Views Expressed Around th Storw Stove. The one absorbing topic of cocvensvtioa around tbe warm shop fires these nights, is w anther or not the voter of this borocgn will authorize the town authorities to bond the Dacicitali:y for the purpose of intra' dating a system of water supply. Some of tbe theories evoieed are refnarkabie, not only for tiieir originality bat tor tbe sincerity with winch the authors irast on their be ing accepted by a majority of the voter. For instance, one of oar most Intelligent and liberal-minded arizen was heard to remark : " I am exceedingly anxious that we should have water supply, if fur no ether reason, than the protection against fire it would insure : I would not introduce it into my house, however, because I hare a well that a.Tords an abundance of excellent water lor my family. I shall not vote 00 the question, because I consider myself in eligible 00 account of my not being a prop erty bolder. I should like to know why I S3 not an eligible voter 7" said prominent merchant' to whom the above view was presented. " I confess I do not own a dollar's worth of real estate, but I nay 10 tbe neighborhood of $3U0 rent, and why can't I enjoy tbe luxury of water r "Well, bow much mare rent da yon want to psyr asked an old fellow aiumr on crack i-r barrel. ota cent. B.nt are too high in this oorooga airea iy, and i uon t believe it is possible for renters to pay more than they are doing at present." " Weil then," retorted the cracker barrel oracle, "you will never have water in your bouse or store. Reuts ia this town only yk-id six per cunt, on the investment, and property owners will not go to the expanse of introducing water pipes into their prop erties unless they get same return for it. Now, let me give you my idea of this ques tion. First, let it be demonstrated that a supply of good water can be introduced Turn- let ds ascertain bow many of tbe iVJ families in town will take water at a fixed pritt and bow much tbe borough can atiord to pay for lire protection. Tuis dooe, we will know bow much money we can expend a 'id will be in suape to receive bids from con tractors." "Oa, you are wrong shipped altogether," aid the fellow stretched ont on toe coal box. as he raised his body and rested it on bis elaow ; "the idea of the election is simply to get aa expression from the people as to waetber or not they are in favor of having a water supply. If a majority of tbe voters so decide, thea the practicability of tbe pres- eut scheme wul be investigated, and if it is found impracticable anotner one will be submitted, until we find the very best and cheapest means of securing a bountiful sup ply for household purposes and fire protec tion." Weil, tha'." news to me," said the ragged- whiskered man on the three-legged stool, aa be emptied a mouthful of tobacco juice on tbe stove. I thought, and I think yet, that if the question shall carry tbe bonds will be negotiated within o" days from tbe day of election, and about two-thirds of tbe pro ceeds will be expended in prelim'niry work ; and when tbe unit finally arrives fa. ldiug the contracts we will have to i?sue more bonds." " 1 am for water," said the young man ilh a business air, who had dropped in to make a purchase, 00 matter what it costs. It is tbe young men wbo will have to jay for it in toe end, and we must certain!)- move at a faster pace than our (a Liers have, or the business of this town wul dry op entirely. Towns all around us are rogreasing. and I don't th..ik it right that taey should outstrip us through lack of ener gy on our part, me most otter some induce ment to people to locate here, and I don't know of anything better to offer than water. shall vote for it, if mine is tbe only vote coat for it." As soon sa the above speaker had d. sap- pea red, the man with drawl slowly un crossed bis legs, and said: "That fellow don t know w rial's good for him. Suppose water is brought into thi town, the interest on the bonds will just double tbe present rate of taxation, and then if the property wner puts water into his house he will have to pay for every drop of water he uses, which mean that bia taxation will be treb led. Then, again, not one half of the farni- ,es in town will have tbe water at any price, bat their borough taxes will be doub led anyhow, and all the benefit they will secure will be tbe protection against fire the water works will arTord, and as I understand it, the " Kimberly run" scheme will only furnish sutScient pressure to throw two small streams of