There it was, in italics, half way
down the "personal" column of the
Herald, conspicuous ,only for its sin
gular and most aggravating combi
nation of letters and figures, the sole
club to the whereabouts of the game
I had been after for over a week,
scarcely resting, eating or sleeping
in my anxiety to secure the reward
offered in a heavy burglary case—
and something else..,
That "Something else." All! my
heart sank within me us I flung aside
the enigmatical puzzle before me, and 1
leaning back in my chair gave my.
self up to the gloomy reveries of the
past. Edna Dayton—how I loved
i her . ! How fair and beautiful ae a
summer's id.yi had been the week in'
which I. had met her, had loved her,
and had been told that my affection
was returned ! How well I- remem-
1 her the hitter parting—a hopeless ]
one, it seemed to me—when I learn
ed my fate from her'rather's lips, and
passed down the orown-etone steps
of the Dayton mansion, wondering
if the inclination of moneyed men
toward stone residence's was net
caused by the existence of 'a similar ,
hard material in that part of the htt
tuan anatomy known ass heart. . 1
- .I was a poor man, he said, and the
profession of . a detective was a pre-!
carious one.* His daughter loved
'One—be could not deny that- -be(
'she was his only child, and her wealth 1
and position demanded a match 'with
some 'social equal. He would ' not I
I break her heart by absolutely refus'ng '
to sanction our - engagement ; but jf
within a year I should secure a for
1 -
, tune of tWenty:five thousand dollai's
and a lucrative business, and Edna
eas still of the same mind—well, he
would consider it! -
Twenty-five thousand dollars! 'l '
grew sick at heart at the thought of
the conditions 'imposed upon whilh
I was to purchase my future hapPi-
I mess. ' Friendless, the recipient of".a
m'eagre salary, and utterly - unknown,
where was 1 to raise this amount;
and what business capacity bad I,
the son of parents who had given me
every , ' luxury, and neglected a prim..
tical education, until a crash came
i that left us homeless and in penury?
Day and night for over alnontb
I brooded over my sorrow's, andiben 1
• one dity I was aroused into renewed
1 life by the reception of a formal bpi
1 courteous note trim Mr. Dayton re-,
questing my immediate attendance
at the mansion. .
MY, feet seemed winged as I has ,
tened to the house of my beloved
1 Edna. What did it mean? Had he'
I relented"? Was Edna ~sick, or did
1 businessikiait m e 'at the pleasure OI
•
my hard-bearted censor? • I was
ushered into the library, where 'I ,
found, the old gentleman in an intent*
state of excitement pacing - the floor,
the •iwindow. -broken in, papers and
Iboxes scattered about the apartmetti
and- la safe in the coiner . broken
open. . ..:.
1 I stared, at him in amazement.
1 " You seem agitited,Mr.Dayton,"
I ventured to suggest. "
_',.
" Agitated ! agitated, sir I' I sin'
wild. Late 'last night; or early this
i morning,, burglars entered this spark,
men by means of yonder 'windnwt
and ibroke - open the safe. :When I
came down this morning I found af_-- `
'faire as they are now,and nearly . One
hundred thousand dollars in money,
bonds, and jewels gone!" • . '

