A Gallant Defender of the Answers the Final Koll Union Call While Visiting ia the West. SEVER SEBEL MIK3IE BALLS FEHE TRATED HIS BOOT AT THE SAME TIE LEFT OH THE FIELD OF aims OHLY TO E CARTED OfF TO LIB37 Pilsail. Was With Grant at Appomattox. The residents of this place, especially the old soldiers, were shocked last Wed' nesday when a dispatch was recived from Waterloo, Io., announcing the death of Tobias Yoder, who bad left Somerset four weeks ago to visit at the home of his son, Grant. Mr. Voder's health had beeu In a precarious condition for a long time, as a result of wounds sustained in the war, and when he was attacked by pneumonia be did not have the physical strength to battle with the disease. Up on the advice of his physlciaus and Pen sion Kxamining Surgeons ha has re frained from hard work for a long time. the physicious believing thai he would drop dead suddouly and when least ex pected. The body was shipped to his home ar riving here, accompanied by his son Grant, on Saturday morning, and at o'clock Sunday afternoon was laid to rest in the Disciple Cemetery. The funeral was attended by all of the old soldiers in Somerset and vicinity, the obsequies be ing conducted under the auspice of R. P. Cummins Post, G. A. R. Rev. Wm Mullundore delivered the funeral ad. dress in which he recited the military record of the deceased. Tobias Voder was born in Shade town ship in 1SJ7 and was past seventy years of age at the time of his death. He was a thoroughly upright, conscientious, chris tian man and was highly esteemed by all who knew bun. lie was an uncompro mising member of the Republicau party and an ardent admirer of President Mc Kiuley. Prior to the election last fall be erected a campaign Hile near his resi deuce from which floated the stars and stripes. The last time he run the (lag up was on the morning or Mckinley s in auguratiou. He is survived by his wife and eleven children, as follows: Henry II., of Brothersvalley township; Mrs. F. B Col born, of Bayard, W. Va.; Jacob, of Columbus, O.; Mrs. John Fisher, of Gar rett; George, of Bayard, W. Va.; Milton, of Somerset township; Mrs. Kmni Bar kett, of Somerset; Grant, of Waterloo, Io.: Francis, of Somerset township; Sus an aud Nina, who are, unmarried and live at homo. Tobias Yoder was one of four brothers. all of whom enlisted in the Union Army at the outbreak of the war. John was killed in the army and Henry died from disease contracted in the service. Moses resides in Stonycreek township. Iu addition to the wounds sustained in the war Mr. Yoder subsequently met with mishaps that would have killed an ordinary man. (:i one occasion he was run over by a band car on the S. .V C. R. R., aud when examined by a phy sician it was found that four or five of his ribs had beeu broken. O.i another occasion a coat mine iu w ni.-ti he was working caved in, killing a dog lying by bis side and requiring Herculbnian ef forts on bis part to romove the slate and earth under which he was embeddeiL The following record of Mr. Voder's military career was compiled for the Waterloo Daily Courier. Tobias Yoder had an army record equaled by few soldiers and survived wounds which not one man iu many thousands could have lived through. Prior to the rebellion be was noted as an athlete and was the champion wrestler of Somerset county. His parents owned a timber farm of over two hundred acres which was cleared in part by the Yoder boys and wielding the ax, together with the rough life of a woodsmati developed the muscles of the sturdy Tobias and fit ted him for the terrible ordeal which destiny had iu store for him. Wheu be was examined for enlistment the sur geon's record shows that his chest meas urement was 42 inches over the bare skin. No more perfect specimen of physical manhood, or braver warrior ever should ered a musket Tobias was 31 years of age when tiie war broke out, and, im bued with the fire of patriotism he enlist ed in the first company raised iu Somer set county, Coinpauy A, KXh Pa., Re serves, which was recruited by General Koontz. His regiment marched under Merid ian's banner in the ill-fated peninsular campaign against Richmond and it was at New Market Cross Uoa.ls, in front of Richmond, on the afternoon of June 30, lsti, that Yoder received wounds which would have instantly killed an ordinary mortal. His coinpauy had beeu in the thick of the fight tor several hours, and was ordered back a short distance to some timber to cleau their guns and re ceive a fresh supply of ammunition. Prior to this the buckle had been shot from Voder's cap, aud a portion of the skirt of his coat bad been carried away by a fragment of shelL A number of the company bad been killed or wounded, but the balance after filling their car tridge boxes went forward again. Mean while the rebels changed position and the brave Pennsylvauians inarch into a veri table death trap. They were subjected lo a cross fire from rebel regiments be longing to Jackson's and Hill's corps and Yoder was the recipient of seven bullets which struck him in "less time than a man could count five" to use his own language. He did not fall but two cont ra les started for the rear with him. The Confederates charged and he told his comrades to lay down and save them selves which they did. Two balls passed through his luugs, one crushing the left shoulder blade, and causing the blood to spurt from his mouth. Two struck him in the side, one lodging under the hip bone and the other close to his spine near his kidneys; these two balls passed through a rubber blanket which he car ried iu a roll diagonally across his waist. which checked their force, otherwise! they would have gone clear through his