Clerk. I .J ii: Mi i ;;i: .u:.
Director of the 1'oi.r.
In siii'iitittiii liiis oar annual r.'iH.it
of tUe hotis,. of J anployment of Som-
erx-t County we are reminded of this
s:i:iiiii-mt fact: In April of tiie
pies, lit year, we V ill ceh oral- the one
l u:iilr-i;ii t.n'dvcrsary or centennial
of the coii-iituthig :;iid oia'iii-h'.n
of Soiner-et Cotmfy. Ia April, we a!-i
can (ilchrate tiie liitieth anniversary
r lii-ceiitcmii;;! of t;iee!al l.shing an-l
constituting of the House of Kmploy
in.'iit of Smicrsit County.
ur county we all have reason to lie
proud of. Siie ranks fifth in iiuiuIk r
as to territory, and first among the
(utilities of the state as to the produc
tion of eminent lien. Her wealth is
untold and undeveloped, Imt it remains
a fa'-t that i.hnost her entire surface is
underlaid with ci:d and rich de'xirits
of :.ll oilier minerals.
Her grand old mountains, lofty
jM-.iki, U-autiful valleys, wide spread
ing ta'-le land-, and fertile fdades, give
In r sjji r.'or and greater ailvai.tagi-s
over many of the (Mitnties of tiie state.
Her citizens, nio-tly di-si-.-n h-nts from
The original IVntisylvania Dutch, they
are in.-lu- triou-, intelligent, thrifty,
christian and patriotic. No place in
the world do the jHi.p'e live h.-tterand
longer, enjoy life more, and at the same
time have a higher regard to the duties
they owe to their tod and fellow man
than in onr grand old County ofSim-
orset.
At the first call for tr.xijis, when the
ir:tiou w.-.s in ji-rii, company after
ni;npa!iv voluntecml and were mare'n
ed to the front ; many of them having
lilid down their life in dcfcr.se of their
country, while scons of others returned
maimed and wotinded, telling more
liiieiitly tlian words the struggles
and hard-hips they endured.
While we rejoice over the extent of
our territory, tho wealth of our county,
the K-av, thrift, intelligence and con
tciitna nt of our citizens, and the pros
jicriiyof our county, yet there is one
Thing alone that lu r jHi.plo should Ii-jiro-id
of more than any other, and that
is toe provisions she has made for the
p r, unfortunate au 1 insane. Fifiy
years ago, ly Act of Asseiuhy, this
coiiniy w:is const it uted and fonned into
a scperate I'.ior Distriet.
The tliotisji'iiis of p.-r-ions that l'.ave
Im-ii cared for. and the thousands of
(lillars of charity she has disjieiiwd, as
well as the houii-s she has relieved, tiie
orphan children she has cared for, the
di'if, dumhand h'ind she hasih:eatcd,
an i hist if all, the m.sst pitui'le of alt,
those who have livll liereft of tiieir
n-.i.soii, who have Uvii maintained and
treated in hospitals, many of whom
were n-tored, is a monument to our
glory more endurimr than granite or
marl ile, and lasting us time.
Twice the Supreme Court has ren
dered formal decision- that r iiu.-y!va-nia
isa Christian Commonwealth; hut
important and authorative as are such
judicial utterances, far more ca.iviu.'
ing are the splendid evidences of Chris
tian spirit seen in Pennsylvania's ins
ide provisions for the p:or and unfortu
nate in life. And when this work is
considered in its character, its spirit,
its magnitude and its far-reaching re
sults, we may well ask, "Is not this,
after, all, the chief, the crowning glory
of our Common wealth." We know
that the soldier and the enthusiastic
student of iniiitary history will feel
pride in the fact, that when ia the
lark days of the Uehellion, the fearful
tide of war rolled Northward, it hroke
in fury against the hills of I Jettyslmrg,
only to recoil in defeat and shame. He
will remind us that on the liiemorahlo
and hloo.lv field, with a son of Pennsyl
vania in command, when one of Som
erset County's hrave sons fell in the
thickest of the conflict, was fought one
of the most momentous tialllcof history
as the pivotal I Kit tie of that long and
tcrrililc struggle, on whose issue h.-ing
tiie fate of this gn-at republic; and in
which struggle, U-yond the interests of
a single nation, the great cause of hu
man liberty and high concern.
