The grasshoppers has put in an appearance
in Western Pennsylvania, after an absence
of many years, and is doing business in a
manner that threatens to seriously damage
J the farmers. Thus far the hoppers have cn-
fined their di pn-datioas to the oate and gras
icrxw. They do not eat the grain entirely,
tv.if wit fhp m.M-k and leave it to Tx-rish. A
tiermao township farmer says they cut off
2i bu-heti of oats from a small field. It is
thought that the late sudden aud severe rain
storms haTe merely delayed the attack upon
the grain, and that it wili suffer later on. A
Tyrone township farmer says one-third of
hi o.its crop has been cut off by tbe pests,
and that a great deal of his grass has been

The 15-year-old son of Josiab Zerfoss, of
Somerset township, had a narrow escape
from a horrible death Monday morning. The
boy and his father went to the farm of a
neighbor, Jonas Stutzman, to do some mow
ing, aad the boy was engaged driving the
machine, when the mower came in contact
with a stump and threw him on to the blades.
The horse became frightened and started to
run, dragging the unfortunate youth before
the sharp teeth of the scythe. He would
certainly have been mangled had it not been
for the prompt arrival of his father, who ran
in front of the horses and succeeded in stop
ping them. When the boy was released
from his perilous position his clothes were
torn in shreds, and the fore-finger of his
right band, which bad been caught be
tween the sharp blades of the scythe, was
hanging only by the skin. Hi wa brought
to town, where his wound was d:s.d by
Dr. P. F. Shaffer.
Lincoln township is troubled with a gang
of thieves who confine their operations to
hours when people are away from borne
attending church. Last Sunday evening,

ing church at Casebeer'a. there home was

Milier, and a considerable amount belong
ing to his mother-in-law, Mrs. Bowman,
who makes her home with him. Mr. Miller
is treasurer of the church, and fortunately
bad most of the church money, together
with hi own, in his pocket. On the same
day Geo. Gohn's house wa robbed of a lot
of bread, pies and cakes while the family
were absent at church, at Lichty 's.
Two Sundays before, the bouse of Sol
Baker was entered while the family were at
church and over $200 was stolen. On the
same Sunday Eli Berkey, who is the col
lector of school taxes for Lincol n township,
and who makes his home with Lis brother
Abram, surprised thieves while they weit
attempting to force their way into the house
and frightened tbem away. There is do
doubt that all of these robberies were per
petrated by the same gang and that they are
resident of that neighborhood. Suspicion
rests upon several "tough" young men and
they are likely to be brought up with
short turn.

A Case of Interest to Careless Su
pervisors. The verdict ia a case tried in court at
Mercer, I 'a., a couple of weeks ago, is a
warning to eareles supervisors and town
ship authorities. It wa tbevaae of W. M.
Scnrrey vs Fairfield township, brought to
recover damage for the loa of a horse,
caused by washout in a township road.
The plaintiff proved that the road had been
left by tbe authorities In an unsafe condition
for forty days or more, and that he had used
due diligence in handling his horse. Tbe
jury took twenty-four hours to weigh th
evidence, and several times wanted to give
it up without making a decision, but the
court told them it was s plain case and that
under their oaths he did not think it reason
able that they should not agree. A verdict
was finally rendered forth entire claim,
one hundred and seventeen dollars and fifty
cents, with interest, in all amounting to one
hundred and twenty-one dollars and ninety
eight cents. As the costs in the case art
considerably more, it is probable that Fair
field township would have found it consid
erably cheaper to have repaired the wash
outs more promptly. This should be a
warning to some supervisors in our own
county.

visited hi brother-in-law, David Carper, of
Woodbury township. On arriving at Mr,
Carper's, Mrs, Over and her daughter pro
ceeded to the house, while her husband at

large dogs belonging to Mr. Carper, made s
desperate assault upen him. Tbe largest of
the two attempted to get hold of hia throat,
tbe other took a good hold upon his leg. Mr.
Over is a very powerful, muscular, deter

Must Walt for Artificial Limbs.
The appropriation at the disposal of th
surgeon general's office for artilicial limbs,
and for commutation, where tbe pensioner
does not take the artificial limb supplied by
the government, is already exhausted, and
about pensioners will have to wait for
their commutation money until after Con
gress meets. The appropriation for this
year would have paid all claims under the
law, as it existed prior to March 3d last, but
an amendment was passed on that date
making the period for the renewal of artifi
cial limbs three years instead of five. All
the claims that would have been spread
over the next two years under the old law
became matured under tbe new law on the
date of its passage ; but Congress made no
provision to meet the increased expenditure
and the regular appropriation bus covered
only s third of the cases.

