Improvements at the Court Horns and Jail. Friday the County Commissioners awarded the contract for heating the Court House and Jail with hot water and supplying lth buildings with a sjeci tied numlK-r of water closets, to Mr. P. A. Schcli. of tfiis pla-e, his bid being: in the ncightxirhood of six hundred dollars lower than that of his nearest oomjM-litor. the Messrs Waters, of Johnstown. Mr. Scheil will Itegin upon the work at once and hopes to have tiie Court House piped and ready to heat by Septemler term of oe.irt. When the c unity j.iil was orc-ted it was equipped with tha "Suiea l System" of beating and ventilating, but a trial of that system has fully demonstrated that it is not the thing for buildings of this character, at least the plant in the jail h is never given satisfaction and has I teen repeatedly condemned by the several gran ! juries inspecting it. The apparat us put in by the Sun-ad people will be. torn out and the public closet alwndoned. The contract with Mr. Scbell calls for closets in all of the cells in the jail aud for a public c!osi-t in the Court II .misc. Tue closets will be drained into a large cemented vault to lo located on the north side of th9 Court House lot. It is likely that it will leeome neces.sary to drain the vault into Cox's creek, unless Somerset within the next year or two secures a system of sewerage. The heating and plumbing contract is with one exception the largest ever made in this county and is a flattering testimo nial to the energy and business capacity of Mr. SchelL Grangers Stod.lird, the well known local contractors were Monday afternoon awarded the contract for erecting a new addition to the residence portion of the county jaiL Their bid was $!s), some J-iO less than the next lowest bid.

Saturday night rounded up Ge rge W. Savior's first week as poli.-e oflb-er of this place. The occasion was market! by a drunken row on Main street, in which tin p lii-c:iiin was hammerc 1 over the hea l with a beer glass in tho hands of a y.iuug Pittslmrgc-r w'a hi I previously d evlared that "no ciuntry jay policeman em run me in." The tolicciiian not ouly arresled the Pitts burger, but the borough authorities have preferred charges agaiust him for resisting an ofHicer and il P. pro! ablethatho will remain in tha ounty jail until the case has boen disposed of by the court. Harry Garman is the name given by the prisoner. He had been stopping at Walter's "We.t End Hotel" for several days ami on Saturday night with several companions proceeded to load up with whisky and leer. Garman concealed a beer glass in his coat pocket while drinking at one of the liars and afterwards announced his intention of doing up policeman Saylor. When he and his companions became boisterous on Main street the polioein in requested them to go to their home and when they declined to do so he took hold of one of them. The moment he did so Garman struck him over the head with tho lieer glass cutting a deep gash in the officer's f-rowu. The man Saylor had arre-stcd at tempted to break away and when ho was rapped over the head with the police man's mace Garman dealt the officer an other savage blow with the beer glass. Ix-tting go of his man Saylor grabbed Garman when a furious tassel ensued, resulting iu the former falling on top of his man. Saylor had lost his mace iu the tussel and with the blood streaming from the two wounds in his head was barely able to hold tho struggling young Pitts burger, who still clutched the beer glass in his hand and was endeavoring to strike him with it. Several gentlemen 'who w itnessed the row rushed to the police man's assisten? and smveoded in break the prisoner's grip on the lcer glass and lodging him in the Sjorough lock-up. Garman was given a hearing Sunday morning when he was committed to juil. Parlor Concert Satarday Night.

A very curious story is related by the Greensburg Tribune of the actions of Hungarians over the body of a dead liaby at lied Top, as told by Freeman Kigler, driver for the Mount Pleasant Brewing company. The brewing company re ceived an order for three kegs of t-r from a Hungarian who is employed by the Southwest Coiinellsville Coke Com pany at Bed Top. When Kigler arrived at the Hungarian shanty with the lss r he was invited into the kitchen, w here the remains of a small child were lying ou a table. The body was decorated with fancy picture cards taken from cigarette pack ages. The kegs of .beer were brought into the room ajid were tapped, but in stead of drinking it, the foreigners pro ceeded to bathe the dead body of the child with the lieverage, prepar atory, as they explained, to bury ing it. The child had tiecn dead for three da vs. An undertaker's servii-es were not required. In the evening the foreigners conveyed the rude box containing the remains of the dead baby to the burial plax' in a wood close by. Teachers Elected. JKXNKK TOWNSHIP.

