The patieut, however, was fully conscious of

ble courage bade his family and friends be
prepared for the hour when his spirit should

MEETING OF THE UNWASH
ED AND UNTERR1F1ED
DEMOCRACY.
THEY HOLD THEIR COCSTY COS-
VE.VTIOX AND HAVE A HALCY05T
AND VOCIFEROUS TIME.
The warring factions of the Democratic
party in this county have been unusually
active the past ten days. It would appear
strange to some that a party in such a bops
lass minority as the Democrats are in Som
erset should have anything to fight about.
Tbey do not have any offices to contend for,
and party nominations are only empty
honors never sought after, bat bestowed
upon the faithful by "Boas" Co ff roth, who has
had a mortgage on that party since long be
fore the war. The General most possess a
great "think tank," since be baa been per
mitted, or perhaps has assumed, to do all
the thinking for his party In this county
and nominate its candidates for county of
fices ever since he became a voter.
His delegates have for years come to town,
as they did to-day, and before venturing to
speak marched quietly into his back office
where they reseiv ed their instructions.
Several years ago a small handful of Dem
ocrats ia this borough threw off the Coffroth
yoke declaring that tbey were old enough
to think and act for themselves in political
matters, as they are compelled to think
and act for themselves in business matters.
Each year this small band baa been in
creasing in numbers and to-day has a fol
lowing in every election precinct in th
county.
This morning tw rival political shops
were opened up. The larger and more pre
tentious one, of course, was located in ''Boss'
Cofirotb's back ofhee, while the opposition
threw out their sign in front of lawyer Val
entine Hay's office.
The "Boss"' heelers were busy through
out the morning conducting delegates into
the back office of their chief, while Chas. H
Fisher and A. L. G. Hay were equally active
in looking after their wing of th party, and
endeavoring to keep their delegates out of
the way of Coff.-oth's cowboys.
A. L. G. Hay bad announced himself as a
candidate for Chairman of the Democratic
Co. Com., several weeks ago, and being an
active young limb of the law, with political
aspirations, his chances of election were re
garded as favorable, until "Boss" Coffroth
concluded that he would look after this
campaign himself, inasmuch as prospects
for a bot fight on the judicial question are
looked upon as encouraging. Hay couldn't
command enough of the "stuff" to conduct
a campaign, and for that reason it was neces
sary to elect a chairman who bad a "bar'l.'
and Frank John, Msyeradale'a wealthy
lumberman, was just tbe man to fill th
bill. John was at once entered as a candi
date, and the vote in the convention this
afternoon showed that he bad not been
asleep, but had made a thorough and effect
ive canvass of tbe county.
After Mr. John had been elected Chair
man or tbe County Committee, an attempt
was made to placet the Hay-Fisher wing of
the party by throwing them a " sop " in th
shape of a nomination for Associate Judge.
The nomination was tendered to Wm. H
Hay, of Meyersdale. Mr. Hay promptly de
clined the nomination, saying he "would ac
cept nothing at the hands of(Au convention,"
and from the way in which he emphasized
ViiS, it was evident that he thought the con
vention had been unfairly set up against his
sou. Chairman John rushed back to where
Mr. Hay was sitting, and after a few whis
pered words, shouted, " I'll show you wheth
er or not there are gxxl Democrats in Mey
ersdale !"
At this point big, good natured J. M
Hay, of Salisbury, lost the smile be con
stantly wears and shouted back, "th Hay's
have been used as tools long enough." This
speech was greeted with applause by th
delegates, and before it bad subsided Chair
man John found bis way across the court
room to where "Boss" Coffroth was sitting,
After a moment's consultation he nominated
M. Hay, for Associate Judge, Mr. Hay
declined to have his name considered.
The names of J. M. Topper, of New Balti
more ; Daniel K. Cramer, of Middlecreek ;
Daniel Bru baker of Berlin, and a half-dozen
other gentlemen were suggested, and were
withdrawn by delegate authorized to speak
for them. For a while it looked as though
the "Boss" would be unable to find a candi
date to do battle against honen ah Bie-
secker, the Republican nomine, but finally
Herman Johnson, of Larimer, was declared
the nominee by acclamation. The prob
abilities are that when he finds out that be
has been placed npon she ticket he will
withdraw.

