Tough Character in Limbo.

The following account of the arrest of
King, who is now in Jail in this place,
was received from our Shippenville cor
respondent. Quite number of the
readers of the Democrat will remember
the King and Davis murder case OF some
years past and will be somewhat sur
prised TO learn that the man King, who
served term in the Western Penitentary
for the killing of Davis, was arr ested
February IS for brutslly assaulting his
wife. AS our correspondent learns the
facts he used tie butt of gun on her,
breaking her arm and doing her bodily
injury. He also, we understand, threat
ened to shoot the first person who under
took to make an arrest. The warrant be-
ing given to Mr.. Harrison Kiser of this
place, he deputized e. E. Thompson and
started after the man King. Upon driv-
ing up to the house they saw King sitting
in the room with a gun. They then
drove by short distance and on coming
back Mr.. Thompson covered King with
his gun through the window and Mr..
Kiser proceeded to place his man under
arrest and ornamented him with the
bracelets of the law. They then started
for Clarion where the prisoner was hand
ed over to the keeping of the Sheriff. He
was brought to the Clarion Jail Sunday
where he will await the development of
legal proceedings. Democrat.

IF compulsory vaccination is such a
good thing and so essential, whv don't
the law compel school teachers to be vac
cinated, as well as the pupils. And why
shouldn't the school directors be vacci-
mated, and the par ents as well as the
children? Aud why shouldn't all the
people who crowd the theatres, and the
churches, and the basket ball games, and
the bowling alleys, aud the bar rooms,
be vaccinated as well as all the rest.
Either compel all to be vaccinated, or
none. The law as it now stands is une-
quail, unfair, and unjust, and is working
an injury to our public schools, says the
Brookvile Democrat, and there's heap
of sense III il, too.

Harmless, Necessary Evil.

The bridegroom is generally the most
depressing feature of the modern we'd
ding. If he is well Off he is either bald,
with decided tendency to adlpose tls-
sue, or else of pale, sandy type, with
equally pale eyes and retreating chin.
In ordinary life he wears spectacles,
which at the request of the bride he
discards at the wedding, with the re-
suit that he stumbles over the last step
leading from the chancel to the altar
rails and is only saved from falling
fiat on his face by desperately clutch
ing at the brides bouquet. - Ladies'

THE fact that there are women who
fonde dogs and buy them expensive
wardrotes aud provide them with the
most expensive luxuries, is perhaps not
without its compensations. 1t places
these aristocratic CANNES in contrast with
the little waits of humanity that are neg.
lected by society and permitted TO die
among the rags of cellars and garrets. If
dog may be pampered like princess,
bedecked with diamonds and made the
object of tenderest solicitude, how much
more shame ii is that poor little child
should be denied the ordinary comforts
of lifel Thus it may be seen that even
the most exaggerated forms of imbecility
have their uses -Puxny Spirit.

THE grounding should be investi-
gated. He emerged from his hole on
February 2, three weeks ago today, saw
his shadow aud retired abruptly to his
underground quarters. And the weather
has been ideal almost ever since. Com
menting on this subject the Washington
Post says; ave have always regarded
the grounding as an unmtigated humbug
and imposter. From the preposterous
abortion we turn to the chronicles of
rabbit ferocily and devastation with a
genuine relief. AT least our Molly Cot
tontail soorns the refuge of superstition
and ignorant alarm. Give a rabbit two
fingers Of moonshine whisky and it will
spit in the face of bulldog and then
chase that astonished animal into the ad-
joining county. The grounding, on the
other hand, is slothful, stupid beast,
void OF eigor and signifying nothing. He
pretends to be clarvoyant, an oracle,
and be is nothing but a meretricious
mountebank."

1T is very greatly to be desired that
Secretary of Internal Affairs Isaac b.
Brown should succeed in his effort to
compel the Pennsylvania railroad to de-
sist from its nefarious practice of requir-
ing deposit of ten dollars on twenty
dollar mileage book. The mileage book,
it would seem to an ordinary observer,
ought to be yours when you pay for it.
But it appears that the railroad people
sell you nothing but the contents of tire
book. They do not sell you the back f,
and this deposit of ten dollars is to insure
the return of the cover. The wicked in
sinustion that the Pennsylvania railroad
takes this method of compelling the pub
lie to lend it ten or fifteen million dollars
annually without interest is of course
without foundation in fact. Just think
what calamity it would be if the Penn
sylvania railroad we're to run out of COW
ers for its m ileage booksl-Punxy Spirit
