popular with our farmers, and promises
in the near future to increase in magnitude.
Whilst driving a horse in a hay rake on
Friday afternoon, Mr. Harry Boyts, of Som
erset township, met with a very painful ac

j.vt in the field and became unmanageable.
Mr. B-yts was thrown to the ground, and
the forks of the rake caught fast in his cloth
ing. He was dragged some distance, and
was badly battered and bruised before he
was released from his dangerous position.
F.-r a while it was feared his injuries would
result fatally, but at present he is rapidlr re
covering, and hopes in a few days to lie able
to resume work.
The commissioners of Fayette county
have published a notice that on July 15th
they will withdraw the $3,000 reward clTcr

Capt. P.. J. Linden, who worked up the ev
idence leading to the conviction of Patrick
Dolan, now in the H-nitentiary, testified
during tlie trial that Pinkerton's detectives
never work for rewards, and accordingly he
laid no claim to the &i,"00. As no one else
has ever put in any claim, the commission
ers have decided to withdraw the offer.
It may not be generally known that salt
is an excellent preserver of timber from dry
rot. The props and galleries of the great
salt mines in Poland and Hungary are found
to endure for ages without any apparent de
cay. Wooden pile driven into salt marshes
lost far longer than thone driven into fresh
water mud; and experiments have hocn
made which show that dry rot may even he
checked after it has begun, by immersion of
the infected wood in salt waer. In many
countries the custom prevails of soaking
lop. iii the sea before sawing them up, cs
ixtially logs of hard timber, such as oak,
elm, and ash, with a view to mnder the
wood more durable.
A new swindling giiiue has just been de
veloped In Allegheny county. A nice young
man calls on a minister or a church mem

student who is selling bibles. Heexjs-ds to
sell s great mauy in that neighborhood and
ask the privilege of sending them to the
gentleman's house, and akks him to receive
the price as the bibles are railed fir. A a
remuneration he agrees to allow lite gen
man to retain one dollar of the 4
each bible. This seems fair, and lh gentle
man is asked to sign two duplicate contracts
as an agent. Each party keeps a copy and
the nice young man goes away. No bibles
everj come to hand, hut in tlie course of a
few weeks the gentleman is notified that a
note for 4300 or $22- is in some broker's
hands, and will soon be due.
fine of the medical journals, in referring

which appear to him to be most worthy of

Wages," by Charles W. Elliott, is a forcible
statement or one of the most urgent prob
lems of our time. The author sees no ad
vantages to be derived from the employ
ment of woman in man's work, whether of
brain or of hand; such employment, he in
sists, only reduces man's wages, and does
not really add to the total resources of the
whole das of workers. In a highly inter
esting 'may on "The Ethics of Gambling,"
0. B. Frothingham analyzes the passion for
play with rare ingenuity. "The Remuner
ation of Public Servants," by Frank D. Y.
Carpenter, gives matter for serious consider
ation, both to the civil service reformers and
their opponents. Finally, there , is a paper

Whether the popular mind, or not, is sa
tiated by the year's proceedings following
the assassination of President Garfleld by
Guitcau; the enormous bills of the doctors,
at which congress seems to object; the trial
of Cuiteau, his defence, his lawyers, bis con
viction, execution, burial, and autopsy,
wherein there was, as in all phases of that
shocking affair, a difference of opinion, it
would seem that now is the proper time to
conclude the whole business. But yet there
is anq,ther aspect to the case, as announced.
Drs. Hartigan and Sowers, to whom Dr.
Lamb, while he consigned the brain of
Guitcau to their charge, and autopsied it
without their concurrence, declare that they
have their report ready for publication. To
what end, for either the advancement of
science or the benefit of the public are these
unseemly disputes among the professors of
the so-called healing art. Despite their ad
vice and attendance the President died;
they were confessedly at fault as to his in
jury, and the sentiment of confidence which
hitherto reigned in people generally, in ref
erence to the infallibility of the profession,
received a shock that it will take at least a
generation to alleviate. The world moves
on. The death of men, either by crime,
due process of disease, or age, is inevitable.
The living have to brace themselves to the
emergencies ot the situation and meet the
stern and always inexorable duties of life.
Let us hope, therefore, that all the sad his
tory of wrong on the one part and grasping
avarice upon the other, shall he relagated to

