Tbe following night William Sutler's place
was visited aud his smoke house was robbed
of everything it contained. The robbers are
plying their vocation amongst the farmers
between Buckstown and Berlin. The farm
er?, il U said, are organising a vigilance com
mittee, and they are determined to look af
ter the culprits and protect themselves
against the acts of the roblters. It is the
impression of the people in that portion of
the county that the deeds are being commit

though thty ti.au n;e to eracje the o dicers.
When the long line of pensioners ranged
op before Agent Bengough at Pittsburg
Wednestlay it was learned that fully 2-'0
Dames had been dropped since the last pay
day under tLe new rule. Disability ceased"
was marked opposite them and there was no
money for them.
Old weather-beaten soldiers walked up to
the desk as they had done for many years
past, and with the full assurance that they
would get tbeir pensions. The look of aston
ishment and disappointment that came over
tbeir countenances was painful.
An unusual occurrence took place when
Mrs. Haymaker, widow of Obadiah Hay
maker, returned the checks sent her by the
Pension Department. Her husband was
killed teverai years ago while defending an
oil well and for a long time she was unable
to obtain possession of her property. Recent

Her husband followed ber into the great be-
yoca the l.rxl morning, lie was .3 years
of age and bad for many years suffered from
the tortures of Bright' disease and was
stricken with paralysis ahout ten days prior
to his death. The immediate cause of Mr.
Etnlsley's death was heart failure. Husband
and wife were la!d to rest in the same grave.
Sunday, in the presence of a vast concourse
of people, many of whom had been attract
ed by the unusual sight of a double funeral.
Mr. Endsley was the eldest brother of Dr.
A. J. EacUley, of this place, and was one of

J. B. O'Connor's Daughter Hurt.
The many friends, in this county, of
lawyer James B. O Connor, of Johnstown,
will be sorry to learn of the accident that
befell his two-year-old daughter, in that
city, Friday evening. Mr. O'Connor and
his daughter had started to drive to For
wartlsiown, the home of the former's ar-
ent's, and stopjusl at a house of a relative ou
Main street. Tbe carriage was driven
close lo the curb aud Mr. O Connor alighted
anil went into the tious?. .tie returned to
the street iu a moment and held tbe horse
by the rein. Ia a few minutes a street car
rounded a corner close by and the horse be.
came frightened and backed the carriage in.
to the car, despite Mr. O'Connor's etrorts to
control the animal. The crash threw the
liiiie child headforemost under tbe feet of
tbe horse and completely wrecked the car
nage. Tbe little one was rescued by her
father nd carried into house close by
and Dr. Bowman was called upon to dress
tbe child's wounds, which were very serious.
I ae rtgiu ear, wuu surrounding Hash, was
torn almost off by the horse's feet, and there
was a wound above the right temple large
enough to admit a person's finger. The Dr.
stitched the wounds, and says the scars will
be almost invisible. It is thought the little
sufferer will recover.
Meeting of the Farmers' Alliance.
The regular quarterly meeting of the Som
erset County Farmers' Alliance was htld iu
Odd Fellows Hall, Somerset, on Saturday
Mb inst. All but two of the sub alliances
of the county were represented by regularly
elected delegates. The meeting, which was
quite an interesting one, was presided over
by President B. F. Snyder, Prolhotu.tary
fleet F. P. Say lor. othcia'.ed as Secretary,
and that old time aH mocrat, Jonas McCiia-
tock, of Addison township, as Treasurer, re
ceived the dues of the sub-alliances. Ttie
mtetiiig was quite harmonious and brother
ly. Mr. Chas. II. Fisher, B. . Snydet and
Elitor W. V. Marshall, of the Berlin IZtcir,t,
were elected delegates to represent Somerset
County at the annual meeting of the Penn
sylvania State Alliance, which this year
convenes at Meadville, in October.
After the discussion Cf the tax question
and the passing of resolutions advocating
the graduated lax idea, and the election of
I". S. Senators and the President and Vice
President of the United States by direct pop
ular vole of the people, tbe County Alli
ance atijourned.
The next quarterly meeting is to be held at
the county seat, which locality meets with
popular favor.
Meyersdale Wants It.
A meeting of tbe German Baptists of the
western district of Pennsylvania was held
in the church at Geiger's station last
Wednesilay. A large number of delegates
from tbe ditlirem congregations were pres
ent. Among other business transacted was
the election of seven committeemen to se
cure a place in this vicinity to hold the An
nual Meeting in May, lsfl. The names of
the committee are as follows : J. B. Hoi-
singer, of Bedford county ; C. G. Lint, Val
entine Blough, N. II. Davis and W. G.
Schrock, of Somerset county ; Joseph Hols
opple, of Indiana county, and Stephen Stutz-
nian, of Cambria county. As will be seen
four of the seven members of the commit
tee come from this county and it looks as
though Meyersdale will stand a pretty good
show of getting the meeting. A haif-doz-zen
other placei are striving to secure tbe
meeting, Johnstown, perhaps, making the
most united effort. Meyersdale successfully
entertained the vast crowd of people who
attended the Af.nual Meeting held at that
place some years ago, and with the facil
ities that town has since acquired for Land
ling large crowds of people, there can
be no doubt about its being the most desira
ble point in tbe western part of the State
for holding the meeting.
Shaking the Tree.
There was quite a stir among local Demo
crats Saturday evening when it was learned
that Chairman John, Jonas McCliutock and
a number of other leading members of that
party were in town. Chairman John said
that he was here oa private business and
that the meeting of so many politicians of
the same household was purely accidental
and had uo political slguiiioaace. r Mc-
Ciiutct said that be had intended going
home but missed tbe train. The other gen
tlemen all offered excuses fjr their presence
in town, but somehow cr other they all
managed to get together in General Coffroth's
office as as soon as night set in. The Her
alo is not in a pvuitiua to tell what occurred
in tbe General's oSW. but -it is creditably
informed that after the doors had been lock
el t hairman John grabbed the plum tree
and, after giving it a vigorous shake, was re
warded wilh two plums, one labeled "dis
trict storekeeper," and Ibe other marked
"storkekeeper and giuger." All the other
members of the party tried their bands at
shaking the tree, but no fruit fell. Finally
General Coffrolh pulled a long black slate
from under the table. A number of names
were written on tbe slate and there was a great
craning of necks to see whose they were, in
fact, il is said that at least two members of
the party have carried their beads on their
lei: shoulders ever since, as a result of the
strain they endured. One name after anoth
er was taken o5 the slate anj a new one
written in its place until at las! only the re
quired number of names o fill all the In
ternal levenue appointments in the county
remained. The various appointments will
be given out from Ibe Collector's otli. in
the course of the next few days ami the
appointees will be the " Simon pure stuff."
The Jurors Drank Whisky.
The arguments of counsel on a m jlion
for a new trial in the Salyards murder ca
occupied the court all day Wednesday at
Carlisle. The liquor drank by tbe jurors
during tbe trial was the principal issue and
counsel for the defense bold that under the
rulings of the higher courts a single drink of
whisky furnished a juror is sufficient cause
for a new trial. In this case it is proved
that all but two jurors took whisky or beer
regularly three times a day, and the county
aid a bill of $02 for extras furnished by the
hotel during tbe trial.

