There was joy in Berlin last night. A lse Imll team, composed of six players from that place and three semi profes sionals from the vicinity of Pittsburg, lifted the scalps of the Maroons at Van near Park in the afternoon. Berlin s.or- ed 2 in the third, .1 in the fourth and I in the fifth, while Somerset scored only I iu the fifth, atid that on a wild throw. The game was one-sided throughout, the only features lieing the magnificent iiattcry work of the Pittsburg gentlemen, assist ed by a very able and efficient short Mop. The Marco is were not in their usual good form and were unusually weak with the stick. It was a very narrow esoae from a shut out for the home team, Th j Maroons are w illing to play teams coin .so 1 of all county players at any ti n-, but t'i-y hive Inil sufficient ex uci ic:ii.-c- with salaried players to last tiiein the rest of the season.

She was in delicate health ls?fore sailing lor the south and was not benefited by the journey. Her health Improved after her arrival here and when she start ed for her western home it was thought that it bad been permanently restored. She was seizcJ by the fatal malady the day she reached her home. Mrs. Burns was well know n here, hat ing spent the greater part of her childhood with her grandmother. She was a lieautiftii girl and was loved by all of her large circle of acquaintances. She was twenty-eight years of ao. A reporter of the Johnstown Democrat lifted the readers of that journal Friday morning with a graphic description of the manner and customs of the denizens of the mountain aliove Trent, alleged to be engaged in the moonshine business. The intelligent reporter was imposed upon by his friend, Mr. Caldwell, of Camden, New Jersey, who claims to have been one of a camping party w ho spent ten days in the region mentioned, and, as a result is guilty of publishing a grossly slanderous article reflecting upon some of the mwt tbrifty and law abiding farm ers of this county. The mountaineers, so-called, of fjomerset county, do not go armed day and night, and in place of be ing suspicions of every person traveling through the country, are noted for tbeir generosity and hospitality. It is the ex eptional Somerset county farmer who fails to treat strangers with extreme Qourtesy. But perhaps, Mr. Caldwell an4 the gullible Democrat pencil shover are not to be too harshly censured, since the article reierred to is simply s repeti tion of a lot of rot that baa been rehashed in Plus burg and other daily paper for years past. ."-i uowis an.i iKtaruing liousos are Suicid ef a Former Berliner. John U. Hartman, who was born and grew to manhood in Berlin, w as found dead on a public road in the suburbs of Pittsburg, Thursday morning. He bad committed suicide by shooting himself through the right temple. No cause is assigned for the act except that the young man was insane, as his ai-tions for some time nast seem to indicate that fact. The victim was 24 years of age and single. His father is a prominent business man of I'niontown, having removed from Berlin to that place aliout six years ago. Hartman quit work in his father's store ou July dull, w lieu he went to Pittsburg, In search of employment. He told every body he met that he was a "spotter" for the Consolidated Tra.-tion Company, Wednesdav afternoon he hired a bicycle. saying he was going to call on his cousin. E. K. Johnson, whose home is in tberlast End. He did not annear there. Thurs day morning his lody was found as indi t.l nbov bv a man on his way to work. The bicycle the man had been riding w as found altout four miles from w here the body was found. It was in good con dition. In one of the pockets was found letter addressed to Hartinan's mother. It read : "Mavis? I am doing cowardly thing. but let (Sod l the judge. I am too weak to live. nn. I I hoM)4..Hl will forgive me. Mr breast is full of love tor y.si all. I am w riting iu the dark. idly. With the letter w as found a cabinet rhoUirraih of a vounir girl, and on the back of this, written w ith a lead ix-neil, as was the letter, was : (ioodbve. Liddv. You are the oniy one I ever truly loved." The C-oroncr's jury returned a verdict of suicide by shooting. H.irtman had a brother, William, who wa- murdered three years ago. He was brakeinan on the Baltimore A Ohio railroad, August 15, lssw, while the