Scores of pieces of property advertised In the list of uuseated lauds as for sale, by the county treasurer, are in reality not for sale. Many owners, when they discovered by the public advertisement, that they were delinquent for auy part ofthe taxes, liquidated the aauie with ail costs. The reason such properties are not withdrawn from the advertised list, after all claims have been satisfied, is becaute it would involve too much trouble. This is very unfortunate, as it makes the advertised list both incorrect and misleading to the public. The largest line of Wall Paper ever shown in the county at Sn York's Art Stork.

BIGS SCHOOL COMXZHCEKEHr. A Clati of Sixteea Graduated from the Fab lio SckooU. The graduating exercise of the borough, public schools attracted an audience that filled the Opera House to overflowing Friday evening. Tho sixteen members ofthe class, twelve "sweet girls" and four manly young men, occupied the centre of the stage. The girls were all arrayed in white gowns and eaoh wore a magnifi cent corsage bouquet. Several of the young ladies, also, - carried cut flowers. The boys weie dressed in black. Sweet smelling flowers and large palms orna mented the front of the stage. The class colors, cardinal and white, were grace fully interwoven among the flowers worn by the young ladies aud in the dec orations of the stage. Delightful music was furnished by the Otho orchestra. As soon as the curtain was elevated Principal E. E. Pritts, with a bearing that showed that he was fully satisfied w ith the merits of the class aud that each mem tier would reflect honor on tho corps of teachers, called upon Rev. J.S. Harkey to ask an invocation. The honor of delivering the "Salutatory Address" fell to the lot of Miss Louise Collmrn and very creditably indeed did she execute her part.

The follow ing is taken from a letter of Hon. William M. Hall, in the Bedford Uuzcltr : The Pennsylvania State Lbrry has lately purchased from John P.

It is no small trouble to put them away each week and take care of them for years, and few do it. There was a gap of twenty-four years, from 1S0S to ISii, which probably never can be fully supplied. When Charles McDowoll died, his files, w hich wero un bound, wero put on the loft of his print ing ofiice and there they remained in dust-covered obscurity for years until they were ultimately used as waste paper, being regarded as of no value. What a mistake! For historical purposes they would now be worth their weight in sil verperhaps I might say gold. A few scattered numbers of the Gazette in this interregnum have been gathered up and p reserved, bringing the file down to 1800, and i is hoped other numliers may yet be found among the papers of old resi dents. Tho State Library is doubtless a very proper place of deposit. The careful preservation of these valuable papers In a fire.iroof building, w here they will be accessible to investigators of the early history of the country, is very desirable not so convenient, of course, for ex amination to citizens of Bedford as they would lie if they could lie preserved here, but in the absence of any provision for their careful preservation here, it is well that they go to tho Slate Library. Newspapers of half a century ago are by no means as full of local news as those issued now. The advertisements, however, furnish many items of value to the investigator of local history. Aud the columns of old newspapers will grow still more valuable as the centuries roll on and the early life of this wonderful country grows additionally interesting to the long line of descending generations that we hope will follow us and maintain our free institutions with pride in their ancestry and nationality.

On Friday last at Princess Aune, Md., a jury was summoned to inquire into the mental condition of Mrs. Sarah E. Ward, w ife of John I. Ward, residing near Mar ion, in Somerset county. After hearing the testimony the jury adjudged the un fortunate woman insane. Mr. Ward asked that his wife might be committed to his custody until Monday, when the sheriff would take her to the asylum at Frederick. Mr. Ward's reqnest was grant ed, as he assured the authorities that she w as vicious. Early Sunday morning he became weary of watching and fell asleep when his wife secured a hatchet w hile he slept and inflicted tweMy-seven wounds on his head and then jumped from the window and escaped to tho wotxls.

