The annual meeting of Ilia beard of
managers of the Ann 0. Wltmer Heme for
Widow and A Red Maiden Ladle, of
Lancaster, was held at the home en Mon
day afternoon and Mr. W. M. Nerln,
president or the beard, read the following
repert:
It is with no small satisfaction, that as
the beard of managers of the Ann O. Wlt
mer Heme meet en this, the anniversary
of the foundation of this institution, te re
port, in its management, the work of the
Mrst year and present at the same time te
our citizens, te whose benevolence it be
longs, the condition of Its affairs. Our age
is truly one of rapid progress in the ap
pliance of the elements of nature and the
principles of science and art te the service
of man; and naturally as cities and com
munities we are vleing with each ether in
the attainment of the highest perfection in
all that relates te the material Interests of
mankind. But Christianity is ever en the
alert te raise above all these perishing inter
' ests the enduring monuments of Christian
love and philanthropy, whose Influence se
ennobles and returns te bless in the beauti
ful heaven-born qualities of heart and mind
which it inspires and dovcleps. Truly is
the exercise of love and mercy "twice
blessed, for it blesseth him that gives and
him that takes." Hew cheering te the
watchman of the yet dark night of the
world's redemption te boheldthe rising up
of the noble Institutions of our day l We
have many In enr own midst of which we
may well be proud, and In whose history
we may take ceurage and learn lessens of
faith, self-sacrifice and pationce.
Within the time of my residence in Lan
caster many noble workers In lis objects
of benevolence have finished their labors
and gene te the blessed reward of theso
who bave served their Lord. Prominently
among them I knew you will all Jein me,
heart and soul, in tribute te the sacred
memory of Miss Mary Bewman, whose
untiring labors,seen and unseen in her day
and new carried en by ethers, continue te
comfort and bless. At the east end of our
city stands that noble monument of her
work, the Children's Heme. Toher name,
as a kindred spirit, I would add that
of ene still living, Miss Mary Bryan,
whose borne we are proud te claim
was Lancaster, and where for many
years she devoted herself te its
work of benevnlence with that unllagglng
zeal and luber she transferred te anether
home In the western part of our state, where
she still lnbers,a burning and shining light
In the Christian world. Were- this thotlme
and place we might proudly and gratefully
speak of the many neble women new for
warding Lancaster's numerous objects of
benoveionco. I have been led te speak of
theso mentioned as "footprints en the
sands or t Ime" that may stimulate and on en
courage us as we stand at the threshold
e' a new enterprise in our city's
Christian work. The appointment of
trustees by the court te execute
the will of Mr?. Wltmer regarding
the Heme for Vldews and Aged Maiden
Ladies of Lancaster; the organization of a
beard of managers for the home, the fram
ing of a constitution and by-laws was all
fiubllshed as the several mevements
ransplred and need net be repeated In my
report. The amount bequeathed four
thousand dollars had by May, 1889, grown
te eight thousand, which was the sole caplt il
en band te begin the work designed in the
bequest. In June,18S9, a beautiful preperly,
susceptible of such enlargement and
adaptability te its purpose as was deemed
necessary, was purchased by the trustees.
A story was immediately adjed te the
building, followed by the renovation of
the whele house. As a beard we well
knew hew much devlslng and arrang
ing was preliminary te opening the doers
of the Wltmer Heme, fully equipped for
the beautiful mission designed by the
tender theughtfulness and generous Im
pulse of its benevolent projector and
feundress. By Nevember 1st, 1889, the
addition te the heuse and the painting and
papering being completed, a matron was
selected and employed. The beard of
managers then turned te the citizens of
our city in an appeal for aid in the furnish
ing i f the home. This was responded te
with a liberality, and Interest which. If an
earnest of the future of the home in the
hearts of the eople of our city, we as a
beard need net falter In that trust, which
Inspired us te open and start this institu
tion in the faith or their Christian spirit
and liberality. The entire house, I may
almost say, 'lias been furnished by the
ladies of l-uneasler with a generosity and
geed taste, that new, as a completed
thing, it presents a beautiful and attractive
interior, embedying all the external fea
tures of comfortable and pleasing home.
Although thus far fully prepared te re
ceive inmates, and open the Ann C. Wit
mer Heme, our income was felt Insuffi
cient te meet the current exponses
of the institution for the few inmates in
immediate prospect. This dictated as a
temporal- measure the taking of boarders,
Cut sucu eniy irem among mose apply
ing who would meet ill their circum
stances the essential particulars that
mark the design of the institution and
thas in no way perverting its intention.
We have found the measure se far te have
met the desired aim and in every way en
tirely satisfactory, but it is the design of
the beard of managers te discontinue the
admission or boarders, if the reasons of the
measure be removed by the liberality of
the community, se seen as thenumboref
permanent inmates received shall require
the room new occupied by them.
We new have five inmates and flve
boarders; in this number we have almost
already reached the limits of our accom
modation in rooms, of which we must here
speak as being all alike, particularly pleas
ant in our building in their beautiful out
look, from every point of the compass, ever
the charming country within the range of
vision in this "West End." With all our
expenditure in the picparntionefthe Heme
and the income necessary fonts working
since its opening, we find ourselves finan
cially in satisfactory condition for this our
nrsl yeir. as a uearu ei managers we
gratefully acknowledge the warm and gen
erous response of our city en donation
day, at Christinas, and the continued man
ifested Interest in the report of the matron
each week of some remembrance of the
Institution by some of its friends. The
home is open te visitors every Thurs
day afternoon. We invite and urge
our citizens te come see It and be bo be
ceme acquainted with its management,
through which we shall hope te enjoy
their approval and confidence and se com
mand its interest te their benevolence.
This new Christian work in our midst has
been founded by one of Lancaster's es
teemed women, but it new stands before
our city, in all the force of its claim and
beauty of Its mission, for permanent estab
lishment and support. The beard is new
making their appeal for annual subscrip
tions, which must be mainly our support,
until these anions us. or elsewhere, liber
ally inclined and blessed with means, may
remember the Institution in such gener
ous bequests, or, better still, following the
advice aud example of the noble philan
thropist, Andrew Carnegie, during their
lives se endow it as te secure beyond all
anxiety or its friends and- managers the
necessary income for its support and
maintenance. A review of the work
and results of the first year Is auspi
cious of all Imped for by its friends.
It is undertaken In the filth of
that Christian culture in our midst,
which will welcome this needed institu
tion and take it under Its festering cure.
Will this be realized T Let our citizens
say.

