On last Wednesday evening the attea-

talking and getticulatioBS ot three young

discovered that the young ladies were try

On last Thursday evening Ed. B. Baer
and Georsre R. Scull were examined bv
Judge Hall and a committee composed of
. 1 - T IT
joun iv. rxue, jsaac nugus, xu. xi. uup
pel and L. C. Colborn, Esqrg., and pro
nounced worthy of admission to the legal
profession. On Friday they were sworn
in as members ot the bar. Mr. Baer stud
ied with his uncles Wm. J. and IL L.,
and Mr. Scull was under the tuition ot
General Koontz. From the relation which
one of these J oung gentlemen holds to the
Herald, the mend who writes tnis item
will abstain from laudation further than
to say that they are bright, popular and of
good moral and business habits, and the
belief is general that they will attend to
any business entrusted to tbem with care
and ability. Mr. Scull is local editor of
this paper.
A new trial was given the fir extin
guishers on last Wednesday evening.
Some aixty boxes and barrels, filled with
combaslible materials and saturated with
oil were placed on the south end of Main
Cross street and ignited. In the construc
tion of the pile some chance had been giv
en to the extinguishers to reach the fire.
This had not been tbe case in the previous
test. The large machine was first tried,
which put tbe fire out in less than two
minutes. What was left to burn was then
relit and the smaller extingniahers opera
ted successfully in about the same time.
Tbe test was deemed satisfactory by most
of the citizens present and the Burgess
and Council bought tbe large machine,
four small ones and one hundred and fifty
feet of hose. The price to be paid is in
the neighborhood of in three annual
installments. It it not proposed to raise
the taxes to make these payments, as it is
thought a sufficient sum can be spared
from the amount now levied for borough
purposes to meet theui. A fire company,
composed of about twentv-five young,
able bodied men, is now forming. We
have great faith in tbe efficacy of the
chemical extinguishers at incipient fires,
and if ever it is the bad fortune ot Somer
set to have another fire, we believe our
citizens will thank tha borough officers for
making tbe purchase. -
Tbe lecture delivered in the Court House
by Henry Schell Lobingier, of Philadel
phia, was largely attended, and was much
enjoyed and appreciated by all present
There were three feature that tended to
make the lecture a success, at least to far
as attracting a large audience was concern
ed ' Mr. Lobingier is a ainele man ; tbe
subject of tbe lecture, "How to Make
Home Happy," is an entertaining theme,
and the fact that the public were cordially ;
invited to attend without charge. We ;
might here add that a free lecture has a
wonderful attraction lor a Somerset, ant
dience. Let us not be understood to insin
uate that oar people re penurious or cp
posed to psying for entertainments, but they
have a feeling of charity for one who en
ters the literal y field without the hope of
acquiring riches, and do what they can to
encourage him. Tbe subject of Mr. Lob
ingier't lecture was evidently a ; misno
mer, but bis bearers believing that there
is "nothing in a name," took no excep
tions to it and enjoyed it all the same.
The lecturer's oratorical powers axe fine,
his choice ot language exact, his gestures
graceful, and bis facial expressions power
luL The manner in whtch be treated his
subject showed that he had spent no little
time and labor upon it and, with the con
viction that be will im; reve with age,
we predict U he continue is his present
course, that he will some day take rank
among the noted lecturers ot . tha counts.

' Gsakd RktcbuCAX Rallt ! Accord
ine lo previous announcements, the Re
publicans of Somerset county assembled in
the Court House. Tuesday evening, zum
inst, to hear tbe issues of the day discuss
ed by that able statesman and talented or
ator. Hon. Galusha A. Grow.
The meeting was called to order by
Josian Keller, Chairman of County com
mittee. who nominated Col. John it ijJ:
as chairman of the meeting. On taking
the chair Col die returned his thanks for
the honor conferred. especially so as he
had the honor to serve in the same Con
gress that Grow and Wilmot had made fa
mous for organizing the first onslaught
aroinst human slavery. The further or
ganization was completed by selecting the
following gentlemen as V ice Presidents
Hon. Daniel StuffL Jenner ; Hon. C. C.
Musselman, Somerset ; Isaac KautTman,

