Indian Eelict.
'.Squire Samuel Compton, of Elk Lick
township, is the possessor of a fine lot of
Indian roli-s, among which are flint ar-
ro w heads, stons hatchets of fine finish,
aud implements of stone ; altogether it is
most likely that it is the finest collection
of the kind in this county. There is be-
Rides these a very large stone that is in
its w ay quite as much a curiosity as auy j promptly at Alter tue anuieuce nau
of the rest. This is a large stone of a cone J united in singing a hymn, Rev. Mullen
or sugar loaf shape, perfectly dressed, j dore, of the Disciple Church, read a les
w ith a large hole through the centre. Its son from 12 Ecclesiastics: "Remember
weight is sai 1 to Is? fully a ton and it was Now Thy Creator in the Days of Thy
f-Mind somew here in the vicinity of Youth, Ac." Upon the completion of the
Common's Mill. Our local savants are
greatly puzzled Nth as to. its origin and
its use ; some seem to think it an Indian
relic, while others as stoutly maintain
that it is the work of some early settlors.
but seem to be unable to assign any use
to which it could h:ve been adapted.
The very latent assertion that we have
heard concerning this certainly curious
stone is that it was made by a man named
Seese, who lived in tho neighborhood
some seventy years age, who used it for
crushing hemp and this is as reasonable
a theory as any.

Will Elect Constable.
Ow ing to the ambiguity of the Act of
Assembly of lsst roP.ilir.g to the election
of constables in this stale, tho commis
sions of some were dated Iss; and others
1V;W, but all for a three-year term, so
things liecame so mixed that it was dilli
culttotellin many precincts when the
constables should be elected. The last
session of the assembly passed an act,
which requires elections of constables to
le made next spring iu order to straight
en matters out. T he act reads :
"That the uualified voters of every lior
ough rnd township, and w here a borough
is divided into wards, of every ward, in
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania!
shall, on the third Tuesday of February,
Anno Domini one thousand eight hun
dred and ninety-six, and tri-anuually
t hereafter, vote for an 1 elect a properly
qualified person for constable in each of

Queer Solioni of a Bishop.
In his address to the Episcopal Dio
cesan convention at Alleitiy, Tuesday,
Bishop I Mane took the ground that the
states should leave the sale of liquor to be
governed by the law of supply and de
mand and should not undertake "to exer
cise any special control" over the traffic
"otherthaiithatwhioh.it exercises over
the sale of other things." The present
meth.Ml of giving it special privileges by
license and subjecting it to special re
strictions, he argued, drives it into com
bination for the use of its Kiliticxl influ
ence in defense of it business interests.
The way to get saloons out of politirs.
the bishop of Albany thinks, is to cease
to make their business peculiar by a legal
treatment which separates and distin
guishes it from trade generally. If they
wore thus left to tike their chances along
with the rest, he believes, w ith good rea
sons, that no more liquor would le sold,
for "there would lo no more liquor
haIimhis than the thirst of the neighbor
hood requires." Having no longer need
to exert H)liti-al influence for their pro
tection against legal indiscrimination, the
saloons would cease to le "centers of
jxilitical power."
Another Chapter in the "Wolf-Angaatine
Warfare.
The legal warfare which has been wag
ing for nearly two years between Joseph
Wolf, of Braddock, and Jasper Augus
tine, of Uniontown, has ag.iin broken
out in Fayette. This time it coma in
the shape of levies made on all of Wolfs
property in Fayette ouuty aud which is
advertises! by the sheriff ami will le sold
unless Wolf can satisfy the judgment
entered against it by Augustine, aggre
gating ?lAfiM. The quarrel letweeii
these two men grew out of their business
relations. In a long bill in equity filed
in the courts of Fayette, Somerset and
Allegheny counties. Wolf set forth that
in numerous deals Augustine, as his
agent, sold properties to him at fabulous
pries, thereby defrauding him.
The matter has been resting quietly all
summer, ow ing to an agreement to arbi
trate the differences. J. V. Thompsiwi
was chosen by Wolf and A. D. Boyd,
Esq., by Augustine as arbitrators. Mr.
15ord declined to serve on tho ground
that as he is one of Augustine's attorneys
it would not be courtesy for him to try
the case. Thus the matter rests. With
in tho l.ist week, it is said, Augustine has
been endeavoring to buy up more judg
ments held by Uniontow n parties against
Wolf fr the purpose, it is alleged, of get
ting a tight grasp on his old enemy.
Wolfs belongings iu Fayette county
are valuable.
Women on School Boardi.
