While a number of young men were stroll ing among the wilds of "break-neck rocks" Sunday Ihey unearthed a lot of clothing, pen knives and boots and shoes that had been hidden there early in the winter, as was evident from the rotten condition of the clothing. All the al tides were new when placed under the rocks but were entirely ru ined by exposure to the weather. The goods had evidently been stolen and were con cealed among the rocks by the thieves who failed to return for their plunder. Mra. Carrie HelSey, second ilaughier of ex-Cwunty Treasurer John II.

A Washington telegram of Friday says : For several weeks Mrs. Mckinley, wife of tbe popaiar Ohio Congressman, has ben uniler medical treatment here, and at one time grave doubts were entertained of the result of her illness.

Meyer, agent for tlie fa mous John R. Ji A. Murdtxk nursery estab lishment. Pittsburgh, had his spring deli very last week. He had taken orders during the late fall and early spring and the quantity of gootl be bad to deliver lait week was simply sm iling. Mr. Meyers' success from the time be first entered the nursery busi-ni-ss has been almieit phenominal, when the number of agents traversing the county in the same line of business is considered. The rtock be handle is all first class and is es lieciaily alaited to this climate. Vben in need of trees, plant or shrahhery you will make no mistake in giving your orders to Mr. Mevers. Mr. M.ises Trent received a letter daring tbe week from his friend Frank Klein Mer.st announcing the death of the hitter's wife and youngest ctitld at their borne in Lima, Ohio. Mr. Kleindienst wrote from his sick bed where lie is confined with an attack of diphtheria, thesame malady that caused tlte death of bis wife and child. Mr. Klein dienst was tbe original Landlord of the Cen tral Hotel, at this plane, and his wite was one of the most beau tilul and sweet tempered ladies ever a resident of this town. The family have many friends in Somerset who will sympa thise with Mr. Kleindienst in his sad be reavement. A rumor is in cirvulation about town this, Tuesilay. rooming, to the effect that four men were discovered trying to effect an en trance into the residence of Wendell Win ter, near Griffin Station, on Friday night. Tliey were discovered by Mr. Winter and his son, who occupies the same house, ar.d onleml off. The rascals then went to the smokehouse and were in the act of carrying away a quantity of meat stored in that building when tbe younger Winters opened fire on them with a revolver from a window in the dwelling bringing oneof the thieves to the ground. Persons residing along the line of tbe Somerset & Cambria Railroad report having seen three men car rying a fourth along the track Friday eight, ev iiiently badly hurt. W do Dot place much rrolence In tbe above story, as Griffin is only about five mile distant from town, and if such a rob nery bad beer, attempted and oneof tbe rob ber wounded, Mr. Winters would, in all probability, have made it known to tbe offi cers of the law king before this.

The as-oount of the robbery and diabolical torture of Ciiiistian Yoder, a published in oar last iasae, has created no end of specula tion among the thousands of readers of this journal thoroaghout tlie county. Persona who have traveled over the eounty during tlie week report that but little else is talked about other than tbe Vmberger and Yoder outrages, and that a feeling of distrust is minuest in almost every household. Stran ger are regarded with curious suspicion among ocr hitherto unusually hospitable people. The report goes that it Is ncit thing to impossible to secure a night's lodging without first producing certificate of good character, and even after that all of tbe stranger's movements are regarded with dis trust. While each passing week furnishes an additional chapter of crime in the county the feeling of alarm is not likely to dimin ish, nor will it diminish until more strenu ous efforts hare been made to bring the guil ty criminals to justice. Mr. J. A. Willis, who has kept a public house at Markelton for a number of years, met with an accident at that place Friday morning that mi-y cost him his hie. The east bound local freight bad drawn np to Markelton station a few minutes after 11 o'clock and the train's crew were engaged in shifting a cumber of cars. The train bad been cut, and Mr. Willis, who is Bi yswrs of age had one foot on the platform of the pass enger car attached to tue rear of the train, w hu ll was standing still at the time, and was just in the act of drawing himself to the plattorra when the first section of the train crashed ag.iinst the second. The unexpected jar threw the old man under the wheels of the car which passed over bis left lej sever ing it below the knee. A number of people were standing on the station platform and witnessed the accident. Mr. Willis wa car