A Cosst iexcf.-Smittkx W bitch. We take
the following account of the attempt to
commit suicide of the self-confessed mur
derer of J. Marshall Mitchell from the Con-
ncllsville Courier. At the hearing in Som
erset two weeks ago, it was the general be
lief of those who saw Roach and heard him
on the witness stand that his conscience
would give him no rest, and that he would
before long make another confession or take
his own miserable life, which he forfeit
ed to the law by his foul act some ten years
ago. The following shows that they were
correct in their surmises :
On last Tuesday evening, about half jwst
eleven o'clock, the aceful little Tillage of
Indian Crock was wrought to an unusually
hight pitch of excitement by an attempt on
the part of a conscience-stricken individual,
named John Roach, to commit suicide. It
will be remembered this same Roach had
a hearing at Somerset last week on a charge
of murder, based on a confession made to a
police tifflocr in New Jersey some time since,
mention of which was made in the Gu t
ieb's last issue. The facts in relation to the
attempted suicide are these: At the time
mentioned above one oi the pight watch
men, while patroling his heat, discovered a
man sitting on a rock in the river, at a point
just above the telegraph office, whom he
u;.jxjed to be a fisherman. Upon accost
ing him the man began throwing stone
and swearing iu an excited manner. The
watchman, desirous of knowing something
further of this man of strange conduct, af
ter much coaxing induced hint to come
Mkhitr mamirintir liim tie voiil.t meet m-ith
; na .... . r m . !nM.t!on
he was found to be almost nude, havln:
torn his shirt in strips and wound them
tightly around his neck, and his hat and
shoes were missing. After some interroga
tion by the a tch man, he repeated the story
of how he and a confederate lihd done a
man to death in I'rsina years a3, and that
the ghastly face of the victim, though hid
den from the rest of the world in an ob
scure grave near where he was so foully
murdered, still haunted him until life was a
burden too grievous to be tiornc; that he
was weary of the world, and that he would
quit it before the dawn of another day.
When he finished his story he broke away
from his auditor, ran to the river bank and
I n almost dying condition
He recovered
however, and was allowed to depart on
Wen.ies.lay morning, since when nothing
has been heard of him. Roach's mind is
undoubtedly shaken, probably by the re
membrance of his crime committed long
ago, and there is every reason to believe that
if be lias not already done so he will assur- j
edly take his own life, and, although jns-1
tice through the mediuu of the law has !
failed to reach him. his self-destruction will
prove tlie truth of the old ada-e "Punish- Think of it '. Men's full st.k, lialf dou

