The ceremony was performed by the bride la ther in tbe Reformed church, of which be is pastor, and wss witnessed by a large number of invited guests. Tbe happy young jrmple started on a tour of tbe eastern cities on tlie 4 o'clock train of tbe same day. On their return to Somerset they will occupy their pretty little cottage on Turkeyloot street, which Mr. Ferner recently purchased and furnished. We are in receipt of a k-ngthty communi cation from Jefferson township, signed by son fifty citizens of that and Somerset townships in regard to the Sbauli tragedy. The article reflects vrry severely on the de tective w ho made tbe arrests in the case and sets np a theory in regard to tbe banging and shooting. That many of those who signed the article roust bare done so with out carefully reading it is manifest. For tbe good of all concerned we deem it prudent not to publish the article and we think the writers and signers, upon mature reflection, will conclude that we have acted wisely in the matter. The dense darkness of Monday night offer ed opportunity lor the ity thieves who have been oiCTating about town lor several weeks, and they took advantage of it to ply their nefarions trade. Toe dwellings of Washington Megahan, John W. Pattott and l-vi Rues, were all evtered and a nnmber of articles of value, such as silver-ware, cloth ing and edibles were stolen from each. An attempt was made to enter tbe bouse of Herman Cunningham tbe same night. Mr. Cunningham was awakened about half past twelve by some one endeavoring to raise window in bis bed chamber. In fein-hing tor bis revolver, which bad been removed from its accustomed resting place by his wife, Mr. Cunningham alarmed tlie cowardly rascals wbo took to their he!. This morning lie was able to track two men through bis garden, one of whom bad been in his bare feet. The three bouses entered are all within a stone's throw of Cunning ham' and the same parties evidently did all the jobs. SamoeJ Fox's residence on the bill east of town was entered Monday nigbt and a new suit of ciothes belonging to his son EI . was stolen. All of the thieving thai has been done about town tbe past few weeks has been tbe work of parties well acquainted with tlie bouse robbed and not br stranger to tbe community. With our limited police pro tection there is no safety against tbe visits of these petty tl eives at id we would suggest to the citizens of our town that each bouse be provided with a shot gun, loaded to tlie rouzzle, and that the entire contents be fired, without hesitation, into tlie body of the first rascal wbo sneak into hid borne for tbe par use of steali ng. Tlie seventeen prisoners in tbe county jail have adofited a code of laws fur their govern ment whiie awaiting trial and bavw chosen officers to enforce them. Lewis, the chief of the McClellandtown gang, was elected Judge and was emjiowereJ to aj -point officers ior his court. Tbe first transgression of the rules occurred shortly after tbe two young men were committed charged with having broken into a freight car at Mcyersdale about ten days ago. their being introduced to the Supreme High Pontiff. Lewis, be inform ed Uiera in gravest terras of lb rules that bad been ado4ed and of tbe penalty that would be inflicted on those wbo broke them. Hardly twenty -four hoars bad elapsed from tbe time these young men first passed behind the iron door, before they were detected in helping themselves to tobacco belonging to another inmate. Judge Lewis at once called a jury, directed hi jail-bird Sheriff to bring tbe offender before him. and after iisfeuing to all the evidence, baring first a;jintd a IKstriet Attorney and counsel for tbe accas ed. delivered his charge, directing that a ver dict of guilty be handed in. The jury re turned a Terdict of guilty without leaving tbe box. and Judge Lewis directed the Sher iff and three deputies to take the guilty par ties by tbe arm and legs and bump them twenty time each against tlie bard brick wall of tbe prist m. Tha penalty was at ones in flirted and with sncb sioe as to alarm the watchman on the outside, wbo thought s battering ram bad been seen red by the pris oners and that an attempt was being made to bneak jail. Tbe watchman was on tbe eve of alarming tbe town, of wbat be sup posed wsa s desperate edict on the part of the prisoners to regain their liberty, when tbe sitoation wss explained to him. May Court in Fair May. List of Cases Down on Criminal Calendar. the THE OFFENDERS AND THE OF FENSES CHARGED. Flfty-alx Cases to bs Diaoosod Of. The May terra of court, which will com mence on Monday next, promises to attract a larger nnmber of people to Somerset, and to