train was running from IHinbar to Uniontown, some parties from Dunbar refused to pay fare. Tro.ible arose between the men and Conductor Tucker Hunt. A shot was fired. Hartman was wounded and died some time afterw ard of his injuries. The man who did the shooting, James Watt, is now serving a term of four years and a half iu the penitentiary, having been convicted of voluntary inanslaugh ter. Death of Mrs. John X. Holderbanm. Mr. Julia C. Holderlutuiit is dead. When the news passed from lip to lip Wednesday morning there was a general expression of sorrow. The death or this estimable ladv and beloved mother had been anticipated for some days and the members of her household were measura bly prepared to receive the grim visitor who would rob them of their best friend and conns lor. Her last momenta were as peaceful and calm as was the long life she had spent among the people of this place, and as becomes the strong character of a truly christian woman. The watch ers at her ldside thought she slept even atter the vital spark had tied. Deceased was a daughter of Major Joseph Iiiihoff, a prominent mn keeper and politician of Somerset, and was born on Octoler Hi. Is-- Her father w as elect ed Sheriff of the county- ls2H nd subse quently was the nominee of iiis party for Congress against Charles Ogle. Her mother was a daughter of the late Peter Hetlley, of Berlin. In l!41 she became the w ife or John M. Holderbaum, then an aspiring young merchant or this place, who later developed into one of the fore most business men of the county, stie was always proniineut in social and church affairs, having been consistent and devout Lutheran from girlhood, and without effort she won the friendship and a luiiration of all with whom she came in ontacu Her sphere, however, washer h tine, and here her sterling charaer was infused into the hearts of her chil dren. She was a thoughtful listener, a wise counselor and a devoted, mother. Mrs. Holderbaum is survived by her busliand and by two sons, t harles P., who is associated in business with bis father; James B.t the successful bard ware and farm implement dealer; and by four daughters, Mrs. K. V. Cromwell, Mrs. Rebald Megahan. of Lincoln, eu.; Misses Lucy E. and Darl F. She is also survived by a brother and two sisters, all of whom reside in Lincoln, Xeb., and by half-sister, Mrs. Jacob S.

On Tuesday, July 14th, Aaron Shaffer, of Shade township, whose home is le- tweeu Hillsboro and llooversviUe, sold wo hundred acres of cal Knd to Ed ward J. Berwind for ?I,0J.1 cash. The deal was in ule by J. S.

The house was thoroughly ransacked, but the visitors did not secure any money w hat ever. Fire U Itnaer low mhlp . . About 10 o'clock Wodnesday night Jere J. Shaffer's large barn, locuted near SU James' Lutheran Church, in Jenuer town ship, was struck by lightning and burn ed to the ground Mr. Shaffer bad almost all of bis grain in the larn, and had finished hauling his hay from the harvest field to the barn on ly yesterdiy. The barn, which was two stories high, was a frame structure forty five feet wide and about one hundred feet long. Mr. Shaffer's wagons, buggies and farming implements, along with the grain and hay, were entirely detr yel. Five bead of horses and six head of cat tle were taken from tha biildin; while It was in full blaze. The barn was insured In the Farmer's Fire Insurance Company, but the amount stated in the policy is not known. There was no insurance on the contents. The loss will reach several thousand dollars. Quite a Korel Cue. Quite a unique case was decided by Judge Mcllvaine, of the TVasningtou county courts, last week. It was that of V. S. Woods vs. Isabella Sheets. Woods bought two lots at Charleroi from Mrs. Sheets and built on them, as be supposed, but it turned out that he made a mistake and Isiilt on two lots that Peter Xesbon, of Manor Station, owned. He refused to pay for the honses. allow them to lie le moved or sell the lots, and Woods sued Mrs. Sheets.' The court decided that, in the absence of any convenant in the deed that the lots staked off are the same as those sold. Woods can not recover; that all he could recover would be the purchase money of the lot, and not for any subsequent im provement; but that, as be still has the two lots purchased, Xoa. (34 and 630, be has no standing at all, and judgment