ried to his borne when medical aid was sum moned from Itockwood and Confluence. A lew additional particulars in relation to tbe Yoder robbery will prove interesting. After the household had been bound tlie ruflians first went through the pockets of Mr. Y oiler and the hired man, Stcvanns. Nothing of value was found on Mr. Yoder, but on Stevanus a watcb was found which was carefully wound up for the night and then replaced in the pocket of its owner. A Ave dollar bill was also found in one of Stevanus pockets but was replaced ty tbe rascal who held him up with the remark. ' you work bard for your money and we won't take anything from you.'' After Mr. Yoder had been dragged to the ham with bis hands securely tied behind his back, a rope was produced and fastened around his neck. Ha was then akel, in lace of a inmt horrible death, to tell where bis money was hidden. On his denying that he had any more about tlie house the rope was placed in his mouth and he was jerked from his feet hard against the beam a!sve. A handful of hair was extrae'ed from the hard wood with which the old nun's head came in contact, tbe following morning. Ureal ridges were raised on either side of his face while the corners of his mouth were laid bare by the sawing of the rojie. Mr. Yoder himself says that lie thought bis time had come to die. After all the diabolical means at their command had been resorted to ami failed to extract any more wealth from tlte half dead old man, the villians packed up several bams and other edible and mounting Mr. Y oiler's horses rode away. Mr. Yoder expresses the hope that tbe money stolen from tbe hired girl may la? re covered, but is no ways anxious about the recovery of thai stolen from himself as lie is averse to appearing in a criminal suit. While a party of Johnstown young men were passing along tbe river bank in the neighborhood of the old slack w ater " dutu at Conematigh Furnace, Sunday, they dis covered the body of a man lodged among the driftwood. Tbe body was removed and a Jastice of the Peace summoned who at once impanelled a jury to hold' an inquest. The body was examined and proved to be that of a German about sixty year of age. It was somewhat decomposed and bad prob ably Iain iu the water for sometime. An envelope was found in ihe diad man's pocket addressed to George Sterns. Sipes ville, Somerset County, Pa." Another en velope contained the name of W. M. Mc llowell. Perry av ille, Ohio. On" the reverse appears tbe folliowing memoranda: " Fare to Pittsburgh H.R5, cash, $3.t)U, t7.St. $3.50, $1 "si. Seventy-one cents was all the money found in the two pocketbooks found ou his person. After viewing tbe remains and examining the wiluesse whs found tbe body a verdict was rendered that the deceased came to his death by drowning. A batchelor about the same age and tally ing with the above description, and answer ing lo the name of George Sterns lived for a number of years with Jonathan Rhoads near Sipesville. After Mr. Rhoads' death several years ago Steam worked al cobbling in tbe neighborhood of Edie, but not being of sound mind soon drifted into the county ptr home. He bad been at tbe poor house but a few weeks when a sister at 1'ert vsviile, Ohio, wrote offering him a home with her and enclosing money to pay his exiarnses lo that I 1 ace. He went lo Otiio and nothing more has been beard of bim until tlie an nouncement of his death. The ptr demen ted man was evidently returning to bia old home when death overtook bim. Literary Notes.

When a yottng son of William Ifanna, ho resides near Ilarnedsriile, In Addiaon towuship. visited bis father's barn shortly before noun Monday morning, be was grat ed by a strong smell of tobacco smoke on entering that building. On examination be found that the fumes proceeded from the hay mow, on which two strange men were lazily .stretched. Returning to the bouse be acquainted his father with his discovery. The elder Hanna took up a double-barreled shotgun, and going to his barn ordered the stranger off tlie mow. At first they mani fested no disposition to comply with the summons, but when the fowling piece was leveled at them they obeyed a second re quest promptly. In explanation of their presence in the neighborhood the men said they were ou their wsy to Continence, expecting to secure work on tbe railroad under construction along the bank of the upper Y'oughiogheny river. Satisfied with the explanation offered, Mr. Hanna perniit the men to go on their way. Each of them carried a well filled sack, while one carried a jug. The men s-.rnck Coniluence and visited several stores in thst town. Paring the day Mr. Hanna went to see his brother Johu, who lives some three miles above Con Huen re, near the river, and there learned for the first time the story of the robbery of old man Yode. H at once told his brother of the two men he bad driven from his barn in tbe