Frank Thomson, who wa last Thurs
day electeJ President of the Pennsylva
nia railroad to succeed the late (ieorge B.
UobfcrU, is a son of Alexander Thomson,
who at one time was president judge of
tlve Sixteenth Judicial District, of which
Somerset county was a part. Judge
Thomson resided at Cham hers burg,
Franklin county, also being iu the bh
District, and as he occupied the bench
before the constructions of railroads in
this section he was com pel lei to Jouruey
to the various county seats in his district
quarterly for the purpose of holding
court. He usually came to Somerset via
the Ligonier pike, stopping over night at
Stoyestown, where he formed the ac
quaintance of a Miss rabam, w hom be
afterwards married and who thus became
the step mother of the present Pennsyl
vania President. The Graham family
was one of tbe most prominent in tbe
county, and although many dest-r-miants
of the family still reside here, we believe
there is not one of the name at pre tut a
resident of the county.

A Wolf Killed ia Lincoln Towmhip.
John Queer, of near F.die post office,
w-as the happiest man in Somerset ooitn
ty last Thursday morning when be visit
ed the big rocks, two or three miles from
his home on the laurel Hill Mountain,
for the purpose of examining a trap he
had Imited the preceding afternoon, to
find a large timber wolf securoly held by
out of hin front paws iK-tween the steel
teeth of the trap. M r. Queer, who is past
eighty-one years of ngc, is still a steady
marksman and bringing his trusty rifle
into Misition ho despatched the "var
ment," The wolf weighed IK) pounds
and measured six feet from the tip of bis
nose to the end of bis tail. The venera
ble hunter carefully removed the hide
and stuffed it with straw ami next morn
ing brought it into the IIkrai.p ofllee
w here it was viewed by a large uum!er
of local sportsmen. The premium for
killing a wolf iu Pennsylvania is 10.
Mr. C. S. Yanuear purchased the hide
aud w ill send it to a taxidermist to be
mounted when he will place il on exhi
bition iu his hotel otlicu.
K"potts have been current in regajrd to
a pack of wolves infesting the mountain
above LMie fr a number of years past,
and although farmers averred that their
sheep and hogs had been carried away
by these ferocious animals, few persons
were willing to credit their statements.
Mr. Queer says, however, that the story
is true, and that he has wi-u a pack con
taining as many as a dozen wolves the
present winter. Ho says the animals
are very wild and rarely alford a shot for
a hunter. A wolf of the same species wait
shot iu the same neighborhood alsmi four
years agi.

years the name of Parker has been prom
inently identified with the mercantile in

on the corner at present Mvttpied by the

Jfajor KcZinley'i Memory.
One fact is devclopsd in connection
with the throng of visitor-t from all parts
of the United Slates at Canton, and it is
that Major McKinley daily astonishes his
callers by the bread'h, variety, freshness,
njinutene'.s and accuracy of his informa
tion concerning parties, factions, politi
cians, business and political conditions
throughout the country. He has a mem
ory as Mr. Blaine's for men, and an even
more serviceable one for facts aud cur
rent information of interest. A western
senator who was iu Canton a day or two
ag ) sail :
"I slopped oiT in Canton to acquaint
Major McKinley with the peculiar condi
tion of atfairs in a political way that ex
ists in one part of my state. The circum
stances w hich I wished to relate to biin
were so unusual, so intricate and so little
known that I imagined they could by no
means have come to his knowledge. To
my surprise I found that be was more
thoroughly informed than I upon the
subject, and that he gave me fresh infor
mation ami new points of view that were
as valuable'as they were surprising. He
seems to be able at w ill to recall and to
state the sajient points of the iolitiid sit
uation in any part of the country, and to
pass the men w ho make those conditions
in rapid review before his mind." Fran
cis B. Ioomis in 2f. Y. Tribune.
The Arbitration Tieity.
Despite fhe clamor of those who are
ready to ;,-rce to anything that masquer
ades under the name of an arhitiation
treaty, it is hardly likely that the propo
sition for a treaty arra- ged lietwren Sec
retary Olney and Lord Salisbury, to sub
mit to arbitration any and all disputes
!clw ecu this country and Great Britain,
will not e ratified by the senate w ith
out careful scrutiny of its provisions.
In, bed it is highly prolmble that the
treaty w ill not le ratified in its present
shape, aud that the British government
must make eome concessions liefore it
will meet tbe views of the committee on
foreign relations.
There is a wide difference of opinion
as to the construction to be placed upon
certain passages of the treaty. Some of
the leading senators. Senator Davis
among the ntnnler, fear that it would
nullify the Monroe doctrine, feucrc-tary
Olney claims that it would not, and ex
Senator P.dmunds, another able author
ity, agrees with him. When able men
thus construe tho treaty differently,
it is evident that it is defective
and should be amended. Why not
have it stated iu the treaty specifically
that the Monroe doctrine is not nullified
or impaired by lis provisions? Great
Britain has a habit of denying the mean
ing of plain language in treaties, and he
would tie certain to claim that this treaty
nullified tbe Mouroe doctrine, unless tbe
' contrary is stated very clearly.

