has created much surprise in the neigh

SOMERSET WINS.
The Lutheran Collejiats Institute
Will be Erected Here.
THE C0JIKnTEF3 DECISION CEEETED
WITH GEEAT ENTHUSIASM.
As forecast iu tln'se columns two weeks
ago the committee of live ministers, ap
pointed by the Allegheny Synod of the
Lutheran Church, to select a location for
building a Collegiate Institute, have
chosen Somerset.
The action of the committee became
known upon the streets at S:3i o'clock
Monday night, and immediately the
the wildest excitement ensued. The
Court House, church and school bells
were rung, balloons were sent up, fire
works were shot off, a bonfire was
built, and crowds of young men and
Irfiys paraded the streets cheering and
Milling at the top of their voicos. Mean
while tbe committee were still iu session
in the lecture room in the Lutheran
Church.
It is not known, nor will it lie known
for Mime time, just where the Institute
building will be erected. As announced
last week the l.s-al committee have taken
options on a number of available loca
tions, but if they have made a definite
ftelection they are jealously keeping it
from the public. However, the people
of Somerset arc content, knowing that
the Institute will lie erected in their
mhlst and that they will enjoy all of the
benefits to be derived therefrom.
The committee having the location of
the Institute in charge is composed of
Rev. Bergstresser, of Rockwood; Rev.
Johnston, of Salisbury; Rev. Young, of
Meyersdale; Rev. Taylor, of Berlin, and
Kev. llaikey, of Somerset. This com
mittee met at Meyersdale on August Jih,
when the merits of the three towns
Berlin, Meyersdale and Somerset con
testing for the Institute, were presented
by lis-al committees. After the advanta
ge of the diiicreiit'towns had been urg
ed th'? c.):nriiittee wisely c included to
personally inspect the sites otb'red Is-fore
announcing their decision, at Somerset,
on Monday.
The ministerial committee were met
by a litcsil committee of representative
citizens at 1:'W o'clock Monday afternoon.
Carriages were in attendance and both
committees drove to the different sites on
which options had lieeu taken. Among
other sites viewed were the following:
Two on the Koontz farm east of town;
the Hay tract ; ground immediately north
of the Lutheran cemetery; Harrison iierk
ey's plantation, and Mrs. E. A.Tayinan's
lots iu the Isirough limits, an I a tract of
land lying Ixrtweeu Holbrook's and
George Tayman's residence, the property
of Mr. Tayman. The memliers of the
committee all expressed themselves as
lieing delighted with at least three of the
sites inspected, after which they return
ed to the Lutheran Church and went into
executive session. Action was deferred
until after supper, ami at 7 o'clock the
committee again met iu executive session.
The merits and adranuiges of the differ
ent towns were thoroughly canvassed,
when at o'el.s.'k. a vote was taken.
The first ballot resulted in three votes
ls'ing cast in favor of Somerset, and one
each for Berlin and Mey.r-dale. The
niemlters of the committee voti..g for
Somerset were Rev. Berestresser, John
ston and Harkey, Kev. Young voted for
Meyersdale. and Kcr. Taylor for Berlin.
Kev. Young was in the chair, and Kev.
Taylor immediately moved that the vote
iu favor of Somerset le made unanimous,
hieh was done.
W. H. Kuppel, Esq., who has taken an
a-tive part i:i securing the scIhhiI for
Somerset, appeared liefore the committee.
While he did not seek to make an argu
ment iu favor of any one of the three
towns asking for the school he said that
the town ws-uring it would be expected
to contribute not less than from ?15,lM) to
t Jif.O and the Allegheny Synod, of the
Lutheran Church would make a united
effort to raise a like amount for the la-ue-tit
of the school.
The people of Somerset, with commend
able generosity, contriltutcd 12,iK iu
forty-eight hours and judging from the
enthusiasm manifested by the towns
people when it IxH-aine known that the
school is to lie hs-ated here, we ltelieve
that this amount can be increased $.",on
withaut effort.

Street Improvement!.
Street Commissioner H. . Cunning
ham is to lie commended for the system
atic work he has done on the streets of
the town during the season. A numlier
of the most offensive gutters have been
paved and they are no longer disease
breeding pools, but instead, the filth de
Itosited in them is carried beyond the
limits ttf Uiroiigh, and in a majority of
cases is conducted into Cox's creek. In
the atiscnce of sewers it would lie diliicult
to suggest an improvement on the work
accomplished by the Street Commission
er and he should lte encouraged iu his
work by the members of the Town Coun
cil until all of the gutters in U wn have
been graded and paved.