excite greater interest throughout this and adjoining counties, than any term of court heretofore held in tbe county. The fever of excitement that was engendered by the bra ts! murder of Herman Csbergex on the eight of February 27th last baa never abated, bet Las rather increased day by day as tbe time set for tbe trial of the two men Joseph and David Nicely charged with tbe crime, approaches. The fall details of tbe crime, to-(.'eiher with everything of importance con nected with it that Las since transpired, as well aserenrthing relating to the approach ing trial that has sppeared in tlie Heiuxd, has been eagerly read by it thousands of readers and, not satisfied with this, and the additimal assurance that their favorite week ly chronicler of local ereots will faithfully report tbe proceedings and graphically por tray all the leading sceue of the case, hun dreds of them intend coming to court to witness tbe trial and to hear tbe evidence adduced as it falls from the lips of the wit nesses. Tbe interested witnesses and spec tators in this case will not be confined to persons from Somerset county, but West uoreiand will also furnish her full quota. Tbe trial of tbe infamous McCIeilaodtown gang, for robbing and inhumanly torturing old man Yoder of Elk lick township, will draw a large crowd of witnesses and others from that end of the county, as well ss front Fayette county, in tbe neighborhood where the robbers were arrested and bad their hid ing place. A noth r important case io be tried is that of W. II. Meyer, a widely known physician of MryerstlaJe, wbo was tried and convicted on a cl targe ot abortion at the February ses sions and was promptly granted a new trial by the Court. Tbe case of George J. and David J. Sbau lis, charged with shouting I heir step-mot Iter, is another of the important rases down for trial and one in which igrrat interest is taken. Of the fifty-six criminal cases to be dis posed of twenty -one hsve been carried over from tiriuer courts and the remainder are for crimes and misdemeanors committed since the last regular term. , Among the number are nine coses for fjrnir a ert; eleven for violations of the liquor laws; three for robbery ; two for raj ; one for niarder; one for assault and battery with intent to kill ; two for adultery. The balance are for minor offenses. I Lev. Amos Sell, a Lutheran preacher of some note, stands indicted on three grave charges : Kape, Adultery, and Fornication and Bastardy. The reverend gentleman wiil next week be accorded an opportunity to es tablish his innocence before a jury of his peers. The trial of these causes will be at lendtd with great interest by the rf(e from the northern end of the county, where the defendant formerly ntade his home, snd preached what be failed to practice, if the accusal iot-.s of the fair prosecutrix be true. Tite probabilities are that the two wobks will lie taken up in tbe disposal of criminal cases and thst there will be an imatense crowd in attendance during the entire term. It ia more than likely that the several cases in which new trials were granted wiil be taken up first to be followed by the trial of ess; in which bilis of indictment were found by the last grand jury but were con tinued for one reason or another. If this is done tlie t'mberger murder case will not be called for trial till weil on in the week. Following ia a complete list of the cases down on tbe criminal calendar to this date. Tlow many more will be added between this and Monday it is impossible to foretell : Commonwealth vs. Milton M. Baer; F. Jt B , on information of Rose Fossier.

Eiiiroa I did not intend tocontinue the discussion thst has arisen between Mr. Cover and myself; but, as he denies the cor rectiiess of a just criticism, I will inform bira that no "good authors of rhetoric, and also common sense" admit tbe use of a pro noun that does cot sgrec with its antecedent in ptrton. As Mr. Cover's article is merely a vent of his spleen, and disproves nothing. I will not make a detailed reply, bntwttf point out a few errors in his comjusitioo. He errs by omitting the word fry in the ex prwsion "and also common sense." He errs in bis closing sentence by nsing the expres sion "position sounds." In the same sen tence be errs by nsing tlie expression "logic too-far fetched," without a proper verb eith er expressed or understood. He also errs by omitting a preposition in the expression "Italic too far-fetched for me to waste valua ble time." Much more might be raid, but I do not desire to protract tbe dispute, and will not do so. if Mr. Cover does not attempt to deny, as before, tlie plain (acts of grara- mar. Rcspectfullr. J. C.

