Pr. A.J. Edsley"s son-in-law, Mr. Abner
McKinley, a impular summer resident of Som
erset, is Secretary and Treasurer of the Na
tional Printing and Telegraph Company,
whose general offices are M and 171 Broad
way. New York. The object and system of
the Company is lmrneM from a neatly print
ed jiamphlet that has recently come under
our observation and that will no doubt prove
interesting to many readers of the Hekalp.
This Comaiiy proposes to do away with all
electrical telegraphy inventions now in use
and supplant them with their ajijiara'us by
means of which mesaes can 1 transmitted
and rororded in plain Roman characters.
One would naturally think it impossible to
transmit priuU-d characters five hundred or
a thousand mile over a tingle wire, yet
when the system of this coroany is under
stood, it beromes simplicity itself. In it the
impulses move the instruments, whereas in
others, the instruments move the impulses,
or in other words, the transmitter is caused
to ruu by separate poaer, each letter of the
alphalwt being represented by certain num
ber of impulses which revolve Uie tie
m heel to tlie repaired position, when the let
ter is struck by the local mallet. Fourteen
impulse represent the entire alphabet, thus
securine rapid printing. The recipient lias
nothing to do with the ojn-ration of trans
mitting nietae- The shifting from letter
to letter and line U line is holly automatic
no attention whatever being mjninrd at the
receiving station. The receiving instrument
can be instantly converted into a transmitter
by simply turning a small nwilch. enabling
an immediate reply to a message that lias
been recorded on the receiver printing tlie
reply directly under the onery, thus provid
ing a complete record. If tliere be one hun
dred or more instruments in a line, the type
whet-lsofal! can be instantly brought to
unison point. Actual work has been done
by this system between Pittsburgh and New
York and Philadelphia and New York which
demonstrate its succewi beyond question.
The advantages of tbe Printing Telegraph
system my be briefly stated as follows :
1st. It is an electrical type-writer by means
of which the message is printed in the pres
ence of tlie transmitting ojeratar In page
form, and a duplicate of the same is printed
at all receiving stations on the line, whether
it be a long or short circuit.
2nd. It is news printer, by the use of
which the rtirrent news may be distributed
for the benefit of tbe iw in tlie various
lewspaper cfliees. A single tranvmiwioa
prints the same simultaneously, in paar
form, ready for the compositor's ease, in all
tbe newspaper offices in tlie city. .
No previous training is necessary to oper
ate it, and no attention whatever ia requir
ed at the receiving stations farther than tlie
collection of message by clieck clerk to b
copied and sent to delivery detriment.
MoKages can be sent and received dt.r or
night without the presence of the person for
whom the messages are intended.
It is the pntpose of this Company to or
gauial in the various tows and cities sub
companies which shall eve ntually combine
by building lines from point to point thus
establishing a general telegraph exchange
system.

