An illuminated hat band is the latest novel
ty. It can be used as a lantern, giving such
powerful light that the bricks in a man's bat
can be readily enumerated. It throws its
effulgence ahead and will enable bummers to
steer clear of gas lamps and horse-blocks.
With this illuminator there will be no excuse
for a man pulling his neighbor's bell for his
own in a fit of ignorant bliss.
SENATORIAL CONFERENCE.—The Wil

G. B. ARMITAGE,
FIRE IN LEWISTOWN.—OR Thursday
morning, about four o'clock, we were
aroused by an alarm of fire, which proved to
be at Glamorgan Furnace. When we reached
it all hope of saving the burning buildings
was abandoned. The stockhouse in the rear,
covering the engines, hot blasts and other
machinery is entirely destroyed, as well as at
the structure at the tunnel head, whence the
cars conveying fuel and stock are carried to
feed the stack. There are contradictory ac
counts as to the origin of the fire, the most prob
able or which would seem to be that a sudden
sinking of the fuel and stock in the head of
the stack forced out a bilge volume of flame
from which the building adjoining the stack
was ignited, and before water could be had or
other measures employed to arrest it, progress
ed so far as to fire the stockhouse. The ben
derson, with their apparatus, was as promptly
on hand as it was possible at that early hour,
but were unable to render much service in
rescuing the buildings on account of the freez
ing of the water plugs. How far the engines
and other apparatus and machinery is injured,
what delay may be caused in resuming opera
tions, or to what extent the loss is covered by
insurance, we are unable to ascertain. We
sent over yesterday morning to obtain as full
information as possible, but those in charge
were reticent about supplying it.—Lewistoien
Sentinel.
WEDDING AT THE THIRD PRESBYTE-
RiAN Cnnacu.—A brilliant wedding was cele
brated at 2 P. 31. yesterday afternoon, at the
above mentioned church, in Springfield street.
Five hundred invitations had been issued.
The ushers were Messrs. H. D. Putman, of
Boston,
and C. A. Fowler, of New York. The
floral decoration were very beautiful, the
church being profusely decorated with flowers,
which were arranged with exquisite taste. At
the appointed hour the bridal party arrived,
the bride being Miss Carrie D. Neff, only
daughter of Mr. E. W. Neff, of Boston, former
ly of Detroit, well-known in business circles
there ; and the bridegroom Mr. Cassius P. Tay
lor, of Detroit, Mich., well-known among the
shipping and freighting merchants, the brides
maid being Miss Carrie S. Langley, of Detroit,
who was accompanied by Mr. N. N. Neff, of
the same place. The bride wore a handsome
shade of brown silk poplin, trimmed with a
deep shade of brown velvet, made into a trav
elling costume. Hats were made of the same
to match. The bridesmaid wore a light shade
of garnet silk, trimmed with a deep shade of
velvet, with hat to match. An elegant colla
tion was served at the residence of the bride's
father, and an inspection of the many choice
and valuable wedding presents contributed to
the entertainment of the large number of
guests, who extended, their most cordial wish
es to the newly-married pair for a pleasant
and safe journey to their western home and
very many years of happiness therein. The
party left on the 3. P. M. train for the West.—
Boston Post, Dec. 29th.
LPGAN IRON Woaxs.—Freedom is a live
ly place again. The steel works, under the new
lessees, Wm. Butcher & Co., are in vigorous
operation, and the steel turned out is of ex
cellent quality.
The Logan Company itself blew out the fur
nace at Freedom on the Ist of january, in or
der to put in a new hearth and in-lining, and
also to change it from a cold blast to a hot
blast. This is a charcoal furnace, with a two
feet tunnel-head, and a capacity to turn out
from 35 to 40 tons of pig iron per week. This
pig is worth at present about $5O per ton, be
ing $lO more than is paid for iron made by
anthracite furnaces.
The old forge is also in vigorous blast, con
verting pig into bloom, and a puddling fur
nace converts old scrap and other material.
In the large forge the Logan company is
manufacturing all kinds of bar iron, for which
it finds ready sale.
Altogether Freedom presents again all the
activity and energy of former days, and we
doubt not the owners and lessees are realizing
handsome profits, as they certainly should,—
Lewistown Gazette.
