Dr. Abnc-r Griflith, one of Ebensburg's
best known citizens, died at his winter
home nearOcala. Florida, on Thursday
night of last week, from consurrptfon.
Dr. Grillith was a son of the late Thomas
Griffith, Esj., for years an extensive
lumberman who carried on a large business
in Cambria and McKean counties. The
doctor was born on his father's farm, near
Ebensburg, on the 5th of August, 18.V, and
when a Loy and young man took an active
interest in his father's business, assistiug

As Miss Sarah J. Sadler, a maiden lady
who lives about two miles east of Del
moot. Westmoreland county, was prepar
ing to go to bed Saturday night, a rap on
the door caused hei to luuuire who was
there, on licing given the name of a neigh
bor, she opened the door and two masked
men. with drawn revolvers, pushed their
wav in, demanding her money.
M iss Sadler declared she had no money
about the house, and one of the robber;
asked, 'V hat did you do with the money
you were to give to Mr. Cook?" She re
plied, "I have paid Mr. Cook all the money
I owed him." "We know better than
that," said the spokesman, and then
threateaed to commit a nameless outrage
upon her if she refused to tell. At this
point Charley Fry, a fourteen-year-old
lioy w ho stays w ith Miss Sadler, put in an
appearance, and he was nacnea mio a cor
ner at the point of a revolver by one of the
men. while the other gagged the woman
and tied a small shawl around her throat
so tight that she nearly choked to death.
He then ransacked Ihe house, but secured
only $3.
While the search was being made, the
mask fell from the face of the robber who
was standing guard, and Miss Sadler and
the bov recognized the man as Presley
Klingensmith, son of Reuben Klingen
smith, a neighbor. The men then threat
ened to kill them and bun. the house If
they made the matter public and took
their departure. Miss Sadler and the boy
were almost frightened to death, lieside
the former being badly injured in her
scuttle with the bandits.
Klingensmith was arrested on Monday,
after a desperate struggle with Coustables
Washabaugh and Sondels, and committed
to the Grecnsburg jail by by 'Squire Eich-
er. He refused to give the name of his
confederate, but a certain party is sus
pected and he will oe arrested as soon as
found, being now iu hiding.

Mr. Joseph Priser, of Karr township,
was a visitor to Ebensburg on Wednesday.
Reveraed 2.066 Cases.
The report of Assistant Secretary of the
Interior Reynolds for the present vear
shows the policy pursued in the adminis
tration of pension affairs. It states that
the important changes were in the rulings
and practiceand the followingoutof a gen
eral plan for securing equity, uniformity
and justice in' the determination of ap
peals. The assistant secretaty says the
liberal and generous spirit which prompt
ed the enactment of the pension laws has
been the guide of the department in their
construction. Former adjudications have
not been disturbed save where fraud, er
ror in law, or mistake were apparent.
The number of (tending appeals on the
docket, April 15, ls;i3. when the assistant
secretary took charge of this work, was
4,!n". Since that date 17.7.V new cases
have been filed, making a total of 22.720 to
be acted upon by the department. Of this
last number, 22.191 have been disposed of.
leaving 52li now pending, with the
work of the oflice during the last year
devoted to the consideration of current ap
peals, this condition existing for the first
time in the last eight years.
The acliod of the bureau was reversed
in 2,0'ii of the cases since April 10. 1S'J.".
The amount of work has been unpre
cedented in the history of this branch of
department business, showing that about
y.ono more cases were disposed of since
April I".. Is'. i.I, than had been in any like
period to that time.
"General satisfaction has followed the
recommendation of last year for such leg
islation as would secure better protection
to the pension tuud due incompetents and
others, followed by the law directing all
quarterly payment f to be made by check,"
says the assistant secretary.
"Gratifying results have followed the
passage or the act ot March 2, is'.i., w incii
secured an extension of the cases wherein
payments of accrued pension could be
made, as well as that of the act of March
fi, IS'.Mi, relating to the commencement of
pension under the act of June 27, ls'.io.
"The suggestion is again made as to the
advisability of such legislation as will
lodge in the federal courts the right of any
or.e on behalf or the government to asK
better protection to the pension fund of
those laboring under legal disabilities.
The following also are suggested: That
justice demands the universal application
of the con nioii law rule in proof of mar
riage: state laws govern and lead tod-
iiial of title iu cases which are equally
meritorious; that the pensionable rights of
minor children who claim under the act of
June 27, ls'.m, should lie deli ucd with more
certainty w here the soldier dies leaving no
widow surviving.
"The act of August S. ls;i2. relates to
pensionable title of those women who ser
ved as nurses dnril.g the war of the re
bellion. Title is confined to those who
served iu regimental, post, camp, or gen
eral hospitals. The refusal of the war
department to recognize those as properly
employed who served in the fiist three
classes mentioned tends to defeat their
title and renders this portion of the act
nugatory. Attention is invited to tins in
order that proper legislation may be en
acted to relieve any de-erving claimants of
unjust and unintentional discrimination."
The secretary of the interior, in com
menting upon the work of the assistant
secretary, says in his report:
'The report of Assistant Secretary Rey
nolds gives evidence of the pains tiking
care with which that official has endeav
ored lo be ImMIi liberal and just in pa'.sing
upon the many troublesome questions of
administrative policy iu pension matters.
Almost the entire time of the assistant
iecretary is required to allend to the af
fairs of this branch of Ihe department."