THE TOBACCO MAUKKT.
Eight Hundred Cases geld During- tbe
Week-Packers Pleased With
the New Crep.
The sales ofleaftebaoco in old goods the
past week aggregate about 800 case.
Nearly all were by city dealer te New
Yerk packers. The only sale from the
country reported I a packing of 37 case
of M. G. Pelfer te Walter Kendlg.
There are still a few buyers In the county
picking up scattering let of tobacco, but
about all that can be purchased ha been
bought. Of the unsold crops of geed to
bacco buyers say that they cannot afford te
pay the price asked and the peer tobacco la
net wanted at any price.
A few of the warehouses have finished
packing of tbe 'HO crop, and at the ethers a
large force of men is t work, getting the
work boxed as rapidly as possible. Tbe
packers ss a rule are of opinion that the
'89 crop will turn out all right and net
them a handsome profit.

The rash In the market Is still for Suma
tra. About 1,600 bales were cleared off the
old stock the past week. Seed leaf Is given
completely the cold shoulder, beoausebuy beeausebuy
era are straining their utmost credit te lay
in a stock of Sumatra te last them for two
years te come. At least In our market,
which rules the country, tbe enly visible
and tangible effect of the prospective $2
duty has been a general scramble for Suma
tra and a total ignoring of the seed leaf.
"Even the Havana market Is suffering un
der this rush for " the foreign Interloper."
This proves conclusively that our manu
facturers de net take any stock in tbe pre
dictions that the $2 duty will Increase the
price of the domestle leaf; otherwlse they
would Just as well provide themselves with
a supply of tbe domestle stock at current
firlces as they de with Sumatra. The neg
ect of the Havana shows the tendency
the manufacturers will pursue when the
92 duty gees into effect. Tliey will then
cut down en everything except the wrap

Frem the Tobacco Leaf.
The past week did net show the activity
in the handling of leaf tobacco which has
existed for several weeks past. Tbe truth
Is, the particular kind of stock needed is
net in stnre, nor can it be found. It is
hoped the crop of 1889 will give rellef.
Sumatra Sales are very active. In fact,
the demand is elegant, while prices are
held firm.

