Sleeps in Two Counties at Once.

There is probably but one person
in the State of Pennsylvania, says the
Philadelphia Record, who can boast
that he sleeps with his head in one
county and feet in another Joseph
Wilson, of near Allentown, who is at
the present time studying at the
Philadelphia school OF Design, claims
that when he is at home he rests with
his head in Lehigh county and his
feet in Northampton. He says the
house he lives in stands on the divid-
ing line of the two counties and his
bed lies directly across the line
There is also a bed in the same
house which is bisected from head to
foot by the county line, SO that two
persons may lie side by side in it and
yet be in two different counties.

Remedy For Insect Bites,

During the hot days in the summer
months people living in the country
often suffer a martydom through the
stings of insects. They should at
once put on an application to draw
out the inflammation. Flour, for in
stance, is very good, and soon allays
the pain and reduces redness and
swelling. Another remedy is to
cover the skin with little soap and
water, letting the lather dry on the
skin. A small quantity of menthol
mixed with alcohol is excellent as a
lotion for the stings of wasps, gnats
and nettles. Many people use little
sticks of butter Of cocoa, very sooth-
ing cosmetic. The leaves of the
scented verbena plant are said to
keep off unpleasant insects, and wash
ing with vinegar and water or syringa-
flower water preserves the skin
against their onslaughts. Honey and
water, too, allays the irritation pro
duced by them. Use a teaspoonful
of honey in quart of boiling water,
applying it to the spot while the
liquid is tepid.

A Well Known Landlord Dead.

Daniel Morris, the well known
landlord, died at his home in Cata-
wissa township Wednesday morning
last week at 8 o'clock, after an illness of
little over two weeks, aged &c years.
His last illness started from the cut
ting of a corn, from which blood
poisoning set in and was soon compl-
Gated with other diseases. The
funeral took place on Friday at
10 o'clock, interment at Trinity M.
E. church, Rev. G.. S. Womer
officiating,
Deceased was born in Bloody Run,
Bedford county, coming to this sec
ton of the State when young man
as a stage driver between Sunbury

Gap. In 1857 he moved to Numidia,
and with but short intervals had lived
in the valley ever since. He has
been engaged in farming, dealing in
horses and mules, and keeping hotel
during his residence in this county,
and was probably as we'll known to
the public as any man on the south
side. He was twice married, and is
survived by thirteen children. He
was a genial, big-hearted man, and
his death will be deeply moumed by
a host of friends.-Hem.

Plenty of Snakes.

Snake stories are ripe now and we
clip the following from an exchange
showing how plentiful the rattlers are
in Centre county: On Dry Ridge
one day last week three men who
were huckleberying walked into a
den OF IS to 100 rattle snakes and
were completely surrounded by them,
all showing fight. The men were
armed with shot guns and at once
opened fire, with the result that 40
snakes were killed, while the others
scampered to hiding among the rocks.
Several deaths have occurred from the
bites Of these poisonous snakes, and
few people have courage to venture
on the mountains in search of berries.

COAL BREAKER BURNED

The big breaker at the Logau
Colliery, Centralia, was destroyed by
fire Saturday. The loss is 500, 900,
partly insured.
AT an early hour the watchman at
the colliery saw smoke and flames
issuing from the top of the breaker.
He Immediately gave the alarm and
in short time large crowd of peo
pie were at the scene. The men
employed at the mine made strenu-
GUS effort to save the building, but it
was mass Of ruins in an hours time.
A number of men were working about
the colliery most of the night, and it
is believed that they ignited the oiled
timbers by a spark from their lamp or
carelessness with matches.
The building was erected in 1886
by L A. Riley & Co., and furnished
employment for about 600 men and
boys. This list, however, has been
reduced to about 500 the past few
years owing to the worked.out condi-
tion of the mines, and few months
ago passed into the hands of the
Lehigh Valley Coal & Iron Company.