Wiler at one time. Talk about offering inducements to people to locate here 1 I am not against tbe town, but it is absurd to suppose that any manu factory will locale on a little branch railroad. away up here in the mountains. We must look these fact in the face, if they are un comfortable to contemplate." Weil," said the tail man, who had ap parently been asleep on a nail keg in tbe corner, you ieUows likely minx 1 m lor water because I belong to a certain religious denomination, bnt I'm for it for purely sani tary reason. X think by economizing a little every family in town can afford to en joy the luxury of water in their homes, and with all of the comforts and benefits that j will follow its introduction tbey will never regret it." I " My idea." said the bow-legged man, " is to have a town meeting called for Saturday before the election, when the property own ers, who, all mast confess, have tbe greatest interest in tbe question, can be heard. I am free to confess I don't know how I shall vote on this question. 1 want to vote lor uie bt interests of tbe town, but I do not want to slioulder debt 00 say neighbor that be not pay or does not want to pay. Tbe question that I would like to hear discussed is, wiU tbe proposed works be self-sustaining r 0. pshaw !" said the red-cheeked young man, who lust came tn ; a town meeting on id accomplish nothing more than to pas a lew resolutions. 1 just came irom t lie Somerset House, where I had a conver sation with Mr. Chas. King, the gentleman who has been drilling wells for farmer throughout the county. He says that he will enter into contract to supply this town with all the water it may require for a sum not exedin $1 V"- He proposes to drill at least five wells on the Tayman hill and to pump the water into reservoir with wind mills. This I consider the only prac ticable solution of the water supply ques tion." " Water work will never be put into Som erset," said the sawed -off man. until it is piped from Laurel Hill creek, and I believe it can be piped in from there at as little cost as from Kimberly run. That a the best water in tbe county, and would furnish an iaexbaustible supply, but I believe I shall vote for water, and if the question carries, it will then be time enough to seek the best and cheapest mean of securing it." Weil, gentlemen," said tbe cracker bar rel man, before saying good night, let me that if yon bond this borough for tbe pur pose of supplying water as tbe present plan proposes, yoar children, who will have tbe burden of taxation entailed on them, will not rise op and call you blessed." Them's my sentiment's,' said a well known mechanic. "I have traveled exten sively throughout this country, and have witnessed the failure of many town larger than Somerset, all because they asanmed a greater debt than tbey couid afford to pay The people wbo expect to offer water works as an inducement to locate here, will find out when too late, the mistake tbey have made. You can't induce people to locate in a town where they will be taxed to dssuh. It will be Car easier matter to drive people awsy from this town than to attract them to it." " I accept the engineer's est i mates," suid the dry goods man. "The people of this town can enjoy nearly every other luxury in tbeir J homes, and as a matter of coarse tbey can ' arTord to pay fcr water at the cost propos ed. I favor tbe question on account of the fire protection it will give the town." The above are only a few of the hundreds of suggestions made and theories advanced. Several parties have made poll of tbe voters of tbe borough and cla:ra that the question will carry beyond a doubt Oi'uers claim that water will be snowed u.xier two to one; while tbe unprejudiced c.'uira taat the perrfot measure will be endorsed by small majority, and that after thi step baa been taken, time enough will remain to de termine whether or not the tax payers can bear the expense of tbe proposed works, or whi ther some cheaper method of supplying tbe town with a water supply should be adopted. Monday's Storm. A wind and rain storm socb as passed over this place shortly before noon Monday would be termed a cyclone in the West. Tbe wind had been blowing from tbe east all morning, when suddenly it whipped around and blew a gale from the southwest. Great black cloods were driven to and fro between the mountains, and for an in terval of half an hour it became almost as dark as night. Rain and snow mingled to gether beat upon the earth in torrents, while two or three sharp