Hancock Jared"

The town OF Hancock, Md, was
shaken by an earthquake. Friday
night, until houses rocked and
windows ratified, causing resi-
dents to become greatly alarmed.
The seismic disturbance was
also felt all through tie neighbor-
ing region in Pennsylvania and
West Virginia. At Berkley
Springs the shock was felt dis
tiuctlY. A rumbling noise like
distant thunder was heard, FOL
lowed by wave which extended
far up into this county, and was
felt in every town and village
through that section.
The disturbance lasted for a
few seconds and at first 1t was
thought to have been caused by a
terrific explosion. Later it was
learned that the shock was felt
for many miles around Hancock.

What Is in a Drop OF Blood.

A distinguished German pro-
fessor recently announced that if
a drop of human blood was placed
under a microscope capable of
magnlfylng it twenty millions of
times, it would show all kinds of
ANIMALS that have ever existed, or
now existing on the earth. In
the blood of a healthy person the
animals are quiet, in that of a sick
person they fight. From this he
draws the conclusion that man
has within HIM all the elements
from which the universe was Gre
ated. He further says that il a
dead cat was flung in a pond of
water and left to decompose, the
drops of water should show, when
under the microscope, all the AMI
mails belonging to the cat species.

INcENpIARY IN MERcERsBuRG
The U. ?. Church burned

An incendiary applied the torch
to the old United Presbyterian
church at Mercersburg early on
Saturday morning. 1t was burned
to the ground, nothing standing
but the four stone walls. About
2:30 o'clock Mrs. Calvin Wilson,
who lives across the street from
the church. saw a light in the
building and very soou discovered
it was fire. Then she saw man
run away from the building. An
alarm was given, but the irebug
had made sure of the success of
his work. The Eclipse FIRE COM
pany could not respond in time be-
cause the keyhole in the door had
been stuffed with paper and the
key taken away. Finally, du-
plicate key was obtained from one
of the councilmen, but the flames
had gained too great headway.
The incendlary made certain there
should be sufficient draught for the
flames, for he had opened three
windows on one side and two on
the other. The building had been
bought recently by Rev. r. f.
Fetteroff for $2500. He had in
tended to convert it into a shirt
waist factory, but changed his
,,ans and removed the industry to
Selinsgrove. 1t was of stone.
The pews were in the church at
the time of the fire and were
burned. There was small in
surance on the building.
The church was erected at a cost
of $4,000. 1t was built in 1868.
The congregation is no longer In
existence. The last pastor was
Rev. j. f. Black, who served from
1878 to 1888. Since that time and
until the remaining members afh-
lated with the McConnellsburg
church of the same denomination
it had been supplied by United
Presbyterian ! inisters. In years
gone by it had been handsome

Be a Good NeighbOr.

Some men are never on good
terms with their neighbors.
What is worse than to quarrel
with a neighbor The toothache
is nothing to it. You cannot bear
anything from one of his family.
If his children are in your yard,
Upon your fence, they must be
driven away with harsh words
poor innocent little things who
have not learned the ways of the
world. You forbid your wife
who is perhaps disposed to for
get-ever to borrow or lend TO
the adversary-not to speak to
his children, or have anything
whatsoever to do with the family.
Does not a man feel badly who
has such a disposition and quar-
rels with his neighbors? ? All this
Is very dlsagreeable. How much
more comfortable it Is to be a
good neighbor. Overlook the
faults and folbles of your friend.
If he is morose and sour in his
disposition, there is more neces-
sity for you to be torbearlng,
mild and persuasive. You have
a short time to live, then spend
your days in peace.