la given for the defendant. It is certainly a very peculiar case, and Mr. Woods has austained loss in a novel manner. Hilton T eder'e God Work. Mr. Milton Yoder, a young Amisbman, some three weeks since, took eight little Baltimore girl waifs for two weeks' fresh air outing at his pleasant Summit township farm. The youngsters were pinched ami white when they arrived. but after chasing butterflies up and down country lanes gathering daisies and but tercttps, riding on the hay wagotl and di eting upon the purest and most whole some of food for fourteen days they were as brown as the berries that cluster in the corners of Mr. Voder's well kept fields. The two women wJo are employed to look after the domestic affairs of the Vo der farm house were unselfish iu the, at tention shown the little strangers and when the time arriv.-d for them to return to their homes in the heated city there was genuine sorrow on the part both. Mr. Yoder, too, w ho had spent many happy hours to the detriment of bis farm work w itb the little strangers, let ting them tag at his coat tails and ride on his broad shoulders, was loth to hear them Bay "good-bye," and finally after eight little lunch baskets had been pre pared and eight little boxes all contain ing the same uumber of red apples had been filled, be decided to accompany bis charges on the way as far as Cumberland. At Cumberland the helplessness of the tots appealed so strongly to him that be concluded he would ecirt lbtn to tbeir homes, which he did, and w here he was warmly received and generously treated by the officers r the Fresh Air Society. Saturday Mr. Yoder returned to his borne, accompanied by eight other little Baltimore waifs, and by thirty-two of their playmates, all of whom are now en- Joying a visit of two weeks at farm bous es In the neigbb.irh.ssl of Meyepw'alo and Stoyestown. Fif tie Artie t Training Here. Frank Dwyre is the name of the tall. handsome, athletic young man who takes morning and evening runs of five miles every day on the various roads leading from this place. In addition to rhis exer cise he punches a sand bag, skjps rope. runs up and down stairs at breakneck speed, swings Indian clubs and dumb bells and boxes with anyone he can in duce to put on the gloves with him. He, also, takes a cold plunge two or three times a day and bus bis limbs and body rubbed w itu coarse towels until the skin becomes a fresh pink. He i.ever smokes, chews, or takes a drink, and lives on the plainest kind of fare. Mr. Dwyre Is a pugilist by profession and be is at present in training for a "mill," scheduled to come off in Septemlicr, at Richmond, Va. His only diversion is a game of checkers. and be can be found any evening in one ofthe hotels o tli cos fortifying a "king row. Teople who have teen Mr. Dwyre have len impressed by his appearance. His clean shaved face ornamented by a gracefully curved mustache, which only faintly conceals a pair ot smiling red lips gives no indication ofthe fistic artist; but when the oliservcr oliwervcs his erect car riage, broad shoulders, stoeny neck and thick wrists he naturally wonders what the man's vocation is. Xo one would suggest from his appearance that he had ever entered a prize ring. Mr. Dwyre bus been the victor in a numlsr of n.itable ring contests, but an intuitive feeling comes over all who look at him that he would not Ik a safe man to run against. Asked his reasons for coming to Somer set Mr. Dwyre replied that he was seek ing for high ground and that be Irfdieves that that the pure air of this altitude is more invigorating than the atmosphere of low er countries. I want to get myself jn condition for my winter's work," ho continued, "and I selected Somerset to train without ever having seen the place, only having heard it casually mentioned by a stranger. I wish you would any in your paper that I would like to have a go" at either John Finnegan, or W llll m Vensel, the big carpenter, of Pitts burg, lioth of whom have ieen chasing around the Post Office, in that city, talk ing fight. I have never seen either ofthe men, but that makes no difference. I'll oover any anion nt they put up." Dwyre is a native of the ''Sunflower State" but is not a "Pop." He has fitted up training quarters at the Commercial Hotel, where be has agreed to instruct a class in the art of self defense.