(Notwithstanding the advene criticism of some of its stauncbest friends tbe H&suld will con tin tie fo favor lull, fair aud free tiis- c nation of the prohibition amendment ques tion afid will keep its columns open for that purpose to all correspondent who ara wil ling to condense tbeir tbonghts so a to suit them to our space, and to present them sole ly upon the merits of tlie question. It is not an occasion for abuse or invective on either side. Tbe question i with tbe people, and t :i y should settle it deliberately sod temper auly ras sKiaai. sine or rat utrstrios. The campaign that is beiujr so vigorously prosecuted in this county in behalf of the Constitutional Amendment, is doing busi ness nnder false pretenses, in the estimation of a large number of voters. Notably is this the case by telling the people it has no bear ing on politics! matters, being essentially a great moral issue. In view of which one or two pertinent points are poshing themselves to tbe front, as follows: 1. If without any politics! significance and no possible political results, why do cer tain leading Democrats say they will vote for it simply on lite ground of inflicting damage on tlie Republican party. They say if it should carry it will give the Democrats a majority in tbe State at tbe next genera! election. Let tlie Republicans think of this. 2. If it is a great moral issue only, why is it so many moral men men quite equal in mora! character to any who are stumping it for the amendment are arrayed against it? As advocate of what (bey call a great moral question, consistency, if no higher motive, ought to prevent them from altering j falsehoods by saying only drunkards, and ' those favoring intemperance, oppose tbe amendment. They know good so en, moral men. strictly temperance men. will vote j against it, believing that prohibition does ! not prevent tbe evil of intemperance. And yet, claiming to be great mora! lights, these campaigners, not only on week days, but on the Sabbath, and in churches, teil the people all mora! men and all temperance men favor the amendment. Wesre gratified to learn that in some pla ces in the county, some of our gnod cititsens are waking up to the fact that tbe moral idea of the amendment is tlie merest bosb ; and object to political harangues in churches and on the Sabbath. Tbev, also, are disgusted with the extravagant and intemperate speeches that are being indicted upon them, in the name and under the guise of morality, Christianity and temperance. X.X. Tbe managers of the Prohibition campaign do not propose to trust the various County Commissioners or the election officers with the work of distributing the tickets to be voted on June 13. The State has already printed the tickets and supplied them to tlie County Commissioners for distribution among tlie election officers. General Palmer and Horace Gtiger, the Chairman of the State and City Prohibitory Amendment Committees, have arranged to print and dis tribute tl eir own tickets for the reason men tioned. General Palmer will send 2,t.J,' tickets through tlie State. Shortly after the prohibition constitutional amendment resolution bad passed both branches of tlie legislature, it was the opin ion of many weil-informc! ; arsons that the measure would carry by a considerable ma jority in Somerset county, the anient friends of prohibition claiming that the majority would reach 2iX. Whether or not this opinion was well founded cannot lie definitely known ; but certain it is that a great revul sion ot sentiment has taxen place and a de cided reaction has set in. While it is per fectly right and legitimat for those favoring constitutional prohibition to continse their agitation of the question, yet they should bare learned by this time that all temper ance men are not total abstainers; that all total abstainers are not prohibitionists, and that all prohibitionists are not in favor of constitutional prohibition. One leading cause of the reaction in this county has been tlie attempt by some very unwiae prohibi tionists to coerce men into voting sgainst their convictions, by charging them with be- ing the friends and allies of the rum-sellers if they vole according to their convictions. The people of Pennsylvania are not easily bslldozed. and of all tbe voters of the Com monwealth the stalwart voters of Somerset county are the least subject to bulldozing. It is safe to say that if the tactics of the scurvy politician, which bare been adopted by some of the would-be leaders in this movement, are pursued in for tlie remainder of the cam paign, tlie amendment will lie fortunate if it receives 2.U"U votes instead of 2.O0O majority in tbe county. When a speaker, such as the one who addressed an intelligent audience, myself of tlie number, in a school bouse iu Jenner township this week, becomes so intemperate in bis use of language as he did, arrogating to himself all the known virtues and making false accusations against his neighbors, charging them with being im prorly influenced by the use of money and by other disreputable means ; with not being good citizens or good christians, sim ply because on Ibis great moral question their idtas did not coincide with his and they refused to follow bis teachings, he en genders a spirit of resentment among his bearers, and goes a great way toward enlist ing tbe earnest opiition f men to the amendment, who, while maybe not favoring I it, where taking no active part against it. This speaker, Mr. Editor, came from Somer set, and it ia only necessary for hits or oth ers ot bis kind lo make a few more speeches bete to turn Jenner, heretofore the strongest township in lite county for the amendment, against it. Mayli.lvO. ' K. On Saturday evening. May 11. I9, the citizens of Kuhn P. t. and vicinity assem bled tlieraselves together at an amendment meeting in tlie Moore's school house. Jeffer son twp. The meeting was opened by D. W. Mey ers and Wesley Moore. Tbe following officers were then elected : President, Fred h hats lis ; Vice Presidents, Joseph Showman, Milton Rhodes, J. H. W.

