Lvit Friday a week, Jacob Meyers, a dis
tiller front BroadfrI, Westmoreland county,
accompanied by bis wife and their three
or four children, came on a visit to Mrs
Meyers father, !avid Cramer, who lives on
the line dividing Somerset and Fayette coun
ties. On arriving at tbe old farm-bouse, and
after 'how-de-doV bad been exchanged,
tbe cbiidren were permitted to play in the
fields. The old. rones returned to the bouse
lor supper, and. when asked by Ibeir anx
ious mother, "where is baby ?" a three-year-old
litt .e tot, that bad been placed in their
care, none of them could tell. A search was
at once male of tbe bam and outbuildings
and of the meadows in which the yoang
stiT bad been playing, but nothing could
be Ibutid of tlie miwing cbiid. Tbe neigh
bors were sent for and ajtprised of the mis
fortune that bad overtaken the visiting fam
ily, and by dark a psrty of forty had col
lected to hunt for tbe lust baby. The search
was continued throughout the nihtand tbe
em ''re day following without discovering tbe
slightest trace of the child.
A stream running through tbe farm was
dreihred Sunday, and the water drained from
a mill-darn, in tlie hope that tbe body of tbe
missing little on might be four,J. The ag
oniaed ' parents, assisted by a number of
friends, continued their aeafch throughout
tbe week, until Friday noon, when tbe bojy
of tbe poor litilr baby was fciund, drowned
in a shallow rrt bidden in awamp some
three miles distant from Mr. Cramer I
bouse.
The McCutcheon-Sanner Wadding.
If tbe ancient adige " happy is tbe bride
the sun shines on," be true, and we have no
reason for doubting it, then Miss Annie
Sanner a future will be filled with perpetual
happiness. Her wedding day, Thursday, was
rendered delightfully pleasant by tbe warm
rayi of a gorgeous autumn sun, and tbe cer
emony that change! her name to that of
Mrs. Thomas O. McCutc .eon, was tbe sweet
est ever beard in Somerset. The wedding
took place iu tbe LUsciplea' meeting-house,
tbe pulpit of which bad been tastily decora
ted with potted plants, with a background
made up of a great back of delicately -tinted
and crimson autumn leaves.
The meeting house waa crowded to ita
utmost capacity with the fsieod of tha hap
py young couple, wbea, precisely as the
hands of the sleety o'd clock on tha vail
met at tha hour of two tha organ sounded
forth tbe strains of tbe wedding march, to
tbe perfect time of which the groom, aceom
panied by bis best man, Mr. Charles Taylor,
of New York city, marched slowly down the
rilit aisle. Tbe raiment they halted at tha
right of the altar, tbe ushers, Messrs. Kirk
James, of O.I City, Ned Kiernan and Jack
Lindy. of Pittsburgh, and George Harrison
were observed marching up the opposite
aisle, followed by two pretty little misses,
Nellie Harrison, niece of tbe bride, and Re
becca Collier, niece of tbe groom, carrying
baskets of cut flowers. Next came the
bridesmaid, Miss Arnie I'M, and following
her came the bride, leaning on the arm of
her brother-in-law, CapU C. J. Harrison,
the bridal party took tiieir positions in front
of the altar, aud were joined by tbe groom
and bis best man, when in response to tbe
question of Elder Conner, " who gives this
woman away?" Cat. Harrison placed tbe
bride's band in thai of the groom. A half- :
dozen beautifully worded sen e ices, solemn- i
ly pronounced by the Elder sudioed to tie
the kttoc
Tbe bride wore a lieauiiful dress of white
slk en train, covered by tbe customary bri
dal veil, held in place by an exquisite dia
mond i in, ar,d in Ler bard she carried a
lovely bouquet of rosebuds.
The bri.losmaiil. Miss Chi, wore a magnif-
1C -tit lines nf white silk.
A reception lollowjd immediately after
the c-ren o y at lbs residence of the bride's
mot ier. in a room of which the mapy beau
tiful sn.l c tty resents were displayed.
