honor.
Mr. Martin's candidacy can net fail te
carry with it much popular strength upon
the basis of perianal and professional char char char
uoier. Ills candidacy Hill annual te the
soldier element, since he entered the war
as a mere boy, enlisting at the age of l'l,
and re-eulistlng as a votereu private when
only 18. His service was In the 7Uth Penn
sylvania Veteran Volunteer Infantry,
which was one or the fighting regiments of
the Southwest. He participated with his
regiment iu the battles and campaigns
under Sherman and Themas during a con
stant and active sorvlceiu the Held of nearly
four years. He hed enlisted from Phillips'
academy, Audever, Mass., coining home
te Lancaster te enlist with his lullow lullew lullow
tewnsmen at the outbreak of the war.
After the cioteot ine wur Mr. .Martin
completed his conegOcourso and graduated
t Amherst in '71. He was then for se oral
vears encaged in the lumber business lu
'Centre, Cambria and Clinten counties,
w he ti no still has large Interests, and where
his friends will doubtless give his candidacy
clfectlve support. Since then, us a member

When Senater Quy announced bU can;
dldecy for state treasurer la 1808 he was
opposed, it will be renumbered, by Mr.
MageeVi candidate, Mr. MeDeriH, who had
moved from Plttabniw and aoeulred a resi
dence In liancaeter county. Before Quay's
candidacy wae announced. MeDevltt'e
campaign had advanced se far taat be ap
peared te have captured In advance all the
Lancaster county delegates te the state
treasurer's convention. At this critical
Juncture Mr. Martin took up the battle,
aad although the chances seemed alto
gether against him Mceeeded ia electing
half of the delegate! from the county for
Colonel Qasy. Aa this deprived Mr. Me
Devltt of the support of the full delegation
of his own county It virtually ended all
opposition te Colonel Quay at a tisae from
which his careethes been steadily upward.
While here Mf, Martin had an Interview
with Senater Quay, and also called upon
Senater Cameren. The cordial relations of
Mr. Martin with Seuater Quajr.aVe ee Well-,
known that they might lead te the infer
ence that Senater Qnay has committed him
self In favor of the Lancaster county candi
date for the lieutenant governorship.
There is, however, no authority for
saying that each Is the case. While no one
who knows the relations between the two
gentlemen can conceive that Senater Quay
would lift his hand te de any act unfavor
able te Mr. Martin's cause, It seems evident
that he prefers te oeoupy the position of
neutrality between friends.
It Is evident that for the second as for the
first place upon the state ticket it is te be a
fair and manly contest between leaders of
the party, any one of whom Republicans
can make no mistake in honoring.
DR. HIGBEE'S REPORT.
Salaries of Teachers Considered Small.
An Increase Suggested.
According te the last annual report of the
late Dr. K. E. Ulgbee, superintendent of
public Instruction, there has been an In
crease of 647 schools In the state during the
year, making 121.889 schools at present. The
Increase in pupils Is 13,176. The Inorease
in graded schools is 500, the whole number
being 10,117.
" Teachers confined te one line of studies
and these that are suited only te a certain
age are apt te take into view only the small
section of a child's life belonging te that age,
and 'this weakens the great incentive te
work, which comes from the clear vision of
the end of education in the beginning.
The end is net the examination for pro
motion te another graie. The solid cul
ture of the child toward a well furnished
personality, a develeped, Intelligent life of
thought and act, must be the main aim of
all teaehiug j and this should net be broken
in upon by any Interruption of artificial
f trades. lie ace, great caution Is required
n graded schools, lest, through anxiety te
S remote from grade te grade, the child be
tied mere for examination than for life.
"The increase In the salary of teachers
has been very small. New that the amount
appropriated by the state is two millions
double what It was four years age It is te
be hoped that the average salary of teachers
will be greatly enlarged. It is new for
male teachers only $39 per month and for
female teachers only a little ever 130. This
want of proper remuneration is injuring
the status or our schools. It is retarding
the whole educational work of the state,
and every exertion should be made te
remedy this defect. Direct legislation can
effect but little. Public sentiment must be
aroused. Directors and parents must real
ize the vast Importance or our schools and
the great responsibility of our teachers.and
refuse te make the matter of selecting them
nothing mere than the employment of the
cheapest candidates in the market.