Wiil you, for the benew of your readers, please republish that article with the facts herein stated? The srticie referred to can be seen by ref erence to our issue of May 15. EJ.J Fact No. 1. " Persons serving out a sen tence for smaller offenses." Two of these prisoners are two colored men who were guilty of engaging in a riot at Sand Patch, where S P. Sweitzer keep a dis tillery. This S.P.Sweiiacr, at last court was found guilty of selling whiskey without license, snd is now waiting for a delayed senUf.ce. Brown aad were drunk when they raised tiiis riot and it is very probable that they were drank on Sweitzer whiskey. This drunken riot cost the coun ty over Uf.). Fact No. 2. "The Robliers." Tbe Yoder robbers, seven in number, took Mr. Y oiler" a demijohn as well as snoory and meat, proving an appetite for strong drink. Tbe work of one of these men was lo pro vide food and liquor for h.s fellows. Food to strengthen tbe body, liquor to strengtlien tbeir criminal proclivities. Their foul abode called borne wss ucb a the liquor tra.'Sc ia creating all over this land. Fact No. 3- " The two arson eases." Wbo were the accused parties? Are Cum mins, and Kemp; men known to be slaves of drink. Wbo was tbe guilty party? Cum mins a man of noble parentage, but a mas rained by the liquor traffic. A man never grtiilty of crime only when drir.kir.; ; aad yet a man who cost this, eona'y no soiil amount of money. This accounts fur ten criminals nained and the liquor tra'n is accountable for or allied to the crime. Faet No. 4. Why prohlbiiioa dies oat Prohibit." Three distillers, Sweitzer, HooTer and Baugbman were at 11 court found g-Jilty of selling liq tor without license; their een tente is delayed. Drs. Mountain and GilJner were at last court on trial for selling whiskey without license: after Vmg debate the jury said, Not guilty but pay tbe cost." A druggist of Somerset was returned for selling whitkry without license. If I m correctly informed beeacapedby paying costs. Wbst tbe future will bring forth remain to bt seen. One Mr. Bird, who proclaimed. Prohibi tion does not Prohibit, was returned for salt in wbiekey without license. I am inform ed that to tbe lawyer be acknowlcd? iura self guilty and stated that if be was not prosecuted be would promise that prohibi tion would prohibit in bis case. Yes, but bow about cases? Why does not prohibi tion, prohibit? II is not the fault of PrM bitium, but of mea who like Ozone do not wish to prohibit. A. W. Cos he. rst'iitsmox is ea.vsas. Atchisos, May II. This city had a rcifi ciently long trial of prohibition to bring all its leading citizens to one mind, and that is, that such an experiment is decidedly dba trous to business. Thirteen railroads enter Atchison, and from its geographical posi tion it ought to be a distributing centre for Kansas, Southern Nebraska, Colorado and a portion of Missouri as well. It has some Urge wholesale houses, but none of them re port business rushing. While Kansas has been experimenting with prohibition and thereby retarding the growth of her cities, Kansas City and St. Joseph, in Missouri, and Omaha, in Nebraska, have been poshing ahead at an astonishing rite and leaving Atchison and Leavenworth, their old rivals, far in the rear. Atchison has not grown a bit daring the past eight years, since prohibition went into effect, thoug'i it hss improved considerably. Stores which formerly brooght $l.iXv a year rent now stand idle, awaiting a tenant at $. The place has a very quiet, not to say dead look, quite unlike what one expects to find in a well-established western city. Talks with leading men show that they are almost to a man opposed to prohibition, and that thev consider that it has hurt Kansas. views or a