Another Fruitless Attempt to Cap
ture Prltts.
So many stories have been in circulation
the past three weeks concerning tbe move
ments and whereabouts of "Bill" Pritts, the
fugitive murderer and moonshiner, aud so
loud and persistent have been the demands
that be be corraled and brought here to jail,
that Sheriff Good decided to make oce more
eilort to capture sly old William. Friday
evening tbe Sheriff summoned a posse of ten
or twelve men and left town for the moon
shine country under the rover of darkness
It was St-emed advisable to take a round
about way to the tome of the Prills' ami the
poe.-e accordingly d;ew up at Jones' Mills
late in the til ht. From Jones' the posse
proceeded to Pritts' home. William was
not there and tbe members of his family
denied ail knowledge of him. Their denials
were taken with a grain of salt, and the
Sheriff detailed a number of men to search
the deep ravine below Pritts' house. Noth
ing came of it, however, and no trace of the
siy old moonshiner could be found. At the
house of a neighbor it was learned that
Pritts was at tbe home of Dr. Hunter, a
physician who testified ia the Hochstetler
case, and whoee home is on the Fayette
county side of tbe mountain. Several of
the Sheriff's posse visiied the Doctor's home,
only to learn that he had left a short time
before for the purpose of visiting a patient
six miles distant. This was thought to be
an important clue, as it had been generally
understood that Hunter was taking care of
Pritts' wounded arm. Several men followed
the Doctor to the house where they had
been toid he had gone, and sure enough they
found him there. He denied all know ledge
of Pritts' whereabouts. Tbe posse then
searched the houses of a number of Pritts'
relatives and persons believed to be in sym
pathy with him, but to no effect.
Tbe Sheriff says that all the people of that
vicinity expressed a desire to be rid of Pritts
aud volunteered to do all in their power to
capture him. Tbe Sheriff "winked tbe other
eye," wbeu asked if he believed that they
meant what they said.
It is eajy enough to tell how to f o about
capturing Pritts, but people familiar with the
mountain where the moonshiners hold forth
say that it is next to impossible to do so. Pritts'
home is surrounded by a dense thicket and
and he caa lay concealed within loo reds of
it and watch all that is going on in the build
ing. He would have no trouble ibey say in
eluding a thousand men for months, provid
ing be could obtain food. It really seems
that if the old moonshiner is ever brought
to justice it will not be until after he has
voluntarily surrendered or has been starved
out by a posse sent to capture him.
Has His Coat Off Now.
From the Pittsburg Times.
Gen. A. U. Ccll'roth, ex Congressman and
general manager of the Unterriflpd in and
about Somerset county, came to Pittsburg
yesterday at the heat! of a deiegalion of the
"frosty sons of thunder," whu are ambitious
to help the Government out in tilling places
in the Internal Revenue service Gen. Cof
frolh and his constituents enjoyed a loi'g
interview wiih Collector E. P. Kearns and
w hen they left the Federal buiMi .. they
locked contented and happy. Gen. CuU'roth
looxs as fresh and vigorous ts he did in l-"7t',
when he was accepted as ti e I)emotmtic
leader ia the lower bouse of Ctntgress. II. a
closely cropped beard is probably a shade
whiter, but he is still active and pha-anl.
He is just as active in his home politics now
as he was then and his main strength lies in
his attention to th- wants of bis friends.
His district is largely Republican, but bis
friends talk of nis running again lor Con
gress.
Successful Teachers.
The Pittsburgh TVno, Saturday morning,
published the names of the winners in the
contest that has been going on for the past
six months tode!ermi:ie what fifty teachers
should be Sent to the World s Fair and en
tertained thereat the expense of that paper.
None of the fottunates hail from this .unly.
although had the voters in the contest ac
cepted the .advice olleretl in thesecolumus
and concentrated their strength on one can
didate the result would have been different.
Tbe teachers from this county who received
over I,.. l votes are as follows: Coder Ada.

