THE SITE OF THE FIND IN LITIGATION
x tEFTCIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISrATCH.1
JIeadvillk, Slay 23. Pursuant to call,
about 125 unsecured creditors oftUo Dela
matera met to-day In this city, for the pur
pose of organizing for the prosecution of the
defunct hankers. Resolutions were adopted
to this effect and a fund started to defray 1
legal expenses, ex-Senator Humes heading
the list with a subscription of $100. Humes
made an Inflammatory speech, in the course
of which he remarked that ho regretted that
the old "Chlneso law," which prescribed the
beheading of insolvent bank officials, was
not in operation here. Humes also inter
larded his remarks with the epithet of thief
when referring to ex-Senator Delamatcr,
and hoped the latter would be given a taste
of the only decent law he had voted for
when in the Senate, (referring to the insolv
ent banker act of 18S9).
Humes, it will bo remembered, was the
'Z" of Lew Emery's expose, and is the man
defeated for the Senate in 1SS6 by Dclamater.
Humes' remarks were received with ap
plause, and before adjournment a commit
tee of 13 was appointed to look after the
prosecution of the bankrupt bankers, one of
their duties being to engage, if possible, the
services of Attorney General Hensel to ap
pear for the unsecured creditors before the
Supreme Court and oppose the motion for a
change of venue.
It has been learned that petitions are in
circulation protesting against the Delama
ters being tried outside of this county, and
that they arc being numerously signed.
NATUBAL GAS AS A GHOST.
The Strange Story or 'Why Its Frightened
Discoverer I-eft Land to litigants.
Ixdiasa. Pjl, May 23. A strange story of a
haunted bit of land comes from Buffington
township, this county, and the land in ques
tion -will probably soon be in court. In 1S12
on eccentric Englishman took squatter pos
session of 4i0 acres of land in that locality.,
and had he not been superstitious, his heirs
would likely now be m peaceful possession
of the land. 'When the Englishman settled
there there was great trouble. There were
fearful sounds in the woods, and when he
happened to drop a lighted twig into a spring
ii blaze sprang from the water up into his
faco and frightened him almost to death.
This was natural gas, of course, but to the
squatter, in those days of witches, it was
only an evil genius trying to destroy him.
Then the water issuing from the ground,
colored everything yellow, and when a tree
fell and formed a cross by his door, supersti
tion was too much for the man, and hastily
packing his effects, he traveled into Ohio,
w hero he disappeared. William Tomb was
next to come into possession, and v, hen the
land fell to the lot of his son, the latter
deeded the entire place to the Cambria Iron
Company. His two sisters entered suit, and
secured their two-third interest, ana then in
turn sold to J. 1'. Douthitt, and he sold to
William Amhurst, of Weavers, Westmore
land county. Then it was discovered that
the land had never been patented, and that
the original owner had loft no papers or
deeds of any sort, leaving a spook and a law
suit for the present generation. The Cam
bria Iron Company and other owners are
trying to take care of their shares in opposi
tion to several attacks, and the matter is
finally to be left to the Secretary of Internal
Affairs of the State for settlement.

THE BECHAEITES UNITED.
A Number of Seceding Lodges Voluntarily
Return to the Fold.
Zaitesvillk, May 28. About two years ago
the local tents of the Independent Order of
Beclmbltes, of this city, together with
others severed their allegiance to the High
Tent of the order and formed a ruling tent of
their own, styled the "SuprcmeTent." Their
renunciation of allegiance to the High Tent
wns because of the disagreement of certain
officers of that tent who have since been sus
pended. At a meeting of the Supreme Tent hold in
this city it has been decided to again renew
allegiance to tho High Tent, and a district
tent will be formed to take the place of the
Supreme Tent.

MEAiviiii,May28. Keports from various
parts of tho county concerning the fruit
outlook continue to grow more favorable.
Growers Irom this vicinity report a full crop

hay. The.e reportsare confirmed from other
near counties, and the probabilities are that
the frosts, oer which there was such a
scare, bai e done little damage.

"Prior to my marriage to Fitzgerald my
name was Carrie McCarrick. By reason of

traveling man and I believed him, and did
not inquire into his past life. Since our mar

PEACEFUL YICTOBIES
That's the sort of victories we are achieving daily. Strongly entrenched in a fortification which
enables us to defy every assault we wage successful commercial war upon our competitors.
Not war with the roar of cannon and the rattle of musketry, but we storm the enemy with a fire
of low figures and splendid values that forces them from the field of battle, unable to stand the
hot shot which we pour into their ranks. OUR FLAG OFTRIUMPH continually waves
in the breeze of popularity, and our trumpet-call to genuine bargains is responded to by an ever
increasing number of patrons. MdBMMMMMI,
MEN'S FINE CLOTHING.
We give first place, for the
to G. A. R. uits, in view of the near, approach
of TJecoration Day. ,
We carry an immense, stock of these, and
can furnish them at
$6.50, $8, $10 and $12.
Our Ten Dollar Suit is most popular, from
the fact that it is of very superior value for the
money. It is a suit which will give you genu
ine service for every-day wear, as well as for
State occasions. All our G. A. R. Suits are
made with" eyelet holes, and two sets of buttons
come with each suit
