BALLENTINE, 1124 Walnut Street, Philadelphia. Pa. MARY and JOHN It's a pleasure to talk; to pour your thoughts in whispered verses into the willing ear of some lair maid. But when it comes to shoveling your ideas into the cold unsympathetic fog horn, like shoveling coal into a coal hole, you begin to think "silence is golden." Our success with defective eyes is loudly commented upon and will appeal to you. If your head has a phonopraph attachment, all you need is eyes to know the place.

From the Mauch Chunk Times. Al. H. Hahn, who has been confined in jail here past several weeks in default of bail to answer at court a charge of swindling, preferred against him by Landlord Schwelbinz, of the Central Hotel, was released from prison this afternoon. The man's release was the outcome of a conference between District AttorNothstein and Mr.

Schweibinz, in which the latter agreed to withdraw the charge. This was deemed advisable, because Hahn's hallucination that he is a traveling salesman detained in jail without cause, had gained such a hold upon him as to render him almost a physical wreck.

Frank Roth. EAGLE FLIES OFF WITH PIG. Jersey Farmer Discovers the Reason His Poultry Yard Is Depleted. Farmer Joseph Alvater, who lives three miles west of Flemington, N. has been a heavy loser of chickens and turkeys the past summer.

How they disappeared was a mystery. Monday he heard a terrible commotion in his apple orchard. Alvater hastened to the grove and observed his big Shepherd dog "Rover" and a big bald-headed eagle battling fiercely. Nearly lay a four-weeks-old pig. The pig had been attacked by the eagle and killed.

Before Alvater could reach the scene the bird administered "Rover" a terrific blow with its immense claws. The dog shrieked with pain and with its tail between its legs ran yelping to the house, and refused to leave the yard. The eagle then fastened its claws into the pig and bore it away to the woods. Mr. Alvater hastened to the house, and procuring his shotgun gave chase.

The bird was soon lost to sight, but as Alvater was passing a ravine in which were high trees, his attention was again attracted by a noise. He hurried to the place and discovered that another battle was in progress. This time the participants were a large coon and two eagles. Alvater's appearance put the birds to flight, but he brought them down with his gun. The coon escaped under a tree.

The place was strewn with feathers, and it was evident that the birds carried all their prey to this spot and then devoured it. eagles and coon had evidently fought for the possession of the pig, as it lay where the contest had occurred. The eagles were as large as full-grown turkeys and measured three feet from tip to tip. Other farmers in that vicinity have been heavy losers of poultry, and it is thought that a whole family of these birds have made their home in the trees. MISTAKEN FOR A HIGHWAYMAN.

A Victim of Robbery Held Him Up on the Charge of Being the Fellow. Carrol Smith, of Southern California, who has been spending the past week In Norristown, was the victim there two or three evenings ago in the denoument of an attempted highway robbery. Patrick Mack and his sister, Miss Minnie Mack, were driving on the Arch Street road, near the Germantown turnpike, when a strange mian leaped from ambush, and, seizing the horse's mane, attempted to climb on its back, at the same time calling on Mr. Mack to stop. Instead of complying, Mr.

Mack whipped up his horse, and as highwayman rolled falling in the road, drove off to a farmhouse, where he induced a farmer to join Each him in armed a search with a for gun, the banditrent back over the road and, when near the spot where the attempted hold-up took place, met Mr. Smith, who was walking le surly along, intending to visit some friends. Each raised his gun and called on Mr. Smith halt. The latter looked for a second over two gleaming to, gun barrels, and stopping in his tracks, demanded an explanation.

Asked his name he promptly gave it and proceeded to establish his identity, but his story was not credited. "Are you the man that tried to stop my team asked Mack. Mr. Smith assured his custodians that he was not. He was then escorted between loaded double-tarrel guns to the house of a Mr.

Roney, an acquaintance, who satisfled the men that Mr. Smith was not the man they were looking for. Apologies followed and the two separated, and in the meantime the real highwayman got out of that section of country. Withdrew His Allegation. About eight months ago Otto J.

The Originator of "See." It was Bartley Campbell, the journalist and playwright, who was responsible for the exclamation "See!" Bartley had long, bony fingers, and by tapping an auditor on the breastbone with them and exclaiming "See!" he made many a man "see" what it would have taken a hundred words to elucidate. Dan O'Leary, the famous old ball player, is responsible for the habit many people have of speaking of things past in the present tense. It is very odd to hear Dan tell the story of some ball game which occurred, as Mrs. Florence used to say, "Yers and yers ago," about like this: "We're playin the Nonpareils, an the score is 10 to 9 agin us in the last innin. I hev every dollar in the world I hev up on our winnin, an the excitement is tremjous.

Outside appearances are necessary to attract buyers, but the vital parts of a bicycle are not on the surface, and a good enamel frequently covers a multitude of workshop sins. Few people are skillful enough to determine the true value of a bicycle by giving it a cursory examination, so the better way would be to invest in a wheel that has built up an unassailable reputation for HONEST VALUE.

SILVER BULLION. We will accept trade in silver bullion which is now selling at 69 cents per ounce. The election of the Democratic nominee for president, together with a gress favorable to silver and the passage of a free coinage bill would at once result in an advance to $1.29. It looks as though buying silver was a "cinch." There is less than 1,500,000 ounces in sight in the United States; so that $1,000,000 present would "corner" the entire stock. H.
