POISONED LUNCH
AT A SALE
Meat Cooked in a Copper Kettle
Followed by Disastrous
Results.
More or less excitement was created here
Monday afternoon when it was learned that
Jeremiah Ringler, a prominent resident of
(jaemaboning township, had died at an
early bonr that morning from tbe effects of
poisoning. A short time afterwards it was
reported that Alex Rhoads, a leading farmer
of Jenner township, bad died from the same
cause, that ten or twelve other farmers of the
north cf tbe county were critically 111 and
that at least fifty others bad been effected by
eating poisoued meat at a sale held Thursday
last at tbe residence of tbe late William
Holder, in Q iemahoning township. Those
effected by the poison are scattered all over
the north of the county, and a number live
in Somerset and tbe immediate vicinity.
It is customary all over this county to
prepare a cold lunch for all persons who at
tend sales in the rural districts, and on this
occasion tbe people wbo had charge of
Holder's effects prepared among other arti
cles a lot of cold beef that had been boiled
in a copper kettle the day before and stood
in the vessel over Dight.
About two hundred and fifty people at
tended the sale and most of them partook of
tbe meat Soon after eating a Dumber of
them became violently sick. None of them
knew to what cause to attribute their sick
ness. John Tayman, of Lavansville, who
was one of the auctioneers at tbe sale, was
one of tbe first effected. He says that
shortly after lunch he had intense griping
pains in his stomach and was soon after
wards seized with fits of vomiting. He
managed to keep bis feet during the after
noon and came to Somerset that evening.
He was still very sick when he reached here
and said he thought he would die before
be arrived borne. He continued ill uulil
Sunday. John A. Walter, of Somerset, tbe
other auctioneer, was also effected by the
poison, but not seriously. Frank Miller,
clerk in the Register and Recorder's otnse.
ate a piece of tbe meat and was sick at tbe
stomach the balance of the day and through
out tbe night. He did not know wba
caused tits sickness. Wilson Banner, of
Somerset, was similarly effected.
Persons wbo attended tbe sale ssy that
Ringler ate very heartily of the meat and
about a half-hour after eating complained
of feeling very sick at bis stomach. He
returned to his home and continued sick
Thursday night and Friday. Saturday
pnysician Irom sioyestowa was called in
and ne soon d.scovereu tnat Ringler was
suffering from poison. Tbe physician, npon
inquiry, learned that his patient had been
poisoned by the meat he had eaten at the
Holder tale. Tbe physician was powerless
to eradicate tbe poison and Ringler lin
gered in great aguny uniil Monday morning
wben he expired.
Among other rumors afloat is one to tbe
effect that the persons wbo were preparing
the lunch fur the sale had added a large
lot of salt to the boiling wa vr in which
the meat was cocking. The salt had the
rect of removing every particle of verde-
gr.s iroin tbe sides ot ttie Eet'le and it con
taminated the beef.
Every effort was made before going to
preas Tuesday evening to verify the report
that Alex Rboads bad fallen a victim to the
poisoned meat, but from the best informa
tion obtainable he was not seriously effected.
People from Jenner township, who are at
tending court, say tbat they beard nothing
in regard to Mr. Rboads' sickness, and had
he died they would certainly have learned
of iu
The other' reports in regard to farmers in
the north of tbe county being critically ill
as a result of eating the poisoned meat, are
now thoroughly discredited.
It is well settled, however, tbat a large
number of persons were more or less ef
fected by poison after eating the meat.
For Charity
The entertainment given in tbe Opera
House last Thursday evening for tbe benefit
of the local Children's Aid Society, was by
long odds tbe best amateur performance
ever given in this place. Tbe bright par
ticular star of the evening was Miss Mary
Zeth, of Hopewell, Bedford county, wbo
recited "Leah, the Forsaken," in capital
style. Miss Zeth's elocution was excellent.
and ber gestures were the perfect on of girl
ish grace.
The Merchants' Carnival was a really
splendid spectacle and elicited long contin
ued applause. Nearly every business house
tn town was represented by a charming
young miss, attired in costume illustrative
of tbe business of the firm she represented.
All of the costumes were unique, and a ma
ority of tbem were very pretty. This waa
especially so in tbe case of Miss Swank, who
represented the First Xa tionsl Bank. She
was arrayed in a red satin dress covered
with bank notes and drafts. A necklace of
gold coins adorned her throat, and a gilded
crown completed ber costume. It was a
matter of regret tbat the stage was so small
as to hamper the young ladles in executing
the marches they had practiced so patiently
and in which they had acquired such great
proficiency.
Tbe drama, "Among the Breakers," per
formed by some of tbe best amateur talent
in town, was a delightful aurpriss to tbe
audience. It was a more artistic perform
ance than two thirds of the travelling the
ories! companies visiting Somerset give.
Master John Colborn won theencomiums of
the large audience by his very clever por
trayal of a colored servant.
Killed While Smoking Her Pipe.
Monday, about one o'clock, when No. 11,
was descending the Alleghanies a short dis
tance west ofGiencoe and was rounding a
curve, tbe engineer saw just ahead an old
lady sitting upon the track. The train
could not be stopped in time to save ber and
the engine strut k her. Upon stopping tbe
train, tbe lady was found to be Mrs. Hutzell
who lived near Glencoe. She was put on
board tbe train and brought to Hyndman,
where she died a few minutes after from her
injuries, wnicn wereols snockmg character.
Undertaker Hitchcock took charge of the re
mains and npon the following morning they
were taken to ber home where the burial
took place.
Her son from Rook wood and a number of
relatives from Glencoe come to town Mou
sy evening and returned in tbe morninc
with the remains. Mrs. Hu'iell was about
seventy-two years old. Why she was seated
pontbe track in such composure can only
be accounted for by supposing tbat she did
not appreciate the psrilous position she oc
cupied. The engineer states tbat she was
smoking a pipe contentedly, fier son Sam
uel Hutx?ll is track foreman at Rock wood.

A Cross In the Heavens.
At 10 o'clock Wednesday night thousands
of people in Oil City and vicinity were gaz
ing at a marvelous spectacle in the heavens.
High towards the senith in the east a bngh
cross, white in color and indescribably bril
liant, blazed in the sky, while the moon en
circled by a starlight, made a beautiful cen
tre piece. At each corner of the cross ap
peared to be huge balls of living fire of all
colors of the rainbow. Tbe phenomenon
lasted for nearly half an hour.
Tbe meteorologist silence tbe superstitious
by saying it was caused by a pr culiar condi
tion of the atmosphere and the presence of a
thin cloud that formed a sort of leos, caus
ing a refraction of the rays of light from the
moon.

Change for Teachers.
The great offir being made by the Pitts
burgh IHspatch to take tbe sixty teachers of
the public schools of Pittsburgh, Allegheny
and other points in Pennsylvania, Ohio,
West Virginia and Maryland to Atlantic
Cilv in Julv is the talk of the hour. The
additional inducement that the twelve teach
ers of the siity who receive the largest
number of votes will be taken on a supple
mentary trip to Philadelphia, New York
and Boston after lie Atlantic City trip is
over is indicative of the liberality which
governs the Pittsburgh Ditpatck in every
thing it does. Give your favorite teacher
tbe benefit of a splendid summer outing.
