Since our last issue, the Altoona papers
record the death of four persons from small
pox, three of tne victims having died at the
close of last week, and the fourth on Tuesday
night of the present week. The case last
refeired to was that of Miss Josephine Iloo
rer, aged 23 years. She was a daughter of
Mr. John Hoover, who resides in Elder town
ship, this county, and had been employed as
a domestic in the family of a Mr. Kahn, of
Altoona, for the past three years.
The Crawford Tlouse, in this place, has
for a couple of months past been under the
management of Mr. P. F. Brown, who at
that time succeeded his brother, J. II. Brown,
and like him is keeping the house in good
stvle Visitors to Ebensburg will find satis
factory accommodations at moderate figures
by hanging up their hats with our friend
Brown, who with hie good wife will leave
nothing undone to make their stay pleasant
and their future parnniw certain.
A man named Morgan Berkey, an em
ploye of Messrs. Wet A Dumm md. mer
chants at Bolivar, Westmoreland county,
surprised a burglar in the store of said firm
at an early hour on Sunday morning last, and
was shot and slightly wounded for his pains.
j P. A Creensburg letter to the Pittsburgh
Ditpntch of Tuesday lnt says that Berkey
I was shot through the body, the ball coming
out near the spinal column, and that there
were no hones at that time for bis recovery.
Had it been Coil's will we would have
been glad to dispense with the services of a
certain class of mechanics known as under
takers, but since that was not to be, we have
no hesitation in romniemling Messrs. Lynch
A. Stevens of Altoona, and Messrs. Owens A
I-Iehty, of this place to the patronage of all
! who may be called upon to mourn the death
of anv loved-ones. Both firms are prompt,
reliable and moderate in their charges, and
while we hope that none of our readers will
ever have cause to employ them, we can say
1 in all sincerity that thev deseive to be em
ployed when necessity demands.
, It is a hard matter to realize the magni
tude of one million till a person undertakes
to count it in one-! wo-tliree order. Then,
he is likely to give up the job in dispair anil