John Mnrphy, aged 21, son of Francis Mur
phy the temperance evangelist, last Tuesday
eloped with and married Lucy Richanlson,
daughter of one o Louisville's wealthy
citizens. When the RicLardsous beard at it
to void talk the young couple were taken
to tlie bride's brother's and then remarried
by the Rev. C. U.' Hemphill, pastor or Iter
tuber's chuixb. They left at once for a trip
East. Francis Murphy says he knew of the
engagement and thought Mr. Richardson
consented. He himself was strongly opposed
to tlie, marriage now became the young man
had no settled buisness. Neither be nor bis
wife was present at either ceremony.
A surveying party, composed of County
Commissioners Xcff, Wagner and William
son, L. C. Colborn, Esq Earnest Kcoser and
Harvey Picking, started for the sooth of the
county Tuesday morning, where they will
be engaged during the remaining days of
this month in re-ealabiishing the lines sepa
rating the Sea tea of Pennsylvania and
Maryland and Pennsylvania and West Vir
ginia. 'It seems that some of tbe prop
erty owners, whose lands lie on both sides of
tbe line, make annual attempts to get all
their ground either on one side or the other
by moving the line posts, and to prevent
this tbe law directs that the state lines be re
run each year.
An atrocious outrage is reported from
Fairchance, about two miles from Vnion
town. Samuel Humbert, an old resident
of Fairchunce. was assaulted by masked men.
at bis residence midnight Saturday and sub-jet-ted
to great tortures to make him disclose
where his money was hid. At that hour
Humbert, who lives alone, was aroused by a
knock at his door. In response to his in
quiries as to who was there the men outside
aked for a drink of water. When the he
o(enl the door to comply with their request
he was seized and gas-'ed. Two rutTansthen
searched the house, but failed to find any
thing of value, whereupon they comanded
their captive to surrender his money and i
valuables. He insisted that he had no mon
ey. The two fiends then built a fire in the
grate and drawing the old mun up to it roast
ed his feet until they were blistered and
shockingly burned. Still the old man pro
tested that he had no money and implored
them to release him. They threatened to
set the house on fire if be did not confess.
After turning everything in tlie house upside
down and ripping up the carpet in their
search fur money, they bound the old man
hand and foot and dearted, Humbert, after
adesparate struggle freed himself and gave
the alarm. His neighliors quickly gathered
and organized a search arty to hunt the
rascals down. The fugitives were tracked a
considerable distance, and have it is said
been located. The community is greatly
excited over the outrage, and if the perietra
tors are found the chances are tlutt they will
be treated to a dose of western justice.
Widows aid Pensions.
Congress has just enacted that pensions
heretofore or hereafter granted to widows of
soldiers of the war of the rebellion shall com
mence at the date of the death of their hus
bands. This lobulation favorably aflVcts all
claims of widows of the late war which have
been filed in the pension office on or after
July 1, 1S), and which have been allowed
to commence from the date of filing the
claims; but will not favorably affect the cav
es of such widows as were filed before July
1. IS.), and which have been allowed, pen
sions huving already lieeu granted in those
cases from the date of their husbands' death.
The commissioner of pensions gives notice
that in the settlement of claims, under this
law already allowed, no formal application
will be required, anil that the services of at
torneys will not be necessary. Widows en
titled under said law ned only write a let
ter giving name, postofflce address and cer
titicatH number and the claims will be al
io 1 with as little delay as practicable.
The South Penn Case.
A Philadclphi dispatch says: The South
Penn case has at last arrived at a point when
some part of the testimony will be taken, and
bearings will begin on Friday of this wcofc
It was the intention of counsel for the Penn
sylvania railroad to continue the taking of
testimony and push the case through, so far
as the United States Court Examiner's work
was concerned, before autumn, but it is
probable that after a few bearings this week,
and next the whole case will go over lor some
months.
This morning Judge Logan, solicitor for
the Pennsylvania received notice from Mr.
Stetson, counsel for the Vanderbilt interests,
that owing to the illness of his w ife he would
lie compelled to leave for Euro) shortly and
asking that, after the first tew bearings, the
case be allowed tc go over until his return.
It is regarded as possible by the Pennsylva
nia's counsel that important documents will
be submitted as evidence this week, and that
the examination of several witnesses will be
made.
Meeting of the District Conference.
A meeting of the Conferees representing
the counties composing this, the Twentieth
Congressional Pistrict, was held at the Mer

T. Swank, editor of the Johnstown Trilnne.
and Hon. J. H. Longenwker, of Ilnlford.
After several ineffectual ballots bad been
taken one of Mr. Longriiccker's contVrces
withdrew his name from further considera
tion by the eonfrnwe. A ballot was then
taken and Mr. Swank was unanimously
elected. F. J. Kooscr, Esq., of Somerset,
and Mr. Mart. Bamdoliar. of Bedfiird coun
ty, were chosen as alternates. At a previous
meeting of the ContVrence at Altoona some

Mr. Samuel A. Rhoailes. generally known
in these parts' as " Sheep Sam.'' is again in
tl.e field, buying up abecp. TlKse having
sheep to sell would do well to consult with
him.
The Will's Cornet Band, which was dis
solved in December last has reorganized, and
is now in full blast. This is certainly one of
the best band in the county. They are well
equipped, having a splendid set of instra
menr. se veral of which are triple silver pla
ted, and uniforms that an? simply beautilul.
As this will be a splendid year lor puolic
gatherings, the boys may look forward to a
promising future. One of their members,
on being asked whether they would accept
a challenge, replied that tliey would always
be ready to accept challenges from any band
in tlie county.

What Shall We Do With the Dead
beat? EutToB HebaLD : The above question has
the merit of novelty.not liecause it is new.
but because it has never buen publicly dis
cussed. It cannot be called a public qties
tiui at all, and yet it is one in which every
individual who has dealings with the mass
es is interested and which be is trying in his
own way to solve.
The class of retail merchants is more sub
ject to the imositions of this social parasite
than any other; that they are so is mostly
due to the fact that competition is so sharp
and that there is so little co-oerative spirit
among them, and while this is the case, tbe
dead-beat is going alsiut, not like a roaring
Hon. but like a sneaking coyote, seeking
whose substance he may devour.
The dead-brat, reduced to a mathematical
expression, is a mean pnqiortionul between a
pauper and a thief; he is less honest than
the first, and less honorable than tbe second.
He knows how much tax he can levy npon
the industry and enterprise of others without
becoming a public ward, and he can calcu
late to a hair's breadth bow far he can go in
rascality and fraud without rendering biji
self liable to criminal prosecution.
Within these limits he has full swing and
practices his vocation with impunity.
With the dead-beat commercial tying is
held as a sacred duty and if he accidentally
tells the truth he feels that lie has done vio
lence to his principle and needs to repent.
His property is kept down to that amount
that the law will not touch it and be knows
every loop-hole of escape from tlie conse
quences of a dishonest act. He holds that
you are nnler an imperative obligation to
show confidence in him by giving bim credit,
and when you would limit his credit be de
nounces you as unreasonable and unjust and
lacking in manly principle.
When he cannot obtain credit on general
terms lie will outflank you by making a spe
cific contract which he violates the first op
portunity that occurs and you wake up to