Capture Bill Pritts-
Frjra the Altooua Tribune.
l'.ill Pritts, the Someiset county moon
shiner, is get ting entirely too much notoriety
at the expeiis-eof the Somerset county au
thorities aad the United States olMcers. Not
long ago be was reported ai having bled to
death from a wound in the arm. But the
latest advices are-to the t fleet that be is still
above earth and in the hands of his friends.
If tl. is latest report be true both the local
authorities of Somerset county and of the
general government should see that be is
promptly corraled. The case as it now
stands is a disgrace to both wings of the
Law.
The fact that be is " in the hands of bis
f.iends'' has nothing to do with the case.
By shielding an outlaw these " friends" also
become outlaws and are amenable to arrest.
Ererji few weeks taere comes a stirring tale
from the southern stales of a battle between
I'nited Stales officers and nioonsainers. It
Cuuies in glowing rhetoric and wiih a super
abundance of adjtctiTes. Can it bo that
tnere is more bravery ia the average south
ern United Sutes marshal than those who
are supposed to have cognizance of the
Pritts case in Somerset county.
further. Pritts is a murderer the slayer
of Hochstetler. Are ths Somerset county
cials so eay minded as to leave this blot
01 tbe escutcheon of the county and allow
h'.ni to remain a free man .' The public is
b.-coming tired of the Pritts business and
d jubly tired of the excuse made for tbe fail
ure to capture him. As the case now stands
there is no necessity to go outside cf our
neighboring county to learn of the law be-
ng persistently and successfully defied.
While this case is before pnblic attention it
is not necessary to go soma to huat for
evasions of the law.
Still on tlio Map.
Tbe following from the Johnstown Dem-
ocrnt, of Monday, will doubtless prove to
beasgreatariirpr.se to our readers as did
tbe news that be was dead, lo the lamented
"Hutch"' Saylor. 'Butch" said be "knew
t was a lie as soon as Le heard it."
A report reached John.-town late Saturday
night that Somerset bad been visited by
another conflagration aud that tbe whole
city was burning to the ground.
The rumor nread rapidly and was circu
lated on what apeared to be reliable au
thority. Wbeu eunday morning arrived a
large crowd boarded the B. & 0. train and
vinted tbe scene of tbe supposed fire. Long
before noon, however, the information was
received at the B. A O. nation that there
was 00 foundation for the rumor and that
Somerset was still 00 tbe map.
Tbe story that tbe city was barning down
was readily believed, since everybody knows
bat Somerset is almost wholly without fire
protection and practically at lite merry of
the fire fiend.

The Court House oflicers were considera

received a letter from Auditor General Gregg
instructing them that "the State is entitled
to receive one-half of ail the fees after the
deduction of j J,ii and the expenses oftheir

ly from $J,5oi to $f.i" in fees, all of which
has heretofore gone to the incumbents. The
enforcement of the law will therefore take
from to $1,000 per year from each of
