Mr. Washington Stonebraker exlvboed a

D is an old bullet mould made of oantone,
intended to be used in casting two different
sixes of rifle balls. Twenty-fonr bn'lets ran
be cast in it at one time. On the npper side
is cut " Barney Hooker. 1737." Barney
Hooker was one of the pioneers of Ohio,
wbo had a great reputation as a scoot and
Indian fighter, and in this mould cast the
bullets that sent many a red skin to the
happy huntine ground of his race. The
mould is now the property of Mr. W. H.
Mecasline, a direct descendant of the old
Indian fighter.

one, two,' three order. The fact was forcibly
demonstrated that, when properly BMtnag
ed the engine can do very effective work,
and is a machine of much greater value and
of more account than it is generally credited
with being. We verily believe that Mr.
Weimer's buildings, as well as those adjoin

not been for tbe timely arrival of the engine.
The damage done to the building amounted
.to, about ltO, covered by insurance, while
several hundred dollars worth of personal

was also burned. Tbe fire ia supposed to
have originated from tbe flue of the bake

Ex-Sberitr John J. Spangler committed
snicide at eight o'clock Sunday morning by
shooting himself with a revolver. A thrill
of horror ran through. our community when
the above announcement was made, many
people refusing to believe it until they had
gone to the scene of the tragedy and found
that the statement was only too true. Mr.
Spongier, with his family had been occupy
ing the residence of Mrs. Edmund Kiernan,
on Main street, since shortly alter the 1st of
January .his eru of onlee havingexpired on
the first Monday of that month. About ten
days prior to bis death he was taken sud
denly and seriously ill, and for a short time
his lite was despaired of but he rallied and
although frequently complaining of feeling
very miserable, he was able to be up and
attend to business. Saturday night be
came home sick and weary and passed a
wretched, sleepless night. In speaking to
his wile of how miserable he felt he said
he wi.slir. he was dead. After getting
up in the doming be wandered about tbe
bou.se in an aimless manner, going to the
stable, iuituedia'elv iu the rear of tbe bouse,
and returning; tiieu going back to the sta
ble, he spoke to the btler. and walking up
tbe steps to the hay mow removed his hat,
hung it up carefuily. and taking a revolver
from his po -ket, placed the muzzle within
an inch of his head, and literally blew bis
brains out. The ball entered the head
tliroub the upper part of the right ear, and
.. .... t.
came out directly above toe lei l ear. ilia
wile, a armed at the report of the pistol
shot, ran to the stable and found him
stretched at full length on the bay, with the
blood and brains slowly oozing from the
ghastly wounds. He was carried to the
house, where he lived for about aa hour,
remaining unconscious to the last. The
great financial troubles which Mr. Spangler
had experienced for the past few months
undoubtedly unsettled his mind, and while
laboring under mental aberration he com
mitted the rash deed. The weapon used was
a Smith A Wesson, 3J calibre revolver of the
latest improved pattern, and was one of
those captured by him with the celebrated
Wechtcuheiser gang of burglars. His body
was interred in the Lutheran Cemetery at
Friedens, Monday afternoon. Rev. Welch
preached the funeral sermon from the
text : ' V hen my heart is overwhelmed laad
me to the rock that is higher than I." The
funeral was very largely attended, tbe
members of the Odd Fellows Lodge and of
tbe G. A. R. Post of this place, being pres
ent ic a body. Mr. Spangler as a member
of both these organizations.
John J. Spangler had bis faults, it is true,
but he was the possessor of a great, good
heart ; was genial, generous, kind, good
natured and bad " a band opeu as day
to melt In ' charity." No man within
the limits of the county bad a larger
circle of acquaintances, and be bad
many friends wbo sincerely grieve and
mourn his death and tbe manner of his
dying. He was a man of tbe greatest per
sonal bravery, and possessed of indomitable
pluck and endurance. For the past few
months he bad borne up under a load that
was heavy enough to have overcome a
much stronger man. His burden finally be
came more than be could bear ; barraased,
sick and weary, his over-strained mind
gave way, and he committed the act of self
destruction, which in his rational moments
be prohably never dreamed of. He leaves
a wife, a noble woman, and a young daugh
ter to mourn bis death, and tbe deepest
sympathy of the entire community goes out
to tbem in this their honr of sore distress
and affliction.

