POUNDED THE POSTMASTER
Now Thomas Moore and James Briggs
Are Charged With Delaying Mail.

Deputy United States Marshal Nc
Grath went to Oneida today to arrest
Thomas Moore and James Briggs. who
are charged with obstructing the United
States mails Mr. McGrath was not re-
sponsible for the story that he went to
hunt Harry Tracy.
The case is one where the two men
charged with the offense publicly whip
ped the postmaster and delayed him
while he was carrying the mail to the
train. A new postmaster was appointed
for Oneida recently and his manage
ment of the office did not satisfy the
above named gentlemen who proceeded
to endeavor to rectify matters and reg
ulate them to suit themselves. They
waited for the postmaster one day while
he was carrying the mail to the train
and tried to convert him to their way
of thinking by the use of their fists
Obstructing the United States mails is
a serious charge, and they will now have
to stand trial for an offense unwitting1y
committed.

Shooting Stars

The fourth supposition is shat these
earth. This theory is false, because a
body that would revolve around this
earth must have velocity of not less
than 5 miles per second, nor greater
than miles per second. If the velocity
were less than miles, the body would
fall to the earth; if the velocity were
greater than miles per second, the
body would recede from the earth,
never to return. Now the aerolites
haye all velocity of over Il miles per
second.
The fifth and only true theory is, that
the aerolites are satellites of the sun
and not of the earth. All the facts
known respecting shooting stars, deton-
ating meteors and aeroites lead to the
conclusion, that they are all minute
bodies revolving like the comets in orb
its around the sun. They revolve in
clusters or groups, met by our earth at
different seasons.
The important fact, that meteoric
bodies have furnished the NJ m elements
as are found on earth intimates that
these meteors and the earth had
common origin.
Now comes the question: are the
stars and planets inhabited?
Over 300.00 stars have been counted
with the aid OF gooi telescopes, and yet
we know, that there must be countless
thousands of stars, larger than our sun,
but how many no one can tell, but He,
who called them into existence. How
beautiful does the Bible exclaim God s
power, by saying. The heavens show
forth the glory of God, and the irma.

Simp1e Device Which Will Prevent An.

Mir. Val Prinsep has had the dstinc-
ton of being summoned for allowing q
cock to crow in the morning, to the
Inconvenience of his neighbors. He
showed common sense desire to
avoid annoyance though the said
neighbor lived a quarter of mile
from the fowl house, and the magis-
trate cWjncet1 no desire to harass the
artist.
But really it is quite possible to keep
fowls and prevent them from crow
ing. All that is needed is a slight
string over the neck and fastened to
. foot. It is the habit OF chanticleer
90 throw back his head when crow
ing. and he will not crow If prevented
as he may be by the string from doing
&c.
The contriVance has the great merit
of inflicting no pain whatever. Tbs
bird scarcely knows Of the pressure
OF the string till he tries to crow. and
a harmless jerk brings him to erder.-
