A CESTLEXAS who "knows all about
it," and who baa tried the experiment with
success, recommends the following remedy
for bunions and corns from which so many
suffer daily : Obtain at the druggist five
or six ceuis worth of saltpeter, put into a
Dottle with sumcient olive oil to nearly
dissolve it. shake up well and rob the in
flamed parts night and morning, and mora
frequently it painful. This ia well tned
remedy.
The analysis of the rote for President
shows that the Slates which Toted lor
Governor Uarex have 143 Representative
and 4- Senators in Congress, while those
who voted for Mr. Tilden have ISO Rep

Electors represented 4,294.130 rotes, and
the Tilden Eelectors 4.131,332. Outside
ot the States composing the late Confeder
acy, Governor Hayes' majority was about
a quarter of a million.

By alate number of tbe Dayton Journal,
we are informed of the death of Mrs
Frederick Gebhart, who will be remem
liered by many of the older readers of the
Herald.
Mrs. Gebhart was horn in this county
October 12, 1X01. She was married to
Frederick Gebhart October 5, 1819. In
1K.3 she moved with her busland to Day
ton. hio, where she has ever since re
sidej. The Dayton papers pay quite a
glowing tribute to her memory.
Thet had a tough subject in the inquiry
loom this week. Moody wrettled with
him and Sankey sang with him but tbe
man seemed to despair ot forgiveness.
Finally Moody asked him what heavy sin
burdened his mind, and he confessed to
having la.-at a newspaper publisher out of
three years subscription. The evangelist
informed him that they did cot protess to
lerlorm miracles, but if he would settle
up his dues, with compound interest, and
iav for three years more in advance, al
though they could not open tbe doors of
the church to him. perhaps he might be

Another bailkoii proposed. The
latest sensation is a proposed narrow guage
railroad trom Confluence. on the
Pittsburgh and Connellsville railroad,
lo Deer Park, on the Baltimore and Onio
railroad. Hon. II. G. Davis, of West Vir
ginia, and a number ot Pennsylvania capi
talists, w ho ow n large tracts of coal, min
eral and timber lands at intermediate
points in the interior of Garrett county,
are the projectors of the proposed road.
Such a railroad would vastly enhance tbe

TnE Bedford Gazette says : "A gentle
man who was at the Centennial, informs
ut, that w bile visiting the Kansas and Col
orado building he noticed some excellent
looking corn, ot which he secured some
fifteen or twent grains. Some days ago
be discovered that a small insect, some
thing like a weevil, has been working in
the grains, going to tbe very beau. Now,
the question is, were the little destroyers
brought with corn from the west? If this
Is so it would be well enough to warn all
lersons who brought Centennial corn with
tbein not lo plain it. It will be remember
hercd that the destructive potato bug was
brought tons trom Colorado."
The B!air county hog story is explained
by tbe standard ss follows: "Squire
Lingenfeliei baa explained that wonderful
Greenfield township bog story which orig.
inally apeared in the RtgiUr. Tbe tree
was cut down on the evening of a certain
day. It was a very large tree and a very
hollow e. Here and there, scattered
through the trunk, seemed to be an acorn.
At any rale a wanderiug bog came alone
and found bis way along tbe tree until he
had worked himself some seventy teet
from the hiltt. Here he stuck fast, and as
he couldn't turn around and hadn't
sense enotth to back out, he just remain
ed w here he was until the choppers re
turned and extricated him from his close
fitting quarters. And thus a seemingly
wonderlul tale takes its proper place in
tbe ranks of tbe commonplace."

