Indianapolis, Isu, Feb. 24. General Harrison punned a very quiet Sunday, taking bis usual walk and attending di vine servk-e at the First Prebyterin Church. Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. McK.ee his daughter, accompanied him, and the fait that this was his lust Sunday in Indianajiolis caused a larger congrega tion than usual. The ehorch wascromd ed w hen the party entered, and every eye was turned toward them as they slow ly made their way to their family pew in frout of the altar. The music mas selected with special re fere nor to the event. Pastor Haines delivered a short but eloquent Fcrmon, without any reference to Harrison. At the elore the minister turned Lis eyes upon the President, and, after a moment of impressive silence, spoke as follows : PASTOB HAlNSf' WORDS OF PRAISE. Before these services choe I cannot but bear in mind that which is prominent in the minds of ug all the t-ct that this is the last service prior to the departure from among us of one who for more than a third of a century has been identified with this Christain church as a member and anofficer. Certainly it is not unfitting when long tried and honored members go out from ns for a season to places of in fluence and responsibility that weahouM tender to them the heartfelt assurtnee of our God speed. I am sure it would be a grief to the memliers of this church were I to fail to break through the sileneeof this pulpit in its relation to the peculiar ex citement of tbe past six months, and permit you, sir, who have been so long and so intimately associated witk as here in Christain life and work, to go out without one word or expression of our earnest wish and prayer. This is not the place or time for words of mere congratulation, however sincere. Our sense of personal esteem and gratifi cation over your election to the Chief Magistracy of the nation isovershadowed to-day by the necessity of separation and especially by tbe sense of the serious, the solemn responsibility that is to be laid uH.n you responsibilities which no uian on earth Unqualified to meet in his own wisdom and strength. You go forth to meet tluse responsibilities, carrying with you, as you well know, the un swerving confidence as well as the warm personal regard of your fellow Christians. We have learned to believe in your per sonal intergrity, in your tested, establish ed Christian character. I sgieak for all tbe members of this cburrh when I say that we will hold yoa anil yours tenderly in our hearts, aud we will reuiemlier you at the throne of grace in our prayer, beaeecbing that God of Nations unto whom our Others looked to guide you by his counsels, to shield you by his promises, to enrich you with hi-aveuly wisdom and make you perfect in every good work to do His will. A KEI EITIOS AT THE l HI Ki ll ISSIE. As tbe congreation was dismissed a number of ladies and gentlemen gather ed around the Harrison party, but the congregation taade no move toward leav ing, and ariangemenu) were hastily made for a reception at tbe door. The -'aisle was cleared and the party moved to the door. As they stood near the entrance each member of the congregation press ed their hands and spoke a word ofpart- in aa he passed out. The President elect and his w ife were visibly moved by the " God bless you " of their friends, and their eyes were moistened with tears during the half hour that tbey stood at tbe door. Tbe evening at the Harrison residence was without incident, though a number of personal friends called to speak a parting word. THE PBOGBAw FOB TO-PAY. The Oneral will leave his home at 2:15 p. m. to-morrow, escorted by Governor Hovey, Major lenny and other distin guished citizens.

