Jacob I. Sjvank, tbe jevcler of this

chine cf his owa invention, which wili
doubtless bring him a handsome return
when it is placed upon the market. Ia this
day andgenerition bar keepers are generally
looked upon with distrust by their emp'oy
ers. and it wis to overcome any disposition
oa the ps-t of bar keepers to misappropriate
their employers money that led Mr. Swank to
make his invention. The machine referred to
is nothing les than a register fir beer keg, or
ary other vessel containing liquids sold by
tbe gljs. It registers accurately every c'.as
drawn f out the vessel and rings a bell wher.
the g'-isi bis been ti led. Mr. Swank
says the idea of the regV.er was suggested
to hiia by Mr. Liwson, formerly proprietor
of the Commercial Hotel. Liwson, it ap
pears.driov: that he ha 1 slab a device on
one of his kr.s. Tue next morning be told

for ' Colborn. Colborn." Others took it tip
and the demand was so irresistible that Mr.
Colborn must make a speech With Lis
most gracious smile Mr. Colborn s'epptd
forward and lilriy bedazzled his audience by
the brilliancy of his utterances and the old
Keystone fervor that permeated them. It
was a gt-cuiue piece of oratory and our elo

b.vrwhelme 1 wltb applause. Mrs. Potter
Palmer, president of the Board of Lidy
Managers of the gre.st fair, was on the plat
form and listened with rapt attention to the
address. The brilliant lady was so delight
ed that she approached Mr. Colborn and
heartily congratulated him oa his oratorical
success, judging his nationality by his place
of resilience, sid she had Welsh blood in
her veins of which she was proud of. Mr.
Colborn gracefully bowed bis acknowledge

Miss Matlie Halley, aged- 14 years, who
has been visiting al the home of Mr. Well
Knepper, in Brothersvalley township, met
with a serious accident but Sua lay a week
ago and her relatives entertain feirs that it
may yet terminate fatally. Miss Halley
and a little daughter of Mr. Knepper'a were
returning home from Berlin is a buggy,
wbeu the former, in attempting to rebate
the lines which had become entangled in the
barnes, fell forward in the road, lighting on
her head. The horse continued on toward
home until it was stopped by persons living
along the road, who were attracted by the
cries of the child still in the baggy. Re
turning to tiie scene of tbe accident they
found Miss Halley lying by tbe side of tbe
road in a delirious cond. lion. She was re
moved to the home of Mr. Knepper where
medical attention was summoned. A re
port reached here Monday that Mi Halley
had apparently expired.
After ail efforts to revive her bad been
made by physicians and bad failed, prepara
tions were made for burial. She was laid
out and the undertaker was expected to
place the body ia a casket for shipment to
Cumberland. Before he arrived the watch
ers noticed a twitching of the eyelids and
presently she aroused, although still un
conscious. The physicians were again summoned and
treatment for her recovery began. They ex
press their opinion that she will only live a
short time.

way of traveling in bugry or carriage. He
was over six feet tall, erect as an Indian and
made a most striking picture when mounted
oa one of bis large farm horses.

To the Highest Bidaar.
The Sheriffs sale of tbe personal properly
of the Cambria Lumber Company and of the
Shade Creek Railroad Company, occurred
last Wednesday, at the mills of the former
corporation ia Paint township.
PaeSoaie Credc Rulroad, a road between
seven and eigni tubes in length, recently
constructed aiung tue banks of Shads Creek
and extending from the S. 4 C. R. R. to the
mills of ths Cam tor ia Lumber Company, was
knocked down to S. U. Baker, of Pittsburgh
for $XVj4 J. Ths sale of the lumber Com
pany's effects realized $10,-Jid. Most of the
mulerlal sold was bought in by S. II. Baker,
tue same gentleman to whom the railroad
had beea knocked down.
It appeals that the Shade Creek company
owed the Cambria Lumber company over
fiii.ou), which it was unable to pay. Part
of the creditors of the Cambria Lumber com
pany secured judgment against the com
pany, and J. M. Head, of G reensburg, as trust
ee for certain creditors attached the proper
ty of the corporation to satisfy the e xecu
tions. All judgments not covered by the sale of
the personal property will, it is thought, be
sa'.islied by the sale of the real estate, which
will be sometime before the December court.
It is said that the sales took place more
for the purpose of reorganization than any
thing else. S. T. Baker, the purchaser, is one
of the principal stockholders. It is supposed
that certain stockholders had refused to
pay their assessments, and it was to weed
out Ibis class aad put tae company oa a
sound footing that the affair was allowed to
go as il has and be sold out. It is quite like
ly that there will bs a reorganization before
long.
The sale involved the largest amount of
money of any sale Sheriff Good has bad
during his term of office. Indeed it isdoubful
wtieiber ; Sheriff's tale involving a larger
amount was ever held in this county.
Tue sale attracted a large crowd of people,
among them being a number of well-known
attorneys from this place and Johnstown.

