them with kuives or sticks, C.sf.guring the

Mrs. Criah 1 rent and her daughter. Miss
Annie, who live on the hill north of town,
met w ith an accident last Wedneaxlav even
ing that will render both ladies helpless for
some lime to come. They were letuming
from a visit to M rs. Trent's ton, Wilson,
who lives on the old homestead, three miles
out tbe Jenner pike, and when they arrived
oppfeite the residence of George Kneedy.
and in sight of their oen home, the horse
they were driving took fright at tbe report
of a blast that had that moment been fired
by Mr. Kneedy, who was engaged in split
ting rocks. Tbe frightened animal plunged
violently, upsetting tbebugjy and throwing
both ladies against a slake and rider fence,
lining tbe pike, with great force. Mrs Trent's
left arm was broken in two places, and her
body received a number of bruises. Her
daughter ecaed w ithout having any limbs
broken, but had both arms so badly sprain
ed that she is unable to use either of them.
Persons who witnessed the accident consider
the escape of both ladies from instant death
marvelous.
Jacob Custer, a w ell known ci'izens of
Quemahoning township, ootum'tted suicide
at his home near TmssleV mill on the S.tC
R. R. I m ween eight and nine o'clock Mon
day morning. He ane ' the usual hour
iu the morning, au I afler attending to his
outdoor duties returned to the house, and
sealing himself before a table commenced
writing; be had only written a few words,
when be went into an adjoining room where
his wife was iu bed, suffering from sick
headache, and laid down by her aide. He
spoke a few words to bis wife. Mrs. Custer
observed nothing unusual in her husband's
conversation or movements and was shocked
a moment after be laid down on the bed by
the report of a revolver, and turning found
het husband gapping in death with a bleed
ing wound in his right temple and a smok
ing revolver clutched in his right hand. He
never spoke, as death was almost instanta
r.eouin M r. Custer had not been considered of even
ly balanced mind by his friends for a num
ber of years. About two years ago he at
tempted to commit suicide by hanging.
Time'y discovery of his intention prevented
him from taking his life at that time.
Mr. Custer have a wifoand six children,
one of his daughters being tlie young lady
who had the unfortunate aSair with his
"Riverance " A. Sell, who is now in tlie
county jail as a result of his imprudence.
Mr. Custer it ia said bought the revolver
with which he took his life for the purpoaj
of avenging the wrong done his daughter
and frequently threatened to carry his pur
pose into cff.sft.
Mr. Custer was a trifle over fifty years of
age end served three years in the Union Ar
my, in tbe S4 Regiment, Pennsylvania Vol
unteers, and was highly respected iu the
community ia which he lived.
A Remarkable Showing.
About two months ago tie National Catik
of South Pennsylvania was istablished at
Hyndman. Toe wisdom of the movement
was questioned, even by many who hope.!
for its success, and when the doors opened
there was much wise shaking of heads. Tne
first ot tbe statements which the government
requires national banks to make is printed
in another column of this paper ami it ia
indeed a remarkable showing. At the end
ct two months the deposits amount to over
111.0)1. ait tn? .'lit are H. 673 Tue
success of the undertaking is made more ap
parent wheat tlie statement is compared wuti
tne one issued tv the Somerset national
bank last week. These banks were started
about tlie same time, with all the advanta
ges on tbe side of the Somerset institution,
congressman Scull is president of tlie latter,
and many of the most prominent people of
tie county are stockholders and odicers.
Yet while the Hynriman bank shows HI. -0
0 deposits, tbe Somerset hank reports but
tu.uuu.
The above article we clip from lb ISedford
G,iz!t of last week. It is indeed quite a re
markable showing for so new an in titution,
and proves that the business men of Hynd
man know and appreciate the va'oeof a na
tional bank. The writer of the article has
fallen into an error in the somewhat insidi
ous comparison be draws between that bank
and the First National Bank of this place,
which we are tempted to point out. Tbe
Hyndman Bank opened its doors on the 2nd
day of July, if we mistake not, and therefore
its report covers the business of three months,
while the Somerset National commenced
business on the 2nd day of September, and
its report shows the business of one month
oniy. .So, as one is to three, the latter bank
loses nothing by the comparison. However,
we heartily congratulate our Hyndman
friends on their successful debut, and hope
that nothing but prosperity will follow their
efforts.
Somerset people are proverbially conserva
tive and careful, but we doubt not tnat their
First National Bank will " get there," in
time, without the necessity of calling news
paper notoriety to its aid.
Making Country Roads.
October Century.
The roads should be worked at proper
tiroes. The need of the dirt road is little re
lairs often mule. Tbe common practice ia
to do almost all the work just after "corn
planting." This if wrong, for two reasons:
It is too bra fr tlie best results, and too
much is done at one time. 8ix inches of
dirt or gravel will make a far better road if
put on in layers of, say, two inches at inter
vals of a month or so, than will tbe entire
amount applied at once. Just as soon as tl.e
roads are settled in tbe spring, and before
they have beiome dry and bard, the scraper
should be put to work leveling and filling
the ruts worn during tbe winter, and slight
ly rounding the road-bed towards the centre.
The ground being still moist, and not com
part as at the usual time of doing this, tbe
work can be done more easily and rapidly
and the road will park better. Later, a light
coat of earth or gravel, to be followed by
another when the first becomes packed hard,
and this in trim by a third, if possible. Last
ly, in the fall, the entire road should be
gone over to see that all gutters and bridges
are free, tbat the road may not be washed
oat by winter storms and spring rains. All
mud-holes, of course, should be filled
promptly, at all times, so tbat no water may
stand in tbe road, and loose stones should
be removed at least once a month.

