Between the hour of 11 and 12 o'clock Sunday morning, 17th inst., firo brake out in the farm house of George Weigh man, of Allegheny township, and in a short time the entire building n en veloped iu flames. Mr. Weighman and bis two eldest sons were absent at church and Mrs. Weigh man and tho younger children mado a futile attempt to carry the household furniture contained in the building to plaao of safety. A strong west wind prevailed at tho time and the flames soon communicated with the barn, corn crib and other outbuildings and with an unoccupied dwelling, a quarter of a mile distant, also tho property of Mr. Welgbman. In the barn was stored a largo lot of valuable farm machinery, including a thresher, mower, wagons, hai ness, etc, all of which were devoured by the flames. A lot of hay and grain and a number of hogs also perished in the fire. When Mr. Weighman returned home nothing remained of his buildings but a few charred and smouldering timbers, everything else having been bu rued to ashes. His loss is estimated at f !,0i) on which there was about fi.-'fcX) insurance in the Somerset County Mutual Fire Insurance Association.

When the flames were first discovered they had eaten their way through the roof. Mr. Weighman and family have re moved to New Baltimore, where they w ill temporarily reside until he can have a new home erectcii. Appealed to Court. According to Mayor Welrley there is "blood on the municipal moon." Mon day afternoon Judge Longenecker grant ed a preliminary injunction restraining the borough authorities from building a culvert across tho foot of West Main Street. The injunction was not served by the Sheriff until after the old bridge crossing the stream at the point indicat ed had lieen torn away and replaced by a line of twenty-four inch tile. Mayor Wellley says that tho council acted too promptly in having tho work, which ho considers unnecessary, done, and that he will in all probability veto tho resolution authorizing it at the next meeting of that Ixsly. Councilman E. H. Werner, whose property abuts ou the small stream cros sing West Main Street, recently offered a resolution in council authorizing the street commissioner to replace the stone culvert with twin lines of 24 Inch tile. The resolution was defeated. Sunday it was noised about town that Mr. Werner would ask the Court for an injunction restraining the municipal authorities from putting down a single line of twenty-four inch tile. In order to defeat Werner's movement the street commis sioner put a force of men int work at an early hour Monday morning and had the tile in position In-fore the injunction was granted. Wiiat further action will le taken in the matter it is impossible to state. Baling on Land 7arranU. The lK.ard of property has decided that where a warrant for vacant la id has been granted by the commonw ealth and a re turn of survey mile in pursuance of such grant there can lie no forfeiture of the rights of the warrantee, even though a patent has been granted, uuless it shall appear that fraud has hceti committed to secure the warrant. The board also de cides that where a warrant has been granted for vacant land a return of sur vey mado and only a portion of the pur chase money paid there can be no .forfeit ure to the state by reason of failureof the purchase money. These conclusions were arrived at yes terday at a meeting at tho department of internal affairs on account of the provis ions of law which give the commonwealth a lien upon the laud described fjr the balances of fees and purchase money due the oomm-onwealth. Because of the findings in this case the board refused the applications of W. B. Stevens, of Seranton, for large tracts of vacant land in Lackawanna ouuty h-dd by tho Dela ware, Lackawanna and llaion railroad company.

Battle With a Blackiaake. Mr. Jerry Berkey, of near Stoyestown, had an experience with a blacksuake a few days ago which he is not anxious to have repeated. On the day in question he was on his way to the barn. On reach ing the top of tho flight of steps leading to the granary he saw an immense black- snake lying at his feet. Its head was toward hint and was not over three inches away from his foot. Under tho circumstance he did not care to either advance or retreat, and concluded to attack where ho was, setting his foot down hard ou his enakeship's head. The very instant ho did so the snake's whole body seemad to lly in the air, and before Mr. Berkey knew exact ly what was happening it was wrapped tightly around his leg, with constantly increasing pressure. The left foot was still free, and with it Mr. Berkey man aged to crush the serpent's head and then, when the grip had loosen td some what, strip the coil from his leg. When stretched out and measured Mr. Berkey found he bad been doing battle with a good two yards of snake. It is the first reptile of the kind ever seen on tho farm to his knowledge. A Deserved Etbake. The New York juror who, on being rep rimanded fT inattention to the case be was supposed to be trying, rose and re buked the lawyers in charge of it for "asking silly questions and wasting time" did the state some service. He expedited the trial of tho case by stopping the law yers' flow of irrelevant talk and -he vin dicnted the right of intelligent citizens to I intelligent ev en in the jury box. The practh of trying to befog jurymen, puzzle witnesses and win a verdict by chicanery is much too common among a certain class of lawyers not only in New York but elsewhere, and it is a standing reproach ti our judicial system that ho much of it is permitted. It would soon lie ended, however, if all jurors were as well aware of their rights and as ready to claim them as was Mr. Twombly. The last thing a lawyer wishes to do is to gain the ill-will ol the jury, and if he finds that pettifogging is having that effect he w ill soon stop pettifogging.

