siccalled upon Hon. Jeremiah Maurerand
congratulated him upon the outcome of Lis
candidacy for tLe Republican nomination
for Assemblyman. Mr. Maurer responded
in a few happy remark. Among other
things hcaid was that be felt it an honor to be
the first man ever nominated for the Assem
bly from the ancient village of Stoyestown.
After leaving the residence of Mr. Maurer
the party proceeded to the residence of Hon.
William H. Miller, where the same program
was gonethrotigu with, the 'Squire deliver
ing an address, which was followed by re
freshments. Why is it that a crowd always collects
around a building in course of erection and
carefully notes every movement made by
the workmen? It is not a peculiarity of
Somerset eople by any means. The same
fact has been remarked npon all the world
over. From now on until the soow begins
to Hy a crowd can be confidently looked for
at all hours of tbe day in the vicinity of Mr.
Vannear's hotel, now in course of erection
on the south-west corner of the public
square. Every other man will Lave
some advice to oiler, and all are of the opin
ion (confidentially of course) that they
could improve upon the work being don.
Last week masons commenced laying the
first course of foundation atone. In the
center of the trench a small drain was dug
and iille 1 with broken stones, and on top of
this huge stone from four to eight feet long,
three feet wide and ten inches thick were
laid. Nothing of tbe kind had ever before
been seen in 8omerset, and as one of tbe on
lookers expressed it "Mr. Vannear is pre par
ing a foundation firm enough to bear the
weight of tbe eternal bills, certainly strong
enough to bear tbe weight of a twenty
aiory building." It is said tbat it will re
quire at least sis weeks, if not two months,
to complete the foundation wall for the new
hotel, and that when the foundation ia .fin
ished one half of the work on the bouse
will have been dona.

eve-preens the procession marched to ths
Court House, where a meeting wai called to
order in the court room and the orator of
theday Elder Muileudore, of the Disciple
Church was introduced. Without mean
ing to de-tract from the many eloquent ad
dresses that have been delivered in this place
on similar occasions it can be said that but
few if any of them have ever equaled the ad
dress delivered by Elder Mullendore. It is
a matter of regret that tbe inclement weath
er forbade the orator from speaking in the
open air where all who desired an opiortu

dona so. As it was tbe court room was
filled to overflowing.
Four "Record" Items.
Rev. J. L. Kimmel, who entered the min
istry of the Brethren church a little over a
year ago and moved from Stonycreek town
ship to Louisville, Oliio, where he has been
filling a pulpit since, Is spending a few weeks
upon Lis native heath. His wife and chil
dren accompany him.
Bsgiuing with to day Mr. John O. Stoner
will pay 40 ceuts p.-r ton for mining coat, a
raise of five cmts. This is a piece of volun
tary action on the part of Mr. Stoner that
will undoubtedly be appreciated by the men
working for him. He is ready to give em
ployment at that rate to several more men
than he has now in his mine.
John Sevitta, living about four miles north
of Berlin, cut a deep gash into the instep of
bis left foot Thursday morning while he
and a companion were at work making
fence. Mr. Sevitls was chopping at a pole
and tbe pole unexpectedly rolling away
caused him to make a mistroke and hit Li
foot.
Mr. Harvey Berkley, Cashier of the First
National Bank, Somerset, paid Berlin an
unexpected visit Sunday evening, through
Laving boarded the wrong train when re
turning from the annual meeting at Meyers
dale. Harvey was welcomed by his many
friends in town just the same as if he'd come
a purpose and being accomodated tbe next
morning with an early start off overland for
his place of business, was but little incon
venienced by Lis slight misclimb.
AT
F. E. Hall and Jobn Wallace, two i Urged
Johnstown "crooks,' were arrested at Meyers
dale last week charged with picking tbe pxk
eta of the unwary who were in attendance
at tbe Brethren meeting. Both were granted a
bearing before Eiitira Floio and in default
of bail were remanded to jail for trial. Sat
urday Hall was released from jail, a gentle
man from Westmoreland county giving
bond for his appearance at the next session
of criminal Court. M mJay a postal card
signed by Hall and addressed to John Welsh
was received at tbe jtil. The card was mail
edal Johnstown audit is evident from the
address that Wallace has giveu the ollicer an
assumed name and that Lis alleged con fed
ate could not recall bis aluu when be wrote
the card.
