LOCAL AND PERSONAL
To OoBBESPONDirTB. "Jalia" was too
laU for tbis week, but will see herself in
print next week. Our fair friend "L. P. K."
hall also have a corner in next week' Fret

correct. Hi enigma shall find a place in our
next issue too late for thin one.
Beief Mektiox. Four more young men,
tesideuts of Cambria township, were placed
under bonds, before Esq. Kinkead, on Mon
day last, for their appearance at Curt to
answer fT maltreating Mr. George Gurley.
of this place, on the day of the October elec
tion. A gay and festive youth who rusti
cates not many miles from this place, was
before Eq. Kinkead, on Saturday evening
last charged on oath of a fair "danisiel,"
who had "loved not wisely but too well,"
with a certain offence which it is needless to
tell. lie gave bail for bis appearance at
Court. John Noble and David Bee were
seriously injured in one of the Cambria Iron
Co.'s mines, at Johjstown.on Saturday last,
by the premature explosion of a blast. One
side of Mr. Noble's face was blown entirely
off, and his death was looked for as certain
at last accounts. Mr. Bee will doubtless
recover. They are both men of families, and
we believe brothers-in law. Daniel Mc
Laughlin, an employee of the Cambria Iron
Co.. had one of his feet badly crushed, a few
days since, by a heavy piece of metal which
fe'.l upon it while unloading a cart at the
blast furnaces, near Johiutown. -A nun
named Lake was considerably injured, on
Saturday evening last, by the caving in upou
him of a cellar which he was engaged in ex
cavating in Woodvale, adjoining Johnstown.
A young man named C. Ii. Gavitt, rep
resenting Lim.-elf as agent for a hoop skirt
Louse in .Philadelphia, presented a forged
draft for fifty dollars on his alleged employ
er, at the First National Bank, Johnstown,
co Thursday last, and received the money
for it. The enshier afterward telegraphed
to Philadelphia and learning that Gavitt
was a 'fraud." forthwith called on that
yrtitluman and made him disgorge, which he
did after borrowing seven dollars from two
tXher parties to make up the amount. He
thtn vft for parts ut.known. The n;ee-
vric shower, on Friday night and Saturda3'
iLorning last, is said by those who witnessed
it hereawaj-8 to have been exceedingly grand
and brilliant, at the Washington Naval Ob-kerv-t
rv some twenty-five hundred meteors
r hour for five hours is said to have been
observed. Since the coul dealers have
been n quired to weigh all the coal they sell
i 4ir citizens, it is said they have raided
the price of bituminous coal to $3 per ton,
or 20 cents per bushel, which is certainly a
most exhorbitaut price. It has been sug
gested that containers should either club to
gether and buy their coal by the car load, or
vine petition our borough council to buy a
large quantity of coal and supply it at just
wLat it cotts say 13 or 1-1 rents per bushel
fur Westmoreland coal, delivered at the buy
ers house. NS'e don't know anything about
Hie feasibility of the latter plan, but we
tnitik that some action is demanded in the
matter. Tho Johnstown Tribune, in a
li-ugthy article, favors the election of Hon.
John Scott, of Huntingdon, as United States
Senator. He is certainly competent for and
worthy of the position, and has the prestige
of having at one time been a Democrat
which may also be said of nearly all the
leading men in the Republican ranks.
William Drum, indicted at Greensbtirg for
the killing ot David Mohegau, several
month ince, was, or. Saturday last, foim I
guilty of muider in the second degree. A
motion was made by defendant's couti.-el fr
a new itial and arrest of judgment Wild
&uie, and especially wild turke s, are said
to be unusually plentiful In Bedford county
Just now. A son of Daniel Bayers, ol
8outh Wnodherry township, Bedford county,
was killed by being caught in the tumbling
shaft of a threshing machine, on the 80th
ult. Bishop Domenec lectured in Altoona.
on Monday night, for the bent fit of the
Catholic schools in that place. An old
man named Israel Thomas was run over by
Mail train west, near Tyrone station, on the
6th Inst., and had both legs crushed below
tb knee. His legs have since been amputa
ted, and will probably live. The barn of
Joseph Fisher, in Cumberland Valley town
ship. Bedford county, was destroyed by fire
on Sunday evening week. The building was
a new one, and was filled with Mr. F.'s
summer crop. The fire was the work of an
Incendiary. Andrew Horn, of St. Clair
townnhip, Bedford county, walked out of
church few daj-s since, and fell dead before
any of his friends reached him. John Bow
rs, of Napier township, same county, was
found dead in his bed on Saturday morning
week. Next Thursday will be Thanks
giving day, and as yet not a turkey has
found its way to our premises. Don't some
lady ile aire the honor of presenting the prin
ter with a gobbler for his thanksgiving din
ner Elizabeth, N. J., the home of Fath
er Lemke, experienced four distinct shocks
f earthquake on Sunday night last, chairs,
tables, beds, etc., swayed to and fro. but no
damage was done. Mr. R. R Thomas
has received the appointment of weigh-mas-ter
from our borough authorities. a pas
senger traiw of six cars ran from Tittsburg
to Altoona, a few days since, in three hours
aud forty minutes. Joseph Z ln6r, watch
maker and jeweller, has opeued out opposite
our office, and solicits work in his line. Joe
is a tip-top mechanic, and as he means bus
