Company's appeal from taxation of
costs made by Prothonotary Watklns
lu n caso wherein tho above company
was defendant anil John Lauchuor
plaintiff. Tho company objected to
paying for n survey and draft that had
been made. In the opinion ot tho
Court tho draft was necessary aud a
proper charge, tho Prothonotary is
therefore sustained nud tho appeal
dismissed.
An opinion and a decree was handed
down Anally discharging P. K McGur,
vey as an Insolvent debtor. The grant
lug of the discharge was strongly con
tested, but tho Court makes the point
that as the petltlonei, McGarvey, has
complied with the terms ot the statute
by which such discharges arc made, it
ha no discretion, aud must therefore
graut the same, no matter what it
opinion may bo iu the matter.

Ho was i niigh in his way; peiiiiipt,
a little domineering, yet those wlwi
knew him at his best always saw the
tender spot lu his heart. His father
was Amos Reige', but as uulike day us
night nas fut Iter and vui. In cully life
Jemmo was in the west nt times; he
was a drover and uiHde mid lost money !
in the business It was seemingly
come day go day with him. Ho wa
married to a daughter ot Mr. Koch,
of Mahoning street and several ohlld-
eu wero liorn to tliem. Thlflsp didn't
go right and Jerome got out of work.
Later he found employment at the
Bethlehem Iron Works. Then he came
back to Lobtghtou and secured em
ployment on tho Lehigh Yalley rail
road a brakeman on a ooal train. All
of our people remember his arrest ou
the charge of rape preferred by John
Vellhour of Third street, nut so many
months ago. Ho was thrown Into the
county jail at Munch Chunk and It
seemed then as if nil old trieuds lmd
deserted him all but hi wife, who Was
faithful and constant In her steadfast
belief in bis integrity and innocence.
Then come the trial at court. He was
found guilty oh ludloted aud was
sentenced to four years and some
months in the Eastern Penitentiary.
It was a crushing blow to Jerome
Relgel. It luoko his heart, and from
tho day he entered the dark, dreary
shadowa ot the prison ho began to
roop until finally ou last Wednesday
Ightthe dark messenger of death
idled him hence, let us hope to a
better nnd kinder world where suffer

notifloJ, i nt being iu poor circumstan
ces it was thought that the body could
not be claimed and thus be given a
decent christian burial. However, on
Thursday morning ox-shorlff Raudeu
bnsh telegraphed to tho prison warden
to hold the body that it would be
claimed and Preston Koch left on Fri
day aud look measures to recover the
body which had beeu turuod over to a
modlcul college as Is tho ustom where
tho corpso is not claimed within a
ccrtalu period. He had to pay 825 to
tho oollcgo for the corpse and Satur
day evening it was sent here and
placed iu Henry Schwaitn'H under
taking establishment ou First street,
wliero it wns placed In a neat but plain
casket and on Sunday taken to tho
homo on Mahoning street wliero he left
not long before iu life and health. He
had suiTered much and his features
were drawn and a look ot pain nud
sorrow wero printed on his face. Some
time before his death ho had been
operated on for an abscess lu tho side
and had apparently rccoverod, bouyed
up with hopo no doubt that his pardon
ould bo secured by the friends who
were laboring for It. Soveral w ecks
ago his case was argued before the
Board of Pardons iu session at Harrls-
bnrg by Freyman A Hcydt, but tho
recommendation wns refused. The
disappointment was so great that it is
believed that It broko his heart, lie
died, away from friends und family,
alondu n prison cell, away from tho
side ot a good wife and littlo ones who
would have gladly run to do his bid
ding. But God willed it thus, and

Tlits Is tho third week of the season
of Advent which is observed principal
ly in tho Catholic and Episcopal
churches. It began Sunday, 27th ult.,
nnd will Inst till Christmas. It is u
season of penance, which, though not
as sevcro In character as those of Lent,
pnrtakos of the same observances. Iu
the Catholic chuiches tho colors of
mourning are used, nud during tho
services tho Gloria is omitted from the
mass. Christians aro supposed, by de
nying themselves ordinary worldly
pleasures, to prepare their hearts for
tho coming of tho Savior, which the
season of Advent signifies, and many
rigid church members will not atteud
theatres, balls or any kind of amuse
ment during tho season. It the Cath
olic church marriages ale not permit
ted during tho Advent. Among relig
ious orders the period 1 observed vory
strictly, and all oommuuioatlon, with
the world, as far a possible, is avoided.
Special services are held in the
churches.

