You can effw-tually seal up the side door of burg and saloons on Sunday, but you can't keep the rtopper in the private j'JK- Thev have had pod rainp in many part of the country, but the riort from all parte of our county are that it is very dry." Now that we have got the liquor traffic by the throat, M us have a white crofw WH-iety, and throttle another evil that w alkcth in our inidKt. At the innUnoe of the V. CL T. V. of WatJiinirton the President hat requested tliat no liquor be sold on the National drill grounds during this week. Tim profewrfed fear of a water famine, i all stuff and nonsense. Some inexperi enced people have queer' idea of what amount it requires to quench thirst. There mas much fry and little wool about the struggle for licenses last week. If the court knows itself, and it thinks it does, it is fornenst in granting licenses. Sbkator Cooper estimates that the High License law will yield f 1,500,000 annually to the State Treasury while it w ill put $4,"i00,000 annually into the city and county treasuries. I p free trade is such a delightful and Wneficial thing for the working classes, w hy is it that so many thousands are daily fWing from Kuropean countries w here they enjoy its blessings, to Amer ica where they are sure to have their labor protected ? The Legislature failed to jiass : Sena torial apiwrtionment bill and we will therefore run along under the present ltate of affairs. Our district would have remained as it is in any event, as no on? jirojiosed to disturb our pleasant relations w ith Bedford and Fullon. The work of the Ijcgislature is summar ised as follows : It passed T4 bills, 10(i of which originated in the Senateand 243 in the House. The Governor, had signed, up to date of adjournment 5S bills and vetoed 8, leaving 283 yet to be acted up within the succeeding thirty days. Secretary Fairchiu has issued a call for all the remaining three pvr cent, bonds that are outstanding. The amount yet unredeemed is $19,700,000 which lie lias made payable July 1st There will then lie no other bonds redeemable be ftre 1891, and if the Governnient wants more she will have to go into the pen market and buy them at their premiums. The X. Y. .Sim, a headliglit iu the Dem ocratic party, says : " We are ourselves heartily in favor of running Mr. Cleve land in certain contingencies. If there is to lie a square free trade platform, he should be the candidate by all manner of means; and if the Democratic party is bound to be smashed in the election, he must lie regarded as the only proper standard bearer. It is estimated by some of the experts at Harrisburg, that under the new rev enue bill the one half of the tax on per sonal property to be returned to the coun ties will exceed f 1,000,000, and in the es timate made Sir the separate connties the share to be returned to Somerset County is placed at $4,0i. This we presume is lmsed on the amount collected from mon ies at interest last year. President Clevelasd has settled the protraoted struggle for the Marshalship of the Eastern district of this State by the apjtointment of Hon. Andrew H. Dill, of Union county. Mr. Dill made for him self a most creditable record as aitteuiher of the House, and afterwards of the State Senate. In 187$ he was the candidate of bis party for (ilovernor. Hit appoint ment as Marshal is a creditable one, and in every way unexceptionable. Hi'Moa has had it for some time iast that Mr. Collector Dowlin of this Internal Revenue district was to be removed, and another Ifcnuocrat given the place. This rumor took shape on Saturday last, when l"residential order was issued breaking up this district (the 22d) and consolidat ing part of it with the 1Mb. and 2id dis tricta. This wipes Mr. Dowlin out, and thus the unpleasantness of a removal is avoided. Mr. Boyle and his friends are lieing set down ujxm very heavily by the Administration. .This county is placed in tlie new littburgh district which is to le known as the 2Sd, while Bedford is transferred to the 9th or Lancaster dis trict. Cambria and Blair remain as here tofore in the 23d district. The new Congressional apportionment bill which has been signed by the Gover nor and is therefore the law, is not re ceived with much favor by our I K'liiocrat ic friends, because it gives them but sev en certain districts out of the twenty eight. The Democratic vote in the State lays in groups, forming a few couiniet districts, w hile the large portion of it is so scajtered that it naturally falls into Dem ocratic districts.. Gerrymandering is not the order but an incident of the bill, Philadelphia being so divided as to make an unnatural Democratic district, which will return Mr. Samuel J. Randall to Con gress, while the Democrtic majority of Fayette and Greene is swallowed up by Washington and a jwirtion of Allegheny. Our distrust, Bedford, Blair, Cambria and Somerset remains as it was, but its num lier is changed from Seventeen to Twenty. The " New Revenue Law " as it is styl ed, is not a new law so far as subjects of taxation are concerned, but it is a revis ion of the former law with an attempt to straighten