peals of thunder and flashes of lightning, together with the awful rour and crack of the wind among the trees, encouraged the belief that "Kingdom come" at last. All agree that no such storm ever before visited these parts. When the storm was al his heigUlh the tin roof on the long rear wing of the Som erset House was rolled up and hurled into the yard forty feet distant. It was followed by the board sheeting, rafters and brick, from the chimney tops. Nothing cat left but the brick wails. Tbe roof on the front of the building was raised four or five inches out of position. It will require an expenditure of four or five hnndrrd dollars to repair the damage done to the building. In all parts of town fences were blown down and stables and sheds were raised from their foundations. Peter Heffley, of the Highland Stock Farm, informs us that a strip ten feel broad and sixty feet long was torn from the re of of his new barn. The strange thin- about it is that the damage was done to the side of the roof which was apparently sheltered from the wind. Mr. HetSey was in the barn during tbe storm, and be says that the terror of tbe horses was pitiful to witness. A portion of the slate roof of Mr Hefriey's summer house was also blown off, and the smoke-house of his firmer. George Auman , was carried at least forty feet from it foun dation, where it was upset and the wind scattered a tuhful of newly made sausaire over a ten acre field. Several of Mr. Hef fley 's employes were husking corn in s field and when the storm came up they sought shelter from the rain in a large shock. Im agine their surprise on finding themselves j lodged in feix'e corners at the other end of I the field a few minutes af erward, the wind having picked up the shocks and carrud them that distance. Wherever we have been able to bear frjm in the township great damage wa done to orchards and fences, hundreds of trees hav ing been uprooted and rails scattered around indiscriminatelv.

The trial of John Dim for the murder of Jack Carbon in Everett, which was taken up in the Bedford Court, before Judge Bier, on Tuesday of last week, ended Thursday with a verdict of guilty in the fi rst degree. The jury was oat two hours sad a-half. The murderer received the verdict wilh stolid in difference. Tbe defendant's plea was that of drunk enness and momentary passion. Evidence in his behalf was orTered. showing thst be was on tbe verge of delirium tremens the day be committed tbe deed.

A dispatch from Erie, Ps, to a Pittsburgh paper, Saturday, says: "A Pittsburgh train to day brought to Erie a young farmer from Somerset coon ty, wbo was en route to bis home near Ogdensburg, N". whence be had been stolen by gypsies when a child ' years of age. Theyoang roan, now 22, was secured in the way of a trade from a baud of gypsies whose dtsire to part with bim was prompted by tbe fact that he was sickly. He was adopted by George M. Nicholas, a farmer in Somerset county, and the story of his romantic adoption was published a few years ago in the Eimirs papers, a copy of hich fell into the bands ot the brother rf the stolen boy. He wss traced to bis moun tain borne, and identified by a birthmark and an injury whicb be bad received when a small child. The parents of the stolen boy are Mr. and Mrs. John Sapphire, fad they still live on the old farm from which be was kidnaped." Blanket Your Horse.

Every one knows how he feels wben be is not perfect ly warm and protected from the colds and draughts, and bow apt he is to catch cold. There is no animal which is so susceptible to draughts and chills as your horse. At night when sleeping his blood becomes sluggish and he ia liable to catch cold. In recent years it has become the fixed rule with all owners of good stock to carefully blanket their horses not only wben oat of doors, bat also in the stable. It has been found that horses eat less to keep warm, are kept in betu rtorssitioo, and are more valuable by being blanketed. One of the most essential features which should be looked at when purchasing a horse blanket is its strength. Too much credit cannot be given to the manu facturers of the celebrated o-A Hor-w Blank ets, who for years bare insisted upon putting strong blankets upon the market, believing that tbe users of horse biai-ket would ia time feeogaixe the necessity and demand tbe 5-A Horse Blanket. Tbe 3-A Blanket is what yoa want. There are I0O different styles made square for outdoor use and haped for stable use at prices to suit every body. ' Peart Buttons.