Tbe bridal trip will carry tlie happy young
couple on a six we- ks' tour of the southern
cities, afier which thfy will return to Pitts
burgh, where Mr. MCutcbeon is engaged
with tbe well knewn iron firm of Lindsey
fc McCntchfon.
Miss Sanner was one of the brightest, pret
tiest, and most popular young ladies in
Somerset society, and the best wishes of her
many friends tliat follow her to her new
home all contain expressions of sorrow at
their loss.
A District Fair.
A movement is on foot looking to the or
ganization of a district fair association com
posed of the counties of Somerset, Fulton,
and Bedford, with the fair ground at Bed
ford. Tbe tn-juirer hopes tbe movement will
succeed. Bjt more energy and liberality
must cbaracu-rize the new management than
was found in the old if tbe fair, even under
such circumstances, is to be a success. Some
thing to see worth looking at outside of the
routine of exhibitions wiil mike tbe receipts
oa any day of the CUr equal to the best dty
of the late fair. Belvrd .lytio-e.-.
Tbe suggestion lias been mvle to have
next year's fair the joint prodjetion of Som
erset, Fulton and Bedford ciunties. This is a
good ilea, and it is to be hope.! that it will
be pushed to consummation. The Gazetu
sutrrests Jtmher that anew exhibition build
ing be erected, an I that it be' lighted by
electricity and kept open at night, after tbe
manner of the expositions in all parts of tbe
country. The exhibition could be run for a
full week an! would nut seriously be aflect
ed by bad weather. If Somerset and Fulton
counties will jiin uj. tbia plan could be car
ried out successfully, Iledfvrd Gaittte.
Railroad and turnpike facilities between
tbe three counties will hardly permit of a
venture such as is suggated above. It would
be ' too oxpenaive."
Rev. Danks Suspended and Repri
manded. The Cwrt of Inquiry of the Methodist
Conference, which baj before it the case of
Col. Hanks, made its resrt to the confer
ence oa Saturday. Tbe report stated that
the court had foin.d tbe accused guilty of tlie
charge of immoral conduct in thrvatning tbe
I f? of a fellow nun. a i l in defamation of
character, aud atfi l td as a penalty that be
be suspended from the ministry for one year
and be repremanded before tbe Conference
by tbe bishop.
Bishop Fosa called the veteran soldier and
preacher In-fore the attar and administered
the reprimand kind'y anj sorrowfully. Col.
Danks returned to bis seal, where be ra
mi tied throughout the meeting with bow
el brad.
Col. Ianks says Be will not accept bis sen-
tence, but will take his case to tlie Cjurt of
Ap;teals, which is comT-ised of members of
different conferences. He says he is simp'y
being bounded to death by a cliq'te.

Advice for the Chronic Kicker.
Tbe following bard hitter we clip from an
exeban and no truer words were ever
written : "If you are a kicker and see the
shadow of a failure in everything that is pro
posed to help the town, for heaven's sake go
out into some secluded canon and kick your
own shaJ jw upon tbe clay banks, and thus
give the men wbo are working to build Dp
tbe town a change. The long faced, hollow
eyed w binning", creeping, chronic kicker
can do more to keep away business and cap
ital from a town than all tbe drouths, short
crops, chine j bogs, cyclones anJ b'.izztrds
combined."
Sightly Mixed.
The Pittsburgh Ovjurtrk of Monday contain
ed tbe following : A. H. Rupptl, J. R. IScott,
VaWitine May, Al Holliert and 3. H. Che,
attorneys of Somerset, are in town to attend
tbe sittings of tbe Supreme Conrt,
Judge H. L. Baer and ex -Congressman
William H. Koontz, of Somerset, are staying
at the Motiongahela.
Dipbtlieria in its worst form is playing
havoc with tbe lives of little ones in Gailitx
in, Cambria CoEnty. During the past two
weeks the average number of deaths was
three to four per day, and the d.Kttors report
at least fifty cases down with tbe disease in
tbe town. Four dm lies with six or seven
little one one month ago, now are childless
from tbe sweeping fans-s tbat fastened their
death dealing substance upon their little
ones. At the instance of a meeting of the.
borough council, which was called by Bur
gees Tom Burns for tbe purpose, a commit
tee was appointed to investigate all cellars
and inspect all drainage in order to prevent
the ravage.
