Harry BREY, the lower end butcher in Pennsburg on Friday had quite a thrilling experience in trying to save a seven hundred pound steer from drowning after it fell into a neighbors well. The animal was being driven to the slaughter house and before it got there it started to run away. In its flight it jumped the fence between Mr. BREY's place and that of Frank WALT's lot and after getting on the other side it wanted to cross a well but the floor gave way and it fell into it. The well was about twenty feet deep with about ten feet of water. Mr. BREY hurriedly secured a rope and when the animal came up out of the water with its head the second time he lassoed it over the horns. Help came and with the aid of a horse hitched to the rope the animal was extricated from the well. Mr. BREY did not expect to rescue the animal alive until he succeeded in getting the rope over its horns. While being taken out the upper wall around the well caved in and this aided the steer to get a foot hold and save itself from drowning.

His father, Wm. K. HUBER, being a farmer, the boy obtained his elementary training on the farm, and in the public schools of his native township. At the age of fifteen he was employed as a clerk in the store of Harvey D. ALDERFER, at Sassamansville. The following year he served in the same capacity, at the same place, for Mr. ALDERFER's successor, A.H. KEELY. When seventeen years of age he was apprenticed to John H. RENNINGER to learn the trade of bricklayer and stone mason, at which he worked during the summer, for twenty years. In the spring of 1872, he entered Kallynean Acadamy, at Boyertown, than in charge of the late Prof. Isaac B. HANKEY, with the avowed object to prepare himself to teach in the public schools. In the fall of the same year he was elected as one of the teachers of New Hanover township, where he took charge of Pleasant Run school, and taught that school, successfully for one term. The following year he was elected in his own township to teach Green Hill school and has since then taught the same school and at Niantic, an adjoining district, for thirty successive terms. In 1891 he was elected Justice of the Peace in and for Douglass township, which office he still holds and fills with honor and ability. Mr. HUBER is a strong advocate for good home government, has filled several offices in his township, but has never before taken an active part in politics outside of his own township.

Mrs. Isabella HEFT, of Norristown, is in great distress for fear that she will be cast into prison for falsifying to the death of her husband, Geo. HEFT, whom she thought she had buried in Montgomery cemetery, Norristown, but who turned up in town Saturday night, not a ghost, but in flesh and flood. HEFT left his wife 18 months ago, leaving her to look after a baby in arms and four other children. He went to live in Philadelphia until last spring, when he left and no tidings were received from him until Thomas FOLEY, a friend, told Mrs. HEFT that a man who resembled her husband had been fished from the Delaware in Philadelphia. Believing that it was her duty to rescue him from a grave in the Potter's field, Mrs. HEFT went to Philadelphia last July, but it was not until after she had made three visits and had as many looks at the corpse that she decided that the dead man was her husband. The difficulty in identification was because the body had been in the water several weeks before it was recovered. The tattoo marks that she looked for on his arm were not discernible, but there were three distinguishing marks - his teeth, his heavy red moustache and his bald head. All these were convincing, not only to her, but to John J. FERRY, an undertaker of Norristown, who had known HEFT in life. The body was accordingly brought to Norristown and interred in Montgomery cemetery. HEFT was insured in the Metropolitan Company, but his insurance had been paid by his wife, and, accordingly, when she certified to his death, $300 was paid to her. Of this she paid $100 to the undertaker and $50 to Justice HARRY, and the remainder she invested in a tombstone, and paid the debts of herself and her dead husband. "I fainted when I heard that my husband had come back to town," said Mrs.HEFT, when seen the next day. "I walked the floor all night and have not eaten a bite, for fear that the insurance company will come on me for the money, which has all been spent and throw me into jail for swearing that the man was my husband." It is said that HEFT had been in the West, and had not heard of his death and burial until he came to town Saturday night.

From a shelf they also took twenty white and fancy vests, and a lot of neckties and half hose. The total loss is over $100. In opening the door a button fastener toppled over, making quite a noise when it landed on the floor, awakening several of the occupants of the second floor, but they imagined that the noise came from the outside and therefore paid no attention to it. This is the first time the store of ALDERFER & Bro. has been robbed since their removal from the Souder building on East Broad street, where, however, their place was visited three times.
