The fruit will then be found to occupy the can equally." The n-eeipt -omcs handy at this season of the year. On a recent Sunday a new-made bride and groom, an-onipanied by several friends, took a wa'k from their i-ouiitry home out on to Coons Ridge, in Tfpju-r Yoder township.

Never within our n-collection was there a duller or more disagreeable holiday than tlie Fourth of JulylWC. Then-was no public celebration (f any .kind. The ston-s were all closed and the town had a Sunday apienr anoc rather thuu that of a holiday. Some of our citizens went to I'rsiua and Confluence and other places when- public demonstra tions wen' Is-ipg held. The weather was in tensely arro and the dqst on the streets was so gn at as to nutkc it very -disagreeable to be out of disirs. In the evening there wiu quite a fine display of fire works sent off from Mrs. Parker's boanling house and from the Somerset House. - - The " Glade " base ball nine, aimianie by a half doa-n or more of their friendsilrove over the mountain Sunday to play a game with the Mt.

Hartshorn is said to lie U tter than brandy in cases of sunstroke. Marking Ground for Planting. An ingenious and simple method ofniark ing ground for planting is to use a wbeel barniw as a marker. Nail a cni-pie against the front board to pmjort on both sides of the burrow. Fnun this, at such a distance from the centre on each side as you want the nws ajiart, atttach a piece of chain to drag on the ground. Then pass hack and fin-lb across the patch to I w marked, U-iug guided by the last mark made. The idea of using a wheclliarniw is that there is little chance iif its diverting sideways, and straight rows may be easily made. G. A. R. Encampment. The program for the G. A.R. encampment at Gettysburg has lieeti initially arranged. Ou Sunday. July 10, religious services will lie held in the national cenietery,.and will be conducted by Deirtment Chaplain John W.

Two horses of Samuel Weimer, ofRostra ver, were struck by lightning during the storm of Monday morning, says the West Newton Tiau. They were in pasture, and were found aUmt five o'clock in the morn ing. The right eyes of Nub animals were closed with water mnning from them, and blood from their nostrils. The anterior ex tremities of the animals were so stiffened by the shiM-k that they were unable to put their head to the gniund. It issupjiosed the animals had their heads near a tree which n-ortved an electric holt. Vi'atmart .m Ihrmuent. Pardon Board Hung In Effigy. When the (eopleof MifHiutown, Juniata county, arose last Tuesday morning, they found foui tttigies hung to a clothesline stretched acntss the main street.