Beppert in tht case of the Government against M. H. Walker, of Jen tiers I'-Owushiy, on a charge of sending oliscene literature through the mails From the testimony given it ap pears that Walker some time this sum mer sent letters through the mails to a uiau in Iowa, defiling the character of a woman with whom the Iowa man bad been living. The woman at one time lived in Somerset county and Walker paid ber attention, and when he heard of her conduct in Iowa he became jealous The letters are very rile. The defendant claims be did not know it was a violation of the postal laws to send such matter through the mails, and put iu thi plea that the Government had no right to in terfere with private matter. He was held under $o00 bond for apperance at the October term of district court in Pitts burg. Her Features.

OLD ST02T. Mrs. "Pat" Bran Attempts to Serivo a Fire With Petrolena and is Frightfully Barued. Mrs "Pat" Ryan was frightfully. If not fatally, burned at her home near Kant ner's station, about six o'clock Monday morning. Mrs Ryau arose at an early hour and set a!ut getting hreakfa.st for her husband aud family of six small children. She was anxious to attend the funeral of a neighbor Mrs. Yoder which took pla-e at tea o'cl.M-k that morning and in order to to expedite mat ters she attempted to hurry up the tiro in the kitchen stove by pourings lot of kcro aine onto it from an oil can which she held in her right baud. The moment tbe stream of oil reached the coals it ignited and leaping up to the can exploded that vessel with a loud report, the burning oil flying in all directions Mrs Ryan was covered with the burning fluid from her waist to her feet, while her face and hands did not escape. Tho report of the explo sion and the frantic screams of the unfort unate viutim caused Mr. Ryan to spring from his bed and bound down the stairs at a single leap. He struggled to catch hold of his wife, but before he could do so she had thrown open the kitchen dor and run out into the yard. Here her husband overtook her and throwing her to tho ground rolled ber over and over in the tall grass until the flames were smothered. When Ir. Ed. M. Kimmel visited tho miserable woman an hour after the accident oecu red he found that she had been burned to a blister every pla-e the oil bad come iu contact with her laxly. The flesh from her waist to her feet was literally cooked, w hile ber arms and taee had been burned until the skin cracked. The attending physician gives but little hope for the victim's re covery. Her husband, "Pat" Ryan, is a well-known stone mason who has been working in and around Somerset for the past five or six years Protection Against Lightning. Amir ling to a res'iit article by Ir. Iodge in the Euginrrruitj Jf.ij.jci'wc, light ning is not so easy to wan! off by rods, as many people imagine. He says that it is an "oscillatory discharge of enor mous energy," which no copper rod, however thick and long, can properly dispose of harmlessly. It can Iks experi mentally shown that when a lightning discharge takes place, even down such a rod as this sparks may fly from it to all conductors near, capable of setting tire to any explosive compound or gas leak which they may chance to encounter. Ho therefore recommends for the pro tection of ordinary buildings the placing of a wire along all the gables, ami down all the corners, with perhaps a few in be tween along any prominent features, so as to inclose the building in a sort of wire network: any metal serves equally well for the conductor, con.luctively lieing un imHrtant in comparison with durability; siints or projections to the sky are useful to take the violence of the direct flash at its Miint of incidence in a cheap and conspicuous manner, aud earth connec tions are desirable to save the foundation, the soil, and the pipes therein from being damaged. A City of Negroes. The City of Eatonville, in Florida, is composed of only M or otio people, but it is growing. Its peculiarity is that only negroes live there, w hile a nearby settlement called M ait land is comisxeil exclusively of whites This arrange ment set-ins to lie mutually satisfactory. Eatonville is the lalxir eiiijsiriuiii for all the surrounding region. When not em ployed by thers the Eatonville negroes work for themselves Each house has a lot of one-half acre, whicli, after the house is built, is planted w ith orange trees or with garden vegetables Xo oIice are needed there, and the people all seem to be making money. Thir vegetable?! meet a ready sale all - through tbe section, whi-re there is a large negro population. The negroes all know Eatonville as a place w here the colored people own every