BbEATBIXO MIASMA WITHOUT IJIJUBT.
There is no exae ration in the statement
that thousand of persons residing trom
one year's end to another in fever and
ague regions on this Continent and else
where, breathing air more or less impreg
nated with miasma, without incurring the
disease, simply and onlv because they are
in tbe habit of using Bostetters Stomach
Bitters as a preventive. It has frequently
happened, and tbe fact has been amply
attested by tbe parties themselves, that
persons surrounded oo all sides by neigh
bors suffering the tortures of this shivering
and burning plague, nave enjoyed abso
lute immunity from it, thanks to the pro
tection afforded by the bitters. Nor is
that anti febrile cordial less efficacious in
remedying than in preventing chills and
fever, bilious remittents, and disorders of
a kindred type. Taken between tbe par
ozysms, it speedily mitigates their violence.
and eventually prevents ineir recurrence.
These facts, convincingly established by
evidence, appeal with peculiar force to
travelers and sojourners in malarious dis
tricts.
Robbebt. John Smith alUtt John
Clark put in an appearance at the resi
dence ot John uardner, ot Jenner twp.,
one day in the early part of last week,
and requested that be be allowed to remain
tor a few days and help boil sugar. On
Thuisday morning last while at tbe sugar
camp with Mr. Gardner's family, he com
plained of being sick and said be would
walk over to Mr. Peter Gardner's. Going
to tbe house to change his clothes, be took
trom the pockets ot the clothes of one of
Mr. Gardner's sons, one hundred and sev
enty dollars in currency and a silver
watch, with which be decamped. Coin
ing to Somerset be invested part of the
money in a suit of clothes, traded the sil
ver watch on a gold one, giving thirty
five dollars as bonus, and after remaining
about town for the greater part of a day
departed for parts unknown. Clark ap
pears to be a silly half-witted boy who it is
thought will not gc tar before be will fall
into the clutches of the law. 4 Irtlcers are
in pursuit but have as yet been unable to
apprehend him.
Since the above has been in type we
learn that Mr. Clark has been arrested at
Pittsburgh.
Fine shootino. On Friday afternoon
Mr. Frank Wright and a gentleman from
Maine, named Edwards, shot a penny
match just below town. C. O. Hurst
was chosen referee for Wright, and Capt.
Geo. W. Kimmel for Edwards, end C'apt.
Chas. J. Harrison umpire. The distance,
twentv-five feeL was measured off and
John Waterman placed al the peg lo toss
the pennies. Wright won the toss snd
hdwards toed tlie mark Tor tbe .first shot.
The score was
Edwards, 11110 0 1111
Wright, 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1
Tbe ind was very high at the time,
making shooting exceedingly difficult.
The fun used bv Edwards was a doable-
barreled, breech-loading shot gun. while
Wright used a double-barreled muzzle
loader. It any ot our readers tbirk that it
is not difficult to hit a copper while nymg
through the air at twenty-five feet dis
tance, let tbem try it. provided they can
get anyone that will toss the pennies for
tbem. and report the result. It is but
justice to say that Mr. Wright bad never
shot at penuie before, while his antago
nist has bad considerable experience at it.
Fire About three o'clock on Wednes
day afternoon last, tbe large brick resi
dence of Mr. Peter George near George's
Station, Pennsylvania Railroad, was dis
covered to be on fire. As a hiirh wind
was prevailing at the time all efforts to
subdue the flames were useless and before
a great while the once handsome resi
dence was a pile ot smouldering ruins.
Tbe fire started on tbe roof and is suppos
ed to have caught from tbe kitchen chim
ney. Starting to burn at tbe top, the fam
ily had plenty ot time uremove the fur
niture and household goods. All these
were quickly taken out, as well as most of
tbe doors, windows and shutters. Mr.
George had a lot of seeds stored in tht
garret, and apples and potatoes in the cel
lar, all et which were destroyed. Tbe
entire loss will amount to about f 3,000,
on which there was no Insurance. Lucki
ly tbe wind, which was very high at the
lime, was blowing direclly from the barn
or it, too, whould have been consumed.
Mr. George intends rebuilding immediate
ly and will use the old walls, as tar as pos
sible, which are still standing. Latrohe

