of its contents and went through a number
of trunks that were left there by passengers,
taking from them everything of value they
could find.
Mr. Andrew Houpt, one of Somerset's
oldest citizens, is lving in a critical condi
tion. While going borne one day last week
he slipped on the icy pavement, sustaining,
it is feared, internal injuries which will re
sult in his death.
Mrs. Husband, wife of Mr. David Hus
band, died at her home about one mile
northwest of "town, last Wednesday night.
She had been suffering from heart disease

of his wearing apparel and some valuable
jewelry was taken.
An exchange says it is a common occur

Here is a simide remedy worth remember

the nose.
A dispatch Crom Huntingdon to tbe daily
city papers, says that there are more bun
per and suffering among tbe poor of that
city than ever before in its history, and that
tbe recent cold spell has brought to light
many cases of destitution. There bas been
scarcely any work for laboring men who
have no regular employment. The relief

ly broke it open. After beating the old man
in a terrible manner tbe? took from him
what money he had, and left. The robbers
did not get a very heavy hanl, as Mr. Rob
inson had his wealth mostly in notes.
Two hundred Hungarians were encamped
at Rock wood for several days last week, in
cars belonging to the Balto. and Ohio Rail
road Company. Tbey came from Baltimore
and were on tbeir way to the coke regions,
to work for H. C. Frick & C: At Conflu
ence it was learned that in the event of their
landing at Connellsville trouble would en
sue between them and the strikers, and it

ing them on board on a siding. Confluence
people objected, and the train was run back
to Rockwood. While at Rock wood, tbey
were fed by Mr. David Wolfensberger.

The banquet tendered Judges Johnston
and Baer by tbe members of the Somerset
Bar at the Glade House last Wednesday
evening was quite an elegant affair. At
eight o'clock the narty took their seats at the
table where thirty one plates had been laid.
Tbe supper was a most sumptuous one, tbe
table being laden with everything good you
could think of and plenty of it. It was
corker and was in keeping with tbe well earn
ed reputation of the Glade House in ibis line.
A great many toasts were proposed and re
sponded to, all being drank in water or
lemonade of course. Tbe quantity of these
beverages drank was sufficient to cause a
smile to broaden the countenance of tbe

reports of the meeting say tbat fleorge Rosa,

an uproar.
" I second the motion," yelled Hensel.
" I prefer not to know bow any man vote."
"Ob, then you can vote for yourself,"

When Goldsmith wrote "She Stoops to
Conquer," be adapted words to a pretty but
difficult IrMi air, "Tbe Humors of Balla
magairy," intending tbat they should be
sung by Miss Hardcastle. Bat as Mrs.
Bulkley, who, as critics would say now-a-days,
created " tbe part, could not sing.
tbe song was not included in tbe play wben
it was first published. Goldsmith gave it to
Boewell, Johnson's Bozzy," who sent it to
tbe Landrm Magaane, soon after poor Noll's
death. In making illustrations for ' She
Stoops," Mr. Abbey has made this song tbe
text for one of his tuost charming pictures,
which will be given with tbe installment in

way, one of the best known citizens of this
county, died at bis home in Lttterkenny
township, and was buried on Saturday in
L'pper Strasburg. He bad been sick for
about five weeks and suffered from a com
plication of diseases, which his advanced age
could not conquer. Mr. Ash way resided
during bis entire life-time in Letterkenny
township, and died within a half-mile of
the place where he was born. For many
years he was engaged in stock-dealing, in
connection with farming, and in tbat busi
ness traveled over the greater part of the
southern portion of Pennsylvania. He was
especially known in Somerset and Ferry
counties. Nine children and eight grand
children survive him. Chambertburg Valley

