The big barn of David C. Fox, uear
Tarr Staliou, Westmoreland county, was
tired by an incendiary Sunday night and
burnt to t lie ground. Mr. Fox untied his
best horse and got him to the door when
the smoke and lire caused the animal to
turn back and jump into the feed gang.
He tried to get another horse out. but did
not sui-i-eed. He lost all his crops three
horses, all his farm implements and wag
on shed. It was a large barn though old.

tire on Friday evening. It broke out about
lifleen minutes of seven and by nine o'clock
the large liuildiug was burned to the

forts on the part of the people, the lire was
prevented from spreaiing to other build
ings. A large building, standing not more
than lifty feet from the barn, escaped with
a slight scorching. All this years crop of
hav and grain was totally consumed by
the tierce II lines.
One of our exchanges propounds the
following: "You can any day see a while
horse; why d. you never see a white colt?
Why does a horse eat grass backward and
a cow forward? Whv does a hop vine al
wiys wind one way and a bean another?
where should the inside of a chimney be
bigger, at the top or bottom, and why?
Can you tell why a horse tethered with a
rope always unravels il. while a row twists
it into knots? Why do leaves turn upside
down tiefore a rain? What is the length of
a flour barrel? What animals have no up
per teeth in front, and w hy?"

The Miiiinttiinrrr thought the Fi:kfm x
was in error w hen it stated thai more
work has been done on our streets this
summer than usual. The fact is that less
work than usual has iieen done. Si reel
Commissioner A pel has had a very small
force under him and the most of the work
done on the streets, such as huildiug sew
ers, making pavements, hauling awav old
buildings, etc.. has not tended to their im
tirovetneut. but to their detriment. (Vox
l in;.
The Frkkmax was not in error and no
crooked statement by the (ii,s!ij can
make it appear so. The Fkkkmax did not
state thai "more work has leen done on
our streets this summer than usual."
What the Fkkkmax stated was this:
"There has been more work done on the
streets and pavements of Ebensburg this
summer than in any year since the encoi -ooiation
of the borough."
All of which is correct as every man. wo
man and child outside of the "kindergar
ten" establishment in Ebensburg. knows.
The "building of sewers, making pave
ments, hauling away old buildings, etc..
may have caused some inconvenience, for
the time being, but the improvements are
permanent, and for the lasting good of the
town.
While the Fkkkmax is not in political
accord with the Imroiigh fathers or Ebens
burg. a majority of them being Republi
cans, we believe in giving them full credit
for what they are entitled to and for their
efforts in sewering the East end of Ebens
burg. the Fkkkmax gives them all praise.
As the "making pavements, hauling away
old buildings, etc.," were individual under
takings, the individuals guilty of the in-
liscretions complained of bv the Onslina
can each answer for himself. Ii may even
lie possible that Messrs. P.aiker Hros.. J.
H. Denny, J. tj. Lloyd and Thomas Davis,
who are the chief offenders, may. rather
than cause continued offense to the Oim
Ihiij, have the old buildings and pavements.
etc.. put hack in place and the new on. s
removed when they Iind that, iu the esti
mation of the (ittslinij, t hey are a "detri
ment." It may he well for ihe tieot le of
Obensburg who contemplate improve
ments in the future to get a Hnslinij per
mit. It may save them heaps of trouble.

Correspondence.
Carrol I town. Pa., Aug. 23. 1S97.
El. Fkkkmax:-On next Saturday will
be the Democratic primary or delegate
election. We hope that all districts of the
county will be represented by good and
true Democrats as delegates to the conven
tion on Monday next. That our conven
tion will be harmonious we have no doubt
and that they will select good men to the
franchise of the people, men of tried and
sterling Democracy, men of ability and
without blemish to flit the offices at the
ensuing election, is the heartfelt wish of
the writer. Hy so doing we feel confident
that the Democracy of Cambria will get
on its feet again, for can we not trace our
defeat in this county to dissessions among
ourselves? The bitterness which was en
gendered among democratic office seekers
was the cause of the dismemberment of
of our party in Cambria.
We now believe that all is harmony and
if the delegates select good men from
among our party we will wiu the fight at
the coming electiou for, as we remarked
last week, there is a growing dissessjon
among the rank aud file of the Republi
cans of our county. Let eveiy lover of the
good cause put his shoulder to the w heel
and keep the Democratic van moving, and
we feel assured ehat after the November
electiou we can shout, victory.

I'anfrmiml the Crime.
William A. Moore and John Lewis, the
men accused of robbing the Harnesboro
postoflice, were arranged before United
States Commissioner McLeod, at Tyrone,
on Thursday afternoon of last week. Post
office Inspector W. W. Dickson, of Pitts
burg, conducted the examination.
Postmaster Edward Huver. of Harnes
boro. was the wrst wltuess. He identified
the stamps found on Moore as the same in
amount ar.d denomination as had been
taken from his safe. The official enveljpe
iu which they were kept, and from which
they had never been removed, was ad
dressed to Rarneslioro. He also identified
a registered package, numbered 31.117. and
produced his registry book, show ing that a
record had been made of it.
The paper money stolen from the office
had been wrapped in a handkerchief. It
was iden tilled by a $.1bil! with a small hole
burned iu it. The silver money was identi
'ied by a dollar with the letter A scratched
on it.
The evidence against the men was con-
I elusive and Moore was held in f"-) and
Lewis in tl,."JKl bail for court.
After the hearing Moore confessed to the
robbery, but said Lewis was not with him
at the time but had met him at Pallon the
next day.
A special train on Sunday conveyed
a number of Ebensburg people to Palton.
being attracted thither by a colored cauip
meeting in progress in a grove at that
piace. The camp meeting was there was
attended by a large crowd of white people,
but the colored population was few aud
for between.