Farmers Being! Victimized.
Ad expose is being made at Greenabarg of
th National Union Live Stock Cotnany, of
ML Union, Fau, and hundreds of th farmers
of th eaunty, who claim to hare been vic
timized, are coming in to take a hand in the
matter. It appear that at least l.OOu farm
ers and stock raisers of this county have been
swindled, or at least an attempt has been
made by this company to obtain money front
them by fraudulent means.
-it was alleged that the company was a
stock concern ; that no asseesmenta or du
wer laid, except animal due ; that a policy
was good for only one year, and that in cas
of th animal's death th full amount of th
insurance would be paid. It is claimed by
th farmers, however, thai after their signa
tures had been placed on the policy th doc
ument, without exception, bad been tam
pered with, and that in every instance th
policy read that only three-fourths of th
amount of the face of the policy would be
paid ; that th policy ran three years, and
that the policy holder was compelled to pay
does and assessments levied at tbe pleasure
of th company.
Th case of the farmers are cow being
held before a justice at New Florence, and
although the testimony of all the insured
proves that the policies have been changed
from th original form, yet the justice has
held the parties for the payment of the as-
ments in accordance with the policy sub
mitted by the company at the hearings. Tbe
policy holders will go into court and air the
matter thoroughly.
A typical case of tbe practice of the com
pany is that of a prominent farmer of Unity
township who had a valuable mare insured
by tbe company, he stating in regard to the
health of the health of the animal that she
was liable to attacks of colic. After being
insured the animal died, and the company
refused to pay.
Official Announcement of LIueten-
ant Oslo' Death.
Front tbe Army and Nary Register.
Colonel Poland, Seventeenth Infantry, has
issued the following order announcing the
death of Lieutenant Alexander Ogle: "It
ia with sincere sorrow that th regimental
commander ia compelled so soon after his
accession to the command of th regiment,
to announce to tbe officers and enlisted men
thereof the death of First Lieutenant Alex
ander iOgle. Liutcnant Ogle was bom at
Somerset, Pa.. April 12. 149, where bis
childhood and youth were spent. He enter
ed the U. S. Military Academy at West Point
8ept. 1, IStid, and graduated June 14, 18;
H was commissioned second lieutenant in
the Seventeenth Infantry, promoted to first
lieutenant June 28, 137S. From September,
1884, to October, 1837, be was on general re
cruiting sen-ice at Columbus, Ohio. He was
adjutant of the regiment from January 30, to
July 1, 1389. From May, 1S90, to June,
1891, he was on duty as professor of military
science and tactics at Ohio State University,
Columbus, Ohio, which detail he was obliged
to surrender 00 account af failing health.
His last days were spent among tbe scenes
and friends of hi youth in tbe vain hope
that rest and change of climate might afford
relief from his malady, Addison's disease of
the kidney. He suddenly expired on the
8th inst, at Pittsburgh, Pa., whither he had
gone for medical treatment. Thus departed
in the prime of manhood one who was in
every way an ornament to the regiment and
to the service. His military career, with the
exceptions above noted, was pa-eed on duty
with his regiment on the frontier, and
belher in the hardships of campaign or the
comforts of garrison life, his kindly wit.
generous spirit and tbe true nobility of soul
were manifested at all times. His devotion
to bis family, to friends and to duty won
him the respect, confidence and esteem of all
who were associated with bim. His death
has deprived the regimentof oneof its bright
eat ornaments and its officers have lost one
of the most agreeable of companions. To
his sorrowing family the since rest spmpathy
is extended. In respect to hi memory the
officers of the regiment will wear on the
word hilt the usual badge of mourning for
30 days."

A Thrllllnc Accident.
From Johnslowa Herald Saturday.
Yesterday afternoon a cattle dealer of
Hooversville, named Home, was driving a
lot of cattle to this city when a thrilling inci
dent happened near th Red Bridge, about
four miles south of this city. In the drove
were several large steers, one of which was
very violent and created a great deal of
trouble on the way.
At this point the cattle were allowed to
go to the river to get a drink, when a lad
about fifteeu years of age, who was helping
to drive tbem, was sent to bring them out-
As he approached the drove tbe large steer
went for him and forced him to run in the
water, where the animal followed bim-
Here it overtook the boy and caught him on
its horns, lifting bim high in the air.
The animal was now thoroughly infuriated

Hymen and the Teachers.
Hvnien has been active among some of tbe
teachers of Somerset county.
Mr. Charles E. McMillen and Miss Ada M.
Augustine, both teachers in AdJison town,
ship, have bowed at his shrine. Thej- were
united in holy wedlock Sept 15th, at the
home of the bride. Hev. Geo. A. Bover
listed by Rev. S. A. Parker, performed the
sacred rit in the presence of the numerous
guests who were assembled to enjoy th fes
tivities of the occasion. It was indeed a
pleasant day for all who participated. Xo
pains wer spared by the parent of the bride
to add to the happiness and enjoyment of all
in attendance.
There were about seventy guests present.
and the day was one of social pleasure and
enjoyment. Tbe guests seemed to vie with
each other in the merriment of the occasion,
and the sound of merry-making was heard
everywhere, and was expressive of that feel
ing of good will which existed on every
hand. The bnJe received many beautiful
presents.
The newly married couple have every rea
son to be encouraged in the step they have
taken, and if Somerset county has lost two
of her faithful teachers, the has gained in
this, that she has added another to the num
ber of her faithful and prosperous homes.
Tbe bent wishes of their maay friends follow
tbe newly married couple to their future

Baking Fowder that can b depended
npon to be tree from lime and alum is a de
sideratum in these days of adulterated food.
So far as can b judged from th official re
ports, tbe " Royal " seem to be the only on
yet found by chemical analyses to be entire
ly without either of these substances, and
absolutely pure. This, it ia shown, result
from the exclusive use by its manufacturer
of cream of tartar specially refined and pre
pared by patent processes which totally
move tartrate of lime and other imparitii
Th cost of this chemically pare cream of
tartar is much greater than any other, and
it is used in do baking powder except th

It is a cream of tartar powder, and does no