been a useful one in the gospel min

who now, on this account, wears his

because I wish the candidate for

is that any reason why I should cast

A METHODIST PREACHER.
,
A young man — who - used to be en--
gaged in business in the old country,
during the palmy days, after a recent
visit writes the following: While
roaming thrOUgh the'oil country, our
interest was excited by having cer
tain
localities pointed out to us as
the place. where once stood a small
,city. •,Perhaps no of the oil re
gion shows this as much - us that sit
uated betWeeri 'Oil 'City and Titris
vide, and no place as much as Petro
leum Center. We Sand amazed - and
almOat doubt the truth Of 'our . -infor
mant when we are itold that this ib
the Petroleum Center which We saw
ten years ago. All that time, as the
name implies, it was the center of the
land-of -grease.. Snirounded as it was ,
by the-best oil producing tOuntry,it _
could not be otherwise. Vast num
bers of houies, stores, machine shops,
etc., were erected in a short time, and
'in 1808 it was a city . of3,ooB or 4,000
inhabitants. Everybody in' oildom
knew of Petroleum Center. The eity
had banks, immense hotels, large bus
iness houses - , and could boastof three
or tofu churches. The Whole - country
around the place was a eity., - lAt
night it was almost impossible to get
through the great crowd:3'of - people
collected for plea Sure. What a change! -
Nothing can be . compared to itex-
. 1.
,eept the destruction of war. Instead,
of fine residences, the ground is now
used - for-potato pitches; a road marks
the place\where the principal 'street
was; the churches yetstand, but no,
bodiremainiAo attend them. I Per-.
haps there are`D3o - inhabitants in the
town'. now. NOrth -of PetroleUm
Center we were al:own the place
where in '66 and '67 \was the famous
BenninghOff lbw There remains
not a.sign' of anything e.%'er having
been - there. As many will remember
this was one Of the best oil territories •
in, the country at that time. On the
northern 'part of this farni Was a'
small town by the-name of. Doublin..
It had. 209. inhabitants and was the
terminus of the Bennitgladrßun
railroad. Not a single house' re
mains. In fact,- one would think not
knowing any better, . that it
.Ifad
never been, cleared.. Many towns
like this have gone — the same way.
But - perhaps the next in importance
is Pithole Like Petroleum Center it'
is
_nearly . gone. When C. B. Duncan, J
.who died in Glasgow some years ago
made his will be left . to a church of
Pithole,ls2s,ooo. During . the .Legic•-
lation. which followedgm committee
.was sent to find the church. They
returned and stated that no such
:building existed, nor could they .find
any one who ever knew . of It.. The
facts are, When Mr. Duncan was in
Pithole the church : existed _in. a .
flourishing Condition. But it . had
disappeared long before the cormnit

palatial cars of the Northern Central

a rapid rate. It having rained the

running at such a high rate of speed,

watch indicating the - hour of 9:20 as
the 'time of our arrival. . . We took -
seats in the Eagle hotel omnibus, and
in a few miatites were settled in pleas-,
ant rooms, and refreshing our dusty
person, with a generous bath. We
found the proprietor, Mr. .
the right man in the right place, each
one of his guests 'seeming to think -
they were the favored one. We re- -
tired to our roonia;earlyifeeling the"
need of a )I.ight's rest, after a long
day's ride. ,
At nine o'clock - next morning we .
accepted an invitation-from Mr. and
Mrs. Anderson to a seat with them
for a driVe to the National Cemetery,
which is brit -- a few- moment's ride
from the "Diamond,"or public square
of the village. Almost: every store, '
and all the private dwellings were
decorated with sags, while evergreen '
arches bad been erected across the '
street. _
The first one -contained all the
badges of the different corps engaged
in that memorable battle; the second
contained the word "Welcome", in
large gilt letters, while the third had
crossed sabres and .underneath the
motto (that must,' have thrilled -the
heart of every soldier present who
bad participated in the Belt) "Wel
come to ihe field you won." At the
jOint where the Taneytown and Em
mettsburg roads unite with the 'Balti
more-road. stands what is - now known
as the .'.'Battle-field Hotel." _ This
house was ' , used as the out-pest for
our sharpshoeterS,'an.d as we near it
we find that , it is almost' entirely en
veloped with flags of every aizesind
description. We drOve on and soon
entered the beautiful cemetery=which
was - Consecrated on the 19th ,day 'of
'November, 1863, to our soldier dead, "
Who - fell in , that terrible thiee day's
fight. Immediately on entering.one
is struck with the marvelous neatness,
that; prevail:: while - the grounds are -
open from sunrise until sunset, and
the ;entrance_ to they - grounds is;
free, still there has not, in late •years,
been manifests disposition_to molest
or desecrate the grounds. Just inside
the entrance the eye meets the bronze
statue of Major General John F. Bey
nolds,-who was killed almost at the'
openinc , of the battle. The base is of
dark Quincy granite, about ten feet .
high, and cost $2,825. The statue i 5
east from condemned cannon,-dona
ted by`the State of Pennsylvania; it
represents the General standing with
his face turned toward that " part of --
the field on which, the enemy were ad
vancing when befell, pierced; through
the hea d with a
.minnie bullet: the
right hand holding a field! glass and
hanging by his side; the left grasps
the top of the hilt of his sword.
In this cemetery lie the , bodies of
3,564 Union soldiers; each grave;
where the name was_known, is dis
tinctly marked, the nanie, reginient
and company being cut in the lime
stone coping which runs_ along the
bead of each section of graves. Here
on this beaufifal spot, rest froin their •
weary toils, the known bodies of SW/-
soldiers from New York State,-while
'in the section set -apart for the un-
known dead, the number runs t0'979.