THE PBESIDEVT-ELECT LEAVES rsntAXA POLIS. IsdiasapouxIsd, Feb. 25. This city wore a gala appearance to-day in honor of the departure of General Harrison for Washington to assume the do ties of Pres Somerset SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY, ident. Many building in the business portion of tbe city were gayly decorated with Sags and bunting, while the star and stripes floated from staffs on the tops of many others. Trunks and par cels were leaving the Harrison residence aii the morning, but about noon the packing had been finished and the fam ily began to don their traveling dresses. General Harrison's time waa pretty well occupied with receiving the constant stream of callers m ho came to eay good by, many persons coming in from the surrounding country. At 10 o'clock the General received T. S. Qnincy, President of the Coiumereial and Traveling Men' Republican Clnb or C'hicr.go, who called to present an elegant grip-sack, donated by tbe club. Mr. O'Jinfy'e speech was briefly responded to by General Harri son, who thanked the club for its sup port and for its handsome present. As 2 o'clock approached the streets of tbe city began totfl up, and Pennsylvania street was soon thronged with thousands of ladies and gentlemen anxious to par ticulate in tbe farewell demonstration to the President-elect. (iOVRSNOR IIOVKV ASP MAYOR KENNY CALL. At 2 o'clock sharp (iovernor Hovey and Mayor lenny dre up in front of the Harrison residence behind a pair of white horses drawing a handsome car riage, the private turnout of Mr. J. C. Shaffer, a personal friend of the General. Governor Hovey and the Mayor alighted and walked arm-in-arm up the pathway to the door, a here General Harrison met them and cordially t-hook hands. The ceremony was entirely informal. Gover nor Hovey said they had come to perforin the very pleasant duty of escorting the General to tha station on his eventful trip to Washington. A crowd of a bnn dred or so people stood on the sidewalk and in the yard watching Ihe departure of the distinguished party. THE GENERAL LEWE4 HIS HOMB. Shortly General and Mrs. Harrison emerged from the houe, preceeded by the Governor and Mayor. The tienerai occupied the first carriage wita Governor Hovey and Mayor Penny, and Mrs. Har r sjn and Mr. and Mrs. Mt-Kee occupied the next carriage. A string of carriages and a thousand or more people followed the carriages down Delaware street. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed along the route. Groups of people cheered enthus-iaj-t'cilly as the carriages drove by, the General constantly tipping his hat and waving his hand farewell to some old frien l w hom he recogniied. E;' IHTED BY GK'ilK.E H. THOMAS ro.1T. At Foil Wayne avenue the procession left Delaware street and crossed over to Pennsylvania street, which waa lined on either side the entire distance. Cheer after cheer went up as the (ieneral pass ed. When Ohio street was reached the throng was innumerable. Here the vet erans of George H. Thomas Post were in line, among theiu being General Lew Wallace and many other well-known men. They were accompanied by a military band, and as the General's car riage drove up they opened ranks, and a cheer went up from the thousands of people that was beard for many squares, and notified the other thousands that the General had reached the city. From this point to the station it was an impene trable throng. The buildings were black with people. At the intersection of Mar ket and Pennsylvania streets the mem bers of the Legislature were drawn up in line, and as the carriages passed through the open files the lawmakers cheered lustily. They then fell in line and escor ted the General to the station. (IENERAL IIARKISOSS PARTING SPEECH. It was 3 o'clock when the party reached the Union Station, where a crowd of fully 10,(X) awaited them. The General and his party were escorted to their car. The great throng continued cheering, and the President-elect presently appear ed on the rear platform, accompanied by Governor Hovey, who introduced him to the crowd and called for order, which lie ing partially secured. General Harrison said : "My Good Friends and Neighbors: I cannot trust myself to put in words rhat 1 feel at this time. Every kind thought that is in your minds und every good wish that is in your hearts for me finds its responsive wish and thought in my mind and heart for each of you, I love this city. It has been my own cherished home. Twice before I h ive left it to uis cbarge public duties, and returned to it with gladness, as I hope to do again. It is a city on who-ie streets the pompous displays of wealth are not seen ; it is fall of pleasant homes, and in these homes there is an unusual store of contentment. The memory of your favor and kindness will abide w ith tue, and my strong desire to hold your respect aud confidence will strengthen me in the discharge of my new and responsible duties. Let me say farewell to all my Indiana friends. For the public honors that have come to me I am their grateful debtor. They a ive male the debt eo large than I can never discharge it. There is a great sense ot loneliness in the discharge of high public duties. The moment of decision is one of isolation ; but there is One whose help comes even into the quiet chamber of judgment, and to His wise and unfiiling guidance will I look for direction and safety. My fam ily unite with me in grateful thanks for this cordial good-by, and with me wish that these years of separation may be full of peace and happiness for each of you." THE PRESIDENTIAL TRAIN STARTS. The speech was received with cheers. At its conclusion the General re-entered his car and the train at once proceeded.