COMPLIMENTARY.—It gives us pleas
ure to read the following which we clip from
the last Cambria Freeman : The Western
, Union Telegraph Company has been greatly
favored, in Johnstown, by having in their em
ploy a lady of the greatest accomplishments,
both as a telegraphist and as a citizen, and in
return, they have manifested their gratitude
in providing an office for her that cannot be
excelled iu neatness. Fourteen wires enter
the office, and a switch-board register is put
up, and desks, carpet, stove, railing, etc., etc.,
so that this estimable lady in charge has every
comfort that heart could wish. We hope
other lines will take the hint, and furnish
their operators, at least, with reasonable com
forts, and not work them fifteen hours per
day. The Western Union line deserves the
thanks of the people for their attention to
their operators, and they may be glad that
they have in their employ such an operator
as Mrs. Ogle.
THE Centreville Furnace is still agitated.
Three of the gentlemen interested in the ores
of that section visited Centreville last week
with a view to asertainiug the quantity and
quality of ore and the best point to which to
build their road. We think the best route will
be found in the direction of Bedford. A rail
road from here will get a large amount of
local freight and can be more economically
built than from any other point.—Bedford In-
ROOT. 11. JACOB & Co., are now prepared
to furnish Anthracite and Broad Top Coals,

coal of all sizes and best qualities constantly

WARRIORSMARK, PA., Feb. 6, 1872.
MR. EDITOR :-Dear Sir: On last Sabbath
evening the people of this vicinity were highly
favored by a lecture from Rev. A. L. Gass,
principal of the Soldiers' Orphan School, at
Cassville, Pa. _ . .
The subject was "Solomons' Temple."
The Professor illustrated his remarks by an
engraving from a design of R. S. Fortner, Dan
ville, N. Y.
With this map he proceeded to give a de
scription of that wonderful structure. He re
marked that on last June he had the pleasure
of seeing the only church the U. S. Government
had ever built! This is a chapel connected with
a Soldiers' Home, in Dayton, Ohio. The tem
ple of Solomon was the only church God ever
built. It was the largest, most costly and
beautiful building ever erected. The largest,
for its base covered an area of one-half mile
square, and three sides were three stories high
and the fourth two. The most costly, for there
was so much gold and silver used in the build
ing of it, that when the sun shone upon it, it
glittered so that the eye could scarcely look
at it. When destroyed the last time by fire.
even after the soldiers had pilfered and carried
away all they could remove of any value, the
melted gold and silver ran down the sides of
the hill. The most beautiful and elegant, be
cause God Himself had given the plan.
The first temple, or Solomons' Temple, was
built by King Solomon about 1005, B. C., de
stroyed about 500 B. C.; again rebuilt and
again destroyed shortly after the death of our
Saviour. It was situated on Mount Moriah,
or, as often called, Mount Zien. The top of
the mountain had to be leveled and the east
ern side built up from the valley, a heighth of
more than 300 feet, and this was built of hewn
atone. Some of these stone were of such vast
dimensions that no known machinery of this
19th century could have raised and located
them. Herod the great had eighteen thousand
men employed nine years repairing it. And
we are told that on one occasion the Jews said
to Christ "forty and six years was this temple
in building." He pointed out the different
rooms, told their use, and described much of
the furniture.
Throughout, the lecture gave evidence of a
great amount of careful study and re-search.
Although the lecturer labored under the dis
advantage of a severe cold, he certainly de
serves great credit for the pleasing manner in
which he delivered this very interesting lec
ture. It is a shame that so many of us, who
claim to be christians, are so ignorant of the
first church ever dedicated to the service of
Almighty God.
At the close of the lecture itwas announced
by Rev. George Guyer that Prof. Guss would
deliver a lecture on a trip to the Rocky Moun
tain, on the following evening. So again, as
on the preceding evening, there was about
three or four hundred persons assembled to
hear about his trip.
And, as before, we were pleasantly enter
tained and greatly instructed. He told of the
appearance of the country, and that the Great
American Desert was a Great American myth;
how towns had sprung up in a day ;" how the
gold and silver mines were worked. He inter
spersed it with pleasant anecdotes; how he
had attempted to find some members of his
own religious persuasion, or, in fact, of any
persuasion; he found the members, but not
the religion, for, said they, "we left it all on
the other side of the Mississippi." How he had
determined to stay among the "big boys," and
how successful he was, for he had to get up
at midnight and remain up till morning.