" Oar superintendents else must make
the previsional certificates feweraud fewer,
demanding high grades and insisting en
mere thorough examinations. By con
certed action tue way may be opened for a
hotter condition of affairs as regards salaries
and tenure of office. While thankful for
the legislation secured In behalf of the
schools, we regret very much that the bill
for a closer supervision of our schools in
the rural districts failed of passage.
" Cleser supervision is se necessary that
It must seen come. The need of it becomes
mere apparent every day, and very many
directors are only watting for authority te
organize the work. There are many ad
vances yet te be made before the full effi
ciency of our system of free public schools
can be secured, te which we shall have oc
casion te refer horeafter."
The report closes with the thanks of the
superintendent te his co-workers in the1
cause of education.

FIRE IS DRUMORE.
A Large Frame Darn Wltb the Contents
Entirely Destroyed.
A large frame barn en what Is known a s
the " Bleacher farm," en the State read
about one mile east of the Buck, and three
west of Quarryvllle, was destroyed by fire
at neon en Thursday. The tire broke out
while the farmer-was at dlnner, and In less
than an hour the birn with Its content
was entirely destroyed. The centents con
sisted of hay, wheat and straw, and the
barn was full.
The property was occupied by Geerge
Wittlg and ewned by him. It was under
levy en an execution Issued by D.
B. Landls, president of the Concstega
bank. Last Stturday Mr. Landls had Mr.
Wittig's persenal property sold by the
sheriff.
At the time the flre was dlsrovered there
were several horses in the stabp,ts well at
some cows, but by a geed deal of hard
work they were gotten out. The hog pen
and ether outbuildings wero burned, but
the beuse was saved.
The barn was almost a new one and
quite large. The less will be heavy, but It
lias some insurance, hew much Is net posi
tively known, or where It Is. The tire was
no doubt of Incendiary origin.
WahuetnClub Sociable.
The Wulineta club, a social organization,
compesod largely of young people of the
West Kiid, held n sociable last night
in their hall ever Ne. 3 East King street.
There were twenty couples present, who

In Thursday's iNTXixtaKNCKR there ap
peared an account of a wilful destruction
of school books in the building en Seuth
Mulberry street, in charge of Prof. Carl
Mats. The flrst act of vandalism was com
mitted en Wednesday evening, when the
school wae entered and 100 books were
rendered worthless. On Thursday be
tween the time the school closed at
Boen and when it was opened at 1:40 o'clock
the school was again entered and about 00
books were tern in the same manner as
these en Wednesday night, Indicating that
It wae the work of the same party. The
committee en text books, te whom the act
of vandalism was reported, at onee took
steps te apprehend the guilty parties by
offering a reward for their capture. This
apparently made the vandals oelder. for
they paid a third visit te the school
en Thursday night. The damage done last
night was fully aa great as that or Wed
nesday night. The teachers' rooms Invaded
last night were these of Prof. Carl Matz and
MlssWeltiel. Uewthe entrance was effected
is a mystery. When the school building was
opened this morning the doers and win
dows were as securely fastened as when
closed en Thursday evening, but a villain
had been there through the night, and the
tern books were scattered around the room.
What appears very strange is that the
deer of Miss Weltzel's room was securely
locked this morning and all the windows
of the room were also locked the same as
en Wednesday night. Nene of the ether
windows or doers appeared te be tampered
with, leaving the inference that the person
who committed these dopredatlens has a
key te the front deer, and also te the re
maining school rooms.
These repeated acts of vandalism have
caused great excitement in that section of
the city. The beard of directors will spare
no labor or expense te secure the arrest of
the guilty party, and If caught he, or they,
will be prosecuted te the mil extent of the
law.
AX AWfUL QUESTION.
Experts Give Optnleus On Hell As a
Place.
The Philadelphia Inquirer put the fol
lowing question te promlnent clergymen
of that city:
As a student of the Bible, what idea have
you formed of hell as a place ?
THR rnKSBYTRRIAN HKtX.
