Death of John Henry Dibert.
Within recent years says the Johnstown
Tribune of Friday evening this community;
has experienced many sorrowful surprises by
the unexpected deaths of prominet citizens.
The announcement t his sneming of the death
of John II.' IHbert was more tliau a surprise
it was a severe shock. Scarcely anybody
outside of the circle embracing his immed
iate relatives and friends knew that be vat
ill. Of robust, hearty, and genial presence,
lie was regarded by all as a perfect picture
of good health the least liable of the more
generally known people of the town to be
quickly summoned hence. Add to tbia tba
fact that he was at his desk in Ms placa of
business as usual nntil noon on Tuesday, and
It can be easily understood why it waa that,
as the aad ..announcement of his death
spread throughout the citv, people looked at
one another in amazement, half doubting it
correctness yet apparently fearful of its truth.
Aud true, indeed. It was, the summon com
ing shortly after 12 o'clock this morning.
" The cause of Mr. liibert's death was in
flammation of the bowels. He was taken
tick at nooa on Tuesday and waa compelled
to go to bed. Medical assitanue was at once
summoned, but the treatment administered
afforded him no relief, his condition growing
hourly worse. Frequent consultations of
physicians were held yesterday, and every
thing that medical skill could bring to bear
in his case was tried. At supper time last
evening he seemed somgwhat easier, aud his
attendants though they recognized a shade
of improvement iu his condition. They
were, however, mistakcu, for, as the evening
wore away, his sufferings again increased,
until finally, exhausted and unable longer to
continue the terrible struggle, he calmly re
signed his spirit into the hands of his Crea
tor. Deceased was bora in this place on the
8th of Jaiiury, 18J1. In Feb. l!71 he enter
ed the banking house of John Dibert & Co.
as a clerk. On the tirst of August. Is7'., he
was admitted as a member of the firm, and
so continued until his death.
In addition to his duties at the bank which
he discharged with the most scrupulous
fidelity and exactness, Mr. Dibert rendered
very efficient service to the Borough of
Johnstown as its Treasurer during severs!
consecutive terms, having last spring been
re-elected for thecurrent year.
He also took great interest in Masonic
matters, and his connection with that Order
gave him anexteiisiveacquaiiitaneethrough
out Central aud Western Pennsylvania, as
well as generally throughout the country.
Onlliel.MU olOctoiier, ls73, Mr. Dibert
and Miss Kate Hamilton, daughter of the
late Samuel ltoyer, were united in marriage.
The union resulted in three children Roy
er, Blanche and John who, with their
mother, are left to muum a moat affectionate
father and devoted husband.
Mr. Dibert had f Oio insurance on his
life 2,5O0 in the Northwestern Masonic
aud $1,000 in the New England Mutual.
Mr. Dibert had many warm friends in
Somerset County, and iu the town of Somer
set, w ho will be pained to leant of his un
timely death.
Base Ball.
It was a most distressing exhibition that
the "Maroon" ball club showed their triends
and nitrons last Wednesday afternoon when
they were advertised to play a friendly game
with a club from Ligonier. It was not alone
disheartening to see the boys play so miser
ably, but to witness the discourteous treat
ment thf-y showed the visitors. Because the
clubs were as unevenly matched as liabies to
giants, is no reason why the victors had to
be hooted and jeered at every point, not only
by the small boy sympathizers, but by many
members of the club itself. Nor was the
umpire sireil ; his every decision was dis
puted and his style of dress commented on.
Only five innings were played the game be
ing called on account of rain, but in the en
tire five innings only one of the "Maroons"
and the smallest boy in the club at that
was able to find the ball. If the "Maroons"
will accept a little well-meant advice they
will practice for a few weeks with the school
children on the Academy green, and then
challenge well not Ligonier Meyersdale.
The score stood :
Maroons, ..3

It is a good deal easier in such weather as
this to advise people to keep coo and not to
get flurried or hurried or worried but to
possess their souls in patience than it is to
carry these excellent precepts into practice.