C. A. R. DAY.
Berlin Entertain the County's Vet
erans In Royal Style.
Friday will always remain a red-letter day
: in tije 1, Orour neighbor town, Berlin,
j aaJ rigbt royally did tbe citixena of that
; ;-t A !!! ih G. A. IL bova
of tbe county, who were her guests. The
day was perfect. Io fact, if the managers uf
tbe reunion had aat up nights since the
Fourth of July studi ing theHagerstown Al
mscar.fcrid bad been in hourly coramunica
tion with the Canadian weather prognostica
tor, Venuor, they couldn't possibly have se
lected a day with more sunshine, which we
believe goes further than anything else un
der heaven to make a crowd happy. And
there was a crowd there, too , a larger crowd,
perhaps, tbsn had ever been seen in Berlin
before. A poshing, j igging, dusty, perspir
ing crowd, that ate, drank, and were merry.
We wouldn't intimate for a moment that It
was a drunken crowd, because a drunken
man wasn't to be seen throughout the day,
but ft was a crowd that had come together
for a good time, and they had it in a good
natured, orderly way.
Tbe crowd commenced to gather at an
early hour even for Berlin and the sound
of martial music filled the air. The town
was handsomely decorated with bright col
ored bunting and American Hags, while all
of tbe roads leading into it were arched with
evergreens, with a great big " Wtdeomc '' In
tbe centre. Stands wereerectcd in tbe upper
and lower squares, covered with pines and
bespangled with brilliant colors.
The trains were provokin'y late, and il
was afternoon when tbe boys in blue, and
the excursionists from tbe different parts of
the county, arrived. They were met at tbe
station by the Berlin G. A. R. Post, and the
line of march was speedily formed.
When the parade came marching rtp tbe
principal street, the sidewalk on either side
was a perfect jam of men, women and chil
dren. Every window along the entire route
was occupied. Tbe Somerset Cornet Band
led tbe procession, playing one of ita most
opular marches, to which the old vets kept
step in military style. Every here and there
one could observe some fellow marching
with a balling step that required no explan
ation, as all knew that a woo leu leg was do
ing service for a limb tbat bad b -e:i left on
some bloody field. The wind toyed with
many empty sleeve that attracted only the
attention of the close observer, as the multi
tude never paused to inq tire where the good
arm had been lost, or in what cause. And
thus tbe procession of our country's veter-
sns parsed in yearly review, receiving tbe
cheers of three tuousmJ persons looking on.
James S. ilinchman Camp Sous of Veterans
was the most attractive body in tbe proces
sion, the martial bearing and showy uni
forms of the boys catching the eyes of every
body as they passed along. After tbe line of
march bad been gone over tbe veterans
massed in tlie upper square, where County
Superintendent J. M. iierkey delivered the
address of welcome. Mr. iierkey spoke with
cl-arness an.l distinctness, his voi.e ienei ra
ting tbe farthest corners of the eqtiare.
wh.(t hi said.
Hembfrt of the Grand Army of the llepub
lic, Citizens, .Sdiera, Suns nf Vetera, FrUuls,
Alt: Iu behalf of the people of Berlin, I
bid you a cordial, welcome to our town.
These mountain breezes may sec m to give
you rather a cool greeting, but they simply
remind you that we keep on baud here a
constant and unlimited supply of good
mountain air warranted strictly pure all
tbe year round, and especially fresh from
October to May. But let me assure you that
notwithstanding tlie cool nortbwind, your
reception by tbe citizens of Berlin shall b
just as cordial, and your slay with us today
be made just as pleasant, as loyal hearts and
willing hands ran provide.
in honor of your coming we bave brought
from the mountain side tbe branches ever
green, as are tbe memories uf yeur brave
deeds of valor and patriotism ; for you is
unfurled today tbe ualion's banner, that
same flag which you bore so proudly
in a hundred battles, and although rent and
torn in the conflict, brought it borne again,
unstained, and without the loss of a single
star. For you has been prepared, by the
fair ladies of our town, and is now waiting
somewhere, a repast as rich and as varied, at
least, as tbat upon which you feasted on
your way to Richmond, or from Atlanta to
the Sea.