thing, and they give its products their prelerence. A largo school for colored children at Jacksonville has recently been removed to Eatonville. As this school edu-uti-s' children, it will double the population of the city and will add greatly to iLs prusK-rity. An Katouville art school was established this winter, at which 50 colored students took lessons in drawing ami painting. Snow in August. A Mount Washington correspondent writes : Two young men of Atlanta, Ga., Ralph Barnstead and IL F. Hanich, had a fearful experience coming to Mount Washington one da "a t week. They le t the Crawford House a!out 4 o'chx-k in the afternoon and started to walk up the Crawford bridle path to tho summit. The weather was pleasant when they started, but a storm overtook them when below the southern peaks of the Presi dential Range. They continued their journey, but when they reached Mount Monroe, Mr. Barnstead was so exhaust ed he could not proceed further. His companion was obliged to leave him, ami he proceed on his journey with all the speed his exhausted condition would al low to get help for his friend. Hesnc eeeded ill reaching the summit, but in a state of utter exhaustion. A searching party was immediately formed, and with laiitcrs hastened down tho pathway. After great difficulty in descending the rough, uneven path, they found a straw hat which Mr. Banich had left purposely in the path, near where his friend was. After a few culls the rescuers succeeded iu getting a faint response. When dis covered, Mr. Barnstead was sitting ou a lxiwlder alxmt a quarter of a mile this side of Lake of the Clouds too weak to walk and scarcely able to talk. He was brought to the summit and was well cared lor. If Mr. Barnstead had not re ceived assistance he would prolably have perished, as the temperature went down to freezing point during the night. Hew Bridge at Paint Creek. The County Commissioners have order ed an iron bridge to be erected across the Stonycreek River at Paint Creek, a little over seven miles south of Johnstown, along the Baltimore A Ohio Railroad. The contract for the abutments has been awarded to Mr. A. Reighart, of Johnstown, whose bid was a fl.OOu. He will begiu work at once. The bridge, which will le a hun.lre 1-foot span, will also cost ?1,0ii0. It is !eiug made by the Phoenixville Bridge Company. After the bridge is completed the dis tance Is-twecn Davklsville and Scalp Level w ill be lessened about four or live miles Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Moses Ysler, of Conemaugh Township, for the manner in which lie worked to secure the improvement. A Bog's Deadly Bite. A genuine case of hydrophobia with fatal result is reported from Waynesburg. Ijist May Perry Amnions was bitten by bis own dog. Wednesday he was taken suddenly ill, went into spasms and died In great agony this morning. Several doctors in attendance pronounc ed ii acase of hydroph bia. Much ex citement prevails as it is reported that the animal has bitten several people. Mr. Amnions was thirty-five years old and leaves a wife and two little daughters The Elmira, X. Y., TMily Star knows a good thing when it sees it. It says : Chas Lee has a knack of giving the best show that comes to Elmira. His yearly visits here have made him popular aud he always does a land-office business He is a good fellow, has the only big 2V cent show on earth, and over in Bradford cjunty where bo lives tbe people are bound to run him for Congress. But the genial Charles insists that he wouldn't trade his circus for the whole Senate and House of Representative, because "he has no use for dead heads." At Somerset, Tuesday, August 30. Ad mission only cents. Hlghe&t of all in Leavening A Singular Dua?tearance. The case of M rs. Annie, M. Gardiner, a Nebraska delegate to tho Christian Endeavor convention, recently held in Boston, has some very siugi.lar and un usual features alxmt it. She lived with ber huslmnd and children in apparent contentment, and so far as the public is aware there was nothing to mar her happiness Her husband is in good circumstances and lxith wero devoted church workers. It would seem, how ever, from the subsequent proceedings that after she left home to attend tho convention she never intended to return. After arriving there she never used her real name. A letter reached ber husband setting forth that she was dying, and this was quickly followed by another, written over the signature of M. A. Brown, telling of Mrs. Gardiner's death and burial. Both letters appear to have lieen false, and intended to deceive. It was at first supposed that the woman had committed suicide in a moment of aberration. In vestigation proves that she did not stop at Boston, but went to Cambridge, and took an assumed name. While there she gavo her valise to the housekeeper, with instructions to burn it, she having procur ed a small trunk in its plie-e. This valise was not burned, and it furnishes a clue to her disappearance, being easily identified by the huslmnd. From this point she went to a Connecticut town. She sold ber return ticket to Nebraska, and then procured the writing of the letter de scribing her death aud burial. The natural canclu.