Horse Poisoned With Paris Green

Ross Phillips, of Glen Roy,
started for Woodlawn Camp on
Sunday morning but on reaching
Calvert noticed his horse was sick,
the animal growing rapidly worse
and dying in short time. Later
in seeking the cause of the animals s
death, traces of paris green were
found in the manger from which
it had been fed that morning.
Veterinary Young held a post
mortem on the carcass and found
large quantities of paris green in
the stomach. Mr.. Phillips does
not know whether he is the victim
of some person instigated with the
devil, or criminal carelessness on
the part of some person in throwing
the poison about. His horse was a
fine one and valued at 5000.

Warehouse Burned.

The large brick and frame ware
house in Quarryville, used for
storage purposes and occupied by
William Myers, blind man, as a
broom factory, was burned Tuesday
night, together with contents. Mr..
Myers lost his broom making
machinery, lot of brooms and
big stock of broom corn. Among
the other contents destroyed were a
carload of salt, quantity of hay and
straw, several wagons, lot of farm
machinery, &c., belonging to J.
W. McElhany, E. b. Fritz and
Hershey & Fritz, the owners of
the building.
The railroad station and the
store of j. w. McElhany, which
were in close proximity, were saved
by bucket brigade. The towns
chemical engine, which had not
been used for two years, had to be
recharged, but when brought into
play showed its usefulness in saving
property.
The fire was discovered by the
fireman of the passenger engine
which lies at Quarryyille over
night, and the alarm given by the
blowing of the whistle. The origin
is unknown. The building is the
second one destroyed on the site,
the first being burned in 1881, when
it was stored with a big stock OF
tobacco. There was a partial in
surance on the property burned.

petition of Fred w. Eder, son OF

Landlord and Tenant AT Odds.

The Circuit Court in special ses-
sion last week, Judge Austin L.
Crothers presiding, heard the
equity case of Jacob B. Cazier vs..
Gideon M. Clark.
The case was the outgrowth of
disagreement of landlord and ten
ant. Clark resided on Cazier's
farm in the First district, which
the latter had recently sold. Clark
claimed he was the tenant of the
farm and entitled to one-half of the
crops, and that he owns the stock
on the farm. Cazier claimed that
Clark was only employed by him,
and asked that a receiver be ap-
pointed to take charge of the prop
erty in dispute, pending settle
ment of the case, claiming that
while Clark gave note for the
stock some ten years ago the title to
the property was to remain in him
(Cazier) until Clark paid said note.
The note had not been paid.
Judge Crothers reserved the
Courts decision finally finding for
Mr.. Cazier and granting the
petition.
The counsel in the case were
William S. Evans and George A.
Blake for Cazier; Albert Constable
and Joshua Clayton for Clark.
