Our enterprising Meyersdale contempora
ry last week uublisbed what purported to
be a report of the Poor House Investigating
Committee, but differing so materially from
the report submitted to the Court, that we
are lad to believe that tbe brilliant editor
did riot see the original document By re
ferring to the first page of this isue of the
Hebalb he. as well as the balance of our
readers, will find the report rera-irYm, as sub
mitted to the Court, together with the peti
tion asking for the appointment of the Com
mittee, the order of the Court, the number
of days each member of the Committee serv
ed, and the nnmber of miles each one trav
eled. We publish elsewhere in this issue tbe re
port of the Committee appointed by the
Court to investigate the management of the
Poor House of this county. It will not be
pleasant reading for tbe taxpayers, and yet
a casual examination of its final summary,
and of facts that are within our knowledge,
satisfy us that it is measurably unjust to the
parties implicated. It is to be remembered,
also, that like the finding of grand jury
this is a one-sided affair, tbe accused not
havingabeen afforded an opportunity either
to explain or defend against the accusations
made. For instance, tbe directors are charg
ed with not accounting .for moneys which
had not come into their bands at tbe time
of the last settlement beyond which this
report does not go but which have since
been received and accounted for ; extra sal
aries are alleged to have been paid, which
are not extra salaries while other moneys
alleged not accounted for are not lost, but
are in the hands of the County Commission
ers. But the Herald is neither the apio
gist for. nor defender ot. tbe Directors.
Wherever they have done wrong let them
be held accountable, and, if need be, punish
ed, but let no man be censured or condemn
ed on the evidence of this a parte report.
We take it tor granted that tbe parties ho.
plicated will make answer, and that the
Court will take action to redress all wrongs. !
Until then, public opinion should be sus
pended. This is but justice, and " Let jus
tice be done, though the heavens fall." I
Tbe funeral ceremonies and services held
in Somerset on Saturday in memory of Gen
Grant, were nf tnc anost aolenia and im.
pressive character.' At tbe first dawn of day 1
a salute of thirteen guns was fired from the
cannon on the cemetery bill, and at inter
vals of a half hour during the day the dole
ful cannon booms sounded, dosing with the
nsual salute of 38 guns at sunset. Tbe
streets weie thronged with strangers, and
business was entirely suspended. Shortly
after 1 o'clock a procession consisting of
members of the G. A. R., Sons of Veterans,
and Ciliaena, beaded by tbe Silver Cornet
Band, was formed in front of the G. A. R.
headquarters and marched over the princi
pal clreeteof tbe sown- and into the Court
House, where tbe services were held. Tbe
coart room was not large enough to receive
all those who wished to participate pay
ing this last tribnte of honor and respect to
tbe memory of tot Old Cwnsnanaer, and
many were forced to turn away. Tlie room
was beautifully and tastefully decorated.
Immediately ia frosrt tJaengwre at Jest ice
was a stand of beautifully draped colota.
while a portrait of Geo. Grant, earroQoded
by the stars and stripes. Bad draped m
mourning, occupied the facing of tbe plat
form. Our correspondent, " Bert," in an
other column describee toe impressive ser
vices that were held. It was services such
as this, held in almost every city, town and
village in the land, that were tbe proudest of
all tributes paid to tbe illustrious dead.

A. A. Stutzman, of Somerset, Pa., Was ap
pointed sole agent of Somerset, Fayette and
Cambria Counties, for tbe American Fruit
Evaporator. Quite a number were sold and
every one gave entire satisfaction. Fruit b
very abundant this season, and cheap. The
best thing our farmers can do, therefore, ia
to evaporate their fruit, and receive remu
nerative prices during the fall and winter.
Mr. Stutzman evaporated in 1883 oyer two
thousand pounds of trait, all of which was
sold at good prion. Following ia a letter to
the manufacturers, which fully explains
itself:

brooght ns nearly five bushels to be evapo
rated for him. We began them at noon,
(had tbe Evaporator full at the time.) enter
ed them that afternoon, and tbe result was
34 pounds dried fruii. 7 pounds per busbeL
We charged 7 cents per pound for drying
them, and after paying labor I had a profit
of for a hair days' work on the So. 2.
This work was not done as a test or as a puff,
tlie machine being operated at ita usual ca
pacity. Seven pounds dried trait from one
basnet of apples, makes apotea tl.OS per
bushel, which is more than I can get for
wheat at this time.
I ana also happy to say that all who have
purchased your Evaporators in Ibis viciartv