body and caused speedy death. The other three bullets made bad wounds. The tide of battle passed over him and McClellan's retreat left him in Confeder ate hands. The rebels cared for their own wounded first, occasionally giving Yoder a drink of water from a brook which ran near by and tossing him a corn pone when be asked for something to eat. He lay thus with ut attention or shelter until the afternoon of the third day when a four horse team and large wagon drove up within about twenty fedtof him. Two big, strapping John nies climbed down and asked Yoder if he could get into the wagon without assist ance. "I'm a little stiff," was his reply, "but guess I cau make it if you give me time." He bad raised himself up on one knee but wasn't quite lively enough to suit the fellows. They grasped him by the collar aud legs "and pitched me into the w agon like a hog," said Yoder in re lating the story. "I lauded pretty hard, but it didn't hurt me much and aside from the cords in my left arm drawing up from the broken shoulder blade, I had suffered no inconvenience." He was incarcerated iu Libby prison and refused medical attention by bis captors. Several Union surgeons were in Libby at that lime, but they had no instruments or supplies of any character to dress bis wounds with. The most he feared was that the maggots would get into the wounds which were suppurating. Noticing a hogshead of tobacco on the sidewalk near the apartment in w hich he was confined, be conceived the idea of drawing a supply of this through the win dow by aid of a window stop which he loosened and which had a small nail in one enjl. He managed to secure enough tobbacco to successfully plug up the holes in his body, but the theft was discovered and he was reported by one of the guards. For this "oQV.tso" be was placed iu soli tary confinement in Bella Islo fir l'l days, but would have got a longer sen tence had he not provoked considerable mirth when court-martialed by insisting that he "drew the toliaeeo." After a prison residence of forty days in which he had Isllen away in weight from to" I IH pon u. Is, Yoder was exchanged mid sent to Chester hospital near Philadel phia, where the snrg s ms pronounced bis cise hopeless and told him lint he co:il not live forty-eight hours. Ho did not die, however, and bis case was consider ed so remarkable that the siirgeon-in-chlef of the armies at Washington was made acquainted with some of the facts and experts from the capital city went to Chester where a complete history of the case was taken down, the entrance aud exit of the bullets noted, with the cir cumstances of his capture and subsequent treatment In January, lsivi Yoder was allowed to go to his home in Somerset, where he remained until March when hearing tnat his regiment was in Wash ington recruiting, he went to that place. He asked to go on duty but was refused, but undaunted he went with his company when the regiment started to the front again. He fought at the battle of Gettys burg and when Lis enlistment expired offered bis services, but was told that his wounds would bar him from again enter iug the army. "After I had stripped for examination I kicked up my beels and executed a little dance on my way out of the room to show them how lively I was," said Yoder aud this with his earnest pleading not to be left behind secured his acceptance. He remained in the army until the close of the war and was present at Lee's surrender at Appo mattox. The official records of the rebellion show that Voder's regiment, the 10th Pa., Reserves was roughly handled by the enemy during the 7 -days' battles, from June 2Uth to July 2, le, losiug 1 officer and IK) eulistod men killed, 6 ollicers and 1.T7 enlisted men wounded, I officer and 55 enlisted men captured. After the battle iu which Voder received his wounds he was reported dead, his com rades reporting that they had left him alive, but that with the blood streaming fmiu his mouth aud a dozen holes iu his body he could not live an hour. His wife donned widow's weeds. An application had been made out asking that the pay due him from the govern ment be sent to her, when one day a copy of a Richmond paper containing a list of arrivals at Libby found its way to Som erset and as M rs. Yoder was passing up the street one afternoon, a friend came rushing out of his house with the paper in his baud, but the two words, "mortal ly wounded" which appeared after her husband's name robbed the news of what little cheer it contained, for she supposed that in his condition, iu hostile bauds, he would endure a living death until the real came to his relief. Oue of the strangest features of this re markable man's experience is that he felt no pain whatever during the time that he received the wounds and their subsequent healing, and was able to eat any food that be could socure. He seem ed literally a man devoid of nerves or the sense of feeling. At the time of his death, although 70 years of age, he was bale and hearty, had never lost a tooth aud every tooth iu bis head was as sound as a dollar. The bul let which lodged near his kidneys gave him some trouble a few years ago and be submitted to a surgical examination with a view of having it extracted. The sur geons informed biin that an operation would be attended with great danger so he concluded to carry the memento of 'Hi with auother ounce of lead which lodged a few inches from it to the grave. The brave old soldier has listened to the last reveille and answered the final roll call. It can truly be said that be shed his share of blood in defense of his country's houor and his name is entitled to a high place in the list of the nation's departed heroes.