of the .Etna Insurance Company, of Hart

I We don't own the house we live in, which
may be more our misfortune than our fault,
but it is a gratification to know that a gener
ous, whole-souled gentleman does own it,
and that gentleman is Geo. F. Hull, Esq., of
Creensburg. Of all the kindnesses shown to
' us since death invaded our household and
made such terrible havoc among our loved
; ones, there have been none to compare in
extent, though all have been prompted by
the same noble. Christian spirit, with the un
expected and iindrs-'rv; d generosity display
ed towards us by t!i worthy gentleman we
I have named. That Cod may bless ami pros-
: per him here and reward him hereafter is the
heartfelt prayer of those whom his noble act
i has placed under deep and never to be-for-
, gotten obligations.
i Four men engaged in hewing timber for
a new barn in Allegheny township, were en-
' gaged on Thursday last in cutting down a
tree, at least one or twe of them were, but
thev hadn't got in much of their work before
a hu ge bear came g'iding down the tree, and
the four men well, they all glided in another
direction iust a fast as their legs could carry
1 them, being evidently impressed with the
idea that trouble; was bruin for them then
' and there. It is needless to say that thu bear
didn't follow them, as he was about as badly
scared as they wore. The came animal was
seen egaln on Saturday last, but as seeing
him didn't hurt him any he was still well and
hearty at latest accounts. Perhaps the four
beroes of the above adventure don't get up
on their resn-tive ears when anybody shouts
"bear" nt them.
Col. Solomon Baer died at his home in
the vicinity of Somerset an Friday last, in
the eighty-ninth vear of his age. H, was
tlie father of Hon. Win. J. Baer, the newly
elected President Judge of the Somerset and
Bedford district, and during his long life
, maintained the reputation of an honest m an
and a good citizen. In his younger diys he
was an enthusiastic military man, and he is
well remembered by some f our citizens as
Brigade Inspector of this military district,
conmosod of Somerset and Cambria counties,
whi h always required his presence here o n
the tenth of May in each year at the "big
muster," as it was called, to review the mili-
, tia. A person who had the good luck to wit
ripm a "big muster." and all that it impli"d.
i under the oi l militia law of tho State, will
riot '( likely ever to forget it.
Miss Jennie Welf.'K whose mysterious
disappearance on Monday night of last, week
from the residence of Mr" E. Zang, in Johns
town, at whose store she was employed, and
who was believed to have gone away with
Win. H. Hoffman, formerly of Johnstown,
; but now of Homestead, Allegheny county,
: and who when he lived ih the former place
was Mis Wei fel's "fellow," all ot which
! was stated in our last i;suo, has very satis
! factorily explained her sudden departure by
writing a letter to her parents, dated Home
stead, informing them that she was married
to Hoffman on the Wednesday After she left
Johnstown in his company, by Bev. Father
B illion, pastor of the Catholic church at
Homestead that she and her husband have
' commenced housekeeping, and that she will
pay them a visit at an early dav.
Froma statement pulushed in a recent
numbt-r of the Johnstown Tribune it appears
that the total cost of building the small-pox
hospital for the admission of patients from
that and the surrounding boroughs, as well
as all th.e expenses pertaining to the same,
from the opening of the hospital on the sec
ond day of last August, until the first day of
the prespnt month, was 52,118. !n. Of this
sum the Cambria Iron Company was assess
ed with the payment of Jl.nr.'.Mn : Johnstown,
f oo.'.fi". - Conemaugh borough, f 227 . M" : Mill
ville, $124 i: : Cambria borough, ?71 l.", and
Wood vale. fU'J.OO. Fifteen persons were ad
mitted to the hospital during the period
above mentioned, two of whom died. The
committee from whose report these facts are
gathered kept no record of deaths from small
pox except those that occurred at the hos
pital. Cambria county can boast of some fa
mous hunters who' are t-ound both in body
and limb, but in tho village of Jack's Cor
ners, in P.ed ford county, if the new-paper
account of him can be relied on, there d wells
a cripple sixty yoars of age who is far ahead
in that business so far as heard from. His
name is Joseph H. Mcllray and for the last
three years he has walked with two staffs.
During that time he has killed in Hopewell
township, in which the village above named
Is situated, the following list of game : Two
hesrs, four wolves, sixty-eight deer, fifty
wild cats, forty foxes, two hundred racoons,
two hundred and fifty-seven wild turkeys
and lots of smaller game of which no account
was kept. The story looks very big. but the
the Altoona Tribune publishes it as the stub
born truth, unaccompanied, however, by an
affidavit.
Xf.w Coal Developments. We under
stand that Messrs. A. T. Pindle, of this coun
ty, and A. Ake and L. P. Work, of Altoona,
have just concluded a lease on royalty of the
coal and other minerals underlying t be lands
' of Messrs. Michael 'and Patrick Bracken,
situate on the main line of the PennsylvaViia
railroad, near Mineral Point, as well as the
coal underlying land owned by Mr. Charles
Wilson, and adjoining the above tract, the
whole containing nearly 4"0 acres. A "drift"
or ''heading" is now being driven into the
coal, for the purpose of testing its quality.
Should this prove satisfactory, as there is lit
tle doubt it will, the work of building an in
cline plane and other necessary improve
ments connected with the mining ami ship
ping of eel will be commenced at an early
day. As a majority, if not all, the gentle
men interested 'are "practical coal operators
and live men, there is no question but what
the business in all its departments will not
onlv be conducted with "kill, energy and ul
timate success, but that it will add another
to the, many similar industries that are rapid
ly developing the vast mineral wealth and
resources of Cambria county.

Philadelphia, Jan. 17, 1882.
Kcstular Correspondence of the Frbhix.
Dear McPike i'our correspondent was
In a bad condition tor writing last week and
consequently omitted his regular weekly let
ter to the Frebhax. The writer had many
things to worry him last week, but especial
ly was he worried over the grievous disap
pointment of the great aesthete, Oscar
Wilde. I felt sad that Mr. Wilde had been
so grievously disappointed in his aticipations
of what he would see and feel while crossing
the ocean. Mr. Wilde expected while cross
ing the great herring pond, that Neptune
would arise like a four-legged water spout
from the sea, sieze the Arazonain his hellish
grasp and fan the face of Venus with her.
JN'eptune, however, never made his appear
ance during the whole passage. As every
true and loyal American citizen should feel,
I was sadly worried that Mr. Wilde should
have been so sadly disappointed in bis search
for that subtle force in nature which is akin
to power as expressed, and first cousin to
truth. To Mr. Wilde the ocean was tame,
and the roaring tempest was a zephyr.
What worried me most was a feitr that Mr.
Wilde, while in his indignant mood, in an
unguarded moment would caue trouble by
demanding of the ocean steamer company a
rebate on his passage money. While Mr.
Wilde's great disappointment is sincerely to
be regretted, ic is also devoutly to be hoped
that be will not despair. When the great
aesthete visits Philadelphia I will try to in
duce him to take, a voyage across the Alle
gheny Mountain. A trip across the moun
tain 1 think would not disappoint but satisfy
him. If Mr. Wilde will take a mountain
passage and seat himself upon th.e back of a
Cambria county mule, and attempt to take
poetic license with its real ribs, be will be
sat isfied with his ocean passage. I had al
most neglected to tell the readers of the
Fkkeman that the great aesthete apostle,
Wr. Wilde, is said to be not a bad looking
man, being as straight as one of the new
electric poles on Chestnut street and looks
ns if built like those rigid highway orna
ments in sections. Mr. Wilde's chin leans
forward about a much as the light does
from the poles. His eyes are blue and of
the kind called "soulful" by the aesthetef.ir
He looks as if lie were one whose angry pa3
tiion, if stirred up from the very base of the
utmost depths ot his .soul, would not hesi
tate to "scratch out one's eyes out." Mr.
Wilde is six feet, three inches in height,
broad shouldered and muscular in propor
tion. I will now embrace the opportunity to
1 A'.. 1 1": 1 j . i ,. :ti

