Among the Mountains of Pennsylvania
The curious phenomenon formerly
exciting the wonder of people living in
the vicinity of Thick Head and Sand
mountains, south of Tusseyville. Cen
ter county. Pa. which has no, been
noticed for five years. has made its pres
ence known again. For twelve years. 1t
irregular intervals, the jewellers in that
part Of Center county hal been dis
turbed by loud and mysterious noises
which came from the ground between
the two mountains named. In the
spring OF 1853 these noises were heard
daily, with increased volume. for q
week The noises, according to the
Chicago Herald, were sometimes like
the rumble of distant thunder and then
like e.. 'adencd crash of thunder
hcard in &c air close by. On the sew
entL day of this pro ,racted disturbance
beneath these two mountains q resi-
dent OF Tusseyville was climbing
Thick Head mountain, when the
rumb,ing began in the mountain OPP
posite. At firat it was deep and low,
came rs the tumult of q mass of rock
rolling down q mountain side. The
person who heard the sounds said that
they convinced him that they were
caused by subtcrrancan avalanche,
as it began at the very top of the
mountain. increaSiry in violence and
sFeed rs it went down, and terminal
Ing III terrible era / at the bottom.
Alter that day the Thicl, Head noises
ceased. and were not heard egain until
week ago, when they began just Is
they had terminated in . similar sub
terranean land OF rock slide, except
that this time the hidden avalanche Oc-

Thick Head mountain, instead of in
Sand mountain. In Potter County, Pa,
between Roulette and Burtv.l!e. is .
hill In which rumblirgs of the same
nature are heard at irregular inter
walls. This elevation is called Thunder
hill, and 1t rises from the south bank
of the Allegheny river. The noises
that occur in this hill sometimes mako
the earth trcmble for q long distance
around. and they have been heard for
. mile away. The theory Of local saw.
ants Is that a strong vein of natural gas
undcrlic5 the hill. and that when the
great rctort is di .urbed by some un-
derground convul.:o it rises In its
might AID tumblcs rocks and things
around in the confines of the hill until
everything huns. Still no one has con-
fidence enough in this theory to hand
out the money that is being asked for
TO send q drill down into che alleged
gas cauldron. let out its treasure and
make everybody in that bailiwick rich.

The prisoner was convicted and SEN

afterward taken to the effect that
neither his counsel nor the district a.
torney nor the court nor the prisoner
had . right to waive the latters right
to trial by twelve jurors. The con-
viction was set aside for that reason.
A. however, nothing In tho record

that the trial occurred and that tho