Somerset was early roused by the unwont-
I ed sound of booming cannon. All day the
sound couuuuej to break on the ears of the
citixena. At 2 o'clock r. at. the bell on tiie
Court House began to toll for the departed
hero. The Grand Army of the Republic
marched to the sound of music through tbe
principal streets of the town, and finally to
the Court House, which was packed with the
greatest crowd the writer has ever seen iij it,
and he has seen it so full that it seemed ab
solutely impossible for another person to
find standing-room. Fuily five hundred
persons were in town to do honor to the
" Old Commander." who were unable to ob
tain places in the Court-rootu. J. M. Cook,
Commander of t'-e R. P. Cummins' Post of
the G. A. R. read a series of resolutions, af
ter which the vast audience rose as one man
and stood with bowed beads while Rev. C.
C. B. Duncan, pastor ol the" Presbyterian
Church, offered au eloquent prayer. The
vocal music was in charge of w . H. Kup
pel, Esq., and was furnished by a choir of
ladies and gentlemen. The music was a
credit to the performers. The first address
was by Rev. King, pastor ol the Reformed
Church, and a member of the G. A. R. He
stated that the name of Grant should be plac
ed high on the obelisk of fameat least along
side that of Mittiades, and Washington, high
er than Alexander, Car, or Bonaparte. I
regret that I am unable to give in full the
burning words of this address, words that
shall live in the memories of those who heard
ihem until they have ceased to take cogni
xance of sounds, and have been consigned
to the grave.
This address was followed by mnsic. -Rest
Spirit Rest." which was magnificently ren
dered, when another address was deliver
ed bv Rev. Pershing, ia-tor of the M. E.
Church. A manly, ouispoken statement of
the character of the great man we met to
mourn. He stated that America has pro
duced three great men, men whose names
will go ringing down the ages so long ss the
world standi Names that need not the
voi -e of the orator, or the pen of tbe Histor
ian to embalm them forever in the memory
of the nations, and those three names are
Washington. Lincoln and Grant. Music.
5 When the final address was delivered by
Rev. C. C. B. Duncan a most eloquent ad
dress. Everything was done with decency
and in order. Notwithstanding tlie great
number of people in this place there was no
drunkenness, and every one seemed im
pressed by the occasion.'
Toward evening 1 walled up to the ceme
tery where tinder the orders of Herman
Cunnintrham. Eso.. was the cannon whose
notes had all day pealed over the town, and
echoed across the snrronnding hills and
vales. A cannon bad been cast which ex
ploded at the fifth discharge, and it was
supposed tbat the firing of cannon would
have to be dispensed with: but the inventive
genius of Mr. Stonefcraker surmounted the
difficulty, and the result was tbe most queer
looking piece of artillery on which tlie eye
of man ever rested. A four inch gaspipe
was taken, and another pipe put into it, in
this was placed another, and so on until
there was a two incYbore; these were firm
ly fastened together, bnt that there might be
no danger whatever, Mr. Stonebraker went
to the proprietors of the rock-crushing ma
chine below town, and obtained four huge
worn out center for the massive roll used
in this work. These centers were very mas
sive, and each was perforated with a bole in
to which a shaft bad once, been jnterted.
This hole was the exact size of the outer di
ameter of the gaspipe cannon, which was
placed in it, the whole bolted immovably
together by inch and three-quarter bolts of
tough wrought iron, secured by massive
nuts, on a heavy thread. Such a gun I pre
sume has never before been seen, and likely
will never be seen again. The writer sug
gested that this eun be suitably labeled and
expressed to the Smithsoniau Institute at
Washington, D. C He also at the request
of several citizens sent a note requesting Mr.
Brooks, a scenic photographer to come and
take a view of the gun and surroundings,
which was done.
At length a drizzling rain came on the
sun sunk in clouds behind the western hills
citizens retired to their houses and the day
set apart for the obsequies of "tbe foremost
man in. all this world'' was ended.

and disadvantages. A, resulting from the
construction of a railroad through their

of the laws of Pennsylvania, for the sale of
tbe franchises of tbe same ; and tbat, with 1
tbe avowed knowledge and purpose of tbe
majority stockholders and officers in both
contracting companies, that the negotiation
is entered into for tbe purpose of preventing
tbe completion of the South Penn. Ii. R
