Iu many place iu the county voters are
under the impression that tax nIei-tors are

This is an error, tax collectors must be elect

Young America has held high carnival for

this popular exreise to the full. It is a dan

thoughtlessness. Care cannot be urged t'H

Everybody bail the privilege of witnessing
tlie somewhat rare phenomenon a total
eclipse of tlie moon Saturday evening. The
atm.iHphere was a bit frigid to allow of ex
tensive moon gaxitig. lience we were unable j
to adjust our telescojie to the proper foots to
permit of our viewing tlie waterless seas,
tbe great unk-n craters and the mountain
peaks ol our lifeless satellite. In a Inner
eclipse the earth is the shadow-easting body
and tbe moon is the screen upon which our
planet demonstrates its sphericity.
Tlie Johnstown Lumber Company have

their office in Johnstown to their mills near 1
Coleman' station, this county, a distance of J
aliout twenty-three miles. The poles have
all been placed in pisiion and the wires j
strung and the instruments wiil be on hand
within the next few days. The company
that is organizing in this county will proba
bly make arrangement with the Lumlier
Company to connect the new line with theirs i
and thus obtain coniuiuuicalion with Jwbna- j
town. The first line to "be pnt np liy the I
Somerset County Company will probably be !
from Somerset to Jenner X Roods. A tuini- J
N-r of business men in the northern iirt of ;

engine at tbe rear of the train was derailed.
Tlie mail train went onto Johnstoan.and

A Western Girl's Heroism.
M:ss Minnie Freeman, the heroic tiwcher
at Myra Valley, Nebraska, abrme presence of
mind saved from d.-ath her thirteen little
pupils during tlie terrible stoarn tells the fol
lowing story : '
" The storm came np very suddenly and
struck the srboolhonse just aliout the time
for closing. I knew from indications thai it
was going Jo be a tt-gular blizzard, an.l, pld
the children to all wrap np well. While I
was attending o them the doors blew in
and then the windows, j put my cloak on
and was wondering what I was going to do.
I had ma.lc up my RiHid that the building
Would not last long. Then !mipe!ed to
think of a lull uf twine had taken away
from a little fr'.low. began tying the chil
dren t.rgctlier. and when I bad coniplcted
this tak I fimtemd one end of the string to
my arm and awailed developments. Very
soon the roof of tbe building blew off and I
said, ' Come on children,' and we started.
The nearest house was thrur-quarters of a
mile away, and in order to reach It we hat
to tace the storm for almut one-third of the
distance. I wt carrying tlie smallest child,
a little girl, and my talking' to the children
and urging them to keep np their spirits tir
ed me very much. Well, we got to the
house, and beyond a few frost-bitten fingers,
noses, and ears we were all in a good condi
tion M when wc started.'
Mis Freeman then spoke of the large
number of letters she had reeeived since the
story of lier bravery ot iuto print. Most of
them were natuarally of a complimentary
nature, but nine contained offers of marriage.