Rev. AlexanderAllsen : If we accept the
Bible aa the word of Cled, and therefere the
truth, we are bound te belleve In a hell as
well as a Heaven. Here we are in a state
of existence that Is mixed ; thore we shall
be together only of a kind. Every one at
death shall go like Judas te " his own
place " Fire Is doubtless used in Scrlpture
figuratively. It is the strongest flgure we
can think of as an element of physical
torment and pain. What would be Its
equivalent In relation te the seulT Surely
remorse of conscience. Ner de we knew
what remorse means new. In this life
bone Is ever regnant.
Rev. Julius Horeld: I discard all theso
diabolical, igneous, volcanic and heart
rending conceptions of a material bell,
which are better ex pressed In the grating
discords and chromatic figures of Wagner
than by the linguistic resources of the
poet, and which with the dlabelus vulgaris
of the nursery have long since been rele
gated into the category of Inmglniiry en
titles. Fire is a symbol of purification and
of punishment. Hell described in terms
of Are is a state and place of punishment,
and the Bible leads me te infer that the
seurce of this punishment shall be mere In
the character of the Individual than in the
horrors and cataclysms of the environ
ment.
Rev. Rebert H. Fulton answered : Sen
sitive mortals, net a few, are heard iu these
times te doclare that thore Is no hell, or If
there is, it may net last for long. The wish
Is father te the thought. The facts of this
llfe, however, compel a different verdict, te
say nothing of the emphatic iterations of
scripture.' Is net the way of tlie transgres
sor hard, even newT Who, then,
with this bofero bis eyes, can believe that
the sinner as a sinner, la going
te be happy and prosperous In the
next life. Then if it be suggested
that the suffering Inflicted there may tend
te purify the slnner and make a saint of
him fit for Heaven by and by, this again is
offset by observation which shows that
people often suffer long and sharply new
without becoming morally better, but
rather worse. Divine grace is remedial.
Yes, but who can point te a distinct. Thus
oeltli f hn TViffi. in rflieA tlin linnn Hint thnnn
who sin away thelrday-of-grace will And
in tnat under world a second day. wnat,
then, is the wise conclusion T That each
admit the possibility of a bell even fr him
self, and then set out ts the gospel directs,
te escape it, Just as ancient Let, beheving,
when the angels told him, that Sodom was
about te be destrnyed, fled for his llfe and
larrieu net in an tue plain.
Rev. Jehn Hemphill said: The argu
ment for hell as a placn is precisely similar
te that for Heaven. If Heaven Is a place,
se Is bell. If Heaven Is everlasting, se is
hell.
Rev. Edw. V. Brnen wrete : Heaven
will contain everything te make it attract
ive; se will hell in the state of man's
heart, and his surroundings possess every
element of suffering.
THE rrtOTESTANT EPISCOPAL 1TKI.T..
Rev. James S. Stone ; I have no doubt
that hell, using the term In Its commonly
accepts 1 meaning, Is both a place and a
state. I shrink irem trying te plcture it,
and when I read the "Inferno" I tromble
at every line. That the present and the
future of the ungodlyareterrlblelscortaln.
They carry a "bell" In their own heart
and they make a "hell" wherever they
go. After death they will coutlnue te de
the same.
Rev. Thes. K. Cenrad replied : The
Bible docs net enter Inte details as te what
that punishment will be, but under figures,
which, of course, are net te be Interpreted
llterallv. intimate only that It Is sufficiently
Intense and terrible te vindicate the In
finite holiness of Ged. That punishment
must continue, se long as the sinful condi
tion lasts. But since the sinful condition
cannot change oxcept through the Influence
of the holy spirit, which has been w 1th
drawn at death, It must, therefore, be
eternal.
Rev. O. A. Latliner bollevcs that nothing
less than man's danger of eternal punish
ment would buve can sod Cled's Incarnute
Sen te come from Heaven and suffer and
die, as He did.
A MORA VI VN OI'ISIOX.
Rev. S. J. Blum said : In the Old Testa
ment the word sheel and In I he New Testa
ment the word hades are names applied te
a locality where the souls of the departed
were supposed te dwell.
