Mr. J. M. Heniinger, who lias had
charge of the Postal Telegraph ofiiee in
this place for a couple of years past will,
on the first of next month, gu to Connec
C ii nectieiit, where he will have a position
with the same company. Mr. Hemmingcr
is an accommodating operator and all who
have had business with him will be sorry
to see him go.
Some public spirited citizens of near
Johnstown, will form a co-operative asso
ciation for the employment of idle work
men. The persons leading the movement
have mineral and timber lands, but no
capital, and will share up with those who
help to develop and operate these lands,
the proceeds derived from the same. The
f Jea is to give unemployed men work.
F. M. Frecble. of Latrobe, has devised
an invention that dispenses with the
sprocket, chain, and pedals on bicycles,
the propelling power being motor in
which gunpowder Is the actuating agent.
The powder is exploded in a chamber by
electricity generated from a small battery.
Almost any speed, it is said, can be at
tained without the slightest physical ef
fort. Summit Lodge Xo. 31J F. .t A. Masons,

The A I toon a Tribune of Friday says:
The vein of coal discovered some time ago
or. the lturkbolder property in Homer's
Gap has turned out to be a great .find. A
few days ago the miners who were at work
uncovered a seven foot vein, which ap
parently extends a great distance into the
hill. The mine Is only one-fourth mile
distant, from the Wopsy, and there is great
probability that that line will be extend
ed to carry off the product.
Julia HurKe. a voting girl who went to
Johnstown recently from Indiana county,
became the mother of a child on Sunday
night which was found dead a few hours
later. The circumstances aroused sus
picion, but an investigation, exonerated
the unfortunate woman. It is thought
the child died from neglect, and the help
less mother a'one in a bire room w ithout
lire or food was unable to save it.
The house of Mrs. Elizabeth Ragor, a
widow who lives at Uhl postoflice, in West
Taylor township, was blown up and
wrecked with dynamite on Flidav night.
Mis. liager, her four children and John
Hudson, the postmaster, who boards with
Mrs. Rager, were in the house at the time
of the explosion and had retired, but no
person was injured. Neither the motive
nor the identity of the dynamiter is known.
The Pittsburg Ilessemer and Lake
Erie Railroad has completed contracts for
Km cars built wholly of metal, that is
bodies, under-framing and truck frames of
stee'. This is the practical ending of the
long theoretical discussion of the revolu
tion in the construction of freight equip
ment and is the first great substantial
movement in lolling stock equipment in
volving a vast amount of capital that has
been brought to pass in the last '21 years.
The contest over the name of Cherry

the Indiana county contingent expect to

their historic c herry tiee , announces a
Washington dispatch. Four years ago
Cherrv Tree, Venango county, would noi
consent to give up the name. The action
of the legislature in authorizing a monu
ment for the spot has caused the new
Postoflice Department otlicials to look
with more favor upon the plea of the In

Work at all the shipping points in the

ing from the amount of coal right that is
being purchased in this sectiou of the
country by large operators the coal in
dustry in Cambria county is going to be
greater than ever, notwithstanding the
many stories circulate to the effect that
Pennsylvania bituminous coal is being
supplanted in the eastern market by the
product of the Cumberland valley and

Carrolltown, Pa., April 21. ISC.
Ei. Fkkkman: The celebration of
Easter in St. Benedict's church at this
place was grand and impressive and calcu
lated to raise the minds of all who attend
ed to the serious consideration of the glory
of the great feast commemorated on Easter
Sunday. Rut we write more particularly
to note the manner in which these services
were enhanced by the choir tf school
children, male and female made up of the
greater number of children of the paro
chial schools of Carrolltown. Their ren
dition of the various hymns sang, gave
evidence of the careful and intelligent
training of the good sisters who had charge
of the parochial schools, and the remarks
aud comments of all who attended gave
evidence uf the charming and pleasing
manner in which the school children ac
quitted themselves, and of the high ap
preciation by the public.
It will be but a few days until the paro
chial schools which embrace about two
thirds of ihe children of the town will
close their terms, and it is but proper here
to commend the careful, wise and effective
management of these schools under the
thoughtful and efficient charge of the
Sister of St. Renedict and for their zeal
ous aud painstaking efforts, resulting as it
has, in the marked progress and success
of the pupils.
Farmers busy plowing and roads fast
becoming passable are indications thai