W. Mc.Meen, the wife-oisonei. The ris5 was cut, and the itligies taken away. The Governor has not yet endorsed the Hoard's ni-ommeiidatiou for commutation. He Saw a Panther. The EU-nsburg JfanM says thnt William Howell, a nicctab!e citizen. living three niili-s south of Ebenshurg, on Thursday htst saw in some bushes what he at first took to be a calf. The next instant, however, it had lealicd up and taken a cat-like position on a log, and then he knew what it was. Being further startled by bis presence, the animal gave a tremendous leap and 'disappeared in the laurel. It was of a reddish brown color, with'a dark strijie running down each side near the fon- legs, and stri around its eyes. It was alxmt two feet high and five feet long. Mr. Howell is perfectly responsible, and there is no disputing ids tianther story. Sunlight and Fresh Air. Says writer in a recent publication : Sun light and fresh uir are two gn-at sanitery airents too often excluded from the dwelling. Sunshine fades cars-ts ami furniture dress ings, it is tnte ; but it is better that the col ors of such objects should disapcar than that the faces of children and adults alike should Uvome blanched like plants growing in a cellar. With the loss of ruddy colora tion from the li and check go strength and all that makes life worth living. The U-st-lighU-d houses are, all other things lieing equal, are the most healthful habitations. If the doors and windows are permitted to stand OJKH for the entrance of the breeze, dust will come in. and another element of destniction of house furnishings will be add ed to the light of day. Hut moms in which the air is not frequently, almost constantly change.!, are unfit for the maintenance of health. This is most especially true ofsl"i ing apartments. Bedford County Democ rats. The llemiH-ratic County Convention held at Hlford Tuesday nominated Dr. Frank M. Marburg for Sheriff, Josiah Anios for Prothotiotary, Maj. J. F. Mickel for Record er, S. S. Gump for Treasurer. Frank E. Col vin for District Attorney, J. H. Thompson aiid James Hocnstinc for Commissioners, Jacob C. Rarton for Director of the Poor, William Scott Ake and A. F. Diehl fbr Aud itors, and Dr. M. L. Stehlcy for Coroner. Hon. J. M. Reynolds was elected Chairman of the County Ctanniitteee, and Hon. H. C, McNamara memU-rofthe Suite Committee, Frank M. Amos. Edward Mi Hugh. George M. Steckmiin, and Samuel Snyder were elect ed delegates to the State Convention. The resolutions endorse the administration of President Cleveland, condemn Tovernor Heaver for his subserviency to coqxinttioits, and esjiecially denounce the defeat of the new revenue bill and the veto of the store order hill. The I-gislature is denounced as extravagant and corrupt, and all its sins of omission and commission are enumerated. A New Law. Among the bills iasssl at Ihe last sesion of the Ijcgislatnre is one radii-ally changing the present prarticc and met In si of pnx-edure in civil cases. In all actions for money due, whether under contrart or for breach of con tract, or for work done or materials furnish ed, the plaintiff" by serving with the sum mons a statement of his claim showing the amount due, will lie entitled to judgement at the end of fifteen' days Unless an affidavit shall have Us-n filed by the defendant dur ing that time setting forth fully the nature and character- of bis defense. It behooves the layman to make a note of this, as in case he doe not comply with the pmvisions of tbp act he is liable to have judgement enten-d against him by default after fifteen days. The new act will tin doulitully occasion some hardships of this kind until its pnivssions U-come more gen erally known, but on the other hand it does away with much thnt Is cumbersome and technical in the practice of the law, and will greatly speed the diisition of causes. I'hil 'ulfphia Tour. Teachers' Salaries. A subject of very frequent discussion in every school district is that of teachers' sala ries, and tliere is scnreely a newspajier in Pennsylvania that has not expressed the opinion that the. teachers are paid salaries absolutely niggardly when compared with the inqio.-tant work they have to do. It is time that people everywhere become more alive to the vital importance of having the best talent for the training of their children and that they be H illing to y well for the servii-e. Here is an idea concerning the State appropriation : A number of leading citizens of the tow n of West Chester, in this State, have publicly approved the suggestion that ChestiT county's share in the increase of tlie State appropriation to public k hinds be adled to the salaries of the teachers. The Pittsburgh Timrt takes np tlie subject, and adds : " As they averageonly $35.23a month every sensible person should be exjiected to join tlie approval. What kind of education mast that be which is furnished by teachers Iid the wages of farm hands? Niggardli ness in the schools Is not only mean, but foolish and wasteful. It is hiring a bungler to ioil work, and not only work, hut mind, and ierhaiM character. As a class, none so well deserve what they earn as Uie well-paid teachers.'' - .-' ' Special Announcement. .

Pkab Emtob: I liereby take pleashre in returning our sincere and heartfelt thanks to the members of the Evangelical Lutheran congregation at LumU-rtsville, who at the hour of their Sabbath-school, on the 2lith of June, after an able presentation address by Jairus Lambert, pn-senteil to the jiastor, on behalf of the congn-gation, a large and most elegant Bible, together witn a Hymnal, or Book or Worship. This gift is not only ap preciated by us on account of its inherent usefulness and value, but also as a tangible expression of their appreciation of our pres ence and la! sir among them. We would also say to all our people of the different congre gations in the Hooversville charge, that they have come to our help, and given us many good things since the recent floml. They huve by their generosity shown to the world that they understand tlie heaven-bom sentiment that it is more blessed to give than te receive. May the God of Heaven abundantly bless them ; may these hills and valleys produce an exceeding abundance of the fruits of the earth that they may be recomjieus ed in teinjHiral blessings, and may they at last receive the Master's approval, " lnaw. much us ye did it unto one of the least of these my servants, ye did it unto me.

' Farmers are all busy with their corn at present, and the pnispects for a large crop are good. Small grain don't look sotneour aging on account of not having sufficient rain in the spring, but a good ruin several weeks ago made it look tine. Corn is grow ing wonderfully. You can almost see it shoot up. The railroads are hauling off a large amount of grain for the June market. Corn is selling at 22 cents icr bushel. . ( Our town is exjierieneing quite a boom this summer. The main line of the North western Railroad to Denver, Colorado, is un der headway ; it passes through our county seat, David City.