We were very sorry when he left us on the
snow-covered top of one of the high peaks of
the Rocky Mountains, saying we might get
down as best we could. s.
PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY.
—The Pennsylvania Railroad Company uses,
on the main line between Pittsburg and Phil
adelphia 482 engines, 663 passenger cars, 6,-
632 freight cars, 731 coal cars, and 96 baggage,
mail and express cars. These are the proper
ty of the Pennsylvania company. In addi
tion to these there are run on the road 4,877
eight wheeled cars not owned by the company,
The road crosses 150 iron bridges, the total
length of which is 13,960 feet ; 39 wooden
bridges, with a total length of 6,977 feet and
17 stone bridges of 24 feet span and upward.
It penetrates 8 tunnels, the shortest one being
200 feet in length, and the longest 3,612 feet.
The number of passengers carried in 1871 was
4,352,769. The gross amount of tonage for
the same year was 5,472,401 tons. The re
ceips for 1871 were $17,531,006 82, and the
expenses $11,260,085 15.—Alloona Tribune.
BEDFORD AND HOLLIDAYSBURO RAIL
ROAD.- Mr. Hewit, the member from Blair
county, has introduced a bill into the House
incorporating the Bedford and Hollidaysburg
narrow gauge railroad company. This is the
same road for which Mr. James M. Wattson
made preliminary surveys last Fall for the
Kemble Coal & Iron Company. The road, it
is thought, will start at a point near the junc-
tion of the Juniata and Dunning's creek, and
run along the banks of the latter through the
"Corner" to the rich ore deposits in that re
gion. From thence it will run to St. Claire
ville, and through a comparatively level coun
try to Hollidaysburg. The country through
which the projecting road will pass is full of
iron ore, and it is owing to this fact that the
prospects fer its early completion are very
flattering.—Bedford Gazette.
WE are glad to observe that our Hunting
don friends are taking practical steps toward
the erection of a forty thousand dollar rolling
mill. Their facilities are such to justify the
effort. Coal, ore and limestone lie in close
proximity, and every indication points to the
possibility of a successful mill soon being
erected there. There is capital and energy
enough in Huntingdon to carry out such a
project. Pittsburghers would do well to ac
quaint themselves with the capacities of this
district for iron production. Its value has been
thrown in the shade by the current of capital
into other more attractive fields.—Pittsburg
Iron World and Manufacturer.
THE Hollidaysburg Standard says, that
Winfield Blake, of Martinsburg, left home on
Saturday last intending to go to Coalmont,
Huntingdon county, for the purpose of trans
acting business. On the evening of the same
day a boy passing along the Broadtop railroad
track, between Coslmont and Dudley, found
Mr. Blake's body extended across the track
severed in two. The unfortunate man leaves
a wife and three children. The cause of the
terrible accident is unknown.

"How TO 00 WEsr."—Forty years
ago, Rlinois was as far West as most people
wished to go, and journeys were made in the
legendary "Prairie Schooner," but in these
days of Progress and Improvement, the word
West has come to mean lowa, Nebraska, Kan.
sus, Colorado, California and the Territories,
and the traveer reaches almost any point
therein by a splendid Line of Railroad.
This line of Railroad is the BURLINGTON
ROUTE, which starts from Chicago over the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy R. H.; from In
dionapolis over the Indianapolis, Bloomington
& Western Short Line, and from Logansport,
over the Toledo, Peoria & Warsaw R. R., and
running through B7RLINOTON, reaches Omaha,
Lincoln, Nebraska City, St. Joseph, Atchison,
Leavenworth and Kansas City, connecting
with the Union Pacific, Kansas Pacific, and
other Railroads running from those cities.
Always go "By way of Burlington," and you
will sure to be right.
' • "
The Burlington Route has admirably an
swered the question "How to go West ?" by
the publication of a truthful and interesting
document, filled with facts in regard to Time,
Connections, Accommodations, rates of Fare,
and other interesting items, and illustrated
by a large map, truthfully showing the whole
West, which they distribute free of charge.