The thin! ia the car " May wood," one of the ordinary Pullman sleepers a fit companion, however, in point of con struction and adornment to the others in the train. In this car are a portion of tbe ESTABLISHED 1827. friends accompanying the President elect. The last ear is President Roberts' pri vate car, No. 120. It is -finished outside in dark red, and bears the words " The Pennsylvania" on the eiwnice over the windows. The platforros are so arranged aa to allow tbe members of the distin guished party to view the scenery with out sufferiir- diatximfhrt Inside rich curtains and handsome brass and nickel trimmings make it appear a veritable Oriental palace on wheels.

From Pitts burgh to AHoona. the first division on the Pennsylvania Road projier, was made without accident or incident, save that thirty minutes of the lost time was made up.

The officers of the train, on engine No. 84, wbicii hauled the cjr up tbe western slope of the Alleghenies, was Alex Pit cairn; the conductor waa John Pitcairn, while the Superintendent's personal rep resentative was Ed.

PITTuBCR'iH WAS ASLEEP. There was no demonstration of any kind at Pittsburgh, the only persons in the train shed being railroad employes ami a few early passengers who chanced to be In or about tbe station. A PrFP FOB ASNETTE. At Jeannette, the young Windsor of Western Pennsylvania, it hail been ex pected by the enterprising manager that an exhibition of the gas wells would be made, but no stop could be permitted. Seven months ago there was no house on the site of what is no a bustling, thriv ing little city. DIDN'T THEY SEK JOItNSTOWS ? Tbe faint gray streaks of dawn met the eyes of the early risers on the train as tbey dashed over the sufcitnit at the beau tiful park of Cresson, and then there was an awakening by a majority of those aboard in order to wttrtess the beauties of the famous Horseshoe Bend, between there and Altoona, which were greatly enjoyed, especially by those who for the first time gazed upon them. THE CHEEKY LUtilMLATCRE. At Pittsburgh a telegram was received from the committee Ol th I'e acayl vania Legislature appointed to ask the President-elect to visit the hall of the House? of Representatives while in Harrisburg, in order that the members of the Gener al Assembly might pur their respects to the coming iiead of the Republic ax Excmno back. All the way up and down tbe mount ain side there was a race between the two sections of the train, in which, aa stated, the second or official section- recorded a gain of thirty minutes of the time lost west of Pittsburgh. It wasa gloriom run and in the bracing air of the high atti tudes, it was thoroughly enjoyed by those who were awake. t ALTOONA GETS THE GO-BY. A change of engines and crews for the middle division was made just before Al toona was reached, in order to save time at the station. Superintendent McClel lan came on board with Conductor Long while engine No. 1,10:5, with Engineer Jones in charge, was at the front. The train ran slowly through the yards, not at any time stopping. It left here at C:55. LIMING TIME AGAIN. II AumsRt in.. Feb. 20. The time gained in the run to the Altoona yards was par tially lost by the delay occasioned in remedying a misfit of the couplers join ing the first two cars of the train, and tlie Presidentiol section No. 2 pulled slowly through and out of the station at Altoona at 7:13, thirty-five minutes be hind schedule time. "Just enough to make a nice run," remarked Conductor Long. "We'll get there if the first sec tion will keep out of the way." Hut that bad been the trouble ail the way from Indianapolis. The first section would maintain its exasperating habit of block ing the road, but a change was promised here, and tbe lively rate of s;ed at which tbe run over tbe division was be gun indicated tliat the promise would be kept No stop was made at AHoona, where the railroad shop hands were out in force along tire tracks, aud several hundred citizens were gathered at the station to wave their greetings. INCIDENTS OF THE FLYING TRIP. At Bellwood, seven miles east of Altoo na, a company of men, with a large flag, stood alongside the track, and at the junction, where a branch leads off to the coal mines of the Clearfield region, and at Tyrone Forges there were crowds of people and flags were displayed. At 9 o'clock the day had fairly begun in car No. 120, and General Harrison and immediate family aat down to breakfast, whence they viewed the gatherings of people at Mount Union, Lewistown Junc tion, Mifflin, Newport, Duncannon, and Maysville, as they sped along toward Harrisbnrg. . Tbe