A case of wide-spread interest, in as-, much as it will have the effect of causing persons having money to loan on real estate security to look more chjsely than heretofore into titles before making In vestments, was tried before Judge Longe neckei at tho speciel term of court held last week. John M. Ollnger, the well-known Mey ersdale banker and capitalist, was plain tiff in the" action, aud Peter Shultz, of Elk Lick township, appeared upon the record as defendant, although be wasouly nominally In that capacity, Mrs. Susan Mognet having intervened when the case was called for trial and was placed upon tho record as defendant. Some five or six years ago John T. Hocking loaned ",J00 to the Mountain Electrical Manufa'-tiiring and Supply Company, of Meyersdale. The loan was secured by a mortgtge and judgment bond. Later Hocking foreclosed upon the Company and realized about $2,000 from the sale of their plant. His next step, in order to protect himself, was to issue against several members of the company, who had signed the bond as individuals. One of the latter wasJ. G. Mognet, who was supposed to lie the owner of a farm containing 142 acres iu Elk Lick township. At the time the farm was offered for sale by the Sheriff of Somerset county, notice was served upon prospective bidders in behalf ot Mrs. Susan Mognet that title to tho land vested in her, and that she would protect her rights aud interests. The farm was knocked down to John M. Olinger, rep resenting the Board of Trade of Mey ersdale. Peter Shultz was tenant of the farm under Mr. Mognet, and refused to vacate when requested so to do by Olinger, who thereupon brought an action in ejectment, which was the case tried last week. The plaintiff proved that the land was conveyed to J. 11. Mognet by George F. Baer and wife by deod dated 4th April, IKsj ; that Mognet had always been recog nized as the owner, had leased the farm in bis own name, and had annually paid the taxes on the same. This u not controverted by the defense, hut Mrs. Mognet and other witnesses were placed upon the stand and testified that she had furnished nearly all, if not all, of the money which went to the purchase ofthe farm, and that she did not kuow that title to the samo was in her husband until about 1S!)0, when she learned that such was the case. She immediately and on several subsequent occasions request ed her husband to make a deod to hor, showing that title to the (arm was in her, which he did in 12, at a day subsequent to the time the bond made by the mem liers of the Mountain Electrical Sup ply Company had been entered of record. Here the plaintiff undertook t show that no trust had been entered into at tho time of the making of the deed by Baer to Mognet, that it had not been made by mistake or iu violation of any agreement, or in ignorance of the rights of auy of the parties concerned." The defendant answered this by proving thut the purchase money had been paid by her father, tho late Samuel P. Miller, and by herself with money received from her father's estate, and that the agree ment was that the deed was to I made in her name, and that she never knew that it hail not boon inado in her name until 1M), when she sot about having it corrected, as staivd above. Upon this statement of facts the case was given to the jury, after argument by counsel and the charge of the Court. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the defendant. It is pmhablo that a motion for a now trial will tie filed. V Another case disposed of by trial before Judge Longenecker was that of Emanuel Bowman and his son Robert J. Bowman vs. lieorge Cobaugh. In this case tho plaintiffs claimed (.1,000 damages sustain ed by reason of wrongful acts of defend ant in erecting his fence and placing rails ud posts on the publio highway iu such a manner as to obstruct travel, resulting in plantiffs buggy coming in contact wilh said fence, w hen the vehicle over turned and was broken and the plaintiffs were seriously injured. It was proven that Mr. Cohan gh had' encroached upon the pnblic highway to the extent of several inches when he con structed a fence along a piece of his land, about one and one-half miles north of Somerset, on the Johnstown pike, when be erected a new fence about two years ago, and an attempt was made to show that he was liable by reason of this en croachment for the damage sustained by the Bowmans. The defendant proved that the road was wide enough at the point where the accident occurred for three teams to pass at one time and that he had not encroached on the road-lied at alLThejury returned a verdict for $12 in favor of the father, and (3 in favor of tho son. m V Still another case disposed of was an actiou in trespass, iq which John Mt Wright, of Flk Lick township, was plain tiff and Frank O. Li vengood, of Somer set, was defondaut Plaintiff claimed damages sustained by reason of defundaut erecting aud maintaining a dam across the Casselman river, causing the waters thereof to overflow the lauds of the plaintiff, and also causing the cur rent or bed of the river to change its course and cut into, wash and carry away the soil of plaintiff. It appeared from the testimony offered that the defendant had reconstructed the dam about the time the plaintiff secured possession of the alleged injured farm, aud the issue hinged on the question of whether the defendant had elevated the dam some eighteen inches, as was alleged by plaintiff, or whether it had been lowered two inches, as was alleg ed by defendant. The jury returned a verdict for $..00 damages in favor of the plaintiff. All ofthe other cases on the calendar for tho special term were eith,or settlod or continued.

Judge Mestrezat, of Fayetto county, last week made au important ruling in the case of Annie Goodwin against James F. Goodwin, her husband, compelling her father-in-law, James F. Goodwin, Sr., to pay her $2 per week for the sup port of her child. Mrs. Goodwin and her child are now in the Couuty Home, hav ing been committed to that institution last fall. While a student in a Philadelphia medical college, Goodwin met and mar ried Annie Dunn. Soon after sho went with her mother on a trip to Europe. Upon their return Goodwin could not bo found. She tame to Fayette county from Philadelphia to tb home of Goodwin's parents, near Smithfield, and importuned them for assistance, which they did not render. Sho then applied te the authorities and was committed to the County Home. Soon after she prosecuted her husband for desertion, but he tied to West Virgin ia aud could not be found by the officers. Then she brought suit against her father-in-law to compel him to support her in fant child, and it was in this last suit the order by Judge Mestrezat wu made. This was the first ruling of this kind ever made in Fayette county. You can bay a Hat already trimmed. Any price you wish to pay, from f 1.60 op. at Mrs. Coffroth' s. Of Interest to Dairymea. ' The Department of A grlcultnr has is sued Kl circulars to prominent dairymen in the State asking information as to. the exact ration they nro now feeding their cows. The objm-t is to show in what manner these rations may l improved and made more effective without arfiy material or corresponding Increase in their cost. It Is a well recognized fact that our dairymen feed for two distinct purposes, viz., to supply the system of the animal and to mnkn milk or butter. It is an equally woli recognized fact that these distinct purposes require distinct classes of food, and that iu very many cases au excess of food necenary and available only for supplying the animal lieat and waste of animal tissue is being fed, when it Is well known that all abo o a certain amount is lost. It is admitted that in this manner many thousand dol lars of excellent feeding material is each year practically hst, and thut as good or better results can lie secured with less of certain classes of food, and that this might all be saved and becomo profit In tho business. If these circulars have no other effect than to cause two or three hundred dairy men in our bitute to carefully weigh their fted and study its results, the lalior and expense will bo by no means lost,' but tho work must certainly accomplish moro than this. The returns already made clearly domoustrute tho fact thut tho to whom the circulars have been sent fully appreciate the attempt of the De partment of Agriculture to assist them and fc endeavor to enable them to save feed and thus lower the cost of their product, and a majority of these replies contain valuable information, which can e condensed and put into a form avail able to the general reader. Tho Question of Board. The question of boarding the labor on a farm known as farm bands is one that has excited a great deal of discussion among the farmers of the State in the past year, says the Harrisburg Telegraph, ami it is brought up at all gatherings of the men who till tho soil. At one of these meetings not long ago the following extract from the memoranda of an old fanner was offered, as showing the esti mated cost of boarding farm hands seventy-one years ago. The following items, with the prices attached, were given as necessary for the board of ten workmen for a single week. The items aud prices are suggestive as compared wilh similar items at the present time: 5 tiurt."i of inolasstn .$ 62 ) sMi nun of Uicon.