Dr. Nathan C. Sehaeifer, superinten
dent of public instruction, is a strong
advocate of women on school boards.
He says the ofii' of director is one .of
fitness and if woman is more fit for the
place than man she ought to replace
him. On the other side of the Atlantic
woman has shown that sho is superior to
man in her fitness for the oifice.
Dr. Sobaeffer believes man is too
prone to neglect the comforts of the
school house, while on the other hand
the woman is more observant of the
needs of children. He has the first dis-trh-t
to find in Pennsylvania where
women are members of the school board
that it is possible to talk of the "slaughter
of the innocents." He claims it is better
to consult women in tho curriculum and
gradingof the school, and if he had his
ow n way ho would put several women on
each school btird in the j-Ute, From
long experience and careful observation
Dr. SchaetTcr lielieves that we are taking
a great step forward when we place wo
men on school boards.
I TEACHERS' INSTITUTE.
Firit Sett ioa of the S9th Annual Conraa
tioa of Conaty School Taachor.
Two hundred and seventy-nine out of
a total of two hundred and ninety-five
teachers employed in the schools of this
county, answered roll-call at the opening
th ere were a numler of directors present
, from different parta of the county. The
I audience was further augmented by the
' presence of three or four hundred ladies
" and gentlemen from the different districts
j ' the county and from Somerset tow n,
, There was not an unoccupied seat, and
: standing room w as at a premium when
j Superintendent Berkey called for order
lesson the minister ottered an invocation
that appeared to touch the hearts of hi
large audience.
Ex-Couuty Superintendent Sanner,
who was on the program to deliver the
"Address of Welcome," was roundly ap
plauded when he arose. After the usual
IMtrfuiictory words of welwme, he
branched off into an addresson the qual
ifications and duties of teachers. His
address was well received and has since
been highly spoken of by all w ho heard
it
W. II. Kretchman, principal of tho
Berlin schools, responded to the address
of welcome iu a masterly and effective
ii&micr. Voicing the sentiments of a
majority of the teachers, ho paid a neat
trio. ite to Superintendent Berkey for his
labors iu behalf of the school of the
county, and concluded his remarks by
saying that the teachers had not come
here simply on a pleasure jaunt or for
recreation, but to acquire knowledge and
to lie instructed by tho eminent educat
ors who had been brought here for that
purise.
Prof. Arnold Tompkins of tho Illinois
University, Chicago, was introduced
to the institute and delivered a lecture on
school management that showed him to
Ik? a past-master in the profession. Tho
Doctor has a charming address that wins
him friends without apparent effort on
his part. His popularity with Somerset
county teachers was assured after his first
appearance.
Prot DeMotle, who had been assigned
the last period at this session, was unable
to le present on account of having missed
railroad connection at Hyndmaii, aud
Dr. Schmucker, of tho West Chester
State Normal, supplied his place, deliv
ering a highly entertaining talk on
"Nature."
MONDAY MOIIT's SKSSIOX.
It is doubtful whether a Somerset Coun
ty Teachers' Institute audience was ever
more highly or profitably entertained
than Monday night's large audience was
by Prof. J. B. DeMotle, w ho delivered
his illustrated lecture on that groat un
known power, called "Electricity,"
which is so rapidly revolutionizing our
civilization. The lecturer traced the de
velopment of the magnetic current from
its earliest discovery down to tbo present
day and forshadowed a number of mar
velous discoveries, such as light w itbout
beat, soon to bo made public His re
marks were so clear, notwithstanding
they dealt with tho results of scientific
investigation, that the dullest person in
the house had no difficulty in following
him. The value of the lw-ture was furth
er enhanced by a number of ntereopticon
views of great merit. Teachers who
failed to hear Prof. DeMotle will live to
regret it,
Tl'EsDAY MORXIXrt SKSSIOX.
Ira G. Carver presided at the teachers'
session from 8:30 to 9-A "Use and
Alsise of School Supplies," was discuss
ed by Albert Lam!.ert, A. L. Maust, C.
C. Schmucker aud Superintendent Berk
ey. Prof. Speicher, in response to a query:
"How Can Our Schools Procure libra
ries?" said the only sure way was to get
the directors to provide them. He is op
posed to holding school exhibitions, fes
tivals, Ac, for this purpose.
An entirely original production and
one of the ablest aud most practical ever
delivered lie fore a local institute, was a
paierbyMiss Ida Shoemaker, of Mey
ersdale on "Busy Work for Primary Pu
pils." The regular session was very interest
ing, owing mainly to the fact that the in
struction was given in a happy manner.