-ions would be that there was a man in the case. But there plears not to lie any man iu the case. There was method in ber every move ment, a method iiti-oiisistctit with in sanity; unless her case is to lie considered a new type. For some reason she bail determined to i-ut herself ofT from ber family forever, ber announcement of her death and burial being susceptible of no other interpretation. To what cause can her conduct lie assigned? It may lx- said that there is something in her domestic life tinrevealed; some skeleton in the closet of which friends and neighbors were totally ignorant. She was a mem ber of a church organization, and so prominent a memls-r that she was select ed to represent it in a most imjxwiiig con ference more than a thousand miles distant from her home. She departs in love am! duty, and on arriving at her distillation disapttears suddenly, leaving no explanation. Finally she apcars to have been traced out and is found in a suburb of Norwich, Conn., doing duty as a servant girl. There she for a long time denied her identity, but finally sticcumlMsland acknowledged she is Mrs Gardiner, but at the last ai--coiuit declines to return to her family. She wns formerly a school te; cher and expresses a desire to resume her former vocation. The case is a most remarkable one ami will le an interesting one for the ctudent of mental ailnit nts. la the Coils of a Snake. Two young medical students, Charles Elsworth and Frederick Kearn, of G rcensbn rg, who returned Thursday from a brief stay on the mountains relate a thrilling adv future they had at a oiiit near the "White R.x k" on the Alleghen ies. After traveling over the mountains the greater part of the day on Tuesday, they sought a moss covered rs-k to rest. Kearn soon fell asleep. Elsworth sat si lently gazing on the leauty of the ra vine Isdow. Presently he was startled by a i-ry of distress from his companion, aud horrified to see a large blacksuake winding itself aliout the Issly of Kearn. The snake had succeeded in making three coils about his Iwidy and was evi dently squeezing the life out of the un fortunate man. Elsworth hurried to Keam's assistance, but was isjwerlcss to help him. The monster reptile tinned its fangs in the direction of Elsworth seeiiiiiiglyasawarningn.it to interfere. Kearn, by a mighty effort, succeeded in gaining his feet, but every effort to seize the snake was met by the darting of the bead in a threatening manner. The coils of the snake were slowly tightening. The death palor of Kearn told of his suf fering and fright. Suddenly the head of the monster darted into midair, its fork ed tongue darting backward and forward, aud its eyes set upon the fa-e of what seemed pliin now an easy v i.-tiin. Kearn graubed the snake by tho neck, and then Elsworth seized the reptile al-out the neck with liolh hands Kearn then sank unconscious upon the rock, but Elsworth was equal to the occasion. Bearing down upon the head he placed it upon the rx-k and there with a penknife severed its head. The coil of the snake slowly loos ened from the body of the unconscious Kearn. In the course of an hour, with the aid of a little brandy, he was enabled to walk to a farm house at the Imse of the mountains The snake was one ot the largest ever seen in the mountain region. It measured 11 feet and 5 inches and bad an enormous head. Justice Jackson Bead. Howell E. Jackson, associate justice of the I'nited Slates Supreme osirt, died Thursday at his home at Westmead farm, near Nashville. Tennessee. He had lieen in failing health for-sever.il years, but it has been only iu the last nine mouths that the progress of the disease ltcgan to cause his family uneasiness. ILst year he went on a lengthy trip to the far West in search of health. Later he went to Thomasville, Ga., where it was IioihsI the mild and bracing climate would re store his vigorous constitution. The trip did him little good, and after a time he was brought home. Judge Jackson did not take to his bed until eight days a no. Since that time his family and friends realized that the end was near, and his death was not un expected. EXCUBSI05 TO ATLANTIC CITY. Last of the Seasoa via B. A 0.