out its kinks and intricacies, and in this, we do not think its framers have proven eminently expert The ma chinery provided for its enforcement is elaborate and cumbersome, and in our judgment, not of the best ; experience will, however, lead to its amendment and simplification. Its principal feature is the taxation of money at interest, in ev ery puastble form. The tax is continued at three milts on the dollar, one-half of which is to be returned to the counties, after it has been covered into the State Treasury, and it is provided under penal ty that this tax shall be paid by the lender, and not by the borrower, thus re ducing the legal rate of interest below six percent. National and private banks and hankem are taxed on their annual net earnings, and all capital ummI in man ufactories is entirely exempted. The only real new feature in the bill is, the reieal of the law taxing furniture, watch en, pleasure carriages and gold and silver ' plate. These taxes have heretofore been largely evaded, and the attempt to col lect tlieru was vexatious and farcical. The wholesale liquor lieense bill ass ed by the Legislature provides that all wholesale dealers, brewers, distillers, rec tifiers, compounders, store-keepers and agents dealing in intoxicating liquors shall pay for each separate establishment or agency in cities of the first, second and thin! class. $W0 ; in all other cities, $300 ; in boroughs, 200; in townships, $100, which sums shall be paid into the Treas ury for thebeaefit of the Commonwealth. Licenses shall be granted only by the Court of Quarter Sessions, and for the present year licenses may be granted un der previous laws at any session fixed by the Court not later than June 30. It is made unlawful for any wholesale dealer, store-keeper or bottler to sell in less quan tities than one quart, and for distillers or brewers to sell in less quantities than one gallon. Bottlers shall pay a license of f 200 in cities of the first, second and third class and f 10(1 in all other cities, boroughs and townships, and they are prohibited from selling liquors to be drunk ujn the premises. One of the last acts of the legislature before its final adjournment, was the passage of the bill compelling school di rectors to keep the schools open at least six months in a year. This bill will prove a hardship in some of the poor and sparsely settled districts of the State, and there was considerable opjwsition to it in the Legislature, but it was sprung in the Senate as an amendment to the general appropriation bill at a very late hour, and its opponents found themselves in the po sition of being compelled to adopt it, or permit the Appropriation bill to fail, which would have locked the wheels of government for want of funds, or requir- ed an extension of the session at large ex pense. The addition of half a million of dollars added the appropriation for schools, will "add just one half to the amount heretofore granted, and in a meas ure will relieve the hardships of the poorer districts. After an all night session the Legisla ture adjourned finally at noon on Thurs day last, the 19th inst. The session last ed one hundred and thirty-six days, and the result show that in the main it was a working legislature. It was more than an ord i narily able body. It was free from scandals, and the usual charges of corrup tion, and its record will comiare most fa vorably with that of any of it predeces sors. It had new and difficult questions to meet and decide, and it evidenced throughout, obedience to popular senti ment, and an earnest desire to meet pul licexjiectation. The Prohibitory Amend ment law, the Revenue bill, the High License law, the Congressional apportion ment, are among the important measures that the jieople demanded and that were most satisfactorily met and disjoined of. Of course there were failures and disai pointinentx, but all measures of vital im portance were generally and well cared for. The most conspicuous failure to meet public expectation, was in the mat ter of an anti- Discrimination bill, upon which a considerable portion of the busi ness community had builded large ex pectant benefits. It may be urged in ex tenuation of this failure however, that, the subject is a many sided and difficult one, that the interests involved are com plicated and adverse, that a wide diver sity of views exist, and that the Inter state commerce law, evolved out of the wisdom of our national law-makers, has been so disappointing, and found to be so difficult in execution, that it may be the part of wisdom to defer action, until ex perience has tested and determined the utility of the measure enacted by the last Congress. As a whole, the work of the Legislature was exceedingly credita ble, and the Republicans of the State have reason to felicitate themselves on its result. Many of the bills passed, are yet in the hands of the Governor and will undergo careful scrutiny before they are signed or disapproved, and of his desire to guard the interest of both the, State and of the people, no citizen of the Com monwealth will entertain a doubt.