Pino Hill Picnic
Eoitor Herald:
The J. O. U. A. M. of Pine Hill deserve
great commendation fir their efforts in
making their picnic on Saturday Aug.
17th, an enjoyable affair for all wlto at
tended. The exercises of the day were
congenial 1 1 all. The parade from the
church to the grove was headed by the
Berkley Cornet Band, which rendered
the choicest of music. The exercises in
the grove were opened with song, follow
ed by prayer. The address of weli-ome
was delivered by W. II. F'ritz, Jr. It was
one of a discreet nature, containing good
suggestions which showed marked ability
on his part as a speaker. Next was an
address by Rev. Spangler, ofShanksville,
who svike principally of the achieve
ments of the order, and was listened to
with intense interest. His countenance
plainly showed his sincerity in the work.
His thoughts were delilterate, and in
spired with true patriotism. Last, but
not least, on the floor, was our genial
Prothonotary F'rank P. Say lor, of Somer
set, who, after losing himself several
times along the by-ways, succeeded in
reaching the grove in time for refresh
ments, of which he partook freely. At
2:-'K o'clock he stepped Itefore the canopy
and treated the large crowd to an excel
lent siteecb, long to lie remembered by
those who heard it. He not only makes
himself agreeable in his office, but comes
out and meets all with a good old Roman
handshake.
May the good work of the Order pros
per and Pine Hill picnic become an an
nual affair.
A Racing Train Speeds 75 Miles am Hoar
Parliment Alarmed.
The Ixtndon Northwestern Railway
Company's new fast train ltetween Ivm
dou and Atierdeen, which left Ixtndon
at 8 o'clock Thursday evening, arrived at
Alterdeen at 4::ti o'clock Friday morning.
Part of the journey of . miles was cover
ed at the rale of 75 miles per hour. This
Itcats he performance of the day Is'fore,
when the same run was made in 'St min
utes longer.
Ifthe figures are correct as given in
connection with England's latest fast runs
on the Ixiidou & Northwestern Railway,
the triit of that line's fast train to-day
54:) milis in 5Pi minutes is the fastest for
that distance not only in England but in
America, though it doesn't come any
where near equaling the American record
for shorter runs. The best long-distance
run in this country was made in 1SV1 over
the New York Central. Tbe gross time
of the trip from New York to East Buffa
lo t iij miles was 4-PU minutes, includ
ing all stops, while the actual running
time, exclusive of stops, was 4ii minutes
and 44 seconds for the 4-hJJ miles. Chang
es of engines were made at Albany and
Syracuse in the same manner as is done
with all through passenger trains on the
New York Central.
The F'mpire Slate express, which is the
fastest regular long-distance train in the
world, has travelled once at the rate of
112 miles an hour for five miles, and sev
eral times at the rate of 100 miles an hour
for the same distance. The development
of railroad speed has been remarkable in
the last ten years. Ten years ago a milo
a minute was next to lightning swiftness.
A mile a minute is made daily now on
several roads. The Empire Stale express
reels off mile after mile in from 45 to 5
seconds. On the Jersey Central trains
arc run frequently at the rate of b and !.)
miles an hour.
There is no stretch of540miks in this
country like the run from Euston station
to Aberdeen; therefore it is hard to make
comparison.
The trains run by the railroads of this
country are invariably heavier than those
of tbe English roads. Nome of the fastest
trains are more than 200,MI pounds
heavier. A very small additional weight
makes a very large difference in the av
erage speed ofa railroad train.

Fenn'i Old Homo in Sanger.
The old Penn House, at Upland, where
W illiam Penn lived when he landed at
Chester, was partly burned Wednesday
as a result of children building a fire in a
range. The stove-pite hole in the upper
floor was open and the flames set fire to a
quantity of clothing. The building, which
is built of wood and English brick, would
have soon burned to the ground had not
neighbors rushed to put out the flames.
The house is an old landmark and is
visited by iieople from great distances
who make sketches of the surroundings
and carry away pies?s of timls-r from the
building. It has been occupied by a fam
ily named Jordan f.r twenty years.