iness in earnest we hope he will get plenty
to do. -James E. McGough. of Clearfield
township, lost his pocket-book containing
about 4100 in money and $300 in valuable
pipers, oo Thursday last, while crossing
Clearfield Creek. On Saturday the pocket
book was found, but there was only 45 of
the money in it. Mr. J. P. Douahoe, of
tit. Augustine, cut one of his feet very se
verely by making a mis-stroke with an axe
while chopping wood, a few days ago.
Thomas Campbell, son of the editor of the
Altoona Vindicator, bad one of his fingers
taken off by the cog-wheels of a job press,
one day last week.
Thb Costinbstai. Vocalists. This cel
ebrated troupe gave the Ebensburgers a
concert on Saturday night and another on
Monday night. On both occasions a large
and appreciative audience greeted the per
formers, and all were delightfully entertained
and greatly gratified. One feature, not more
commendable than rare, was the absence of
anytWng approaching the vulgar or irrever
ent in the whole programme. We trust the
Continentals will not forget to visit as again
at as early day.
Social Pabtt. The De Lemke Associa
iion wtU have its anniversary celebration on
the 20 tb of the present month, at the hall of
Mr. Blum, in Carrolltown. The amplest
arrangements will be made to have such an
entertainment as will do justice to the good
Father Henry as well as to his friends and
admirers in Carrolltown and neighborhood.
A cordial Invitation i extended to all per
font insbtog to eajey a pleasant reunion.
Fathsb Lf.kki A ladv correspondent
has written us for one or more copies of the
Freeman, dated April 26th, 1867, contain
ing the following brief notice of that vener
able prelate and estimable man, Rer. Peter
Henry Lemke. and as we are not able to
comply with the request, we have deemed
it best to reproduce the article from our
files, trusting that those of our readers who
have already perused it will not begrudge
the epace it occupies :
Tna Lkmck Association. The citizens of
Carrolltown have organized themselves into an
Association with the above title. For its ob
jects we refer to the correspondence of "1 ago,"
who, we believe, is an officer of the Society.
The Association has doue the editor ot the
FasEMA.t the honor of electing him an honor
arv member. We do not now purpose to dwell
upon the aims and purposes of this Society, but
we do purpose of speaking a few words of the
venerable man whose name has been adopted
by the Association.
Pnu Hknbt Llsie, after serving many
jears with distinction in the wars that desola
ted Germany, left the army, and turning his at
tention to theology, was some time after admit
ted into the Catholic church, and subsequently
received the order of priesthood. After labor
ing awhile in his vocation near his old home,
he emigrated to the United States, and his ad
vent into Cambria county was about the year
1834.
In 140 there was no Catholic church In
Cambria county north of Ebensburg and Lo
retto, except a small log building known as St.
Joseph's some two miles north-west of Carroll
town. About this time Rev. Mr. Lemke took
up his residence at what is now the old monas
tery building, on the west side of Carrolltown.
Here he commenced his labors, at d continued
them until that infant settlement became the
largest congregation in Cambria county.
The writer of this article remembers well be
ing on the spot where Carrolltown now stands
in the summer of 1839. At that time the whole
settlement whs known as "Hart's Sleeping
Place," from the fact that Jacob Hart, an old
German who traded with the Indians, had built
a hut iu this locality, where he slept in his
journeyings along the Kittanniug Path from
the eastern settlements to those west of the Al
legheny mountains. More recently, however,
the neighborhood ot Hart's cabin began to be
designated as the Weakland Settlement,"
while some three miles distant the "clearing"
that was opened was known as the "Luther
Settlement."
Carrolltown is between these settlements,
aud at the period we reier to was mostly vi.-giu
forest. A small opening had been made and a
cabin built by Mr. John Campbell, whose suc
cessor iu its occupancy Father Lemke became.
Now, when the venerable priest visits tl e scene
of his former labors, he finds a borough num
bering some 5 .0 inhabitant. fine nod tasteful
dwellings, good hotel, thriving merchants and
artiz.-ius, aud a church among the very largest
in Western Pennsylvania, surrounded bv us in
dustrious nnd thriving an agricultural popula
tion as can be found in the State. And all this
population, industry and wialth is mainly owing
to the energy and zeal of one man, aud that
man Rev P. H. Lemke
We shall not dwell upon the cler'cal labors,
the privations, the toils ot Father Lemke, as
that is matter for a religious ruther than a no
litical paper But all who read these lines will
agree with us in admiration of the moral worth,
as well as the genial and unceasing flow of
kiuduess and warmth of feeling that character
ized the m in.
Father Lemke now resides at EI:snbeth, N.
J., where he is the centre, as he was here, of a
devoted congregation. Long may he be spared
to them ; and long, long will he be held in
grateful remembrance by his old friends in
I'ainbti.i county, to whom he was a father and
beiiefa.or.
Tho Lemke Association, then, has r.dopted a
worthy name, and we only hope its members
may emulate the virtues and genial charities
which adorned his life and diameter.