The Chicago 77 recently published a j Pir: rarPrt slippers 31 n": infant's
lengthy article on the condition of thecrops
for the pre-ent yer.r, from which the follow- J - renu lr P""""- tarpcsi. t ne.ipi
in'g .snrnmari7.r?tatemeni is taken : The 194 lrt"on of shoes in the county
corn cnip oftfie 1'nited States in was jJ re.ived at PaiiK:. Xowag's cheaptore,
1.5.T7..W.UI0 baliels, which was a slight re- i Irlin, Pa.
dnctiori from the crop of the previous yar. j
In ISM the crop fell to I,194,9I,liOO bushels To Fasmfss. We t now taking or.!ers
a reduction or one-fourth and dispatches for Caugh & Son's Double Eagle Phosphate
indicate that It might be as erious as that j tor all seeding at 3 per sack of 5i pounds,
thb year, which would cut it down to about or feM per ton of ten sacks, on track, Sora
fX),0u0,0 bushels but it may Dot be as bad j erset Station, or at onr ware house. The
as that.
Wheat prospects are much more encoura
ging, though they are not all that was hop
ed for early in the season. There is consid
erable reduction in tlie acreage of wheat in
Iowa, Wisconsin,' and some parts of the
fast State, and' in Dakota and in Nebraska,
there has been a large addition to the area.
The same is true of 'sorr.e other localities.'
rn Iowa and Wisconsin, what wheat there
is is promising well. In Wisconsin the
crop will be larger than last year, but in
Iowa it frill not be large, tne gain in (ie
State being an onset to the lta in the other.
Lst reftr the. lrheat ctod ofhowa was over
eighteen million bushels, or about half
wket It was in IS. ThiU year it will prob
ably be somewhat less than last year. In
Wisconsin the wheat crop aras nearly 1
ut3,oui boahels last year, a small gain over
J8S0, and this year it may ga up above ao,
0Q0.0U0 buabel. In Illinois the wheat crop
last year was 2ti,s2J,SUl bwhels, or barely
one-half what it was the year before. This
year the indications are that tlie crop will
exceed that of last year, and mayainount to
30,000,000 bushels, bat a good deal depends
on the luck the farmers hare in harvesting,
for the wetness of the ground delays work
and compels the cradle to be used instead
of the machine in many cases. Nebraska
last year produced a little less than fourteen
million bushel of wheat, and this year
promises to go two or three millions above
SS,OUo.OOo last year about 31,.j00.00o bushels.
This year it will exceed the crop of last
year, and may reach nearly the figures of
two years ago.
In Missouri corn is in fair condition, aud
will probably Tield about what it did last
year. It may yield more. Wheat is very
promising. The crop last year 20,OOn,,0X
bushels, was about two-thirds of the crop of
two years ago, and the crop this year may
attain the dimensions of that of 1&S0.
In Minnesota the crop last year was larger
than that of two years ago. This year the
crop will probably not vary greatly from
3.5,Oliu,X) bushels as produced in 1SSI.
Corn in Illinois last year was not much
more than half the crop of 1S79, and this
year it is almo&t'oertain to be much below
what it was last year.
The same is true of corn in Iowa. Even
; in Indiana where bad weather has had the
least effect, the crop will not be so large as
last year.
In all these States rye, oats and hay are
with rare exceptions iu various localities
uncommonly promising. In most places
these crops will be larger than ever before.
In Kansas the wheat harvest is nearly
over, and the crop is estimated at thirty
million bushels, or more than fifty percent,
in excess of the crops of the last two years.
En. Herald. Why is there no school in
Confluence this summer? is a question so
frequently asked that a word of explana
tion seems to be in place just now.
Last summer the building of a new school
house was commenced, and by fall the
house was far enough advanced to be used
for school purpose during the winter. Not
long ader the close of the regular term of
school Prof. A. C. Holbert, who taught the
principal school during the winter, opened
a graded school in the same building, which
was to continue five months, but after teach
ing a few weeks the doors were closed, and
what promised to be one of the largest
schools of the kind ever taught in this place
came to a sudden end.
About this time an arbitration was arrau
ed between the contractor for the building
of the house and theschool directors for the
settlement of all matters or disputes arising
out of the building of said house, which
terminated in a formal delivery of the
house to the school authorities of the place
at a price fixed by the arbitrators.
It was supposed by all that as soon as the
house became the property of the borough
in fact, that the doors would be ojiened at
once, so Ihat Prof, Holbert aould resume his
school, but some six or eight weeks have
since passed away and nothing has been
done in that direction, nnich to the disap
pointment of those who wish to give their
children the benefit of an education. There
seems to be no excuse for this unnecessary
delay. The old school house has been con
verted into a carpenter shop, thereby for
feiting the title t the same, as the ground
was donated for school purposes only
Confluence, July 12. X.
FbOM CoM-LfKXi.E.
John Stahl.of Simerset, on the 11th inst.,
was instantly killed by a falling tree, uls.ut
five miles south of this place under circum
stances as follows: James Bowliu, a young
man of about twenty -three years of age,
was engaged in felling a tree in reach of the
public road, and when the tree was a'ootit
to fall he heard the clatter of wheels, and
looking in that direction saw a man ap
proaching in a buggy. He instantly called
to him to stop, hut the man came on as if
unconscious of any alarm and drove under
the falling tree, and he and his horse were
instantly killed. It is raid that Mr. Stahl
was defective in hearing and sight, on ac
count of age, which will account for the
singular circumstance. Mr. S. was well and
favorable known throughout the county on
account of his moral rectitude and noble
Christian character, and whjie his friends
deeply regret thp circumstance of Lis death,
he has gone to the reward of the jivt, and
they have the sympathy of tlie entire com
munity. X.
Mr. Stahl was the father-in-law of Messrs.
J. JJ. Snyder and JI. C. Beerits, two of our
most promineut business men. His re
mains were brought to Somerset on the mail
train ou Wednesday afternoon, and after
funeral services held at the lute residence of
the deceased, were interred in the cemetery.