With the loyal people everywhere, we de
light to honor the men wbo have so bravely
defended tbe flag of the Union ; as a pros
perous people, secure in our quiet mountain
homes we hold in grateful remembrance
your prompt and patriotic response to
Columbia's call in tbe hour of her peril ; in
tbe enjoyment of national peace and unity,
we shall never forget tbe sacrifices tbat were
made by tbe Boys in Blue " for tbe na
tion's welfare. And while we cannot fill
up your shattered ranks with tbe loved and
the lost ; while we as a nation can never com
pensate you for the sacrifices you made, yet
we do feel that we can never honor over
much the Grand Army of the R-public, and
that we owe them a deot of gratitude which
ri oe?i cau ueter la; iuiit pain.
This is "Reunion Bay." Lt it b-
a glad
reunion. Roil back the years that bave
j passed so quietly away since the cheering
i news came to a million anxious homes
"The war is over and tbe Cnion is saved."
Roll back these years, and greet e irii other
aeain as tbe "boys" around tbe camp fires in
tbe sunny South. Lose sight, if you can, of
tbe silvered locks, the bent forms, the slow,
unsteady steps, that mark many of you in
tbe ranks to day, and live over again the
memories of. those by-gone days when tbe
strength and the vigor of young manhood
found enjoyment even in a soldiers life.
Fill up, if you will, your doubly decimated
ranks with those wbo have been "mustered
out" through all these years of peace. Yes,
let it be indeed a grand reunion dir. bring
ing to you sunshine, enjoyment and pleas
ure ; and to us, new lessons of patriotism,
friendship, and duty. May these Sous of
Veterans be justly proud of tbe naTie they
bear and the memories they perpetuate ; and
may all of us who bave never seen a battle,
and fondly hoping we never shall, yet learn
from you, and from your grand reunion
days, what it is to be a true soldier in times
of peace.
But we greet yon to day, not as soldiers,
but as citizens. It is aim est twenry-tive
years since you stool in line of bittle and
faced a southern fie ; almost s qriarter of a
centuty since you la'.d aside a warrior's garb
to take your place in the ranks of honorable
citizenship. Yet through all these years you
have been with us, and by us, and for us,
leading in tbe affairs of state, directing tbe
industries of our land, and cultivating the
arts of peace. To-day one of the "Bjys in
Blue" rules tbe nation ; to-day a brave and
maimed soldier governs this commonwealth.
To-day we remember bow he who was to
have been one of our honored guest,
brought order out of chaos in stricken
Johnstown, who came to that unfortunate
people in their hour of distress, with help
and hope and c Mirage ; to-day we recognize
in tbe orator for this occasion, not only tbe
honored Department Commander of yoor
noble organization, but a tried and eHcient
officer of our State government. To-day in
all tbe avenues of American labor and life,
may be found tbe nation's heroes, quietly
developing the wonderful resources of our
country, and enjoying the fruits of honest
toil in bappy homes made secure by their
own loyalty. Yes, this nation has long ago
learned, and rightly, too, that tbe men wtio
could be trusted as warriors in tbe field of
battle, to defend tbe Cnion and the flag, can
be trusted as well to direct the ship of state,
and to perform tbe duties of honorable citi
zenship in times of peace.
In grateful recognition, therefore, of your
noble service as soldiers,' and your ster
ling worth as citizens, we extend to you tbe
free hospitality of our mountain town, and
the cheerful, willing service of the people
you have this day honored by your presence.
Again we say, wWremu ianR.
COMmaDSS AT 1HXXK8.
At tbe conclusion of Prof. Berkey's ad
dress tbe line re-formed and marched to the
orchard, back of tbe Pbilson banking bouse,
where tlie dinner prepared by the good ladies
of Berlin bad been spread. We don't know
that G. A. R. men and Son of Vetertcs are
better judges of good things to eat than olb t
people, but we do know that all were loud
iu their praises of the meal prepared for
them.