At the same time it is the simple truth that
while the mercury hovers in the neighbor
hood of the nineties the only thing to do is
cultivate as far as possible the philosophic
spirit and to be as leisurely and deliberate in
all one's doings as the circumstances by
which one is surrounded will admit. It is
no use to fret and fume and to consult every
thermometer one sees as to the record old
Sol is making. Keep cool in mind don't
drink too much ice water and wear a flannel
shirt and the unavoidable discomfort of the
heated term will be reduced to a minimum.

The Log-Cabin Songs.
The " log-cabin " aud " hard cider " cam
paign of 140 ia without parallel in tbe
history ofthe country. Martin Van Buren,
nicknamed " Utile Van,'' and William Hen
ry Harrison, affectionately called " Old Tip,"
were the candidates of the Democratic and
Whig parties respectively. Tbe song writers
were with the Whigs during that canvass,
and tlie people were with tbe song makers.
The Whigs everywhere held great and enthu
siastic meetings. Miniature log cabins were
constructed, with tbe stars and stripes float
ing over them, and invariably beside the
cabin door would be seen a keg bearing ths
rubric, " bard cider." Stump-speaking was
all the rage. The newspaper and the tele
graph were not at they are now. Tbe peo
ple came from near and far to the barbecues.
The country rang with the name and fame
of General Harrison. . Tbe more the Demo
crats, with their disciplined partisan hosts,
ridiculed the Whig, whobsd no tqcb splen
did organisation, the more fervid became the
supporters of Harrison. The young men
caught the sell of patriotism and song.
Whenever thers was a political gathering
for Harrison, banners and transparencies
were produced, with lines addressed to the
candidates like this :
" Farewell, dear Van,
You're not our man ;
To guide the ship.
We'll try old Tip."
The more the shouting, singing camiaign
ofthe Whigs was jeered and sneered at, ban
tered and burlesqued by the Ilemocrats, the
iutenser became the enthusiasm of the Har
rison hosts. Song-writers sprang up all over
the country. No political meeting was com
plete without its cainign music. Song
books with the popular verses were publish
ed. It often happened that the most taking
songs were written within an hour or two of
a meeting, and suug to the delighted crowds
by the composer. Sometimes the words were
entirely impromptu, and local, and person
al to a degree, and carried everything before
them, with their homely and hearty allu
sions, plain phrases, and loyal lines to their
favorite. Always some well-known and
popular air was chosen, and the words usu
ally admirably suited the purpose. The peo
ple took up the refruiu and it was sung by
thousands at the hustings, in the shops, and
stores, and fields, and along the highways.
Seamen sung them when hoisting sail or
anchor, they were com man along the tow
paths ; harvesters varied their toil with the
winning words and music, and all ranks and
classes and colors repeated tbe rhymes and
bars of the campaign. One of the most pop
ular song of the campaign was the following :
What has caused the great commotion, 'mo
tion, 'motion.
Our country through ?
It is the ball a rolling, on, on.
For Ti ppecanoe and Tyler too Tippecanoe
and Tyler too,
And with them we'll beat little Van, Van
Van.
Van is a used up man,
And with them we'll beat little Van.
Like the rushing of mighty waters, waters.
On it will go,
And in its course will clear the way
For Tippecanoe and Tyler too, etc.
Let them talk about hard cider, citler, cider,
And log-cabins, too, .'
'Twill only help to speed the ball
For Tipecanoe and Tyler too.
The latch-string hangs outside the door, door
door,
And is never pulled throngh.
For it never was the custom of
Old Tippecanoe, etc.
Another favorite was " When this Old
Hat Was New," aud it was printed with a
picture of a somewhat ancient cliapeait.
Some of its stanzas were as follows :
When this old hat was new, tbe people used
to sny, .
The best among the Democrats were Harri
son aud Clay ;
The Locos now assume the name, a title most
untrue,
And most unlike their party, when my old
hat waa new.
When my old hat was new, Van Buren was
a Fed,
An enemy to every man, who labored for
his bread ;
And if the people of New York have kept
their records true,
He voted 'gainst the poor man's rights when
my old hat was new.
When my old hat was new, the friends of
Liberty
Knew well the merits of old Tip, w hile fight
ing at Maumec ;
Come, now, huzza for Harrison, just as we
used to do.
