Two more bodies were found at Johns town Friday. Among those who examined them was Mr. I) wight Roberts, who at once decided that the remains of one were those of his mother, Mrs. Howard J. Roberts.

Mr. Samuel Ream met with a painful ac cident at the home of his brother in-law, Mr. John Smucker, in Jenner township, last Tuesday about 11 o'clock.

Mr. Keiiu is none the less a Pennsylvanian and a loyal Republican, and was one of the party from this, bis native county, to witness the pro ceedings of the State Convention at Harris burg last week. The latest theory concerning Bright's dis ease and other affections of the kidneys, is that they ara due to the immoderate use of ice water and otherchil'.ed beverages. Thirty or forty years ago, a physician asserts, when people slaked their thirst with fresh water from well or pump kidney disease was vir tuallj' unknown. Now, however, the gener al use of ice in every household and saloon and the multiplication of soda fountains, cause thousands of persons to abruptly shock their heated internal organs with freezing draughts, and kidney troubles are prevalent. Dr. Dane, who has been superintending the improvements made to the Gentlemen's Drivimt Park, assures us that they now have one of the best half-mile tracks iu western Pennsylvania. The sharp incline that for merly retarded the speed of racers has been graded down to a gentle slope that is barely noticable. and which knowing ones insist w ill incite horses to exert their boat efforts. The committee who have the arrangements for the first meeting in charge should receive substantial encouragement from our mer chants and hotel people, as they always reap the benefit to be derived from a crowd such as it is hoped will be attracted here to wit ness the races. The voters of this township settled the division question by a treat majority in favor of division, at an election held on the 21st of June.

A young son of Daniel Snyder, of Black township, accompanied by three compau ions, rode from Kock wood to the Brethren church in Middlecrcek township, Sunday morning, where a love feast was being held. Two of the boys rode mules and lied them in thegrovs surrounding the church. Short ly after dinner young Snyder got too close to the heelsof one of the mules a venerable and vicious animal and was dealt a ower ful kick in the back which rendered him unconscious. Medical aid was summoned. when it was found that a number of bis ribs were badly fractured. He was at once removed to his home. The largest and handsomest store-room in this section of the stale is James R. Holderhaum's hardware establishment and for the last couple of months it has been the busiest place about town.