known dead. No less than 103 persons died
during the year, leaving behind nothing to
establish their hlenty. Startling as these
records are, they find a parallel in the num
ber of persons reported during the year to
the police department as missing or having
run away. No fewer than 195 of such cases
are reported.
TIE WOLFE rSDErENDENTS.
Why stand you here idle? lias not for
bearance ceased to be a virtue ? were the
words Mr. Wolfe used to stir np his follow
ers to a sense of their duties at the confer
ence of the Independent Republicans in this
city last week. The enthusiasm of the ad
mirers of this little leader from Union was
intense over this call for a rally tor his stan
dard, and the applause was long continued.
The Independent Convention that will meet
In this city on the 24th of Mav will nominate
a full ticket and adopt a platform upon
which to fight the battle next fall. When
Wolfe and his followers come down upon
the Republican fold the next time, they will
get more wool thad they got the last time.
The conference here was satisfactory in ev
ery respect. The Wolfe party has pfown to
the pretentions of a big Independent Re
publican movement which threatens to en
gulf the Stalwarts.
TROUBLE IN COURT.
Unhappily it seems that of iate days some
of the lawyers of Philadelphia have so far
fallen from grace as to have eiapsed into the
careless and disrespectful habit of address
ing the Court while wearing their overcoats.
It is sincerely to be hoped, to prevent serious
trouble, that these gentlemen of the Phila
delphia bar will be pleased to remove their
overcoats, before cetf ing upon their feet.
Unless they do so the Court will have to per
form the unpleasant duty of roakiag a for
mal objection to the custom. It it hoped
that the Court will not be driven to such an
alternative. il. N. S.