party in the press car took break fast as the train ran its way along the banks of the "Blue Juniata," the beauti ful scenery adding much to the delights of the meal. Tbe table waa adorned by a handsome bouquet of roses,which came with the compliments of Mr. Harrison. THE P. B. B. BEATS THE WORLD. Superintendent McCleilan's promise that the train should reach Harrisburg on time was redeemed, the cars rolling into the depot promptly at 10:30, in the presence of a great assemblage ef people who were kept outside the gates. AT THE PENNSYLVANIA CAPITAL. Habbwbcbc, Feb. 28. There was a great crush at the Pennsylvania Railroad station when the Presidential train reach ed it Tbe committee appointed by the Legislature to extend (ieneral Harrison an invitation to visit the Capitol, board ed the train, but the General was unable MARCH 0, 1889. to comply on account of the train being scheduled and not permitting a stop. Meanwhile the crowd outside were clamoring for the next President to make his appearance, and Mr. Harrison, ac companied by the visitors, went to the rear platform and spoke a few minutes. It was his intention not to make a speech . but urged by Col. Bean, who succeeded in calming the excitement by a wave of his hand, General Harrison consented and said : THE GENERALS INTEBEST IX PENNSYLVANIA. My Frtnui. I want to thank yoa for this friendly demonstration. The State of Pennsyl vania has an espeeial interest to me among the States. Not many mile from here, in one of your beautiful valleys, near the town of Merversburg, was my mother's birthpUve. I am glad this morning to receive at the bands of my fellow-citizens of Pennsylvania this cor dial greeting. It is very pleasant to know that I shall carry with me to Washing ton the good wishes of so many people. Cheers. I thank yon again for your friendliness, and will beg you to excuse the attempt to apeak further in the midst of so much confusion. MiVERNl8 IIEAVEK'S REGRETS. Governor Beaver returned from Phila delphia too late to see General Harrison. He telegraphed his regrets to Baltimore. A HEAl'Tirt'L FLORAL BASKET. York, Pa., Feb. 20. Just as the train was pulling out of Harrisbuiy, a gentle man handed up to Russell Harrison a beautiful floral basket made of Marechal Neil and La France rosea, with sprays of fu-a hia and buncbea of carnation pinks and hyacinths. AS AMBITIOIS AMATEt'R PHOTOGBAPHEB GRATIFIED. As the train left behind it the venera ble city where (ieneral Harrison's grand father was nominated for the Presidency, the General, Mrs. Harrison, and the mem bers of the family remained ont npon the platform some little time. The tiain was moving slow when a bright-faced boy, wearing a knit cap with tassel, and carrying a small photographer's outfit, r in beside the train and called out to tbe General tbat the train would stop shortly and he wanted to take his picture. The General nodded his approval and watched the zealous lad with interest as he kept pace with the moving train. Opening the door, the General called Russell and his wife and Mrs. McKee and Mrs. Lord to come out with him and Mrs. Harrison and have their photograph taken. Of course they all complied, wh ile the nurses held Benjaoiin and Mary McKee up at the window, Russell's baby Marthena being in tbe other car at the time. Finally the train stopped at Bridge port Junction, just across the river, and the young amateur hastily adjusted his tripod and, waving his hand for them to prepare, he uncovered the lense for a moment and then politely doffed his cap. The train moved op a little and so did the boy, and. coming closer, he se cured a second picture. The General in quired his name and he said it was Hugh Beaver, whereupon Mr. Russell Harrison opened the gate and assis'ed the little fellow up the steisaud the General shook his hand and told him to give his regards to his father, tbe Governor. As the train moved off Mrs. McKee requested the young artist to send her one of the pho tographs, and be promised to do so, "pro viding," said he, ' I have secured a good picture." These were the only photo graphs of the (ieneral secured since his departure. DOWN THE NOUTIIERX CENTRAL. From Harrisburg to Baltimore the ride was over the Northern Central Railroad, and the train pulled out of Pennsylva nia's capital city at 11, attached to engine No. 17, in control of George Rule. J. C. Hammell was conductor and Trainmaster O. Mill had general supervision of the, train as the representative of Superin tendent Kapp. On the way down to Washington the train ran ahead of the new special put on for inauguration bus iness, and