It is claimed that Hall approached Jobn
McKenzie, of Sand Patch, at Meyersdale last
Wednesday and asked him to change a dol
lar bill. McKenzie was unable to accom
modate him, but in a few minutes afterwards
he found that bis pocket book containg HI
was missing. Several parties had seen Hall
with McKenzie and as soon as tbe latter
made known Lis loaa they secured Hall's
arrest.
Tbe same day L. E. Berkey, of Shade
township, caused tbe arrest of Wallace,
charging him with the theft of a watch, razor
aud pocket book; all to the valneof$l'.
Wallace is atill in jail.
Persons who Lave seen tha prisoners say
that tbey were both in Somerset prior to
going to Meyersdale and that while here
tbey were soliciting aid for the Johnstown
strikers. Oue gentleman who claims to
havs known Wallace in Johnstown by tbe
name of Gore addressed him on the street,
but tbe prisoner declined to recognize him.
A number of pick pockets were intercept
ed by the Pittsburgh police on their way to
Meyersdale. Several detectives from that
city attended the Annual Meeting for the
purpose of keeping a lookout for any of tbe
rogues who might escape the vigitence of
their fellow officers in the city.
Summer Weather.
"Rev. Irl Hicks, the weather prophet,
makes the following predictions for tbe
coming summer, in Lis paper, H'urd and
Wutki : We believe that June will be propi
tious for agricultural interests, to all who will
make good use of their opportunities. Let
crops be planted witb all tbe haste consistent
witb thorough preparation, and let tbe
arley stages of cultivation be as rapid and
perfect as possible. With a clean, pulverous
condition of the soil, as a geceral thing
there will be ample moisture in June to start
and even mature crops, especially the early
crops in all the southern parts of our coun
try. Tbe Venus equinox in July is favora
ble foi rains of more or less frequency, even
in that month, so that all crops tbat can be
broutfht to maturity by August may, we
think, be counted on witb mush assurance.
We fear tbat the "hot winds" and much
lack of general rains will work greatly
against farmers who are caught with crois
whose success detiends upon good seasona
ble conditions after the middle of July.
Crops that cannot be matured so early
should, by all means, be given unceasing
cultivation. A perfectly clean thoroughly
pulverized soil is almost absolute proof
against tbe inroads of drought, for even
weeks and months. Prepare for the worst
then you will not only be ready should it
come, but if the worst does not, you will be
prepared for the benefits of the best. The
care and preparation we insist upon are on
the side of common sense and the most trust
worthy experience."
Hole in trie Ground.
We learn from Garrett that L. C. King he
been drilling quite a number of wells in or
near that place. We have heard of ten or
more drilled at that place during tLe past
few weeks. He must move on to New
Lexington where be is to drill one for C. B.
Moore, tbe well-known merchant, as soon
as possible. From the present outlook it
looks as though Mr. King will have to work
bis machinery double turn in order to satis
fy bis many customers. His office is in the
Knepper Biock, Somerset, Pa., where Le
can be seen at all times when not out cf
town.
Lirowlng Peppermint
There are two places in the United States
where the cultivation of the peppermint
plant is one of the leading Industries. The
older of these places is Wayne county. New
York, but for a quarter of a century tbe bus
iness bas been a well-known oue in SL Jo
seph county, Michigan. In the latter place
a farm of about 40U acres is planted with the
miut each year aud alternated witb clover to
keep up the strength of the soil. The cul
tivation of the crop requires more than or
dinary care. From the tiins the mint ap
pears above tbe ground it is constantly cul
tivated and boed to keep it fies from weeds,
which are the bane of the peppermint grow
er's existence. Two or three crops are gath
ered from each planting. The first and sec
ond crops are the bst, and twenty pounds
of oil to tbe acre is considered a good yield.
The third crop is apt to be weedy, and the
yield only about ten pounds to the acre.