END OF THE LEGISLATURE. Winding up the Work After An All Nigtit Saaalon. Hahbimhibo May 19. Both house of the Legislature adjourned sine die at noon today.- The members looked a little tired and haggard after their hard night's work, the Senate having been in onntinuous session until six o'clock this morning and th House an hour later. Both sides then took a rest until ten to finish np the closing ceremonies of the session. The gny costume of the la lies who filled the gallery of the Senate to witnew the closing seems of the session of 1W served to brigthen an otherwise rather cheerless chamber, for Senators, wearied after the long night's work lounged larily at their desks or retired to the cloak room to sleep or rest. pkesiuknt smith's sii.vkr service. In front of the (lerk's desk were placed two larjie boxes containing the silver ser vice to be presented to retiring President pro tern. Smith, and when the litis were rained a number of visitors came forward and admired the contests. The tt, which is of really elegant workmanship and artistic beauty, was manufactured by J. K. Cald well it Co., of Philadelphia. At 10:20 Mr. Huff called the Senate to or der and recogniad Mr. Schnatterly, who, in a happy address, on behalf of his fellow Senators, presented to Senator Smith the silver service and a miniature jeweled gavel. He expressed the sincere regret with which he and his fellows regnrded the ofliciid severance. He complinicnUd the retiring president on the able, acceptable and impar tial manner in which he had discharged the arduous and complicated duties of the chair. Mr. Smith, in a brief, but earnest sjieech relumed his thanks. Senator Smith then took the chair. On motion of Mr. Cooier the Senate pro ceeded to the election of a President pro tern, Mr. Reyburn nominating John C. Grady and Mr. Wolverton John B. Sel heinier. Mr. Grady was declared elected, receiving 30 votes, against 15 for Selheimcr, and was conducted to the chair by Messrs. Selheimer and Keyburn. On taking the chair President Grady made an appropriate speech and the oath of office was adminis tered by Judge Williams. After adopting resolutions thanking the officers and employes of the Senate the Pres ident pro tem. announced the Senate ad journed sine die. Over on the House side there was a dis play of Silverware on the desks in front of the speaker's table when the House met tins morning. A handsome full coffee set of nine jiieees, with an epergne for fruits and flowers, was the gift of the House to Resident Clerk Charles E. Voorheea. A handsome tea set of eight pieces was the gift of the House to Journal Clerk Morrison. Reading Clerk Hului's fondness for diamond was recogniz ed and he was the receiver of a solitaire dia mond ring and a diamond shirt stud. A heavr g'lld watch and chain, with the coat- of-arms of the State engraved on one side of the case and the recipient's name on the other, was added to this sparkling array as the pift of the House to its Chief Clerk, Sam uel A. Losch. THE srKAKKK'g ELRliANT GIFT. Sjieaker Boyer surrendered the gavel to Mr. Graham. The magnificent gift which the House had presented to its jnipular and handsome Speaker could not be displayed; a law library of half a thousand volumes could hardlv be shown witliout embarras- inent, but one volume of the many wa mod eslly shown and typified the whole, and this held an honored place aloiu: aide the glitter ing silver, gold and diamonds. Mr. Burns, on hehulf of tlie Chief Clerk, presented the Sjieaker with a carved ivory gavel with ebony handle. The Sjieaker re- sMnded feelingly. Mr. White, of Huntingdon on behalf of the House, then presented to Chief Clerk lioseh the gold watch alit-ady described, as a testimonial of the teem and ajipreeiation of the House, to which Mr. Losch made a fitting reply. The presentation to Resident Clerk Voor hees was made by Mr. BobertMiu. of Pitts burg ; Mr. Foote made the presentation to Heading Clerk Huhn ; Mr. ChriUinan to .Journal Clerk Morrison, and on behalf of the annronriation committee, Mr. Brown, of Beaver, presented Mr. Dearden with a hand some album, containing pictures of the mem- 1 hers of the committee.