The widow Raid she did not throw a kiss at Mr. Fawcett, but did waft one toward his wife. If, however, it went astray and hit Mr. Fawcett, it did not hurt much, as there was no malice in the kiss. Miss Ashkraft pleaded guilty to throw ing kisses at Mr. Fawcett. She hated Mr. Fawcett's wife, she said, and did it to make her jealous. It developed that the two families, who are next door neighbors, have been at dagger's points over trivial differences. The judge dis charged the widow and fined her daugh ter 5. He gave Mr. Fawcett a severe rebuke for bringing such a case into court. Miss Ashkraft begged the judge to remit the fine, promising never to throw kisses again. He relented to the extent of suspending the fine during good behavior. A bottle of Dr. Wood's Norway Piue Syrup in the house saves doctors' bills. saves trouble, and very often saves pre cious lives.

"The South Peun mad will be built lte yond a doubt," said a prominent ofllclsl of tho Pennsylvania railroad when asked the other day about the future of that fa mous line, "but it will not be done this v.-nr Tim rfl-miri-pvs of the route, nou- I - - - . ' : nIlnlu..l.n,1 ..I I ..l IKflllj; llimio VJ vu"i-' rune neers, are for the purpose of perfecting our right of way, so that when we decide to go ahead w ith the road and complete it there will be nothing to dolay us. No time has been fixed on for the resump tion of work, but I don't suppose that it will be many years lieforo wo find that we can mako use of another line across the state to great advantage." As originally projected, the S uth Penn railroad was to extend from PitJi burg, where it had the backing of An drew Carnegie and other large manufac turers, to Harris burg, where it was to connect with the Reading railroad. The financial sponsors for the road wero the Vandorbilts, who, in revenge for the support given by the Pennsylvania rail road to 'the unnecessary- paralleling of the New York Central by the West Shore road, carried the war into their rival's territory, by starting the South Penn aud Beech Creek roadsboth of which were projected Into the very heart ol the Pennsylvania's torritory. A truce was declared after the Vanderbilts and the Pittsburg manufacturers hail spent $5,000,000 on the South Penn, but it came too late to prevent the construction of tho Beech Creek railroad,' which has ever remained as a thorn in the side of the Pennsylvania people, giving the Van derbilts acacss to the rich Clearfield coal fields. Iu taking up the work of finishing the South Penu it is understood that tho Pennsylvania railroad, which bought the line from tho Vauderbllts, intend to com plete only a portion of it. This will prob ably be from Newville, on the Cumber land Valley road, to ML Dallas, the northern terminus of tho Pennsylvania's Bedford division. By the construction of this new stretch of railroad tho Penn sylvania would secure a connection with its Bedford division, which is now iso lated from the rest of the system, and would secure for its own lines the entire haul of the West Virginia coal, which now passes from Mt. Dallas to Hunting don over the tracks of the Huntingdon A Broad Top railroad. It is doubtful if the South Penn will ever be built beyond Mt. Dallas, at least, not for many years. Most of tho expen sive tunnel work, on which so much money was spent, is bet.voo:i Newville and Mt. Dallas, and the cost of finishing this portion of road will not be very heavy.

Then They Harried. A dispatch from Cleveland to the New York Trilmne says: Nothing more romantic and beautiful in the matter of courtship has ever been published than the courtship of the next President with the noble woman who is now his wife. In the town where they resided she was the teacher of a Bible class in the First Presbyterian Church, and he the superintendent of the Sunday school of the First Methodist Episcopal Church. Iu going to their respective schools they passed each other at a cer tain corner, and found it pleasant to stop occasionally and indulge in conversation concerning their work. This went on for many mouths, until ou an ever-memor able Sunday afternoon in their history he said to hen "I don't like this separation every Sun day, you going one way and I another. I.ct us change the order. Supjose after this we always go tho same way. I think that is the thing for us to do. What do you think?" I think so, too," was the answer, which gave to him ono of the mast beau tiful of wives and to her ono of the no blest and most devoted of husbands.