Divorced on a Train.
A divorce was granted on a train on
Monday to Mrs. M. L. Taylor, of La
Crosse, Wis. She formerly resided with
her husltand at Spring Valley, Minn.,
but when a disagreement arose which re
sulted in their estrangement she moved
to La Crosse, and is now the proprietor of
a millinery establishment. The two
were agreed to the separation, and an
understanding was arranged that her
husband was not to make a contest,
Mrs. Taylor went to spring Valley, but
just before the case was called the Judge
received an urgent stimm ins to repair to
an adjacent town. The train M as already
due to leave the depot, and Judge, plain
tiff, and counsel all Istarded the cars.
The evidence was heard cm route, and as
the train pulled into Wykoff, seven miles
out, the Court handed the woman her
decree of divorce.

Big Pins Trees.
A Wilmore correspondent writes the
Johnstown Trilmitt as follows:
In your paper of the 13th lnsL, appear
ed an item entitled "Cresson Township's
Big Pine," in which, after giving an ac
count of a pine tree one hundred and
twenty-feet high and twenty-seven
feet six inched in ciruiiuilerence,
lhe claim is made that it is the
largest tree iu Cambria country. This is
a mistake. The larg-d. tree so far as
known stands ou the land of Miss Sue
iallagher, in Allegheny townsnip, altout
two and one-half miles from Cresson, on
the mad leading from tliut place to I.oret
to. At this point, on the left, the traveler
going toward Ixtretto used to see a finger
Itoard on which was printed, "This Way
to the Big Trees," and he saw a drive
way through the wotds, following which
for aliout one hundred yards, about fifty
yards from the main road, he will come
to two mammoth pines, the larger of
which, ou Iteiug measured fifteen or
twenty years ago, was so large that a sur
veyor's chain (thirty-three feet) lacked
two links of girding it a couple of feet
from the ground.
This tree, however, does not carry its
thickness higher than about twenty feet,
where it branches out into about a dozen
prongs, the largest of which is about three
feet iu diameter and alstut 10.) feet high.
Tho tree is not round, but is oval in
shate, tho longer diameter being about
eleven feet and the shorter six feet.
Much of the rough outside bark of this
tree has been pulled off and carried away
by relic hunters. The other large tree is
about six feet in diameter. Ifthe Cres
son township tree carries its thickness
from the ground in the usual proportion,
it may lie the largest tree in the county
in cubical contents; but the Allegheny
township tree is the largest in girth at the
ground of any in the county, if not in tbe
state.
The Judicial Oath.
From the Vllitoiia Trihune.
Among other matters that should re
ceive increased attention from parents
and teachers is the judicial oath and the
exceeding sanctity which should hedge
it a Is nit. It seems that this is a thing
that has been semew hat neglected. The
oath is often lightly taken, and allega
tions are made which are contrary to
fads.
In the court room, iu the office of the
alderman or justice of the peace, wher
ever the oath is administered, the act
should lie surrou nde 1 by such forms as
will impress those who take it as well as
those who witness it with a sense of its
solemnity. It ought to lie no light thing
to take an oath. The frequency with
which an officer is compelled to admin
ister it should not be permitted to breed
an air of indifference or carelessness.
There will always lie persons whose
self-interest will lead them to testify to
that which is false. Either to secure
some gainful advantage or to escape pun
ishment for crime they will take a false
oath. But these will always be an in
significant minority. The chief danger
arises from carelessness or indifference.
Men often takes false oath to please a
friend; they do not give tho matter that
serious thought which its importance de
mands; they have never I teen properly
instruilcd as to the meaning of words
and the exal nature of an oath.
IK tu I til ess an improvejiieut would re
sult if those who have the instruction of
children in hand would do more to mag
nify the importance of the oath. Courts
should throw all possible solemnity alstut
the act; at the moment it is taken pro
found silence should reign in tho room
and the person who administers it
should show by his attitude and tone
that he also is deeply impressed by the
iinjiortancc of the act in which he is tak
ing part. At least these things would do
no harm.
An Hiitorio Oriit-Xill.
Near tho village of Manor, Westmore
land County, stands an old grist-mill,
the property of Samuel Walt hour, which
has quite a history. It was built in the
year 17S5 by Christopher Walthour, the
great-grandfather of the present owner.
It has always been in the possession of
the Walthour family.
When the mill was liuilt the country
was a vast luilderness. The Indian was
iu the land, the scream of the panther
and the howling of wolves were heard
by the lonely settlers who had built their
cabins in that part of the country.
A i tout two miles south of this mill,
near the (ireensburg Pike, on what is
now known as the Hays farm, a small
fort or bhs'k house had been built,
which was called ort Walthour. Into
this block house the scattered settlers
would gather when tho Indians became
troublesome. They would leave their
families under the protection of a few
guards while they went forth to git her
their little harvests or help each oilier
rear their log cabins. It was during this
time that the mill was built.
The men would leave the fort in the
morning, and while a part of them
worked on the foundation, or were dig
ging the race, pickets were kept on the
lookout for Indians. It was the only
mill in that part of the country, and
iieople used to bring their grain to it on
pack-horses from Iteyond the Allegheny
River. Deer could lie seen in numbers
on the surrounding hills.
The first miller employed was shot
dead one bright summer morning as he
was staudiug in the mill door by an In
dian, who was hiding in an adjacent
thicket.

