Our readers may not lie aware of ihe
fact that at the last session or the legisla

uovernor on June isth. The amendment
maks a marriage license now good in anv
county in the state, instead r simply in
the county of issue. The party performing
the ceremony niu-t make the return to tin
officer w ho issued the license. It would be
well for clergymen and othets authorized
by law to perform marriages to make note
of the almve fact, as there is a heavy fine
for a failure to properly report within
thirty days all marriages performed. The
aci went into effect at once. Ill all other
respects the law remains as it a as.
Mrs. Laura, wife of Jonathan Jones,
of Cambria township, died at Dixmont in

years. The deceased was born in Ebens

united in marriage to Jonathan Jones, a
prosperous farmer, and up until about a
year ago was a careful and prudent help

time h.-r mind became im pared and con
tinuing to grow worse it became necessary
about a mon'h ago to lake her to Dixmont
in hope ihat treatment in that institution
would prove beneficial. It was, however,
of no avail and on Friday death came to
her relief. She is survived by her husband
and seven children as also by two brothers

The lierlin liVn.nl says that Mr. Ira
Miller, w ho lives just east of Roxbury. on
the Somerset and lied ford pike, while
clearing a piece of ground a few days ago.
scratched up a nest of spurious gold coins
of the denomination of f.". There were
forty coins, all bearing the date 114. The
tarni.-hed appearance of the coins indica
ted that it was many years since they were
buried at the root of the tree which stood
where they were found. A little bit of
rubbing sufficed to brighten them up and
give them the appearance of genuine coin,
perfect enough in their imitation to de
ceive any but an expert. They were taken
to the lierlin bank, and after a careful ex
amination, pronounced spurious. The
,'. cnnl says that in a co-ifes-ion made by
Davy Lew is, Somerset county's notorious
robber and counterfeiter of by-gone days,
he spoke of having hidden some gold in
the neighborhood of lierlin. This may be
some of Davy's hiddi u treasure.