RETAIL LIQUOR LICENSE.
Ten Called but Three Chosen Som
erset Uoes Dry.
- When the Hfald went to press on Toes
day evening last, the all absorbing license
question was occupying the attention of the
court and eloquent attorneys were making
exhaustive arguments in fitvor of or against
granting the prayer of the ten applicant
who prayed to be authorized by the court
to retail liquor to their 6 !Iow citizens from
f H. 3,, u Janaary A. D. lsss , ,ho
2kh day of January A. D. The argu
ing of the question was kept np till noon
Wednesday when court was adjourned to
half-past one o'clock r. when it was an
nounced the court would render its decision
in the matter.- Of course there was a great
deal of speculating on all side as to what
that decision would be. Promptly at the
ringing of the bell in the afternoon a large
and eager crowd of spectators rushed to the
court room to hear the decision of the court
announced- Quite a number ofladics. promi
nent in tlie W. C. T. t. movemeut were
in the audience. The full Bench was present.
Alter court bail been duly opened Judge
Baer read the rulings on the different appli
cation. The applications of Scott Sterner,
Confluence ; John II. Sliccr, Nathaniel Sli
cer, Robert Guthrie and E. Kyle, all of
Meyersdalc ; John Winters, of Somerset, and
A. A. Miller, of Frsina were all refused.
Aguinst all these there were large remon
strances. The number of remonstrants being
very far in excess of the petitioners.
The applications of Charles A. Mitchell
and Edward Xieklow. of Addison and Agust
KiFhler, of fonemasigh, were granted, there
having been no remonstrance filed against
them.
The derision of the Orart was received
with very general satisfietion, much more
so than last year when all applications were
refused, without regard to petitions or re
monstrance. Utcour many of tlie appli
cants and friends of license were greatly dis
appointed at the ruling of the Court and
were very free in expressing their opinion of
the same, but the general public w re sutis
tieil that the decision was a just one. The
apjilicstions of distillers and wholesale deal
ers will come up at the April argument
court, when the temperance eople will
make a strong etlort to have the manufac
turers shut off.
Following is the ruling of tlie Court on
tlie letail applications. In the case of the
successful applicant., Mitchell, Nicklow and
Kueuler it is as follows :
i . 1,a' P'n
necessity for a licensed house, and the fitness
of the applicant and displace having been
amrniatively establislied as required by the
law passed May 1 !, ls-7, by more than the
requisite number of certifiers in each case,
and no remonstrance Iiuvini? been filed
against tlie granting of the licenses, and
nothing made toapirar to the Con rt that
would warrant a refusal. Hie license to each
of the said applicants is now granted as pray
ed for, for the period of one vear from this
date. I'eb O'Eiam.
In the cases of the rejected applitions the
opinioii of the Court was as follows :
The petitions iu each of these case is in
form and bond approved, except in one case.
The fitness of lite applicant, and the houses
I applied for, is conceded. But the necessity
01 the license to each 01 tlie applicants lias
Ix-en vigorously availed. Petitions and ad
ditional pctitiotis have been filed, as nave
also remonstrances and supplemental re
monstrances, all in time nnder the rules of
Court.
Tbe Court, after full bearing and careful
examination, has carefully considered each
case as presented, and lifts given that due re
gard to Ihe number ami character of tlie J
titiotiers for and renioiistrtince against grant
ing license as liearing on the question of
necessity (that being the only issue before
the ourt) as nvpiind by the Act of Assem
bly of i.'ith May, IvC, and. having judicially
considered the several cases as they would
any other question before them, and not by
the exercise of a mere discretion, as nnder
tlH'ir oaths they conceive it to lie their duly
uinier the act of l.s-.7. they. do now, on the
prejs itiderain-e of ev idenee made by remon
straniTS as viewed in connection with the
etition, anil a.lditi.mul petitions, refuse
iich of said applications.
PEB f't'BIAW.
After the license question was disposeil of
by the court Wednesday, the argument list

Cornelius Berkley, an aged resident of Jef
ferson Township, and one of the most widely-known
men in the county, was found
dead in a field on his farm, less than one
half of a mile from his house, Mon.lay morn
ing. Saturday morning he came to Somer
set on a sled, iu company with his neighbor,
Mr. John ltruner. After (pending the day
in Somerset, they returned to Mr. Bruner's
tlie same evening. Mr. Berkley got off the
sled at Mr. Bruner's barn and started acroos
the field to his own home, about one-half
mile distant. He never reached his home
alive. a. his dead body was found in the field
a short distant: from the road, Monday
morning. He was a minister of the (ierman
Baptist Church, and his non-apvaranceSat-uniay
evening did not alarm his good wife
any, as she supposed he bail to -d at one
of Ihe neighbors' close by the Kimmell
church, where cotnmnnion was to be held
Sunday. When Sumlay and Sunday night
had assed around without her husband
coming b.mie, or sending her any
word, she began to become alarmed,
and early Monday morning went to one of
her nearest neighlwrs to inquire if they knew
ought of his whereabouts. It was soon
learned that he bad been with Mr. Bruuer
Saiuniay night and had started through the
terrible snow storm that was then raging
across the fields to his home. Surmising
that some accident had befallen their agnl
friend, the ntighboi quickly organized a
searching party who, some time towards
noon, discovered the object of their search,
lying face downward in the snow, in a field
a short distance from the road. The weath
er was bitter cold Saturday night and the
snow was deep and whether the old gentle
man was ovenvme by the cold and storm,
or whether bis death was from some other
cause, such as paralysisor heart disease, can
only be conjectured.
Rev Cornelius Berkley was aliout seventy
years of age and enjoyed tlie respect and es
teem of a very large circle of friends. '
His remain will be interred in (he ceme
tery at Ihe Middlecn-ck church at 10, o'clock,
Wolncsiiay morning.
It may seem to parents that one or two
half days absence from school for their Ixvy
or girl during a month is of trifling imjs.r
lanre. but whep tju-y stpptp consider wbat
it means when Soft school children are
eon jcrnei) if each, is alluwed to be absent
oucecif twice during the nionth.Ute question
will assume a difiVrent phase. Nothing eni
harrassc a teacher more or inquire the efil
ciency of the school more than alisenteiiiiMu
and tardiness, and parents are requeued by
teachers to attetid more closely in heraaftur
their children in this matter.
We have a number of unpaid accounts on
our books. We need tlie money, and need
it now. We hope tlie persons from whom
they arc due will pay them without our hav
ing to make a iemnal call on them.