B. & O. Train Robbers.
Tbe report reached the B. O. officials at
Pittsburg, Wednesday, that robbers bad
planned to hold up the Express above West
Xewton, Wednesday night. Tae officials
gave credence to the report and set about to
thwart the robbers. The Express, known on
tbe road as No. 10, left Pittssurg on schedule
time, ?).: P. M., and ran to McKeesport. It
was held there 20 minutes, and Time Freight
So. S3, was run on the Express schedule
from there to West Newton. The freight
passed F.ilrod, tbe point at which the attack
wis expected, at a lively rate. The crew re
port that they saw several men standing in
a dark pass in the road, but they made no
attempt to stop the tiain. When the rob
bers saw tbe frei ht running on tbe Express
schedule they evidently concluded that tbtir
plans Lad beea discovered and retreated.
The Express left McKeesport with a body
of armed police in the express and ba gage
cars ready for the attack. Some of the pas
sengers learned of the threatened attack and
spread the report through the cars. Consid
erable excitement followed, and when the
train reached Conneilsville the excitement
bad not subdued. It is said there was i'-r
t) lucked np ia the safe in the express car,
an unusuuily large amount for this train to
carry.

Last Bulletin for the Year.
The weather crop bulletin of the Pennsyl
vania State Weather Service for the week
ending September 25th says the rainfall dur
ing tbe week was quite well distributed, and
was generally a little above the nsual
amount. The lightest rainfall was appar
ent'y in the southern counties and the great
est in the mountains.
Tbe crops, except late tobacco and gar
dens, are now so far advanced in growth and
so nearly harvested that little can be sa:d of
them. Winter wheat, where above ground,
loots very well. Corn is so badly tangled
that cutting ia slow and laborious. There is
much tobacco still on tbe stalk.
Reports cpon the potato crop indicate a
small yield, but of excellent quality. Buck
wheat suffered greatly from the drought,
end it seems to be the poorest crop raised
this year. Gardens are in good condition,
and have yielded well. Fruit is a light
crop, bat of good quality, and grapes are
said to be a full crop.

Samuel M. Williams, a clerk in the Ty

Meiaidi.trlcaliy speaking, last week was
wash we-k in the criminal conrisnfi. his coun