When first we beard of Proctor's fall, when
my old hat waa new.
A verse of another favorite song, was as
follows :
Have you heard the news fom Maine ?
All honest, straight and tree.
How it went hell-bent for Governor Kent,
For Tippecanoe, and Tyler, too.
. The colored people bad a version of their
own. It was:
Oh, say. have yo' heard de news all aroun' ;
How de Whigs get up an' de Locos go down?
Sich a gittiu' down stairs yu nebberdid see ;
De tyrant's down, de people's free.
Another rhyme, very popular with the
colored people, was :
Dar's Delaware, too, has gone for de Whigs,
An' de blue hen am a dancin' jigs.
Another was :
" Old Tip's the boy to swing the flail,
Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah ;
And make the Locos all turn le.
Hurrah, Hurrah, hurrah.
He'll give them all a 'tanial switchen
When he begins to 'clar the kitchen,
Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah, hurrah.
And still another was :
" On Thursday tbe sun shone in splendor,
On Friday rains fell and winds blew,
But none of us cared for the weather.
True soldiers of Tippecanoe. ,
"The East and '.he West sent their thousands.
The North and the South poured in too.
As if Heaven and Earth were all moving
In honor of Old Tippecanoe.
" We marched thro' the streets of the city.
And bravely we tramped the mud through.
To show to the silk stocking gentry
How we'd slick lo Old Tijipecanoe."
"The air is all filled with bright banners,
Green, white, purple, red and true blue.
With inscriptions and mottoes upon them
Iu honor of Old Tippecanoe."

The Ticket Pleases Confluence.
ilr. Ed'dtir : ThetHjicagoConventiou plac
ed in the field a ticket that for Republicans
is pleasant to contemplate. The nomination
of General Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana,
and Hon. Levi P. Morton, of New York,
meets the universal approval of Republicans.
Their nomination was not an accident or
even an afterthought, but the matured will
of the Convention, honestly expressed. Long
before the Convention convened the name
of General Harrison was so prominently and
so favorably before the people, tliat it was
being ssid that bo was bound to be either the
first or second man on the ticket. The tick
et will certainly command the respect, con
fidence and support of all ths Republican
voters.
The nomination of Harrison and Morton
takes tbt State of Indiana out of the list of
doubtful states snd places It surely and safe
ly ia tbe Republican column. When Indi.
ana goes Republican, New Jersey follows
suit. With Indiana and New Jersey in the
Republican column, the State of New York
could not reverse the result ; but with Mr.
Morton on the ticket that state is more like
ly to be Republican than Democratic. Blaine
lost the state by only a few votes, and they
were not cast for Cleveland. Taking Into
consideration the tariff issue and the excep
tionally good ticket the Republicans have
in the field there is no reason -w by we should
not win this falL Somerset county will give
2,600 Republican majority, and Pennsylvan
ia 100,00. X.
CosKLisscs, Pa., June 30, ISf-8.
Two Gavels' Presented to the Con
vention. The first gavel was presented on Tuesday,
by the redoubtable Horr, uf Michigan. It
Was made of lumber, copper, wood, iron, and
salt, illustrating what Horr railed tbe five
industries of tlie country. He asked the
chairman to use it in pounding the daylights
out of the Democratic l-arty . The chairman
discreetly remarked that with it he would
pound the life out of that party. A second
gavel was given to the convention on Wed
nesday by E. W. Montgomery, of Galena,
III. He said that it waa made from a piece
of wood taken out of a desk found in a tan
nery in Gulena. It was the desk used by V.
8. Grant when he was receiving $,suo a year
for his services. The chairman ofthe Illin
ois delegation expressed the hope that it
would be used iu tanning the hide of the
Democratic party after Horr's gavel had
knocked the lift- out of it. The thin! gavel
was presented on behalf of Chicago Republi
cans by Mayor Roche, of Chicago. It was
garnished and as gorgeous as dresses usually
worn by Chicago women. It was made of
gold and silver and studded with jewels.
Roche said it illustrated cnide and skilled
lalior.

farmers who have investigated the matter
have come to the conclusion that the cattle
were maile sick by the biles of insects that
fed njsjn the carcasses of the dead hop.
