Sub,cribe for a Paper.

Here is the latest story on the
man who is too stingy to take his
home paper, says the Kansas City
Journal. a man who was too
economical to take this paper sent
his little boy to borrow the copy
taken by his neighbor. In his
haste the boy ran over a 81 stand
rof bees, and in ten minutes looked
like a warty summer squash. His
cries reached his father, who ran
to his assistance, and failing to
notice a barbed-wire fence, ran in
to that, breaking it down, cutting
a handful offlesh from his anatomy
and running a 81 pair of pants.
The old cow took advantage OF the
gap in the fence and got into the
corn field and killed herself eating
green corn. Hearing the racket.
the wife ran upset a four gallon
churn full of rich cream into &
basket of kittens, drowning the
whole flock. In the hurry she
dropped a $500 set of false teeth
The baby, left alone, crawled
through the split milk into the
parlor, running brand-new $40
carpet. During the excitement the
Oldest daughter ran away with the
hired man; the dog broke up clever
setting hens and the calves got out
and chewed the tails off four fine
shirts.

IL ls not only in Juniata county
the forest fires have ragged during
the past week. The same destruc.
tive work of the flames has been
going on in many counties of the
state. The destruction of bark.
lumber, fences, saw-mills and in
s0me instances houses and barns.
The same hard work of fighting
the IRE that has been going on in
the woods of Juniata, has been 60.
ing on In other counties. In Union
county, Snyder, Lycoming, Centre.
Mlffiin, Perry, Dauphin, Berks
and many other counties tho fires
nave ravaged the forests like in
Juniata.
While Mifflintown people were
peacefully sleeping last Friday
night many citizens of Slim Valley
northwest of town about five
miles were along the foothills of
Shade mountain fighting fire to
save their homes and the fences on
their farms. The fire licked up
the house and barn on the Wolf
gang farm; also the fences. The
WOlfgang saw-mill was destroyed
by fire, but the mill was not on the
farm, but miles away on Shade
mountain near the Speiglemoyer
farm. The fences along the north
side of ex-COunty Commissioner
Ballentine's farm were destroyed,
and great deal of fence on other
properties. Great fires ragged on
the mountains west of Johnstown,
and threatened farm buildings
along the foot hills.
The Lutheran congregation have
begun to clear the ground for their
new church building and parsOn-
age. Architecturally it will be an
ornament to the town, standing as
it will at the head of Bridge street
and intersection of Third street.
The building is to be 12O feet by so
feet. The width of so feet Is on
Third street. Twenty-six feet of
which is to constitute the parson-
age front on the south side. The
length of 12O feet is on Washing
ton street. The rear wall will not
be far from Squire Weidman's res
idence. The preaching room will
be the corner room, the room in
the rear of that, the Sunday chOol
room and the room in the rear of that
the infant Sunday school room. A
door from each of those rooms will
open on Washington street. There
is to be a large cupalo on the corn
er and two smaller cupalOes. The
building will be the best locker in
town. The preliminary steps Ol
clearing the ground were taken on
Saturday last when the stable was
removed from the rear end of the
parsonage lot. The sexton Wal
lace Fasick and family have NOV
ed out of the sextOn's house locat
ed between the present parsonage
and the present church building
Mr.. Fasick and family have moved
into house owned by DR.. Atkin.
son across the alley from Judge
Lyons home. The sexton's house
is to be taken down this week. Ex
: cavating for the foundation is to be
gin at once and before long the
parsonage will be taken dowI
brick for brick and the materia,
utilized in the new edifice.

SENSATIONAL ATTEMPT
At Shoplifting at Geo. c. Hayes
& Cos Store.

Prominent Young Woman Purloins .
very Valuable Diamond Ring -0ver-
hauled and taken back to the Store
Ring found on her Finger-She De
mics Criminal Intent.
George G. Hayes & Co., jewelers.,
came very near losing seventy five
dollar cluster diamond ring Thurs
day afternoon as result of visit
paid them by prominent young
lady of the town. The girl is mem
Der of one of The best families in
town but her name will not be di-
yulged by the firm who promised her
not to reveal it.
The young woman in question
came into the store about 3 o'clock
and asked to be shown some dia-
mond rings. Two trays were taken
out and shown to her. After exam
lining them tor some time and pricing
several Of them she asked to be
shown some emeralds.
Mr. Hayes turned to get these and
after looking over them the young
lady walked out. Mr.. Hayes glanc-
ed at one of the trays which had
been full and noticed that one Of the
rings was gone. He called Russell
and asked if it had been sold.
He replied that it had not and at
once was dispatched after the shop
litter Going up Walnut street just
as she turned the corner into Main
she glanced at her finger admiring
something Russell caught up with
her and asked her to return to the
store. She demurred but finally
went back.
The purloined ring was found on
her finger it being too tight to be
removed as she had attempted to do
several times on the way back. 1t
had to be taken off with soap. The
process was very painful one both
physically and mentally to the young
woman. She begged Mr.. Hayes to
keep the matter secret which has
been done as far as her identity is
concerned.
The excuse given for the attempt
was that she wished to take the
ring home to show it to her mother
before deciding to purchase it. No
explanation was given of the fact
that she had said nothing about her
intentions and had taken it without
saying anything about it all.