Was exposed to public view than at any term

from some of tbe wash was exueniely nau
seating to both the Court .and tbe public.
Happily for tbe fair fame t.f our county tbe
most scandalous cases were !ug;-e d here by
non-residents. It is certainly not edify ingto
see a minister cf the gospel defendant ia a
criminal proceeding, but when we pause to
consider what the exposure of such an one
means stripped of bis bo'y r.bes and reveal
ed iu all his norrid mgl.nrss we cannot r.eip
but think that tne cause w hich be has belied
has been bettered by his expurgation.
EVANGELIST SINtiEB CONVICTED or ASSACLT AND
B ATTEST.
The case of the Co-jmon wealth vs. R. H.
Singer, charged with attempted criminal as
sault, on information of Mrs. Aiioe Jeffreys,
attracted unusual attention on account
of the s cial position of lbe prosecuting wit
ness, and from the fact that the defendant :s
an evangelist of tte Disciples' cbutcb.
The case hsd been set for trial at last terra
but was continued oa application of defend
ant's counsel, who claimed that material
witnesses could Lot be present. Wbeu the
case was called for trial Thursday morning
Eider Singer entered the enclosure rewrvei
for members of the bar, court officers and
suitors aad took a scat at Lis counsel's table.
Singer was one of the last men in thi court
room that would have beea taken for the de
fendant ia a criminal action. He wore
a loose Suing black alpaca coit and looked
more like a visiting barrister than the de
fendant in an action for criminal assault.
The defendant wears nose glasses aad when
the list of jurymen was completed and hand
ed to his counsel for the purpose of challeng
ing, he leisurely adjusted them and rising to
his feet leaned over his counsel's shoulder
and apparently offered his opinion as to the
qualifications of the men who had been call
ed into tbe box. After the challenges bad
all been made and a jury of twelve had been
selected to sit upon his case, Mr. Singer re
sumed bis seat at the counsel tableand turn
ing bis face to tbe jury and the audience ap
peared as unconcerned as if he were only a.i
idle spectator,
(ien. Kooutz opened the case for the Com
mouwealth. He simply recited what the
Commonwealth would endeavor to prove
and concluded by staling that if the Com
monwealth made out her case beyond a rea
sonable doubts he would a-k for a verdict of
guilty.
STOET OF THE ALLZOED ASSAULT.
Mrs. Alice Jeffreys, the prosecuting wit
ness, was then Called to the stand. Mrs.
Jeffrey sis a rather pretty woman and im
pressed all who saw her with her modesty and
natural diffidence. She testitied that she liv
ed in Addison and was tweuty-three years of
age and a member of the Lutheran church.
Oa the thirtieth day of April last, being
Sunday, she went to the home of Dr. Hiram
Hartzeil for the purpose of calling upon a
cousiu who lived there. After she had been
there for a short time Mr. llarlzell and Rob
ert II. Singer entered the Louse aud by and
by several ladies, relatives of Mr. Hanzeli's,
came in. A religious conversation concern
ing baptism by emersion was sprung and af
ter a little debate Dr. Hartzell retired to aa
adjoining room to sleep. Tne voices of the
persons ia ths sitting room disturbed him
and be asked that the door between the rooms
be closed. At this juncture Mr. Singorsolicit-
ed Mrs. Jeff.-eys to accompany him to tne
parlor ia the wing of lbe building and sepa
rated by a hall from the room in which Mr.
Hartzell was resting. She assented after he
bad invited her a eecuud lime, giving as an
excuse fordoing so that she had every conn
dencein a minis erof lbe gospel. I'pon enter
tngthe parloi Singer couducted her to a sola
and tl.eu returned to the door sad Locked il.
Advancing to the witness he asked her if she
did not like him and asked the privilege oi
kissing her. She repulsed his advance? and.
a ccording to her story, for a period of be
taeen one and two hours Dallied against
his caresses and torments. Finally Singer
banded hera bible aad after kissing it him
self requested her to press her lips agaiust its
sacred covers and promise never to reveal
what had occurred in "the parlor. She de
cided to promise, when Singer uulocktd the
door and permitted her to depart, lie
turning to the dining room thi witness
secured her wraps aud returned to her home,
arriving there about six o'clock in the even
ing. Her husband was ready to start away
and after lunch he left and did not return
until the following Tuesday. Monday
evening Mis. Jeffreys' rather than be left ail
alone io the house, accompanied a relative
to church to hear Siuger exort. Following
the services Singer called at her house and
was admitted, there being a number of ether
people present Tuesday morning after she
had become calm and collected witness told
her husband of tbe indignities she had
suffered at the hands of the defendant, Sing
er, Sunday afternoon. Witness afterwards
subscribed to the information against him
before a justice of the peace. Tnis e onclu 1
ed Mrs. Jeffreys direct testimony, much of
which was unfit for publication.
Mrs. Jeffreys was cross examine j at grea"
length by Judge Baer but he was nnable to
get her to depirt from herorig-nil story, or
to get her to contra liat heroeif in a single
particular.
Mrs. Jeffreys told the story of her humilia
tion in a low, hesitating voice aa 1 repeatedly
had recourse to her handkerchief in order to
hide her blushes and the tears that tiled
her eyes. She Impressed ail ia tbe oourt
room with the trtithfuilness of her story and
aroused the greatest sympathy for her morti
fying position.
All the time Mrs. Jeffreys was oa the wit
ness stand betweea two and o.ie half and
three hours Singer occupied a chair imme
diately in front of the witness. Hi never
took bis eyes from her face when she was
preparing to reply to a question from coun
sel. Frequently he held his open hand
back of his right ear iu order tha' nothing
that she might aay should escape him. As
soon as she bad given her ar wer to a ques
tion be would industriously write it down
in a tablet he kept on Lis knee. IPs posi
tion and conduct Could not have been other
than very trying and embarrassing to the wit
ness and it is certain that it created a most
unfavorable impression against him in the
minds of the people who crowded the court
room, if not ia the minds of the jury itself.
This tablet that the defendant resorted to,
appeared to be in the nature of a diary. The
last few leaves of it were closely written and
he referred to it frequently when prompting
bis counsel in regard to asking questions.
Walter Jeffreys was the the second witness
called for the Commonwealth. He testitied
that defeudant bad admitted to witness that
he had done wrong in luring his sister-in-law
into the parlor, that he was sorry from the
depths of his heart for the way in which be
bsd persecuted her, aud that she was a good,
true, uoble and christian woman. Oa cross
examination the witness admitted tbat be
bad told a contradictory story in regaid to
his conversation with Singer but that was
before Singer's misconduct bad beea made
public,
Tbe morning following alleged bis admis
sions to Walter Jeffreys, Singer left Addison
He was subsequently arrested at Lock
Haven, Pa-, and brought to Somerset aad
lodged in jsil.
This was substantially all of the evidence
offered by the Commonwealth.