ress w it h
Interest. It was delivered ul an iiiinl-
j versary celebrat inn at Bethlehem Sal-
I tirday:
"Jam -sure I would lie at the first end
o-f a verv serious trouble If In my ad
dress I should attempt to speak of the
ninny features and excellencies nf the
imtriotlc order represented here to
night, it Is such a broad, subject that
the most eloquent might apply their
ability and not exhaust It. Behold the
magnitude of our older to-dsy, the
proud structure which wo have orected.
We oongratuiale ourselves m we con
template: the continuous, uninterrupt
ed onward march of our order to Its
present uosttion nud sower.
"This is the forty-fifth anniversary
of our order. We are here to-night In
honor of that event. The first oomtio-
sll Ion of our order was made up en
tirely of young jneu under tho age of
21 years. Pilor to the war for the
union Its organisation whs rather im
perfect nud It growth slow. The camp
were known only lu the Middle Slates.
When the fiite of our country trembled
lu the balance; when our government,
he best over dovlsed by the wisdom ot
mau, was threatened to bo rent ami
lorn asuuder, thousands of our true,
loyal, and bravo Sons of Ameiica vol
unturily enlisted in dctenso of tin un
broKen union of stulos uud the preser
vation of our government.
"They marched from the sen to the
gnlf, louring freemen wherever they
trod, and at the close of the great
struggle tho clank of the chain was no
longer heard, tho union of states re
mained as ono, thousands having died
and bled in defense ot the teaching of
the older, nanioly 'lovo of tho old Hug,'
and other tnousunds icturned to their
homes rementberlug that they had
fought add suffered to inscribe upon
tho folds of tho flag, that better, that
grander, that nobler word, 'Liberty.'
Through nil these yeara of upbuilding
our heurts havo been thrilled, our
minds Inspired, aud our hands upheld
by this high and noble sentiment, of
our order, tho 'lovo of tho flag.'
"To bang the order up to h higher
lutriotic standard has been the pro
pelling sentiment which has harruou
iited our meetings, sweetened our in
tercourse, cemented our work, and
inspired our plans leading the sur
viving members lu 1800 to tnko that
flag for which sd mauy had fought uud
bled, und, marching forth, held it aloft
and beckoned nil true Americans to
come up to its standard; nnd under its
influcnco they reorganized, placing the
order upou a moro substantial basis
1 torn that day to this its members
havo been earnestly at work locating a
camp in every town in tho United
States.
"Listen lo how grandly wo have suc
ceeded. Wo bavo camps In thirty
states. They number 1273. tuid tho
membership is 00,OOU Pennsylvania
has 000 camps with 50,000 members.
CainpXo. 30, of Bethlehem, bus 130
members. It was organized on Sent.
11, 1837, nutl iu thoso live years has ex
pended f-830 In benefits. Is it a wonder
that so largo and intelligent an audl-
enco bus gathered hero to-night ou
this our forty.flfth anniversary? No,
for till lovo tlio grand old Hag nnd tho
principles of our order. Hero lies the
sectct of our patriotism, for under
that ensign wo havo protection assured
to us not only iu this our own country,
but upon tho waters und foreign shore?.
Our order seek the progress and
perpetuity uf our country a country!
that has ugilcultunil resources equal
to sustaining 1,000,000,000 inhabitants;
mineral wealth uud mineral products
groater already than than that of any
other country. Our order seeks to in
culcate pure love for our institutions,
opposition to foreign interference with
state iuterosts lu the United States,
tho cultivation of fraternal affection,
tho preservation ot tho constitution of
the United States, and tho propogatlqn
of free eduoutlou. In getting from tlio
train at Rending tho other duy I saw a
largo placard. It road, 'Staud by our
free school system.' Had our fathers
been confronted by thatcardtheirhalr
would havo turnod gray.
"Our order is distinctly American,
for as children of its soil, reared be
neath its flag, loving It as none other
can love, knowing it as nouo other run
know, und having an interest in its
future welfare, nearer, truer, deeior
than all mankind besides, we have as
sociated ourselves together, pledging
ourselves to the olfeerranoo and sup
port ot Its laws, us become the sons of
freemen. The immediate beuellts of
our order are home benevolence, care
of the sick, burial of its dead, uud pio
tectlon of tho home, and uiidcrucalh
till.--principle is that beautiful senti
ment of 'Fraternity.'
"In conclusion, our fathers budded
well Hiiil wisely, and tbe most favored
uatlou ou the face of the earth is
theirs. But what of the future? What
effect will the toemlng thousands have
upon our fair lands who havo lauded
upon our shore during the recent
years? Wo have welcomed all who
have come. We luive glwn them a
share in the country's prosperity But
of late years tho character of the cur
rent, ot Immigration has changed. The
devisable classes are overwhelmed by
the pauper labor aud criminal classes,
There ia h tremendous Influx ol -Opto,
the lowest strata of Italian society, of
Huns, ot Russians. Tbe question may
well be asked upou this our forli fifth
auuiversary, Where is tho end?
"A great nation has beeu huilucd,
but its corner stone has been endan
gered by the preaching of anarchy aud
tbe swaiaiiug of the low anil viciun-.
We ouu HssimiiaW u certain amount of
tlrls element, Imt we can not become
tbe dumplug grouud for the world und
live. The time must come under siu-li
policy when tbe ignorant anil criminal
will outnumber tbe intelligent, uud
then wliet heuoipea of tlds proud ua
tlou? Ha not the period come to cull
a halt? Senator Chandler's bill, now
ready to be introduced, restricting im
migration, tor one year, is well taken,
for during this pause we may ask our
selves, 'Where are we at?' as touching
this question.
"Self preservation demands tltqi (be

