Bennett S. (indium, of Newport, made a prompt and efficient juror, but, it was impossible for his friends to keep him from hovering around that portion of the court room reserved for the ladies. F.x-Judgo Junkin is a patient man. Like Job of sacred story he was alllicted during the week with two boils that closely resembled pine-apples, yet ho wailed through his multiplicity of' labors with scarcely a murmur and with Spartan fortitude, notw ithstanding the hideous red things clung like leeches to that portion of his anatomy which hurl most when he sat down. The only way he could got to see the boils was to go down on the floor and craw up one of his logs.

The new act of assembly regulating the impanelling of a jury was rigidly adhered to during the week and gave" the utmost satisfaction. Twenty jurors are now called instead of twelve, thereby enabling lawyers and suitors to know who will constitute the jury. Sheriff Shearer's absence from court for a time on Monday was due to the fact that he wasonhis return from York, whither ho wont, to meet relatives ami join with llieln in extending a hearty welcome to an uncle ho has been absent on the Pacific slope for thirty-live years. The home of this uncle, who is a cattle ranchman, is distant one hundred and fifty miles from a railroad. The ease of Hepburn vs.

00. Commonwealth vs. William Stam-baugh. Charge assault and battery. William Stanibaugh, supervisor of Spring township, was the prosecutor in this case, and AVilliani Stanibaugh, of Tyrone, the defendant.

The latter charged that the former injured his lands by turning waste water thereon from the public roads, and at the public sale of Major (ieorge A. Sliuman, in I.audisburg, the parties met. Stanibaugh, of Tyrone, called Stanibaugh, of Spring, a old lying hypocrite," and gave him a shove backward, hence the necessity for a legal adjudication of their difficulties.

Common wealth vs. Daniel 15. Smith, Fish Warden Major J. K. Dunbar charged Daniel with violating the lish laws by dragging a sein in the Juniata river.

Daniel denied the charge absolutely and succeeded in convincing the" jury that he was an innocent man, as a verdict of not guilty was speedily rendered amidst the plaudits of the spectators. Had it been possible to do so the costs would have been put upon the prosecutor, but a provision in the lish laws compels the county to pay them. Charles Troutman vs. Jesse Johnston. This was an appeal by defendant from a judgement on the docket of Justice Mc-(iinuess and was tried under what is known as the eslray law.

Tins parties live in Buffalo township. Johnston owned a brindle heifer and Troutman owned a farm. The heifer strayed on to the farm and Troutman penned her up, advertised her in the Nkwookt sold her and bought her, all in accordance with law. It was alleged that the heifer could beat. Sam Patch on a jump.

On one occasion Valentino Arndt went to Troutman to buy the heifer. She was turned out into the barnyard for inspection. The animal stuck her tail straight into the air and jumped over the barn. Mr. Arndt said hedidn'l want her.

The heifer then walked by with stately tread as much as to say, if the moon was out I'd jump over it." On the part of the defense it was claimed that the heifer was not an estray in the interpretation of the law; that by reason of Troutman's fences being in a dilapidated condition and unneighborly the heifer and all other animals of the bovine species could walk on his farm with impunity. Johnston tendered Troutman for keepingthe animal, but the latter wanted for his trouble and the expense he incurred. The jury rendered a verdict for the defendant. The next move in the promises will be the institution of a suit by Johnston to recover the value of the heifer. Kmanuel Kell and wife vs.

Tliis case was tried bv Judge Howe, of Franklin county, Judge Harnett having been interested therein as counsel prior to his elevation to. the bench It was an action brought to settle a guardianship account.

ami Captain ami 11. 1', Celebrate Their Fortieth Wedding Anniversary. Captain and Mrs, It. F. Miller few days since recalled to mind the fact that It was about torlv years since thev been united in the bonds of matrimfiny and finally concluded that it would be pleasant to have a few of their friends with them at their home, in Miver town ship, in commemoration of the event, This naturally led them to think over their list of friends and of course the number assumed huge proport ions.

They could not have all present, to whom they would be pleased to extend the hospitalities of their houso- hold, and as a basis on which to buiKl so as not to exceed the capacity of their home, it was decided to gather together us many as possible of llieir old hoarders when they kept hotel, with their wives and a few other friends. Informal invitations were extended to forty persons probably to meet our friends at their home last AVednesday evening, the fortieth anniversary of the day that had witnessed the sealing of the vows which made them man and wife. The invited guests assembled at the residence of Mr. P. Bossermaii and shortly after six clock started in two large sleds an two sleighs for the scone of the pleasures whieo were later experienced.

The ride to the Miller mansion was uneventful but pleasant, the moon shining clearly it not as brilliantly as it shone later, flu captain and his estimable wife, assisted by thoirequally estimable 'laughter, Mrs. AV. II. Bossermaii, and their youngest son, Mr. Harry Miller, met the visitors upon their arrival, greeted them with characteristic cordiality and succeeded in making each one comfortable.

The host is a lover of music, both vocal and instrumental, and the same spirit seems to have descended to his daughter (reference to whom has already been made) and bis grand children, the daughter's oll'spring. One of the guests, thoughtful of bis host's predilections in a musical way, had taken a violin with him and the first air played was "Auld Lang Syne" quite appropriate. A letter from Air. J. C.

Barrett was read, expressive of his congratulations and at the same time regret of his inability to bo present because of previous engagements ailing him away from home at, that time. The captain was also reminded in the note of the epicurean capacities of several of his male guests, but ample provision had been made to entertain all ho were expected to come even had they all been half-starved at the hour nf eating. The hours passed rapidlv, and from nine until ten o'clock the guests devoted themselves to eating the delightful refreshments with which thev were served. There were ham. turkey and egg sandwiches chicken salid and the crispest whitest celery; diminutive cucumber pickles appet i.iug as a forty hours fast and coffee with cream a daily supply of hich was the envy of all the ladies present.