Practical suggestions are always welcom
ed by the teachers. To the young teach
er, perhaps more than others, tho price
less hints, as well as specific directions
for school work, are eagerly grasped ; im
pressive thoughts are jotted down in note
lKks to stimulate the memory, by ai:d
by. The plan of dividing the institute
into two departments is of incalculable
benefit to Is lh teachers and instructors,
the former having an hour set aside for
an interchange of views on methods
adopte I by different section of the coun
ty, while the latter are given an opportu
nity to discuss the topics at hand fully
and satisfactorily.
The session was called to order by Supt.
Berkey, when Rev. Harkey, of the Lu
theran Church, conducted religious ser
vices. After a short drill in music by
Prof. Gresh, Prof. J. D. Meese, of the
California, Pa., State Normal, delivered
a half-hour's talk on "English Gram
mar." He handled his question skillful
ly for one, as he said, "not accustomed to
public speaking," and was given an at
tentive hearing.
The next speaker was Prof. S. C.
.Schmucker, of the West Chester State
Normal, youthful looking gentleman,
who has his well-shaped hea 1 crammed
full of know ledge on all kinds of ques
tions interesting to teachers, and w ho
talks so rapidly "that the words seem to
lie shot from his mouth by a compressed
airguu. His subject was "Flowers,"
and ho aroused his andience to such a
point of enthusiasm that all w ere sorry
when he had to give way to Prof. Tomp
kins, who delivered the semnd of hi
scholarly addresses on "School Manage
ment" Huudreds of people were unable to
gain admission to the court-room at the
afternoon session. The room was un
comfortably crowded, every seat Iteiug
occupied, while tho aisles were packed
with men anil women. Principal E. E.
Pritts, of the Somerset borough schools,
read a paper on "What Shall We Teach?"
and was followed by Prof. DeMotle, who
was speaking when this report closed.
Superintendent Berkey has secured
the most brilliant corps of instructors
throughout ever brought to this county.
and the institute will fall far short of its
purpose if it does not result profitably to
teachers and the public,
IXSTlTl'TE XOTES.
Among the veteran teachers attending
institute are Capt R. R. Sanner, S. S.
Forney, and P. U. Miller. All of them
arc on the shady side of life, but are nev
ertheless recognized as being among the
most successful teachers in the county.
That teaching is no longer looked upon
as a stepping-stone to some other profes
sion or better paying occupation is evi
denced by the large number of teachers
at institute who havo been in the ranks
for fifteen years and more, aud w ho have
kept step with the progress that has been
made iu the science of teaching.
The voices of a number of teachers be
come quite faint when the roll Li called.
These same teacher are probably the
very ones who speak most harshly in the
school room.
Tho "Hotel Vannear"' presented an ani
mated scene last night. All of the insti
tute instructors and about one hundred
teacher, in addition to a regular large
transient custom, are stopping at that
popular resort. Beside affording enter
tainment for the guests of the house, the

Every room in the house is occupied and
the building when illuminated through
out calls forth remarks of admiration
from all w ho behold it.
One of tho most experienced teachers
iu the county and one who is always
present at the opening session of Teach
ers' Institute, is Miss Maggie Knepper,
of Berlin. Miss Knepper generally occu
pies the same neat at Institute. Sheen
joys the distinction ofling the last one
to stand npagainst Prof. Joseph J. Stutz

JOHHSOH IS ACQUITTED.
The Court Finds Him Hot Oailty of Zafall'e
Murder.
Richard D. Johnson was acquitted at
Cumberland, Md., on Wednesday, of the
murder of Grant W. Zufall, of Meyers
dale, on Dec til, 1XU.
The physicians who made tho autopsy
testified that Zufall was dead liefore be
ing placed in the water, as was shown by
the lungs lieing inflated and no water
found iu them.
Detective Samuel Young testified that
when a woman named Annie Young was,
in his presence, shown a photograph of
Zufall, she turned to Johnson and said:
"Why, that is Zufall, whom you brought
hero just before Christmas." Johnson
liecame angry and remarked: "I don't
know Zufall, never saw him and don't
care whether ho is in that stove, under
the ice or iu h 1, and if I could get him
out with my little finger I would not do
it." Then turning to the detective, John
son pulled some papers from his pockets
and said: "Young, there are the proofs
you arc looking for, and I will destroy
1110111," w hich he did by throw iug them
into the fire.