Johnson's Universal Cyclopaedia.
Bishop Vincent, of the M. E. Church :
After s careful examination of Johnson s
Cyclopaedia, I am convinced that while it is
excently adapted to the needs of professional
and business men, it is eminently useful to
tbe earnest, thorough self-educator.
This work, with its corps of contributors.
offers accurate article on the widest range
of subjects. To the value of trustworthy in
formation is added the inspiration of per
sonality, associated with great names.
I heartily commend this Cyclopsdia to
all, and especially to those who are pursuing
self-set courses in the university of life.
Hon. A. R. Spofford, Librarian of Con
gress : It is found in the library of Congress
to answer more questions satisfactorily than
any other work of reference.
Prof F. A. Marsh, L. L. D., Lafayette
College: Johnson's Cyclopaedia is the one
which I keep nearest to my hand and exam
ine oftenezt. It gives the latest views of
American scientists. If one can have only
one cyclopaedia outside of his profession, be
will be pretty sure to find Johnson's the
most usefuL
Prot R. F. Weidner, D. D., Augusta,
Tenn. : I have constantly used Johnsou's
Cyclopaedia during the past ten years, (the
earlier and the later revised edition) and I
reirard it as the best Cycloptedia published
for teneral use, both for popular and for the
general work. I say this advisedly, having
used Johnson' Cycloptrdia side by side for
years with Appletou s, Brittanica, and the
others.

The K. C. E. Reunion on Aug. 2Sth
The Executive Coiuinittse of tbe Knights
of tbe C Men Eagle "Western Combine!
Reunion Association' are nalonsly at work
making all necessary arrangements for the
occasion. ,
The Executive Committee has appointed
s number of sub-committees to assist in
making tbe reunion s great success. The
Transportation Committee has already made
arrangements with the B. t 0. R. P Co. for
special trains over all of its divisions in the
district, at one fare for the- round trip. Ar
rangements of a similar character are about
completed wiih the Pennsylvania Company.
All trains will arrive at Somerset before 11
o'clock a m.
Flattering report have been received from
s majority of the Castles and Commanderie
in the district. At least 15U0 Sir Knights
will be present to take part in the parade,
which is to eclipse anything the people of
Somerset county have ever seen. The fol'
lowing bands have been engaged : Mineral
City Band, of Johnston n ; Meyersdale Band
and Euterpean Band, of Somerset, and tbe
committee is corresponding with tbe South
Fork Band, Connellsville Band, Confluence
Band, Salisbury Band, Baldwin Band, Lis
tonburg Band and Petersburg Band. Tbe
day will be spent in the Woy Grove, one-
half mile south of town. Able speakers w ill
be present to deliver addresses. The danc
ing platform in the grove is being repaired
and the famous Royal Italian Band of Con
nellsville has been engaged to furnish music
for those who wish to "trip the light fantas
tic toe." The Driving Association of this
place have made arrangements to give a
series of races on their race course west of
town, which will be one of the pleasing fea
tures of tbe day.
No efforts will be spared on the part of the
committee to make the occason s memor
able one in the history of the Order.

Pleasures of a Trip to the Sea-Shore
via B. & O. R. R.
Over the mountains of Western Pennsyl
vania, down tbe picturesque and historical
valley of the Potomac, across tbe fertile
fields of Maryland, through Washington,
Baltimore, Wilmington and Philadelphia,
across the Delaware Kiver, and turongu
New Jersey to the shore of the boundless
ocean is the itinerancy of the third excur
sion of the summer to Atlantic City, on
Thursday, August 13th via B. O. R. R.
a trip well worth the taking for the beauty
of the scenery en-route, and the luxury of
the train service cf handsome coaches and
Pullman cars, independent of the delights of
a dip in the surf, of a stroll along the fa
mous board walk, and of a sail out at sea.
To farmers and those engaged in allied pur
suits the excursion is most opportune, com
ing as it does in the midst of the lull follow
ing harvest. Passengers by day trains can
spend the night in Philadelphia and take
any regular train of the Reading route the
following day, Friday, for the sea-shore.
Tickets will be good for return passage on
any regular train until Ag&rnst 22nd inclu
sive and on return journey will permit hol
ders to stop off at Washington, which at all
seasons has peculiar charms and most va
ried attractions for visitors.

