The aeries of Great American Industries
in Uarper'i ilagnziiu is continued in the
coming number by an article on Sugar. The
subject is most thoroughly handled, and co
piously illustrated. The author, II. li. Bjw
ker, lias gathered material from the most
eminent and recent authorities. Beginning
with a brief history of sugar, he shows its
enormous production at present, describes
the Louisiana plantations and their work,
and the mysterious processes of tbe great re
fineries. Beside the sagir-cane, sorghum,
beet, maple and glucose sugar are carefully
treated. The wonderful chemistry if sweets
is unfolded, as well as the secrets of candy-
making. The paper is a compendium of
valuable information.

when the watchman of tl e Chicago Board cf
Trade building made his rounds, h found
the sidewalks arid streets in front of the
tower covered with dead birds of afl sorts.
A little later the elec'rician cameriown, and
said the birds had been killed by the electric
light at the top of the tower. When he
went np to tlie lantern with several mera
lers of the Board of Trade the roof was
found to be covered with dead birds and
each of the lamps in tho big circle of light
was filled with them, one globe having eight
birds in it- . These birds are of every known
variety, and many unfamiliar species are
1 among the lot. All ahaJcs and colors are;
there, scarlet, blue. pink, red, canary, mot
tled black and white, and there ware some
snipe and plover among them. The tbewy
is that they were migratory flocks, going
Trora south to north, and were attracted by
tbe great light, which killed them the mo
ment they touched it. Many iiertoni were

well to remember tbat according to the sev

give public notice by written or printed
handbills, posted 111 at Iciest tea public pla
ces in different parts of the district that the
duplicate is in their hands; of the five per
cent abatement within sixtv dnvs and the
five per cent penalty alter six months. It
is to be feared some of the collectors neglect
this requirement, and they should remeJy
their neglect at once. It is also to be noted
that 011 the last two weeks of these sixty
days the collector, or some one representing
him, is to be at a designated convenient
place between 2 and 6 r. m. to receive such

Liliie Klohr, of Bedford, was married in
Philadelphia on Fefcrnary ft, 1SSI. to Gjorge
R-tine, but after a month of wedded life in
Wilmington, De!., her lnnband deserted her
and entered the mrnlar armv, being now
stationed at Fort Leavenworth. Mrs. Res
tine subsequently returned to Philadelphia
and took up her abode with her mother-in-law
but was soon after sent to her home in
Bedford, where she attempted to commit
suicide bf shooting. Failing to accomplish
this she returned to Phiiadelpnia. where
she was married again about a month ago
to Albert B. Evans, of Vincetown, N. J,
whom she first met in a concert saloon in
Philadelphia. As her first husband, how
ever, is still in the land of the living, the
latter marriage was of course voiil and of no
legal efteert, and taking advantage of this her
second husband, if husband be could be
called, suddenly sought pastures new, and
after a brief courtship took 'unto himself
another wife iu the j-erson of Miss Kate
Mack, of Mount Holly, N. J., to whom he
was married at Trenton last wee?k.

patent on exhibition in tlie Arbitration J
Room in the Court Hoii-e this week, where I
ail interested can call and inspect it. Tht.
model is only for a prison, although plans
and specifications for a jail complete, are al
so on exhibition. As our commissioners
are aUmt to erect a new prison and this one
has cunimende'd itself to all who have seen
it, we give a short ele;riptio for those
of our rvn lers who have not had the opjior-
tutiity.
The circ'liar c.dl structure is intended to
be anv required number of storiet high with
ten or less cells to each tier, and rotates,
bodily on a central vertical shaft, turning
npon conical steel rollers, like a railway
tarn-table. The cells are surrounded with
a heavy, stationary steel grating, with only
one door opening in it foreaerh tier of cells
The structure is revolved by a crank, that
it is claimed can lie turned with three fingers
of the left hand, and the several cells can be
successively presented in front of the sta
tionary door in the grating. " All the cell-i
except the one opposite the door are secure
ly closed by tlie grating behind which they
move. A ventilating stiatl extends up
through the cell structure and discharges
into the open air through a turrel on top of
the building.
Each cell is provided with a permanent
water chsset projecting from the rear of the
cell into the ventilating shaft, and is su'pen
ded over a trough of running water, with a
cast iron beater smoke stack from the cel
lar running Dp through the ventilating
shaft, it will readily or seen that a powerful
upward current of the air is created, which
will can all the primn oders to be drawn
from the cells and discharged into the open
air above the roof. The walla, floor and
ceilings of ail the cells are made of solid
saw-prof) steel. We understand that a new
jail according to Ihe plan and apecificaUioaa
shown caa be bnilt for f lu 0.

