The Crow and the Headlight.

A peculiar accident happened one
morning recently to the engine on pas
senger train No, l at Macarthur juno
ton, o. AS the train was speeding
along through the darkness the engineer
and firemen were startled by crash in
front, and then the headlight went out.
They thought at first that a stone had
been thrown into it, but an investiga-
ton showed that big crow had flown
straight into tho light, shattering the
glass. The light threatened to explode
and finally burned out. The crow, which
had broken its neck, was fished out in
badly singed condition and was left
hanging up in the roundhouse. Chilli

HIDES BREED DISEASE.
The Secretary of Agriculture Will Inves-
tigate the Matter.


Secretary Wilson Of the department
of agriculture has had submitted to him
a communication from the secretary of
the treasury relating to recent out
break Of anthrax in Pennsylvania. This
outbreak was attributed to the pollution
of a stream into which flowed the
refuse of tannery in which infected
hides, imported from Asia, were tanned.
Several persons died after drinking
water from this stream, and anthrax
was given as the cause of death.
Of course the exclusion of infected
foreign hides is subject with which
the treasury department alone has to
deal, but the regulations for the disin-
lection of such hides before shipment
to the United States were formulated
in the first instance by the chief of the
bureau of animal industry and recon-
mended by the secretary of agriculture
and adopted by the treasury depart
ment. The carrying out of these regu-
lations is one Of the duties of consular
officers Of the United States in foreign
countries from which hides of neat cat
tie are exported to the United States

An Overzea1ous Official.

H. T. Smart, a driver of a delivery
wagon in Cincinnati, got into a most
singular ENHANCEMENT with the Humane
society one day recently over the pos
session of his horse and wagon. The
officer of the society was a little bit
hasty. Mr.. Smart left his horse stand
ing on Sixth street while he went to
dinner, and when he came back it was
gone.
He thought it had been stolen and re-
ported his loss to the police, who start
ed a search for the horse. 1t developed
that an officer of the Humane society
had happened along and taken posses
sion of the horse and wagon because
somebody told him it had been stand
ing there too long. An investigation
showed that the horse had been stand
ing Oh Sixth street but a short time

1t Stands Alone.

There is a township in Dauphin
county, Pa, in which there are 254 in
habitants according to the census, and
so voters. In that township there is no
minister, no church, no Sunday school,
no lawyer, no justice of the peace, no in
dustrial work of any kind and no place
where liquor is sold. There are three
grocery stores and one schoolhouse.
When the people want to attend church,
they have to cross the river to Perry
county and walk to Duncannon. The
township is Reed. There has been but
one case in the criminal court from that
township in the last % years. There is
not another township like it in the
whole United States. -McKeesport

In Bed Twenty-one Years.

Joseph M. Lilly, wealthy farmer
who lived near Chillicothe, Mo-, died
recently, aged "a years. In 1868 Mr..
Lilly told his friends that he had heart
disease and took to his bed and lay
prone there for 21 years, telling his
physicians and friends that if he raised
his head or chest above a slight angle
he would instantly expire Nothing
could expel this idea from his mind.
His general health was good, but it was
not until late in 1889 that he could be
induced to get up. He was shrewd
business man and grew rich even while
lying in bed. Up to the day of his death
Lilly had fairly good health. Chicago

KILLED BY A GOAT.
Family Pet With Mutinous Instincts MUIR
ders Its Old Master.

uefs IuS via NEASbeIs
Owen McGachem was killed by his
own billygoat, the pet of the family,
and the murderer is roaming the hills
surrounding Elizabeth, N. j., as if
nothing had happened.
For more years than most Elizabeth
people can remember the McGachems
have lived in an old stone shanty in
Bridge street, known locally as Nc
Gachem's Fort. The family consisted
of father, mother child and goat.
Owen McGachem, who was getting
on in years, had not been able to work
for long time by reason of varicose
veins. When he tottered to the door of
the cabin the other day, he and his wife
and child had not eaten food for days.
The goat being vagabond by nature
and of predatory instincts, was better
off.
What inspired the brute to maltreat
his benefactor will never. he known
Possibly its temper had been soured by
the necessity of roaming far from the
fort in search Of food However that
may have been, it lowered its head and
charged at the old mans legs, burying
one horn in the midst of the varicose
veins.
McGachem was taken as soon as pos
sible to the Elizabeth General hospital,
where he died toward evening from loss
of blood. The Rev Father Brady, when
he visited the shanty, found Mrs Nc
Gachem and her child in the last stages
of starvation. He fastened to relieve
their physical necessities before going
to the hospital to minister to the spirit
ual needs of the injured man, and Nc
Gachem's life slipped away in the in
terval. New York journal.

CHAPTER XVIII.
about him
GOING FOR THE DOCTOR.