A sad and distressing accident happened at Wolfsburg on Friday. Irvine Miller, aged IS, sou of James Miller, started out with a shotgun to shoot frogs. His little brother, Charley, about six years old, asked leave to accimiany him, ami it was finally decided that, he and their mother should go along. The stream is but a short distance from their home. As they walked slowly along its bank, Irvine suddenly stumbled and fell. The gun was discharged as he fell, and the heavy charge of shot was poured into his little brother's heart. The boy died in his mother's arms a few hours later. Irvine was overwhelmed with grief and for a time was inconsolable. Hertford Gazette. A. C. llolbert, Eiq., census enumerator for this borough, lias completed his labors. He lias been granted permission by Supt. Denny to give to the newspapers of the couuty for publication an approximate estimate of the population of this borough, and he assures us that it is between 1704 and 1709. This is an increase of o00 over the census of lSO, or about 42 per cent. We would urge the enumerators of the different districts in the county to secure permission from the Super intendent to give to the newspaers for pub lication the population of their districts. In this way the total population of the county can I' ascertained much earlier than it will be officially announced by the census de partment. Wesley, a 1U year-old son of Charles II. Miller, of this towhship, met with an acci dent ten days ago which resulted in his death shortly before noon, Monday. He was enguged in hauling lumber with his father's four horses from a mill near Jenner to the railroad station at Stoyestown, and was seated on the heavily loaded wagon while going down the Steinbaugh hill, bear ing on the brake, when the block suddenly gave way and the horses were compelled to run to keep out of the wagon's way. At the fool of the hill there is a small bridge, nd just before reaching it the leaders took to the summer road while the wheel horses kept to the one leading over the bridge. l'he wagon was upset and a portion of its heavy load fell upon the unfortunate driver, pinning him to the ground. He was lound shortly after the accident and removed to his father's home, where he lingered' in reat agony until death relieved his Buf ferings. Thursday morning Lewis M. Statler w- found de.-d in his bed at Samuel Custer's hotel, in Stoyestown. Mr. Statler was a bachelor, about seventy-four years ol age, and was known to almost every citizen in the county. He had been in Somerset on the preceding Monday as a delegate to the Democratic county convention and appear ed in his usual good health. He returned to Stoyestown Tuesday, and moved about the hotel from then until Wednesday night, without one of his friends suspecting that death was so near at hand. Not appearing at the breakfast table Thursday morning a messenger was sent to arouse him, but re turned in a few minutes to say that the door of Mr. Statler's room was bolted, and that he was unable to secure any response from the inside. A boy was helped into the room by way of the transom, when the discovery was made that the venerable gentleman had passed away during the night. The family ol George F. Baer, Ej., of Reading formerly of Somerset made a narrow escape from being killed on the Phil adelphia A Reading Railroad at the Frank lin street station, in Reading Thursday evening. Mrs. Baer and daughters were re turning from a drive, and when their car riage nea red the crossing tbe watchman sig naled the driver to come on. The latter whipped up his horses, but just then tbe watchman noticed the fast freight approach inK at high speed and lowered the safety gates. By this time the team was on the railroad and ilia horses began rearing. The driver pulled the animals back with such suddenness as to cause them to fall close to the tracks as the engine shot by, As 90011 as the horses til the driver jumped out aver the dasher and held them down by their heads until the train bad passed, thus pre venting them from regaining their feet and running away. The ladies jumped from the carriage and escaped uninjured. One of the horses was hurt, and the carriage was dam aged. Francis F. Ilerr died at the borne of his wife's mother, Mrs. X. B. Snyder, in this borough, shortly before midnight, on Tues day, June 21th, in his 48lh year. He had suffered from a complication of diseases for several years, which finally terminated in his death. He was the eldest son of the late Joseph Herr, and grew to manhood in this place. When only nineteen years old he he enlisted in the .Vnion army for three years and partivipated in a number of en gagements, including Fredericksburg, Chan cellorsviile and Gettysburg. He was wound ed at Gaines' MUl, Cedar Creek and Gettys burg. After the close of the war Mr. Herr secured employment with the Standard Oil Company, and for a period of thirteen years was a resident of Oil City. Severing his connection with that company he removed to Arizona, where he was employed as su perintendent of a mining company. Re turning to Pennsylvania, he again entered the service of tbe Standard Oil Company and his name was on that company's pay roll at the time of his death.