Cost of Indiana's Contest.
There is a very strong proliability that
Judges lMy, Barker, and Reyburii, who
sat ou the Bench during the trial of the
recent judicial contest case in Indiana,
will have to go back and help to unravel
the knotty problem. This week the
attorneys for Judge White and those rep
resenting the contestants filed their bill
of costs with the Prothonotary. The
bills represent expenses aggregating J7,
000, in which are included only the wit
ness costs and mileage and fees and costs
due officers for serving subptenas.
Under the old law, which the Board of
County Commissioners think should ap
ply in this case, an officer is allowed
fifteen cents for every subpiena he serves
and six cents for every mile he travels
in serving it, whereas, the bills, as tiled,
are computed under au Act passed in
10, which allows fifty cents for serving
the paper and ten cents for mileage.
The Commissioner have therefore taken
an appeal front the amount of the bills,
and will ask that the court be convened
for a settlement of the question. The
entire cost of the contest, it is believed,
will figure up about f 10,000, ifthe bills
filed by counsels are allowed to stand.

A special dispatch from Johnstown to
the Pittsburg pspers, Monday, says: A
truly sensational case arising from the
loss of life occasioned b the Johnstown
flood was en. led at Eliensbnrg last night
when Judge Barker filed his decision in
the celebrated Fenn-Barnes case, by
which the plaintiff, Mrs. Anna Fenn
Barnes, endeavored to have the rents of
her husltand's property paid to her. The
decision was against Mrs. Barnes.
The present Mrs. Barnes, who is altout
40 years old, was formerly Mrs. Anna
F'enn, who lost her husband and all of
her six children in the Johnstown flood.
Her husband left her considerable pro
perty and money, in all about in.oOO and
she now owns one of the finest residence
blocks in this city.
The man whose love she won was
Charles Barnes, aged 77, who was also
'a flood sufferer, his wife having died a
short time before the flotsl. He owns
considerable real estate in the central
part ot the city and is probably worth
$150,000,
CLAIMS SHE DID TIIE PBOPOS1NO.
Altout a year ago the parties took a
trip to the Pittsburg F2xMtition, ami
while there they visited the ourt house,
it is claimed, where Mrs. Fenn, as spokes
woman, sKtn obtained a marriago Ih-ense,
and they were married by Rev. Bishop
Whitehead.
After a trip to Youngstown. they re
turned to this city, and a few days after,
Mr. Barnes iiccompaniitl his wile to the
office of M rs. Barnes' attorney, where he
deeded over to her all his property. She
then endeavored to compel the tenants to
pay the rent to her, but they refused, and
they were sustained by the court. ,
In the meantime Mr. Barnes' relatives
in Clarion county heard of the transfer
of the property, and had writs issued on
claims of long standing, and Mrs. Barnes
brought suit to have the parties restrain
ed from selling the property. A decision
in this case is expected to-morrow.
ALI.KUKS HE WAS IlltflKiKIl.
The evidence during the trial was very
sensational. In his testimony Mr. Barnes
stated that he never courted Mrs. Fenn,
but that she did the courting, that it was
through her persuasion that he agreed to
the marriage.
It Is alleged that a few days after they
were married she took him to ( I rand
View cemetery and told hint that was the
place he should lte bnried, and that Itefore
he signet! the deeds conveying his pro
perty to his wife, she gave him wine
which was drugg'sl.
Mr. Barnes claimed he was under the
influence of the drug when he attached
his signature.