On Ihe night ot the second of February,
1877. two young men by the names of
Cannon and Boucher, came from Johns
town, Pa., to Millwood, on the Pennsylva
nia railroad, and entered the carpenter
shop of Wm. Cbissinger, taking with them
nearly all tbe tools. Ioss, about ten doi-
dollars. They then proceeded to tbe store
and poet oflice of Geo. F. Austraw, where
they gained an entrance by boring on one
of tbe shutterand breaking the glass, tak
ing with tnem two mail keys, post stamp.
snd a lot of other goods, amounting to
about sixty dollars. On their return to
Johnstown, they proceeded to gain an en
trance into a store there by boring off tbe
lock, but the chief ot pal ice waited till
they got in and then closed the door on
them. He found on their persons a varie
ty of goods, amongst them the post stamp
taken from Geo. F. Austraw. who appear
ed and claimed the goods which be recog
nised by his private mark. Cannon and
Boucher are now in the Ebensburg jail
awaiting their trial, and they will be tried
before the Lniled States District uourl, by
a special agent of tbe post office depart
ment, who will place them in tbeir proper
homes . Oreentburg Democrat.
We do not like to amy that our neighbor '
of the Democrat lies like a Democratic
witness before a returning board, nr yet
like the average Democratic editor ; but
wben ne wrote tbe account ot the torch
light procession, given in hunor ol the
election of Rutherford B. Hayes to the
Presidency, he knew, (at least we'll bet a
new silk hat, high crown, cardinal red
baud and blue feather that he did), that
there were more voters in the ranks that
nigU than there arc Democratic voters in
the borough of Somerset. As tor that
fiery young Democrat who carried a
rooster in the procession, be, like every
one else that rejoiced in tbe election of
Hayes, was welcome, and if be bad become
so wedded to bis barn yard fowl, from
having seen it so often in bis home paper.
since November last, that he thought it
ought to crew for the President elect, no
one could object. It be did not come to
the ranks to rejoice with those that rejoic
ed, the editor of the Democrat ought to
know that lae best way to quiet a squall
ing bra at aot to spank it. Come, come