Relief Societies Withdrawn From
Johnstown Miss Clara Barton Is
sues a Farewell A a dress.
JonssTows, Pa., October 17. John Han
nan, President of the Board of Inquiry, said
to-day that the work of tbe Board was com
pleted last Monday, and from that day the
responsibility for the distribution of tbe bal
ance of the relief fund to the ,300 people
entitled to it rested upon Secretary Kremer.
The latter, in an interview, said that within
two weeks ail relief money would be paid
out, and tbat tbe Commission's work would
end. .
At the Red Cross Hospital this evening a
Xting was held to organize a Local Wo
i's Benevolent Association, that will fol
low in the footsteps of the Red Cross.
Miss Clara Barton, President of the Na
tional Uwl Cross, has issued the following
farewell address to the citiz'ns of Johnstown :
Miss staroN's ADDUES8.
'Not only is the work of the Rvlief Com
mission nearly ended, but the lied Cross, as
well, must soon "fold its tents" and sever its
connection with the scenes of the labors
which have held us willing workers more
than a third of a year in your midst end
with a brave and patient people who have
grown dear and are never to be forgotten.
It was in the dark of a rainy morning, on
the 5th of June, tbat oar organization, with
a force approaching half a hundred, came to
live among and become your "neighbor ' in
the true signification of the term as defined
by the Master,
(hie month was given to distribution from
tents, at Poplar street bridge, aided by honse
to house inspection over the town, in order
to resell those ho either could not or would
not be likely to come to us.
But the sympathetic bounties of the out
side world overran our tent life, and in order
to make ourselves ready for the more heavy
distribution which the improvement of the
streets and homes would make possible, in
the first week of July tbe National organi
zation withdrew from Poplar street and
threw up its present warehouse on the generously-tendered
grounds of your revered
townsman, Judge Potta, on Walnut street
at the same time asking the formation of a
committee of Johnstown ladies of every de
nomination, and who would best know tbe
conditions, to whom the people might go
and make known their wants, which later
we would undertake to supply so far as in
our power.
This committee, known as "The Red Cross
Committee of Johnstown Ladies," or "Miss
Tittle's Committee," women scarcely healed
of their own bruises, sore hearted, home
less, and bereft, came tearfully but bravely
to our si Jo, snd performed s work of tender,
discriminating justice and charity such as I
believe few ladies may ever have been called
to do.
Tue written wants of over two thousand
tamiliea, with name, address, number in
family, ages, sex, and condition, were by this
committee passed directly to us, and subse
quently over a thousand more famines have
been added to the rcguhtr list of applications,
thus making the number of persons upon
application t be reached and servel by us
something over twenty thousand.
To you, whose eyes have become as famil
iar with the sight of our teams upon your
streets and at your stations as with your
grocers' or express wagons, we need not ex
plain in what manner, nor with what mate
rial, this has been done. Such articles as
were most needed as a nucleus for the furn
ishing of tbe little, bare, cheerless house to
make it the beginning of a hoove, we have
endeavored, with our half-dozen teams and
half hundred workiugmea and women, out
doors and in. to p lace there.
Two other houses, 116'xoO feet have been
built one ou Locust street, in charge of
Mrs. Henry , and one at Kernville, in charge
of Mrs. Linton, both honored Johnstown
Ladies, and are iu active o;eration for the ac
commodation of tbe people of the town,
wbo have kindly dignified them by tbe name
of "hotels." The entire proceeds of these
bonses, furnished and ready for occupancy,
accrues to the ltvi.es w bo conduct them
never one cent to tis, and with the single
stipulation that the rales shall not exceed
twenty-five cents a meal for any Johnstown
person.
Another block of nearly equal dimensions,
for families desiring to live separately, bad
been erected at Woodvale and fearing that
the winter might bring need for some gen
eral refuge for tbe sick, we hare, with tLe
advice and co operation of your local physi
cians, and through the kiudrtetis of Secretary
Kremer. utilized a half dozen small sited
"Oklahomas" for wards, erecting them 00
the same lot with our warehouse, together
with a new wooden attachment at the rear,
for kitchen, dining, sle;iin. store, and
linen rooms. Ttiey are to be amply furnish
ed warmed, lighted, an 1 p-isnel over to the
hands of the load physicians of th; town,
for tbe use of its homeless tick wbo need
shelter and care.
The application from the ladies' enm
mittee are nearly filled, only a few hundred
families remaining unserved whose names
have reached ns through any legitimate
channel.
These thousands of homes, either new or
repaired, bare received tbe fintt beginning
of a household. . " . -
Tlte State fund., so generously contributed
are being distributed throughout the town.
Its large, unfailing works of iron and steel
are in active operation. Its schools are open,
its churches are reviving, its place of busi
ness are active snd prosperous. Its new
buildings, if not luxurious, are at ltatat liva
ble, and far more comfortable than those of
the pioneers wbo have settled all our prairie
Stales and Western borders, or than people
generally erret to live in while endeavoring
to make a living or amaa a t.rtunein a new
couulry. In view of all this, we feel, with
the writer of Ibis morning's article, tbat
under the unprecedented woe which blight
ed your homes and darkened your lives, it
were well that strangers came iu to do for
your people what they had not the means
nor tbe heart to do for themselves, and that
up to the present time their aid snd presence
have been needed and well, but that possibly
tbe time bas now come when ss dispensers
of public charity they should withdraw, the
people of Johnstown once more come to
stand upon their own feet end lbs "avenues
of trade be fully opened."
Cut nothing is more true than the remark
so wisely, thoughtfully, and tenderly made,
that there wi,1 still be those who cannot do
without help whom "ye have always with
youa" and whom we are eoramanded to re
member. In this we also join with the writer in the
recommendation of a thorough and strong
organization of yoor people as dispensers of
your own charities, for which charge the
action of the smaller committee which I
have witnessed shows conclusively you have
abundant and rich material.
And the Red C'ns i happy in being able
to go somewhat farther than tbe mere recom
mendation. We w ill do alt ia our power to
aid in placing such an organ ix-uion on a
good working basis, and from our position
we can provide it with what might other
wise prove a serion obstacle to overcome,
vix, s place ia which to store supplies and
from which to distribute ; and we shall glad
ly place ia its hands all which may remain
of our supplies after our list of applications
is filled. Other supplies will come to you
when ones it is known tbat Johnstown is
again on its feet and caring for its own.
Such an organization will be to us tbe
knot that will serve to bind the loose threads
of all the work which has been done here in
the past months, and rob our parting of its
tharpest stiog.