After dinner Secretary of Internal Affairs,
Hon. Thomas G. Stewart, Jpartraent Com
mander f-t Pennsylvania in the Grand
Army of tbe Republic, was introduced and
male a "rattling" speech. He began by
reading a Ulegrara from Gen. D. 11. Hast
ings, regretting hia inability to be present on
account of sickness, and said tbat tha
General had requested Lira to explain his
absence, when he had called on that gentle
man tbe evening befora. Guucrat Stewart,
who's bright red hair and mustache, seemed
to increase in brilliancy under tbe glare
of tbe afternoon's sun. re-kindled tbe old
time fire in tbe hearts of the boys In blue,
as ha spoke, and at tbe conclusion of bia
ry able skirts be fi.ond tha remnant of
"Father Abrahams boys" assembled before
him. willing, if need he. to go once more to
the front.
General Stewart entered the army when
only sixteen years ofage, and served through
out tbe war. He has always been prominent
in G. A. R. affairs and was tbe author of the
Soldier's Bnrrial biil when a member of the
State Legislature from Montgomery county.
Several other peakers followed General
S eait with short addresses, and the visitors
spent tbe remainder of the afternoon in re
newing friendship and atxjnaiiitancea.
The excursion trains departed at 6 o'clock,
but many hundreds of people remained for
tbe fire works in the evening.
How Westmoreland was Formed.
Dr. 8. E. Burchfield writes tlie Latrobe
J'h-oieeas follows: It rosy not be a familiar
fact to all tbat tbe territory now included in
Westmoreland, and of course tbe land on
which Latrobe is built, was bought from the
Iudians in 170S. No title to land in this
vicinity antedates tbat year. Tbe land t f
Pennsylvania, though granted by a royal
charter from Charles the Second to William
Pcnn, was also purchased front the natives.
These purchases were six in number and
were made successly by Penn, tbe Proprie
tary Government, and the State, in l'JfrJ,
ITV; 1749, 17M, 17ikH, and 17fU.
Westmoreland County was formed Febru
ary 21, 1773, from a pirt of Bedford County,
and was a part of the pun-haseof 171S. It
at first comprised its present territory, ail of
Fayette, Green and Washington, tbe parts of
Beaver and Allegheny lying south of the
Ohio River, and the southern half of Arm
strong and Indiana counties. After tbe
purchase of I'ryi some additions were made
to the original county. Westmoreland was
therefore the first county organized west of
the mountains in Pennsylvania. The bor
ders of this "mother cf counties" have been
changed again and again as new counties
were formed wholly or partly from the ter
ritory. No change lias been made to the
dimensions or lines of tbe "Star of the West"
since March 3t), 1S03, when Indiana County
was formed from a part of her area.
ROB3ER JOHN RAMSAY.
Tha Last of the McClellandtown
Can? Still at Largo.
From The Cocaellsville Courier.
John Rimsay, sn uncaptnred member of
the famous McClellandtown gang of robbers
who terrorized the county several months
ago has resumed operations again on bis own
account, and is as bold as ever. Numerous
depredations are credited to him. The Cath
olic church at LeUtenring was broken into
last Thursday night. Thethievesdesecrated
tbe altar and stole the crucifixes, candelabra
and sacramental vessels. Ramsay and a com
panion named Beals who bad been seen in
the neighborhood by several persons, were
suspected of the crime. The afternoon fol
lowing, Patrick Kavanaugh, who keeps a
small grocery store along tbe Leisenring
road, saw a man boldly approach his store
and extract tbe key from the door. He was
in the back part of the store, but had a fair
view of tbe man, whom he recognized as
John Ramsay, having seen him several times
when the McClellandtown gang were opera
ting in Franklin township. Kavanaugh, ex
pecting a visit from the robber that night,
sat guard over bis house, but was not dis
turbed. In tbe morning, however, he con
cluded that bis property was not safe. Ram
say, having the key of the store door, might
at any time make au attempt at robbery. On
the advice of Father Malady, priest of tbe
Catholic chnrcb, he came to Connellsvilie
ami swore out a warrant for tbe arrest of tbe
man who was the lioldcst and most daring
of the gang which committed such heartless
cruellies in Franklin ar.d German townships
last March.