Tub License QessTiox. Tne excitement
in Somerset, which has been very great for
t'na past two or three weeks has about reach
ed its climax. For almost all the cases in
which a special remonstrance has been fil
el testimony has been taken before an of
ficer to show the necessity lor that particu
lar license or an attempt has been made to
prove the contrary. The last batch of tes
tamony was filed at a late hour Saturday
evening. The cases were all made up, the
issue joined and the contending forces rested
upon their arms until the final battle should
open Monday evening. The crowd in town
Monday was a large one and the license
question was the talk of the day.. Polities
for once had to take second place and the
many candidates who were about seeing
their frienda found it up hill work to get
them to talk election. . Tbe first tap of the
bell had scarcely sounded Monday evening
when the crowd begun rushing toward the
court house and by the time court called the
large room was crowded, quite a number of
ladies baing ia tlie audience. Judge Baer
announced that the Court proposed to hear
both sides fully, aud that the law as laid
down in the opinion of the court delivered
at Bedford last week would also govern in
this county. He also announced that if the
members of the W. C. T. C. wonld agree
upon any jiersun. uot a member of the bar,
whom they wished -to speak in their behalf
he would he heard. The attorneys for the
liquor people strongly objected to this bnt
the court remained firm in his decision,
The temperance people selected Elder Peter
Vogel to s)eak for them. Both sides were
represented by the ablest counsel that could
be procured. . ,-: ' .
Mr. Ruppel led off for the remonstrants
and made onof the most forcible and clean
cut arguments that we have ever listened to.
His speech was not long but his arguments
were strong and weighty. Ue was followed
by Val. Hay, Esq., the most energetic tem
perance man in the county, iu a half hour
argument. tJeneral Cotfroth then spoke
and made a strong apx-al against the grunt
ing of license, especially to the hotels in
Somerset. Elder Vogel followed General
Coffroth in a fifteen or twenty minnte
SeecJi. By this time it was alter nine
o'clock, and the court asked tbe attorneys
whether they preferred to have an all-night
Session aad finish the job, or whether they
wonld let tbe matter co over till Tuesday
iiiht. It was finally decided to continue
tha m-sm'oii for another hour and then ad
journ. If. L. Baer then made the oiwninf
argument Cor the license applicants in a for
cible speech of over an hour in length.
When he finished the crowd broke out into
applause which was quickly stopped by the
Court oliicers. At the closo of Mr. Baer s
speech court adjourned. The argument
will again betaken up at the opening of this
eveuinei session of Court.

A RnuAKkASi.t Booat.
Many years ago Sir Edward Sngden wrote
for an English law journal a series of " Let.
l ers u a Mau of Proiiexty." These letters were
written in an attractive and popular style,
and embraced sach legal subjects as would
be of greatest interest an J use to a country
gentleman remote from town, who had
often to act, from want of advice, on his own
judgment. The journal in which the? were
published was much sought for, both in
England and in this country. So well did
they cover the -ground, and so popular did
they become, that they were subsequently
collected and published in book form. The
book met with an extensive circulation and
after Sir Edward became, Lord Saint Leon
ard, was re-written and a new edition given
to the public, called, 1 think, " Lord Saint
Leonard's Laws of Property," which became
still more popular with the legal profession
and with business men.
A few years later Theophilus Parsons, LL.
V. of the Law School of Harvard Univer
sity, then in the zenith of his power as a
lawyer, commenced the preparation of a
work on the " Laws of Business,' modeled
after Lord St. Leonard s book. Tbe work
became exceedingly popular, and thousands
of the clearest-headed business men in the
country pronounced it to be a book they
could not afford to get along without. The
author bad, however, given to it only such
leisure as the duties of Dane Professor left
him, and compiled it mainly from the law
books be had already made for the profes
sion. Ue dtaerniined, therefore, at some fu
ture day, to retire and make a new - edition
of tue work. To make the book aa useful as
it might be, sujerfluous matter was to be
eliminated, plain English sentences were to
take the place of technical terms, and many
chapters 011 new topics, and very many
more forms iuscrted. He entered upon
the contemplated new edition bnt be
came satisfied it would not sutlice, and
tbat nothing would suffice but a nrw
cojyri'jht, and under it a turn book, which
should coyer all the ground intelligent pur
chasers had a right to exiect a book of its
kind would occupy. This new book hehai
now brought to perfection, retaining a part
of -he former title, but calling it au "En
larged' and Improved Edition" to distin
guish it from, tbe old.- This reniarka
bio" 'volntne not' only - stiersedes tlie
ous modeled afier Lord Saint Leonard's, bnt
is the only book of Its kind which has ever
been endorsed by thu Chief Justice of tlie
United States, the Associate Justices of the
Supreme Bench, and the naostcmineut juN
ists and lawyers of the couutry, li uotonly
Covers 1 bi.se legal questions which constantly
arise iu coniieciiou with property, and the
every-day transactions of the community,
but each principle discussed is concisely
drawn from the most recent decisions of the
courts. - -
' As to the forms, they have heen so largely
multiplied as to embrace every legal instru
ment in common uso. The author well
says: "He muse be a bold lawyer who
would undertake to prefer forms of bis own
make to those which the courts and com
mon use have sanctioned." This Professor
Parsons has not dope, but has embraced
only those forms which have stood the test
of judicial criticism, and been sanctioned by
courts of law. A critical examination of
them satisfies the writer tbat they comprise
the mint useful, and only safe collection of
the kind he has ever seen. . The book is
thus made as well indispensable to tbe law
yer, the business mau and tbe farmer, as U
every man who buys, sells or makes bar
gains. In nothing the author baa uublaa
ed has he labored mure strenuously to make
hi work satisfy the just requirements aad
reasonable expectations of thinking and
practical men.
WboTbeoplil.is Parsons Is, is known to
every lawyer, as be is tbe learned author of
a number of standard worn which
bare beconis classical in tbe pro
fession. He was a long time en the
bench as Chief Justice of bis native
State, which position be resigned to accept
tbe Professorship of Law in Harvard Uni
versity. In every positioa in wkica be has
acted, whether aa lawyer, judge, lecturer or
writer, be has distiagaished himself. Varna