A ORE.VT CHANGE OF FEELINU.
Having received the gratifying intelligence
that the long looked for intensely intense
and soulfuliy soulful high priest of aesthetic
culture and philosophy, Oscar Wilde, had,
after fairly getting oil his "sea legs," become
sufficiently modified to smoke a cigarette.
Oscar Wilde is a cigarette s.m.ker. Howev
er, informal ion previously obtained on the
subject (.f aestheticism ha'd prepared the in
telligent public of New York for this sad
blow. The happy intelligence of Mr. Wilde's
improved condition, with the inspiring news
that President Arthur was happy, and en
joying bimseit in the pleasant official duty of
d istribiting the prizes in the "lottery of as
sassination," and that the Stalwarts were
drawing all the prizes, greatly relieved my
distress of mind and did much to arouse my
drooping spirits. Last week's worryment
of mind has entirely departed, and I am
again in condition to resume the pencil. A
great fear has been taken off my mind, by
the last year stamping old mother Vennor
and grandmother Shipton as false prophets.
I am sort of feeling good, too, over the fact
that the "jury fixer" lias taken a recess from
active operations ; that the ballot-box thieves
are marching to Mo3'amensing, and that their
bossrii are likelj to follow them. It also adds
greatly to my pleasure to learn that Presi
dent Arthur has officially directed that his
coachman shall wear tne livery that Grant's
coachman wore: that Arthur is donning
Grant's 1 i eiy himself, and that the White
House folks, poetically speaking, are in time.
But what exhiiarates'me in a special manner
is the wonderful judicious management ot
the Tax Office by an honored (?) namesake,
Thomas Jefferson Smith, who, on a yearly
salary of 2,."o0, in three years became a
millionaire. Four years ago my honored (?)
namesake, like myself, was pennyless, but
nt the end of tlnee years, on a salary of
.'on 7,.-,oo, UJ wa3 a,e t0 enter a firm into
which he put a cool half million of dollars.
What maiveious arithmetic is he master of?
Where is the Smith who would not ft-el ex
hilerated a: having a namesake possessing
such a mysterious talent?
THE DKMOCUATIC LEADERS FOR 1RS2.
The Republicans have now a candidate in
General Leavet who will make the best of
his great opportunities. Those who assume
that the St il wart Beaver will be easily best
en must be ignorant of his vast advantages.
He is able on the stump with the eloquence
of his war crutches to plead for his success,
and he will be backed by the ablest and
most desperue men and methods ever exhib
ited In a Pennsylvania canvass. He will
have the whole material power of President
Arthur's administration. He will have all
the men in o:hee with any needed percentage
of their ofuual salaries". He will have all
the machinery of the State well tested in the
many despe.ate conflicts of the past, and
will have ail organs with their long well
trMued submission. Such is the enemy the
Democrats will have to fight in November
next. There is not a question of doubt
about the Stalwart leader, as the Republican
masses are rel.eved from all trouble about
their candidal for Governor, as the Stal
wart managers have united on General Bea
ver as the most icceptale of all the Stalwart
aspirants.
The DomoeraU of Pennsylvania already
know what they v ill have to contend against,
and let there be a returd of the wisdom that
ruled in theconcisof their Democratic fath
ers in the nomination of their candidates.
Now, who will bt the Democratic leaders
for m2 to make 'he assault upon the Stal
wart columns ? The selection of the Demo
cratic material for leadership is now the all
important matter Among the circle of
Democratic aspirants for 1S82 the most
prominent is Janie II. Hopkins. The de
velopment of circuinstanees and public sen
timent dictate that he should be the chosen
leader, and the potential Democratic leaders
should exhibit their wisdom by leaving the
question an open one for the development of
ciicumstances and p.iblie sentiment to dic
tate the choice. Tlie-p must not be set up
of any personal candidate as has been done.
There must be no Wal.aeeism or Randallism
in the man nominated as the Denniciatic
candidate for Governor. Any man nomina
ted for individual supremacy will purely be
rejected by the party and the people, but if
a candidate like James II. Hopkins, who
w ill not be set up of any fnction, but be the
representative of the sternly aggressive, hon
est and liberal Democracy of the age, his
election with Congressional and Legislative
delegations will be certain With James II.
Hopkins as a candidate for Governor, and
with Moses Veale as a candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor, the Democrats of Penn
sylvania w ill win a victor that will diseu
thrawl the Commonwealth and ensure hon
est government in the Sttte. The Demo
crats of Pennsylvania have now a grind op
portunity, and let them em irace it. Every
thing now depends on thir candidates.
There are enough honest voters in Pennsvl
vr.nia to overthrow the pr-sent corrupt Re
publican dvnaty, if proper Democrats are
presented for their support.
A BRIGHTER DAT FOR T CNNSTLTANIA.
It is hoped that this year will see the be
ginning of a brighter day for Pennsylvania.
The whole machine of the government of the
State has become rotten. The best Hepub
lieans in the Commonwealth the most com
petent and deserving hae been ignored,
and the money of the State has been used to
punish tiiem and reward the incompetent
and unsdeserving. Such h;s been the condi
tion ot things for upwards of twenty years.
Republicans of courage hae almost "despair
ed of relief, vrA in proper ion as they have
w eakened the desperadoes if the party have
become more arrogant ami cruel. But at
laet brave spirits are begini ing to appear.
The day has come for the ieroes ot tho fu
tuie to show themselves. Tiere is a remedy,
and the tin.e to apply it will soon arrive.
There will lie two "opportunities, that of
Febmary in this city, and ttat of November
in the State. In the meantime let the Dem
ocrats of Cambria be doing iheir duty Let
Cambria not fail to send proper delegates to
the Democratic State Convention. If Penn
sylvania should elect a Democratic Governor
t fi if year, it will settle the ineation in i.sf?4
in favor of the Democratic Iresidential can
didate, Pennsylvania, hiwever, cannot
electa Democratle Governorthis year, witb
such a nominee as Pattisor, of this city,
ex-Speaker Randall, who ha bosied bimse'lf
in the city for several days pst in the inter
est of Mr. Pattison, to the contrary not
withstanding. If nominated, Mr. Pattison
cannot get the Democratic vfte of Philadel
phia by many thousands. Let the Demo
crats in other portions of the State bear this
in mind.

What shall I do with the presents?

And leave those who have gone Uj, j0 heaven

"No," said the mother, "dear Jacob,
To each w send their own part."
(Although my trood head Is the larger.
She always is wiser in heart.);

And prayed that the Ird would impart
