Karly on Thursday morning of last
week the safe in the Sallsburg posi-ofliec
was blow u open with dynamite, and so j,,
money and twenty thousand twocenl and
ten thou-and oiie-e nt stamp? taken. The
burglars gained an entrance through a
rear door. The explosion occurred about
J-.-Jit on Thursday morning, as a clock
which hung dire.-tiv over the safe stopped
at that hour. The explosion was of such
force as to blow the door of the safe off its
hinges and clear across the room. Two
su-picions strangers were seen about the
town Wednesday, and they are supposed
To be the guilty burglars.
Water that is left standing in the
kitchen or Ledroum. and. above all, in the
sick room over night, is liable to cpntami
nation by the absmbtion of impurities
afloat in the air in Midi rooms, and to be
rendered wbo.ly unfit for use. No matter
that the water is cold, even to near freez
ing, it is so much the more liable to ab
sorb and hold in solution the foul gass.
and oin a nie at I icle. to w bii h it has been
exiiied. It is dangerous to ue such
water. Water should not l- so left: hut
if it should chance so to be. it should be
thrown a-. ay. l're-hly drawn water only
should alwavs be u-ed for culinary pur
poses as well as for drinking, w henever at

Spral- ii.g of his calling, he said: "I have
got a comfortable little home and all ihe
land I can cultivate simply from digging
roots. I have made it all in the last live
years, for I came back from 5 he West

Many interesting old documents are be
ing found in tbe sorting out and boxing up
now going on in the Westmoreland coun
ty court house, preparatory to tearing it
dow n so that a new building may be erect
ed on the present site.
Among them are records showing the
ownership of slaves and considerable prop
erty in what then constituted the county
by Ceorge Washington. It is found that
in business transactions the father of "his
country was very much like wealthy men
of to-day. Early in 17si" (ieorgesohi the
property of John Johns for a debt of V!
ss, and lid. Johns resided in what is now
Fayette county. The penmanship, al
though not up to the system now in vogue,
was neatly executed, most of the old re
cords haying been done by Arthur St.
Clair, who was Westmoreland's first pro-
thonotary, clerk of courts, in fact, nearly
every other court officer, as w ell.
Many of thee old books, particularly
the old diaries, kept by the fathers in the
county's early days, contain much matter
unlit for publication. Public documents.
written by King (o-orge, the Penns. and
other men ol rank both in the colonies and
England, are to be found in the records of
the cou uty's early days.

Aaron Icihl, whose home is in Pittsburg
and who came hereabout a week ago 4o

with a misfortune on Monday night that
will lay him up for some time to come.
The storm on Monday night blew two
ires across each other al the telephone

current, and had the effect of throwing
off the large bell at the power house.
When the licit J!ew off it struck Mr. Diehl

ure between the ankle and the knee. Dr.
Davison w as summoned, w ho reduced the
fracture and on Tuesday morning Mr.

on tbe "pensiion" list for some time, his
only duty lieing to look after the welfare
of his abode during the working hours of
his forty companions. One day recently
old Jim, after having made sever il Hose
surveys of the barnyard, continued his
journey to the mine blacksmith shop and
knocked at the door for admission. Plack-

John Olson, a paper hanger of this city,
is a remarkable man. says an Altoona
special to the Pittsburg Leader. His In
ventions and discoveries have gained him
some celebrity and considerable money.
Horn in Dunmark, w here his father still
resides, he grew up in ignorance, never
seeing the inside of a school house yet now
he reads and writes his native language
and English, too. Far three years he was
a sailor in the Danish navy. Since his
emmigratiou to America he has live! in
nearly everv state in the Union.
Ever since his residence in this city, he
ha been at work building a wagon, now
approaching completion, in which he in
tends to live for the rest of his life. As
soon as the wagon is completed Olson vill
move to a vacant lot of his near the city
and in October he will start, in company
with his little 12-year-old daughter, and
his brother, aged l." years, for the south.
Their plan is to reach the southern stales
before cold weather. Three horses wil'
draw the queer craft. Several maie friends
will accompany them also, and the men by
selling goods for several wholesale houses
will earn their living as they go.
Pleasure is the chief aim of these
wanderers. A full sporting cabinet, in
cluding some line guns, fishing tackle, etc..
will le built in the wagon. Next spring
the nomads will start north and w ill prob
ably summer in Illinois. The following
winter will ti ml them in Texas and thus
across the continent. If experience does
not quench their enthusiasm, the follow
ing year they will go to Asia and Europe. J
follow ing the same life.
"We are not in the show business," says
this queer genius, "but are out for a good
time and expect to have it."
The wagon is 7.x".'l feet. The floor is
built of very light wood. The frame work
is of ah. and -inch ash boards covered
with canvass w ill he theexterior covering.
The interior w ill be waiuscoaled with pol
ished maple.
Olson's queer home will be divided into
thrie apartments, separated by curtains.
The lirst room consists of a three-feel wide
hallway with Hose is and drawers on each
side. The middle room is seven feet
square anil lighted with four windows. It
will be titted up as a living room. Its ceil
ing will tie of canvass covered and fres
coed. Turkish rugs will cover the floor.
The third apartment will be used for a
sleeping room and will contain six bunks.
The stove used for cooking purposes is
also Olson's invention. In the wagon top
will be a gasoline tank, which will be
piped to the peculiarly shaped stove.
The wagon is wired throughout so that
connection can be made for electrje light
in any town or city containing an electric
plant. The front door opens on the tongue
of the wagon, w hich is arranged for steps
w hen not in use.
Every available corner has its use and
tbe whole wagon is a marvel of unique
workmanship.