three or tour sessions, at their discretion.
Last year 215 teachers, 4J directors and at

spirit on the part of the teachers of Somer
set county, but it shows as well, a public in
terest in tbe school work, and popular ap
proval of this line of educational progress.
Let us do still better this year. Let every
teacher aim to attend one or more of these
institutes and to come prepared to take part
In tbe exercises. Let the directors meet with
their teachers for mutual encouragement and
assistance. Let pupils and patrons he en
couraged to attend the meetings and all will
be benefited. I expect to be present at ail

LAWS TO BE OBEYED.
Four New Laws That It Is Well to be
Familiar With.
A law of this commonwealth, approved by
the governor on May 9, last authorizes coun
ty commissioners to exonerate any county
treasurer whose term expired prior to the
passage of this law of their respective coun
ties from the payment of all interest that
may have a-xrued and m its chargeab'e
on money lot by said former treasurer by
reason of the failure of a savings bank in
which theeounty funds were or may be de
posited. Coder the act of assembly approve.! by
Governor Beaver on the 'J.b of last May,
any banker, broker or oflictr in any trust, or
savings institution, National bank or private
bank, who shall take and receive money
from a depositor with the knowledge that he.
they or the bank is insolvent at the time, is
declared guilty of embezzlement, and may
be ponisbtid by a fine in double the amount
received, and imprisoned from one to three
years in the penitentiary.
Under an act which became a law on the
9th of May, last, courts in the several coun
ties of this commonwealth may. if their
opinion justify it, upon the petition of not
than twenty-five taxpayers, appoint such
a number of deputy constables as in their
judgment the case may warrant These
constables may exercise all the taowers of
policemen in cities, iu tbe several townships
where they are appointed, snd the keepers
of jails and lock-ups and station bouses are
required to receive al! the persons arrested
by the officers. Wbeu on duty the consta
bles shall wear badges, with the township
name on it The courts shall y them such
compensation as they approve, and discbarge
them when their services are no longer re
quired.
All Pennsylvania farmers are interested
in s law which was signed on the ir.h of May
last by Governor Beaver, inien.led to pre
vent the spread of Contagious diseases among
cattle. It gives authority to the secretary
of the state board ot agriculture when .in
formed of tbe prevalence of cuntatriou ani
mal diseases, to adopt such measures to pre
vent its spread as he may deem expedient
He bas authority to place ail infected herds
and animals in quarantine, and prevent tbe
movement of such animals from place to
place, except on proper permita, with the
consent if the governor. Persons wbo in
terfere with htm in the discharge of this
duty, or wbo violate the quarantine shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon convic
tion be liable to a Sue or imprisonment, or
both. When it is found necessary or ex
pedient to kill an animal to prevent the
spread of the disease, it shall be first ap
praised, and tbe owner shall be entitled to a
certificate of the same, which shall be paid
out of the state treasury.