Iewis Peacock, one of the men on
whose testimony tbo Grand Jury found
tho indictment against Johnson, testified
that he came to Cumlierlaud from Berry -ville,
Va., on December 22, and that nt
aliout 11 o'clock on Christmas eve he en
tered the saloon of John Yaste and there
met William James; that they were
standing at the bar, when they heard
loud voices iu an adjoining room, and
looking through tho door saw Johnson
strike Zufall upon the head with a club;
that Zufall fell with a groan and Johnson
said: "Now, d n you, I've lieen lying
for you and caught you." Johnson then
walked into tho barroom proper and lay
ing down a twenty dollar bill passed out
of the place. Peacock, with James, then
left the saloon after hearing the barten
der say: "He's not dead. Tako li i in up
stairs." Peai-ock then took a train and
returned to Berryville, arriving there in
time for Christmas dinner.
William James, the other witness who
caused Johnson's arrest, substantiated
Peacock's testimony. Here witnesses
were produced who testified that they re
turned to Berryville, V., and that Pea
cock was in that place on last Christmas
eve and participated in a Christmas en
tertainment on that night. Several other
witnesses gave testimony that Johnson
was in their company at Henry Ashe's
restaurant between Kh-'IOand 1 o'clock
on Christmas evo.
Johnson testified in his own lehaf
that he had not lieen in Yaste's saloon on
that night; that he was with Charlotte
Rohm anil several other parties at Ashe's;
that at 11:15 he, in company with the
Rohm woman, went to the house of Mrs.
Young, where he remained some time.
He denied any knowledge of the murder;
said that he never saw Zufall in life or
death, and left town shortly after Christ
mas at the solicitation of his father, who
wished him to give up bad companions.
He did not know that Zufall was mur
dered until he read the account of his
death iu the papers. On cross-examination
by the prosecution, Johnson stuck
to this statement. The prosecution then
submitted the case to tho court upon the
agreement of the defense without argu
ment, and the court returned a verdict of
not guilty.
Bench warrants were then sworn out
for the arrest of James and Peacock,
charging thoui with perjury, and they
wero held for the next term of court.
These men still stick to the statement
that they saw Johnson kill Zufall, and
say that they will get other witnesses to
prove it.

WAHTED A HAM"
Several Good Onei Saggeited for the Hew
Hotel.
A numlier of our lady readers havo al
ready availed themselves of the oppor
tunity to select a name for tho summer
hotel, now in course of erection on Tay
maii's Hill. One writer wants to know
if tho names of all the ladies suggesting
names will be published in the Hkkalii;
certainly not at this time. Only the
names suggested for the hotel will be
published, and the identity of tlid ladies
making the suggestions will be kept se
cret until after tbo board of directors
have agreed upon seven names from
which the name of the house will bo se
lected. After the hotel directors have
made their selection, the Hkrai.u will
give them name of all the ladies who
have entered the contest.
A Friedens young lady writes: "Name
the new hotel 'Mt, Airy Hotel,' liecauso
of its elevation."
"The site adopted by the hotel com
pany is one of the most imitosing In the
middle states, occupying as it doe, with
possibly one or two exceptions, the most
elevated ground iu Pennsylvania. It
commands a view of tho Allegheny, Ne
gro and Laurel Hill Mountains, and
therefore in justice to the location if for
no other reason the hotel should lie call
ed 'Mountainview House,"' Stella.
"I think 'Oglothorjie' would be a real
sweet name for the hotel. It is English,
but has been adopted by several of the
principal resorts in the United States.
F. S."
"I think the most appropriate name for
the new resort," writes a Somerset girl,
"would lie "Scotia,' in honor of Mr. W.
A. Scott, Jr., who is the chief promoter of
the enterprise. "Scotia is sweet to the
ear and appeals to the imagination. Cer
tainly tho 'Highlands of Scotland' are
not more beautiful than the highlands of
Somerset. E. S."
"The name of the new hotel should le
romantic and I would suggest that it lie
called 'Hickory Hollow Inn,' since the
tract of land to be converted into a pleas
ure ground for the guest of the house
ha long been known as 'Hickory Hol
low.' Moi.lik."
"Tayman Lodge,' has an attractive
jingle. It would bring lots of people to
the new hotel who have enjoyed the hos
pitality of the hotels conducted by Mr.
Geo. Tayman and his mother. Call it
Tayman Lodge.' Jexxik."
"I am one of tho old-fashioned girls
who lielieve in associating the names of
people with real estate, and therefore
suggest that the summer hotel lie named
'The Parsonage," as a tribute to the late
James Parson, who for so many years
was the owner of the farm on which the
hotel w ill le built. I do not want to be
understood as intimating that the hotel
will lie run in the interest of any relig
ious denomination. J. E."