ohauoe aud her future must lnefttably
be the history of the world. But Inun

James p. Kcrshner discovered tlicbtxir
It wns still n. urn. and Instantly put'
cut down, but It was Ion late. .Tlio
Hpurk of life hud tied.
Kerner had used nn ordinary skein
of stoeklugyarn. Xtit hllig wan noticed
In Ills conduct the past, week, lie wad
one of the best boliavod prisoners. He
was more or less eccentric on religions
affairs, but recently he wna rather
quiet. Kerner fastened oue eud of the
yarn to the top of the Iron dooretul tho
other eud about hisuock. Then press
ing all bis weight on the loop, he
strangled.
Kerner did the deed shortly after lie
had been given his dlnuef, whioh con
sisted of snurkrout,iiotntoesniitlbrH I.
It is custom rv to cloee the outer door
of the cells during meal time, and It
whs during this time that the act wan
committed.
His dinner was found untouchedaiid
this loads the Jail ofllclnls to believe
that Kerner lmd fully determined to
take his life, aud, iu order that he
would not lie detected In time, chose
the dinner hour. He always took u
deep Interest tn the religions services
usually Held at the jail, tie read t lie
bible frotiuentlv and also bad numer
ous tracts.
The suicide was discnvoiod when
watchman Kershner mndehls round of
Inspection. When he opened tho outer
door the first thing ho saw was Kerner's
back. It was so low that Mr. Kershner
thought Kerner might bo setting don n.
Kershner wunted to hand Kerner some
work, and went In only to discover tho
suicide. 11ml it not ben for, this, tho
watchman might have cloeu the door
ugatu, novel- suspecting what Kerner
nun done. ,
Tho ropoyHtu Used was alsout lo feet
long sud thin as a linger. Tho loop
had been securely tied. The strangu
lation il ill not discolor his face.
Tho cii iimstauces of the murder are
still fresh In the minds of all. He
choked his wife, aud she died during
the assault Kemor may not huv e mount
to kill her at that time, although ho
hud frequently threatened her. Ho
then curried her dead hotly upstairs,
hiltl it on tho bed, placed a lamp under
the bed and set it on lire and then ran
for n tloctor. The bed was burned, but
not sulllciont to wipe out tho evidence
of his crime. Tho marks on tho
woman's throat, uud tlio evidence nf a
neighbor woman, who saw tho choking
ton to i nc arrest ot lierner. lie plead
guilty to murder In tho seoontl decreo
and wns sentenced to 12 yenrs. Ho hail
served six yours and nuo month of his

Kerner was 18 yours of age, and his
relatives will be notified. Ills sou lives
in Reading and his daughter In Altoona.
Ho has a brother in Thiladolphi.
Tho late Mrs. Kerner Is u native of