It seems glory enough for one state
that such an achievement was accom
plishcd within her Imrdcrs, hut we re
memliiT that the very name of our Com
mon wealth points us hack toil's great
hearted and noble founder, William
Petin, wlioseju.st and humane jxiliey
toward the aWiginal inhabitant,
whom he found in ptissession of the for
ests and valleys, was designed to avert
war, and by miy and every means to
,
I compass peace.
" It is in accord with the spirit urge
s' tiius, of that magnanimous and hemic j
j soul, the jH-aceful and TK'aix'-I ivillg !
1
I'.-tiu, who 111 t.ie morning twilight of,
3 cur history, laid the foundation of this 1
I
;:rcut Key .-tone Slate, that w e a.-liirc to
the victoria of peace rather than tho.-e
of war.
Splendid has lavn our military
achievement.! (Jreat our industrial
and commercial developments and our
educational enterprises, with their U
nifieciit (ilccts upon social and domes
tie life ! P.ut higher than all these,
and approaching- more truly the spirit
of her preat founder, interpreting more
fait hfully the teachings of the divine
Master and fulfilling more nearly the
nohle works of charity and christian
liencvolciice, chief among these areour
place, for the curcof the ir ami in
sane. Therifore, when we cometo eilehr.ite
the centennial of our county, let us n
joice together that one of our wise and
human acts ia early years was to pro
vide for our jxor.
Nothing has transpired at the Home
out of the ordinary routine. The Home
was not visited hy any se rious accident,
neither was It visited hy any e-onta-gious
disease. During the year new
kith tuls improved water clcts with
t-.ild and hot water, were placed in the
main l.uiMing; which was an improve
ment long hopeil for and hadiy nvded,
ti'.d is quite a comfort to the agi-d and
ii:t:rm.
The lrjil'lings ai' in good repair and
condition. During the year the old
hting rooms for the men, attached to
the end of (he White ll mse, will be
torn down and replaced with larger arid
more moderate ones: the one now in ue

During the year there were a great

Tile otVbi' of Director of the I'oor is
one of the most r-. spmisiMe of any ia
the ('-..anty, and simi.ld ln an ciino
hiitig iiie. They have not only the
care and wise expenditure ofn;o;iey,
hut the care of sati'ering huinanily as
weil. Their's is a duty of iove, and he
who h:ss not that virtue to a ent-.t ex
tent dwelling in his soul cannot satis-
ractorny lis-,:irge the laties i:i-;im-U-ut
upon him. They are dutie- t'nat
should call forili the lpii'lest prompt
in 2 of the heart. Much depends upon
the sehi-tiou of a good steward and
i.iatroii, in order t sn-ure order a;:.l
discipline sis well as the good mae.agt-m-.-nt
of the Dome.
We desire to express our regret in

We, the Directors holding over, do
sire to say that the thanks ofthepuli

tiring Director, for the conscientious
manner in which he discharged the
da tii-s of iiis o!l;eo. Much credit is
due to him for the improvement of the
farm and productiveness of same.
We regret his leaving the County.
hut hojie he may have the confiileinv
and esteem of the peoplo of far away

TIIE QUICKSAND.
Etouer had been a Tosan ranger and
could hold his own extremely well in
that rou;,'h frontier ccnutry. He had
carried off a pretty Spanish wifo from
tho Cliihnahua region years before, laid
brought lur to tho roeiy Californiau
cojist and had purchased a (settler's claim
and an old adol o houso built by a fcpan
i-sh hidalgo half a century ago.
Here he farmed, raised cattle on tho
unused government land's nad kept a
ort of rude hotel, fur mvcral Mountain
trails joined at that point the broad
highway which lid from the county
seat, 20 miles Fouth, to tho northirn
Settlement.) in tho pineries. He had Cvo
daughti rs, too, tho youn-rest, Theresa,
known as Tessa, a girl cf 17. Thai ad.l
el to tho attraction, and almost every
night the dark eyed, half Spanish girls
sang and danced, an 1 eld Sfom r man
aged to hear all tho news that was
afloat, and somehow most of tho looso
coin of tho region ultimately found its
way into Lis pockets. Ho was a deep
one, that samo Ephraim Stouer, quiet,
Ely and patient, secret iu his methods
and deadly iu his blow.
Stoner's wife and his four elder
daughters were uneducated and iu
complete Milijwtion to his will, but
Tessa had moro brains aud energy than
all tho others put together and quito as
much beauty, so that tho old Texan
ranger took a certain pride iu her and
had even allowed her to attend a dis
tant (school f.r two years.