TRAGIC FATE OF A YOUNG MAN.
He Is Crushed Between and a Car and a
Platform at the Freight Warehouse
William Buffington, a young freight
brakeman of the Pennsylvania railroad,
met with a horrible death at the freight
warehouse of the company In this city
Monday evening.
The young man was attached te a train
drawn by engiue Ne. 1,383 last evening,
which was going west. The train stepped
at the freight station te take en seme cars
and Buffington went back te de some
work. He was en the south side
of the waroheiiBO plalf.irm, and tt
tempt! te sand between It and
the platforms. The space Is net large
enough ler a man, and when the train
pulled out Buffington was caught and
rolled along, having the life squeezed out
of him. Several of the warehouse men
and ethers wltnessed the accident and they
succeeded In having the cars stepped, but
net until tee late. They ran te where
Buffington was and found that he was yet
alive. A stretcherwas sent ferte the station,
but by the time it arrived the young man
bad breathed his last. The body was
placed upon the stretcher and carried te
the bsggage room in tbe station.
Corener Uenaman was notified and Boen
arrived with Br. Beienlus, his physician.
A Jury composed of James F. Bewers,
Geerge W. Eaby, J. O. Stolnhauser, Jehn
Fitzgerald, Charles Sltnkman and Jacob
Erisman was tmpannclled. They viewed
the body and Dr. Beienlus made an
examination of il. He found that the
left arm had been broken while the right
one was almost tern from the body. The
ribs and spine were broken and the pelvis
bone fractured. After being in session a
short time the Jury adjourned te meet in
the court heuse at nine o'clock this morn
ing te take the testimony of the men who
were working en the train with Buffington.
The deceased was net mere than twenty
five years of age, and his home was in
Harrisburg. where he leaves a young wife
and a mother who has been a widow for
several years. He had been working for
the railroad company for several months,
but was net acquainted en this division, as
the trip which cost him his life wastbetirst
ene he had made. The body was shipped
te Harrisburg en Western Express at 11:10
last night.
TrtE ronejKii'a inquest.
At nine o'clock this morning the Jury
met in tbe coroner's oflice at the court
heuse wben the testimony of the railroad
empleyes was heard.
Jehn W. Derwart and bis son, Emanuel
C. Derwart, two men who are employed at
tbe freight wareheuse by the railroad com
pany, saw the man losehls life. Their evi
dence showed that he was standing
en the front platfern or the car
which was belng slowly backed in en the
siding and had net been cut loose from the
ethor part or the train. When the car came
near the platform Buffington Jumped off
and ran in between the car and platform.
He seomed te be trying te push the car
along. Emanuel Derwart saw his danger
aud called te him te be careful. The brake
man saw his danger and turned te go back.
As he did se lie was caught between the
slide iron of the deer and the car and
rolled around several times. Theengincer
was at ence signalled and as be stepped tbe
train the brakeman foil te the ground.
Aaren Hauensteln, conductor of the train,
testified that be told the young man te get
en the front platform of the train and apply
the brake when it was time and he (tbe
conductor) would cut the car off. It was
net necessary for the brakeman te jump off
and push the car or te get into the place
where he was killed. The conductor could
net understand why the man get off Iho
bumper. Samuel Kautz, onglneer; Martin
Geff, flagman ; Isaac R. Johusen, Ureinan :
G. W. Leman, brakeman, and David
Smeltz were examined, but their evidence
wasenlv corroborative. Thelurv rendered
a verdict of accidental death In accordance!
with these tacts.
The ethor men en the tiain did net seem
te be very well acquainted with Buffing
ton. They knew that he lived in Harris
burg. but he bad never run ever this divi
sien ueiere, si least, te tneir Knowieuge.
He was a very willing worker and seemed
anxious te learn. He was but 23 years of

BEATEN BY AI.TOONA.
A Game In Which Vmplre Tayler Was
a Decided Feature
On Monday afternoon the Alteena base
ball club made Its first appearance la Lan
caster, and owing te the net that Mauager
Zoclier, Gibsen and Hahn. of the club, are
Lancaster boys the people hare a warm
footing for them. There was falr-slied
audlence present.
Fer the most part the game was quite
Interesting and the principal feature of it
was the umpiring of Tayler, This tnau
may mean all rlght,but If ha doe,he knows
nothing. In the eighth Inning yesterday
Gill was doing some splendid work, lie
stele down te second easily and made his
way te thl rd In the same manner. He was
en the bag before Aloett had tbe ball, yet
Tayler declared htm out. The mistake of
the umpire was se apparent that people
could scarcely belleve It when Gill was
called In. After that the crowd made It
very het for the auburn-haired man.
There is no doubt that the decision had a
bad effect upon tbe game, as far as the
Actives were concerned, for their number
of runs would surely nave boeu greater
bad it net been made.
Davis started out te pitch for the home
team, but the visitors were net long in get
ting their eyes en the ball, which every
one of them pounded in three In
nings, and did net let up until they scored
nine runs. Davis, wss then sent te the
bench, and young Snyder took bis place.
A step was put te the run getting at ence,
as but three scattering bits were made off
Snyder, and they were no geed for runs.
Jenes, the best pitcher of the Alteena, was
In the box and tie was net hit se hard until
tbe latter part of the game. In the third
Inning the Altoenas soemed rattled and
two of the runs of the Artlvowere scored
en four error with ene ball. Tbe Lancas
ter contingent of the Alteena did geed
work, Gibsen leading the club with the
stick.
In the third inning Cress, the home short
step.was hurt and had te be taken off. GUI,
who was ou the ground In a citizen's suit,
quickly denned a uniform and he played a
geed game te the close The full scere was