Tbe article which appeared in the last is
sue of the Hbbald on the subject of 44 Fune
ran Occasions " was very good. We hope it
may prove beneficial to all communi
ties. Profs. Keim and Weller will open a nor
mal school at this place immediately after
harvest, so that teachers may have an op
portunity to prepare for the coming examin

one to two stories, and is making extensive

may have his bouse full to overflowing, for
it will be of great benefit to our town in
many ways.
Decoration day is numbered with the
things of the past. The community about
Centreville did not manifest that interest
which they should have done in decorating
the graves of our dearted heroes. We hope
wc will not witness this same neglect when
a like occasion returns.
Old Centreville is not quite dead, as is sup
posed by some. There is still a little life
there. Considerable repairing is being done
to the churches. The Reformed was paper
ed recently by a party from Roekwood, in a
very neat and attractive manner. It seems
the community is taking more interest in
going to church recently. The Lutheran
church seems to take the eye of all wbo visit
it since it is being repaired, and it will be
one of the finest pieces of work in the coun
ty. The frescoeing is being done by Messrs.
Sialter and Noll, from Pittsburgh, and they
unquestionably understand what they are
doiug. They are the same parties who fres
coed the Methodist church in Somerset. It
would be well for people to come and look
at this church, in order to see and know
what man can do.
On tba 30th of May Mr. Boose raised bis
new barn in our township, and as is usual
on such occasions in the country, a large
crowd of bis friends and neighbors assembled
to assist in the work. The framing was done
by a party from Pine Hilt, and every piece
fit to its place in the most complete manner.
Tbe barrt is of medium size, and will be a
great improvment to his farm.

Mrs. Itensal, wbo as Miss Rebecca Wright
gave General Sheridan the secret informa
tion on which be successfully captured Win
chester. Va., tells an interesting story of the
affair. She now holds a clerkship in the
Treasury Department at Washington, to
which she was appointed at tbe instance of
General Grant. Miss Wright was 25 years old
at the time of the occurence, and her family
was one of the few who had remained loyal
to the I'nion. Her father died a Confederate
prisoner, although a nou-coniliatant. Miss
Wright accidentally became acquinted with
a wounded Confederate prisoner, who was
boarding at Winchester, the town where
she resided. They conversed together on the
war. and in the course of their conversation
the Confederate let drop a great deal of in
formation about the strength of Genera) Ear
ly's forces, their disposition and plan of tbe
campaign. Miss Wright retained the partic
ulars in her mind, although having no ex
pectation of using them. General Sheridan
soon afterward secretly sent her a message
asking if she could give him any informa
tion about General Early's force. She wrote
out all slie knew, and it reached General
Sheridan in safety. Two days later the bat
tle was fought and Winchester was taken.
General Sheridan called on her and express
ed his thanks for her aid, as it was on her
information that the battle was fought and
probably won. One day in 1J7 there arriv
ed for Miss Wright a package containing a
gold watch, inscribed, " Presented to Rebec
ca L. "Wright, September I" 1M7, by General
Phil H. Sheridan. A memento of Septem
ber 19, 1801." Accompanying it was a char
acteristic letter of thanks from General
Sheridan.

Daclarsd Unconstitutional.
Haxbisbig, Pa., June 8. Judge Simon
ton to-day gave a verbal opinion to tbe effect
that tbe act of June, 1885, relating to the
election of county Tax Collectors outside of
cities, is unconstitutional. A collector elect rl
last spring presented his bond and its appear
ar.re was opposed by County Solicitor Ott, of
Dauphin, on tbe ground that the act mak
ing Tar Collectors elective, was a special law
respecting tbe affairs of counties and there
fore unconstitutional, because it limited the
operation of the general law, which existed
before its passage., so far as tbe collection of
connty taxes is concerned.
Taking this view of it the Conrt refused to
atBrrn the bond. The act was thrice affirm
ed as constitutional, baton points differ
ing from tbe one raised In this case.