It is hereby resolved by tbe Council of
Graef s church, that whereas. Brother House
man, who has been laboring as minister of
the Hooversville charge for more than four
years, has handed in his resignation on ac
count of failing health, and prays us to ac
cept it on account of the labor being too great
for him to perform, we, as Graefs congrega
tion feel it a privilege to heartily recom
mend Brother Houeman to any congrega
tion where the traveling will be less fa-
tipueirg.
Brother Honseman has faithfully and re
ligiously, as minister, labored amongst us,
and has been successful both spiritually
and financially in building op the church.
The Lord truly has been with him.
Brother Houseman and family bare, by
their religious example and walk among us,
en.ieared .themselves to all.
We as congregation feel that our Ices
will be tbe great gain of some other congre
gation. We heartily recommend Brother House
man in his calling as a faithful minister.

Letter from Nebraska.'
Beam City, July 20, IsOl
Editob Hi&ald
As I am a native of old Somerset perhaps
my friends would be pleased to hear from
me. through the Hikvld, about this part of
the country.
Southwest Nebraska can well boast of her
magnificent crops, of all descriptions, this
seaon. Wheat is yielding from 2-" to 30
bushels per acre; oat from UO to SO and eve
rything else U turning out proportionately
ell
Furnas county is well represented by peo
ple from Somerset county. At s reunion of
Pennsylvaniana last fall, there were over
thirty people from Somerset county. Among
them were Frank and George Seibert, Wm.
and Israel Baer, and and others of my play
mates.
I was raised four miles east of Somerset by
Wm. H. Fritz, and in the spring of 'U4 I
concluded to go west. When I reached bere
I took " Uncle Sam " at his offer and secur
ed 100 acres of land for I could not
make enough out of my farm for several
years to live, but in those days the county
only bad a population of about 3i0 ; now it
has over 8,tj0.