Many passages of Scrlpture might be
cited In which the word hades Is mcutloned,
but It Is se often used metaphorically that
It Hoeins te me we cannot determine
whether It be a locality or net. In the
Sarable of the rich man and Lazarus the
cscrlptlen of hadoslseldently metaphori
cal; the tlame, the drop of water, the
linger of I-azarus and the besom of Abra
ham are all figurative and could net be
descriptive ei a real Incident.
After a careful consideration of all the
imssages of Scripture in which hades is
monUened I de net think that we can
drtermlne whether It be a locality or net.
We have no posltlve evidence en either
side. All that we can possibly determine
Is, that after death thesplrit Is disembodied;
the righteous outering Inte a state of con
scious happiness, the wicked Inte a statu of
conscious misery,
KOUAN CATHOLIC UKLIIU'.
Rev. Ignatius F. Ilerntman wrote: A
Catholle must belleve in the life everlast
ing, (Apostles Creed). He must boliee
that the reprobate will go Inte eternal ter
ment, but tue lust into eternal lire -Matthew,
xxv : 40. He must believe that the
punishment of original sin is the privation
of the beatific vision, whilst that of actual

LANCASTER, PA., FRIDAY1, DECEMBER 20, 1889.
may be summed up aa fellows : Thai hell
is a place la the same eense that heaven Is i
thatlhe pain of the leaa of Ged la IU great
est torment, IU mental torture, but that
there is also the pain of sense, physical
suffering for these who in life were guilty
or actual ain j that the fire et hell is a real
.Are. All these eenstKuU a material hell.
Rev. Jeseph J. Campbell replied : i,The
dogma or the church simply teaches that
there U a hell, and that Ilia everlasting.
The commonly received opinion U that the
punishment of hell oeaeisu of fire a fire
compared with which ours en this earth U
only a painted fire, aa BC Augustine aaya.
As te the location of hell, we reed in one of
the epistles of St. Peter tliat the devil gees
about like a rearing Hen, seeking whom he
may devour. Consequently as he carries
hell with him the location may be whore where
ever the demon or damned soul Is. The
church defines nothing about the locality
of bell.
As te my own opinion en the subject
like the church, I have none.
A LUTHERAN OFINIOW.
Dr. Jes. A. Selea said t Ti It a place T
Yes ; but like Heaven, it la net marked by
material boundaries. Is it a place of
material fires and flames f Ne; but of
such fires aa pertain te the world and state
of being in which the Inoerrlgbly wicked
have their final portion, and of which we
cannot conceive except through earthly im
ages. ,
It is a covelary of Heaven. The exist
once or sin necessitatis a hell, if there is te
be a Heaven.
Just what the final hell Is, It is net In my
power te say but from the nstn re of things,
It Is the refuse receptacle of eternity, the
worst place in the universe, where every
thing perslsUntly adverse te Oed and the
peace of the glorified dies the eternal death.
THE BAPTIST HBLL.
Rev. T. R. Hewlttt said : ' My opinion
of hell Is that it Is a bad place the cesspool
of the universe, Inte whleh flews whatso
ever 'deflleth' or 'werketb abomination,'
or 'maketh a He.' It was net prepared for
man, but for 'the devil and his angels.'
Men make their choice during their pro
bation. Probation is trial for eternity. At
death character becomes fixed.
Our belief en this awful subject rests
largely upon the testimony or Jesus Christ
himself, ne declared of these who enter It
that " their worm dyeth net and the tire Is
net quenched." He called it ' hell," " bell bell
flre." "outer darkness," "the bottemloss
flit." In the sixteenth chapter of Luke He
ifts the veil tbst bides from us the mys
teries of eternal wee and shows us a soul
" In hell lifting up his eyes In torment."
If any say such languageis figurative and
metaphorical, we answer that when the
scriptures speak of future retribution In
plain and unflguratlve terms it is enough
te appall the boldest heart.