Siltribution of Fit h.
Persons w ho wish to secure fish from
tho State for breeding puristse or are in
terested in tho matter would do well to
read the rules which the Pennsylvania
Commissioner of Fisheries have made
for the distribution of the same.
To begiu with, the Stale has been di
vided into six districts, and all applica
tions for blanks for fish must .be sen. to
tho Commissioner of the district iu which
the applicant resides. The application,
when received, must bo indorsed by the
Senator or Representative of the district,
after which il is to bo forwarded to the
Commissioner, who will approve and
then forward to the hatchery to be filled.
Cambria, Blair, Somerset, and Bedford

UcKinley Will Go Slow.
Senator elect Mason, of Chicago, who
paid a visit to Mr. McKinley, at Canton,
Ohio, a rew days ago says that the Presi
dent cks-t intends to tnakeollice distribu
tion as small a part of his duties as he
possibly can. This is not altogether to
l ie satisfaction of Mr. Mason, who called
on Major McKinley to push the claims of
suneof his Illinois f iends for various
Federal offices. Major McKiuley gave
him to understand thai be would be very
si w in making changes, and that under
no circumstances would ho consider the
filling of minor appointments until after
a special session of Congress had been
held.
According to Mr. Mason, Major Mc
Kinley is determined to carry out bis
program of providing a reveuuo measure
that will yield enough revenue to pay
the running expenses of the government
liefore he gives a thought to another sub
ject. The tariff bill which is now being
prepared by tho ways and means com
mittee will bo an administration incisure
and it is proposed to rush it through the
House of Representatives in thirty days
or less. It will reach the Senate about
the middle of April, and it is expected to

therefore, liefore Major McKinley will

the special session of Congress, however,
the President will have abundant time
to take up appointments, aud he pro

Sbamokin, Pa., Feb. 3. Breaking In
to tho home of Mrs. Mary Klanskie to
serve a bench warrant this morning.
Constable Elias Gottshall climlied over
a barricade in the seoond story, when tbe
woman emptied a bucket of scalding wa
ter on his head.
While he Htood in a dazed condition slip
rushed at him with an ax, knocking him
down and cutting his bead wide open.
She then struck him agaiu, hut the blade
of the ax grazed bis neck.
The officer knew that be would lie kill
ed if he did not act quickly, and despite
bis awful wound he crawled to the wo
mau's feet and upset ber.
A desperate contest ensued for posses
sion of the ax, aud Gottshall, with the
aid of Peter Sutiierdny, made the infur
iated woman prisoner.
Later on she was takeu into court, and
Judge Savidge fined her ?100 for con
tempt, and instructed the Grand Jury to
find a bill against her for assault and bat
tery, with iutcnt to kill jotlshall.
One month ago Mrs. Klanskie was ar-re-ted
for perjury, and bound over for
court. When the officers served the war
rant at that trial she crawled under her
house and defied tbe police qntil hunger
and cold caused ber to capitulate.
Something for Kothing.
To get something for nothing is contra

you want a Range, that is a good baker
and a perfect roaster, try the Cinderella;
it is sold at a fair price, and will give you
good service. It lightens labor and les

Looking Through a 3Ian.
Thomas A. Kdisou, says a late dispatch,
is soon to startle the world with another
wonderful discovery. He now proposes
to make the human body transparent.
In a word, we shall one of theso days lit
erally "see through a man."
If Kdisou's expectations are realizod
this result can lie reached by an antemor
tciu diagnosis, and the secret of tho hu
man "prison house" disclosed before
breath leaves the Imdy.
The Wizard has discovered a new
chemical combination in bis laboratory
at Llewellyn Park that promises to revo
lutionize surgery, and even tho broader
domain of science. He Iris succeeded in
manufacturing a number of new crystals
which oirer great possibilities in connec
tion with the 11 Horoscope. Several of them
hold out the hope that physicians may
sooner or later see the exact position and
condition of the interna! organs of their
patients.
Less than a year ago it was thought a
remarkable thing to see the bones of the
hand. To-day Mr. Kdisou's experi
ments have been so successful that he can
discount the revelations of the best X ray
photograph made a couple of mouths ago.
And the probabilities are that the physi
cian of the future, by the aid of the llu-or-ope,
w ill tie able to tell at a glance
whether or not a man is in good health
and free from bono formations, cancers,
tumors and the like.
Moreover, with the new crystals a
man's eyes may le securely bandaged,
and yet he can discern ohjects iu a room.
So that in cases of blindness, where the
visual organs are not entirely destroyed,
there is a chance for the sightless to see
dimly under certain circumstances.
Mr. Kdisou wrote out the following
statement of what be bad accomplished ;
"I first purchased iu this country aud
I hi rope all the different chemicals known
or sold in the trade which I did not al
ready possess. These wc-ro all tried in
the tluorscope; and only one was equal in
sensitiveness to tuugstate of calcium.
"Since then, however, my chemuts
have been making combinations not pro
curable elsewhere. Thirty new suits tan.
ces per day have been the average pro
ducts. These have been subjected to the
X ray, and their fluorescing power meas
ured. "I have found one chemi.-al which is
more sensitive to the X ray than any
heretofore known. I will keep on in the
work, however, until there is little hope
of finding anything Isitter, although the I
chances of discovery can never be ex
hausted, tho possible chemical combina
tions running up into the hundreds of
millions."