morning and suggested that they might have been the guilty parties. Mr. Ihjs Augustine happened iu ai Manila's at the time, and while the three men were engaged in talking the rvbhtry over, the two j men that Wm. Hanna had driven from his barn in the morning passed the bouse. It was al ence decided to foliow tbe men, and place them under arrest. They were son ovel taken, and submitted to arrest witliout offering the least resistance. At this juncture John Walker and A. B. Flanegan, who were engaged in driving a cow to town, chanced along. With such a strong force to guard the captives, no thought was given to the fact that they might be armed. One of the prisoners was placed in the bug gy with Mr. Augustine, while the other was put on a horse to ride behind Mr. Johu Han na, when the entire party excepting Win. Hanna set out for Continence. When about half the distance to that place had been cov ered, Augustine's man asked permission to get out and get a drink from a stream that crossed tlie r.cul aneau oiltiem. jtis request was granted, but not until Mr. Augustine had taken the precaution to stop his home twenty or thirty leet before reaching the wa ter, when he bade his prisoner go quench his thirst. This he proceeded to do, and getting down on all-fours, submerged his entire face in the babbling brook. On rising to his feet he first attempted to shake the dripping wa ter from his beard w ith bis hand, when the thought of a hanilkerchief seemed to occur to him. One was not to be found iu either of the ockets of his coat, and reaching back to his Lip pocket for the misplaced wipe, aa Augustine supposed, the robber drew forth a shining revolver and pointing it iu his cap tor's fa"e. quietly remarked: "Now, you ct out of that wagon and hold up your hands 1' " I lost no time in getting ont." says Mr. Augustine, " and when he shoved the pistol, which seemed the brightest one I ever saw, in my face, and coolly commanded, ' Now,yvrj gel over that fence and make tracks across the field!' I complied without stoppi ng to argue." In the meantime the man on the horse behind Mr. Hanna attempted to throw that gentleman to the ground, and as he had somewhat of an advantage frotn the start, he succeeded in doing so. Both rider became entangled in the harness, however, and were engaged in a desperate st niggle for the pos- ; session of a revolver in Hauna's pocket when t tie robber s con federa te came lo h is assistance and relieving Mr. Hanna of his firearms, compelled him without much solicitation lo climb the fence and hurry after the Ueeiug figure of Mr. Augustine. Mr. Waiter, who bad fallen somewhat in the rear of the pr. cession, seeing the cammo tion in the road ahead of him, put spur to his horse and came hurrying to the scene. " Gel off of that horse 1'' commanded one of the sptives. now turned raptor. " I-ikeh 1 I will," replied Walker. " Get off of that horse, or 111 let the light through votil" and the bright, shining re volver glistened before his eyes. Mr. Walker speedily dismounted, and was soon hurrying over the field to join Augus tine and Hanna, whiie the dcinte rtifliana mounted the horses of Hanna and Walker ami gall.. !-d up the river road toward the village of SmilhhV.d. After riding some eight or ten miles, the robber tied the horses and took to the woods. Next morning, it is said, they took breaktast at a farm house some four miles above Smith Held. Messrs. Augustine. Hanna and Walker soon made the story of t he arrest and escajie of the robliers known, and a large party turned out during the night and uiaile a fruitless search for the rascally thieves. Augustine and II anna made a very lucky escae after tliey were once in the tower ol the robbers, if the report thai the former had over two thousand, and the latter considera bly more than one thousand doflars about their persons be true. Both geiilieineu have long been engaged in the live stork busiuese and are among the best known and wealth iest men ol the county. There is no longer any doubt that the robbers who so brutally tortured old man Yoder and robbed him of his money are memliers of tue " McClellaudtuwn gang." nor is there any doubt but that the nun who wens arrested and made their escape from the Addison turtles were of the same party. The bags winch were left behind in theahrajri tlighi of the robbers were found to coutaiu each a lam, butter, sugar and other edibles Mr. Cal. Coitghenour's horse, which was stolen from its owner's bam at an early hour Sunday morning, was recovered tiie follow ing day about a mile from Siuithfield where it iiad been abandoned by tbe thieves. A I'niontown dispatch in a Pittsburgh pa per of Friday, says, a twelve-year-old son of Charles J. 1-ew is the leader of the McCleliand town gang, who has been taken in custody by tiie Fayette authorities, says that his father led the gang who committed the Yoder outrage.

