Considerable uneasiness and excitement was created in this community on Thursday Jast by the sudden and mysterious death of two fine horses belonging to Mr. W. R. Pumphrey, undertaker at this place, and this feeling was further augmented by the death on Sunday morning of another horse belonging to the same gentleman. Pre- vious to the death of the third horse the contents of the stomachs of the two first vietims to.the mysterious disease had been sent to the Agricultural Department for analysis, as there was a suspicion that they had been poisoned. When the last animal died a telegram was sent to State Veterinary Surgeon Ward, and to this that gentleman responded by coming here on Sunday evening. After viewing the dead animal and learning the symptoms previous to death the doctor was taken to the pas- ture lot where the horses had been kept, and found that a large limb had been cut from a ved maple tree, and upon the leaves of this the horses had been feeding. He at once gave it as his opinion that the par- tially fermented and withered leaves were the cause of death, and cited similar cases in his practice. Among the contents of the two stomachs taken out were a large number of these leaves. On Friday two gentlemen from the Agricultural Depart- ment came here and made a thorough search of the pasture lot, and took with them a large number ef specimens of the various bushes, weeds and other prodvcts of the land. It is expected that further light will be thrown upon the subject when the analysis of the contents of the stom- achs has been completed. The opinion of Dr. Ward in regard to the cause of death was quite a relief to the people of the community, as previous to his coming there was a suspicion that the animals had been poisoned by some evil-disposed person. ——__ FOREST GLEN.

A little girl of seven years, who resides in Medina, and boasts of a large family of dolls, thought it would be a nice thing to present her oldest “daughter” with a piano. So she sat down at a table, and soberly penned a letter to a New York man- ufacturer, directing the shipment of a piano to her address. In a few days a reply was received, stating that the manufacturer's agent in Rochester would call to effect the sale, and soon after the agent arrived. The mother was obliged to explain the state of affairs, and how the child had or- dered the piano for her doll without her knowledge. The result was that the piano was placed in the house on trial, and, though the mother protested that she had no use for it, the seven-year-old is now taking lessons, and the agent counts the sale as good as made. = UNIVERSITY NOTES.

It was found that seven persons had been seriously injured, while at least fifty per- sons received cuts and bruises. Many of the people were sitting directly beneath the boom when it was pushed through the vessel, and those who received the most serious injuries are: Mrs. John Sanderson of Ada, Ohio, arms broken, internally injured; will die. Miss Annie Zimmerman, student of Ada, Ohio, was covered in the debris, and only her head visible; her chest is crushed, and four ribs broken; she cannot lve. Miss Jessle Jackson, student, Ada, Ohio, fatally injured about the head and chest. Miss Grace Garwood, Ada, Ohio, chest crushed and internally injured; will die. Miss Nellie Garwcod, sister of Grace, re- ceived about the same injuries; cannot live. John E. Miller, Bucyrus, Ohio, crushed about shoulders and chest; is in a critical condition. James Parley, Bucyrus, Ohio, injured about the lower limbs, and arm broken. SS ee WILL GO TO COURT. Senator Quay Will Compel .the Com- bine to Surrender Books and Papers. Chairman Gilkeson of the republican state committee of Pennsylvania has made up the roll of delegates to the coming state convention, which wiil meet Wednes- day. The list as prepared by Mr. Gilkeson does not differ materialiy from those here- tofore published. Among the changes made is that Bradford county is allowed but three delegates by Mr. Gilkeson instead of four, as claimed, and the first district of Berks county gets but two instead of three. The Ist as issued does not indicate who will be dropped in the counties. All the Hestings meh are iisted from the first and fifth districts in Philadelphia, where there are contests. It now seems probable that the contest for the chairmanship of the state com- mittee wHl be carried inte the courts in the form of an action on behalf of Senator Quay, to compel Chairman Gilkeson to surrender the books and papers of the committee. The members of that body will hold a meeting today, at which a resolution will be adopted requesting Mr. Gilkeson to attend and assist In the prepa- ration of the roll of delegates. He will almost certainly refuse, and then it is proposed that the committee elect Thomas V. Cooper of Delaware county, temporary chairman. Legal steps will then be taken to compel Mr. Gllkeson to surrender the books, and an auditing committee will be appointed to examine his accounts. This program will probably be carried out witheut opposition, as it is the policy of the Hastings people to ignore any action the state committee may take. — The Star Out of Town. THE EVENING STAR will be sent by mail to any address in the United States or Canada for such period as may be desired at the rate of fifty cents per month.