MYRIADS OF WORMS.
FARMERS BBfDaT THEIR GRASS FIELBS

They Attack Timethy nnd Art or Kattiig
Atl Day Pans theNlft-htlnthoGreund.
Where They Arts Numerous,
Farmers from the southern and eastern
ends of Uiis county report that a peculiar
worm has made Its appearance In their hay
field. The irrass, especially timothy, Is
being injuredsomewhst by tilts pest.
Dr. 8. 8. Rathven says that "the Insect
that was se destructive te the grass years
age was a species of leucanta, allied te the
common 'army worm.' Paris green, or
Londen purple, applied In the usual
luanner, I suppose would Imi effectual,
" Admonish the farmers te send speci
mens of the worm te the agricultural de
partment at Washington city. This Is all
I can say without seeing the worm,"
MenK about tub rRsT,
Frem the Philadelphia Recerd,
The tribulations which lioset the farmers
of Southeastern Pennsylvania seem te be
legion, The potato bug is plying his relent
less trade, the English sparrow threatens the
fruit blossoms, the fly Is getting in its work
en the wheal, ihe cut worms are preparing
te fatten en the sprouting cornstalks. anJ
the grass fields, whero lay about all the
farmers hope of raising the mortgages
which are becoming unboarable, are new
attacked by myriads of little worms.
These latest and nowest pestiferous insects
made their debut almost simultaneously
In Berks, Lancaster and Schuylkill counties
about a week age. Their appearance was
very sudden and the farmers are naturally
much worried about their tlmethv fields.
The worm resembles Iho "army-worm"
in appearance, and Its method of oieratlen
is nearly similar. They are about thrco thrce
eighths of an Inch long, very slcnder, of a
light gray color, and are net covered with
hair, as are caterpillars. They go Inte the
ground at night and when It Is cold, but
emcrge as seen as the sun warms up the
ground. Then they crawl te within a
quarter of an Inch of the top of the blade of
Sraas, twine tlioniselves around It and stay
lere all day, They attack nothing but
timothy grass, se far as the farmers have
been able te ebserve. Neuo have yet been
found en the grains or clevor. When they
get into a field they apjiear by the millions
and cover the whole of it. On an avorsge
there are four worms te every live blades
of grass, aud seldom mera tbau one worm
en a stalk.
These strange Insects have appeared near
Bcwmansvllle, Lancaster county : In the
neighborhood of Pert Clinten, Schuylkill
county, and In the nerthern and the eastern
portion of Berks. Oley township, Beiks
ceuntv. which Is supposed te be the
wealthiest township in Pennsylvania, Is
larticularly unfortunate in suffering from
these worms, which have taken possession
of the grass fields, aud show no signs of do de
parting. Cyrus T. Fex, of Readlng. secretary of
the Pennsylvania. Htate Association of
Agricultural socleties and nn authority en
questions relating te pestiferous bisects,
said yesterday that he knows no plan for
Iiieveuting Its ravages. They have net
leen seen in this slate for at least twenty
years; then they made havoc In the grass
Holds In seme portions of Southeastern
Pennsylvania. Mr. Fex said that they are
very peculiar In their habits, and may
literally cover a Held at sundown, and net
ene can be found the nexl morning or evor
afterward.
The farmers are Tearful lest they attack
the growing wheat and eats, and destrey
theso crops as well as the bay. As yet net
much damage has been done, for the worms
have net been at work long oneiigh. It is
said that the cows and horses anu sheen in
tbe pasture fields are greatly annoyed by
the worms and rofuse te feed upon 'the
grass se long as they remain en it.
