The state geolopical ""survey commis
sion, w hich was organized in 1S74, disband
p I on Tuesday, the work having beeiicom-
i pleted. The state appropriated j43,
! for this work, besides the large amount of
money expended for the 120 volumes of re
j ports and atlases. The valuable speci
j mens gathered by the commission are de
posited with the Academy of Natural
S-'ipuces in Philadelphia.
Prisoners made a desperate attempt to
escape from the Uedford jail by setting
tire to the jail, and but for the timely dis
covery of the fire by sheriff Holmes, some
of the prisoners would have escaped and
others would have b;?en cremated. Georee
P.ynum and Jesse Johnson, first degree
murderers, were at the' head of the plot.
The fire was extinguished befoie the de
struction of the jail, and not withstanding
the confusion and temporary panic, not a
single man got away.
Stewart Hughes, of the almshouse, has
informed the editor of the Gosling that he
has saved ;,(XM over other years. The
(lonlinij does not give any of the details of
the saving, however, hut will probably do
It next week when we will be glad to pub
lish it. It will be of interest to all tax-
piyers and should be published so that
the people may know just wherein Mr.
Hughes excells his predecessor. We hope
that neither the modesty of Mr. Hughes or
thefVuxfiiiy will prevent its publication, fo
that is the only thing that will.
"Col." Joe Isenburg, a former resident
of Ebpnsbure, who several years ago re
moved to Johnstown and who has never
been considered by the residents of that
city as a valuable addition, arrived here
on Sunday with a team, accompanied by a
gentleman friend and some ladies. The
liveryman from whom they engaged the
team sent after them and took pos-ession
of the team for the reason mat they had
hired it to go to South Fork instead of Kb-r-nsbnrg.
As a cons quence Jim' and his
friends started homeward on foot.
On Sunday afternoon the house of VaN
entitle Lelller, in Jackson township,
caught (ire in the roof and was totally de
stroyed together with nearly all the house
hold goods. Mr. L flier was in the barn
feeding his stock and on looking out saw
flames bursting through the roof. The fire
had made too much progress to save the.
building and the family confined their ef
forts to saving what clothing and furni
ture they could reach,' but it. was nearly
all consumed. The fire is supposed to
have originated from a defective Hue

David Cassidy, .hi , Altnona teamster,
was struck by a Logan Valley trolley car
on Saturday night and probably fatally
injured. He was lying on the track w hen
the car approached. The circumstances
of the case awakened the suspicion that
Cassidy had Ihmmi foully dealt with. His
friends deem it probable that he was beat
en insensible and thrown on the the tracks
with murderous intent. It is known that
he quarreled w ith several parties in the
La Pierre hotel bar room during Saturday
evening and that one man struck him
twice with a In-er glass. An investigation
of the case has been inaugurated.
Judge William King died at l!edford
Saturday, aged seventy-two years. He
was ote of the most prominent residents of
Bedford county, and well known through
out Pennsylvania. He was ex-associate
judge of IS-dford county. For forty-live
years he had been blind, but so familiar
was he with the streets of his native town
that, uiigiiided eNccpt by a cane, he went
about as freely as -though possessed by
sight. Fx-Judge King was the last of a
family of brothers, all of whom were
prominent in the town and ?.unty. He
was an uncle of Alex. King, Esq., a promi
nent member of the Itedford county bar.
United States Senator Quay was in
llarrisburg one day last week and by some
strange coincidence Hon. J. C. Slineman
and Hon. S. 1). Patterson, of this county,
landed in Harrishlrg the same day. In
the coming battle for a successor to Sena
tor Camoron, Senator Ojiay is opposing
that "truly gooj and pius man" John
Wauamaker. Jenator Stinemau, by vir
tue of the instructions saddled upon him
by the li lair county conferees at the time
of his nomination, will lake his place
behind the bargain counter on his step
ping into the senate. It was good for both
of these gent lemen to see Mr. Quay in
time, tin matter who they may vole for. CI
A number of the Fkkkmax's subscri

I!ella Fran:. the 0 vear-old daughter
of Julian Frank, of Irw in. Ta., was burned
to a crisp on Thursday of last week.
While standing in front of an open grate
her dress caught lire. Screaming she ran
up staiis and entered her sleeping apart
ment, locking the door belling her. Her
screams attracted the attention of her
mother, w hD ran up stairs, and going to
the door tried to break the Ijck. but with
out success. The frenzied mother called
he little girl to open the door. No an
swer came, and Iinauy me screams anu
moans ceased. Neinbors came and broke
the lock. As the people entered the room
horrible sight met their view. Lying on
th- th Mir with the caruet burning unaer
her, were the charred au-1 almost unrecog
nizable remains of the young girl.