Moritz Pront is suffering from cata lepsy at a hospital in New York City. He is 19 years old aud lived at No. 205 Delancey street. He has been uncon scious, apparently sleeping, for nearly twenty-three days, and shows no signs of awakening. He had a align', attack of catalepsy five years ago, the pt-riod of un consciousness then lasting less than twenty-four hours. Since then be has had three seizures, each of longer dura tion than its predecessor. Dr. Bernard Nelson, the chief of the house staff at Beth Israel Hospital, said today that a strong current of elertricity had been passed through Pront's body four or five times a day. An attempt to awaken him by starvation had beeu tried and was unsuccessful, and another attempt was begun Thursday which will be continued for fifty hours. Pront's pulse, respiration and temperature are normal. Hi End Wai The Cope. Elmer Fordish, alias Florence Fuurer, a convict in the Western Penitentiary, committed suicide Wednesday morning by hanging himself in bis cell. Fordish will be rcmcinliered here as the man who murdered Baltimore & Ohio Fireman Michael Nllaud at Yoder siding alxxit four years ago. Ford.h's parents live in Wilkinslairg, Allegheny county. He was tried for N Hand's murder before Judge longenecker at tho June term of court, IW2. He was convicted of volun tary manslaughter and w as sentenced to 0 years' imprisonment, bo that he had served very nearly four years of his limo when be decided to bike his life. Ever since he was a prisoner at River side he has been subject to moody and despondent spells, and these became much more pronounced as the time rolled on. For the past several months he has been considered a very dangerous man, and the Penitentiary officials, by com mand of Warden Wright, were more than usually watchful in his case. They guarded him so carefully that they scarce ly ever lot him out of their sight, and by day or night he was almost constant ly under their olervation. Of late, in particular, his demeanor was reckless and forbidding, and he was often heard to make use of the expression that he would "as soon be dead as alive." He was a man of more than average parU and education, and, in his brighter and better moments, could be quite agree able to those with w horn he caino in con tact. But these fair spells only came, it iuw, at long and irregular intervals, and he seemed to bear the burden of his sentence very heavily, and with increas ing gloom of spirit. It is somewhat a puzzle to tho Penitentiary officials how he succeeded iu taking his life at the hour named, for guards were passing and rarutssing his cell all the time, and as an 1 .idh-ation of the short space that could only have elapsed between his hanging and the finding of the corpse, it may be stated that the body was warm w hen it was cut down. It was found by a turn key uurned Jones and another, and they at once went into the cell aud cut the body down, and then summoned the resident physician, who, however, pro nounced life extinct, and was able to decide that Fordish at last had realized his oft-repeated wish. Fordish shot and killed Fireman Michael Niland without the slightest provocation. He was brakeman on tho same train Niland was firing on. They were lying at Yoder waiting for tho west bound mail to r-ass when the shooting occurred. Niland and Fordish had some wr is alsmt shoveling down the coal from the top cf the engine tank, but there was nothing like a quarrel. Suddenly Fordish pulled a revolver and shot Ni land through the heart. Shortly after his imprisonment in tho Somerset county jail Fordish admitted to a reporter that ho had killed his victim without giving him an opportunity to do feud himself. The admission was made in the presence of Sheriff McMillen, but was under the seal of cnfid?n.-o, and was therefore not used against him. When the jury returned their verdict he turned to the reporter and whispered: "If yon had gone on the stand they would have stretched my ueck." Criminal Court. The regular term of criminal court opened at 10 o'clock Monday morning with Judges longenecker, Biesecker and Horner on the bench. Henry Hoffman, of Somerset township, was appointed foreman of the grand jury. Judge Longenecker administered the oath of office to Prof. E. E. Pritts, the newly elected County Superintendent of Public Schools. F. O. Dupont, of RiM'kwocd, convicted at February sessions of aggravated as sault and battery, was sentenced to pay a fine of $10, tho eoits of prosecution and undergo imprisonment in tho county jail for a period often days. The first case called for trial was one in which Martin Williams was indicted for burglary on information of Rufus Ranch. The defendant appeared in court w ith out an attorney and the Court appointed J. C. Lowry, Esq., to defend him. The jury returned a verdict of guilty. The next case called was one iu which Nelson Fletcher is defendant on a charge of false pretense. The case is 1 icing ar gued w hen this report closed. The District Attorney entered a hiI lr G'ntxeqtir in the follow ing cases: Commonwealth vs. Michael Mowry, F. " B., Carrie K. Bittner, pros. Same vs. J. J. Berkepile, F. B-, Mary Sliockey. pros.

But it may well lie doubted if tho shaking up alioard ship, which peo ple of very fragile constitution and weak nerves get, is not prejudicial if its effects are not averted or nullified by a medi cinal safeguard. The iiet, if we are to believe testimony of ocean travelers, whether they go abroad for health, pleas ure or business, is H-stetters Stomach Bitters. Invalids, commercial travelers. sea captains and yatchuien concur in recommending this fine defensive tonic. So do emigrants to the frontier, the in habitants of malarial regions, aud all who are exposed to hardship or rigors of climate.

GRKEXsnfBrt, Pa., May 25. The trial of Joseph Mayer, charged with the mur der of his wife in the vicinity of Ligonier three months ago, was begun here this morning. The prevailing opinion is that tho commonw ealth has an exceptionally weak case. Mayer and his wife were re turning home from a dance late at night. There was no third person. Tho hus band claimed that while he was chang ing his revolver from one pocket to an other it was accidentally discharged and a bullet struck his wife, killing her. The coroner's jury, summoned the fol lowing day, accepted this statement and he was exonerated. A few days after that a rumor became rife th it the couple left the scene of tho dance in a quarrel some mood, and that the husband was heard to upbraid his wife for dancing during tho evening with another man. That rumor led to his arrest. Mayer still holds to his first statement, ami seems to still greatly lament the sad ending of that winter night's dance. Hover Saw a Sheep or Hog. Chicaoo, May 24. Through John E. Rastall, formerly of Kansas, it has devel oped that one-third of the children of one of the principal grammar schools of Chi cago have never seen a live sheep or bog, though all have seen lions, tigers and other animals of the tropics. The matter has been taken up by the press on the belief that the same ratio of children throughout the city have nev er seen a live sheep or hog, and the park commissioners will be requested to place specimens of these animals in the zoo logical departments of the parks.