therefore had no trouble in keeping strictly op to the schedule time. At New Cumberland, Oolilslioro, Mount Wolf, and York Haven the scenes com mon to all towns of like size along the route from Indianapolis were repeated, and the train passed York on time at 11:23. ARRIVAL AT BALTIMORE AT 1:13. Baltimore, Feb. 2'i. The train bearing President-elect Harrison and party to Washington arrived at I'nion Station promptly at 1:15 this afternoon. A tre mendous crowd was assembled at the depot and thousands were on the bridges overlooking the Pennsylvania Riilroad tracks. There was a stoppage ol bnt a few minutes for the purpose of reversing the train, and the Presidential party started on the last stage of its journey amid a storm of cheering. THE GENERAL LOOKING VERY TIRED. When the train rolled into the depot, the President elect and Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. McKee appeared on the plat form of their car and the ten minutes' wait was consumed in shaking hands with the hundreds of ladies and gentle men who clambered up the steps aud hung on to the railings to get a close view of the Presidential party. Their recep tion was quite enthusiastic. Mr. Harri son looked as if he had had a tedious journey, ami was evidently very tired. TItE JOt RNEY ENDED. Washingtox, Feb. 2li. The train with General Harrison and party on board did not proceed to the station, but stopped at Maryland Avenue and Ninth street at IXi p. m. Tbe party took carriages and were immediately driven to the Arling ton Hotel. Washington, February 2G. General Harrison and his party arrived here to day at 2:35 o'clock P. M. Tbe train did not proceed to the station, as was expec ted, but stopped at Maryland avenue and Ninth street, whence the party took car riages for the Arlington Hotel. In anticipation of (ieneral Harrison's a crowd of several hundred persons as sembled in the waiting rooms of the Pennsylvania Railroad station to catch a glimpse of the President-elect Tbe crowd in the station included a number of ladies. As the time at which Gener al Harrison's train was due drew near the crowd was augmented by quite a number of loungers, who strung along from the lower end of the railroad yard down the tracks. A squad of police kept them from wandering inside the yard and maintained a clear passageway for the President's train. eraj About half-past 2 o'clock word waa gtwen by tne railroad men that the Presi dent had alighted down at Maryland avenue and the crowd slowly dispersed, some laughing at the way in which they had been eluded, while others took their disappointment more keenly. A few persons were indisposed to leave, howev er, thinking it might be a ru.se to get them away before the President-elect ar rived, and it waa not nutil the train slowed into the station aud it ,was seen that its occupants were the train officials alone tbat those few left the station. the pasty took lcncii. At Baltimore, Train Master Bell was in general charge of the train and H. J. Myers was conductor. Whether because of their propinquity to the permanent locale of Presidents aud consequent lack of curiosity concerning them in ja-we or in esse, or from other cause, the train commanded less attention there than on any other part of the route. The occu pants of the train turned, their attention to the lunch and then to preperations for debarking. Engineer I.owe not only "pulled the throttle valve wide open, " as has been sometimes remarked on sim ilar occasions, but he. "laid the lever away back on the tender," and at 2-'i0 the train drew up on the track along- aiite the freight hoiLse. Ninth street and j Maryland avenue, at which point the executive committee of tha inaugural committee was in waiting w ith carriages for the travelers. With as little delay as might be Gen eral Harrison and party were seated and then driven rapidly to the Arlington Ho tel, w hera they at once sought the priva cy of their apartments. Others on the train were sent to their several destina tions in the city after g-od-byes had been said, and the trip of the President-elect to the capital was at an end. It had been accomplished in twenty-three hours and eighteen minutes, .vithotit a single mis hap and with great comfort. BEIMEi.F.D BY CALLERS. The big van piled high with trunks be longing to the Harrison party did not arrive at the Arlington Hotel sooner than the first visitors to see (ieneral Har rison.

A large quantity of mail was at the hotel awaiting the arrival of the party, and Mr. Halford and his stenog rapher were kept busy devoting what ever time they could get to its examina tion. .A.