Just now w hen the ravages ofthe army worm are beginning to be felt in this im mediate vicinity the discovery of a Lu rerue druggist of a process for their ex termination is of general as well as con siderable interest. The army worm ap peared in Luzerne county some lime since and bis ravage have I eon quite widespread. Recently be attacked the grass on the lawn of a Mrs. Harris and was having a veritable picnic But just when his happiness was mut complete be met bis fate. In a drug store the clerks gathered about a hundred of the worms, and began experimenting with them not in a war, however, that proved entertaining to the worm. The clerks found that by adding a teaspoonful of creoline to one pint of water, and giving the worm a batb In it, it produced altu.st sudden death. Tho news spread and all the people of Lucerne, who were holding receptions for the worms hastened to load up with ere dine. This they pi i'-e 1 in sprinkling pots and the lawns and gardens in w hichtho worm was holding his levee with the result til it t!i-ii of tho wor.ns w hich were not killed wore con tent to beat a ratrout on the double quick. Luzerne is now rid of the pest. Cre iline is said to lie harmless ami does not injure grass or vegetables. So Hot Fail to Bead This. The not Special ist, Dr. M.

The 5.40 p. in. express train, on the Reading railroad, bound down, while moving at a high rate of speed, crashed into an excursion train on the West Jer sey railroad, at the crossing on the "Meadows," just outside of Atlantic City, X. J. about half-past fi, Thursday evening. As nearly as can be ascertained forty two persons were killed and about eighty injured. Ofthe killed all but two were ou the excursion train, which carried a party from Bridgeton and Salem. It is said the Reading train bad the 'right of way," but that the signals were set so as to justify the engineer of the ex cursion train in moving on the crossing.

The protracted rain of the past tew weeks has caused the loss of thousands of bushels of wheat to the farmers of this county.

A Eealiitio Bomanoe of Somerset la Which a Hnmber of Prominent Baiinei I Xen Take a very Contpicooni Fart. "Miss Summers Polly I I er dare I" But the speaker took a header over bashfulness, only to hear a sweet "Yes, Charley. ' "Can I aspire to er to that is " Again a hq4! into silence, followed by an encouraging "Yes, Charley." "Ob, if I might only hope to er to Another failure of language. It was seemingly a hopeless case, and might have been, only for a demure Charlev. I have said 'yes twice, and if you mean it, I mean it too, and" And to this day that y.mng man will insist that ho popped the question. All this hamtencd away "down east," and it wasn't long before there was a weddine. Xot much longer before there cams a letter from Pollv's Uncle Josh, out here in Somerset county who wrote ef fusively of his delight at the exhibition or what he railed VriL" and be nroposod that if the young people would locate a1 Somerset he would start them up in lile, as a w.Hldimr cifL Of course they accep ted, and were sMn bidding tbeir friends adieu. A few weeks subsequent t the above conversation a travel-stained party ar rive!. Our friend, I'uele Josh, was in charge and he led the party straightway torn hotel. "The Hotel Vannear," said he, "is a typi.ral Keystone hotel of the best class. I have known C. S. Vannear, the proprietor, for years and ho is mine host after mine own heart. A thorough Isisiness man endowed with that delight ful intuition that makes a guest feel at home, comfortable, contented, and in mighty good luck. The house is one of convenience; the apartments are well furnished; the cuisine all that a superior chef and unlimited orders on the mar ket can make it- I have engaged moms here for you to occupy until your own bouse js in readiness." "After breakfast," said the old man, I am ready to go buy your outfit. To expedite matters I have ordered a car riage from Isaac Simpson, our enterpris ing livery man." When the handsome carriage, with elalsirate trappings and praucing horses drew up in front of the Hotel Vanuear, Polly declared it the "finest turnout she had ever seen." Yes," replied Uncle Josh, "the three S's, Sieed, Safety and Style Is Simp sou's coat of arms. So, young folks. w hen you want to take a drive, either for business or pleasure, go to him for a rig every time." It