OiB State Schools. State Superintend
ent Higbee has made public his annual re
port for the year ending June 1, 1885. He
believes tbat tbe public school system is ad
vancing, which assertion is shown by the
fact tbat the average length of the term is
now over seven months. He believes the
time will soon be here when the minimum
term will be seven instead of five mouths,
as it is now. The total number of pupils
enrolled during the year is 082,158, an in
crease of 16,119 over last year. The average
attendance falls below tbe enrollment 225.
080. There are 22.804 teachers employed,
an increase of just 400 over last year. In the
sex distribution, there has been a decrease
ot 88 males and an increase of 4H8 females,
while the average salary paid tbe male
teacbei is 39.01, and to the female teacher is
.10.08, a difference of $9.00 in favor of tbe
former. There have been reported during
the year 432 uew buildings.
Death on the Rail. Another accident
occurred near Rowena station, on tbe Som
erset & Cambria Railroad about nine o'clock
Tuesday evening of last week. Mr. Harri
son II Lohr and Jacob Koontz, two well
known farmers of Quemauouing township,
with a sled load of women and children,
were returning from church and while
crossirg the railroad track at the above
mentioned point a north bound engine
struck tbe sled square in the middle, cut
ting it in two and throwing half of it on
each side of the road. The occupants of the
sled all escaped with but slight injuries ex
cept Mr. Lohr, who was picked np by tbe
balance of the party in an unconscious con
dition. His throat bad an ugly gash in it
and the one side of his head was caved in
He died from the effect of his injuries the
following day. It is said that the engineer
did not give tne usual signal at tbe crossing
where the accident occurred, and that in
consequence none ot the parties on me
sled heard its approach or were aware of the
imminent danger they were in until the en
gine was upon them.

Mb. Editor : Perhaps a few items from
the northern region of Armstrong county
would be of some interest to the many read
ers of yonr excellent paper
We live as people of other parts of this
earth live, on bread and butter earned by
the sweat of our faces. Of course, some
have more than others, bat there is one con
solation, that in death all will be brought
on an equality, as far as temporal things are
concerned.
The majority of the people here are of
Pennsylvania dutch extraction. As the
people of Somerset county know all about
tbe disposition of these people, it is scarcely
necessary that I should extensively describe
them.
The political atmosphere is Republican,
and of the most radical stamp. To persuade
these staunch Republicans of Red Bant
township to vote for a Democrat for an of
fice of any importance, is as impossible as
ii is for camel to go through tbe eye of a
needle.
As for myself, having been brought up on
Republican soil in Somerset county, 1 nat-
urally enjoy the wholesome political atmos
phere in this part of loyal Pennsylvania.
Prohibition is also creating quite an ex
citement in these parts, many are signing
remonstrances agaiust applicants for license.
On next Sabbath evening there will be a
Temperance meeting in tbe Evangelical
Church of this place, and no doubt tbe sub
ject of prohibition will be thoroughly dis
cussed.
Sleighing is brisk, people are taking ad
vantage of tbe snow to do their hauling.
Business is very much depressed, people
are breathing vengeance agaicsi me rot
tenness of the Democratic party.
If you will think proper to publish this
yon may expect more in the future.

As the first election of tax collectors un

Dear Hebalp Inasmuch as it is time
for my epistolary visit to tbe columns of
your excellent journal, I am prone to adhere
to my adopted custom. No periodical is so
dear to my heart as the Herald, for, like
the ' Old Oaken Bucket" it brings "fond
recollections to view". How eagerly I
watched its career all through the late cam
paign wben enemies maligned and fain
would fell the standard of Republicanism,
like a bird in its aerial flight came out all
victorious.
Time continues with its usual meddling
to make many changes and now in this
epoch of time, we are subjects of tbe ''Brig
adiers". The present status of affairs
prompts me to inquire "what would Lee
and Jackson do if they were living?" This
is a conundrum propounded in one of the
Southern States hence it is a happy tact
that they are embalmed in oblivion. I
have always understood it to be true that
''Virtue bas its own reward" and if there be
such a thing ns political virtue, suiely it has
been exemplified in the case of the great
'War Governor," A. G. Curtin. Now, I bad
not intended to touch on politics, and yet it
isn't probable that I could write a letter and
remain silent on this subject. At any rate
we propose to "doff our tile" Beaver to
tbat gallant soldier and citizen His Excel
lency Gov. James A. Beaver.
Altoona City maintains her nsual quota
of casualties as in the pass and were I to at
tempt to enumerate the many cases of death
by accident it would simply prove an ig
nominious failure. Tbe shops are running
full time and this in itself is "tidins of great
jov."
Dr. Lindsey, a man of intemperate hab
its, quite prominent, too, recently fired the
contents of a horse-pistol, consisting of
small shot, at two young men who had
evidently been taunting him, lodging two
shot in the the one's face and one shot in
the leg of tbe other. It seems that tbe boys
were habitually calling him ngly names and
he resented it in tbe manner related above.
Tbe young men are all right and so is the
Doctor as no arrests were made. Speaking
of Dr. Lindsey in this connection it is prop
er to say that he is the great discoverer of
"Lindsey's Blood Searcher" a medicine
world wide in its fame. It is authoritative
ly stated that he was offered or its right the
munificent sum of fifty thousand dollars out
of which be was subsequently swindled. I
have had my say and to be "pungent" I
must be "Drief but as I have been neither,
I Close with mush esteem.