OacCMSBrafl baa been visited again by
tbe fire fiend. Yesterday morn ins shortly
after twelve o'clock flames were discover
ed shooting oat of the roof of tbe Sew
Opera House, aad an alarm was sounded
forthwith. Before tbe engines cot to
work tbe entire structure was enveloped
in flames, and tbe surrounding buildings
were ia( Imminent danger. Notwith
standing tbe efforts of tbe firemen, . the
ies onmmnnicated to tbe Lutheran
Cbarcb. which burned very rapidly. By
careful management tbev were confined to
tbe two buildings, which were reduced to
asbes. Tbe Opera House was built by
Mr. Xaley. at a cost of nearly Ay 000.
It was insured lo tbe amount of $16,000
13.000 on tbe building and tbe res; on
Lscenery. fixtures and furniture. On Tues
day night tbe rminarmooic hud ot uoe
ton gave an entartainment at tbe bouse,
but were fortunate enough to get tbeir bag
gage out a half hour before the alarm.
Tbe cburcb was a total loss of $8,000,
taete aesag ae iaaoiaace. During tbe
progress of the Are Mr. H. 8. McKaskey
had one of bis bands serwosly injured by
tbe tall ot a book from Ike roof of tbe
cburcb. Tbe fire originated in tbe dress
ing room of tbe Opera House.
On Sunday night while a young man
who bad been sUj im rather late with hi
lady love, was passing along the Main
sueetot Berlin, about 13 o'clock, disoov.
ere J fire in Wslker's grocery. The alarm
was sounded and assistance was promptly
rendered. It was found that the fire had
gained such headway that it was impossi
ble for the family of Mr. Walker to find
means of egress in tbe usual way ; ladders
were placed at the windows of the second
story and tbe family resetted. The flames
spread rapidly over the building greatly
endangering the property ot Mr. Kriaain-
Jer which adjoined. The goods In Mr.
oseph Henley's clothing store which was
under tbe same roof, and those in Mr.
George KrUsinger's boot and shoe estab
lishment were removed and all went to
work to subdue the flames. The fight to
save Krissingcr's property vast severe one
but the bucket brigade of Berlin came out
victorious. Walker had some insurance
on both stock and building. Mr. Heffley
has an insurance of 4.000. We have
been unable to learn what insurance, if
any, air. Knssineer had. Berlin, like
Somerset, has no fire annaratus and has to
depend on her bucket brigade in case of
ore. We hope our neighbors will have
more wisdom than hs been shown byonr
pevpie, anu make some preparations to
meet future contingencies of this kind.
Fortunately for that ancient borough the
nigui was still, there being scarcely any
wind at the time. Had tbe fire occurred
on either Fridayjur Saturday night, daring
me gsie, a great pan oi ineir town must
ot necessity have been burned.
TnE gave law. An exchange makes
some very sensible remarks on the game
iaw ui tue Diauj. wuicu we take the lib
erty of transferring to our local columns.
as the suggestions made are in the best of
taste, and apropos just now. It says that
i cvcij rawon me renusyivania Leg
islature tinkers tbe game laws. So far as
tnese laws tend to the preservation of the
game tbey might as well not be passed.
We have never known a single one of
mem to oe wonny oi me name, tor they
do not protect, but rather lead to the de
struction of game. An act that authorizes
the killing ot squirrels in July is an invi
tat ion to gunners to open the season at an
early date against all kinds of game. A
law, to oc enecuve and nsetul. must nro-
hibit the killing of any species ot earoe ud
uj, say, me j oiu oi September, ana must
punish all found huntioE prior to that
time. The hunting season for all kinds of
game should commence on a certain dav
and end on a certain day. Then there
would lie little or no game killed out of
season. How many hunters after sqirrels
in July would permit a fine, fat, full-
grown cock-pheasant to peck his eyes out?
A large majority would kill him and put
in a plea ot self -defense. We hone some
senator or Member ol the House, possess
ed nf good sense and a knowledge of tbe
habits and nature ot the various species of
game which should be protected against
wanton destruction, will trame. present.
and have passed a bill embodying the pro
vision above relerrca to.
Fire. On Friday mornine last the
dwelling bouse of Air. John Kooser, ot
Jefferson twp., was destroyed by fire. The
bouse was situated at the loot at the Lau
rel Hill mountain, and was known as the
old Jtenioru iavern Aland, it appears
that Jl r. Kooser bad gone to tbe surar
camp alaiut half a mile from the house.
while Mrs. Kooser and another woman
who lived in the same bouse, were in tbe
spring bouse just across the road, and
the twochildien were left locked in tbe
bouse. When the flames were first dis
covered one of the women ran to the sugar
camp to call Mr. Kooser, while the other
hastened to the bouse to rescue the chil
dren. The wind was blowing a perfect
gale at the time, and the names made such
rapid headway that when the woman
reached tbe house it was almost impossi
ble to get into the room where tbe chil
dren bad been left. They were at length
reached and carried out, but both died
shortly after. Both were very young, the
eldest being but five years ol age. This
is a severe blow to Mr Kooser, the chil
dren burned being bis entire family. We
have been unable to learn whether there
was any insurauce on tbe bouse. The re
mains ol the burned children were buried
on Saturday last. Mr. Kooser is well
known and well liked in the community
where he resided, and has the sincere sym
pathy of tbe entire neighborhood.
Since the above was in type we have re
ceived a letter from Mr. S. II. Cable, in
which he says : "Kooser s two children
were in t ho room in which the fire oriirin-
ated. There was a wood box near the
stove filled with shavings. It is supposed
that the children were playing with the
fire and either set fire to their clothing, or
the carpet The bodies of tbe children
wben taken from tbe ruins were burned to
a crisp. Jlr. Kooser lost everything ex
cept w hut clothing be bad on his back.
Joseph G rover, who occupied part of the
bouse, lost all bis personal property.
Neither of tbe parties had any insurance."
Ursina Items. A friend from Conflu
ence informed us a tew days ago, that a
man by the name of Boyd, residing near
bgvpt, (not ancient r.gvpt) on the Pitts
burg div ision of tbe li. & O. R. K., acci
dentally got drowned in the "Tough."
In company with two or three of hi chil
dren, the 'oldest not more than twelve
years of age, be attempted to cross; when
about midway his bark capsized and threw
tbem out ; after dinning to tbe vessel for
quite a length of time, the children were
rescued, but the father sank beneath the
waves. At latest accounts his body bad
not been found. Mr. Boyd was a soldier
during the late rebellion a member of the
SSlh Pa. Vol., and received a severe
wound, whieb caused him to be a cripple.
We have had two protracted meetings,
and the third one is now in progress in tbe
Lutheran Church. But one has come for
ward to repent of her sins. This is cer
tainly discouraging to tbe minister ia
charge, wben bearing of such extensive
revivals in our neighboring villages.
Peace and harmony reign in our town
since the great political question is settled,
and every one is looking forward for bet
ter times shortly.
We are informed that tbe Ursina school
will close with a little exhibition on the
evening of tbe 24th inst.
Quite extensive improvement are be
ing aiade in our town. Dr. Bevins is
having an addition put to his dwelling,
which be intends us.ng for a medical oflice.
J. P Miller is having his old bar room
converted into a store-room, to be occupi
ed by our accommodating merchant Lcroy
Forquer. We hope Lee will make it lively
on the corner. To describe all tbe im
provements would be too much this time.
Yours truly,
Patrot.