was iu this stylisu turn out that the rounds of the city were made. Where to?" asked the polite driver as the trio entered the ouveyauee, Uncle Josh looked askance at his wards. "Oh, goodness knows there's lots to buy," re marked Polly. "Then suppose we see bout our house and lot first," quoth Charles. "I've already provided Tor the lot," said Uncle Josh, "but we must see alsmt the building. The lst people to talk to in regard to the contra, -t are Granger A Stoddard, w ho are the princi pal contractors here. They have put uji many of the handsomest buildings in town, and may lie relied uion to do a first-class job. They'll do it quick and do it well, in the bargain. It's a pleasure to deal with Granger V Stoddard, for their greatest aim Is to give satisfaction to every customer. And. by the way. Mr. Stoddard does slate roofing, and I'll have hi"! slate roof the house; it looks lietter and lasts longer." of wrnnm it didn't take long to arrange lor the bouse. "Having provided you w ith a cage for the bird," said Uncle Josh, "now the first thing w e'll look after w ill lie the nir nishings for it," Hereupon Tolly ener getically declared that she bad heard so much about Cf II, Cotfrotb, the furniture dca)er, that she hal decide to go there. The result was tljat they were ushered: into such a bew ildering display that the girl was at first at a Joss how to select Hutshosoou yielded to the seductive ness of a magnificent parlor suite, a led room set iu oak, antique finish, that would do credit to old Antiquity him self. To this she added a diuing-room set with all accessories, an easy rocker for Uncle Josh; and didn't forget a most convenient and ornamental writing desk for "Hubby" Charles, 'A pretty good start," said the old man, 'and now we'll go to J. B. Holder bau m's big hardware anil stove store." Hare Polly's housewifely instincts bad full play in marvels of kitchen apparat us. "There is not an establishment in the onunty that carries a more compre hensive st. of household furnishings." remarked Uucle Josh. "Every possible piece of kitchen furniture, from a tin dip per to a cooking range is here in all styles ami variety." If Polly fails to ac complish wonders in the culinary art, t will not be for want of superior cooking utensils, for she purchased a queen Cin derella cook stovo with all equipments needed in a well regulated kitchen, be side au elegant air tight heater for the parlor. 'Let's see 1 promised you a gold watch, didn't I," queried Undo Josh of Polly, "and Xeff .V Caselieer's is the place to get one cheap." Entering the popular jew elry store the old man pro- ceeded to have Mr. Cwebeur, w ho is an expert optician, fit his eyes to a pair of speus,' so that he ooiild better see the many lieautiful things. He gallantly ac quitted himself of tho promise, and then directed Polly's attention to the superior stock of silverware carried by the bouse. "There Is no other such house iu town," said the old man, "and I will guarantee tho quality to Ik the vory best. Pick out your family clock while here," he added. "Xeff A Casclieer carry a magnificent line. Don't forget another fact, Chai ley," he continued, "il ever that old tur nip of yonrn breaks down, remember these folks are expert doctor on sick watches." Tho old man explained that this firm had another nice store at Rock wood. "Halt!" commanded Uncle Josh, as the party came In front of Dr. J. M. Iuth er's drug store. "Walk right In." "Why, Uncle, we're not sick, and" "Guess I know that, but I suspect it won't l long liefore this young man be gins to take an Interest in matters of par egoric and" "U-n-c-l-e!" "Well, go in anyway, Polly may find some toilet ar ticles she wants." Sure enough, before leaving she was loaded down with combs, brushes, face powders and ounces upon ounces of fine imported perfumes. "Don't forget," added Uncle Josh, "to come here with your prescriptions, as Dr. Louthcr and bis assistant are compe tent pharmacists and use pure and relia ble drugs." He then iuvited them to a delicious treat at the soda fountain. Pol ly indulged in a profuse, but just compli ment to the superior quality of drinks served. At this point, somewhat to the cou fu sion of Charley, the old man indulged in a half serious criticism of bis personal appearance. "You are decidedly off style for a townsman," said he, "and we'd, bettet go and see Knepper fc