Editor Jlerakl: It appears that a number
of our representatives are proposing legisla
tive enactments just now for the regulating
and cnntroling of the liquor traffic, not the
prohibition of the sale of intoxicants, for
prohibition won't prohibit." Does Licence
regulate? Who has petitioned the Legis'a
ture of this Common wealth for six years to
give us a high license law. The proposed
high license scheme which you are pleaed
to call "half a loaf and think it is "better
than no bread,'- is not what the vast bedy
of christian men in Pe:insyluania have been
asking fir. They have not a-sked the enact
ment of a temperance law, nor do they de
mand a prohibitory law at the hands of the
Legislature, but have, and do ask that tle
people may vote on a prohibitory amend
ment to- tbe constitution. They ask this
because it is tbe right of the people to be
hesrd where laws are made for, and by, tbe
the consent of the g itemed. The act of
submitting suen- a pp"itiw a vote of
tbe people has nothing to do with the ques
tion, as to whether prohibition prohibits or
not. If "the strict enforcement of prohibi
tory lows is an absolute impossibility. I do
not see why that should be an obstacle
against submitting the question to a vote of
the people, or even against a prohibitory
law itself. Is the strict enforcement of tbe
license law a possibility ? Where is it en
forced ? It is violated in country districts,
towns and cities, but the prohibitory law of
Iowa, as observed by the commission of in-
qniry to wbicb you refer, "has restrained
the sale of liquor in the country districts,"
which is more than the license law has ever
done anywhere, for it has made selling easy
and drinking plentiful.
Tbe Iowa law has been in force but sev
en months, and many declare it to be "'not a
very conspicuons success." Wait until Iowa
has tried prohibition as long as we have
tried license, 'and if ft doesn't give Iowa
better citizens, better homes, and more in
telligence with less crime, and put the li
cense farce conspicuously into the shade,
then there will be time enongb for someone
to raise the bowl of failure.
Tbe high license propositions new being
discussed bv the Representatives at Harri- '
burg are an imposition on the people, be
cause the popular demand of the intelligent
people of this State has not been for high li
cense, but forthe " half loaf of bread " allot
ted to every frce.iuaa.iif A tnerica at the bal
lot box. Call high license " half a loaf "
it is more ; it is a whole loaf of poim. The
people have been treated to icac long
enough. I say give us the legislation de
manded, and we'll call it bread. The liquor
men know wbicb side of that bread is but
tered, hence their resistance. '
The testimony of a liquor organ The Re
tailer, of New York might be in place
right here The BetaUer said some time ago
concerning those temperance men who sup
port high license : " In Ohio it is wicked to
sell beer unless a man pays $200 to benefit
parties wbo donot seIl."WhaT a wonder
ful intellect it must have required to solve
so important a problem, and find tbe exact
amount required to make the selling of in
toxicants an upright and honest business.
What an immense amount of drunkenness
this DO will stop, or rather cover up, so the
temperance fanatics cannot see it ; what an
excellent poultice a few greenbacks make
when applied to tbe eyes of fanatical dema
gogues, and how it will soothe their bonor
atrieken e Misciences r
The Huh L cense Law has b en a raa;
nificen failure in a nuinH"Tthe western
state, an I amountr to nothing but a deter

Judge Furst, of Huntingdon county, render- j SeBertet leant?, ia AcCeaat WttB
ru a ueiision iusi win vc raw wuo interest I
here, as a similar question is now pending'
decision in the courts of tbis county, arisiag
in the distribution of tbe fund realized frota
the sale of tbe avertible Coal and Iron Com
pany the fund being clsined by tbe labor
ers and by the banks which hold assigned
labor claims. "
The Huntingdon case grew oat of tbe
failure in 1883 of Blaine Bros., proprietors
of the Huntingdoe Car Works. A year or
two befoie theit failure they adopted the
system girt" to their employes certifi
cates of tbe amounts due Tor labor, which
were assigned by the workmen to tbe mer
chants in exebagne for goods. Afterward
Blain Brothers would lift these certificates
with their own negotiable paper, which
would be endorsed and transferred by those
accepting Pi y-
AH the cUbing, dry goods, grocery ' and
provision dealers have held more or less of
such paper, some of them large amounts, or
were liable on it as endorsers. They claim
ed (bat iir the distribution of the proceeds
of the shentr s sale -of the firm's property
they were entitled to the preference given
to the laborers by art of assembly, and that
they slmuld be paid in full.r The matter
was before an auditor wbo. after frequent
hearings continuing through a year, decided
that when the laoi'i certificates were surrea-
dered, and new obligations taken instead.
the jireference given by law was waived or
I. iet ; that the holders stood in the position
of any other creditor, and that the money
should be awarded to the plaintiffs in tbe
executions on which the property was sold
This view was sustained, and the auditor's
report confirmed by tbe Court. Bedford Gt-utte.

SPANGLER DIVELY. At the Luther
an parsonage in Berlin, Pa., on Sunday,
Febru.-ry 8, 18S5, by Rev. J W. Pofflnber
ger. Mr. John E. Spangler and Miss Laura
J. Dively, both of Berlin, Somerset Coun
ty. Pa.
DiF.n.
Annie Lichty was born iu Somerset coun
ty, Pa., 'April 5, 1.-35. Soon after her birth
her parents moved to Carroll county, IIL
Her father died when she was 10 years of
age, leaving the mother, who still survives,
and a family of seven ch.Idren, five boys
and two girls. He bequeathed his fam
ily a good borne, a grand name, a noble.
Christian character that was indelibly
stamped on tbe mind of tbe subject of this
sketch. While in Nebraska, visiting friends
and relatives, she was married to Frank
Musselman April 12. 1ST4, and together
they started married life by purchasing a
quarter section of raw prairie in Brown
county, Kansas.
In 184 they sold their home, and having
enough of tbis world's goods to enable them
to lite comfortably, they removed to Falls
City, where they purchased their present
residence. But. alas ! in the midst of life
we may die aud after a few hours' illness
her sweet and pure life went out, and at 3
p. , January 31. 185, her earthly lite end
ed, leaving a disconsolate husband and two
small children to mourn tbe loss of a devo
'ed wife and noble mother. February 3rd
her remains were followed to tbe tomb by a
large concourse of friends and relatives.
Thus ended a life that the living would do
well to emulate. A kind disposition, a
pure and blameless life, Annie Musselman
left this werld as spotless as she entered it,
without an enemy, beloved by all.
Say, live lorever. glorluos King,

ever known in Western Penn'a.
We need but quote prices of

Body Brussels. 1.00 a yard.
These prices are without prec

advantage of the low prices now,
to recarpet your dwellings.