FORTY-OXE ARB DEAD.
Only One of Ibe Miners Who Entered
the Shaft Tnorsday Morning Ea
capes How tbe Explosion was
Caused.
Grafton, W.Va, Jan. 23. Forty-two
ruen were in tbe gang tbat
went to work yesterday morning in
the ill-fated Orrel mine at Newberg.
It is now known thatof that num
ber 41 are dead. Tbe man who es
caped is John Miller ; he came up
five minutes before tbe accident
The cause of tbe awful calamity
is attiibuted to tbe removal by Al
bert McWilliams of a bulkhead
across one of tbe ventilating galler
ies, which turned tbe fresh air from
its proper course and permitted tbe
accumulation of fire-damp. This
was tired by a naked lamp, and the
explosion followed.
Vhen the explosion occurred the
cages were at tbe bottom of tbe shaft
and tbe tremendous energy resulting
from the combustion crushed them
and the heavy timber lining of the
shaft into a confused mass. This
demolition of the cages obliged the
iesciiers to resort to the iron coal
buckets as a means of reaching tbe
level of the drifts, and as they will
bold but tbree men, the work of re
moving the obstructions proceeds
very slowly.
the force oe the explosion.
Some of the men have, however,
forced tbeir way through into the
mine and peuetrated about 300 feet
along the main beading. Tbey re
port tbat one cross beading 80 feet
long, which bad been filled op solid
with slate, mud and refuse, was
blown entirely open, tbe enormous
mass of debris being scattered for
several hundred teet aloTig tbe gal
leries,
Th first bodies were reached at 5
o'clock this evening. At 6 o'clock this
evening, four bodies had been dis
covered and removed to the bottom
of tbe shaft, but they will not be
brought up to the surface until
morning. .Thev are so blackened
and disfigured as to be unrecogaizi
ble.
Every hour since the disaster,
scenes of tbe most agonizing charac
ter have been enacted in tbe homes
of tbe villagers that were poor, but
happy, yesterday, but are now deso'
late. At first it was hoped that the
men who were in tbe mine might
have escaped instant death and
they could be rescued before they
died of starvation. While there
was reason to believe this, the wives,
mothers and other relations of the
unfortunates retained tbeir feeling
to some extent. This mornine.how-
e'er, when word was passed from
mouth to mouth in whispers that
there was no hope that any of the
miuef8 were still living, a wail of
anguish resounded through the
wtole villuge, and when 36 hours
ago laughter was heard, the only
sounds now are moans.
THE VILLAGE IN MOURNING.
Twenty-two of the victims were
married men, and of that number
10 bad families living in Newberg.
Oi the unmarried men and boys
nearly all bad relatives among the
500 persons that makes up the popu
lation of tbe village.

The year 188-3 has been one of the most busy years at this
establishment. Forty-three Monuments and One Hundred and
Seventy-two Headstones is the record for the year. We thank
our numerous customers for their liberal patronage, and would
announce to all who may be in need of anything in our line
that we are now in the field, looking up orders for delivery in
the Spring of 1886.
We propoee to continue t do the best work at the lowest
prices. We are determined to eclipse the past in the extent of
our business, and to this end have reduced prices to the very
lowest figure, and shall continue to do the best work.
lio not be deceived into believing that dealers of a few years
experience can do work as well as we can. If you are in need
of work please visit the 13erlin Marble Works, or else wait un
til the Proprietor or one of his agents calls to see you, and you
will be sure to get the best return for your money.