Rev. Frederick B. Qreul said : Judas Is
said te have geno te "his own place"
when he died. Acts, 1: 25. The student
of the Greek knows hew powerful this
utternnce is. While being Is everlasting
and substantial, It does net fellow that the
cearse material and frequently grotesque
notions about literal Are, aa we knew flre,
will sUnd In sound thinking. I am per
suaded man is the embodiment of his own
hell. By the law tbst Anally will assert
all things and establish everlasting asso
ciation between kindred minds, men will
be separated as the geed and the bad, and
assigned te either Heaven or hell
as the home perpetual. Several things I
feel confldent of, flist, that hall will be
away from the glorious manifestation of
Ged's presence that is, out of sight;
second, that the population of hell will be
prodigiously small as compared with that
ofHeaven. One reason for this last state
ment Is the fact that se Immense a propor
tion of the human family die in childhood.
METUODIST VIEWS.
Rev. Wm. J. Mills said : " The strengest
proofs of a bell of some kind in the next
world are In the fact of se many similar
hells In this world, produced by the same
causes and governed by the same laws.
Men's notions of bell arlse very largely
by their surroundings. With the erientals
it has always been Intensely het with the
arctics intensely cold, because their great
est suffering is from extretne cold In that
high latitude. Ne location in the universe
can be bell te a pure, sinless spirit, aud
none can be Heaven te an impure, guilty
soul. As there are no actual up or down In
the universe, I would net knew whero te
leek for bell outside the guilty sinner hlni hlni
self." Rev. J. W. Sayers said : " The Blble
places Heavcn and hell in striking
antitheses Heaven for the righteous, hell
for the unrighteous. If the one Is a place,
the ethor must also be a place.
I believe the punishment will be both
material and spiritual, but chiefly
spiritual. "
UNITARIAN IPRAH.
Rev. Jeseph May said: Amidst the same
external conditions, ene man may be said
te be iu bell and his next neighbor in
heaven. There is a legend of a saint who
was sent by mistake te bell. But be car-
riea neaven wun mm, se tuac tne aauinea
felt their miseries assuaged, and the fires
burned-lew. So-Swedenberg tells of a
wicked man sent te heaven,but the society
of the blest was a torture te him. The
essence of bell is, therefore, a state, and
what this Is Is easy te see. It Is sin. Ne
ene can be really unhappy who isconscleus
of rectitude. Se far as a man is sinful, he
Is lu bell, even though he may net knew
It. Hlsjudgmentdayis that en which he
awakens te knew It, and the socrels of his
own heart are revealed te blm.

SWKDEKBOKUIAN BELIEF.
Rev. Win. Ii. Worcester wrote: One pro
vince of the spiritual world la hell. Its
Inhabitants, called In Scripture devils and
satans, are human beings, who in thelr
life en earth, have chosen and confirmed
au evil life, thereby destroying their abil
ity te enjey Heaven. Their vlle and
dreadful surroundings are the embodi
ment of their evll affections and thoughts.
Hell-flre is the burning of evll passions
which are still cherished though restrained
through fear. Ne man or woman, Chris
tian or heathen, Is there In whom remains
anything of conscience. But they who
have confirmed themselves In evil lu this
world where cbulce is free cannot jiass the
gulf hereafter. Ner will eternity make It
mero possible.
THE JEWI9II IICPLY.
Rev. Dr. Jeseph Krauskopf answered:
The Jews find little or nothing In their
Blble te warrant a beltef in hell. The
doctrine of eternal tortures and sufferings
In u burning hell Is net taught in the Old
Testament. The word sheet In the Hebrew
means the grave, net hell. The few rofor refor rofer
enccstosatan we find In the Old Testa
ment. are all foreign grafts, and se altered
as te be altogether harmless. The rabbini
cal lttorature knows nothing, as fur as I
remember, of eternal tortures. The longest
punUhment It assigned was ene year, and
the suffering Inflicted is in keeplug with
the naturoef thocrime. When the wrcng
has been expiated Ged sends his choseu
angels te announce their freedom, te wash
them, anelut them, and array them In
magnlflceiit garments, and escert them te
the presence of Ged, by whom they are
received with Joyful welcome. Such or
similar views are still held by many of the
orthodox Jews. The reform Jews hue
entirely discarded the belief in hell.

Mether and Sen Attack Deputy Sheriff
Annstrerux-The Mether Badly Scalded
la Trying te Injure the Officer.
Deputy Sheriff Christ Armstrong had an
experience en Thursday, while serving a
legal paper, that he will net seen forget.