Hubert Deran, a French Canadian, Las
had patented an invention which he calls a
"grave signal." He is now in Pittsburg for
the purpose of having Lis signal manufac
tured. Devan has worked for ten years ou
his idea, and claims to have solved the prob
lem of saving the unfortunates who may be
buried alive. His device consists of a piece
of ordinary gas pipe six feet long, with a
glas globe about tbe size of an incandes
cent lamp on one end. The piie is arrang
ed to screw onto a brass plate at the Lead
of the coffin. Tbe pipe will extend beyond
the plate and within a fraction of an inch
frcm the head of the corpse
Through tbe center of tbe pipe a plain,
smooth stick is placed, one end of which
rests on tLe forehead of the person in the
colli n ; the other end of the stick is in the
glass globe, with a red cloth attached. Tbe
moment the person comes to life aud moves,
the stick will be forced through the pipe,
and the red cloth the signal will be dis
played. The signal cannot be seen unless it
is pushed op from the forehead of the per
son. At the sa ne time the signal is dis
played, a number of small apertures open at
the base of tbe globe, and fresh air is forced
down tbe pipe aud into the nostrils of the
supposed corpse.
When the pipe and appliances are fixed
to the coffin, the grave is filled up in tbe
usual way, leaving about two feet of pipe,
with the bulb attached, protruding above
ground. The inventor claims that in cata
lepsy a person msy be dead to all intenta
and purposes for a period of eight days, but
never for a longer time. Some one could be
hired to watch for eight or ten days the
graves of those who have died nnder suspi
cion of catalepsy or kindred ailments, or
relative could visit the graves daily. Ac
Cording to Devan, the way has been opened
to do away with the haunting fear so many
people have of being buried alive.
Preserving Tool From Rust.
A good plan for preserving tools from rust
ing is the simple preparation employed by
Professor Olmstead, of Yale College, for tbe
preservation of scientific apparatus, and
which be long ago published for the general
good, declining to have it patented. It is
made by the slow melting together of six or
eight parts of lard to oneof rosin, stirring
till cool. This remains semi-fluid, ready for
use, tbe resin preventing lancidity and sup
plying an ait-tight film. Rubbed on a
bright surface ever so thinly it protects and
preserves the polish effectually, and it can
be wiped oil nearly clean, if ever desired, as
from a knife blade, or it may be thined with
coal oil or benzine. JliyJ Enginttri Journal.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
Grand Jury Recommendation.
TLe members of tbe grand jury last week
insi ecled all of the eounly buildings and iu
their reiKirt to the Court retouiuiende-d that
a number of repairs be made. We rrgret to
see tbat the grand jury failed to concur in
tbe recommendation made by the preceding
grand jury in regard to building a new kitch
en for the jail. We believe Ibat their failure
to do so was an oversight, as a close inspec
tion of the apart ment utilized for preparing
food for the Sheriffs family and the inmates
of the jail cannot fail to show it to be in an
nnlit sanitary condition. As soon as tbe
borough Board of Health gets into working
condition it will be well for tbem to give
this matter attention.
Tbe grand jury recommend that the Court
House be given a complete renovating; tbat
the system of dry closet In the jail be re
paired and reserved for tbe exclusive Use of
the inmate and the court officers; that a
new closet for the accommodation of the
public be erected ; that a new building be
erected at tbe County Home for the accom
modation of the inmates as a sitting room,
and that it be provided witb heat, light and
water the same as the other buildings erected
for their comfort The report com plimeuts
the oilicers of the Home as follows :
4 We visited and examined the County
Home and found the buildings neat and
clean, the inmate well cared for, and all
things in good order. The Steward and
Matron deserve praise for the fidelity with
which they discharge the doiiea of their
oflice."

Will Meet In Illinois Next Year.
Nearly all of tbe Brethren who were
present at the annual meeting at Meyers
dale last week have returned to their homes.
A numlier of the delegates from the west
visited Washington, D. C, after the close of
tbe meeting. Others are visiting among
the Somerset county Brethren. Oueof them
speaking of the conference just closed, said:
"The weather was worse than at any con
ference we bave ever held, and interfered
greatly with the meetings. While it was a
large attendance, about 1,000 being present,
it was not nearly what it would have been
bad the sky been clear. All sections of the
country were represented and some plans
were adopted which I think will greatly in
crease the strength of the church.