Union Temperance Praise Meeting
There was a t'uion Temperance Praise
Meeting, trader the auspices of the W. C. T.
C, held at the Disciple cbarch. ou last Sun
day evening. The house was filled to over
flowing, and the service were quite interest
ing. The meeting was conducted by Miss
Belie Kimraell, President of the W. C. T. V.
A number of prayer were offered, and
s;ieecbca made by Revs? Bash, Shearer and
Conner, ami the president of the Union. All
the speakers expressed gr.at gratituIc to the
Almighty for the Temperance victory gained
through the court, in rejecting ail tlie appli
cations against which tlie re were remons
trances. Mis Minnie Craver in a very pleas
ant and effective manner, read the poem en
titled, " Over tbe Hill to the Poor House."
Tbe following resolutions expressive of the
sense of tlie meeting, was adopted unani
mously by a rising vote:
Whereas, the temperance people of the
County have gained another signal victory
in the license contest. In this, thai of the
ten applications all were refused but three, j
and these three were granted simply because
there were no remonstrance against them ; ',
therefore be it resolved :
1st. That we heartily congratulate the
Temperance people of the County the men
and women of the respective districts where
the applications were from fir the grand re
monstrance tbey sent to the Court, whereby
the enemies of Temperauce were so over
whelmingly defeated.
2d. That we especially congratulate the
friends of Temperauce in the boroughs of
Somerset, Meyeriale. I'rsina and Contin
ence for the increased interest tbey took this
year iu defeating the applications of license
in these distiiets; and we feel ix.nti.lent that
their labors in this behalf will be abundant
ly rewarded by greater Sobriety and iietter
order iu their midst, and by the other innu-
nierable blessings naturaily (lowing tin re-
from.
3rd,
I ami every mau is liable to ib s (t j cer
That we exceclingly regret that the ! tain that neitiier of the Pennsylvania Seiia-
good, moral. Christian citizens of
and Conemausih tnwiv-hitis were so
Ad.lisim
indiffer-
ent to tbe cause of temperance in their milt
as not to reisinl their eamest protests against
tlie legalizing of the Rum traffic in tlieir dis-
trii ts, and that by their inactivity affor.led
the euemy a partial, though we trust, a '
sbort-!ivsl triiimi'h.
itb. That amler the colL-tnietion of the
new license law by our Court, tlie temper- I
ance people of the County have it in their j
Hwer hereafter to defeat every application
for license, if tbey bat do their duty in every :
district from which application shall he j
made to the Court.
5th. That we reganl it to be the duty of
the friends of Temperance to oppose the
manufacture and sale of all intoxicating
liquors, as a beverage, in every ptvsible and
legitimate way ; and that until there is total
abolition thereof by Constitutional Amend
ment, or otherwise, for which we earnestly
laliorand pray, we shall do our utmost to
defeat the granting of license by tlie Courts,
through the exercise of local option, in the
way of remonstrances, which is the only
remedy the law now affords us.
Tliese resolutions were unanimously
adopted an.l requested to be published in all
the County papers. Co.

From the spewrht-s thus for made in the
.Senate untl the Hone, it is n dirtirult tt
iliAtinuixIi the line ui-on which the im(en
(hng rresitleiittal battle will he fought. The
lippublican will take strong L'nmtjtb a -a:nit
any material reduction in custom dulit-.
ami will advocate the rveal of toha4vo tax. f
This will be clearly antaonitic to the Dcru-
oc-ralic pusitiuii. TUeu the Ki-publiransi will
a.iail the IemK-ruoy a. U-iii);upiiiMtl to the
inttrL-t of Lalmr, citing, in the first place,
its opposition to tiie pnjw:lion to iiuliiitry,
ami. in the wcotnl plm-r, its trt-atmeut of
Tint-he, the wurkinwen's can-iiilite for
Congress, who was refuoil a heariiij in his
contest f jr Speaker Carlisle's seat. Later on,
as pensjim l-gi!ation pMreres, the ppiha
bilitiees are that the PrrsiJent's constitu
tional aiitazouism to the soliliers will niani-fi-rt
itself, ami this will develop into an i.tie
of tbe bmailest chararti-r. Then, the outli-k
is that the stupid and nn-Anioriean Foreign
polirr of the Administration will be vigor
ously attacked liefiire lonir. thus ilwtdnpiiig
this qnentton into a drilled political factor.
Oihet fctiiH's will of course arise, but npon
these four alone tlie Republican party ran
safely ap(eat lo the country, 6 this combi
nation will array airain! the Di-niiKracy

likely that all of them will be successful.