One niiiiil about thred weeks ago as
Frank Brookbank was returning to his
home. In the southern part of Sutnmerhill
township, from Wilmore. lo a held oT
Henry Coleman, on the west of what is
known as "The Dug Road." he saw some
men with a light digging in the ground at
the root of a hickory tree.
As he knew that Mr. Coleman had butch
ered that day, he thought that some per
sons were there for legitimate purposes
and passed on. This was at about s
o'clock in the evening. At 12 o'clock the
same night, as George sherbine, who Is
constable of Summerhill township, was
going home from Mr. Coleman's, he saw a
light in Coleman's sugar camp and, in
company with a young man named Stray
er, he went to investigate. They came
upon six men. with a spring wagon, to
which were hitched a pair of penies and
in the wagon was what appeared to be a
wooden box two feet long, one foot and a
half wide and one foot in depth. The box
appeared to be somewhat decayed.
One of the party was a tall young man
with a smooth face, and to him young
Strayersaid: "I think I have seen you
before," to which the other replied: "No,
you did not; I was never in this part of
the country before."
Having satisfied himself that the party
was not composed of chicken thieves. Mr.
Sherbine went home, and the men with
the wagon drove off on the Frankstown
road toward Johnstown, from which direc
tion it was afterwarwards ascertained they
had come.
Sherbine and Brookband both told what
they had seen, and an investigation re
vealed the fact that an excavation had
been made and filled In at the root of the
hickory iree at which Itrookbank had seen
the light. It was reopened and found to
be four feet square aud six feet deep, at
the bottom of which was seen an inden
tation about the size of the box Mr. Shi r
bine had seen. In digging the hole the
hole the the roots of the tree, some of
which were quite large, had beeu cut
away.
Who the men were, whence they came
and what they had in the mysterious box
are matters of conjecture. As the place
where the digging was done is within a
quarter of a mile of the old Hiickhorn
tavern, notorious as the rendezvous of a
gang of horse thieves upward of forty
years ago, the first impulse of those w ho
hear the report is lo attribute the burying
of the box to them, and it is even reported
that Herman Paul, who bears an unenvi
able notoriety as landlord of the den in its
days of reputed dark deeds, has been seen
in the neighborhood since the digging was
done: but. as it would be hardly possible
that anything buried so long ago in the
place above mentioned could now be locat
ed, the more thoughtful think that the box
was secreted year later than the time
above alluded to. Some think the box
contained valuables secreted at the lime of
the Johnstow n disaster.

Joseph Kamer, a lunihermen who resides
in (ialliuiu, was taken to the Altoona
hospital on Monday, where he was ad
mitted to be treated for a pistol shot
wound of the back. Kamer made a col
lection tour on Saturday and about Si
o'clock, p. m., was walking down the road
toward Callitzin. Suddenty a shot was
fired in the bushes along the road and he
fell badly wounded, with a 3-S-calihre
bullet in his back. A companion heard the
hot and hurried forward, finding Kamer
lying bleeding and unconscious in the road.
The injured man was taken to Gallitziu
where his injuries wete dressed tempor
arily, and on Monday he was taken to the
hospital. The staff surgeons probed for
the bullet but were unable to locate it.
The wound is serious, but Kamer seems to
1m doing nicely.
Kamer expected to collect about $'ViO on
iis trip Saturday. The shooting was evi-
denllv the work of murderous highway
men who meact to take his life and rob
the body of the money. Kamer suspects
that Polish or Hungarian miners had a
hand in the affair.
The C.allil.in Times in mentioning the
shooting of Kamer, says:
Owing to the numerous different stories
afloat in regard to the shooting of Joseph
Kamer on last Saturday, we will not at
tempt to give particulars in regard to the
affair but will merely state that it was
Constable Keith, of Tunnelhill. who done
the shooting and who claims he supposed
him to be a highwayman.
Boy Barard.
John, the ten-year-old son of Mr and
Mrs. Albert Martin, residing at Sideling
Hill, Fulton county, Pa., met a horrible
laih Fridav afternoon. With his two
sisters he was playing "horse." and they
tied him to an old gate which they set up
between a slack of straw and
stack of fodder in the barn-yard
,... of the girls had sone matches
and accidentally set the straw afire. In
trying to release their brother the girls
knocked the gate dowt. pinning him to
the ground. They fled to the house, and
in living the alarm, forgot to state that
their brother was being cremated between
the burning slacks. By this time the barn
,,,n fin- and tLe men of the house set
alHiut to save the live stock, never dream
lnr that the child was being cremated by
tl.p tlames. After he was missed the child
rei. told their story, abd the boy's charred
body was found.