W hat is known as " Children Day was observed in the Disciples' church on Sunday evening. The church was beautifully deco rated with flowers and rich foliage plants. The perfume of the flowers, the artistic mauner in which ti.ey were arranged, to gether with the bright, innoeerjt faces of the children, reminded us in some degree of that haven of rest that w e all so much desire in the final day. As this day in the church is being more Observed every year, it is looked forward lb with great interest and pleasure by all. The following is the program : Ojiening sor.p, " Shout the Tidings of Sal vation," by the Sunday-school ; Prayer, by M. J. Pritts ; Welcome Address, by Helen Coffroth ; Solo, by Nannie Sanner, "Over the C.cean Roll " ; Ricitation, " India," by Annie Patton ; Song, " From Greenland's Icy Mountains," by the School ; Recitation, " The Missionary Hen," by George Fleck : Recitation, " Two Pennies'" by Rosa Ban ner; Song, " Little Givers," Infant Class ; Recitation, " Good Kews," by Daisy Vogel ; Song, ''Twinkling Star," Infant Class; Itecilatiou, "How to Do It," Nellie Harri son ; Recitation, " All for Thee," by Bessie Rboads ; Reading, by Nannie Ssnner ; Solo, " Ashamed of Thee," by Mrs. W. H. Wool- ery ; Address, " 1 he Children and Their Work," Elder 0. W. Granger : Solo, " Con sider the Lilies," by Mrs. May Biesecker. Long before the hour for the services to begin the house was filled, and at the open ing of the services it was packed to its full est capacity, and many failed to get in. The exercises were all good, come deserv ing special mention. The Address of Wel come by Helen Coffroth, and the recitations of Bessie Rhoads, Annie Patton and George Fleck were very good and well recited. The singing by the little folks was greatly appreciated. The solos rendered by Mrs. W. H. Woolery and Mrs. May Biesecker were among lhe pleasant features of tbe evening. The beautiful sentiments of the songs and the fine rendition of them was re ceived with marked attention, and many an eye was dimmed with tears that unbid den start, from the sympathetic words of the songs and sweet voices of the singers. The address of Elder C. W. Granger was most excellent, and it is only to be regretted that all parents of the community diS not get to hear it. His subject was " The Chil dren aud Their Work." He related how the work of the children began, and the great good that has been accomplished by them ; the amount of money received ; the number; of missionaries sent out ; the churches and schoolhouses built in foreign lands, and the work done at home. The story related by him in regard to the old, vet beautiful song, "Jesus Lover of My Soul," was very touching, and brought tears to eyes that had not wept for years, and moved the stoutest hearts. The statement made, " I would rather be a Heathen in the farthest and dreariest lauds, in the final day when all the people will be judged, than take the place of those who live here and have rejected Christ," ought to make men stop and consider, and ask themselves t'tP question, " What am I do- ng towards the salvation of my soul? Am I prepared for death, and the apiearing be fore a righteous iod ? ' Elder Granger is a forcible talker, pleasing in his manner, and greatly interested in his work, and we predict for him a great reward for his labors. The amount raised for missions by the children and collection was $01 .01). Qi iet Observer. One of the Sullivan Gang. Jacob Atkinson, paymaster of the H. C. Frick Company at the Wynn Coke Works, eft I'niontown on the 11:32 train Thursday with $1,( in his pocket. He arrived at the works at 12:30. The men were congregated about the paymaster's office waiting for their two-weeks' salary, but were not near the paymaster's window. Atkinson was counting the money, and had most of it placed in envelopes, which each man wss to receive. He was busy and did not notice a smooth-faced young man approaching the window, until the words "Hands up!" were uttered and a 33-calibre hull-dog revolver onfronted him. . ' The cool young man at the window, tak ing advantage of the situation, with his re volver in his left band, shoved the other into the window and secured the pay envelopes containing the amount named above. With the revolver still in his hand he backed slowly from the window, and just as he was ready to run into the bushes beyond, he saw that the paymaster was about to call for aid, and, without a moment's warning, the rob ber pulled the trigger and sent a bullet through the front window. Another was sent after the first, and Atkinson barely e-tcajied death by dodging to the ground. The robber was not captured. Vxtojrrows, Pa., June 2s. Perry Donald son, the young deserado who robbed Jacob Atkinson, paymaster of the H. ('. Frick coke works, of $1,1130 on Thursday, has not yet been captured. The mule he stole from Walter Longhead and which it is suposed he rode into West Virginia and escaped on the night after the robbery, was to-day found on top of Chestnut Ridge making its way back home. Young Donaldson has for the past year been a lover of "Nett" Sullivan, the handsome young girl who figured so conspicuously in the operations of the noto rious Sullivan gang, whuee nefarious doings some two years ago created such widespread consternation on account of its daring acts of robbery and feet burning iu this county. It is claimed here on good authority that Donaldson was a member of the gang, and got his training with it in connection with his longing to lie a hero of the James type, brought about by reading yellow-backed literature . Resolutions of Respect. Whereas, It has pleased Almighty God in His infinite wisdom to remove from this community in the person of George E. Geisel a highly esteemed citizen, a loving and devoted lather, and a faithful and effi cient officer of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, therefore, IicnAieii. That in submitting ourselves to the care and Kind keeping of Providence we acknowledge His universal beneficence to all the children of men.

Iltmlvtd, That we extend to the bereaved family and friends our heart Mt sympathy, keeping in view the fact of the brevity of human life and that death will shortly claim us as Its inevitable victims. tUJml, That the above resolutions be printed in the county papers and be record ed in the church and Sunday-school records, and that a copy be sent to tbe bereaved family.