BARRON. On tbe 10th inst, in Middle
Creek township Somerset Co., Mrs. Eliza
beth Barron, aged 79 years, 9 months and
12 days.
ARLSMAX. On Saturday, May 8, 18S6,
in Somerset township, Adam Arisman, aged
36 years, 2 months and 5 days.
He was born in Germany on tbe 4th day
of March, 18u0, and emigrated to the United
States in 1S48. He was the father of three
sons aad two daughters, twenty-two grand
children and twenty-two great grandchil
dren. He lived a consistent Christian life,
and was for many years an office-bearer in
the church of his choice.
We clip the following obituary notice.
from the Bellefontaine, (O.,) Examiner :
Death or Claba M. Hahkcx. Died, at
her home in Somerset, Pa., on Monday
night April 5th. of nervous prostration
Clara M. Hannniu. formerly a resident of
Bellefontaine.
Her funeral, a quiet, unostentatious one
in accordance with her expressed desire,
took place from the First Presbyterian
Church of this place on the following Sat-
rday, and her remaias placed beside those
of her father and sister.
Frail and delecate from her youth, with
all the discouragements to activity that a
feeble constitution entails, Clara has left a
beautiful record of usefulness that now
proves a precious souvenir to her bareaved
friends. Endowed by nature with a com
prehensive grasp of ideas ruott remarkable.
possessed of unusual fluency and felicity of
expression in conversation, a cultured mind.
polished manners, having the happy facul
ty of adapting herself to the society of the
youngest as well as those of mature minds,
a piquant and sprightly disposition, coupled
with rare gentleness and sweetness, her dai
ly life an exponent of the highest christian
principle, loved and esteemed most by those
who knew her best such was Clara.
Gifted with fine literary tastes she was
early identified with the old Irving Society
of the High School, (of which institution
she was an honored graduate in 176) and
was a leading spirit in other literary move
ments of our town, her tine elocutionary
powers rendering her much sought after,
and giving her prominence in all public en
tertainments. Besides being a fair French
scholar, she was a writer of much promise,
as contributions from her pen to various
journals testify, notably a pleasing sketch
entitled "The Exposition," published in
Tli Ujuxkaiia Notes of the W. C. T. U.
Couyention at Beliefoiile, Pa., to which she
was a deieAtc, aiso indicate a ready peu.
For liie paat few years uer activities have
found a liei.i in the temperance work of her
ad.pted State. President cf the Young
People's Temperance Society of Somerset,
she was also the founder and organizer of
the Tempe-rance School of Bellefontaine
while visiting in this plaoo two years ago,
and devoted mach time and expended her
failing strength in starting the school before
the visit would end. When expostulated
with she replied : " I fee! that I must do all
the good I can while here, for I shall never
see this beautiful town again." A sad proph
ecy verified all too soon !
So calmly did sbe'talk of her approaching
death that ber nearest friends here could
not realize tbat the Destroyer was so near,
although many who looked on ber almost
transparent face that summer thought the
end could not be far away, and yet ber spir
it lingered for eighteen months lonzer be
fore leaving its earthly tenement. Stealthily
but steadily her strength waned and the end
so often appeared close at hand that they
almost
"Thought her dying when she slept,
And sleeping when she died."
Her Christian experiences were most won
derful and carried her beyond her sufferings
to heights seldom attained by older Chris
tians. To the last her mind remained un
clouded, and her death was a most tri
umphant one. Even the grave was trans
formed to a couch of beauty, " Because, as
she told ber mother, " Jesus has lain there.
Lovely in life, lovely in the hour of death,
Clara Hannum will 'live long iu the memory
of many devoted friends in her childhood
home. V. S. P.
