordon setter dog belonging to
Mr.. X. B. Combs, who resides at cor
ner of Pennsylvania avenue and Sec
ond street, and afterward entered the
house, by means Of window, ran
-sacking the house from top to bottom,
and securing considerable booty, in
the way of money and valuables. The
family were all away from home and
the thieves had good opportunity to
carry out their nefarious scheme. A
special effort should be made to hunt
down the marauders, as it is evident
that they belong right here in the
city as is evidenced by the fact that
numerous thefts have been committed
in different sections during the past
few months. Only few nights since
Mr.. George Kershner's poultry House
was entered and quite number of
chickens stolen.

A Hen That Numbers Her Eggs With the Figure
tTwo.n
One day last week Mr. w. n. Buck
les, of near Tablers Station, this coun-
rty. presented us with hen egg with
the number so" on the large end. His
little son Willie sometime ago discover
ed a nest in an of-the-way place,
containing one egg, and on the large
end bearing a straight mark, somewhat
raised and representing the figure 81 y
Since that time the little fellow has
gone to the nest daily, and returned
with an egg marked 80" The letters
are raised and very plain. We have
one of the eggs on exhibition, and
trust some Of our scientific patrons
will call and explain the freak. A
number of various ideas have been adj
vanced, but the one that it is Demo-
cratic hen inclined to number her eggs
according to the victories of the party,
seems to prevail.
