A Startling Rumor.
A report from Stonjereik township eays
that people of that section are greatly agita
ted over developments that tave recently
been made which goto show ttat a cold
blooded murder was committed in the
mountains east of Hhanksville, aome lix
years ago. It is further said that the matter
will be thoroughly investigated by (he local
authorities, and if tbe rumors ia circulation
can lie substantiated the trt.s suspected
of the crime will be steiiiy brought to
justice.
I urir.g tbe years of 1 v-Si; a German ped
dler visited the eastern township of this
county every few weeks lor tbe purpose of
supplying farmers with buttons, thread,
handkerchiefs, cheap jewelry, etc. Hia vis
its were so frjnent that be soon became
well known to the people, and when be
suddenly ceased to visit Ihtrn inquiries were
at once sent abroad to learn of bis where
abouts. He was tracked to the " mountain
distillery " one b'eak winter day. where he
put up for the night, setting out to peddle
his wares after breakfast the following morn
ing. Here all trace of the peddler was lost,
and nothing has- ever since been seen or heard
of him.
About the time the peddler disappered a
well-known resident of stonycretk, of unsa
vory reputation, left for the west, and a year
following a neighbor of his began to peddle
thrad. buttons, lace, cheap jewelry, etc.,
among the people of that section.
No suspicion was attached to the action
of these two men at the time, but a story
now told by a young girl of the neighbor
hood in which they lived has revived many
suspicious circumstances which aid to its
credibility.
The story told by the girl in f!tct is that on
the morning the old German peddler left the
distillery on the mountain he had not pro
ceeded more than two or three miles when
he was attacked by two men, one of whom
shot him. while bis companion cut bis
throat. They relieved him of hia pack, af
ter whioh they draggeJ his body some dis
tance into the woods and buried it. The
trajredy was witnessed by the girl, who is re
sponsible for the story. She was only ten
years cid at the time, and owing to threats
that the men made against ber life, she was
always afraid to reveal what she bad seen
until a few weeks ago.
According to our informant the girl's story
has mated a profound sensation, and ia ful
ly credited by those with whom he talked,
and it is expected that it will be fully veri
fied in the course of a few days when an ef
fort will be made to exhume the bones of
the murdered victim.

A Scmersot County Man's Invention
Samuel Critchiield, of this couuty, is the
inventor of an ingenuous arrangement by
which railroad engines can take coal with
out stopping, ilia apparatus is constructed
above the tra- k in such a war 'at when the
engine comes along, a trap is sprung, empty
ing the ejal in the tender.
The Dew arrangement would do for the
taking if coal what the water tanks in the
center of the track has doae for taking water.
A great deal of valuable time would be saved
and the expense of stopping and starting
heavy trains for this purpose, which would
thea be abolished, would be a considerable
item.
The apparatus will be constructed on the
Pennsylvania road somewhere between
Johnstown and Altoona and a test will be
made on May 15. It is believed by those
who are familiar with this kind of business
t lat the invention will be a success and that,
it will soon he adopted on the leading rail
roads. Bucklen'i Arnica Salvo.

The Ten-Block System.
Tbe ten -block system of numlering coun
try houses, which was some time ago in
troduced in Contra Costa county, Cal., is
said to have worked very successfully. Tbe
basic principle is the same as the system in
use in most cities, with the additional ad
vantage that it gives not only the location
but also the t xact distance of every bouse
from a given point. The eiunty seat being
taken as the centre, each miie is divided
into ten blocks, and two numbers are given
to each block, the odd number on one side
and the even number on the other. When
there are several houses in one block they
have the same number, with the addition of
the letters A. B. C. and so on. To calculate
distances it is only necessary to divide a
specific number by two to determine the
number of miles from the county seat.
Postmaster General Wanamaker has, it is
said, given s)me attention to this subject
with a view to its importance in connection
with the extension of the free delivery sys
tem into the couutry. With such a system
in operation a residence in the country
couiJ be located as readily as it might be on
a city street: and with the establishment of
good roads the postal facilities of the coun
try would be almost cjaal to those of the
towns.

A Rascally Tramp's Devilish Deed.
From tlw- Connellsvllle Courier.
Jack, the Hair Cutler," visited Connells
viile !at week, and made a victim of Miss
Florence Guard, daughter of tbe late Tbos.
Guard. Miss Guard resides with her moth
er at Cedar avenue and Washington street,
South Side. Between C and 7 o'clock, last
Friday morning, while she was alone in the
kitchen pre;ring breakfast, a burly tramp
apieared. Without saying a word he walk

the morning meal, picked up a loaf of bread
and a knife, sliced the bread down and put
it in his pockets, after which be filled his
p- kets with eggs from a basket near by.
While ail this was going on tbe young
woman stood paralyzed with fear, and made
no outcry to arouse the other members of
the family, a ho were up stairs in bed. Her
visitor started toward tbe door, but sudden
ly turned and made a spring for the young
mimn. seizing her by tbe hair with one
hand, while in the other he heid a razor, and
cut her tresses from her head close to the
scalp. She screamed for help, but before the
other members could get down stairs the
villain had Ijed, and was nowhere to be