A resolution was adopted by tbe Conven tion "to work energetically to oppose tbe threatening Prohibition Amendment by ex erting all their powers to indict on it a we'd deserved defeat on June 19th." Joruutaten Traaiis. Tbe Indiana Jjeascew says thai at a meet ing of cue of tbe beer eluh of that town a few nights ago a straw vote was taken on the Prohibition Amendment. Fourteen voters were present and ten declared in favor of the Amendment and only four against it. It ia stated on good authority that the men will rote on June IS just as they did when the "straw" was taken. S.1LOOS3 ix A Pbohibitios Statc The Prohibition jonrnat admits the correctness of the following statistics of saloons in that Slate: One hundred and thirty-four liquor dealer in Portland. 127 in Bangor. 5o in Lewistown, 30 in Bath, 29 in Rockland, 23 in Bar Harbor, 21 in Biddcford, 17 ia Cardi ner. and heaven knows bow many in York, Augusta, Belfast, and other cities and towns in the Stale. The figures ot the United States internal revenue office show that there are cities and towns in Maine in which I license money is paid to the government for t tli. i!tt f ltjtnnr Mi),l thpro is inff ininiint of it sold witliout such formality. There has lieen a prohibition law in Maine for the last M years. The law is oinIy and flagrantly violated. It has no more respect in the cit ies than the Sunday closing law in Illinois. A legislative inqniry is aked but denied. Everybody in Maine knows tlie law lo be a sham, and so treats it. If Pennsylvania votes Prohibition this year, will she do bet ter than Maine in restricting the sale of liquor? The West moreland Vtuweral says : A Sfiecial iiispatcb from Stonerville, Friday last, say : Kev. VT. R. Covert, pastor of the Church of God here, produced quite a sen sation in his congregation !a--t evening, when during bis discourse on the " Moral Issue of the Constitutional Amendment" he said that if he knew of any of Ihe mem bers of bis church to work and rote against the amendment he would refuse to admin ister the communion to them, the same as he wculd to tbe slaveholder or any other moral criminal. Continuing be said: "Tlie man who votes for the manufacture, sale and use ol alcohol as a beverage, was just as guilty as the man who engaged iu the act, and there fire, they are not mondly entitled to com munion in the Church of God. I know that the members of my church would ob ject to a horse-thief communing with them, anil yet the crime of horse-stealing does not produce one-tenth of tbe moral, mental and physical suffering in a community that the li"Uor traffic does. Why, then, should we give communion to the greater of the two criminals ?' Mr. Covert has a large and wealthy con gregation of over 9x members here, and his advanced position on the tenijiemnce issue has caused quite a sensation. A I.iqroR Obit lab 1issptep. Botifort's " Wine and Liquor Circular," of New Y'ork, has fallen into the writer's hands, from which he quotes the folio wing : We mut defeat the Pennsylvania Amendment ; it is too important a State to lose. The moral effect of a defeat in that contest would be incalcu lable. I: would demoralize the trade from tue Atlantic to the Pacific"' Let Bs examine this question and seewhat the liquor dealer acknowledges and fears. The cry by those opposed to the Constitu tional Amendment is that "Prohibition does not prohibit." The four sentences quo ted from the liquor circular is an otn ac knowledgement that it doe prohibit. Why do the New Y'ork dealers fear the adotion of the amendment? Why do they say the amendment ttttift be dtfeafed? Because of tbe asvrui tfect they acknowledge prohibi tion will bring to Ihe people of otir great State. They admit that the prohibitory amendment would be effective, by saving that it would demoralize the trade from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Someuf our people argne if we have pn hibition our neighboring States will send the h-jiinrs into this Slate, and liutl the out side dealer wii! have a bonanza. Stop ! Let us examine. If such were true? would the liquor dealers of New York recite in a circular what we quote ? Would a circular have been issued al all ? No ! They know by experience the effect of Kansas and Iowa be ing lost to them, and hence they are fighting the cause, SrLa. SoiieasiT, April 20, 159. The Secretary of the Commonwealth has notified the County Commissioner of the State that he baa ordered from the State Printer the necessary ballots for the special election in June, The Secretary has also sent a circular letter of instructions contain ing the tonus of the necessary blanks which wilt have to be distributed to the election boards and ether information. The circular states that the Sheriff shall make his proclamation in tiie usual man ner. The County Commissioners are in: me diately to have all blanks, tally lists and form of return properly printed, and at least five days before tie; election cause the same together with the ballots, to he Ciirly distrtb- uted among the election board t. Toe Com missioners shall also furnish each hoar! a copy of the last registry of voters. In dis tributing the ballots the Commissioners are to be guided by the total registered Tote therein, sending three "proiiitntory amend ment" ballots for each voter. They must be iu equal numbers for and against the amend ment. Each election district should be pro vided with two ball-it boxes. Tiie election shall be opened, held and closed on Jane Is, at the pluces at which general elections are held. It is the duty of the election officers to receive separate tickets either written or princd. frjtu every q ttliti.