Good about some new duds.? After Charles had fitted himself in a neat suit, from the piles of fashionable garments that cover the table of this extensively stock ed establishment. Uncle Josh declared; "Now you look likt a newly married roan." Before leaving, having found goods and prices irresistible, Charles al so invested in a complete outfit of gents' furnishings, from the late style hat to a dosen shirts. Knepper A Good are not to be undersold in the state. After this visit. Uncle Josh suggested a resort to some place of refreshment At the table tbe old man waxed philosophi cal. "Xever neglect your larder," said he. "That important adjunct to, house: Highest of all in Leavening Power. ABSOUUTELY PURE keeping controls 'masculine temticr. To that end you must patronize a grocer on whom you can depend for honest goods. Through a long term of years I have found Cook A Beerita perfectly reliable. You will find them careful dealers, al ways fully stocked with every possible thing in the line of staple and fancy, gro ceries, fresh and first class; no shelf worn goods there, while, tho prices are down to brass tacks. "By the way," remarked Uu.-li Josh, as they reached the street. "I must run into the First Xational Bank and get an other check book. Come along with me and get acquainted with Mr. II. M. Berkley for, of course, you will do Isisi n ess with him, and it is always more pleasant to Is personally acquainted with the teople you do laisiness with. This bank is as solid as the lvs of the universe, and has a strong working cap ital. You will find them ever ready to extend any accommodations compati ble with business principles." "I declare. Uncle," exclaimed Charley. "There goes a handsome phaeton; I must have one like that for the girl." "Get it right here," said the old man. "You see our friend, J. B. Holderbaum also con ducts a carriage repository here, that for variety and excellent of stock can not be beaten. He sells surreys, carriages, buggies and phaetons of leading makes and styles, and is satisfied with a moder ate profit, too. Then while you are bak ing at the buggies I'll make myself a present of some farm implements. No body in the county keeps a better grado of farm machinery than J. 11. Holder baum. "And as you are going to keep a horse," continued t he old man, ''of course, you'll need harness. The loins horse milliner of this section, to my notion, is M. E. Iien- nison. He uses only first-class material and gives personal supervision to the minutest detail of manufacture. There is nothing in harness that can not be had of him heavy and light, single and double, plain and fancy, work aud bug gy harness. He has all them in stock, besides every other kind of turf goods imaginable and the finest lot of lap rol.cn and whips you ever laid your eyes uj on." After a visit to the harness store Charley said he thought "if a man could n't get satisfied it would be his own fault," and ho expressed himself pleased with Mr. Denuison's candor aud fairness. "Yes, and I must have an album. Un cle Josh," quoth Polly, "and-" "Yes, and a Bible with a reasonably big family register," interrupted the old man, "so we'll go over to Ch.-is. II. Fisher's Ixn.k store, l ou II find many article's indis pensable for tbe parlor as well as the li brary there, and as for variety, Fisher has an uuoqualed stock." So here Pol ly's purchases included miscellaneous books, fncy stationery, all the latest agonies, bric-a-brac, of all manner, for the centre table, house decorations and such, making handsome presents for all of ber kinsfolk. Polly remarked to the generous old uncle, "Why, I don't know when to quit buying; Mr. Fisher sells such uis goods, and so cheap, too." "Oh?" ejaculated Polly, as they halt. si Isifore a show window, "what a perfectly lovely slipper." "Yes," said Uncle Josh, tjeo. P. Stein .V Co's. sUs-k can't lie equaled in style and extent iu this sec tion. io in, look it over ami get ac quainted." It might have been policy not to have extendo.1 that invitation, had not U'U'lo Josh know n w hat wise econo my it is to trade at Stein A Co's. fur Polly found goods and prices so seductive that she got an outfit front a pretty slipper to a handsome walking boot, ("hurley in vested iu geutV floe shoes, while Uncle Josh indulged in a stout farm boot, with rubbers for the crowd. X'o one needing footwear can resist tbe