AN EDUCATIONAL COLUMN. ar srrr. a. tl bxbulvt. Th County Institute. The UrxaLD has very generously given to tbe reading public a full and interesting ac count of tbe a Annual Institute. Here are 3 few items, howcrer, w bith may jet be added. Atitfiiare of teuhtrt. 273 teachers are employed in the common schools of the county. Of thi number, 217 attended tbe institute; 213 attended the full week; six were present H days; four, 4 days; four. Si days ; one, 3 days ; and three. 2 days. Six were absent. They are, S. G. Coobenour, Allegheny ; W. J. Stevannus, Larimer; L S. Pile, Cpper Tarkeyfoot; Miss AUie Dull, Meversdaie ; Sr. Raphael Miller, New Bal timore; Sr. Barber Yohner, New Balli more. Two of these were detained on ac count of sickness, two because of church regulations, thus leaving but two for whose absence no good reason can be given at this time. The statement made before tbe insti tute was based upon the number of teach ers employed in the county lost year, 27, but an accurate count shows 273 teachers employed in 270 schools. This record of attendance is 23 better than last year, and seven better thaa at any previous session. Rtctipts and EspaulUurt. In answer to many questions, and at the same time to correct some very erroneous calculations, this brief but accurate financial statement is submitted : . KtCFPTS. ai From the Cnonty Treasurer "" b From kveauig tnlerlm-ninraLo 6uo.lO Total njUO F-XPENDITCSEi For Institute Work arid Sojjj,Ues For tvemug Ken-is-..... i.sJ.14 Total. .S;i.t4 Net urj-iu- There is no legal provision made for de fraying tbe expenses of tbe County Institute except turough the appropriation fiom the county treasury. The advantage and pro priety of combining with the institute prop er, a couwe of evening lectures and enter tainments are, therefore quite apparent. By means of this most popular feature, we are enabled not only to bring to our county each year some of the best talent the coun try can afford, but at the same time to great ly strengthen the day-work, and thus give to the institute almost double the value of the maximum appropriation. Ills true, some risk is assumed, but the desire on the part of the educational public to hear good lectures and first class entertainments is not spasmod ic, and it is reasonably safe, therefore to cal culate upon full hou-es for first grade talent at any time, and to provide a full Week's prgmni requiring a corresponding outlay. Only twice :n recent years has there been any considerable deficit. tux Hiotst roarsAm. Nearly every ttacher took home from tie institute, a tine lifl-si:e portrait of Dr. E. E. H.gbee, late Superintendent of Fublic In struction in Pennsylvania. The conditions upon which these portraits were given out are. 1st. Thai they shall be placed in the schoolrooms, there to remain as the prop erty of the sch-iois ; 2nd. That a contribu tion shall be niade by each school receiving a picture, for the benefit of the Higbee Me morial, aa immense monument, erected over the grave of the great lead, r, by the com mon school forces cf the state. It was also suggist-J lhat wherever it can be doue, tbe purtra.t should be suitably framed, as only in this way can it be properly presi rre-i. The amount to be contributed ia left en tirely with the school, aay sum large or small will be received and properly credited. TLe purpose is not so much to raise a sum of money, as to intern! boys aud girls in tbe man wLose iile was an inspiration to ail who knew him, and whose work marked him as an educational leader and master. As a matter, of course, the larger the contri bution tbe more cri-ditab!e to the schooL A good plan by whicb this matter may be properly presented to each school is to bare some special literary exercises, devoting part of the program to tbe story of the life of Dr. Higbee, after which the contribution may be taken. The money thus contributed should be banded to tbe district leader for the section, and a letter or postal card sent to the County Superintendent, informing bim of the amount contributed. The con tributions should ail be taken before Janua ry 1,132, after which the district leaders will make their returns. Due acknowledge ment for each school, except such as desire it otherwise, will be made through the coun ty papers, and the wboie sum contributed by the county will be forwarded to the treas urer of tbe Memorial Committee al Lancas ter, Pa. The fund for framing the portrait should be secured by special collection or contribu tion. Citizens may be invited to join in this good work. the local uinrri, FlrM M-etin-js. Reports from the first meetings of the local institutes are all in and indicate a most encouraging outlook. Of tbe fifteen districts lhat were orgsnizid before the County Institute, the saxmary shows an attendance of Ui teachers, 21 di rectors and over UMJ citi zens. The sections worthy of special mention, are Nus. 2, 4 and 13. in whicb every teacher wai p.-esent. In thirteen sections only 24 teachers were ab" sent. .Ytrt Mrctlwjt All the districts sre now regularly organized, and will hold their next meetings as follows: S-viiun 1 Bfrlm and Brothersvalley. at Berlin.