nixocsjTti- froh;b:tio3ist. B. P. Waggener, tbe leading lawyer of Atchison and the general counsel for the Missouri Pacific Railroad system, was one of tlie few Democrats who publicly advoca ted prohibition when it was adopted. "I am now convinced that it is a failure," said be in speaking of its effects. "It is im practicable in cities, and bas done a great dead to retard business and immigration. I hear that at Castle Garden tbe agents of otiier States are quick to make known Kan sas prohibition laws to new-comers and in duce them not to come here. Then it builds op a system of spies, of joints and of general by pocriy, all of which are bad for the com munity. "Prohibition in Kansas is really what Las given such a boom to Kansas City, in Mis souri. It drove out of this Slate a great many wholesale dealers and others who wtnt to that city and liegan to bcom it. The result is that it has now gone far be yond any place in Kansas and no city in this State can hope to rival it. Then, too, pro hibition has depreciated val ues here. A good many ieop!e wbo don't believe in such laws but who are orderly and law observing, have moved away, pret-rriDg to go to ot!.er cities where there is co such restriction on their liberty." rr ksocks OCT ivsisess. Ex-Mayor Kelsey, a Republican who has just retired from office, expressed the same views. He is a large furniture dealer. "Pro hibition bas knocked out business. " said he, "and the people of Atchison have no confi dence in its future. The business that was her has gone to Omaha, to Kansas City and St. Joseph, where tney don't have neh law. There is very little now to attract buyers to Atchison when they can do equally as well in oilier cities and bave a much more enjoyable time. I myself would bave gone last spring if it bad not been for the lease ot my store. While it has hurt business, pro hibition has not stepped drunkenness. There is more whUky drinking now than ever, and I think there is more privste drinking bouses. If a man wants liquor he does not have to go to a 'joint " but be can just tele phone across tbe river to East Atchison, in Missouri, and it will be brought to his bouse. " BISI5ES8 UT A5D PEOPLE DEIVE5 AWAY. . Mr. Pride, a large wholesale druggist, who bas done a great deal toward building up Atchison, told the same tale of business li and population driven away by tbe operation of prohibition. "If prohibition were uni versal," said be, "If Congress should make it a law applying to the whole country, it would lie ail right. But when a State Las prohibition and those surronnding it bave high license or some oilier liberal system, the latter catch all the business. It has been so witb Kansas, and it will be so with Penn sylvania if she adopts that poli y. Phihfiel phiawill And that h r business will go to New York, Baltimore and cities in other States, and that she wiil gain nothing. Pro hibition will kill her dead." Mr. Pride is a graduate of the Philadel phia College of Pharmacy and a frequent visitor to the Ea-tt, He understands busi ness o o.litioiis thoroughly and is well pus- nj i to the workings of prohibition in Kan sas. His advice to tlie people of Pennsylva nia is to reject prohibition entirely if thev desire to continue to prosjier and to hold their own in the neverceasing competition of business life.

Ttiat is my experience exactly, F:sk. and that is just exactly what Snyder told me. and I have found out for a certainty that if yoa want a gI suit of ciut'ies for yourself or bcys. or anything ia the carjiet line. Snyder's is the place to get it. I have no doubt, Mtke. some of the other merchants in Somerset would gladly give in a few dollars' worth of stuff if iliev could seli their old clothes that they hsve ha-1 on hand from five lo ten years.