' Tbe rivalry between the places for our
meeting next year was so spirited that con
siderable feeling was engendered. The con
test lay between southern Illinois aud Cali
fornia. The Southern Pacific railroad bad
its agent on the ground, and be worked bard
to have the meeting held on the Pacific
coast. It was too far west, however, and
many of the delegates refused to vote for it
on that account. After a tharp contest
Canton, III., was selected for our next meet
ing. All the leading railroaas had repre
sentatives on the ground, and worked to
bsve a place selected that was touched by
tbeir lines. Many offered exceptionally lew
rates if they could only get a chance to car
ry the delegates.
" Notwithstanding the bad weather, tie
people of Meyersdale made ample prepara
tion for our entertainment, and there was no
complaints from any one. One thing is
sure, the people of Meyersdale know how to
feed delegates, as there were provisions in
abundance, and that goes a great way iu
making a gathering of any kind a success.''

Coxey Willing to Quit.
Commonwealer Coxey is tired of prisfin
life, and is represented as being quite willing
to quit if he can only get bis liberty before
the expiration of bis 20 days' sentence.
which has still nine days to run. This is
indicated by bis transferring bis command
to "General" Frye and sending all his best
horses home to Massiilon.
Coxey says Le will be in Harrisburg, Pa:,
on June 17, to make a speech.

Kansas Farmer Sad Pligrat.
A dispatch Irom Topeka, Kansas, Satur-J
day, says : Reports from the western part
of Kansas are very discouraging, and show
tbe wheat crop in that section to be a total
failure. Unless the conditions immediately
change the.e will be no corn raised. In
many counties there has not been any rain
for more than a year, with the exception of
light showers. Tbe people of tbat section
are illy prepared to withstand another crop
failure. Many farmers are without means
to buy provisions to tide them over another
year, aud tbe prospect of another failure will
force many to leave the country.
Deserted Appomattox.
It was announced in the newspapers that
Decoration Day would be celebrated at Ap
pomattox by tbe erection of iron signboards
to mark tbe location of tbe two armies at
tbe hour of the surrender, but Major Davis,
of the army, who bas charge of such affairs,
tells me, writes tbe Washington correspond
ent of the Chicago llecurd, that he had beard
of no arrangement of tbe kind. Tbe sign
board were placed nearly a year ago. The
old town of Appomattox, he says, is entirely
deserted, with the exception of five or x
families, of whom only one, that of a Meth
odist clergyman, is white. A syndicate
bought up all the property a lew years ago,
as a speculation, and when the owners got
their money and signed tbeir deed tbey
moved away, leaving their booses empty.
Tbe Court House was burned about the seme
lime and a new one was erected at the rail,
way station about three mile distant, where
a considerable town has sprang np. The
McLean house, in which the articles of sur
render were written and signed, was purch
ased by the syndicate and was taken down,
brick by brick, for removal to tbe World'
Fair, but for some reason Ue plan was not
carried out, and the bricks and timbers are
still stored in tbe vacant bouses in the neighborhood.
Powder
Findings Not Keepings In Law.
The interestirg qaestion, "Is a finder of
valuables iti. the street guilty of 'ar--eny
wbeu Le retains and conceals Lis prize,
whose owner he has no means of knowing."
was raised by a jury's verdict of guilty in a
cae before Judge Arnold, io Philadelphia,
last week It was the prosecution of a col
ored youth, John Miller, who on November
2 last found a diamond bracelet worth $S00,
which bad been lost by Mr. Annie Donnel
ly. The lad kept Lis prize in a trunk until
May li last, when he offered to pledge it for
whatever loan a pawnbroker, might offer.
The latter asked Miller where he got the
bracelet. The reply was: " From a lady
friend."
Being suspicious, the pawnbroker notified
the police, and Miller was arrested. Tbe
young prisoner said he bad no idea the
bracelet was very valuable ; he thought it
was made of brass and some cheap stones,
so bsdu't looked in tbe newspapers to see
the advertisements which Mrs. Donnelly
bad published, offering a reward to tbe
finder.
In the trial Assistant District Attorney
Fiuletter said that Miller's lie about tbe
ownership of the bracelet indicated his
guilt. Attorney Ford, for the youihful de
fendant, said. that his client bal a perfect
right to claim the bracelet, as there were at
marks u(jon it or anything by which it could
be traced to its original owner. He will ap
peal from the verdict and demand a new
trial.