styles and prices offered by Stein A Co. "And in the matter of insurance," he continued, "that is of importance. You will want a builder's risk on your new house, and tire, lightning and tornado insuraiice on your farm property; then you can't do a inore sensible or satisfic tory thing than to give your wife a paid up policy iu life insurance. My old friend W. W. K liable, np stairs, here, not only has lines of the aolidest and best companies, but he is an expert and trust worthy underwriter. He has several companies, all of which belong to the old reliable category, lieing well known for tbeir prompt and satisfactory adjustment of losses. "Oh, aay, Uncle," exclaimed Polly, "where can I go Hr dry good-? This dress is hardly suitable, I must 'admit." "Well, my girl. If yoti want to select from one of the most popular establish ments in the city, I will direct you to Mrs. A. E. Uhl, who carries a st-jck o dress goods that for variety aud re.tl val ue is seldom seen outside the largest me tropolitan cities. She carries all the 'a - est weaves in fashionable dress go xlsai d y. si are sure to be guidod right in yo ir selection. You will find ber pleasai t to deal with, and her employes polite and expert, wbilo tbe prices can not bo dup licated." "I would like to make you a.-quainted with Dr. J. S. IcMillart my dentist frientL t'o," sail th oil mm, "If you ever have to supplement your natural teeth." "Ugh! Don't you mcntio:t ful.su teeth to me," erie.1 Polly. Til never carry 'pearly lies' in my mouth if I go toothless." "Oh. as for that," laughed Uncle J.h, "If you'll only consult a good dentist in time, you can save the catastrophe. Dr. J. S. McMillan, for in stance, is wonderfully expert in saving natural teeth, and he has the skill and every mechanical appliance necessary to do his work w ith the least discomfort to his patrons. --' "The next place 1 wish to take you. children, is to W. H. Reitz's flour mill." he said.. "Your introduction to the town would not be half complete with out. Talk about flour in this section that can come np to 'Pri jo of Somerset.' It's made from choice selected wheat, and bread made Trom it does not become dry and stale, but retains moisture and nat ural flavor of the wheat for several days. All good housewives use 'Pride of Som erset.' Then as to feed, this mill' is headquarters for that. Everything, from gulden oats down to corn cobs; serves customers with promptness and dispatch. I've been dealing with W. II. Reilz for a long time; sell him all my grain and for good results, I tell you he is a good mail to tie to." "How about tbe wall paper. Uncle," interrupted Polly. . "I'm going to be mighty particular about that, because nice paper goes a great way in making a home look attractive." "That's right. my girl; you've got a level head; come right along, and we'll visit J. B. Snyder, at Snyder's Art Store, where you w ill find pretty wall paper iu abundance and marked . at wouderfully low prices," Polly was soon. reveling in a perfect ely- sium of beautifully dnsigned wall paper of which she selected several handsome patterns; after which her attention was at tracted to tbe many nice pictures and ele gant frames which are displayed at Sny der's Art Store. Her liberal order sug gested her thorough appreciation. While Uncle Josh was pondering where to go next, Polly suddenly asked: "Uncle, where can I find the leading millinery establishment?" "Just a few doors further on," remarked Uncle JosU, "and we will visit Mrs. K.. B. Coif roth, who, by the way, has on hand one of the poiiipletost stocks of millinery to be found Latest U. S, Gov't Report. in the city. V'u can get what you want there, the latest styles and lowest prices being their motto. Mrs. Coll roth's ex perience guarantees that when you have purchased of her you have tbe thing ac cording to fashion and a satisfaction of knowing that your work comes from the hand of a competent artist. In a few hours there never was a happier girl than Polly. Her new hat was a dream. "Ijiw sakes!" suddenly exclaimed Un cle Josh, "all this trading and shopping 'round town has caused me to forget ono of the greatest essentials to future exist enee. I have heard it said that newly married folks could live on love and s.s-nery, Isit an old man of experience knows Is-lter your table w.sild lk slim without bread; it's the 'st.tff of lifo you