McCamant's Tax Scheme.
HasR'siteo, Aug. 3 Auditor General
McCamant is preparing his reply to Treas
urer Wright in reference to the abuse in the
mercantile appraiser system of assessing and
collecting. In this connection the Auditor
General declares that the present system of
collecting State taxes is all wrong. It is
too cumbersome and expensive. The Au
ditor Gtneral favors the budt ss!cml
which might fce applied iu tso wajs. Firet,
a commission would sit eai h fall and de
termine on the aruouut necessary to run tbe
State Government during the following year
and to defray tbe expenses of counties and
townships, municipalities to levy taxes for
their own expenses.
The Auditor General would wipe out all
or nearly all taxes, but the income, which
is the best method of taxation. Tbe
adoption of this idea, however, would be a
radical departure from the laws now on the
statute books and has been declared to be
inquisitorial, therefore the Auditor General
suggest another method of simplifying the
method of collecting State taxes. This is
to prepare tbe annual budget of the cost of
running the State and assess th counties
upon their valuation.
Wiped Out In Midair.
One afternoon about 3 o'clock, just before a
heavy shower, several gentlemen were sit
ting in front ofs store in West Nashville
when one of the party observed a large tur
key buzzard that was sailing majestically
across the sky, and remarked that if the buz
zard did not look out he would get wet.
Their attention was thus called to the bird
and all were lazily watching it flight when
suddenly, just as it was opposite and above
tbem, they were blinded by a flash of light
ning, which seemingly exploded on the back
of the buzzaad.
They were astonished somewhat, bet re
covered themselves aad looken for tbe buz
zard, but alas, the majestic bird was out of
eight. All that was left of him was a few
black lail feathers, which fluttered patheti
cally to the ground.
Those who witnessed the phenomena suc
ceeded in catching several of th scorched
feathers, which they exhibit in corrobora
tion of the story. Xunvilie American.
A Fisherman and a Bull.
Readiso, July 31. James M. Bennethum,
a Reading fisherman, had quite an advent
ure in hunting white worms for bait. He
obtained permission from s liern township
farmer to grub in an orchard, and while dil
igently at work was approached from the
rear by a vicious Jersey bulL In preparing
for a charge the bull grunted and snorted,
which caused Mr. Bennethum to hastily look
around. One glance was sufficient, and
leaving his grubbing hoe drop Mr. Ienne
thum ran to the nearest tree aud swung
himself into the limbs before the bull recov
ered from his surpri at the man's hasty
departure. But the bull followed and paw
ed the earth under the tree for an hour and
half, until Mr. Bennethum's loud cries
brought the farmer to his rescue.
A Frightened Family.
Thursday night tbe residence of Jeremiah
Nuthall, near West Newton, Westmoreland
county. Pa., took fire. Mr. Xuthall, with
bis wife and four children, was in an upper
story, and had it not been for an extraordi
nary occurrence tbey probably would all
bave burned to death. The fire started in
the basement. On the walls of the kitchen
were hanging two loaded shot-guns, and
W,hen the flames reached these guns they
exploded together, making a report which
awakened the family, who had barely time
to escape before the building fell in. Mr
Nuthall was severely burned and one of his
children slightly injured by a failing rafter.
The household goods were a total loss.
Enormous Wheat Crop.
Dclcth, Minn., July 31. On every hand
are heard glowing accounts of an enormous
wheat crop. Sjencer, Moore t Co., says :
"Think Minnesota and Dakota will have
1 10,'00,Oxi bushels. The harvest is late and
generally will not be finished for two weeks
yet."
I'p in th Red River country there are
magnificent yields of wheat, and nothing
but an early frost can now hurt it.
Millions of Buss Killed.
Madisos, Wis., July 31. A box of inoc
ulated chinch bugs was brought from Kan
sas some time ago and turned loese in s
heat field. Yesterday returns came in
from the farm where the experiment was
made that the ground was covered with mil
lions of dead chinch bugs. They had caught
the deadly malady from the inoculated bugs.
Farmers are rejoicing at the success of the
experiment.
Wheat Is Being Held.
Topee a, Kn., July 31. Very little
wheat is moving. Grain dealers insist that
the reason is that the wheat is not yet
thrashed. Those who remember the printed
circular sent out by the Alliance leaders re
cently firmly believe that the farmers are
taking the advice given in it and are hold
ing back their crops for bigger prices.
Rotten Eggs for Sam Jones.
Hocstos, Tex., July 30. Somebody turn
ed the lights out while Rev. Sam Jones was
preaching here last night, and the crowd
tired a fusillade of rotten eggs at him. Many
of the missiles took effect not only on Jones,
but a number of the audience who were
women.
He Could Hire a Substitute.
rmoRTows, Pa., August 3. Justice H. L.
Shank, of New Geneva, this county, has de
cided that the school board of Perry town
ship must y School Teaeher Woolsey,
who-n tbey refused to pay some of his last
term's wages, because be hired s substitute
to teach a week for him while he was absent.
Tbe board claimed that Woolsey bad no au
thority to hire any one to teach.
Wooisey sued them before Justice Shank,
who gave judgement in Lis favor. The board
has appealed the case to court and the mat
ter is one of much interest in school circles.
Ingalls Writing a Book.
Washihotos, Augusts. Ex -Senator John
James Ingalij, the picture ;t e Kansan, was
in the city to-day, on his way to Atlanta,
where he delivers a lecture on Tuesday. Mr.
Ingaila, since his retirement fiom tbe Senate
has been devoting a considerable portion of
his .time to writing a political book. Th
bonk will deal in contemporaneous history
in Mr. Injair inimitable style, and was writ
ten with the double purpose of airing his
political philpsopby and paying off some old
scores.
To-day Mr. Iugalls said he had made an
arrangement with a New York publisher
for issuing the book. It will not go to press
until Mr. Ingails returns from bis European
trip in the fall.