In Collision At Sea. New York, May 22. The steamshijis Celtic and Britannic, which were sighted oil Sandy Hook yesterday, arrived in the harbor to-day, and rejmrted the details of a serious collision at sea, aliout eighty miles off Nan- f tucket, on Thursday afternoon during a dense fog. The Celtic was inward bound and the Britannic was on her way to I.iver- jmxA. Both vessels belong to the White Star line. The Cajitains of both steamshijw were on tlie lookout for other vessels and icelicrgs at tlie time of the collision, the fog being un usually heavy. Tlie Celtic struck the Britanuac on thejxirt side at the mizzen rigging, and only a fi w feet asteru of the after end of the boiler-room. The mizzen ruring, iron work and all, was wrenched from its fastenings, tlie rail was torn from its foundation as far aft as the jig- ger-mast, and the after turtle-back was car- rial into the air and overboard as though it were made or tstelounl. I he blow was a glancing oik-, the jirow of the Celtic striking at less tiian a right angle. As the striking Kteamship glanced along the side it reliound d twice in its course, smashing two small bouts to pieces and bending a heavy iron font' iiump like a piece of tin. As tlie bow struck the jminp it caught a steerage passen per iuse name was not known, crushing him against the iron and cut the body com jiletely in two. A little girl of about 11 years old, named Cubinson.of Fall River, Mass., who was with her mother and brother on lier way to Engtaud, was also crushed by the bow, her fia and breast being sjilit ojirn. Strangled by a Dumbwaiter. Wakhisuto, May 22. Cries of" murder and " jsilioe" from the residence of Senator McPhcrson, on Vermont Avenue, attracted officer Welch to Ihe sjsit almut 1 o'clock this morning. He entered the house through a window, anL proceeding to the rear of the dining-room, found I-otiis Brown, colored, a ith his head taught between the floor and oneot the shelves of the dumbwaiter. The uH'mt extricated the man from his j-riious powtion, but he was so far gone that he lived but about twenty 'minutes. It ajijiears thai Brown, m ho is the Senior's butler, started to take the silver to an ujiper story, when the rojie of tlie dniubwaiter slipped and caught his head. Senator and Mrs. Mcpherson left Washington for New Jersey yesterday, leav ing no one in Ihe house but the servants. Dragged To Death. Fata, Pa., May IS. DennM Crowley, of Harbor Creek, oat ofilm wealth in farmers in Erie county, and a Moled hint fancier, was killed this evening by a runaway Iwtm of blooded Isirmw.