On motion the chair appointed the follow

Stutzman, Salisbury : Wm. b. Morgan,
Stanton's Mills : A. F. Dickey, Friedens,
and Lou. A. Smith, - of the Meyersdale
Commercial.
The house was literally packed, ail the
available seats were taken by the first
comers and tbe aisles were tilled with the
less fortunate fellows who had to stand
during the evening. Quite a number of
ladies graced the hall by their presence
and all listened with intense interest for
tbe two hours that Mr. Grow consumed in
bis eloquent and masterly discussion of the
financial problem. The speaker was greet
ed and was frequently intermitted by the
most enthusiastic applause, and when he
bad fiaifahed the universal opinion was that
a Somerset county audience had but rarely
an opportunity of listening to so grace
ful and vigorous discussion of the political
situation.
The Committee on Resolutions, throu
their chairman. Colonel Scull, reported the
follow in e

and its promise of protection to its rights,"
is so monstrous a perversion ot tbe truth
that we can only express our amazement
the effrontery that could induce sane
men to thus place themselves upon re
cord.
Jlt'ilted, That only through a troe and
accessible ballot-box, and an honest and
fair count and return of the ballots therein
deposited, can tbe will of the people be
made manifest. We therefore call upon
all good citizens to set tbejr faces as Hint
against tbe frauds whereby those lately
rebellion against the power of tbe
Nation have secured the control of Con
gress and propose to capture the government.
JUtolttd, That in the rapidly returning
prosperity ot the industrial interests of the
country, the successful resumption of spe
cie payments, and the maintenance of the
National credit we have the established
results of a wise financial policy which, if
undisturbed, will soon restore the country
to its former happy and prosperous condi
tion.
lUmolced, Th.twe pledge ourselves to
stand to our organization until the rights
ot all men are secured, enforced and re
spected in every State and Territory in
the Union, and we appeal to all loyal
people, who were on the L nion side durinz
the.late war, to aid ns now, as then, wilh
their active sympathy and co-operation.
UffOtcta, that the nrm stand taken bv
the President ot the United States in
vindication of the prerogative of bis hich
office, meets with our unqualified appro
bation.
Hetolrtd, That we heartily endorse the
administration ot Governor lioyt, continu
ing as it does, the official integrity and
ise policy which tuts been exhibited since
the Commonwealth has been controlled by
the Republican party.
titwl ted, 1 hat we cordially approve the
nomination ot Hon. baniuel Butler, of
Chester county, as the Republican candi
date for State Treasurer, and we hereby
pledge him an old fashioned majority from
this county.
After the readmit and adoption of the
resolutions, although the hour was late,
particularly for our many country friends
present who are in the habit yt retiriaz
earlr, loud and continuous colls were
made for Koontz, Koontz, and when the
General came forward the most heedless
observer could not but have remarked the
magnetic charm that the voice ot Koontz
has for a Somerset county audience. Those
who bad listened with untiring interest to
the address of Mr. Grow had begun to get
restlesa during the reading of the resolu

Buffalo. X. T., Aug. 27. A col.
liaion aod dreadful death of a brake-
man occurred yesterday on the Roch
ester state line railroad near Sala
manca. An oil train coming over the
trestle parted ia the centre. The en
gineer ran ahead and then wailed for
the other hall of his train to come np.
While waitine another train came
thundering along, and owing ta tbe
fog was discovered too late to pre
vent a collision. Tbe engineer re
versed the brakes and with his fire
man -leaped off. The engine went
crushing into the caboose of the first
train, turning it bottom side op, down
the very high embankment, with the
brakeman, Henry Thnrstone, of Koch
eater, who was making his first trip,
nnderneatb it The car took fire, and
he perished in the names, being liter
ally roasted alive. Ilia companions,
powerless to aid him, were obliged to
witness bis death agonies, and to
hear for epwerda of 20 minutes lis
shrieks and piteous appeals. Of the
forty iron tank t ars in tbe train, only
seven remained standing, tbe others,
with the engine, going over tbe bigb
bank and beiug piled three deep.
Tbe engineer, whose name is Smith,
and lives in Rochester, had his ankle
badly sprained. The fireman was se
rioasly, though not dangerously in
jured. Tbe trestle was much dam
aged. The track has been cleared for
tbe passage of trains.