We bope to have good reports from all these institutes. Let every teacher find the part assigned on tbe program, and come pre pared to make tbe meeting a success. Let directors and citizens help and encourage their teachers by coming out to tbe insti tutes and taking part in the exercises. This work can be and wc believe will be a most important factor in the aJTancem-nt of the schools. tb coc as t or STCOT. ViZ teachers have already secured tbe com plete manual for the course of staiy. and reports indicate that neariy aU tbe schools are being gradually brought into harmony wilh the general plan of grading. The teachers not yet supplied with the manual. caa get copies from the district leaders or from the superintendent. In order that the directors may become properly acqnainted wilh this work, a copy of the complete coarse of study will be placed irt the bands of the secretary of eacfc board. But w are reminded that this education al column is about full, and we therefore stop short. Permit me in conclusion, Mr. Editor, to thank you for your generous in terest in tbe educational affairs of the coun ty, an J for your indulgence in giving us this space.

One of the most t. rrific rain and hail storms witnessed in many years visited this section to-day. Tbe building occupied by C H. Shockry, as a general store, wss partially un roofed and considerable damage was done to numer oca otber bun Jincs : out ouuJings were biown down and trees npiooted. Tbe large barn owntd by Jesse Waiter, was unroofed. Albert Bet l.ey. who resides about three miles north-west from town sustained the greatest damage ; baring bis barn partially unroofed and doors tore fmm their hinge. Tbe fences over almost his entire farm were blown down, and many susrar trees destroy ed. So severe was the storm al that place that trees were broken and twisted off as though tbey were pipe stems. Hi large fbor-borse wagon was lodged on top of the fence in front of hi barn. As Wm. H. Miller, Esq, was driving to town in a road cart, he was over-taken by the storm ; his cart was up-set and his robes were blown into an adjoining field. Tbe 'Squire said that no person knew of the severity of tbe storm unless having been "in Wit." W. II. Barron, general agent for R. R. Koontz. of Berlin, hod the top of bis buggy badly broken. Joseph Smith and H. A. Barn hart, receiv ed not a small share of the rain and haiL They being held at bay, while in the field ploughing. B.H.W.

The best, and mot satisfying explanations of the particular i&sues tbat will be upper most in the campaign of isi2, which have been printed in any national newspaper dur ing Wl, have been tbe writings of Rosweli G. Horr, of Michigan, in Tht .Yew Turt Tri bune. Mr. Horr baa devoted his attention to the Tariff, Reciprocity, Silver Coinage, the Currency and the new prnjucts of the Farm ers' Alliance, and prints several col '1 runs a week abor.t these matters. He has begun at the beginning of every subject and made bia explanations clear, genial, entertaining and perfactly unanswerable. There is testimony that this work by The Tr-bui has greatly aided tbe Republican cause in many Stales already. Mr. Horr will continue to wnte for 7?.f JWiuM during ls2, and men of every party will find in lhat pafc? most admi rable explanations of R-publicaa opinion o the great questions, which now come to the front, with reference to Itni. A mnititude of other special features will characterize Th Tribune tbe coming year. There is a page for eld sold. en. and two for families, and two or three for farmers. Many people of distinguished reputa'ion are writing tor its columns over their own signature" and upon topics of practical value; and tbe edi torials, tetters, reviews, etc.. of F Tnlu-e axe admirable. For a dollar, there ia co paper of a national character U.lter worth the money. A strong point of TW 7V'-e is its purity, accuracy and heij-f ilness in the family. One of its features in I'-' is to be a series of papers on "How to Succeed In Life,' and young people are encouraged to put question to TV T' J"hm, which will be an. swered by Mr. Horr. Tie TrJit is a good paper to bave in addition to your local paper. See prospectus in another column. Mt. Pleasant Institute.