One night, few days after James left
had eaten my hay and was lying down in
my straw fast asleep, when l was suddenly
reused by the stable bell ringing very
loud. l heard the door of Johns house
open, and feet running up to the Hall. He
was back again in no time; he unlocked
the stable door, and came in, calling out,
"Wake up, Beauty! You must go well
now, if ever you did" and almost before l
could think, he had got the saddle on my
back and the bride on my head. He just
ran round for his coat, and then took me
at quick trot up to the Hall door. The
Squire stood there, with lamp in his
hand.
Now, john" he said. "ride for your life
that is, for your mistress life; there is
not moment to lose. Give this note to
Doctor White; give your horse rest at
the inn, and be back as soon as you can"
John said, Eyes, sir" and was on my
back in a minute The gardener who
lived at the lodge had heard the bell ring
and was ready with the gate open, and
away we vent through the park, and
through the village, and down the hill till
we came to the tollgate. John called
very loud and thumped upon the door;
the man was soon out and flung open the
gate.
Now" said John, do you keep the gate
open for the doctor; here's the money"
and off he went again.
There was bef-re US long piece of level
road by the river side; John said to me,
Now, Beauty, do your BEST" and so did ;,
wanted no whip nor spur, and for two
miles galloped as fast as l could lay my
feet to the grour d don't believe my old

The History of Black Beauty.
Continued from last Sunday

Continued from last Sunday.)
"Then," said James, "you don't hold with
that saying, Everybody look after himself,
and take care of numbe one."
mo indeed" said John, where should l
and Nelly have been if master and mistress
and old Norman had only taken care of
number one? Why, she in the workhouse
and l hoeing turnips Where would
Black Beauty and Ginger have been if
you had only though of number one?
Why, roasted to death No, Jim, no! that
is selfish heathenish saying, whoever
uses it; and any man who thinks he has
nothing to do but take care OF number
one, why, it's pity but what he had been
drowned like a puppy or kitten, before he
got his eyes open,-that's what | think, /"
SAID John, with very decided jerk of his
head.
James laughed at this; but there was a
thickness in his voice when he said, "You
have been my best friend except my
mother; hope you won't forget me
"No, lad, no !" said ohm, land if ever l
can do you good turn hope you won't
forget me-"
The next day-Joe came to the stable to
learn all he could before James left. He
learned to sweep the stable, to bring in
the straw and hay; he began t, clean the
harness, and helped to wash the carriage.
AS he was quite too short to do anything
in the way of grooming Ginger and me,
James taught him upon Merrylegs, for he
was to have full charge of him, under
John. He was nice little bright fellow,
and always came whistling to his work.
Merrylegs was good deal put out at be-
ing ''mauled about" as he said, "by boy
who knew nothing" but towards the end
of the second week he tod me confiden-
TALLY that he thought the boy would turn
out we'll.
At last the day clme when James had
to leave us; cheerful as he always was, he
looked quite down-hearted that morning.
"You see, he said to Johr, 81 am leav-
ing great deal behind; my mother and
Betsy, and you, and good master and
mistress, and then the horses, and my old
Merrylegs. At the new place there will
not be a soul that shall know. If lit were
not that shall get higher place, and be
able to help my mother better, l don't
think | should have made up my mind to
1t; it is real pinch, John"
cay, James, lad, SO it is; but should
not think much of you, if you could leave
your home for the first time and not feel
it. Cheer up, you'll make friends. there {;
and if you get on well, as 1 am sure you
will, it will be fine thing for your mother,
and she will be proud enough that you
have got into such good place as that"
So John cheered him up, but every one
was sorry to lose James as for Merrylegs,
he pined after him for several days, and
went quite off his appetite. So John took
him out several mornings with a leading
rein when he exercised me, and, trotting
and galloping by my side, got up the little
fellows spirits again, and he was soon all
right.
Joe's father would often come in and
give little help, as he understood the
work and Joe took great deal of pains
to learn, and John was quite encouraged
about him.

GROMES CASE SET FOR TRIAL.

Killed His Squaw With an AK.


Killed His Squaw With an AK.
Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer.
TACOMA, Dec. 1s.-The trial of Charles
Gromes, a Swede, charged with the muir
der of Celia Hanson. a Puyallup Indian.
early In November, has been set for next
Monday. Counsel for Gromes recently
made an Intellectual effort for postpone
ment. claiming that Gromes is insane. and
that they wanted time in which to get
dispositions from his native land regarding
his family relations and heredity. The
court, however, ruled against a continu-
anee, and, barring new complications. the
trial of the Swede will be commenced at
the time set. One OF his attorneys Is to-
day reported iii with typhoid fever. and
this may possibly bring about a move to
have the hearing go over to the next jury
term.
AT the time OF the killing of the squaw
Gromes had been drinking heavily and
had caroused with her. She became afraid
or him on account of threats because OF
her accepting attentions from other men,
and tried to avoid him. The night of her
death she was lying in bed on a cot In her
shack, when Gromes came to the door
She refused TO let him inside whereupon
he secured an AK and smashed in the door,

c,,ssed. Those present were; Members
Frank Baker. A. p. Tugwell. Swtmm or

The only information the committee has
seen fit to make public Is that the project
ed state conference will not be held, on ac-
count of the expense 10 those who would
be expected TO attend. Regarding further
fusion nothing Is said. but II is not denied
that the members Of the committee have
undergone no change OF heart, and that
straight-out. old-fashioned Populism viii
be demanded irrespective OF all other po-
htical organizations.
So far as the stand against fusion may
affect the local situation. little Of a definite
nature Is vet to be learned. because work
ing organization has not yet been attempt
ed on any side. The fusionists, however.
continue 10 pooh-pooh the idea of a third
ticket and declare there is not a man in
the city with nerve enough 10 head such a
ticket. The dEscontents OF the combined
element content themselves with declaring
they will have no more OF fusion at any
cost, and hint that al the proper time some
thing will be heard to drop which will put
a serious knk in the fusion calculations.
So far as is known, no effort has been
made TO formally estimate strength and or
ganize on the part OF the local Popaiists.
but scarcely a daE passes that few of the
real stripe do not get together and talk
over the situation.
Local silver Republicans have formally
declared for fusion. AT a meeting held to-
