Two young men passed by about this time nnd were saluted by one of the girls with the interrogatory, "Oh, where did you get that hat Tho question grated harshly on the cars of the two sensitive young men and they proceeded to blackguard tbe Gearing party. This Gearing resented and he demanded an explanation.

As he advanced one of the loud mouthed fellows drew a revolver, but before he could fire Gearing knocked him down by sudden motion of the right nrm applied horizontally from the shoulder. The pros-trate fellow's companion then drew a revolver and fired at Geariog, the ball just glancing his right temple. Meanwhile the fellow who had been knocked down scrambled to his feet and fired as Gearing came towards him. I orlunately the nail btruck Gearing's left arm wh eh he held in front of his face as a protection from his murderous assailants. A third shot followed, the ball passing through the back of the coat of the now wounded min, after which the Arners of ll.e firearms ran away as fast as their legs could carry them.

Oreencastle. Another game of ball was played, on Wednesday afternoon, between the Juniors of Shippensburg, and the boys from Green-castle. From the start it was observed that the game would not be as interesting as the one played last week with Cham-bersburg. The Grecnrastle boys went first to the bat, and in the first few innings made one run which was all they made until the ist Inning, when the scored two more making three, which was all they made during the gume. The home team scored ileven and toward the latter part of the game it was thought they grew careless.

Wengerd umpired the game in his usual fair and satisfactory inr.niier. The deportment of both clubs on the ball field and during the game was excellent. About one hundred persons were present to witness the game, among whom were a number of ladies.

One day last week while a rentleman from the country was walking toward the depot, a stone thro by a boy struck him on the leg: not intentional. A few days later a' lady fro.ni Harribburg, visiting in this place, while passing along with some friends, was struck on the ankle with a stone thrown by some thougli'iess boy; not intentional, by any means.

Some one will yet be seriously injured, not intentionally, if this practice is not stopped. Our authoiities will be com pcllid to enforce the ordinance. This is unpleasant, but we cannot afford to have persons injured just to satisfy careless, thoughtless boys. Shoes Store. of all kinds at Coffey's Cheap Eobbery.