The defendant eorrcr.orattd the t-i-t'n.ony
of Mt Jeff-eys snbstat tialiy until the time
lliey went into lbe pnrlor at liar! zeli's. He
said that she had sphered a o.r.versa'ion
with him on tedious ms'ier and he.l-rlered
positively that he bad no, assaulted her and
that Le had not made any corcprotrablfe
propositions to her. He further sai l that
there was not a Bible in lbe room and that
before Mrs Jeffrjys took her departure she
reque-ied him to keep the subject of their
conversation (Sapusra by immersion) to
himself, as her liu-.' e 1 wss an enmy of
tne Disciples' crurcb and of imrnersbin.
She said th..t she was willing to Le immers
ed. Tb following night she came to hear
him preach and acveplrd a hymn book frcm
his Lands, and in a conversation held with
her in the church she invited him to ber
home. He visited her home the same even-
ILg.
Oa cross examination Singer deni-I that
he hsd ever been exj--:iel from any ehurcb,
or that he had ever been convicted oa a
charge similar to the one bebig trie.!.
In regard to the testimony of Waiter Jeff
reys, the defendant said that it wss ui qual-
iGedly false. Walter Jeffreys solicited an I
interview with him and Mid him what he.
had Leard of Ms misconduct. He replied
that tbe woman's conduct would give the lie
to any such accusiiions, that he was entire
ly innocent and that if such a siory was to
be sprung against Li in that he would remain
in Addison and fight it out. He ! I not lbe
from Addison, but left in order to keep en
gagements previously arranged. Singer in
sinuated that tbe prosecution was the out
growth of denominational jealousy.
Eider Singer was a most wiliiug witness
and his counsel bad bard work to keep him
within bounds.
Dr. Hartzell and his ding' ter-in law testi
fied that when Mrs. Jeff.-eys ca-ne fro in the
pailor she showed no in j.cati o-is of lnvin.t
gone through a t-jing ordeal. That she at
tended church tbe following evening and af
ter wards entertained the defendant at her
home in company with a number of other
people. Had she made an outcry while iu
the parlor with Singer they would Lave
beard her.
Waiter Jeffreys was recalled aid al.mit.i