On Monday a decision of general inter
al was handed down by the supreme
court in the contested election case
of Martin J. Lawler, et al, appealed from
the quarter sessions of Schuylkill county.
It appeared that voters had placed upon
official ballots stickers designating an of
fice and the names of the appellants, and
they were returned elected. This return
was held to be erroneous by the court be
low, and the election void. In sustaining
the lower court Chief J ustice Slerrett said :
"There is no authority in the election law,
or elsewhere, for thus voting for a person
to fill an office, the name or title of which
is not designated or. the official ballot pre
pared for the use of voters. It is the duty
of those specially charged with the prepa
ration and distribution of the official bal
lots to see that the name or title of every
office be filled at the forthcoming election
is distinctly designated as the election law
specifically requires. The prescribed
mode of voting for persons whose names
are not already on the ballot is by insert
ing tlieii i names in the blank spaces pre
pared therefor in the right haud column
on the official ballot. It is the name onlv
that is to be thus inserted, not the title of
the office to tie tilled. The latter is al
ready printed there and constitutes part
of the bailot prepared for the use of voters."'

A Fatal F.xplonl An.
A fatal explosion of dynamite occurred
Friday afternoon about 4:30 at Franklin
Forge stone quarries of the Pittsburg
Limestone Company, limited, in Blair
county.
James Leonard and Joseph Patterson,
of Claysburg, and a ten-yeai-old sou of
Wilson Carbury, of Saxton, were loading a
block hole. Nearby stood a can contain
ing powder and dynamite. It is claimed
that Patterson lit his pipe and threw the
match carelessly away. A terrlftic ex
plosion occurred. The Carbury boy was
so badly injured that he died last night.
Leonard was seriously injured and is'now
a patient at the Altoona hospital. Pat
terson also was badly hurt. Dr. D. 1.
Heatherman reudered medical assistance
as soon as he could reach the scene.
Young Carbury, who was killed, was
spending a week with his father, who is
employed at the quarry, and lent a volun
tary hand to the work. His body was re
moved to Saxton this morning. The
quarry Is operated by John Hog mi re.

A dispatch from Santa Fe., N. M-, says:
Francisco Navarro, a pupil in the United
States Indian school, was fatally shot un
der peculiar circumstances. -While play
ing on the college campus the boy sudden
ly clapped his hand over his heart and
startled his playmates with a cry of pain,
repeatedly exclaiming: "It is right here "
The boys tore open his clothing and found
that he had been shot with a rifle ball.
No report of a gun was heard, and the ball
had come downward from some unknown
source. Later it developed that Deputy
Sheriff Alexandria Allen and ex-Repre-senta'.ive
J. E. Lacome were shooting rab
bits down the valley, ful.'y two miles dis
tant and that a stray ball from Allen's
Winchester rille had, after traveling tb
distance, passed over the three-story
school buildiog and In Us fall struck the
boy.

Many of our citizens w ho bad formed the
acquaintance of Mr. James Parrish were
sincerely sorry to hear of his death, which
came like a flash. We trust earth's loss is
heaven's eternal gain.
Many of our youug ladies have retired
the sewing machine and butter bowl and
have hiuged their future destinies on the
road trackers.
Our people have got a move on. You
would laugh to see the good housewife
with a club in band to beat John if Jack
don't beat the carpet up to the regu'ation
style.
The cold snap did us a deal of good by
drying up the mud.
We met Judge Bell and Lieutenant Dive

The coal trade thus far this week has
been very dull with little hope of Improve
ment. The domestic or home consumption
will drop sixty per cent, during the next
five months of scorching days and chilly
nights.
The home and surroundings of Esq.,
Leahy are undergoing improvements of a
substantial character.
We are pleased to note that in the face
of hard times our people are all happy and
hopeful.
The public school term will close the last
of this month.
Herman Council, the obliging and gen
tlemanly agent at this place, reports a
slight increase in business. And by the
way, Herman leads the white ribbon cru
sade and there are others on his staff.
Our people generally are cleaning up, the
alleys lanes and courts in and about town
Half of our town has no regulation
standard or systum of pavements or walks
and the other half have none at all. We
certaiuly have bad a town of class legisla
tion. In the past ten years one half the
people were farming the other half and
feeding them on mixed candy.
We trust w ith your next issue the finan
cial statement will be laid before the pub
lic for persual and comment.
The merry humming of the plough boy
can be heard on our hillsides especially
when a large boulder, or root is struck.
We trust by the time we transmit you
the next mail pouch the robbius will come
and nest again.
The commercial trade is certainly im
proving, so says Mr. P. F. Casey who is
the pioneer salesman, on the Pittsburg di
vision since 13 and is still hale la the
race.
Dr. McGarvy was a visitor to town to
day; he is always in for swapping, curing
or treating all the ills that horses are heirs
to. Call again Doctor and take a morning
off.
Our friend John Halley is a Johu Brown
man all through the race for sheriff. No
stall, no compromise; Brown first, last
and all the. time,
A. L. Etmier, the jovial shoeman, is in