but to disfigure the woman, as he threw the

THE NEW BALLOT LAW.
The Blanks for Putting It In Oper
ation Issued.
The County Commissioners have received
from Secretary of the Commonwealth Har
rity copies cf the fjr(ns of blanks provided
for putting the new ballot law into opera
tion and a copy of the new ballot law. The
blanks consist of a certificate of nomination,
a nomination paier, as;xiojcn of an olh
cial baliirt, a letter to the County Commis
sioners and Sheriffs, certifying nominations,
with letters of transmittal to the same offi
cials, and a watcher's certificate.
The most inn resting cf the blanks is tbe
specimen ballot which will be voted at tbe
November election. It is a sheet 19 inches
long by 1" inches wide, divided into four
columns. Tbe first column contains tbe
names of tbe Republican candidates 32 for
Presidential Electors, two for Gongressman-at-large,
one for judge of tbe Supreme Court,
one for Congress, one for the Senate, two for
PepresentaLivss, one each for District Attor
ney, and Poor Director. The second col
umn has the names of the Democrats for the
same ofHcts.the third column the names of
the Prohibitionists, and the fourth column
is left blank to permit the voter to write the
names of candidates not printed on the
ballot. Alongside of the name of each can
didate is a small blank space for tbe voter to
mark the cross, which indicates his choice.
If a citizen desires to vote for all the candi
dates of one party, he can do so by placing a
cross alongside of the title of the party, at
the head of tbe column containing the name
of the candidates of that party.
Attached to the specimen ballot is a stub
which is to be bound in book form and
numbered consecutively, and from which
the ballot is to be separated when it is given
to the voter. This stub contains, besides
tbe numi-er, tbe inscription that it is the of
ficial ballot of a certain election district, th e
dae of tbe election given, and the names of
the County Commissioners. On the back of
the ballot is tbe same inscription, which is
to be exposed when the voter presents the
ballot to the election officer, to prevent the
voting a blank piece of paper and tbe carry
ing away of the ballot. The opper corner
has a gummed edge, to be pasted over tbe
number of tbe ballot.
The certificate of nomination is a blank to
be filled out by tbe presiding officer and two
secretaries of the convention nominating
candidates for office. It certifies that the
candidates were named at a convention rep
resenting the party whose title is given.
Then follow the names of the candidates,
with their business, pi see of residence, and
the title of the office for which they were
nominated. On the back is the form of affi
davit subscribed to by the presiding officer
and secretaries of the c invention that the
nominations are valid.
The nomination pa-r is a blank to be
signed by electors desiring to place in nom
ination candidates for office without the me
dium of a convention. These papers have
to be signed by one-half of on per centum
of all the electors in the state if the candi
date is nominated for a state office. In tbe
case of all other nominations the cumber
of signers shall at least bs three per centum
of the largest entire vote cast at the preced
ing election in tbe district in which the nom
ination is to be made. When this is com
plied with the secretary of the common
wealth is compelled to put the names of
the candidates thus nominated on the offi
cial ballot.
The watchers' certificate is a blank filled
out by the county commissioners, giving au
thority to a citizen to remain in the voting
room. Each party is entitled to three watch
ers in each division, but only cne watcher of
each party is entitled to be in the room at
one time
The other blanks are provided in compli
ance with ruction 9 of the ballot law, which
provides that the secretary of the common
wealth shall transmit to the commissioners
and sheriff of each county, ten days before
election, the names of the candidates nom
inated in their respective counties.

Tortured by Masked Men.
Mrs. Nancy Branson who lives at a seclu
ded point in Ml. Pleasant township, West
moreland county, was subjected for the sec
ond time within a few years to awful torture
by masked robbers Friday night. At a late
hour Mrs. Bronson, who lives alone, was
awakened from her sleep. Two m?n stiod
by her bedside and demanded her money.
It was generally supposed that the lady bad
considerable wealth, and that she kept it se
creted in her bouse. She told the robbers
that she had no money at hand. They did
not believe her, aud procec led to abuse the
lady in a horrible manner, torturing her un
til she fainted. Fnsuccessful in their efforts
to get tbe woman to reveal the hiding place
of ber money, the robbers ransacked tiie
premises, but only Kuceeedcd ia getting a
small amount of money.