He struggled gamely to free himself, and Ins clothing was nearly all torn off him. when hs wan dashed head foremost agaist a atone, crushiag bis skalL Daring Train Robbery. Sak Aktokio, Tex, May 20. Tlie north bound express train on the Missouri Pacific Railroad, which left this city at 7 o'clock last evening, encountered a gang of train robbers about 10 o'clock, at McNeill station, 13 miles north of Austin. Harry-Laud commercial traveler, who was on the train, arrived here to night. He says that before the train reached McNeill the robbers had secured the station agent and bound him. As the train slowed up at the station the robbers, to the numlier of 12 or 18, fired several vol leys to intimidate asseiigers. Lauda, hear ing the shots, raised his window and looked out, when an order was given him to draw his head back and close the window. Before he had rime to comply he was wounded in the arm and badly powder-burned by a shot fired iu close proximity to 1dm. There was considerable confusion on hoard the train and the passengers lay down oil the floor and crawled under the hunks to escajie (lying bullets. The train was held np for nearly half an hour, after which time it was allow ed to proceed. The door of the express car was forced ojien and about $4,000 taken. The messen gers were comjM'lleil to throw llji their hands and were ordered to hand over the cash and registered letters. 8. R, Sjilauding, the railway postal clerk, told.the robbers he had none, as the day line carried all the register ed letters, and was informed that they did not care for them as they were not after Un cle Sam's money but Jay Gould's. The rob bers were in very good humor, and, after go ing through the exjiress tar, bade a pleasant good night, and decaniied. Some of the men were not masked, hut the one who gave the orders was masked, and was tall and was dressed like a cow lsiy. Express Messenger Nothackcr, . who was ordered to turn over the money, handed the robliers only a small amount and was beaten over the head. A bmkeman was wounded during the fusillade. Postal Clerk Sjilaud ing says he distinctly heard the order given by the leader, "Don't touch any of the pas sengers, and don't shoot any of our own men. The messenger also says that he believes the men were green hands in the business. Two Out of Five Burglars Killed. JtMBsTowx, May 20. Ten days ago a gang of five burglars attacked the house of Fanner Wagner, near Tionesta. The farmer and his son fought desjieratcly and the sou shot and killed one of the burglars in his tracks. Last week another of the theives was found dead in an old deserted coal mine nearby. The three other theives were ar rested three dnys ago and lodged in jail. To-day a tall, sad, weary-looking women arrived by train at Tionesta and inquired if a man by the name of Ilaggerty hud lived there. Upon learning the only person of the name was James Ilaggerty, one of the prisoners in jail ujsin the charge of burglary, tjie jioor woman was overcome. She stated that she was Haggerty's wife; that she had come on here in resionse to a telegram commanding her to come. She sujiposed he was sick and needed her care, so w ith her balie in her arms she had traveled ftmi Hancock County, West Va. She said she was the mother of five children and that she had not seen her husband Sir over a year. Mrs. Ilaggerty said also that her maiden name was Dcjiew, that she had a relative who is a member of the Assembly of West Virginia and is related to Chauncy H. Ie jvw.

There was said to lie considerable loss of lite, but the rejKirts cannot lie verified at jirescut. Lake Liudeu was a town of about 5oil jieojile. many of whom are without shel ter to-night. A Nltro-Glycerine Magazine Des troyed. Pi u th. Minn., May 21. A territic explo sion of nitre-glycerine oecured last evening at Sjiirit lake, eight miles from this city. Eighty -three hundred jsiunds of the exjilo sive was stored in a wooden building 50x.'!0 feet. Where this stood is now a hole looxtiO feet and 15 to 40 feet deej. Thelargint piece of the building found is 10 inches long. A three-inch cast iron pijie was twisted round a tree and bits of iron and wood were found a mile from the sjiot. Every window pane in eight houses within half a mile was brok en, and one house which stood l.Ooo feet away fnuu the storehouse was conilete'y wreck ed. Trees were mowed down like grass. Tivo tramps seen near the building just prior to the cnjilnsion have not been seen since. A woman just recovering from illness was in jured by timber falling across the bed and crushing her ankles. It is Mipxncd the ex plosion was caused by heat from the sun or ftiiiijieriiig by the ti-Hinjis. An Arkansas Lynching. Little Rock, Akk, May 22. Andrew Sjiringer, of Illinois, was lynched last night at Powlmttan, his crime being assault ujkjii Mrs. Montgomery some days ago. The cir cumstances attending the crime were jicetili arly brutal, and tlx! predictions that Judge Lynch would settle the case were freely made. A bund of men numbering thirty or forty surrounded the jail, took the keys from the jailer, burst into Springer's cell and diug ged him out with a rope around his neck. He made a desperate fight for life and ft .e juind two or three men to hold him. He asked the mob to shoot him, hut the .reijucst was refused. He w as dragged a short dis tance from tin-jail and hanged to a tree his 1m sly afterward being riddled with bullets. His victim is rejiorted to he in a jirecarious condition. Enormous Losses By Fire. IsHPKXiSd, Mich.. May 22. Light rain fell at noon, followed shortly by another light shower, and the forest fires are damjicncd, but not extinguished. Immediate danger is jiassed for a few days, but unless still heavier shower come down, the fires will be nearly as bad as before. It is impossible to catalo gue the losses. Nearly every large owner of pine land suffers heavily. There are no new devclojmients in the Ijike Linden Are matter. The lieoj'lc being provided with shelter, food and garments, no gnt suffering will ensue. The losses in the upjicr peninsula of Michigan, and north tier countii of Wisconsin, since May 1, by tor nadoes, forest fires and the burning tif Iwike Unden are estimatid at $4,000.(mo to $)i,0U0, lam.