Improvement. Mr. George ITuntley has
hail a new roof put upon the rear portion of
his extensive store room, and under the roof
be has now one of the most complete assort
ments of goods in his line that is kept by
any dealer in the county. It is the height of
folly for any person to hope to do better any
where in the purchase of a cooking or heat
ing stove, hardware, cutlery, groceries, and
hundreds of other things, than they can do
with Mr. Huntley. He buys right and sells
right, and is therefore the right man to deal
with. Let him have your custom.
D.iIno Weix We are pleased to learn
that Mr. A. U. Filler has mot with very grat
ifying encouragement since opening his res
taurant in the Cambria House building. He
commenced by reducing the price of oysters
and furnishing the largest and most luscious
ever served np in this place, and it is not
strange that he should prosper. Oysters,
pig's feet, tripe, hot coffee, etc., is now his
bill of fare. He pays the highest price in
cash for pig's feet.

Mr. Editor You asked me for soToe local.
Well, our local is all general this week, ex
cept the laying of the corner stone of the
German Catholic cbtifch. The day was fine
and the big stcne was put down in fine order.
It took about five thousand persona to lay it.
No doubt some one else will rend you a full
description of the ceremony.
John II is not pleased about the
"Grecian Bend." I blame that on Mac
Shane, though he thinks it was the other
Mar. John is a clever fellow, and as he
never gets on a bender, we would say "hancs
oph."
It is thought now that "Nasby" was mis
taken about his "Ban lie"' crowing to "Vote
for Seymour and BIair,? and that the real
meaning of the crow is, "Join the Salt River
Crew!" At any rate, "crow" In the past
tense, would be some kind of a "crew," but
as it came from a rooster, the whole thing
may have been a roos.
I wrote over on the other side, which is no
relation to Anthony Over, but merely to let
you know that you should read my letter on,
just like you do a book, till you come to
"The End."

preachers that illuminated the other night
thought that the judgment b.d come. They
judged crmscienciously. One of the mors in

the planets, but Jupiter, had fallen. The
matter was referred to one of the Elders,
who said that there was no danger, as it was
only a heavenly hallucination.
I heard of another accident, resulting in
death, at the Company's coal mines, on last
Saturday night. Our mutual friend, Frank
Maloy. escaped a cruel death near Cone
maugh station. The reason there has been
so many fatal aocidents this summer, in this
vicinity, is because we have such an efficient
Coroner.

Tali. Jcmpinq The man in the moon
can jump two hundred and sixty-four feet
high. The diameter of the mom is only
2000 mi:cs, whereas that of the earth is 8000
miles ; consequently the attraction of the
moon is sixty-four times less than that of
the earth The earth's attraction is creatly
augmented by the fact that Frank W. Hay
has filled up every corner of the country
with stoves heavy stoves, parlor stoves,
cook stoves, fancy stores, at such low prices
that everybody jumps at them.

Welcome. The gladsome days of Indian
summer are now with us, and although their
stay will be but brief, it will be sufficiently
araplo to enable everybody to visit the cele
brated cheap store of J. Patton Thompson,

make such selections from his extensive and
magnificent stock as their wants demand.
Astonishing It is said to be astonishing
how the children at our public schools do
learn from the books they buy at C. T.
Robert' clock, watch, jewelry, book and
variety store. Remember that he keeps all
kinds of books used in the schools of this
county, and sells them just as cheap as the
publishers thenu-elves offer them at retail.
Shooting Stabs. Thers was a shower of
meteors on the night of the 13th inst., as
was anticipated. They fell from South to
Notth. Th;s strange phenomenon was oc
c s:onl, no doubt ; by the great rush to the
Star Clothing Slore of James J. Murphy,

prices fell with the stars.