Then there were also several kinds of cakes, ice cream and fruit, constituting a most enjoyable repast Short ly afterward leave was taken of those whose hospitality had been so freely enjoyed, and before eleven o'clock all had arrived safely at their respective homes, well pleased with their experiences of tin? evening. In addition to Mr. and Mrs. W. II, Bossermaii and their children, the following persons were present: and Airs.

The Ix'tral Transacted at Hlmimllold This Week. The January term of the Terry county courts began" at liloointield on Monday afternoon at one o'clock. President Judge. Harnett and Associate ((arbor were promptly in their seats, but -Associate dadden'wiH detained at home by reason of sickness. Deputy Trothono-tary finish was in the Heat that knew him so long and well as prothonotary, mid cursed the jurors and witnesses with his usual religious vigor.

Prothonotary iionsall was bv his side learning his lesson like a little man. Hecordor Smith leaned carelessly on the, corner of the judges' desk, owing to a loafer occupying his accustomed seat. The oilier court ollicials were at their posts of duty, while among the audience was a fair sprinkling of lovely women with all their faults (iod bless them." The general attendance was unusually large and the old machine started oil' in a manner that showed it had been well lubricated. After the echo of the crier's "hoar ye and "hear ye!" had twice rebounded from the liidge Mahonoy, the constables made their returns ami the grand jurors were sworn and charged. Constables David (iussler, James Mumper and Samuel iller were detailed to execute the commands of the court.

Traverse Jurors John H. (table, of Howe, and J. H. I.eiby, of Newport, were excused from attendance. Tavern license was granted to II.

He was detected in the act and bis pursuit and capture is familiar to the readers of the News. When called i up for trial lie promptly plead guilty and appealed to the mercy ot the court, Commonwealth vs. F. Davis Owens. Surety of the peace.

The prosecutor in this action was (I. b. Weiinor, and the defendant the well-known Liverpool tav- crn-keepcr. The parties had business transactions and met in the olliee of I Justice Tharp to settle accounts. Hot ords ensued which culminated in Ow-: ens threatening to blow AVeimor's head off.

After hearing the testimony the court dismissed the action and directed that Owens pay the costs of prosecution. i Commonwealth vs. John Stone. Sure-i ly of the peace. From a point of the i compass rendered historic as the birlh-I place of Chief Justice Cibson and Fx-: Senator Smiley, and now made famous as the home of Thompson Dowalt.

and nigger caiupmectings, this case came up. The prosecutor was a lad named Sylves-' tor Durham. Stone married Sylvester's mother, Mrs. Fmma Durham, who has several other children. Sylvester and i bis rosy-cheokod sister Lillic, swore thai, Ion the L'Oth and 21st of December last, their stepfather began to make prepu-, rations for a jolly observance of i ii as by niassacroing the entire family, I His wrath was aroused by one of the household accidentally hitting him on the nose with a cake and he cried aloud I for vengeance.

And no wonder, for nl-! though theeakewas freshly baked it had i frozen in the stove, was as hard as a stone and weighed a pound. When John Stone took the witness stand in his own behalf the fun began and soon be-, came so boisterous that Judge Harnett was compelled to abandon li is gavel and send cat! to a neighboring smith shop I fora maul with which to preserve order, When the witness got a thirty pound pressure on lie talked as fast as a man I falling off a house, as fast as a streak of lightning in the absurd attempt, to beat i all other streaks of lightning, lie spoke of his wife as the groat bouncer" and told how she had bounced him oil' the premises twice. He compared her to a lortle" because "all she lias is on her back," and in his peroration said that her tongue revolved on a pivot and threw oil' one hundred and sixty-seven words to the revolution. The affair in its entirely was one of those domestic broils hich so often happen in every well-regulated family and without which life would be a failure in a community whore circuses never come. The court dismissed the ease and directed that the county pay the costs, evidently with the view to keep the parties from going to jail.

A short time afterward the entire, family met in I he olliee of Lawyer Mc-A lister ami held a reunion. John withdrew a charge against Sylvester for carrying concealed deadly weapons. The husband and wife (unbraced, the children rose uii and called them blessed, while the other witnesses gathered around and shouted paeans of joy and thanksgiving. Then they collected their costs and the procession moved. Commonwealth vs.

Franklin Stani-buugh. Charge fornication and bastardy and seduction. The plaintiff in this action was Rebecca A. (iarlin, of Center township. She is a pleasant faced hruncttcof a pronounced type, with a wealth of coal-black hair and whose demeanor in the witness box at times reminded one of the beautiful character of Kebeeca the Jewess in Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe." She swore that at the home of the defendant's parents, in Spring township, in the year whore she was employed as a domestic, Franklin, who is three years her junior, seduced her underthe promise ot marriage.

As an evidence of that seduction she had with her a bright little boy that, bore the unmistakable and indelible features of his pop." Franklin then lied to the west ami but recently returned home. The defense admitted the charge of fornication and bastardy but stubbornly resisted the charge of seduction, contending that instead of Franklin seducing Rebecca, Uobecca had seduced Franklin, that, Kebeeca had gone too often to the well (or the spring-house as tin; testimony showed it to be in this case), to get her pitcher filled, the sad sequel cul minating in a criminal court. 1 lie jury returned a verdictof guilty of fornication and bastardy only. Commonwealth vs. Henry Kice.