A serious phase in the coke strike wa developed this morn ing, when a mob of three hundred miners, marching in a body, and generally armed with bludgeons, suddenly appeared at the coke yanl at the Jimtown works of Colonel Schoonmaker. Without wanting they made a savage at tack on a little knot of men who were en gaged iu drawing out the coko from ' the ovens there. . This coke has been iu the ovens since the strike commented and some eight or ten men had been engaged to draw it out. While so engaged this mob suddenly rushed in on them and brutally attacked them. Such of the laliorers as could not escajie were cruelly btatuti, and one man having both arms' bro ken and being so badly kicked that his life is dr.saired of. Six men altogether were beaten very severely. All the barrows and tools used in the works were destroyed by the mob. A RAIP OK CWHBAS'S WOKKS. j Having effectnally accomplished their mis sion at Jimtown, the rioters marched through Bawson and across the Youghoigheny river to the works of James Cochran & Sons. Mr. Cochran's sons, assisted by some non union men, had watered out the ovens of this firm and drawn the coke from a few ov-f-ns, and the auger of the mob was directed against them. Fortunately the hour was early and no one was yet working on Osdi ran's yards at Nellie and Clarissa, but the mob, in absence of human victims, wreaked their vengeam-e ujsm the coke-wagons and tools at those works, destroying all such movable jimjierty they could luy hands on. After this they scattered, their work being accomplished, and at this hour are straggling off to their homes though a large num'ner are still congregated in the neighborhood of Cochran's works.

He is an old soldier, a man of nerve and will wear no kid gloves in doling with the cratures guilty of such develish work this morning. The mob was from Wheeler, Trotter and I-eisenring, and was coinjiosed cheifly of Hungarians and negroes. The action of this morning, it is said, was decidisl upon in an open meeting of the men held yesterday af ternoon at the Trotter works. Great indig nation is cxjireHscd by all good citizens at the. 'outrageous work, and the Sheriff will have no ililliculty in getting aid to suppress such deed and arrest Ihe actors engaged in them. THE CAUSE OF THE BIOT. The cause of the attack on the men is one that cannot fail to bring them sympathy. There are lo.um ovens with 35,0u0 tons of coke in- them, which is being' destroyed. This coke is worth $.)2.0Ml at the ovens. The miners have been aid for mining coke, the haulers have got their money, and the men who filled the ovens and fixed them for firing have all received their Jiy. Now the strikers rufuse to allow this coke to lie saved. At the Jimtown works there was no attempt to market the coke. The lalnirers were em ployed merely to draw out the coke and to load it on side-tracked cars. There was no attempt to start uji the works with new men nor was anything done to arouse the bad feelings of the strikers with the exccjrtioii of this jieaccful attempt to save jiroperty. In order to avoid conflict and riots even the jiumjiers were not rejtla-ed by the ojierators. They could have protected the jmmp wor kers with deputy sheriffs, or even with troojis, but they did nothing of the kind. The men who had returned to work at Jim town did so of theirjown accord, and it was not sujijiosed there was any danger. At oth er works the strikers have refused to allow the office employe and such other menus were willing to work, to save the coke from destruction. This arbitrary action has done much to injure Mullen & Byrne in the opin ion of the community. There is something signitii'ant iu the fact that the Hungarians are very obedient to tlieir leaders, and these leaders axe under the guidance of the English-speaking officials of ihe organization. It looks as if the Hungarians were used to pull chestnuts out of the fire. Millions Lost. Detroit, May 20. A Manjuette sjiecial says: The tires are still burning in all. direc tions.