Every intelligent mind understands that a bath at least once each week is es sential to health, therefore happiness, but all mav not know that a rough skin i is greatly improved by more frequent ab lutions. It is said that attendants in bath hous es have skins as smooth as satin. Doubt less they learn and practice the art of keeping the skin clean and healthful. The amount of time and labor for this simple hygienic performance is not great, but the thing that is lilRcult is to estab lish the habit of daily bathing and fric tion. This done the greatest obstacle is overcome. The custom of a cold sponge bath on rising followed by brink friction "beside increasing beauty, g ies far to sustain health and ward off disease. The vigor and elasticity thus imparted are known only to those who practice it, and tbe habit once well established will not eas ily be relinquished. A word of caution may be neeesnary.a X is not wise for all ieop!e under all circumstances to strictly adhere to this rule. But for the well, th moderately well, and the semi invalid beginning with j warm water, if neceseary, and gradually reducing the temperature to cold, good results will surely follow. As a preventative sgainst taking cold, cold bathing is excellent. Jenny June says a warm sjionge bath at night, and a cold siunge bath in the morning has been her custom since elev en years of age, and to it she attributes much of the good health that has been hers to enjoy. Tbe many little ar's to keep up the complexion, to give a soft youthful glow to the skin, were better laid aside or never commenced arid the bath I have mentioned substituted. Good sense is always on the side of a sure foundation, and it is better to build upon what is truly your own, securing beauty, or retaining it by natural meth ods than use artifices often more or less questionable.

The present is a bright spot between the' darkness of the Iuture and the twi light of the past. Happiness is often at our side, and we patis her by ; misfortune is afar off, ami we rueh on to met her. If you would find a great many faults, be on the lookout ; if you would find them in still greater abundance, be on the look-in. Strong in the goodness of bis oause, with his back to the throne of God and his foot on the rock cf truth, a man can stand against the world. Nothing sharpens tbe arrow of sarcasm so keenly as the courtesy that publishes it, no rej roach is like that we clothe with a smile and prent with a bow.

In presenting this annual report for the year 1SHS, the Directors, as well as the citizens of the County, should be congratulated and thankful, that during the year no pestilence or contagious dis ease was visited, or accident happened at the County Home, to create further suf fering among the inmates. Tbe Poor House ia fast becoming what it was orig inally intended to be, a home for the poor and unfortunate in life, instead of merely an asylum or place of confine ment for those who have been bereft of their reason. Since the Art of Assembly was pawl creating the Committee on Lunacy, with power to make rule, with the approval of tbe (iovernor and Chief Justice of the Commonwealth, and one of -the riles wisely adopted to prohibit the keeping of any insane as the Poor House who have to be confined for a longer period than seven days, but must be removed to the Hospital fir the inaane, either at Dixmont or Hnrrisburg. Also, the pas sage of the Act of Assembly of l-3, pro viding that no children between the ages of two and sixteen years shall be kept or maintained at the Home. The Erectors, realizing the wisdom of the laws, have acted in accordance therewith," thus re lieving the Poor House of the insane, and all children, making it more com fortable and pleasant for the aged poor, and quiet for the sick and afflicted, as was intended by the framersof the orig inal law. FARM AND Bt'ILDINGS. During the year the Directors have erected porches on the East and West end of the main building, which have greatly addec) to the appearance of the buildings, and are a comfort to the in mates, and a convenience to all. The buildings are all in good repairexcept the wood-honsp, which, owipg to its being so poorly const rncted, must be taken down and rebuilt in the near future. The farm has been limed and is now in a good state of cultivation, and is pro ducing well. The exchange of land made with Samuel Trent, with the approval of the Court, has placed the farm in much better shape, and is quite an improve ment. Tbe improvements made by the Grand Jury at their last visitation, will lie con sidered and acted upon the ensuing year. The farm and buildings never have pre sented a better appearance, and were never in better order. STOCK. The stock on the farm la in fine condi tion, and will rompare favorably' with any in the county.

There were twelve deaths at the Home during the year, all of whom reached a good old age. Some were great auffrrer tor years: and when death came it was a relief, rather than a sorrow. One of the number, John Moore, was a noted char acter in the ilitys of stage coaching, and the many thrilling adventures and do ings of his, have become household sto ries, and will be handed down for many years to come. He was well known by many citizens of the cr.unty. At the time of his death he was 74 years old, and committed to the Poor Ujuse Sth Nov. 13.
