The entire county is in a fever of excitement and rage over the news of one of the most cold-blooded murders ever committed in this county. The scene of the crime is a prosperous farm on the pike about ten miles east of here, near Jennerstown, Somerset county. About 7 o'clock last night, while Her&an TJmberger and his wife were seated cozily before their dining room fire they were aroused by a knock at the door. Mr. TJmberger hastened to respond, and, upon opening the door, was confronted by two masked men, who Informed ilm that they were officers. They said they had a warrant to make an investigation of his premises for jewel ry that had been stolen from a peddler in that neighborhood some time ago. The; also showed papers upon which were names of a number of farmers in the vicinity, which, they claimed, they had searched. "After considerable deliberation JMx. TJm berger finally consented to permit the search. After several articles had been searched, he opened a drawer in which lay a pocket book containing $13,000. He informed his visitors cthat the book contained nothing bat valuable papers, and placed it in his pocket. They re plied they were not after his money, but were simnly doing their dnty as officers of the law. The old lady who was with them up to this time went back to the kitchen. She had scarce v reached there when she was startled by heafingthemurderonsexclamation. "Money or your life ! " She hurried toward the room, but before she reached there a terrible death stnijrjrle was on. Several shots were fired and she rushed to the farm bell, and commenced to ring it vio lently. SbeTetarned to the house and the scume was still coins on. A moment later she heard five shots fired and then all was still. She went into the house and found the old man lying dead upon the floor. Two of the shots took effect in his body, one passing through his heart, the other making a flesh wound in his side. Death had resulted instantaneously. The villains alter securing the pocketbook contain ing the 13.000, fled into the darkness and made their escape. They were tracked in the direction of the mountains, when the trail was lost. The mur derers are described as one toeing tall, wearing a derby hat, the other being short and heavy set, wearing a slouch hat. The murdered man wss about 70 years of age, and lived all alone with his aged wife. He had been an invalid for several years, and the only reason that can be assigned for the killing is that he recognized them. His wife was the only eye-witness to the cold blooded deed, bntshe was too feeble to aid her husband. Parties are out sconringthe country, and will shoot down the murderers if caught. The whole country is greatly excited over the terrible affair. A reward of 1,500 has been offered for the arrest of the fiends. POLITICAL, ANNEXATION.