-J voter wh i may offer the same, and to deposit them in a box or boxes provided ; which tickets shail he printed separately, one labeled on the outside "Prohibitory Amendment to the Constitu tion, " and on the inside "For the Prohibito ry Amendment ;" or "Atainst the Prohibi tory Amendment ;" the other labeled on the outside "Suffrage Amendment to the Con stitution, " and on the inside "For Ihe Suf frage Amendment, or "Against the Suf frage Amendrrent." The returns of the elec tion shall be made in the usual manner. Editor Herald: In your "For and Against Column "of last week's paper ap pear a clipping from the Pittsburgh P.t, which gives the number of Tailed States tax stamps issued to liquor dealers in Kansas through a series of year. For the year IS.7 the no ruber is given at !K, and it is meant that the inference shall be drawn therefrom that prohibitory law are a Hat failure iu Kansas. The figti res given by the I'M are probably truthful as far as they go, but. Mr. Editor, you well know that tlie veracious journal, tnie to its nattiral instincts, never tells more truth in matter political than just serve its ptirpse. which in this instance is to make it appear that the prohibitory laws are ojienly violated all over tlie State of Kan ss. and are no good. IIa.1 it told all of tlie truth, it would have let its readers know tliat the prohibitory laws of Kama are just and reasonable ; that they only seek to oproot Use use of liquor as a beveraje that they do wot seek to deprive the people of tbe riht of obtaining liquor for medical, scientific or mechanical, or ary other purpose except aa a leverage, ad Hist within tlnse limits the i sale is permitted, and druggists and other j merchants are licensed hi tell them. Under the laws of this United States all droirg'sts and other merchants who sell liquor, alcohol or even patent medicines which contain al cohol. Even a country store that might want to sell a'tcobol for use in the niarhani- ca! arts are classed a retail liquor dealers and must pay the special tax ; and tliey do pay it, But that does not make them saloonkeep- er. by a long way. Beanse they comply with the laws of the Cnited States mnst not be accepted as evidence that they are violat ing the laws of Kai.sj., as the FoH would Lave its readers believe. We feel certain that If a proper deduction were made from tba figures given by tbe Psut for those who are legally authorized lo sell for the parposes permitted by the laws of Kansas, that the number of actual violat ors of har laws a.aor.g the balden of these United States tax receipts will not reach one fourth of the number that the Fmi would have it appear. Then. too. since W! the law has been more vigorously enforced in some of the dark spots of the State, and as the pjst is careful not lo give any figures for 1 we may safely infer that it would not make its : case any the stronger. In the face of the ! testimony of the Governor of the State, and j a host of its lea limr citizens, the Pw! must j look elsewhere than Kansas for proof that j prohibition cannot be enforced. W. !

Liquor Licenses May ba Transferred Only by tho Authority Grant ing Them. Chief Justice Paxson. of the Supreme Court, explains why the court refused to is sue a mandamus commanding the lower court to transfer the liquor license of M. Blumenthal to his widow. The court holds that ihe privilege obtained by the license is personal and and not assignable unless au thorized by act of assembly. The act of 1S7 is silent on the subject, and that of l-el-i gov erns in the matter. The latter act provid-rs that a license may be transferred by the au thority granting it on compliance with the requisition of tbe laws. This leave the transfer discretionary with the court grant ing the license. As it appeared in the peti tion that tlie petitioner had had a hearing before the judges of the court of ipiartirr ses sions the Supreme court could secure for her nothing more. The President's Mall. The number of letters received by Presi dent Harrison so far is larger than the num ber received by any of his predecessors in an equal time. Private Secretary Hal ford, be ing interviewed on the Oth of April, is qu -ted as saying : " The correspondence is de cidedly heavy, ranges from V to 7IJ a d ie. Three times did our daily mail exceed lr, though we have not yet reached four figures. Our lightest day was last Tliurs lay, w!im something less than jut) letter arrived.