This midnight, when, as I have paid,
tho Btf.ry begins, a person of a prying
di.-poMtioii might hnvo discovered sev
eral interesting performances in progress
around tho Stonrr adobe. On tho north
bide of tho house, qr.ito in tho shadow,
Tessa was leaning from her window,
conversing ia low tones with a blond,
fair haired and sturdy young man ou
hoisehaek.
"Tom, yon (! in.fc know my father.
Ho is not tho careless, warm hearted
man yon eupiKise. 1 iuu-t admim Lia
ability, but that is all. I warn yon,
Tom, there never was a moro dangerous
man. He may lo whero ho hears every
word you say, but if he is ho will not
speak to you or to mo about it, but if
ho knew that you cared for mo ho would
be your enemy. IIo has other plxus for
me. Ho wants mo to marry for money. "
Tom Warren had once boon tho school
teat her in tho mountain district, miht)
away, where Tcs.sa had been ono of bis
pupils. Thmwu upon his own resources
from his childhood, ho had developed a
strong, earnest character and was al
ready so popular in the county that ho
had ja.it been elected sheriff, although
tho youngest man on the ticket
While Tessa and her lover were talk
ing a scei:e cf a far different nature was
being enacted 0:1 the SL-utii side of tho
old adobe, which overlooked a diep ra
vine and a can.rt of fivo cr six men iu
a field below. For several years these 1
! men had spent thiir summers there, os
tensibly hunting, fishing and exploring
the country with tiieir dogs and guns.
Every erne knew them, and most persoi:
liked them. Tessa did not.
Stoner, though it was midnight, sat
in the moonlight on au old rawhide
chair, outside the door, snu.kii.g his
pipo and mniitating a tocgh, siuewy,
grizzled night owl of a man.
"That inft rnal knuckle head at the
camp ought to have reported beforo
now," ho thought to himself as ho
smokeiL
A man caino out of tho brush and
spoke deferentially:
"C.?ptn, good evenui!"
"You'ro late."
"Dick was shot"
"Well:"
"Ju.-t as the driver throwed of? tho
box. Shot by a passenger in tho neck
and slionlder.
"Ho mustn't stay hero to get us into
trouble. Take a boat and carry hiia to
tho point and h ave him in the cave
there."
"Yes, capt'n."
"How much was aboard?"
"About $2,000 fur the Josephine ruin
exs."
"Send it over the cliff before morn
ing, and I'll divide it up soon, but you
bo extra carefuL That new sheriff is a
smart one.
"All right, capt'n," and the man
went back to the camp.
A moment later, jut-t as Stoner was
going back n:to tho house, there was
tho slow thud of a horse's hoofs, mid
Tom Warren, the young sheriff, rod
down the trail, around the corner tf th'
old adobe building into tho mafn coun
ty road that lay to tho west- Ho had at
hist yielded to Tessa's entreaties to "go.
go, this minute, Tom.
Impassible as Stoner was, ho felt a
little) startled by the sight
"YA-hore in the devil did you como
from, sheriff? Anything up in this part
of tno country :
"Oh, no, not a particle. I'vo bocu
visiting my old school iu tho mountains
and to. k tho short trail liou.v down
Cavucos.
This was plausiblo enough, for there
was a blind trail that entered tho can
yon just east of the angle of tho house.
Stom r felt a little relieved.
"Won't you put up and stay with us
all night?"
"Xo, Mr. Stoner, I must go down to
Jicstral to sec friends there. It's only aa
hour's lide. "
"That settles it," thought Stoner.
Plenty of stout fellows to uso as sher
iff's deputies there. Ho has probably
stumbled on traces and is coins for
help." no sat and smoked and slipped
bis band back under bts coat. "Easy
Shoot tho fellow," ho said to himself.
Well, goodby, Stoner," said Warren
suddenly. "I suppose the beach road is
as good as ever?"
"Perfe-ctly safe, only when you cross
Toro creek keep ou the sand bar. It's as
bard as iron. I cros-ied there todar. "
"Thank you. Adios!"
Simple, smiling speech, these words
of Stoner's, and yet they were intended
to send arren to his death more surely
and safely than by bullet of pistol or
pellet of secret poison.
Stoner took an extra swig cf brandy
and went to his rest Warren rode down
the rugged hill to the bottom of the ra
vine, then turned seaward, and at last
tho wide gulch cpeued broadly to the
shore cf the Pacific.