Tbe warrant was given to Constable Frank
Campbell to serve. A warrant was also is
sued to search a bouse in which Ramsay and
his companion were supposed to be stopping.
Campbell deputized (feorge McCormick, and
on Saturday morning both went to Leisen
ring to arrest Ramsay. The house was
sarehed but neither of the robbers could Se
found. Tbe officers also visited the works
and coke ovens, and half tbe day was spent
in look in for the men. Campbell finally
gave up tbe search and returned to ConnelU-
ville. He afterward-i learned tbat Ramsay
bai been biding in a house near the one
bicb was searched, and had clewely watched
the officers' movements. Several persns
have beard Ramsay say that he would never
be taken alive, but would kill any officer wbo
attempted to arrest him. He is constantly
armed, and from what is known of bis des
perate character, it is thought he would not
hesitate to carry out bis threat.
One night last week tbe company store of
Robert Hopsett, at tbe Mt. Brad.bick coke
works, was robbed of a quantity of groceries
and dry goo.J,. Several revolvers and a lot
of ammunition were also stolen. The thieves
broke open tbe door of the roomncenpied by
Eing R id.iy. Superintendent of (he works
pried orwn two trunks anil took every arti
cle of cw.thing in them. A considerable snra
of money, jewelry and two revedvers were
also stolen. Ramsay was seen by a number
of people wearing tbe clothing stolen from
Roddy. OiImti claim to have beard biro
boast of tbe robbery, and of bis ability lo
live without workine. Farmers in Dunbar
township suffer nightly the loss of provis
ions, etc, and all these ietty robberies are
laid to Ramsey.
The Commitwionrrs of Fayette county of
fer 1 a reward of fJJUfor tbe arrest and con
viction of any member of the McClelland
town gang. This was Iat March, immedi
ately after the outrage on J. Calvin Core of
Franklin township and Andrew J. Lilly 0f
German township. The cruelties practiced
upon Lilly were of tuch a brutal nature that
tha Commissioners were moved to offer tbe
rewanl. Tbe gang broke into Lilly's bouse,
beat him and held heated irons to bis feet to
make bim reveal the hiding place of bis
money. In April, Charles J. Lewis, Decatur
Ta-ker, Marshall and Jackson Sullivan were
arrested at Markieysbnrg by a posse of Som
erset county officers. They were tried in
Somerset for these robberies and for the out
rage upon Christian Yoder, an old member
of tbe Amish church. Tbe four men were
found guilty and sentenced ten years in tbe
Western Penitentiary. Ramsay was with
the gang at Markleysburg when the arrest
was made, but managed to escape. Tbe
reward for bim still holds good, and this
fact is no doubt stimulating the officers in
tbe search.
Tbe work of disiufecting the flooled dis
tricts in Johnstown was no small affair. Tlie
disinfectants nsed were as follows; Lime, 20
carloads: chloride of lime, 25 tons: Quibble's
liquid, i.000 barrels; rosin, 140 barrels; pitch,
100 barrels; Bullen's disinfectant, 110 barrels:
San i las, 8 barrels; copperas, 100 tons; pLen
ique, 5 barrels; muriatic acid, 3 carboys; car
bolic acid, 100 gallons; sodium bypoebloride
700 bottles; Piatt's chloride, 300 bottles; cor

In those improvements which make rail
roai travel a luxury the Pennsylvania Rail
road Om.pany has always been a pioneer.
The handsome finish and comfort of its or

reason the corporation bas added new sc
commodatitins and attractions to its palace-
car system such as bave never before been
dreamed of in tbe philosophy of the ruiL
Bath rooms havebeen added to the sleeping-cars,
with female attendants for lady
passengers. A drawing-room car, handsome
ly fitted with rockers, and other easy chairs,
bas been placed in the rear of the sleepers.
in which persons taking berths ran ride
while their beds are being prepared. Barber
shops are provided for men, and arrange
ments have been msde to receive stock quo
tations on the day trains. So a traveler can
now baveas many conveniences and luxuries
on a Pennsylvania train as he can obtain in
his own borne or hotel.