know. Polly, yoti must meet L W, Brelim, the baker. His bread, pi., cak es and nick-nacks are conceded by all to be the finest on earth. Remember, Charley, there is no use of your Viotsy tootsy' bothering herself much alsxit baking, so long as there is a good baker in town like Mr. Brehiu. When you give your reception, call on him for the good things sure." "Yes, and while we are on this im portant topic of gastronomies, we must not forget meat. It goes hand and baud with bread. Now to locate a meat mar ket where you can get fresh, wholesome meats at all times, Zeigler t Parson is the firm .to supply you. This is the boss meat market iu the city, and is popular with every lssly who is particular to have the tsttt. The reason for this is all because they aro very careful in the so le, -ti in of stock and get the freshest of everything and keep nothing but the very best. To keep jour 'Hubby' in a good humor, Polly, trade at Zttigler A Parson's market every time." "By the way. Uncle, is there a g,xl horseshoer in town?" asked Charles, "you know how particular I am aliout my mare, Kitty?" "Jes so, Jes so," re plied Uncle Josh, "and you shan't have any botcher about her either. Well, there is only one first class horseshoeing firm in town, according to my opinion, and that Chas, Wt-imer A Co. They un derstand ail about tbe po.;u liar construc tion of a horso's foot, just what kind of a shoe is required, and how to make and put it on. I tell you it don't pay to have a man monkey with a good horse's foot when he don't know anything about it; but I tell you Cbas. Weimer A Co. are all right, and they are first class, all -round blacksmiths in the bargain." "Xow," cried the old gontloman, "now for a picture of this crowd, in good old fashion. We'll go to the photograph gallery, and Somerset has a good one, that of II. E. (iasteiger. Her pictures are wonderful in fidelity and finish. I want one full-sied photo for my study and some small ones for my friends. Miss Oasieizcr has the soul of a true artist; all her work is a lalior of love, in which sle will not stop short of perfection, and as she is fam ius for sucee-tHful enlarging, I want to give you a life slse representa tion of 'yours truly.'" (Uncle Josh's picture may be seen at Oasteiger's gal lery any time.) Enroute to their home the party called at the II rralp office. "You'll want the news every week." remarked Uncle Josh, "and this is tbe favorite paper here I'll subscribe." Upon summing up tbe wonderful events of the day Polly began to volubly express thanks. "You have b-xight us everything," she exclaimed. "Only one thing," replied Uncle Josh, reflectively, "but I can remedy that. C. II. Fisher always has a nice line of them and you can get one whenever you wan't it; I'll pay for the Iwst." " W-h-y," exclaimed Polly with great surprise, "Uncle, what can iti?" "Well, its a baby buggy, and " But Polly had fainted. Soekwood Wine From Xeyertdale. When the Meyersdale contingent were leiving the grounds for the depot, home wird bound, Saturday afternoon, "Jim inie" Hartzell was heard remark to "Heddy," a lad from Meyersdale, some taller than "Jimmie" but not so volumi nous in chest expansion, that Meyersdale wo ild better drop off at Oarretl and learn to play base ball liefore venturing down th s way again. "Reddy" replied : "Xow, Jimmie, don't swell up too much before you come to Meyersdale for we'll be look ing a: you wheu you come to play ball. We'll do you dirt, we will." "Just tell them that you saw me," retorted Jimmie. The game was a scientific exhibition throughout and many brilliant plays were made. Meyersdale contested every inch of debatable ground, I sit the Hub boys, buoyod and inspired by the efficient pitching of Bruce Fee, got back into their old time form and did almost error-l-.'-n team work and at times Kitted with a vengeance.which had a telling effect upon the Met. Meyersdale was also in prime condition and did good, honest work throughout, but Fee kept pnzzling them inning after inning, and this was perlnqis fi tir greatest barrier to overcome. Fee struck out 18 men, and says he wasn't in very good form either. He also did some effective and timely hitting. The Rock wo 1 boys generally knocked out sure bit, tirand stand plays were made at di.l'erent stages of the game, notable in stances being a hard liner catch Wtweeu first and secoud by A. B.