He left this city in the morning te serve a
writ of dispossession en Michael Yako, of
Maner township, Issued In a suit of Chris
tian H. Rohrer. Mr. Rohrer bought the
property occupied by Yake, but could net
get him te vacate It He entered a suit of
ejectment, te which Yako paid no attention,
Yake allowed two terms te iaas, and then
Mr. Rohrer obtained a Judgment by do de
fault Yake was again notified that he must
vacate the premlses and was told that If be
did net he would be ejected forcibly. He
refused te go and threatened te make It het
fer the officer who attempted te ferce his
way Inte the heuse.
lake, his wife and Brown son were en the
lookout for the sheriffs deputy, and when
lie arrlved and Hed his horse in the yard,
Mrs. Yake locked the deer, put the key In
her pocket and remalned outside with ber
son. The husband stayed In the house.
Sheriff Armstrong stated his business
and Mrs. Yako told him she had the key
of the heuse In her ocket, that she would
net open the deer and dared him te attempt
te force it. The sheriff endeavored te
argue with the woman en the felly of
her ceurse, hut the would net listen te
reason. He told her that if she did net
open the deer he would force It She again
refused aud the sheriff burst open the deer
and entered the house. She aud the son
quickly follewod the officer Inte the
kitchen.
Depuly Armstrong took his writ of pos
session from his pocket and began readlng
It Jtofero he had progressed far In read
ing, Mrs. Yako plcked tin a part of a chair
and attempted te strike the sheriff with it
He made au effort te teke the weajxm from
her ; while struggling with ber the son ap
proached Armstrong from behind and
struck him a heavy blew en his head with
apeker, which stunned him for a moment.
He left the woman te defend himself from
the son's attack and a torrible struggle en
sued. Beth men wero en the fleer strug
gling for several minutes, the one te get
the hotter or the ethor, and finally the
sheriff get the best or the young man.
Wheu the old lady saw that the son was
get ting the worst or the contest she again
intorfered. She had a kottle of boiling
water en the stove and she grabbed the
kettle and made an effort te scald the
sheriff. In her excitement the lielllng water
went evor her clothing, badly scalding hi r
legs.
In the struggle with the son the sheriffs
writ fell te the fleer. Mrs. Yako secured
possession of It and threw It In the steve.
The sheriff finally put the old woman out
of the house, ana that onded the tight for
control. After she had been ejected, men
who wero employed for the purpese re
moved the furniture from the house, and
possession was glven te Christian H. Roh Reh Roh
rer. The deputy sheriff anticipated trouble In
dispossessing these people, but did net
expect that tuey would resort te the vio
lence they useu.
Yeung Yake had a revolver in Ills pos
session and after his contest with the
sheriff he went te the hotel near his home,
exhibited his revolver and said he was
going back te the beuse te sheet the sheriff,
but he had nothing te say te Armstrong
when he went back.
Thore have been no criminal suits yet
entered, but the probability Is that Sheriff
Burkhelder will have theso partles ar
rested for Interference with an officer In
the discharge of his duty. Methor aud seu
expressed themselves as sorry for what
they had dene aud begged the deputy
sheriff net te enter any complaints against
them. He told thein that he hail no suits
te enter, but could net unswer for what tbe
sheriff would de.
The Yakes have empleyes! I. C. Arneld
te leek after thelr luterests, and he will pre
sent their petition te the court te-morrow.
He will endeavor te have the Judgment
opened, under which the writ of disposses
sion was Issued, and falling In that an
action of ejoctmeut will be outered against
Mr. Rohrer.

te a day. The pardon reduccd bis Im
prisonment exactly one year. He breke
jail threo tlmes, and the last time was re
captured through the Buzzards.
Gibsen, who was born and raised In
Allegheny county, cemes from rosectab1o
parents. He blames Jehn Frankford for
much of his trouble. When he was net
mero than fifteen years of age he and a
party of ether boys get Inte trouble by
breaking Inte a shoe Ktere, and were soul
te the Western ponltentlary. While In
that Institution be fell In with Jehn
Frankford, who was thou serving a

Frankford's sentence oxplred bofero hie.
When he was II be rated he was met at the