' A Reported Interview With Repre sentative Push. Represeiitrtive J. L. Pugh spent several days of last week in Iittsburgh, on legal business. The Leader of that citv of Friday contained the following : " Nothing has blighted otircounty in years like the abandonment of the South Petin pro ject, fjuni had appreciated in value, busi ness hud U-en stimulated, new schemes hnd leen projected, and there was a general liv ening up of things, all nosed upon tlie hope of the completion of the tnmk line. With the death of the scheme came the death of the budding pmjeets. It will take years to put us in as hopeful and promising a conut tion as we were before we were thus thrown down. There is no hoj. in my judgment, of a revival of Ihe road. Years hence its im irtance will likely force itself on the mil mad ns'ple of the East, and it will I con stnieted. " SjH-aking of the political possibilities, Mr. Pugh said : ' 1 am in the dark. I am a dele gate to the State liepuhlieun Convention, and am instructed for Judge Mitchell for Supreme Judge and Captain Hart for State Treasurer. I think as soon as he gets a rejsirt from the lievenne Commission, Governor Beaver will reconvene the legislature to act on the Rev enue bill." When Mr. Hugh's attention was culled to the aUive be indignantly repudiated the lat ter paragraph and denied that he had so ex pressed himself. As a delegate to the State tVinventlon he is ttiiinstrncteil, but says that he is warmly for Col. Grimeson, for State Treasurer and has always so expressed him self, both before and since bis election as a lelegatc. So far us he has been abb; to gath er the sentiment of the Republicans of the county he thinks that it fs altogether for Col. Grimeson and that both he and his col league Mr. M. H. Hartzell will give him their earnest supiort. On Ihe Supreme Judgeship he had not fully made up his mind but thought from what he could learn, the sentiment of the Republicans of the county was favorable to Judge Williams of Tioga county. The enterprising Lrmlrr interviewer was evidently too full "of thoughts of the ge-loriotis Fourth to reiMirt representative Pugh correctly. Stoyestown Items. P. J.

The B. & O. signalizes its entrance into Philadelphia hy au excursion Thursday, July 7, to Atlantic City and Cum May, the most noted seaside resorts in the country. This is tlie grandest excursion ever offered to the public involving a ride over the " Pic turesque line of America," along the beauti ful Potomac, through historic Hauler's Fer ry, Washington, II. C, Baltimore and Phil adelphia, and at rates within thx reach of everyone who enjoys traveling. ' Train of Parlor Curs and East ljike Coaches will hve dejiot, Somerset, at 9:30 a. in., arriving in Philadelphia at 8:45 p. ui. Next duy passengers will leave ou any regu lar train for Atlantic City or Cape May. Tickets will be good for ten days, with stop off privilege at Washington City, returning Fare for round trip, $0.00. For further inlornmtioil apply to Agents of B. 4 O. Railroad, or to E. D. Smith, Di vision Passenger Agent, Pittsburgh, Pa. Several persons have asked us to call the attention of sujiervisurs to tlie necessity of having index boards at all proper places along the public roads of the county so that travelers arc able to ascertain what road to take in going from place to place, and the distance. People living in the country are acquainted with the roads in their respectUe localities, and index boanls to them are of very little account, hence they become indif ferent to their necessity ; but it is otherwise with strangers. Index boards to them are absolutely necessary, and suiiervisors should see that they are erected in proper places and kept in order. There ought, at all crossings of railroads, be a sign of caution in order to prevent accidents. Railroads operated in the county should have such signs of .cau tion places! most prominently at every cross ing, and this is a duty inqiosed on railroad eomianies, and is not one of the duties of supervisors. Select Excursions to the Seashore via Pennsylvania Railroad. Pursuing the policy of the last few years, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company will this summer run a series of select excursions from Pittsburgh and points in Western Penn sylvania to Atlantic City, Cape May, and Sea Isle City. These trips have in pat sea sons been highly favored by the resiilctits of this section, as well on account of the popu larity of the mints in question as of tlie lib eral rates and sucrior accommodations of fered by the CoiujBiny. All their populur features will be muiiiluiued this summer, and they will without doubt increase in fa vor with our people. The seashore points covered by the excur sions are the most jsipular as will as the most desirable resorts on the Atlantic coast. No such bathing, yachting, boating or fish ing exists in any other localities, nor does any other point or nu mlier of points afford as gn-at a pnifusion of maritime- pleasures. The dates fixed for the excursions are July 14th and 2Hth, August 11th and 25th. A siecial train will leave Pittsburgh at 8:50 a. m.. arriving in Philadelphia at 7:5U p. m. Excursionists ss nd the night in Philadel phia, and proceed to the shore by any regu lar train of the succeeding morning. The ex cursion tickets, good for ten days, will be sold as heretofore at $10.00. No other trip promises so much for the money, and none will be found so fruitful in health, recreation and pleasure.