The cliffs were from 50 to 300 feet
high and full of waveworu caves. War
ren drew rein on tho beach, and for
fully teu minutes watched tho ocean
sway and rise. His thoughts throblied
with dreams of Tessa. Ho wonld take
her away from her narrow and hurtful
surroundings. Ho would lift her into
happier and better circumstances. He
would force Stomr's consent marry her
and make her happy.
He rode rapidly south, aud ia half an
bour the mouth of tho Toro appeared,
in the midst of sand dunes, breakers
rolling in and tho steady river flowing
out Here was the long sand bar, ten feet
wide and stretching across hardly an
Inch higher than tho watery surface.
Y" arren was beginning to have some
suspicious of Stouer, but not such as to
lead him to doubt the simple directions
ho had received. The sand bar looked
safe, but within a few days the sea. as
Stouer knew, bad swept it mightily,
torn out tho lomr compacted bar said
placed iustcad a quivering mass of
r I
quicksand, so treacherous that not e-ven
a light footed rabbit could cross with
out being swallowed up Slid draeLted
bexlily down. Warren rodo 6vvift!y
forward. IIo had crossed sand bars huii-
r
.' ' " 1
rii'nn
(lredsef times. Some horses would have
been wiser, but tho animal ho roda bad
been bre.l ia tho valhy.
The approach to the b;r was hard for
a few reds as ho galloped on. Suddenly,
in ono m-nrtbreakiug, breathless de
scout, noiseless, but unnttcnibly dread
ful, Tom Warren's horse went down,
down, aud tho soft, slimy sand came up
to bis inane. He shrieked out that
ghastly cry ef appeal and agony that a
de-sperate, dying horso will sometinics
Otter.
Tom knew tho peril. Ho had thrown
bis feet from tho stirrups and drawn
theta up at tho first downward throb,
but tho sand began to grasp him
Ho threw iVinself flat on his breast and
tore bflbself loose from the p.or animal,
over whose littek tho mingled sand aad
water wero running, as it rolled from
sidotosido ia ineffectual strueghs to
escaixv
Tom spread himse lf ontover as much
surface as possihle, but slowly, resist
le.ssly, tl.o mighty force drew hiia down
ward. Tho hard beach wa.4 only f- n fe-t
distant, but practically the c'i a ia w.is
iiupassal.'hv. He felt the horso sin!: out
of sight. Tho sand gripped his own kirn s
aud arms, his thighs aad shonldi rs.
Two inches more, and the end by suffo
cation was inevitable. Up to this time
ho bad not shouted Only his horse's
wild death scream had told of the trag
edy. Vi'hat was tho use? Who would bo
passing along that lonely road? Then ho
thought oj Tessa and of life. Ild raised
his voice in a clear, strong shout for
help, again and again repeated.
Far off along the d- ep rnviu.) caino a
cry in response and a horse's hurrying
fee t, and hc-rc awoke in his heart, u ho
margin eif life was rive minuti'S n w
not longer. Faster, fat ter, oil, fearless
rider I
"Tom, where are yon?"
"Here, Tessa. IXm't come too near."
But tho mountain girl knew tha dan
ger. Creeping down stairs f.r a drink cf
water, sho'had heard her father's words
to Warren, had thrown a shawl about
her shoulders and run to tho piisture.
Then she canght her pot hor.-o, sprang
upon Lis unsaddled back, seized a riata
as she passed the stable and galloped
at the utmost spen-d down tho ravine,
hoping against hope, for many minute s
had necessarily elapsed since Warren
started.
She sprang to tho ground and tos:-.ed
tho rawhide ropo to tho one arm bo he ld
abovo the saud. She folded her shawl
and put it ever Ik r horse's shoulders and
tied the riata around like aoo'.lar. Then
6he led him slowly away from tho quick
sands, and Warren thought bis arm
would break, but slowly, reluctantly,
painfully, the sand gave up its prey.
'lour father told mo to take this
road, Tessa," said tho young sheriff.
"Yes I know that, and I heard one
of the men t il him today that the bar
was Ewcpt out
There was a long sileuco between
them.
"Tessa, go with me to Saa Luis,"
said Warren, "and let us be married."
And Tessa went.
Old Stoner heard the news afewdavs
later. Within an hour he had "retired
from business." The camp was Ir. k- n
up, tho banters disappeared, niy- t.-rious
lights flashtdat intervals all night from i
the points of the cliff, and the next day
old Stom r himself (iisappe-arid, leaving
bis family, tho ranch and the live stiv. k.