HOLLIDAY. Andrew Holliday died at
his home in Ursina on Monday, February
2!), isyj, in his Ttih year.
Hia remains wera interred at Cross Roads
cemetery, near Ursina, on Wednesday,
March 2nd, with the honors of w ar, by Ross
Rush ost,No. 3C1, G. A. R.of which he
was a comrade. Tbe deceased was of Scotch
and English extraction. He was born near
the famous 'box poplar,' on the farm recent
ly owned by William Hanua. He was mar
ried at the age of 13 years to a Miss Engle, of
Elklick township. After her death he mar
ried a Miss Nicola, who was 13 year old,
while be was about ) years old. Mr. Holli
day was the father of 17 children ; the com
bined weight of four of his largest sons wa
near SO) pounds. Previous to the war Mr.
Holliday was known as a man of great phys
ical strength, but he came out of the army
an invalid, the result of malarial fever, and
of a severe sunstroke, both of which proved
very nearly fatal at the time and in the end
proved the cause of his death. His brother,
Thomas Holliday, waa a soldier of the war
of 1S12, and was connected with campaigns
against tbe Indians, having been killed at tbe
Kiltanning massacre. His grandfather, John
Holliday, was killed at the battle of Cow
pens, January 17, 173 1. His grandfather
McCay was wounded in battle under Mont
gomery, and died on the march to join the
army in Nortn Carolina, under General Go
ler, in 17TG, One of Andrew Holliday's sons
Jerry, was a member of Co. F. 6:h W. Va,
Cavalry, and died in the service. Another
son, Cyrus, now living at Uniontowa, enter
ed the service with bis father at the age of
11 years, and carried a musket until the
company was mustered out. Mr. Holliday
had 32 nephews in the Union army. An
uncle of Andrew Holliday was the founder
of the town of Hollidaysburg, Pa. Mr. Hol
liday was a good reader, and was well versed
in the local and natural history of the county-
C.
LEPLEY. Daniel Lepler was born Au
gust 12, 17'J3, and died March 7, K)2, in the
ninety-third year of his age.
The childhood, vouth and manhood, to
the age of about fifty years, of Grandfather
Lepley, were spent in his native township,
Southampton, this county.
He was a farmer by occupation, but also
served iu other capacities. For a number
of years be was justice of the peace ia
Southampton. Afterwards he was elected
to the cilice of county commissioner, and
served one term. At about tbe age of fifty
he moved toGreenvilie now Larimer town
ship on a farm previously bought by him.
Here he built a saw-mill and afterwards a
grist-mill and a planing mill. Tbe planing
mill was the first mill of the kind in thia
county.
In his early manhood he waa united in
marriage to Elizabeth Bcal, also of South
ampton township. Tea children was the
result of this union three sons and seven
daughters. One son, A darn C. L?p!ey, at
whose residence he spent tbe latter years of
his life, and five daughters still survive him.
Their grandchildren, at the time of his
death, numbered SO, and the great grand
children 4L His wife died in the yesr 1874,
having seen ail her children except one at
tain to manhood and womanhood. Several
years later be married Elizabeth Hoffmire
Wilhelm.) Death soon severed the union
again and claimed his second wife. Thus
he was left to finish his earthly pilgrimage
alone.
Grandfather Lepley was a member of tbe
Lutheran church. During the vigor of his
manhood be regularly attended the services
ef his adopted denomination. A Christian
spirit characterized his dealings with his
fellowman, and the poor found him "a friend
in need." I believe it can be truly said of
him, "He was an honest man," and an hon
est man is said to be tbe noblest work of
God. While Mr. Lepley was not without
fault, being but a man, we know be had
many good qualities. Differing in some of
his convictions with those of his fellow-beings,
we still know that be loved the truth,
and those things which help to ennoble and
elevate humanity.
During his retired life, while his mind
was still unimpaired, it seemed to be his
chief delight to be surrounded by his grand
children. A number of these were greatly
aided in their early education by hia intelli
gent instruction
Both bis mind and his body were impair
ed during the latter years of his life and he
became 'a child again." Very little bodily
suffering, however, fell to his lot. Daring
the last months of his earthly sojourn he
was confined to bis bed most of the time,
growing weaker from day to day, until
death called him away.
Followed by a large number of friends and
relatives, his remains were laid to rest in
tbe Mt. Carmel cemetery by the side of those
of his first wile. May his ashes rest in peace
The funaral took place March ',

For Farmer Taggart.
Wilt bias, while the order of "Patrons of
Husbandry" disclaim any political or party
functions, as an organization, we believe
that it is the duty of the members of the
order to use all honorsb'e means to secure
the nomination by all lolilical parties of
such men for legislative offices as will regard
the interests of the farmer with equally as
much care as they devote to other business
interests of the commonwealth, and,
WiicKEA. We have found Eon. Austin
L. Taggart, of Montgomery county, to be an
able ahd earnest advocate of farmers' inter

The gallows never welcomed a nioie de

executed atTutkhannock, this Jae, Tues
day morning. On the 2'2ud cf July last, a
series of jealous quarrels, for which there
was only slight, if any, excus culminated
in the murder of bis young wife, after an
exciting chase tbn.ugh the long grass of bis
meadow. During the chase Mrs. Wall fell
to tbe ground exhausted, but before the
murderers double-edged axe was driven in
to her brain, cried oat: "For God'S sake,
Charley, don't kiil m !" The only answer
she received was a blow which cleft her

his nature and made his end seem far too
easy for one of his revolting instincts.