Aubnema A Dutch Corner Cure. From the Bedford Inquirer. A short time tince I visited in t he coun try at a house where a twiu boy baby five months old was sick of the whooping cough. His little brother twin had lately died of the disease, and he was an emaci ated skeleton, racked by i most distress ing cough, with apparently but a slim prospect of recovery. But whilst there is life there is hope, and bis mother and relatives thought ho might struggle through. Speaking of this hope to a neighboring woman, she said. "No, I do n4 think he can get well; liotli those babies bail the take off ever since they were a month old. The whooping cmgh and the 'lake olP together w ill be loo muck for him." This was a new name to me. I did not want to display my ignor ance and hesitated about making an in quiry of the good woman, but I have done so of others since, and the result is information that is curious and may lie worth narration. It is singular what notions alxiut cur ing diseases have possessed people in all ages of the world. Sixty years ago blood letting was prevalent for numerous ail ments, and immense quantities of calo mel were given. 40 or i0 grains at a dose. Great barm was done by the regularly graduated physicians of tlviso days if wo believe the modern doctors. It is alto gether probablo that the people of that generation would have been Is'tter off if they had had no doctors at all. They killed more than they cured, doctors now say. Perhaps the next generation will say the same thing of the doctors of to-day. Who knows? Tho "take off" is a puny condition ol a young child. Its fo-sl does not nourish it It docs not grow but dwindles away until it looks skeleton like. It is almost !l head, and its faco is almost all eyes. Its little arms and legs are like pipe- stems, and its pinched features are piti able to look at, and the doctor's medi cine has been tried and does it uo good. The doctor says it has dyspepsia, the old women say it has tho "lake off." Well can the "take otr Ik cured? Why certainly it can according to tho country-side lielief. Two or three years or so ago a grandmother brought a small child from C'umts riau.l to Bedford, hired a carriage and took- tho bale six miles out to the Dutch corner to old Mrs. Reighard. The Cumberland doctors bad doue the child no good. Death seemed inevitable ULder their treatment and M rs. Reighard cured the child iu one day n the friends say. How was it done? Well there's no patent on it She heated nd old fashioned brick oven such as used to bo common, and are still here and there in use, just as if she was going to bake bread, aud then greased tho nak ed babe from the crown of its bead to the soles of its feet, inclusive, with lard, and wrapped it in and old blanket and put it in the oven aud closed the oven all the while the old woman mumbled to herself iu Pennsylvania German and made mo tions with her bands, as if she was con juring some evil spirit. She put the child in three times using the oven peel and pushing it far back into the oven p llled it out and put it in three times c'.o.ing the oven door each time, and all the while muttering and motioning with her hands. And then she opened the ilanket and the little fellow lay there as red as a cooked lobster, and they rubbed bim off and put him to bed and gave him warm milk and the next day took him back to Cumberland, and from that hour ha began to mend and soon became 4 healthy child. The proof of the pud ling U the csting of it Nothing succeeds like success. And tho peoplo believe in it, some of them at least It is a Pennsylvania Ger n) in lielief. Aubnema is the name for it. which is translated into the F.ngiish words "lake otr of w hich it is the exact equivalent, and babes are brought miles to the old woman to lt operated on the belief in the eill -acy of bor treatment is widespread. Old Mrs. Rjighird isd;al now, but she has a successor in the same neighborhood to whom sho taught the art With regard to tho succession the belief is, that a woman cau only teach her art to a iu in and a man can only communi cate it to a woman. How much of the virtue lies in the sweating and how much in the words used and the mystic power of the operator does not appear. Medical superstition has been as wide spread as humanity. There is found to the farthest period of history and among all nations down to the present time the idea of supernatural intervention in caus ing and iu curing diseases. Witclicralt was lifinly believed in as a dogma of religion which it was wicked to doubt or deny. I'estileu res and epidem ics were ascribe! t the wrath of God or the m tlice of the devils, which modern science has cboarly dom mstrated were the results of improper m sles of lifo and the violation of the laws of health. Dog matic theology attempted for centuries to thwatt scientific investigation as wicked. But the world has moved steadily on ward and upward. A part from the Dutch words and the mystic three inser tions of the babe, there remains the sweating, and old citizaus of the Dutch, corner by the score will attest the cures, W. M. Hall Bedford.
